ADJOURNING
Principal Legislative Routine,
An Organization in Sight for
Week.
Next
The senate met this 'afternoon and
adjourned over to Monday afternoon.
President Simon went to Portland
as usual over Sunday.
The house met at 11:30 and ad
journed to Sunday evening at 7:30.
Thn sessions trwlnv nnrt Ktinrlnv nnd
Monday are of a perfunctory character,
as it is not expected an organization !
can be perfected until Tuesday.
GOVERNOR LORD'S OPINION.
Governor Lord is In Portland ana
when asked whether he would call u
special" session of tho legislature, in '
the event of the failure of the house
to secure an organizutltn, said to the
Orcgonlan reporter:
. "Your inquiry touches a point that
I have not reached In my calculations.
I have been anxious that the legisla
ture should ellcct an organization, and
proceed to matters of legislation, and
I have been ready, when officially
notified, to co-operate with the legis
lature In giving the people remedial
legislation. The organization of the
legislature is a matter that
rests with the members of
the legislature, and not with
the executive department. If the
legislature shall fail to organize under
existing condition when the crying
needs ef the state are so well under
stood and legislation Is demanded In
the Interests" of the public good it
would seem to make it useless to, call
tho legislature together for sbeae'
time, or at all." "?'
This means that the expectation of
many of the absent members, that
they would soon be brought back to
Salem In special session, Is not well
founded. It also means, of course
that the governor takes no stock in
the sine die adjournment. He is
doubtless convinced that the reorgani
zation of the Davis house is the pro
per and legal method, and he wants
the'Jcglslatnre to go ahead ..ary prej
form ItsVork wltliouVltfrther delay.

MARION COUNTY'S TAXES..
Collection for 1896 Will Begin Early
Next Month.
Sheriff Wrlghtman Is making ar
rangements for the collection of the
1890 taxes as soon as the county court
turns the tax-roll oyer to him next
week. Ho Is having 7,500 taxrecipts
printed, and an equal number of du
plicates whlchjtYilt be kept instead of
stubs as is generally customary. These
receipts have several now features
which will prove a convenience to tax
payers. Provision is made in the
blanks for taking county warrrants
as pay for taxes, and the following
list of levies is printed in the body of
the receipt, which will always be
handy for reference:

for Hlddlei
The Drlvcr-Bcnsoti-Orawford-Rccd
aggregation gavo tholr first show
at the courthouse lu Roseburg and
each made the usual speech delivered
so often at Salem.
They did not meet with a very largo
crowd of supporters nor create a very
favorable impression. Reed made his
usual speech Interlarded with oaths
aua lost some good friends. Driver
claimed he was offered 950,000 to leave
the joint convention.
ANOTHER REPORT.
Rosehuro, Fete. 27. Special. Tho
push has been here. They Infested
our town last evening and held a push
meeting at the court house last night.
The whole thing was engineered by
the A. P. A. couucll. Official action
was taken In the A. P. A. lodge here
about a week ago, and full detailed
arrangements made to give the re
turning A. P. A's.a grand reception.
Mr. Crawford Is a prominent worker
In that organization here For some
reason Mr. Bridges did not show up.
He is given credit by his friends here
for still having a little self respect by
staying away from tho affair last
night. The A. P. A. street padders
made things llely yesterday after
noon working up a crowd. They
stopped everybody that came in their
way and urged them as Republicans
to turn out and niako tho Pops. sick.
It was the Mitchell gang trying to
bolster up a lost cause.and the A. P. A.
out-fit to secure public endorsement
of their champion. Tho Lane county
bull-fighter was on hand and said
that he could have made more thun
tho rest of tho small fry, "but he
would'nt. He said that Al Reed was
fully justified in using what profanity
he did. tills coming from Rev Dr. I.
D. Driver, D. D. of course blots out
all sin which tho swearing Reed may
have committed. For a llttle'whllo
Drlver-playcd Pope, und-'fofgapce tlio
profanity which has so disgdrtled de
cent people from one end of the state
to the othcr;,'but now as Pope Driver
has wiped it all out, Reed stands free
from the curse of sin. The Linn
county wind-mill was put in motion
and when ho got his legs, head and
arms all going he made quite a howl.
There was quite a respectable attend
ance, owing to the fact that the
early part of the evening was devoted
to hearing a lecture by a lady who
had previously advertised for a free
lecture at the court house.
Considerable of the time of the sev
eral speakers was taken up In heaping
abuse upon Representative Riddle who
was noUprcsenb to defend himself, but
this Is the course usually persucd by
cowards. There Is a strong sentiment
in this community, that in the end it
will be found that Hon. G. W. Riddle
is tho only representative Douglass
County had In the 10th Biennial ses
sion. It Is true that tho Mitchell
push which tried last Juno to defeat
him are trying to work up as much op
position 'so him as possible. Bull
fighter, Driver amused the audience a
short time by telling the stale story
about the fellow who stole and sold
the same pig to the same butcher three
times, and compared the stolen pig to
Hon. Lark Bilyeu. He failed to ex
plain about the thief.

AN IDEAL ESTABLISHMENT. '
What tho Racket Store Is to the Plain
People.
wfSalem'lmsa very good Illustration
of what tho so-called Racket store Is
to a community. Some five years ago
Mr., Barnes, of tho Now York Rackot
store, began here, nnd his wonderful
success has been a revelation to all.
He has not only established ono of
tho leading retail houses in Salom.but
1ms been instrumental in starting
several similar concerns In the smaller
towns, of Oregon. In fuct scores of
these popular stores have started'up
in the state since their advent lq Sa
lem. One of tho chief reasons for the
phenomenal success of the Now York
Racket store Is the uniform method
of treating all lines of goods and all
patrons. In tho first place, the profit
necessary for a Hying margin is uni
formly established and applied to
every article sold. In no caso is the
price fixed at what the urticle will
bring, but only high enough to meet
tho required profit, A motto of the
business is to sell the goods as lpw as
possible Instead of as high as possible
In addition to these points all goods
are bought and sold for cash, so when
you buy an article you have tho satis?
faction of knowing that you aro not
paying an extra profit to meet losses
caused by bad accounts.
In addition to employing all of these
well-established bulness principles
Mr.Barnes has a long-time experienced
and training which is the real back
bone pf tho business, Persons who
have once traded at the New York
racket store always remember the
courteous treatment received, and
feel confident that they have had
their money's worth, if not bought ut
prices a good percentage below what
many dealers charge for like goods.
