The June number Of the Pacific
Northwest has an interesting
"write up" Of Linn county. It has
several handsome engrayings o.
points Of interest in Albany, and
gives statistics Of all the cities
towns and villages, pretty smuch
near Lebanon. 1t has no mention
Of Lebanon at all, but tells all about
Plainyiew. Albany gets the big
slice. The fellow who wrote the
article should come out to Lebanon
and see place where people are
prosperous, contented and happy;
where failures are practically un-
kn0wn;were the finest paper ismade
in the state; where beautiful and
delicious fruits abound; where the
best flower Of the county is made;
where the only excelsior works in
the county are working full handed
and thousand of cords of wood are
consumed annually; where the best
equipped electric light and water
company is located. In a word,
let this benighted scribe come to
Lebanon and see the only livetown
in the country.

Iris very possible that senator.
ial deadlock will deprive Oregon Of
any Legislation next year. The re-
publicans will have about sixty
members and the majority Of the
remaining thirty will be populist
The republican strength will be
about equally divided, and unless
they can get together it will be
impossible to elect. Verify it be-
gins to look as though the halls Of
the senate will be depopulated
through inability of Legislatures to
elect. 1t, however, will have the
good effect Of Fastening the time
when senators will be elected by
the people.-Wasco News.

THE June election in Oregon
should be abolished, but to do ST
it will be necessary to change OuI

There is no sound reason for keep
ing the election in June. There
are many for changing it to No
vember. Every presidential year
Oregon hes the trouble and expense
of two elections, where one would
serve all purposes as well.-MOro

solmnly pledged to the strictest

rageous bills" against which the
populists vowed vengeance must
cease. Remembering their cam
paign speeches Of hard times and
close economy, it would seem pretty
cheaky for the populist officials to
draw even their legal salaries. 1t
would be impossible to conceive
how they could ask the county to
pay deputy hire. Let the officials
remember to practice their motto
of special privileges to none etc,

THE OYSTER QUEsTroN.-Oyster
legislation is occupying much attention
in the Legislature. The move to es-
tablish board of fish commissioners,
which was at first bitterly opposed, Is
now likely to pass without dissent. as
will also a bill to survey the oyster
beds not already included in former
surveys.
The question at issue between Mary
land and Virginia fishermen and oyster
men is sought to be settled through a
joint resolution presented yesterday by
Senator Mason, OF King George. This
sets forth that the fishing laws of the
Potomac are inadequate to protect the
rights of persons in Virginia, and that
under the compact with Maryland they
are not binding until concurred in by
the latter State; therefore, the resolu-
ton asks that joint committee of the
Senate and House be appointed to in
quire into the matter, and request the
General Assembly of Maryland to ap-
point similar committee, with power
to sit during recess, take evidence and
to meet the Virginia committee at some
convenient point.
