Salem. April 4. Governor Geer for
United Stages', senator is" the new sl'o
gan of Marion county republicans
When the tiews that Governor Geer's
name would not be placed before the
republican convention in Pprtfand "for
nomination -was received in salenn
much dissatisfaction was expressed
by the stalwarts of the party he,re
but when fhe future' .CfdlnRS wero re
ceived .that'.despife the- efforts of the
Geer managers to stem the tide, Fur
nish had been named on -the first bal
lot, dissatisfaction changed' to. open
revolt and many a man who has voted
the straight republican ticket, all his
life, openly declared his intention of
supporting Uhamberlaln, should he be
the democratic nominee.
So Intense was the feeling that
when those ho bad been persistent
opponents of Geer from the start re
frained from adding fuel to the flame
and Jiad but little to1 say.
It is now generally understood that
Geer will make a fight for the position
of United' States senator and while no
official .confirmation, of the "story is to
be obtained, men who stand high id
the confidence of the governor state
freely that it is a fact.
When spoken to on ..the subject the
governor .simply said; For the pres
ent I do not' wish ,to .sayj-anythlng,'
and there, s,o .far ,as ;he -lscqncernel,
the matter will 'doubtless' rst till

Republican Steering Committee Will
Place the Philippines Measure
Ahead of the Nlcaraguan Proposal
'on the Calendar.
Washington, April 4. A meeting of
the senate steering- committee will bo
held in a few days to decide upon ,the
course of legislation after the disposi
tion of the Chinese exclusion bill. It
is believed the Philippines civil gov
ernment bill will be the first measure
taken up, taking precedence over the
Nlcaraguan canal bill, which manj
senators think should go over until
the next session on account of the
many changes thai have occurred in
the canal situatiaj.
-Chinese B!li in the House.
Washington, April 4. The house in
committee of the whole to day began
consideration of the Chinese exclu
sion bill.
Kahn, of California, made the first
important address on the measure.
The speaker discussed at length the
undeslrability of Chinese as residents
of this country. He contended that
as a race they are known for their
duplicity, which'hus .been In evading
tne exclusion law vquoted from
offlciaj riposte to the effect that 5000
Chinese have b0en admitted to New
York and Vermont alone upon per
jured testimony and could safely say
tnat u per cent of the cases refused
admission were those of bogus merchants.
What Kahn Said.
"It Is this so-called merchant class,"
he declared, "that are responsible for
most of the crimes committed .by the
Chinese In this country. It ,is they
who hire the highbinders and murder
ers to assassinate their business and
personal enemies. It is they who
own the gambling houses, lottery
joints and opium dens."
Taking up the question of the ex
clusion law upon our trade with the
Orient, Kahn thought there are pos
sibilities that that.rade has ' been
largely exaggerated, but that, In any
event, as shown by Increases in re
cent years, the exclusion laws did
not stand greatly in the way. . In con
elusion, Kahn said;
"Our exclusion laws have been of
great good to the laborers of this
country, They ask us to continue this
law, and I feel there is not a patriotic
liberty-loving American who does not
desire to see the workingmen of this
country protected against unequal
pompetltlon.

Oregon Once Wat First Washing

Facts.
San Francisco, April 4. The coal
product of California comes from four
counties, Contra Costa, Alameda,
Amador and Riverside. Othor coun
ties hav produced in the pnst, tho
mines now being abandoned. It seems
certain that California will noyor
rank higher than today as a coal pro
ducing state. No coal mining mach
inery is used and there is no miners'
union in the' state.
Oregon has but ouo productive coal
field, tho Coos bay field. It Is about
30 miles long with n maximum
breadth of 11 miles, a total area of
250 spuare miles. In 18S5 Coos bay
coal began to attract attention. Tho
coal Is lignite and Is preferred to oth
er coal for domestic fuel, but does
not generally coko, and Is not a good
steam, coal. Other fields showing
coal of good quality are the Upper
Nohalem field In Columbia county,
the Lower Nohalem field in Clatsop
and Tilllmook counties; tho Yaqulna
field In Lincoln county, and the Eck
