DOWN IN ARKANSAW. The Governor and the Legislature Havt ... a. Tiff. ... ,Llttle Rook, Ark., March 6. Intense excitement was felt in the bouse today when Mr. Monroe, of this county, arose to a Question of personal privilege and bitterly denounced Governor Clank li connection with the governor's criti cism of the house for defeating th railroad commission bill. Monroe made a hot speedh and excoriorated the gov ernor In unmeasured terms. He con cluded by saying among other thlngsi "I feel like standing on this floor and branding that man who Insinuate! any. thing against this body as an infamouf liar. I have as much or more evidencr to prove that Clarke Is a rascal than he has to prove the members of this llgls lature are." A reporter asked Gov Clark what he had to say In rep'v tc Monroe's attack on him. .

The State Legislators Did Considerable Business .Yesterday. Olympda, March. 6. After four hours of debate the senate killed Helm's rail road bill reducing freight rates, by vote of 14 to 20. Notice of reoon slderatlon was given, hut it is settled beyond a doubt that the result cannot be changed. Nearly every opponent 01 the measure explained his vote, and the chief reasons that were advanced were the following: Jhat the (bill was unjust in beneflttfR? only Eastern Washington; that It was class legisla tion, and that the railroad employe would have to suffer for the red'uctlor in rates. The bill was presented as it came from the (house and effectually withstood the broadside of amendments heaped for the purpose of making it unconstitutional. The result is a gen eral surprise, for the friends of the bill did not expect such strong opposition. The cap! to 1 appropriation bill passed (the house by a vote of 49 to 21. When the bill came up for the tlhird reading S p. m. the following amendment was offered by J. C. Taylor, of Pierce Making he amount J930,000 in lieu of 00,000; provided the contract for tht superstructure shall be for the com pletion of the ibulldlng according to the plans and specifications adopted by the cajoitol bulldlrar commission. nn1 hall be paid for In warrants on the caipltol fund. The bill comes up in the senate next week. The senate passed the following bills To create a hoard of dairy commission ers; pro v Ml rip that ten Jurors may re turn a verdict in criminal cases. In the house the rules were suspended immediately tnd the senate bill which passed the senate yesterday to remit tne interest and penalty on de lnauent taxes on 1893 and 1894 provided they are paia on or Perore July l, 1895, was passed. Boise. March 6. In the senatorial vote today one of Sweet's men left hiir and voted for Shoup, the result being Shoup 21; Sweet 18; Crook 14. Then is much talk of a dark horse, but no one has any definite idea who may be brought out. An effort of the Sweet men Is apparently to deteat Shoup at any cost. They have secured signatures of twelve of Sweet's orlsrlna! nineteen taking a pledge to stano. bj h'lm. If Shoup could get all the others It would leave him one short of a full vote but would elect with one ab sentee. There are only two more days of balloting and If the Sweet men and Populists continue to vote together until adjournment there can be only two ballots and perhaps no election List of Parties Who Pay Over ' -$100 Taxes. , FLAVEL ESTATE THE HEAVIE8T, A Statement TLat Will Prove Inter estiny Beading; to Everyone ' in Clatsop 'County.; mi . . . .ime luuwwimg statement was w pared for the benefit of the Astorlan's reaxiers ana gives the names of proper ty owners of this county whose taxes amount to more than $100.
