The following bill, introduced into tbe Oregon legisla'.uro at the session of 1891, and tbe rote by which it wad defeated in tlie Binti senate, are juit now interesting to all railroad employe io the stele of Oregon. It in an follows: Senate bill No 200 introduced by Mr Weatbor.'ord, and read first time February A, 1891. A HILL For an act entitled an act to ex tend and regulate the liability of railroad companies to make com pilation for personal Injuries suflered by employe in their ser vice, Deit enacted by the Lefislative Assembly of the ritato of Oreg n: Section 1. Every railroad com pany organized or doing busines In the itate, shall be liable for all damage done to any employe of auch company in consequonoe of any negligence of its agents, or by any misunderstanding of its en gineers or other employes, or any person sustaining such damage. Section 2. Every contract here inafter made to change or limit the liability of any railroad company, to any of its employes for injuries, shall be null and void. Section 3. As there is argent need for an act to protect the em ployes on railroads in this state from injuries incident to such ser vice, this act shall take cflect from and after its approval by the gov ernor. On page 772 of the senate journal for '91 may be found the following record of the final disposition of the bill as follows: Senate bill No 200 coming up for third reading, was read a third time. Tho question being "Shall the bill pass?" The roll was called and the vote was: Aye Messrs Dla:kuian, Crosno, Fullerton Hatch, Hittou, llirsch, Loouey, Myers, Haley, VEATCH, Watkins and Weatlierford 12 Nav Messrs Cogswell, Crom, Dodeon, Fulton, Mackey, Matlock, Moore, TONGUE, Wait, Willis and Mr President 11. Absent Messrs Cars in, Came ron, Eakin, Norval and Sinclair 5. Not Voting Mr dates 1. So the bill failed to pass. Senator Robert Veatch. who voted "aye" on this just and mer torious bill, is now the Union can didate for congress in the first Ore gon district, and Senator Thomas II Tongue, who voted "no" is his opponent on the republican ticket Voter, take your choice, Imtween the champion of the laboring man, and the pliant tool of the corpora tions. m i i - .Lou TWO SIDE TO "FUSIO.V Fusion In Oregon is complete The Gold Democrats or rather the Cleveland Democrats, and McKin- ley Uepublioans have fused and will support the ticket nominated at Astoria. The llryau Democrats the Peoples party and the Silver Republicans are well uuited on good platform for a common in terest. Tho Union of the Cleveland Democrats and the McKinley R publicans forms the party of the trusts. All the advocates of tho single gold standard should o right tueo. Opposed to them are all the parties who are fighting the trusts, all the parties that are fight for the rights of the people. The head of the trust ticket is firm believer in trusts and aggrega tions of capital. T T Geer when on the stump iu 1S90 argued at great length against all those per sons who agitate and discuss the rights and privilege of the com mon people. He said that the com mon people should "NOT ANTAG ONIZE THE RICH. PROSPER ITY TO THE RICH MEANS PROSPERITY TO THE POOR." HE RELIEVES THAT THE COMMON PEOPLE HAVE NO RIGHT TO DISCUSS GREAT QUESTIONS LIKE THE RE STRICTION AND REGULA TION OF TRUSTS AND COM LSI NATIONS OF CAPITAL. He is the proper man to head a ticket which the Cloveland Democrats and the McKinley Republicans are supporting. A Fair Division OF Tictet Matei Will k a Winnina: One.
