There was the general appropriation bill, which carried 74 items amounting to the sum of $1,231,216. Among the appropriations were such items as $24,000 for the Oregon naval militia, $40,000 for bounties on wild animals, 150,000 for the Immigration commis sion and a number of others that rap idly swelled the total to a figure that many of the lawmakers, now that the primaries are so near, dislike to look in the face.
