THE SUMPTER MINER
OREGON
SENATORS
SNUBBED
A Washington special, comment
ing ou tho rolutlotis between the Ore
gon delegation lu congress and the
Jidminstriitiou, says:
For tbo Urnt time in twenty three
years Oregon Mucin itself without
representation ou at least one of the
committees that handle tho rirer and
harbor bill, but to mako matters
worse Oregon will have no represen
tative ou tho houso committee on
industrial expositions, which is to
handle-the Lewis and .Clark- expoal
tlon bill ' '
Instead of securing rivers and har
bors, which he sought, or insular
affairs, which was olfercd him by
Speaker Cannon only a few days ago,
Congressman ileriiiiin, is girou uiem
nership ou the committees ou Indian
alfairs aud election of proaideut, vlco.
presidout aud representatives in con
gress, whilo WIlllimiHon is mudo a
mombper of Irrigation aud mines aud
mining.
Thoro is an iuterestiug story
connected with Hermann's failuro
to go ou insular affairs, offer tho
offer made him by Speaker Cauuou.
When ho learned that ho was .slated
for insular affairs, and not tho com
mit teo of his choice, Hormann
consulted with his colleagues, with
the result that the dolegatou resolved
to mako a last stand lu tho hope of
forcing him ou tho river aud harbor
committee.
"It was said if tho wishes of the
state should bo further ignored liy
tho speaker of the house, aud Dor
mant! should be further ignored by
the speaker of tho house, and Her
maun should bo denied tho one com
mltteo place most sought and of most
advantage to Oregon, this adverse
seutlmont at homo would ho strength
ened aud the chaucoa of carrying the
state for the republicans iu the elec
tion next year might bo materially
lessened. In fact, it was stated that
a continuance of tho policy of ignor
ing the wishes of tho peoplo of
Oroogn would very likely prove dis
astrous iu 1904.
On this ground the delegation
appealed to the presidout to iutoicede
with Speaker Cauuou to secure for
Hermann a , place on tbo committee
on rivers and harbors. The president,
of course, took no band in the mat
ter, but a copy of the delegation's
letter waa sent to Speaker Caunon,
with the remit that i Htrmann,- In
stead of getting a committee better
than Insular affairs, waa given one of
leas importance.
"For the first time l,n its history,
the state of Washington in the
present congress far outranks Oregon
in the committee places accorded its
members. In the Fifty eighth con
great the Pacific Northwest ' has no
representation on the public lands
committee of the house, and will
bare little to say in framing whatever
legislation is attempted to correct
the public land evils."
