This is not true. A majority of tbe re
publicans, and the leaders of the part;
in tbe senate, do not deeire that tbey
shall be seated, and especially does this
apply in the oase of Oorbett. He is the
creation ot Corbett's money end does
not represent the party. Without his
money the legislature would have met
regularly and a senator would have been

Washington, March 17. (Oregonian's
Washington Dispatoh ) Tbe determina
tion of the republican managers of tbe
senate not to give time to tbe considera
tion ot the cases of appointments by
governors ot stales was reaobed only
after it was found that tbe democrats
were determined to resist the seating of
the appointees as long as tbey oould
talk, and that they would be aided in
this by tbe silver republicans and popu
lists. There Is a feeling among many
senators who really believed that tbe
governors bad a right to appoint in the
oases of Montana and Washington four
years ago that, it having been settled by
a vote of tbe senate egainBt admission,
it is well to make it a preoedent for tbe
future, and make legislatures responsi
ble for tbe vacancies of a state In tbe
senate exoept in oases of death or resig
nation, when the legislatures are not in
session and appointments are provided
for.
One senator, disouBsing tbe Oregon
oase, said that, if the Oregon appoint
ment was sustaiued, that hereafter it
would be in the power of 11 men in the
senate, by refusing to go into organiza
tion to prevent forever tbe election of a
senator and make tbe governor the sole
official to choose senators. Some six
years ago tbe senate in Florida refused
to vot6 for seoator, and as a body refus
ed to go into jointsessioo with the bouse.
Some ot tbe senators went into joint
session with tbe house, a sufficient num
ber to muke a majority ot the legisla
ture. Tbey voted tor Call, and be held
bis seat without a dissenting vote.
In looking up the vote on tbe Mantle
oase it is found that tbe following sena
tors, wbo are still members ot the sen
ate, either voted or were paired against
seating Mantle:
Berry, Oaffei y, Cullom, Faulkner, Gal
linger, George, Gray, Harris, Kyle, Lind
say, McMillan, Mills, Allen, Morrill,
Morgan, Hale, Mitchell of Wisconsin,
Murphy, Pasoo, Piatt, Procter, Smith,
Vest and White.
Ten of these were free Bilver men, and
althoogb it would have added three
more silver votes to tbe senate, tbey
would not support tbe claims oi Mantle.
Those who favored Mantle and are still
members of tbe senate are
Bate, Daniel, Davis, Frye, Haosbrougb,
Hawley, Hoar, Jones of Arkansas, Jones
ot Nevada, Lodge, I'erkioa, Sboup,
Stewart, Teller, Turpie, Walthall, Wol
oott, Allison, Pettigrew, Chandler, Quay,
Gorman and Roaou.
Gorman afterward obanged his vote,
along with Voorhees, )a a motion to re-
oousider, tor it was knowa that, In the
few days that elapsed from the time the
first vote was taken until tbe fiualvote
oo tbe motion to reoousider was tabled
several silver senators bad been induced
to change tbeir minds, among them
being Ptffer. It waa thought that
enough votes had been secured by
means ot tbe silver argument to seat
Mantle, but as soon as Gorman w
aware ot tbe sobeme, he and Voorbeet
obaoeed. Afterward, when a statement
was made in tbe silver debate that Gor
man ana Voornees onangea oeoause
tbey did not want a silver man seated,
Gorman made a speeon uoooveriog tbe
whole silver deal, and asserting that he
and Voorbeee changed to keep tbe record
of tbe senate straight, and not to allow a
great constitutional question, settled on
its own merits, to be reversed in order
to gain advantage for a party or other

Local interest in the Carson figbt oo
Wednesday was up to the highest pitch.
Bulletins were reoeived at the Palace
hotel giving a full aooount ot the fight
by rounds and from the crowd gathered
to hear and obeer it would seem that
the sporting spirit ot Heppner's citizen's
is certainly well developed. In all it
was an interesting fight from start to
finish and it can oertainly be said that
Robert Fitzsimmons defeated James J.
Corbett in what was probably tbe most
Boientifically oonteBted battle in the
pugilistic world, and wrested from him
tbe title of obampion of the world.
Tbe figbt, whioh lasted for 11 rounds,
was fiercely contested throughout, and
is generally conceded to have been won
on its merits. During the first tew
rounds, however, and in point ot science
tbrougbont the fight, Corbett seemed to
have tbe best of it, but a tremendous
blow over the heart from Fitzsimmons'
right oarried him to the floor unoon
soious, and he did not rise until after
the referee's fateful "One-two three-four-five-six-seven.
eight-nine-ten and out"
bad been counted, proclaiming to tbe
world the advent ot a new pugilistic
champion in the person ot Robert Fitzsimmons.
