STATEMENT 110. 1 111 MM
llt.I SES1N (IF EElMIJfit
1
The Portland Oregonian revlewa
the organization of the next legisla
ture In the following manner:
Statement No. 1 members-elect of
the Oregon legislature do not propose
to take any chances of having either
branch of the lawmaking body organ
Iced by unfriendly forces. Plans al
ready are being formulated by which
the statement, members expect to
capture the organisation of both hous
es.
In carrying out their program, how
ever, the republicans (statement men)
undoubtedly will be Joined by the IS
fiemocratlc members whose votes will
le required for the successful organ
isation that is proposed by the legls
, 1 at org who are pledged to elect Gov
ernor Chamberlain as United States
senator.
The details of the plan. It Is said,
propose that the democratic memhers
In return for their support In the
work of organization, are to content
themselves with the election of Gov
ernor' Chamberlain to the senatorshlp,
at the same time conceding to the
statement republican members all he
Important committed chairmanships.
It Is also understood that the only
caucus in which the statement mem
bers will participate, preliminary to
the organization of the house and the
senate, will be a Joint conference of
the statement members of both
houses.
The statement men In the house
will not go Into a caucus of the re
publican members of that body, be
cause they would be outnumbered by
the anti-statement members, who
would be able to control the organ
ization of that branch.
In the senate the statement mem
bers would not be taking any chances
In a caucus, having 12 of their num
ber, against 11 of the opposition, the
other seven members of the senate!
JSeing democrats. But In order to In- j
sure organization of both houses byj
the statement forcest It is predicted i
sure the organization of both houses
will refrain from participating In an
Individual caucus of either branch of
the legislature. j
Need Democrat Help.
The statement people Insist that
It Is Imperative for them to control
the organization of the legislature by
electing both the president of the
senate and the speaker of the house,
and at the same time capturing the
chairmanship and control of all of the
Important committees.
This can be done only by the as
sistance of the democratic members,
and It will be left to Governor Cham
berlain and State Chairman Alex
Sweek, of the democratic organiza
tion, to line up the members of the
minority party. In the Interest of the
election of Chamberlain to the sea
atorshlp.
The statement republicans appre
ciate the situation, and figure that by
getting on the ground early, fortified
by the influence of the governor and
the democratic state organization,
they will be able to make an effectual
combination and checkmate any move
on the part of the anti-statement
forces to entice from the democratic
forces any member by the promise of
a covetous committee chairmanship
as a reward for his vote and assist
ance In capturing the organization of
either the senate or the house.
In seeking to elect the presiding
officers of both houses and secure
control of all important committees,
the statement members explain that
they consider It essential to the future
of the principle on which they have
been elected. They point to the fact
that a majority of the members of
the legislature are statement men and
as a result It will be known as a
statement No. 1 legislature and the
statement forces will be held respon
sible. It Is for this reason they Insist on
having full control of the legislative
machinery, suspecting that the antl
statement forces, even should they
fail to organize either of the two
houses, will do everything possible to
embarrass the majority.
Multnomah Expects One.
In planning for the election of the
president of the senate and speaker
of the house, the statement men real
ize the best Multnomah county can
expect will be the selection of one of
these officers. The indications are
that Senator Kay of Marlon, will be
the choice of the statement people for
president of the senate. His recent
declaraion that he would support Gov
ernor Chamberlain for senator ap
years to have satisfied the statement
forces of his firm allegiance to that
principle.
BENEFIT FOR BABIES.
"Mothers Rest" nt Coney Island Will
Be Added.
A benefit performance of "The
Wolf will be given at the Lyceum In
New York and Is expected to add
thousands of dollars to the fund for
'saving the babies" of New York dur
ing the hot summer months. The en
tire proceeds of the performance, In
which many prominent actresses and
actors will participate, will go to the
Mothers' Seaside Rest Home at Co
ney Island beach. A feature of the
performance will be an enormous
flower booth, at which several beauti
ful women of the stage will sell flow
ers at prices based on all the traffic
will bear. Several other" amusement
houses will probably give benefits and
several large private subscriptions
have been received. Including $2500
from William Randolph Hearst.
Aside from the Mothers' Rest at
Coney Island beach, numerous other
charitable organizations will take part
In a concerted plan to save the lives
of the thousands of Infants and child
ren who would otherwise certainly
perish during the summer. In past
years, this relief work has been car
ried on in a desultory and unorganiz
ed manner, with the result that the
slaughter of the- innocents has been
appalling. For the first time In any
American city, a systematical official
effort Is to be made to savo, the little
ones. '
To put this plan Into execution, the
city has been divided Into districts,'
with 50 agencies prepared to glv In
structions to mothers In the care of
their children, or to nurse and care
for the litle ones when the mothers
find it Impossible to do so In a proper
manner.
It is the first time that any Ameri
can city has undertaken to care foi
100 per cent of the babies needing
care. Plans are being made to learn
what Is being done in every part of
the city. The health board has ap
pealed to private agencies to unite in
aiding the work and to keep the city
officials posted where private aid is
not sufficient. ' Dispensaries, hospit
als, dry nuserles and Individual phy
sicians have agreed to unite In giving
Instructions to mothers during the
hot weather.
Physicians Interested in the work
declare that It will be absolutely ne
cessary, to save the lives of many
women and children, that they be sent
out of the city during the hottest part
of the summer, and the Seaside Rest,
for which today's benefit Is given,
will accommodate a large number of
these.

resented at this convention; 15 new
churches have been built; $70,000 or
$80,000 has been expended In church

150 per cent. In the reports of the
treasurer and of the committees there
was little or nothing of general Inter
est. The reports of the churches were
emitted.
Dean E. C. Sanderson, of Eugene,
Ore., made an Interesting talk on min
isterial supply. He said that the
church at present could put 4000
preachers to work; 600 could be Im
mediately used in the northwest. The
need is growing out of proportion to
the supply and he made an eloquent
appeal to young men to get In this
work.
