OREdON'S BIG SIDESHOW.
Or In Other Words the State Legis
lature. Nine days have passed since the
Oregon legislature convened and
the house is still unorganized, with
no more prospects of organization
now than on the day the house
first assembled. It seems to now
have developed into a contest of
endurance, and both sides express
themselves as determined to hold
out till the other surrenders.
When the end will come no man
will now attempt to predict. One
thing seems to be certain, however,
Bourne is complete master of the
situation and it does not seem pos
sible that the house will be able to
organize without electing
speaker.
him i
There are 28 republicans who
sit in their seats and answer to roll
call; there are four democrats that
are present part of the time, and
some of the populists are at times
present. Bileu, of Lane, in speak
ing for the four democrats, states
that whenever the republicans will
bring in thirty-six of their members,
that the four democrats will be
promptly on hands to help organize
the house, thus making a quorum
of forty. Until they do this, the
only thing the democrats can do is
to prevent as far as possible, either
faction from taking an unlawful or
unconstitutional course ofaction.
The populists have issued an
address and outlined their attitude
in the fight. They, in substance,
say that when that republican ma
jority will guarantee certain reme
dial legislation, such as the abolition
of useless commissions, cutting
down needless expenses, and other
reforms, that they will come in and
help to organize the house. They
say that the republicans who are
now trying to organize, will not
attempt any of the reforms promised
iac i.,n.
lasi june.
The twenty-eight republicans
who want to organize claim that
their only desire is to organize and
get to work, and that they stand
ready to redeem the pledges made
the people last spring.
Of course the senatorial fight lies
at the bottom of the whole affair,
and it is assisted by the commis
sions who would hold over should
no organization of the house be
made. Senator Mitchell has re
ceived the caucus nomination of
forty-seven republicans, this being
one more than enough to elect him.
This is a .very narrow margin,
particularly when it is called to
mind that no less than fifteen
republicans refused to go into
caucus at all. Should he lose two
of the caucus votes he would fail of
re-electiou. Considering the fate
of the Dolph caucus two years ago,

it is not at all certain that the
forty-seven will obey the caucus
obligation. Should the house
organize this week, or on Monday
of next week, the vote for senator
would occur on Tuesday, February
2nd, but should it not organize
until after next Monday the vote
would not occur until the 9th.
One thing that the house seems
to have entirely forgotten, and that
is that the people have any rights
whatever, which they are bound to
respect. Some day the people will
make a reckoning.
What a miserable shame it is
that those four democratic mem
bers of the lower house of the legis
lature don't go in and help those
forty-seven republican members
make up a quorum of forty, so that
they can organize the house.

The Union fishermen ot Astoria
will put up a large and complete
cannery plant at that place to com
pete with the canneries controlled
by the Cannerymen's union. The
plant will be a modern one, and
will have the effect of settling the
price offish on the Columbia river.
This is the way that the Salem
Independent gets after some of the
candidates for positions around the
legislature: "It is a pitiable sight
to see members of former legisla
tures now seeking for clerkships
and menial positions around the
legislature. A former senator is
now seeking to be made doorkeeper
in the senate gallery. Shame upon
such a contemptible practice. The
man who will descend to this is
mean enough to pasture a goat on
the grave ot his grandmother.
In
some states, if a man were found
I mean enough to do this, the metn-
bers of the third house would rise
up and lash the merciless fellow to
his den."
To the democrats and populists
who have "sat up nights," as it
were, to heap anathemas upon the
head of Harvey Scott and the Ore
gonian, there is a certain amount
of satisfaction in observing the vim
and vigor with which a certain
class of republicans are taking the
job out of their hands. One good
republican of many years' stand
ing, of this place, made the solemn
statement the other morning that
he had actually detected the Ore
gonian in a lie. And he was so
earnest about it that none of his
hearers attempted to contradict
him.
Mr. Lake, of Benton and Lincoln,
will introduce a bill having for its
object the protection of the Eastern
oysters introduced into the waters
of Yaquina bay. He has also a bill
which seeks to make the experiment
of employing the state's convicts
on the construction of public high
ways. This bill constitutes the
governor and superintendent of the
state prison a board to serve with
out pay in designating the manner
of the employment of the convict
labor and superintending the work.
The idea is to construct a road from
the north limits of Salem to Port
land, following the most direct
routes. The measure contemplates
a full report of the experiment by
the boaid to the next legislature,
as a basis for further legislature
along similar lines. Mr. Lake will
also stand sponser for a bill pro
viding for the payment of all road
taxes in money. Statesman.
