Only few bills of minor importance were antro- j fcas Leen n, aiatiliet absence, of exasper dnccd ia the Senate and both the morn-1 n,, delay and petty quarrelling whieb jng and J ternoon sessions were of but slmrt durftion. , Immediately upon convening the morning smioa in the House the bills passed at the last 'sion and vetoed l.y the Governor were taken up and iilose.l of witliin a. eodwarati vely hurt time. Tl. Lilts were live in num tr. Four of the bills were rejeeted, let II.

Bailey, "of Multnomah, made a little talk in favor of the bill in which he fullr exjlained the Governor's; posi tion upon th matter. The lill 1 was then frfi-ssed by rm -uurniimous vote. IT. B.

Throe of the bills were rejected by v.n unanimous vote but H. B. Z6 was iuip'rfcl lr a number of Kepresenta tivn who firmly believed that the bill was worthy of passage. One of those vorr much in favor of " the bill was Tho. V: Kay. of Marion. He took the. floor and declared himself in favor of the bill in a plain and unmistakable ' !'. 1 Juration.

Besides the lange number of bills introduced there were several im wrtant .resolutions brought to the at tent ion of the members of the House . Sneaker Mills' of Multnomah intro .dueod a joint resolution to adjourn the resent session of the Legislature on Fri-lav. February. 10, a weebj in advance ef the fortv davs allowed for legisja tion Tho resolution was referred to committee. While this premature ad inurnment would save the state some1' thing like $10,000. the opinion seems to prevail that there : is so ntuch. impor tant business to be "contracted that; dis tension at that time Would be imprae tirable as well as irapostdble. j The only item iof interest in the Sen ate rroiied out in the afternoon when 8. B. S, t'oe. eame up to be read the third time, having received the approv al, of the committee. Before it was read .however, on motion it was! laid on the table for future attention, i K B. 8 is to raise the age of consent fn.m 1 to 18 years.' An investigation mows that many memo - 01 ino sen ate are in favor of; the passage of, the bill if certain amendments are made. It is not known whether Coe will ree: ommend .the proposed amendments' or try to secure the passage of the bill as it stands. -- ' - The afternoon session in ihe lloune witnessed nnssace t several and the iBtroduetion of the smallest ' nuinlxrar, of bills of nv session of the present Leg islature. The. Representatives sceined h nave strained thCiniseives in pn-scui- mg hills in the morning and were re- perating after their strenuous efforts M previous meetings. , Steiner's Irrigation BiU. II. B. 1, Steiner, was passed by an inanimous vote as its passage was ex- pedite.l upon the urgent solicitation 01 we inhabitants of Klamattt ana w wonties. As the bill was a local meas Sf and one that did not affect ths in terests of the tdate in general, it engen dered no opposition and was passed by n unanimous vote.

My, tb Governor, provided there are no technicalities involved which might cause, other' action to be taken. ' One of the . moat noticeable and com mendable' features f f he House is the strict' businesslike method of procedure which ia maintained at ail. times. There is only too often common in legislative bodies. It is predicted that, the House will cstaldish a reputation. this year for rapidity of action and clean and satis factory lejrislation. M COMMENT. For Kctt Connties. The forerunners of a bitterl. and clofely wmtested county division war have puj:; in their appearance at the House f Represent ail ves. -While there are many who have ,not had fueir at tention attracted to the matter a yet, there are two forces quietly ai work, both with ,ihe determination tio obtain their tnd.. ; The countyof Wasco is the seat of all the trouble, a there are two sep arate faction endeavoring to -iiave the county divided, liast week Burgess in troduced a lill to have the southeastern portion of tha county separated, and with a portion of Crook countyr fornvt Jefferson county. clt is alleged that this is an attempt to prevent a furtaer di vision, . because" if one new county is formed another movement to again di vide the count would receive but little consideration. -, - Yesterday Iyne of Wasco, present ed a bill to form the county of Cascade, which would consist of the western one- fourth of the county of Wasco. The people in the vicinity of the proposed new district are anxious to succeed in their - effort, as they say ' it is badly needed. Tiin people of Dallas'the county seat, are much opposed to this divisirm and favor the formation of Jefferson county. 1 - -The proposed cascade county is known as the IFood River valley section and Is noted for. its fruit raising and lumber industry! The country sur rounding' Hi e Dalles is also Tenowned for its wheat and the productiveness of its eoil in- t"m- cultivation 1 of all prod ucts common in this 'part "of the state. The two sections are separated by two high nionntains and re conrtscted by rail and wagon road. The wagon road is said to be in Very bad condition and rarely used.' t'ne -expensive traveling on the railroad Cerng rbe only alternative fpr the inhabitants of the Hood River valley who xlesife'or who are compelled t"T mave 'regular trips to the county seat, j '' ' ' The strongest argument expounded by the Hood River propaganda i3 that as tEe section are distinctly opposite each other in relation to their natural resources and that" they should be di vided. By showing the diversity of the interests of the two sections, both in an agricultural and commercial light, combined with inadequate means of reaeTTTng Th Dalle without taking the trains.gjtfelood River people hope to get. their bill passed.!

Although Coverno Chamberlain ear ly yesterday morning sent n. message to the two houses in wjiuih he .tovk a de- euiea aittl tleterminea sta&a upon tbe referendum clause, ho later signed a bill with an emergency clause, attached. When the news had -fpread' throughout the State House that the Governor hod attached his signature to a bill eontain- ing an emergency clause, it created nojof mrenty-third Iegisiature, end of comment. II. B. 5, by Laws, which Was Blamed by the Governor, is a bill for a-n act to authorize a special tax ia Clatsop! for a period of several "vears for the! construction and firrnishin-? f a court! house. The bill was one' that needed! the immediate legislation that it. eeived and met the entire approval of the Governor.- The-bill Went into feet as soon as Signed bv the Governor because of its emerrreney clause. This i the first Bill passed, bv the houses inai nas ueen preseniect to t.ne uovernor ii . v i x i . it - and passed. Concerning his stand upo-i the refer endum clause " Governor- Chamberlain yesterday said to a - Statesman repre-1 sentative: "Emer'-ency clauses are all Jriorht when really needed'but nn ttianyl dius nave oeen ' lniroaucea lately con-i'g tuning an emergency clause when there was alsolutely' no excuse for it. Great care should be used by the Leg islature to avoid attaching an emer gency clause to any bill which is not clearly and distinctly for" the purpose of preserving the publie vpeace, health I or safety of our neode.t When. an I emerc-ency clause is rcallv necessarv II will sign the biuxwmaasatedito :meti but I cannot attach my ny-asme to bills, I no matter how meritorious: if. they eon - tain that clause entered wlthoatr .doe consideration of the rights of tho teo-1 tile." . . . ' . :- A number of bills were nnssed by the I fianafo rtj.. t I being measures applying to local con-1 ditions in different eounties in the state. S. B. 9, by Croisan, was passed. This bill is of interest to-Salem peo-j Tle. ! t remnvos frnm Vi Qfata Voir! Grounds a debt of 420.000. The state school fund held a mo.rtaa-?e for that - amount on the Fair Grounds. As the state school fund is irreducible,- Senator Croisan decided to take tcps to place tne rair ti rounds out of debt by an ap propriation. Its passage in the House and its signing bv the Governor i au thoritatively orexlieted. The House liveneo up considerably yesterday in the consideration of sev eral bills which were up for Kasac or shelving. Smith (Joseph! ucV was the instigator of most of the excitement, as he made several speeches in which lie became verv emphatic in- his declara tions and allegation-. Jagar Cornett. Vawter West and -Edwards all m-.le talks on the same subject, used. by. M r. Smith, but took an opposite view of the matter. The trouble resulted over the report or the committee which held II.'

On the vote taken 'forty-seven were "in fa vor of the shelving of the bill and ten against. - -..-. -t- r-. Smith made another sieech at the nf ternoon session when his H B. 19 came np'for passage -H.-B. 19 Ls to r-xroirtsi tbe publication of all -eompaign eontrt butions. Mr. Smith delivered one of his characteristic, impassioned addresses and stated his position upon the matter so clearly that he was heartily appland ed when he finished, Mr. Smith said that he expected his bill would receive but a small minority of votes, but his appeal seems to have won the hearts of .a number of the Republicans, as it received a large vote. Only ; thirty votes were east or the indefinite post ponement of the bill and. twenty -six; were against its being shelved, and as a result the bill was sentenced .to ob- scontyV?
