SILVER MEN UNEASY.
No Vote on Silver Bill Until
,'Tombrrow.
SEN, MITCHELL TALKS,
Shows Up the True Situation On
the Subject.
Denvrq, Jan. 30. 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. Two Steamers Launched.

Boat Hallway Bill. ;
Washington, Jan. 29. Senator
Mitchell Iim Introduced the following
boat- railway bill,:
"That there bo, and hereby is, ap -
proprlntedjluUf nny moneys in tho
trcasuryRotlTtherwlso appropriated,
tho Hitm of&KXW, In addition to the
amount herctoforo appropriated, for

mcntluif tlTO United States; pro
vided, that contracts may bo entered
into by tho secretary of war for such
materials and work as may be neces
sary to complete the present project
of improvement of the Columbia river
at that point by the construction of a
boat-railway, hi aforesaid, to bo paid
for as appropriations may from time
to time be matloby law, hot exceeding
In the aggregato 91,704,407, exclusive
of tho amount .herein and .heretofore
appropriated. 'J
Iftliia measure goes through it will
be:apart of the river and harbor bill,
ns must all other measures looking to
tho Improvement of waterways. 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.

Keep the Rascals Out.
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,

without paying contractors a blgprlco

NO SPECIAL SESSION.
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.
Tho prlmo mover was a mero corpora
tion stnlking-horso politician who on
tho ways and meanB commlttco of the
last legislature helped load up tho bill
with all sorts of Improper and ques
tionable Items, and entered a comblno
to provont tho bill being reported to
tho house for dobato and revision us
had beon demanded by tho governor
and tho house
Thero was for a tlmo danger of
this clement headed by Bancroft
forcing a special session. 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. Thoy have tho task beforo
them of electing a legislature of the
right sort.
