Willi ttu issue the i laindkaukh ea ters upon its 2$h ver as an advocate of republican doctrines in Pjug'as county ad n chronicler of local events. Its col am us duriog that period form a corn plete history of this locality. Therein can be found the record of the births the marriages, the deaths, the comedies the trage Jirs, the hopes, the fears, that have interested or pleased, tilled with gladness or depressed with gri-f, the people of this comtmiuity. The local newspaper is the indicator of the city business and social ptlse, and its coodi tion can be correctly diagnosed from tody of the paper's columns. It is also the mirror in which the cityjsees itself and if the sutface is not polished so that the reflection is satisfactory it is the fault of the city itself. The Plaindealeu wil 1 continue to advocate goxl government sound national policies, and the econom ical administration of state and county affairs, but wiil devote especial attention to the local and especial interests of Itoseburg and Douglas county. RAINBOW CHASINQ. The senate passed a bill author iztng the president to rail a monetary conference, and the same was favorably reported from the house committee to that body, and passed it all by an almost unanimous vote It is jast as well that it should. Of course Mr. Cleveland will not csll it will go over to his successor Mr. McKin ley, and as the latter was elected on platlorin pledging its candidate to pro mote the interests of international li metallUui he will use his beet endeavors tobring about 6uch a conference. The result of Wolcotl's mission to Europe may be taken as indicative of what such a conference may bring forth. It will fail of the object for which it is called Bimetallism, as the term is generally understood, means two staudards value, gold and silver, coined on equal terms at a ratio established by law The great commercial nations l ave got beyond that, and have made gold the standard and silver is subsidiary thereto, Under this system they have been doing business for a long period. It is found to be the most satisfactory yet tried and it will be continued, and the proposed conference, like its predecessors, will only go to establish the fact that bi metallism, the bimetallism of the silverlsts, will not be adopted bas been demonstrated that values not be created by flat, and sensible pie have ceased to try it.

It hasn't been of the "push," it is true, but it has had noth iug but words of condemnation for the methods used to prevent an election of a United States senator. They were, how ever, the same methods pursued by the friends of Senator Mitchell in Multno mah county last spring. There they were beaten at tht primaries and out numbered in the county convention They withdrew, set up a convention of their own, and endeavored to defeat and did defeat a part of the regular ticket, Who wae the d lef spirit in that?

SPEAKER REED. - A newspaper man who has studied Brisker Rfvl ciimely ears: "Mr. Reed takes frniuert rest by calling tneiiv brr teuH.rnrily to the chair. Cut yes terday, for instanc, was Riven over to motions for suspension of rules. He was afraid of what might come up, so he would not trust another member with the responsibilities of the chair. Hour after hour of this ceaseless and monotonous strain wears out even his Titanic visor. He U'onmes worn and abstracted. He ii cften jolly, shakes w ith Uiiishter in the chair, now he isseve-e and formidable, consulting clerk hI hi light hand to loll him what the motion if. and but The lias The weariness of rising to put nidii-us is telling upon him, mi l by the lime he brings down his gavel at o:o0 o'clock to declare the lioti adjourned, he would be about as dangerous for ordinary ap proach as a Kansas e clone or a Rocky mountain grimly.'' The delay in the Yaipiiua improve, ments. provided for in the river and har bor bill las! ) car, is a'tiibuted to opo sition of Eastern newspapers to the ex penditure. The improvements already made in that harbor have Wen of great benefit. There is uo reason why Ya ijuiua bay should not l a deep water harbor of easy access. The people of the Willauie'te valley are deeply interested n the prosecution ol the woik. On Thursday next William Mckiu'cy will be inaugurated as president of the United states. The new ciptain will walk the bridge of the thip of state and the course will tie changed from running in the direction of the re f of free trade, to the deep and placid waters of a pro tective policy. In the event nf an extraordinary ses sion of the Irgislature beimt called, new officers would be chosen. Of course, the old ones might te 'e-elected, hut that would bs a matter for each house to set tle for itself. Stateeaiao. It is now whispered that Governor Lord may appoint a United States sen ator, taking the ground Mint the vacancy could not be filled ss there has been no session nf the legislatur e to perform that function. - Several little things have cropied out that go to show that Ifihe late legisla ture had been gvfii a chance it would have given the people all the remedial legislation promised, or at least haye tried it.

We fend to Europe f 100,000,000 annu ally for sugar made from beets. This an item of expense we ought not and need not continue.

On. alja delegation The On. alja delegation of business men, uccom pained by Ibeirjwives, passed through in a special car yesterday morn ing en routo for Sacramento and home The delegation is out in the interest of the proposed trans-Mississippi Interna tional Exposition, or sirne such name, to be held at Omaha next year. They had the pleasure of meeting the legislatures of North and South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming and Washington in session, and in each instance a joint convention wag provided for and the members of the delegation invited to address the assembled law makers. It was expected to stay over at Salem but the visitors saw no profit in it aud went on to Sacra uieuto where they expect to meet and address the solons of California. It is the o jjuct of the visit to interest the peo ple of the Northwest an I of the Pacific Coast in the exposition and to get the states to piovide by law for the taking of part therein. They reported having been cordially received everywhere, and while there was no legislature to apply to in Oregon, the city of Portland looked favorably upon the proposition and the state will lie represented In some way. i I THE MASS MEETINO. The Court House Filled to Urct the Legislators. On Thursday evening laal, it having been announced In these columns on that day that several ol th members ol the legislature, including the delegation from lVxiitlai county, would arrive on the local train, quits a nntiilwr of per sons, accompanying them the brass baixl, gathered at the deot to greet the visitor. These who came were, Sena tors Reed, of Douglas, Price, of Uma' till, tiowan, of Harney, lirant and Morrow, Driver, if l-aoo, Hanium of Coow, Curry and Josephine, and Repre sentatives Crawford, of.Douglax, Rigby and Gunlmie, of Umatills, Hope, of Malheur, Palm, of Lane, Mitchell and Chapman, ol Marion, .(cuttings, of Wal Iowa, Sotuerit of Linn, and speaker Ben son, of Josephine. The visitors were escorted about by a commlttte lustily rotten together for the purpose, and ipiite a number, eseciitlly the old sol diers of t'e party, went to take a look at the Soldiers' Home, In the evening a mars meeting was held in the court house, and it was full F. W. lVtiion, chairman of the republl can county central committee, presided and introduced first Hon. Geo. M Brown, who in a few wellchosun words welcomed the visitors and said that if the state received no remedial legitU' tion at the late session it was no fault of thotx present. - He complimented them for stauding by the propositi u that majority should rule, and that sent! ment certaioly fell upon approving ears Representative Crawford was then in troduced and 1 rirtly referred to the hold up and said the terms offered by the op position were such that thev could not accept them aud at the same time pre' serve their self respect Senttor Gowau, was the next speaker and spoke of tho time when he first came to Ro-eburg as a member of the hoor6 committf in lft'3, in connection with the.tben propoeeil soldiers' home On his arrival the first thing he did was to go over eudetethe home, then ho launched out and eloquently rtferred to the old soldier and their record. These are tbemen, h) said, that put down treason, that bared, It heir breasts to the sho's of the rebellion, and he was glad that they were cared for. lie further said the Douglas county delegaiion stood shoulder to shoulder with him during the last 40 days with one exception. And duriog those davs the times have been as trying as were. the days in the army but he was eatirtled to allow his record to be judged bv the people. Representative Jennings of Wallowa then addressed the audience. He said if he was to talk farm he could talk en tertaimngly, cut to talk politics was another thing. He referred to the o'ig inal temporary organization and dubbed E. J. Davis ol Umatilla, speaker of the Davis bouse, a Judas Iscariot of the re publican party, tie said tliere were three caucuses held 'on the afrernoou of the Grst day, republican, populist and democrat, as party organizations. Rid die of .Douglas and J. M. .Davis were severely criticiseJ for withdrawing their namea from the house call for a caucus reducing the number from SI to 20. It was some'.hiogt else thin the election of spelter that caused the opposition to Stay out. It was their opposition to the re-election of Senator Mitchell. The re publican party will owe its future exist ence to the 30 men of the joint cocven tion. Senator Al. Reed, neededjno introduc tion, and said he would rather face the Oregon legislature than to face his friends. He bad been accused profanity and offered to prove it untrue by Sanator Driver. Driver interrupted to say he never believed Reed uttered a profane word unless necessary.) He knew Jona than Bourne, Joe Simon and that black fellow Barkley. The senator went on to apeak of the hold up in very forcible language, which was evidently approved It waa neceeeary at one time in the sen ate when his wife advised him to be cool, to tell her to mind her own busi- and he would mind his. His faith in Joe Simon was shaken when he found that Mr. Simon was a Tparty to the pro posed terms ot compromise, which he rend to the audience from the original manuscript, the substance of which was printed in our laet issue. The promoters he designated Judas Iscariots, Benedict Arnolds and d n traitors. Ilia 'castiga tiona were pointed and severe. He quoted Vaughn as saying in conference TTT - 1 1 . L . 1 1 . I I L iihuubwhj uiuui mat no uau utcu offered 1250 for every day he would stay la bed. senator Keod a apeecli waa rich, rare and racy. Gurdane, of Umatilla, waa elected as a republican and had been a republican for 40 years and had voted for Fremont for president, and'had been in many conventions but that legislative gather ing waa the worst. He complimented Senator Reed and Representatives BrldgeB and Crawford, but Mr. Riddle, he said, was a "riddle." Ho was glad to meet the people of Dougla and get ac quainted with them. As a member of the legislature he waa not a republican but an American citizen, and would act for the people and would cut off all com missions, who rida around on passes and let tho poor men pay the taxes, and if the ' jority was allowed to rule such lefci . a.on would be obtained. The at tempt of the minority to override a roa jority brought on the civil war. Mr. Gurdane then referred to Lincoln aud Douglas and the incidents of tho war, and closed with an appeal to the people to vote right. Representative Somen, of Linn, who has beon a prominent figure of the house during the past 40 odd day a waa the next speaker. He reviewed the history ot the house. He went there to legis late in the interest of the people of Ore gon. Davis of the temporary house came in lor severe condemnation lor hia persisteut ruling of "no quorum"! preventing thereby the reading of the eport of tho committee on credentials; J and this continued for tea days when 1U members got together and unseated Mr. Davis, made Smith of Marlon, speaker pro tern, and subsequently elected Ben son speaker, but the autocrat ot the senate refused to allow their announce ment ot orgwnlsation to go before the senate. We plead with the leaders ot the opposition, said Somere, singly and In groups, (or some compromise, but the lenua were alwajs such that no Ameii cau could accept. Thev had contended not tor a senator, but the right ot a ma jority lo rule. His term did not expire till Juno 7, ISt'8, buthe did not eipect to go hack to Salem unless called thore by Governor Lord, or waa taken there by force. Ooe of the conditions of com promise was the abolishment ot the rail road commission, and yet SI out of tho 20 republicans of the Benson houio had bills for That purpose. His cotirns met the approval ol his conscience and his judgment whether It did of the people or not. Senator Harmon, said ho was not ashamed ot what he had done and If it was to do over again he would pursue the same course. Speaker Beusott, enj yed talking to Rosebnrg audience because they were so infinitely patient, but Senator Reed had told him tbat there was to be a good time in Rosehurg, and knowing what good time here" meant he stopted over He made humorous reference to Senator Reed" add hit resolution, and dared him to read a particular one. He thanked the audience for the reception accorded hliu and bis colleagues. Senator Price, ot Umatilla, promised not to make a long speech. He had been a resident ot Oregon for 44 years but neror before saw Roeehurg, arid was agreeably surprised. This ia the most beautiful plac, the senator said, he ever saw. He was glad to tied the old sol diers so comfortably cared for, and as he waa an Indian War Veteran hiiucelf he had a fellow I eel ing for them. The speaker thought he wai patriotic and be lleved in majority rule. AlcKluley Mitchell ol 31 anon was in troduced. He said we had heard ot the Simon "push," the Mitchell "push. and now we had the Reed "push." He paid guile a glowing tribute to the Doug' las delegation for standing shoulder to shoulder with them in the fight. Chapman of Marlon, was not here to make political speeches. He made them last May, but when ho waa elected he went out ut ixjlitics, and considered that every man in Oregon had an in terest in the state euual to hie. He had made promises to hie people but was pre vented from n deeming them. He had a curios. ty to come here because he wanted to see the Soldiers' Home, and said this was the prettiest part cf Ore gou. He was almost mad at himself for stopping where he did instead of coming here. Referring to the hold-up ho said the Joe Simons and Cortwtta hadn't money enough to buy hia little finger. W. T. Rigby of Umatilla, approved all that was said. Was much pleased to meet the ieople of Roeeburg and the vicinity. Ilia first duty was to take his oath of office, the next waa to get to work and pass auch laws as the people demanded, but two meu stood in the way, He would give up his right arm but not hie independence. Palm of Lane, was uot a lawyer or preacher and waa not a public speaker, Representative Hope of .Malheur, ex cused himself. Senator Driver, wlio was received up roariously, knew the site of Roseburg be (ore the town was laid out, but he came here not to eulogize, but to make a state ment. He read a manifesto which had been prepared by a committee of the re, publican conference, consisting of Sena, tors Driver, Browuell, Gowan and Reed and Representatives Crawford and Conn aa follows: , lo the Voters oi Uregon: We, your eervanta, chosen by you last June to rep resent your interests in the nineteenth biennial session of the Oregon legislature with feelings of deep regret are com pelled to inform you that we have passed through forty-five days of this session and no United States senator baa been elected, no law has been passed and none repealed.--Daring this time we have been constantly in ouraeata at each roll call and ready to fnlhll oar oblige tiona aud redeem our pledges made to you to repeal all unjust laws, do awav with all useless commissions, reduce and regulate the salaries of all state and county oiticera in oruer to relieve you Irom the burden oi taxation, llut Irom discharging any and all of these duties we have been hindered by a minority ol sufficient strength to prevent the enact ment of any law or the election of United States senator. "The opposition from the first day have demanded ol ua to surrender and uiveuuour national, state and natural rights to vote for the man of our choice tor United States senator, when for this man near v all of as were instructed by you to vote: and when forty-four re publicans present recording their names and three by letter anu through iriends voted for him aa our caucus nominee. "Bound, aa each ot ua waa by our oath of otlice and our promise to you. we could not yield lo a minority de mand to violate our oath of office, break our promise to you, strike a death-blow at the very life of our government, and open wide the gate which leads to the very citadel ol all American institutions by putting future legislation into the hands and under the dictation of a min oritv rule. "Aside from these patriotic and moral obligations, we are frank to state to vou that it was further demanded ol ua that they be allowed to name the speaker of the house, and that we consent to auch legislation as they would propose to ua: and that wo promise not to vote for John it.

The senator then read the terms of compromise proposed by the opposition aud commented theroon in very forcible language. Aa some ot the giants of the past loft the democratic party to aave tho country, eo the speaker consdered the cotiutry above party, and could not surrender his principles even to secure the election ot a United Htates senator, Senator John Michell was criticised by NEW SPRING Our Spring Oooda are Just beglnnliiK to arrive, inspection and comparison of FINE FOOTWIiAR For Men, Women and Children.

I. ark Dilycu was roasted for coating in to the joint convention and going out. lie was likened to the man who sold a hog to a butcher, stole it in tho night, painted spots on it and sold it agaiu tho next day to the siaio roan, lie siid ho could have tsken $30. 000, referring to the uio of money. Harvev Scott was character ized us the biggest heretic in religion and politics in Oregon. The speaker hadn't ei milted the Orcgouimi to come into bis house for eight yenrs. This is one of th best legislatures ever ixsembled be cause it ill put a stop to nil such tac tics in the future. The meeting then adjourned. It was i pec ted that a scriol session would be held at the Kks' Hall, but through Rome misunderstanding it did not take place. Washington's Farewell. An Ithaca, N. Y., dispatch of Febru ary 'Jl'd says: Washington's birthday was celebrated under the auspices of the Washington Socty of Cornell, the e prcise taking place in the Armory hall.
