y Czi She gaUjj gjtorau. ASTOKIA. OREGON: TUESDAY OCTOBER 13. 1SS5 A SPECIAL SESSION. So the governor has at last yielded to the pressure and called a special session! "Well, there was nothing else left for him to do af ter the silly action of the legisla ture last winter. Leaving the senatorial' matter out altogether there are three or four important matters that need straightening up, and would grow worse by de lay. Some of the state journals affect to believe that the thirty eight Democratic members will not go to Salem. No such action of the kind is nrobable. The greater part of them will be only too glad to go; in the first place they will consider it a good opportu nity to make political capital; then again the tittles are not so lively that they can afford to miss the opportunity to be thrilty; besides the whole business must appeal to them in the ridiculous aspect that it affords, for there is no denying that it furnishes many of the char acteristics of an excellent joke, the idea that ninety men in sixty days couldn't elect a man to go to the national capital. And even if the whole 38 should conclude to stay at home, an impossible con tingency, the 51 that would be there would elect. The onty real question that comes up now that the special session is assured, is who will be elected? Will it be Ilirsch, or Williams, or Mitchell, or Lair Hill, or Moody? What effect the special session may have on the future fortunes of the Republican party is problem atical. If there were no other business than the simple election of a senator, then it might with great propriety be argued that on the majority who could elect and didn't, should fall the odium of failure and the entailed expense of the coining session, but when all the mistakes and blunders are brought up and fairly divided the two political parties or their rep resentatives at Salem it would be the pot calling the kettle black face for the Democrats to try to lay all the blame on the Republi cans. In the meantime the dear people can stand ready to pay $30,000 for the fun. What a splendid piece of road, what a useful highway, that 30, 000 would build! Twenty years ago a special sestion of the Oregon legislature was called. Let us hope that it will be twenty years more before another is made neces sary by the foil' of those who rep resent the commonwealth at the state capital. A Washington special says: Possibly there may be a curious sequel to the case of Judge Dawne's appointment to Alaska, with respect to whom the presi dent some months ago wrote the letter that attracted so much atten tion. President Arthur appointed to that position McAllister, who is said to be a Democrat whenever taking an active part in politics. It is learned that his removal was secured by the Presbyterian mission agency in Alaska, through agents here, and by representa tions that seemed hostile to the mission. Then came the appoint ment of Dawne, a concededly un fit person, whose appointment has not yet been revoked. Judge McAllister's father, a society man in New York, has interested him self very actively in his son's be half. He has secured letters from August Belmont and other promi nent Democrats, urging his son to be restored to his office. At least one member of the cabinet is very actively interested in McAllister's behalf. The street car drivers and con ductors of St. Louis have struck. They have been working sixteen and three-fourths hours per day, the drivers getting $1,150 and the conductors S1.75 for their day's work. They are willing to work twelve hours for 1.75 and $2.00 respectively. The Standard thus obligingly maps out the special session pro pre gramme: "Besides the election of a United States senator it is vari ously proposed after repairing the defects in the laws enacted at the last session to repeal the Hoult railroad law and establish a rail road commission, and on the other hand to pass a more stringent law to regulate railroad freight charges to investigate the swamp land business; to pass a law to bring the various savings banks and other banking institutions under state supervision; and to amend the mortgage tax law. It is said that the Northern Pacific and Or egon Railway and Navigation companies have exerted the final influence in bringing the governor to call an extra session, in order to anticipate the Central Pacific in the election of a senator in their interest, and that these railroads have already got things fixed." Flood Rock, in New York har bor, was blown up by dynamite last Saturday. The work of get ting ready to remove the obstruc tion to navigation has been going on for years. The explosion is considered a success. The na tional government appropriated $5,000,000 to blow up that rock, and will assuredly be as just as it is generous and loan liberally to this section of the Union in aid of improving the Columbia bar. Ilere no dynamite or shock is needed, only to aid the heaving tides that want to make a channel through which the Avhite-winged carriers of commerce may come and go. Tmi Oreyonkin thinks it is probable that a special session of the legislature will be convened about the 10th or 12th of Novem ber, and adds: "The Republicans will then have an opportunity to show whether they can suppress selfishness and factionalism, and ffivc the state a senator who will be useful to it and a credit to their party. After the experience of last winter there ought to be no difficult' in coming to a right un derstanding. The failure then should be a sufficient warning for the present and for the future too." The prophetic soul of the Sun day "Welcome editor prompts the prediction that "trouble will be had with the Democratic members; that in fact thirty-one of them will tender their resignations at the convening of the extra session, and thus necessitate a proclama tion from the governor for new elections to nil tne vacancies, ior which the same gentlemen will stand as candidates and probably be re-elected by increased majori ties as a rebuke to the state execu tive for his desperate course." Nobility is valued at its true worth in Norway, if the following story is true. A lady pointed out the Prince of Wales to some pea sants of a Norwegian farm. They did not evince the slightest emo tion, however, at seeing the heir of the British Empire, but only asked quietly, "Where is Mr. Gladstone?" The schooner Dauntless, which was defeated in the two ocean races by the cutter Genesta is go insr to the Mediterranean this winter, and it is reported in New York will attempt to bring back the two challenge-cups, contesting for them with the Genesta over the English channel course. The Olympian from Tacoma has been quarantined at Victoria, having on board passengers from Montreal where the small pox is now virulent. The Louisville Courier-Journal says: "Some saysheol is a magnifi cent dry goods store crowded with women who have no money." The Ohio election takes place to-day. Who are you betting on, Foraker or Hoadley? NEW TO-DAY. Administratrix Sale of Steamboat THE INTEREST OF THE ESTATE OK I. Steven, deceased, in the steamboat Tom. Morris is for sale.
