THE BUST uan always be found it GRAY BROS, Triumphant House in the Passes After Hardest Fight of the Session, On Reconsideration Has 3 Voles to Spare-Will Be a Law, After three hours of earnest debate that at times grew acrimonious, the Daly text-book reform bill passed the house Wednesday at 1 o'clock with three votes to spare. The result was received with prolonged applause. I'rotu tho opening prayer by Rev. W. C. Kantner to tho closing words or Stlllmun's eloquent peroration for the bill, It was the most earnest contest over waged before tho Oregon loglslu ture, and M10 right won against tre mendous Iniluenr-cs. At 10 o'clock S. R. Ml, the Daly text-book bill, cumo up under special order. Morton asked that tho bill be read again, and this was done. At tho conclusion or the reading Nichols asked for a call or tho house. Marsh, Maxwell and Topping wore absent. Arter Topping had been brought In, the rurthcr call, wus.dli-. pensed with. Morton asked that so 1110 ono who ravored the hill explain Its provisions. Young took the Hour anil explained how the bill originated. Was not. here trrvotc for tho bill-in opposition f to the American book company hut because ho thought It a good law. llo thought that tho people could rely on the honor and Integrity, or tho mini who has been elected as governor of the state, to miiko a proper si lec tion of.men for the toxtbouk commis sion, McQueen spoke hriolly In support of Hid bill. Stewart said that ho would vote Tor, tho bill because our tcUboks now wwt too much. Ho was Interested In this bill be cause the fathers and mothers and the children wore Interested In It. He niadon referoncothechlldien Hi tho gallary. Curtis endoavoied to con fuse linn by asking him to snouk louder as tho children wire duaf 1 mutos; hut the old man recovered ! himself Instantly, and caruu back with j tho reply that he cared not how deaf! they were, they and all children, were Interested In tho success or this bill. 1 Ho had faith that tin governor would ! make a pror.er selection or 11 commit slon. Hawsnn claimed the bill was solely in tho Interest or ono corporation; but ho would not answer many anxious Inquiries as to the nnino or tho cor poration. Flagg said it had been charged that this was a bill In tho In terest or Olnu and company. Ho tie kaovildgod this to bo true. Tho bill was In the intorost of Olnn anil com pany and of every otlior school book company as-against the Intero-t of only ono company. Those companies wanted a cluinco for tree competition, and thoir Interests wore with tho In terests or tho ponpla. A soniuwliiit lively coutrovoroy look plaeo batwoou Klagg and Hawsnn. I'lagg inado tho chargo that bribery had been attompted against the bill. This wut-JunipiMl at by tho opponents as tho bill as a uliaoee for delay. Mc Cullock morcd that a committee or bill because It creates u new conimls slon. Curtis endorsed tills objection to the bill. The appropriation bill was much too largo already. Claimed that the obJc3t of the bill was to put tho poor people of Oregon to an expense of three hundred thousand dollars for new books Nvhltney replied to Curtis. He said the gentleman was getting very economical Jit now. This commis sion would cost live hundred dollars every six years. All that was waoteti or the Ameri can. Rook Company was to lot ;go. Then If thatcomrmnv wnnld r.omnutn (-- A J - - I- I with other companies It could furnish books the same as any other. Whalloy objected to the bill on the ground that the salary of tho pro posed commission would not bo largo enough to place them above tempta tion In tho way of bribery. Moody and Curtis made a few more remarks, and then Farrell moved ad journment, It. being arter twelve, but 1 tills. was voted down. Stillman kept the legislators f rem I their longed for dinners for some time longer. He said ono or tho best fou Mi res or the bill was that tho pro- dosed bill placed tho responsibility far the text-book selection in the hands or 0110 man, tho governor, In stead or dividing it among forty-four dllTercnt men. At the conclusion or Stlllman's re marks, the previous question was moved, and a call of the houso de manded, Marsh, chairman commlttco on education, only being absont. mi: uor.L cam,. The bill was then put on final passage, receiving III votes, passing the houso with three to spare.
