The banquet was Iven the grocers by the Portland Jobb ers snd was a notable success. The tables were spread In the main dlnlna- room of the hotel and when Charles B. Merrick, who presided, rose to introduce the first speaker, he faced fully 800 merchants representing all parts of the state. Governor Chamberlain talked along the line of what the bualneas men had accomplished In tne way of developing the state. He declared that Oregon had been misrepresented In congress for 30 years, e Your . efforts to open the Columbia fruitless," ho declared.

Francis J. Heney, who was Introduced as the "terror to evil-doers." plunged into a merciless Philippic against the railroads and? their salaried represent tlvea In iwnrrcu. "We have been so well satisfied with our form of aovernmenL said he. that we nave oeen content to ao wiiuoui tne substance, and for the past so years von neoole of Oreaon have had the form or representation, Dut tnat is an. witn aome of your most distinguished rep- payroll or tne uoutn- ern Pacific, while In congress, as was proved by the books brought into court in a case in which l was interested. were the people represented in congress, or were the rauroausT "What, has happened to tho millions of screa of the finest timber lands In the world, that used to belong to the )eople7 It has practically all passed nto tne nanos or tne railroads and tne great lumbering corporations by meana of the lieu land act, which waa passed by the railroad representatlvea in con- rreea on tne pretense oi taxing care or he poor aetuer. .

The dav will come when the people of Oregon will curae the memory of the man who gave away the foreats that belonged to the people.1' Mr. Heney declared that the railroads have become a posttlve menace aa a do- taxation nowr exists in the railroads," said he; "when they charge freight rates In excess of a fair profit And vet thev say that they should not be interfered with. ; They talk of their property. Why, such property is Impressed with the seal of public use, and can never be private property. In the sense that your house and lot Is your private property. "As we have thrown away our timber, Iron, coal and oil lands, we are -now throwing away our great water power. snd yet we boast that we are the most people on earth."
