printing clerk. Hia duties are to at-
jena to certain items connected With
the senate printing, and handle all the
rutumea ex puDiie documents which ara
pound in specially attractive form for
mo senators.
Turner came from Portland, where he
was a drug traveling man. Soma time
ago Senator Bourne wanted Turner's
position for one of his constituents, and
ucmanaea turner s resignation. Under
tna rule of patronage, he was entitled
to get Turner's Job for his own friend,
and Secretary Bennett of " the senate
served notice on Turner that he would
nave io get out. .. ,
. Turner, during his long service, has
formed some rather warm friendships
for certain , of the old-time senators,
who had become accustomed to have
tha, Oregon man attend to their busi
ness. He had DerfarmeA hi. fiinntinm
so efficiently that ha finally had grown
to be an absolute necessity, Therefore,
When ' he ' received Secretary Rennatf
ultimatum, he quietly counseled with
some of" his cloaa a.n.tnHav rianH.
and Senator' Hale of Mains took tha re
snonslbility of seeing that Turner waa
