NEW JUDGE FOR THIS DISTRICT.
Three new judicial officers have
been created by the legislature. An
additional judge for this district will
be appointed and in commenting on
this fact the Oregonian says:

The Bingham mining bill was pulled
through the senate by a bare 16
votes. It was a great victory for the
mining interests. It relieves them of
the big annual tax on their capital
stock that has been imposed on un
productive mines by the terms of the
Eddy law. A compromise was reached
by which all incorporated mines are
to pay $10 a year to remain on the
corporation records. This was a just
amendment, and will benefit the min
ing corporations by keeping intact
the record of their corporate exist
ence. The effort of his bill in the
long run will be to not only benefit
the mining interests, but to develop
the entire state, and in the end in
crease the revenues from this very
source.
The Senate maintains its reputa
tion for economy by talking against
the seed appropriation, but the con
stituents need not worry. The seed
will be along about planting time.
There was time in the social his
tory of this country when money

and a fortune is far from hein.r a
thinr despised by those who pene
trate the select and fashionable cir
cles of the large cities of the I'nited
SUites. but every observer of the sit
uation is struck by the fact that
money alone has not the influence it
once had. It cannot be said that the
millennial age has arrived when cul
ture and refinement are the passports
of the "four hundred" but assuredly
it is a fact that these qualities are
disputing the power of money. New
port society has not. it must be ad-
mit ted. reached a point where it ad
mits only "he scholarly and good, but
any number of families equipped only
with fortunes and "push." are alive to
testify that they could not effect an
entrance. Washington society, which
of all in this country is the most cos
mopolitan, has refused, in notable in
stances, to recognize the merely rich.
Fortunes are common in these days.
A millionaire in a big city attracts no
attention for there are too many of
them. With the great increase of
fortunes in the last twenty years the
ranks of society have been filled with
multi-millionaires and money is actu-
1 allv common. Bat intelligence, edu
cation and gentle manners are still
rare, and society, so quickly surfeited,
turns from the merely rich to wel
come the unusual in refinement.
Money itself, with the opportunities
it gives for education and travel
have had something to do with the
change, of course, but another cause

the bill providing for the whipping
post for wife beaters in the 1 sstrict

the refined and gentlemanly wife

Experience has shown that the
climate of Oregon, which grows
wheat and other farm products in
wonderful prodigality, is equally well
adapted to the more ornamental, if
less valuable, flowers. Roses bloom
in profusion the year around in South

the name of Rose City on this ac
count. Just where the whipping post in
Roseburg will be located has not been
determined. It might be placed in

Salem, Keli. IS. Amid vocal strains of

of the clock were standing nt six min
utes past tlie hour of eight, last night,
the Boon of Representatives of the
Twenty-third Hiemiial Session of the
legislative Assembly of the State of
Oregon dissolved itself sine die, and
passed into history.
Then was re-enacted the old, old story
of the legislative exodus from the
Capital City. At the depot a special
train stood in wailing, ami shortly be
fore ! o'clock a quorum of lioth houses
were on ioard and speeding toward
Portland. Those who lingeied behind
saw a lonely and desolate sight in the
bails, where but an hour before l here
had been the closing scene of the bien
nial drama.

Late in the afternoon there was a pre

of the BoMB. Thomas Benton Kay.
the Speakers close second in the race

Mr. Mills responded in a thankful
vein and acted the surprise the fund ion
really was. This pretty performance
was declared a burying-of-tbe-batchet
act, in which all the differences, polit

Salem, Feb. is Governor Chani'n r
lain's veto threat message to the Senate
had the salutary effect of securing the
atolishment of the emergency rtinofi
from the general appropriation mea-iirc
and while the Chief Kxecntive has live
days in which to act. it is not believed
that he will disapprove. It was paaeed
sufficiently early in the afternoon that
he might veto if he so desired, but fol
lowing its passage the Governor indicat
ed that he was fairly satisfied, since his
principal objection had been done away
with.
Senator F. rrar. chairman 'i the wav-
and means committee made the motion
to cut out the clause, showing that the
hurried conference between Republican
leaders and the Governor had some ef
feet. There is no doubt the bill would
have been vetoed had it gone to the
Governor in its original state. No one
cared to take chances on that kind of
j trouble, consequently the bill was
amended.
NORMAL mOOI! w: ofT
Despite the shrill protest? of Senator
" att Miller, the watchdog of the treas
ury, the Normal School apppropriations
were returned to the figures named in
the original appropriation bill. The
Senator from Ling made a number of
ineffectual protests. The Senators who
-epresent schools of learning and other
institutions that require state ai 1 were
strongly fortified and the entire bill was
.as-e-l at the close with JO votes, font
more than necessary. The bill was
read over item by item when the Senate
was assembled in committe of the
whole.
The Normal school apptopriati' n
were increased as follows :
Manmouth, from foit.OO) lo :!; 000.
Ashland, from t&JttQ to :ll,0U0.
Krain, from f 1.1.000 to 81,900.

Representative from Cooe and Currv

by Mr. Hum.' during the present week
The complaint was filed here today by
Attorneys 1". H. D'Arry and W. E.

English Walnut Growing
There is no question of the fact that
interest in walnut culture is liecoming ;
wide-spread in Western Oregon. The
large size and superb quality of nuts
grown on the trees of Mr. Prince at
Dundee, Oregon, and of Messrb Saddle,
Beard, tjuarnberg and others iu the vi
cinity of Vancouver, Wash., and on
tiees scattered through the Wiltaiin-tle
Valley have caused a great demand for
trees for planting and for information
relative to walnut culture, ijuite large
importations of trees and nuts grown on
grafted trees have been made from
France this season. A fine display of
walnuts grown by Mr. I'rince will lie
shown at the Lew is and Clark BlHMi
lion and this display w 11 still further

had Dodlia moth worms brought to this
city in considerable quantities. He al
so provided for the worms quantities of
apples, by the Ikix. which the w- rm
promptly attacked, the apple being their
particular food. The worms paved the
way for future cod I ins moths, and so
the enemy of the apple and the enemy

PASS BINGHAM BILL
Strong Opposition Was Developed
in the Senate ou Final Vote on
this Measure.
Salem, Feb. 18. The P.ingbam bill to
exempt mining Companies from the pro
visions of the Eddy corporation tax law
passed the Senate tonight with not a
vote to spare. The purpose of the bill
is, to exempt from payment of corpora
tion tax all mining companies not pro
ducing $ :otH) a year. CorpanttioM thus
exempted must pay til) n year.
The Piiugham hill was dissected at
length by ('oe. Rand and Kaykeadall in
favor of amending the Eddy law, and
Booth, Haines and Malarkey against.
Ft, the bill it was argued that nine out
of ten mines do not pay and investors
Kink their money in 'the ground ; that
money invested in mines comes princi
pally from people residing outside the
state and IS epenl for laltor ami mater
ials, thus becoming a part of the wealth
of the state and adding to the amount of
taxable property. It was argued that
the state mikes annual appropriation
foe experiments with and grains
iu Kasiern Oregon aod that this conces
sion to the mining' industry will le in
the nature f an aid to experiments in
mining.
Against the bill it was argued that
there should lie no discrimination, for
then- are industries of all kinds that do
not pay : that if a mining compear
which does not pay protit is exempt, so
should Ik- a sawmill company. Senat. r
Booth asserted that sawmills paid out
f'JO.OOO.OUO in this state last year, prac
tically all of it received from other states
but millmen themselves lost money.
They are not asking to be exempted
from payment of the license tax.
It is also asserted that men who are
actually mining are not asking for ex
emption, but favor is ask.-: by men who
have Organised wildcat companies and
are ezplo'ting peehate el people in the
