STATE OFFICIALS.
SHOULD DO HIS DUTY.

The senate bill for the portage rail-
road provides for board of state officers
the governor, treasurer and secretary
of state-as commission to have charge
of the work of the construction of the
said road. The governor, at all times
willing to do his duty, has expressed his
willingness 10 assume his share of the
responsible as has also the state treas
urer. Secretary Mcbride from the cause
allow his name to be used in that con-
nection. The people of Oregon will de-
mand that Mr.. Mcbride do his duty in
this matter. He has the confidence of
the entire people and has no right to
jeopardize the success of the bill by his
refusal. He was elected by handsome
majority and possesses the confidence of
the people to a large extent land now the
time has come for him to show himself
worthy the confidence bestowed on him.
The physical part of the work will not be
too heavy demand on him, as the rest
of the state officials are men of force and
energy and with Mr.. Mcbride as coun-
cellor will push the work through to
completion. The people do not want
any substitute for Secretary Mcbride
and will not have any. He is equal to
the work and the whole people demand
in this emergency that he do his duty in
this matter and allow his name to remain
as one of the commissioners to build the
portage road. There is responsibility
% l., l.
this matter and if one declines to act it
complicates matters and makes the
others hesitate to serve, and we feel that
every officer should assume his share of
the responsibility.

STATUS OF THE BILL.

The bill for the portage road at the
Cascades passed the senate with the
names of the governor, and state treas
urer as commissioners to have charge of
the construction and operation of the
railway. The name of Secretary of State
Mcbride as the third commissioner was
by common consent and at his instance
left out. When that document came be-
fore the house it was the intention of the
friends of the bill to insert the name of
Secretary Mcbride, but that of private
individual was placed thereon instead.
This is regarded as blow at. the life of
the bill and will undoubtedly be the
means of defeating it, as the state Off
cials are regarded as the proper persons
magnitude. A strong movement is
under way to reconsider the action of
the house and restore the name of Secre-
tary Mcbride, as desired to the original
bill. The matter will be brought up be-
fore the house committee for hearing
Monday night and strong effort will be
made to have justice done at that time.
In that connection the following petit
ton is being circulated in The Dalles
and will be presented to the committee
when it meets:
To the Honorable Legislative Assembly of
the State of Oregon:
We, your petitioners, would most res
pectfully petition your honorable body
to insert in senate bill No. &, now before
you for consideration, the secretary of
state as one of said commissioners and
we protest against inserting anyone else
in his stead.

A bill is before the Washington legis-

compel the Union Pacific to operate it's

When Benjamin +. Butler made ar.
rangements for the publishing OF his
book, the Jewett Publishing Company
claimed to have received the contract.
Whether or not Butler had fully con.
tracted with the Jewett firm, he saw
proper afterwards to give the contract
to A. NJ. Thayer d Co., of Boston, il
having been represented to him that
the Jewett firm was not reliable.
When Butler changed the contract
the Jewett firm within the last tel
days went before the courts and got
out restraining injunction to pre-
vent Butler from giving the contract
to any other firm. The case is now
hung up in the courts where it will nc
doubt hang until Butler has his book
out.
The action has caused some anxiety
on the part of those who have sub
scribed for the book, they not knowing
whether IL would make its appearance
under the circumstances. On behalf
OF the hundreds of subscribers of this
city, John c. Bryant, the interchangeable
agent for the book, wrote to Genera

About 0 O'Clock yesterday morning
q man walked up to the Waterman al
the Pennsylvania crossing of the Bal
timore d Ohio railroad, with his left
arm torn off above the elbow, severa
front teeth knocked out, and his jaw
broken. He was under the influence
of liquor, and fell asleep In the watch
box. not seeming to be conscious o.
the fact that he had lost his arm. Al
tramp but upon looking at him closely
saw that it..was John Smith, about &c
years OF age, who resides at Silver,
brook. DR.. John Palmer was summon
ed, and had the man removed to the
Delaware Hospital, where his arm was
dressed, and several pieces Of his jaw
bone removed.
As his arm was found at Seventh
street 1t is supposed he was at that
point on his way home when he was
struck,by the engine of a train that
passed about o'clock. He may how
ever have been asleep on the track, as
he has no recollection Of when or where
the accident occurred.
DIR. Palmer was asked last night why
the man did not bleed to death. He
replied that the nature Of the injuries
twisted the blood vessels and allowed
flow OF blood until Smith laid down
in the watch box. The heat there
softened the clot and the blood was
again flowing when the physician ar
rived.
Although Smith is seriously injured,
the physicians have every hope Of his
recovery. He Is employed by the
Brandywine Granite Company, and is
o widower with two children.

The Supreme Court Convenes.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 1.-THE Supreme
Court of the United States began its
October term at'noon today. Chief JUS
tice Fuller, who is at the bedside of his
daughter in Chicago, and Justice Gray,
who is recovering from an attack of ty-
phoid fever, were not able to attend.
The absence of full bench will prob
ably cause the postponement of several
cases of Importance before the court.
Among the cases of such Importance are
the Sayward case, the lottery cases and
several suits brought by importers To
rest the validity of the Mckinley tariff
sct. These will, it is believed, 20 over
late into November. The opening OF
the court today is merely formal, mo-
lions to admit attorneys being the only
business that will be transacted. After
Chat the court will adjourn and then
call in body on the president, a cere.
nony never omitted on openi, D days.
Tomorrow the court will begin tne reg.
ular call OF cases on the docket. These
cases number 1895, greater number
than was ever on the docket at the be-
INNING of term.
