There appears to be disposition' to ignore its -provisions, and to minimize the effect of . Its appli- . Cation to the exUting situation. Yet there was a time when the most pow erful lnfluenoe in the Republican poli tics of the stat urged the adoption of -" - that very lawj or one of the same im - Tport. ? ",' ' " -T-" ' " On January 23, 1901, the Morning Oregonian commented upon the rec ommendation of Governor Oeer which "JavTSsTfeiim tion of United States Senators by dl - Met - yotxi-the people. "TfieT govef . nor's recommendation was that resolu . tlon go to Congress from-each State . legislature, and in comment there ' upon the pregonlan said; . . Resolutions from-manj states, while ' they might not be sufficient to secure a National f convention jfor . the purpose, would certainly tend to Increase the num ber of senators favorable to tha reform. ' Meanwhile, "the biennial senatorial strug gles In Legislatures throughout the coun try1 are" supplying tha usual arguments from experience. . . . Here in Oregon the-mlsohief of these Impediments to leg f lalatlon has been enhanced by extended use of the organization of the Legislature In the. Interest of senatorial candidates. , : :;. "Let ..the Legislature paas some bill or other providing for popular vote on senators, and the Legislature will hardly brave public, opinion hardily enough, to disregard, the mandate. -i On the 26th of January, 1901, the Mays bill passed the Senate, later be- trig adopted by the house, and signed bj the Governor.- It provides that candidates for the office of United . ' States Senator In Oregon should have k place upon the Official ballot, when proposed by a given number of peti- . tlonera; 5 a.nd,t among other provisos, there U ona for reporting to the Legisr laturotharndHdarreTOtvIr . highest number of votes In the regular general election. $The Journal sees In the present sit uation disposition to Ignore the ob-xi ' Irtous meaning 4t the Mays law, and all because it chances to suit the ambl tidns of certain men who either desire themselves or their friends to go to the Eeinate. j -JRegardless of the personality or pol itics of the candidates who are before tb people, it cannot be denied that T. !3V Geef tvaa a great advantage in rest ing Upon his vote of last June for United States Senator. He complied (With tha Mays law. and received a majority of tha votes cast in the gen- eral election, . It Is Interesting vto. dwelt , upon Jbia. - jh,aae of the -State porlt'caf situation. The Journal believes that statements . avnd comments relative to this matter - re readjwlta suit deep interest by many persons.

Port land have, through you, tried to belittle? the .efforts of -our public spirited citizens. ' -J vs ' ' " ' ' Portland Is not a city. Mr. Mellen, that has been bound over to a raiN road corporation. Its port Is not dependent upon a market for any Certain railroad company bonds or securltlea. It la the natural center of Uorth western trade and is not governed by laws of boomleta or by boomers. Jast a parting word, Mr. Mellen, do not allow yourself to imagine that you have injured Portland by Idle words; you have helped it. for you have placed her on her metal and ahe will show you that what eh undertakes she will accomplish. This, In spite of her claim that with a independent class of untled-up commercial "centers she feels free to confess a affinity. " ter as effectually as though there were real legal command upon he Legisla ture to vote for the man receiving the majority of the regular election bal lots, i i r Let It be accepted that such a man ner of procedure, shall be followed, and there will be Just as much certainty that the result will be carried out as the people desire, aa there is that the presidential electoral college wlU vote according to the vote of the people of their states. Most people forget that presidential electors could vote for whom they choose; yet what presi dential elector would dare to vote aught but as his people at home voted? Applied In Oregon, the Mays law has just the same possibilities as the na tional electoral college. It aults some not to permit it to gain that power. There arr few, if any;sesslon of the Oregon and Washington Legislatures that adjourn without ' wrestling with some kind of fish legislation, or, per haps a better term, salmon legisla tion, -; The law-makers meeting next Jan uary will have the same subject to contend with. Heretofore, It has been a clash over wheels, traps arid seines ; but this time tt promises to be free from local inter ests, that Is, as between Astoria and the Middle Columbia, and will concen trate Itself against fall seining. It Is claimed by some prominent men engaged. In the salmon industry, that the fall seining does more to in jure the business tftan any other. It Is, indeed, claimed by some that the fall seining Of the higher bars dest roys infinitely more pawn than-all- the hatcheries take care of. The claim is made by many of those directly interested, that the salmon spawn. Just according to their condi tion; that the fish remain -often out side the bar . until It is time for them to deposit their eggs, and that this condition, alone, compels them : to seek fresh water; that as the result of this condition, the spawning grounds of the salmon are not alone the headwaters of the streams, but that every sandbar In the river is the natural hatcheries for them. They elalm that gill nets do not interfere with these natural hatch eries, because they do not touch bot tom; and that the spring -seining causes.no injury, because it is done over bars that at low water are dry. It is further claimed that the fall sein ing is done over tha natural spawning grounds, and that. In consequence, the lead-lines of the seines destroy a thousand embryo salmon where they catch one mature. They claim further that the only reason the fall seines are able to make good catches is that the salmon are seeking . the bars for the purpose -of -spawning; -and that the f alf seining is, in fact, but a sweeping of the natural hatcheries, a cleaning up of the mature fish already upon their spawning grounds and depositing their eggs. If these conditions are true, then It is high time that the fall seining be stopped. Columbia River salmon are the basis of a great industry, one in which the whole state Is Interested, and one which it cannot afford to see destroyed. It seems reasonable that the dragging of seines over the spawn ing grounds should be . prevented, and this question will be up for the Legis lators of the whole state to decide. -. TQ LEAD THE WORLD. ;.-While therofrtMjorti ayaHftble on which to base an -accurate estimate, It is conceded by conservative men who are acquainted with the mining industries of the state, that Eastern Oregon Will produce this year between 15,000,000 and $6,000,000 in gold. This is double the amount the entire state Is credited with, and the tremendous increase has been made possible by the development of the rich fields about Sumpter and fhe' Greinhorri. flt -is safe to say that the Increased facilities in the old, and the opening of many new mines will nearly, if not quite, double this output In 1903. And from present indications this will again be doubled by 1965. In other words, Eastern Oregon aloneTTSIds fair to pTOdWe-a9muctT gold as the great state- of Colo rado, and to do It within the next five years. . t Capital has discovered the richness ndpermanency of . th Oram- an4 Baker mines, and prospects that last year went begging, v arcs ow eagerly snapped, up.
