Yeo $ Co. in «he Same Irregular Ma Portland Oregonian, April 11.] John A. Jeffrey won out in the contest for the nomination for the joint senator ship between Marion and Linn counties. Tile fight was a warm one while it lasted, but when the vote was taken the minor ity quietly acquiesced in the choice of the majority. The Linn county delega tion settled'the matter after the Marion county people had failed to agree. The fight was really one between the two op posing factions of the democratic party tn Marion cotintv. W. H. Holmes was the candidate of one faction and J. A. Jeffrey of the other It was decided that the candidate should c>»me from Marion county, and the delegates from Linn agreed to stand by any man who might be agreed upon by 12 of the 16 delegates from M irion. But 12 men of one opinion Could not be found, and at the last mo ment the Linn county delegates stepped in and cast 17 votes for Jeffrey. This was a victory for P. H. D’Arcy, D. J. Fry and John Gray, who were not delegates, but who came to the state convention working for Jeffrey’s nomination. A report cornea from San Francisco from wh it is considered quite a reli ible source that there is to tie a radical change in the train service of the Southern Pa cific of this division The change will give Redding three trains daily, one of them being the “local” train that was formerly run into this city. According to the report as it reaches Redding, the Southern Pacific Company intends to put on a ’’flyer” be tween San Francisco and Portland on the first of June, when all the rumored changes are to take place. The “flyer” will cut down the time between the me tropolises of Oregon and California to thirty hours. The only stops that will be made by this train as far north as Ashland will tie at Sacramento, Marysville, Chico, Red Bluff, Redding, Dunsmuir and Ashland. The “flyer” will displace one of the ex presses now in service. A second express will run through, making all the stops as now made. The third train will run over the “west side” by way of Woodland and Willows and stop at Redding.

Nickell Stumbles in His Schemes to Land Into the State Printer?—Sher win Deprived Jackson of the Honor of Being County’s Representative Portland Telegram.] It was for secretary of state that the first opportunity came for taking a bal- l"t. Thomas O’Day, of Multnomah, nominated D. W. Sears, of Polk, saying that Sears would run well with Cham berlain “We are not here to nominate one man,” said O’Day, “but an entire ticket, a ticket which shall be elected in June.” William Smith, of Baker, seconded Sears’ nomination, and a motion was made to give Sears the»unanimous nomi nation. R. G. Smith, of Josephine, demanded a point of order, and declared that it was repugnant to cU*n»<»en*i.io principles to close nominations before it was known whether any others were to be nomina ted. His point of order was sustained. Smith, in a fiery, spread-eagle speech, referred to the fact that he was a convert from republicanism, and in a glowing nomination address he placed the name of E. A. Sherwin, of Jackson, for secre tary ot state. He asked for the nomi nation of Sherwin on behalf of southern Oregon. On behalf of Lane county, Lark Bil yeu seconded Sherwin’s nomination. K amath county and Yamhill also sec onded Sherwin’s nomination Welch, of Multnomah, wanted half an hour recess to discuss nominees, as the office was next in importance to that of governor, but he was voted down. There being no further nominations, chairman Stillman declared that the nominations were closed, and instructed the counties to prepare their ballots, as the vote would be taken by counties and not individually. A roll call of counties followed, which had this result: Sears—161. Sherwin—101. There were 262 votes cast, 132 being necessary to choice. Sears won the nomination by 60 votes. Sherwin, of Jackson, as soon as the vote was announced, moved that the nomination of Sears be made unanimous, at which there was applause. Mr. Sears responded to cries of “speech” saying: “It cannnot be said now that there was not a contest in this conven tion.” Sears disti"guished himself by sitting down without attempting a protracted rep y.

Lee, - ■— ■ ........ ASHLAND, OREGON N Portia1 d Oregonian: The desire of harles Nickell, of Jackson county, to be nominated for state printer smashed the democratic slate in two places yesterday, when the delegates reconvened to finish their work yesterday. In order t-• side track J E. Godfrey, of Salem, who was a warm favorite for the nomination, Nickell set Lark Bilyeu out of the race for supreme judge, and brought about the nomii ation of B. F. Bonham, of Salem. One Marion county man on the ticket, he believed, would put the finishing touches on Mr. Godfrey’s fate. But it didn’t. The nomination of Judge Bon ham set all kinds of machinery to work ing, and it worked with a whlrtr. F A. Sherwin, also of Jackson, had been slat ed for secretary of state, and following the same reasoning he applied to the Marion com ty matter, Mr. Nickell lent his support to Mr Sherwin’s opponent, D. W. Sears, of Polk The Sherwin people came back by pulling for Godfrey, .and as a result Mr. Nickell was third man in the race when, after a second ballot, the nomii ation of Godfrey was made. In other respects the ticket went through as slated, as will be shown by the list of nominees printed above. Sherwin and Sears made a lively fight for the nomi nation of secretary of state, but the Jack- son county man was not favored by the 41 stanch democrats from Multnomah, E. V.

The Oregonian in an able editorial on the proposed constitutional-amendme t to be voted on in June, sums up as fol lows: The referendum is an obstacle to too mucli legislation; to surreptitious legis lation; to legislation in particular inter ests; to partisa machi e legislation, and to boss rule. The dread of innovation, received as a first impression whe • the change to this system is proposed, will pass away upon examination of it. It has been found, to the confusion of, radical leaders, that the measures they most prized have been negatived by the electorate. Of course, there would re main a vast variety of legislative meas ures which it would not be deemed necessary to submit to a direct popular vote. All plain and simple acts, or most of them, short, direct and easily under stood, would pass from the legislature directly to the statute book; nut the referendum would be ordered in all cases 1 where there was serious opposition or doubt; that is to say, in those very cases which ought to receive widest examina tion and be subjected to most searching discussion. Impo tant legislation would thus be lifted above the schemes of in- ( terested perso's, above the dominion of party or partisan leaders; legislative jobs would be mi- imized and a check nearly absolute would be put upon profligate legis ation. These are some of the advantages The disadvantages are such, mainly, as would be urged by those who habitually seek benefits through the present legis lative system, and who object to relin quishment of existing opportunities. The Oregonian believes that upon study of the subject by the people this amend ment will prevail; but it must be re membered that in this, as in all similar cases, a majority of the electors voting at the particular election in which an amendment is submitted, must be re corded for it, in order to carry it.
