MODERN POLITICS.
The legislature has been afflicted
with about the worst piece of machine
politics, under liowerman and his
gang, the state has ever experienced.
A sample was the effort to provide for
an assistant secretary of state, so that
the office may be formally run whether
the real secretary is ever there or not.
Brownhill showed up the real animus
of the business, when he said:
"Looking back behind the scenes.
I find that the men behind this all are
members of the Oregon machine. It
emanates purely from a political in
trigue. I have not been approached
by any of the governor s agents, as ha
been charged has been done.
"It is simply a case, gentlemen,
where one man has been whipped in
running for ollicc and does nol know
when to mnt. I he people did nol
want him, but he is not satisfied to ac
. cent the conditions, lie is now under
' taking a scheme to discredit the gov
ernor. "They say Secretary of State Ben
son has made the request that this bill
be nasscd. If I were in Benson a place
and could not care for the duties of
the office I should resign. The people
did not know at the time they elected
him that he was too ill to take care of
the duties. There is no sentiment in
men on a proposition of this sort. We
have been sent here for the express
purpose of conducting the state as we
would our own Business, and it in
employe of any business house were
ill for a year he would be let out. It
would perhaps be done with regret,
but nevertheless it would be done, and
that is the policy which the servants of
the people should follow."
Then Fonts got in a few live words:
"I have not been elected by the
Democrats or by the corporations. But
1 do say that because the Republicans
have passed just such measures as
these that they have been repudiated
by the .people through the election of
ii Democratic governor. lust so long
as the Republicans pass such meas
ures, with an emergency clause at
tached, depriving the people of the
right to pass their opinion on the mat
ter just so long will you continue to
elect Democrats."
The bill was fathered by Bowcrman,
Thompson and the rest of the gang
that have been bringing discredit upon
the legislature.
It is modem politics with a venge
ance. NAMING A FAIR STREET.
Down in San Francisco already
there has begun an interesting hunt
for a name for the amusement street
for the Panama fair. All big fairs
have had interesting names for the
popular amusement street. At the
Lewis and Clark fair the Trail was
where everybody met for a good time
and to spend their money. At Seattle
it was Pay Streak. Now for a popu
lar name for the greatest of all the
fairs, that of 1015, San Francisco, in
honor of the completion of the I'ain
ma canal. The Examiner has a few
Tow rath, Culebra Pass, The Grot.n,
Grizzly Hear, etc One man sarcasti- j
eallv suiruests that Grafters Street
would be appropriate. Whatever it is I
called it is entirely proper that there
be such a street, for at all biir fairs 1
it has been found necessary to have
this kind of a street for the fun part ,
of the fair. They furnish more than
that, many features of great ingenuity
and startling reality. Albany will un
doubtedly send a good many people
down to the Golden Way,

SATURDAY NIGHT' THOUGHTS.
Oregon's legislature has continued
to do business down near the asylum
the past week, mostly along pettifog
ging lines, it has even had the au
dacity to attempt to undo some of the
work ol the people, intcrtering with
the supreme power of the state. If the
legislature can repeal a law passed by
the people then there is nothing in the
referendum and initiative. But there
is, and no legislature has such an au
thority. It is small politics to attempt
it. Very little has been done of im
portance in a general way, though con
siderable of a special character has
been done. Some live referendum
questions will probably be up before
the people at the next election.
in congress the great question up
has been reciprocity with Canada, with
numerous ideas on both sides. Cer
tainly the business relationship be
twecn the U. S. and Canada should be
of a close order, and the occasion calls
for reasonable provision for recipro
city, . In congress an eltort is being made
to provide for a rate ot 4 cents a
pound for the advertising sections of
magazines. If this passes it will sun
ply mean that the people will pay tin
difference. There is no more occasion
for a high rate on the advertising part
than any other. They should all go
together as one production, and the
effort to make a distinction is not fair
nor based on good reason.

SOCIETY.
A good sized audience, mostly of old
timers were at the U. P. church last
night for the purpose of organizing a
Linn County Historical socie'y. A. C.
Sehmitt presided.
Geo. H. Himej gave an historical talk
about Linn county fnll of great interest.
He told about attending school in
1854 with C. Paltison, of Oakville, who
was present and an incident that Hap
pened. Originally thiB was the Champoeg
District. Linn county was formed off
it and reached east to the Rockies and
south to California. In 1851 the present
boundaries Were established. The county
was named after Dr. Linn, a U. S.
senator, who did splendid work for
Oregon. He died in 1843.
The first Linn county election wpb
held June 5, 18-18, when H. J. Peterson
and Anderson Cox were elected reure-

Rev. Wilson Blain was edtior of it for
awhile in 1850.

president of the senate in the first leg
islature in 1858. In the election for the
