The following bills were read the first

Myers S- II No 41-Pnr coiis'ructlon or
Airtland, Dalles and Salt Lake railroad.
Hlrsch HIl No II To appropriate 1 10,000
per annum. I'or purpoM) of encouraging (in
migration. This bill gave rise to lengthy iIIhciissIouou
matters or public econoiiiv. Tnwnseud ro
furred to great exienses or State Uovornment
and thought the last legislature was mainly
responsible ror the debtor theSta, and the
member from Multnomah (Mr. Dolnh) was
I one of the main Instruments of procuring
net i-.iin fflKsia niiiiriniiuiis,
Dolph reviewed some of the facts concern
ing mat iegisisunn
lion. He thoimht the $100,000 ,
riliK State Capitol, with the
the iM)tniiiandof the Comiuts-1
appropriated lor
other uiaans at ll
sinners, would construct a building In which
urn i.egMiaiureccwn meet the present tloio.
Uo was not responsible, for he was disfran
chised of his right to have n voice in electing
the Couimisslonen. Tho Joint Convention,
to elect Capitol CemmlMlouora, was prevent
ed by the action of aomo members of the
Senato. The appointments were made hy the
Otiveriior, and bo waa responsible. He
(Dolpi) was tuahily Instrumental In prevent
ing the increase ol Statu, debt, by purchase of.
the Canal and Cocks.
Wntsoii thought he bad no right to snecu
lato with the people'si inoney. This scheme
lor oocouraglntf liumlgration is a speculative
Idea that may not succeed. The State cannot
meet Its presoat obligations, or even expect
to reduce the State debt for some years to
co rue.
