THE LEGISLATURE.
Frooeedisg; of The House and Senate.
Salem, Jan. 16. The principal
feature of to-day's session of the
legislature was the assembling in
joint convention in the hall of the
house of representatives and list
ening to the reading of the gover
ernor's message. It was not long,
as such documents go, but its read
ing was deliberate and with
marked emphasis on several por
tions which it was evident the
author deemed of grave impor
tance to the people of the state,
and therefore should be also to
their constituted representatives.
Particularly did he call attention,
by his slow and pointed enuncia
tion, to his views regarding the
railroad commission, created by
the legislature at its last regular
session.
But few of the members of
either house were aware that the
governor had that very morning
removed the railroad commission
ers from office, "for cause," and
looks of astonishment were ex
changed. Daring the noon recess
this action of the governor was
one of the principal topics of con
versation. Commissioner Wag
goner, who was present, seemed
to think the governor had no
right to remove himself and his
brother commissioner from their
offices, and intimated that they
should continue to discharge the
duties required of them by the
act creating the commissioner!'.
Representatives who were lawyers
thought the governor had a right
to remove the commis-ioners and
thus render inoperative a law
which he seemed to think useless.
The sentiment of the legislature
did not appear to be with bis ex
cellency in this matter, however.
Although the supreme court had
decided that the commission hud
no power to regulate the charges
of railroads, yet it is thought that
iu investigating cases of unjust
charges and reporting the same to
the public and to the legislature,
the commission is doing good
work.
One member said: Many wrongs
have been righted by this com
mission, and we all know that the
railroads have acceded many times
to suggestions made by tho com
missioners. The suggestion of the governor
regarding the punishment of
bribery was acted upon in the
house in the afternoon, "Waldo in
troducing a bill repealing that sec
tion of the law which punishes the
taker of a bribe. It should be an
easy matter now to punish the
bribe-giver.
Representative Harm's bill to
regulate salmon fishing on the
Columbia river and its tributaries,
prohibits the fishing for, catching
or taking of salmon in the waters
by means of river nets, pound nets
or fish traps, but exempts traps
made of wood. For constructing
such prohibited nets or traps, for
catching fish by means thereof, or
for having in possession any fish
so caught, the following penalties
are previded: For the first offense,
a fine of not less than 8250, nor
more than $500, to which may be
added, in the discretion of the
court, imprisonment in the county
jail for not less than a month, nor
more than six months; for each and
every subsequent offense, a fine of
not less than $500 nor more than
$1,000, to which in tho discretion
of the court, may be added im
prisonment for not less than six
months nor more than one year.
The close season is also fixed bv
this bill during the month of
March, and up to the lUtli of April,
and after the 10th of August, and
from 6 P. 31. of each and every
Saturday during April, May, June,
July, and up to the 10th of Au
gust until 6 P. Jf., of tho following
Sunday. One half of the fine in
to be paid to the informer, and the
other half into the school fund ol
the county where such offender i
convicted.
Two or three bills have been in
troduced author zing the construc
tion and maintenance of-booms on
the Umpqua and Rogne rivers.
These bills are not likely to be
come laws, hut if they should, it is
claimed by members well versed
in the law that they would be un
constitutional. It is declared that
the question of right to maintain a.
log tmom on any htream has at
r adv ben denied by the supreme
court, m the cua of some parties
on the Rickreal river in Polk county-There
was a sharp discussion
this afternoon in the senate, aris
ing trom Uimick s joint memorial
petitioning congress to pay Union
veterans tne diuerenco between
the value of the greenbacks re
ceived for their services and the
actual value of their services.
Coggswell, Dem., of Lake, in
timated that .he -would not be able
to support the memorial and moved
its reference to the committee on
military affairs. His motion was
voted down, 19 to 11.
Barin supported the resolution
in a short but pointed speech.
Chandler, of Baker, on being
recognized by the chairman, in
quired if the senate would listen
to what an ex-rebel had to say.
He then said he would suoport the
resolution, beca.use he believed the
government should make good its
promises to the soldiers.
Coggswell, who is an ex-Union
soldier, said be had received every
cent the government had promised
him, and he had no claim un it.
After further discussion by
Barm, Vaj;er, Sinclair and Coggs
well, a vote was taken, resulting
hs follews: Ayes 26. nays 3,
Coggswell, Stanley, Veatch and
Caiithorn not voting.
In the senate this morning Grav
of Clatsop, introduced a bill which
substantially conforms to (jrov
eruor Pcnuoyer' recommendation
tor the building of portage rail
ways by levying a tax. The bill
constitutes the governor, secretary
of state and state treasurer a board
of portage commissioners and em
powers them to levy the necessary
tax.
The Republican members of the
hgislature held a caucus for over
an hour lo night, in pcr.-uance of a
notice given at the close of the
session in both houses this after
noon. Senator Barin of Clacka
mas, presided, and Representative
Earbart of Portland, acted as sec
retary. Sixty-six members were
present. X wo ballots were taken.
The first, which was an informal
one, resulted as follews: Dolpli
40, Hon. George H. Williams 11,
and one each for ex-governor
Moody, congressman Hermann,
state senator Fullerton, speaker
Smith and others. Second ballet:
Doloh 57, George H. Williams 6,
district attorney Ellis of the sev
enth judicial district 1, Judge
Boise 1. Senator Dolpli was then
unanimously chosen as tho caucus
nominee of the party, and will be
voted for next I uesday.
Cyrus A. Dolph of Portland, to
night telegraphed the result of the
caucus to his brother at Washing
ton. It was agreed that both houses
adjourn to-morrow noon until
Monday. f
