AN editorial in the Pendleton Tribune
of February 28th contains more brazen,
false, outrageous statements concerning
the wrongdoings of the legislature, and
the responsibility thereof, than its foster
mother, the Oregonian, dares to express
It did not attempt to follow up its state
ments by proof, contenting itself with
lying generalities. 1t endeavors to fix
blame for all harmful legislation and
failure to pass good bills upon what it
terms the "bolters.'' One expression in
particular, shows the effrontry of this
petty organ of the Simon machine: "For
the non-fulhllment of every promise
concerning the smashing of unnecessary
commissions" it says, 'the boilers are to
blame" That paper knows that state
ment to be absolutely false. The house
contained twenty-seven of the thirty
boilers. In fact the boilers controlled
pretty much all legislation of the house.
The senate was controlled by the Dolph
men, only three members Of that body
being identified with the anti-Do1ph
movement. There was general demand
all over the state for repeal of the act
creating the railroad commission. A bill
for this purpose passed the house and re-
ceived the unanimous support of the
boilers. In the senate, however, it was
given dose of Simon's sleep dope, and
thereafter knew no awakening. This lit
tie cuckoo paper says the bolters are re-
sponsible. Since the Legislature ad-
Journed, the Oregonian has been wiser
and does not directly charge the so-called
crimes of the Legislature upon the holt
ers, but its little s1op carrier, ignorant of
facts and devoid of honor, is attempting
to help the real Instructors of honest leg
islation, in their cry of 'stop thief"

A LITTLE enterprise on the part of peo-
pie of Yaquina would result in the estab-
lishnent of a important industry and add
materially to the resources of the county.
From the Sound is shipped weekly to
the Portland market five tons of fish and
from that market. There is no reason
why Yaquina should not enter in COM
petition with the Sound fish industry.
They can secure as favorable express rates
to Portland as the Sound people, and
of course the Yaquina fish are preferable
as they arrive in better condition. A
steam schooner should be provided for
the business, which will enable those en-
gagged in the enterprise to be independent
of either wind or tide. It is estimated
that by careful management the fish will
net two cents per pound. If the business
is properly attended to and the supply
can be depended upon Yaquina could
soon control at least three-fifths of the
trade, or six thousand pounds per week.
The industry would require the employ.
1nent of several men throughout the year
and would net the promoters of the en-
terprise $500 per month, or $1,000 an
nually. A shrewd manager would soon
develop direct trade with several val.
ley towns, and in other ways enhance the
Importance of the industry. Probably
when the new organizers of the Oregon
Pacific are assured of the confr1na.
ton of their purchase, they will take the
matter in hand and aid any enterprisipg
company in establishing the business.
Nature has literally endowed Yaquina
with resources; what she needs is push
and enterprise on the part of her citizen ms
to enable her to make the best of her
opportunities.

TIE Oregonian will probably not be
found in the republican ranks next
spring. 1t will take the gold cure" and
lead the hosts of populism. 1t will then
be in its natural element. As calamity

BLAME RIGHTFULLY PLACED.

Among the leading republican papers
of the state which, like the GaZErTE, are
industriously working to place the blame
for the extravaganza of the recent legis-
lature where it rightfully belongs, is the
Hillsboro Independent. The following
editorial comment from the last issue of
that paper contains many irrifutable
statements and should be perused with
care:
cit seems to the Independent that the
Oregonian ought not to be too previous
in 1ashing the late legislature. Now, it
would come with good grace from this
paper because it is inclined to stand in
with the "faction;;" but for the Oregonian
to denouuce the members of the late ses-
sion is too much like walloping ones
friends. One act severely criticised is
the appropriation bill. Without saying
it is extravagant or economical let at
tention be called to the personnel of the
ways and means committee. That COM
naittee was joint body composed of ten
members, five from each house. As is
we'll known, the senate was dominated
and organized by that portion of the
party for which the Oregonian was spokes-
man. Simon was president of the SEN
ate and appointed the standing commit
tees. Wright, member of the 'fac-
tion," was defeated for speaker of the
house, but the house part of the COM
inittee was more identified with econo-
my than the other. On the committee
from senate were Bancroft, Patterson,
Galbreath, Dawson, all supporters of Mr..
Dolph, and Raley, democrat. From the
house were Paxton and Smith of Polk
Dolph men, with Wright, Gates and Hof
er of the ''faction'-six against three
| with Raley to hear from. Now, what the
| Oregonian "reformers" chose to put il
the appropriation bill went there and
there it stayed. 1t is much easier to con
troll appropriation to an economical
point with the items off the bill, thar
| when they are on it. If there have beer
extravagant appropriations then Mr.. ST.
mon in the appointment of the commit
tee is responsible for them. the Inde
pendent is not the only one that think
thus. The Corvallis GAZETTE last weel
had well written and timely article OF
this same topic, which appears in anothe
column. There are some other paper
in the state that might do we'll to thin1
before they join in what now seems to b.
a clamor that is popular.
The Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Or.) 1862-1899, 1895-03-14

FROM Sundry statements from Do1ph
papers and politicians it seems there will
be strong effort made to give the next
republican nomination for representative
of this district to some man other than
Hermann. These people will not sue
ceed. With them it is simply a matter
of revenge, because Hermann did not
fly to Dolph's rescue during his late d.
lemma. The state never had a better
representative, or more popular one
than Hermann. He has always been
elected by large majorities over strong
opponents. Afght against him, from the
source indicated and for the reason MEL
toned, will bring to his support strong
element which might otherwise not be
unfavorable to some other candidate.
People of Benton and Lincoln counties
are more interested in the prosecution of
Yaquina bay Improvements than in that
of any other work before congress. Mr.
Hermann has proved himself an active
and efficient friend of Yaquina, as is par
ticularly evinced by. his recent bill pro-
viding for re-survey of the bar by U. S.
engineers, called forth by the adverse re-
port of Capt. Symonds on the utility Of
Yaquina bay.
