It I has long been the desire ot a majority I of Yamhill county's citizens to vote up on this question and iiiimeionsattempts have been made before to secure the right, but without sm ecss. Now that the bill has passed both houses, and on ly awaits the signature of tlie governor to become a law, it seemsjhat the mat I ter will he definitely settled at last. The voters of this county petitioned the leg islature to grant tliein tlie right to vole upon this question; at a special election in June, but a« a bill bad already passed that honorable body, causing a special election to be held in November to vote upon other important measures, the county seat bill wasamemled in the s -n No official act of any governor of Ore ate so as to read November instead of Juno.

Much has been said with reference to transfer; to btl Id a bridge, a passenger how the Yamhill delegation would vote depot and a freight depot and to expend on the bill in the legislature. We are two or three million dollars. If the bill pleased to say the bill as passed was should fail through tlie governor’s veto supported by the entire delegation from and an indignation in?eting were called, Yamhill, ami was supported by both po i day’s notice would suflieo to fill the litical parties, the vote being unanimous Mechanics* pavilion with citizens eager to express approval of the bridge meas in both branches.
