as from the REcoRD-UNIoN
Compulsory vaccination would be an excellent
thing, and Il fine or imprisonment would suita-
bly, reward the father who exposes his children
Ito the estience. 1t might be made he duty of
sschoo teachers to have all pupils vaccinated at
the expense of the school fund. But to shut
tout unyaccinated children from the schools IS u
queer thing.
1t then says the bill is scarcely more
sridiculous thon these comments upon it.
Without taking up the issue at all, and
Hcorcerning which we have convictions, it
serves our present purpose to say that
the REcoRp-UN1oN did mt say what the
Mail attributes to it.

The Legislature-Clay Pigeon Shooting
Citizen Drowned.


Citizen Drowned.
PoRTLANp, February 21st.-The Legisla-
ture not only failed TO elect Senator, but
neglected to pass the appropriation bills,
and an extra session will have to be called.
The indignation among the people of the
entire State is very great.
A shooting match at clay pigeons, for a
diamond medal and the championship of
the northwest coast, took place to-day, and
was won by William l.. Curry. The sixteen
best shots in Oregon and Washington Ter
ritory took part in the contest
Martin Nett and companion were upset
while boating on Lake Union last night.
Mr.. Nett, German butcher of this city,
was drowned. His remains have not been
found, though men have been dragging
the lake all day.
The Senatorial Middle.
Moody was interviewed tonight at the
Executive office by your correspondent, as
TO whether he would appoint a Senator or
call Il special session. He sad he had not
given the matter consideration hardly
knew whether the legislators wanted Il
Senator, since they utterly failed to elect
one in forty days didn't know what his
powers were in the premises, but would
look up the matter; had contemplated call
ing a special session; didn't see what claim
Senator Slater would have in holding over
and thought the Democrats needn't expect
him to retain him in his office. The Demo-
Gratis are jubilant over the fact that the Re
publicans have done nothing, and are hope
tul of coming victories in Oregon.
