A change has come over the minds
Of the Portland politicians. A week
ago all who were opposed to a special
session of the legislature Now they
aresrapldly swinging into line for one.
All the Portland papers have had
interviews with Governor Geer and
give him a great deal of compliment
tary space, when a short time ago
most of them could say little good of
him.
The papers are printing interviews
with members of the legislature who
were against a special session, and
are now for It, Below we print views
OF two influential members. who have
changed.
The Journal has not solicited any
of the members personally for a spe-
cial session, but has done it's work so
far through petitions of the people.
The members are catching on.
portland Journal)
II is the general belief that Governor
Geer will call a special session OF the
legislature, to take up the matter of
the fiat salaries, the Lewis and Clark
appropriation and to consider the ini-
tiative and referendum.
The drift is in that direction. Some
who formerly opposed Il, now believe
that IL should be called.
The Journal asked John Gill and G.
w. Nottingham, members-elect OF the
legislature, for an expression of their
Views. Both favor the special session.
Mr.. Gill said:
II am inclined now to favor the spe-
clal session. At first, | was opposed.
Looking more thoroughly into IT,, be-
lieVe that the legislature should meet
before the new terms Of office bealn,
and place into effect the flat salary
matter. All offices were pledged to Il,
and are, in sense, bound by a con-
tract or previous agreement TO submit
to the constitutional salary limitation.
II favor the legislature taking up al
so the Lewis and Clark appropriation
at the special session.
AS to the initiative and referen-
dun, the referendum | believe to be
excellent but am in doubt as to the
iniative"
Mr.. Nottingham said:
Il favor the special session, for the
settlement Of the fiat salary question,
and appropriating money for the Lewis
and Clark fair
The people should know what their
officers receive, and that they do not
now know.
AS to the initiative and referendum,
have not given more than cursory at
tention to that, therefore have no par
tlcular expression to make on that
subject"

Before entering upon the summer

their good work In the past. Especial
ly do we thank the Democrats and
Populists and Socialists and Prohi-

Republicans to do what is right under
any given circumstances, and who can
always be relied upon to do what is

The people of all parties want what

Self-government by the people Is not
a failure, and there Is a larger faith

achieve still greater triumphs.

pursue personal aims, those who take
