FIGHTING.
To Shut Silver Republicans Out of the
Caucus,

To Shut Silver Republicans Out of the
Caucus,
Senator Alonzo Gesner, of Marion
county, declares silver Republicans
like Jonathan Bourne of MultnOmah
and H. L. Barkley of Marion shall not
be admitted to the Republican legis-
lative caucus.
1t is not known just where the line
will be drawn, but is said to be the
scheme of the extreme gold standard
men of the general assembly to shut
out all pronounced silver Republicans.
1t is feared they will not stand by
Senator Mitchell if he is the caucus
nominee.
The votes Of men like Bourne and
Barkley'will not be needed perhapsH to
elect Mitchell, but they are needed by
the Republican party TO pass good leg
islatit n. A legislature once elected
represents all the people and not alone
the party that has majority of that
body Good economical legislation is
worth more than party to the people.

DAMAGED
By the Mill Greek Floods.
State May Have a Bill Of $4,000
to 100000 to Pay

The state of Oregon is liable to
have litigation on its hands as re-
suit of the bursting of the Mill creek
dykes last Saturday night and Sun
day.
An effort will be made to pass a
relief bill through the legislature To
indemnify losers by the recent floods
from Mill creek.
The mill company's dam in the first
ward of Salem, raises the water to a
level with all the banks. The addi-
tional flood caused all the banks to
overflow and physicians say much
sickness is liable to follow.
The damage seems to have been
caused by both the Mill Co. and the
State Prison dyke built last summer
with prison labor.
A lawyer who has been counselled
with says the state did this damage
without benefiting itself particle.
The damage done is $4,000, that
the state may have to pay. II the
dyke is not removed it will damage
100000 before summer comes.
