A special to tho Times from Washington sayH a vote on tho free coinage bill will probably not be reached in the senate today, notwithstanding Senator Jones gave notice that he will ask the senato to sit until tho vote is taken, even though it is not taken all night. Tho vote will probably be reached to-morrow or Saturday. There Is little doubt but the bill will pass the senate, though by a slim majority, probably not to exceed three, or at most five. There are certnln senators on both the Republican and Democratic sides who make propositions favorable to silver, who will ily tho track when tho test comes. These Include Squlro of Washington, McBridc of Oregon, Thurston, of Nebraska, Baker of Kansas, and Faulkner, Mills and Gordon, Democrats. The margin is so close as to render silver men un easy. MITCHELL. ON SILVEK. Washington, Jan. 30. Mitchell, of Oregon, today addressed tho senato on the bond bill. Mitchell said that the question presented was whether It was necessary to Increaso the bonded indebtedness to maintain tho gold standard, or by a greater issue of silver, to restore It to Its primary place as money of tho constitution. Mitchell pointed out that our foreign indebtedness during tho past 25 years had greatly increased. "There nrc in my judgment two remedies to bo applied, viz: first, our shipping laws must be amended, our merchant .marine must be encouraged and built up and wo must become our own car riers. And, second, we must legislate to increase tho value of our export commodities, so as to enable us to meet, reduce, and, if possible, wipe out the debt which today makes tho people of this country virtually slaves to the money lenders of Great Britain. Wo must reduce our expenses, and instead of Issuing now bonds, stop incurring obligations abroad, and in crease, if possible, tho value of our commodities, including silver, with which to meet this indebtedness." As to the bond bill as it camo from tho house, ho said, "I decline to give further authority to tho secretary of tho treasury to issue additional bonds in time of peace. lam unwilling un der any plea of necessity, to aid tho party to which I belong in doing that which as a party It has emphatic ally condemned in others." Jackson Populist. Jacksonville, Jan. 30. Tho Popu lists, who were successful at tho last election, are divided upon tho ques tion of taxing railroad property in this county. Unless tho division can be united, which now seems to be im probable, tho Republicans will almost certainly carry tho county. Tho con servative element in tho Populist party has found it Impossible to meet the unreasonable demands of the radicals and, should the nominations fail to give satisfaction to the latter, a disastrous bolt is by no means im probable.

Her mann in tho hoiisc, and Mitchell, In tho senate, have introduced hills, or proposed amendments to the river and harbor bill, Covering all tho Improve ments for Oregon. It probably gives some promlncnco to tho Improvements to have them presented In this way, and calls tho attention of congress inoro directly to thoblg projects on tho Pacific coast. Mitchell's bill, however, will first go to tho comtnlttco on transportation routes to tho seaboard, where ho is sure toworkoutra favorablo report., This will give tho project some stand ing in the senate.

Nobody every expected Governor Lord to call an extraordinary session of tho legislature, but ho probably Is misinformed as to tho drift of public sentiment throughout tho state. If tho taxpayors of Oregon do not want an extraordinary session, it Is because they distrust tho legislature, and do not bollova that It will do any mora now to cut down expenses and dimin ish tho burdens of taxation than It did last winter. This distrust Is an evil omen for the next election or for such members of tho legislature us shall bo candldatesagain. Orcgonlan, Tho peoplo distrust tho Scott- Slmon gang. Unfortunately, Scott and Simon cannot Ik readied by tho people. Keep tho rascals from Multnomah county ut homo Mr. Scott, and givo us a legislature presided over In both houses by men who aro not under their control, nnd wo will guarantee you a session of tho legislature that will keep its pledges.

It will Increaso the expenses of tho city $300 a month, Interest and all to Unish It. But It seems It cannot bo stopped without a lawsuit. Tho city could not stop It without paying contractors a blgprlco to throw up tho contract at least $5000.

Governor Lord Says the Peo ple Do Not Demand It, VICTORY FOR THE PEOPLE, Oregon's Executive Says It Would Be Unprofitable. Thoro will bo no special session of tho legislature. Governor Lord gives to the press the following authori tative statement on the questien: "Thoro will be no extra session Thero Is no public sentiment asking for It, nor have I any assurances, If I should call one, that Its results would Justify tho expense. 1 have received numerous letters front tax payers and Influential citizens througout the suite, nnd, barring two exceptions, the sentiments expressed In such letters nro averse to an extra session. I have also talked with soveral mombers of tho legislature, and received letters from somo others, and, with ono exception, they nro nil opposed to an extra session, or believe that It would not bo productive of any good. I am In rccolpt or somo thirty papers from different nortions of tho stato, nnd they also with tho exception of tho Orcgonlan nnd Tele gram and two others, express vlows against an extra session. Taking theso views as representative of tho public thought In their different localities, they Indicate that thoro is no publlo sentiment nsklng for an extra session, nor do thoy afford any assurnnco that tho results of a session would Justify its cost. Under such circumstances, It would bo neltktr-" wlso nor profltablo to call nn extra session, nor shall I call ono." Tho abovo declaration Is a distinct victory for tho people Tho only call canto from tho rlngstors at Portland.

But when Bancroft's corporation bosses saw that a special session would result In an uprising of tho peoplo to demand real reform measures they pulled him off nnd dropped tho subject like a live coal, Fifty thousand Oregon citizens would havo como to Salem to see that such a spolcal session was not 11 mere politi cal farce, or else deal with tho sham reformers as they would deservo If they again assembled on pretense of relieving tho peoplo nnd proceeded ns they did last winter to relievo them only of their hard cash. Governor Lord drew. the lino on tho Portland gang and their camp-followers over tho stato Just right. Ho said, I will not call a special session unless tho people demand It. Thoy soon learned that if a people's special ses sion wcro held It would go hard with them, This leaves tho fight for re form measures In tho hands of tho people.
