OREGON DEADLOCK GROWS WORSE
Benson House Now Threatens to Go
10 Pieces.

Salem. Or. Jan. 2.-The only develop
ments today in the legislative deadlock
was the withdrawal OF Mlsner. democrat,
from the Benson house. This leaves only
% mem bers In that house. one short Of a
majority Misnsr's withdrawal came as
surprise to the Benson men. who are
forced from the position that n members
could organize and do business.
There are other evidences OF detection
In the Benson house. and the prediction
IS made that it Will only live a few days
longer. The final card was played today
by its members when they passed a res
olutiOn instructing the sergeant at arms
to notify members composing the tenn
porary organization to appear before the
bar Of the house tomorrow. These not!a-
cations we're served tonight, but they
were treated lightly by members. who
say the Benson house has no way to
bring them in for the reason that they
never qualified. II Is doubtless the in
tentiOn Of the Benson men, In the event
that the members do not appear, to de-
clare their seats vacant. They will then
be confronted with the old contention
that the seats can be declared vacant on
~ by the constitutional quorum OF ~
members. In the present expectation Of
the Benson house breaking down, IL Is
the plan OF the opposition TO come in
afterward and effect their temporary or
ganization. It Is hard to tell what effect
this will have on Mitchelrs candidacy
Those opposed say It W.. result In his de-
teat. On the other hand, Senator Mitch
ell processes to be very confident of re-
election

A BAR TO PROSPERITY
GOLD LEADERS WILL DROP AGITA-
TON OF RECENT CAMPAIGN.
Mark Hanna says "the Verdict III
the People Can stand Upon
Its Meritn.'

Cleveland. Ohio. Jan. T.-It can be
stated ON authority which can not be
doubted that the republican leaders have
decided upon a radical change of policy
In connection with the proposed eontinu-
alton of political agitation throughout
the coming four years. and that in its
stead the verdict Of the American people
in the recent presidential election and
the merits OF the incoming administra-
ton will stand alone. Immediately fol-
lowing the election many leading repub-
Leans throughout the country urged upon
National Chairman Hanna and the mem
bers OF the committee the absolute neces-
slty FOR continuing the agitation pursued
during the campaign Just closed. At nrsE
the members OF the committee were fuzzy
In accord with this idea but after ma
ture elaboration the majority OF the ma
ttona committee. including Chairman
Hanna, have experienced a change of
heart. 1t Is stated that this change of
front has only been reached after much
discussion between the chairman and the
members OF the national committee.
Within the past two or three weeks
there have been many members OF the
committee here in conference with Chair
man Hanna. and 1t Is known this ques-
ton has been earnestly discussed on such
occasions.
Mr.. Hanna. although one of the very
first to announce himself as In favor of
continuing the political agitation dur
ing the coming four years. has clearly
demonstrated his change OF views BY
frankly stating TO a representative of the
Associated Press:
Il am in favor OF stopping all political
agitation and permitting the verdict OF
the people OF the country to stand upon
its merits"
1t Is believed that a potent factor en-
tertng into the discussion and Anal de-
| cislon on this question Is the belief which
is apparently daily growing on all sides
that active political work on such a scale
as was mapped out by the republican
| leaders some time ago Is now and would
| continue TO be a menace to the return OF
| business prosperity. 1t Is stated that tbs
| original plans for the work assigned &c
Washington headquarters will be largely
| curtailed. though the ONCE may be main.
| Lalned for short time.
