NO SESSION
governor ANNOUNCES THAT He
WILL NOT CONVENE THE
LDGILLATURE.
Saos the Purposes for Which. a
Special Session was Required
Should be Well Served by
Regular Session-O Other
News.

Salem, Or Nov 11-Governer r
Geer today announced his decision
not to call special session of the
Legislature, saying in substance that
no "extraerdenary occasion" exists.
In making the announcement the
governor issued the following
statement
"When the governor of a state
has been asked to call an extra
session of the legislature and de-
cides to deny the request, it is but
fair that he should inform the
public of his reasons although it is
not particularly his duty. I have
been requested by the Taxpayers
League and the officials of the city
of Portland, as we'll as some other
citizens to convene the legislature
in extraordinary session for reasons
some of which are purely local to
the city of Portland, and for others,
which if valid, would be i'm
portant to the state at large. Four
reasons have been urged for calling
special session Of the legislature.
towit: To provide state assistance
for the Lewis & Clark Fair, to en-
act law providing specific salar-
les for state officers, to formally
pass the city charter of Portland,
which was adopted by the people
of that city last June, and to make
provision for the enforcement of the
initiative and referendum amend
ment to the state constitution.

Washington, Nov 11-Oxnard
is here already fighting Cuban reci-
procity. He and other beet sugar
advocates recognize that in a treaty
with Cuba sugar is likely to be
given 80 per cent, instead of the
20 per cent carried in the bill,
which failed at the last session. As
this treaty does not have to go to
the house, it will require simply
two.thirds of the senate to put it
through. If the friends of Cuban
reciprocity insist upon action, they
can keep the treaty before the sen.
ate to the exclusion of all other
business, and SO pass it in spite Of
the opposition that may be engag-
ed.
The Oxnard interests have be-
gun their campaign early, as they
did before the las session, bnt they
are not so arrogant as they were
year ago.

IF I could achieve the depth of ex-
preston reached in Beethoven's
wonderful Ninth Symphony should
be willing to live his starved life. I
should be willing to be dragged from
my rest at night to practice long
weary hours at the command of my
unworthy father and the music master
he employed; 7 should be willing to
be forced that this same father might
coin wealth by means Of his child
wonder; I would accept even the grief
Of Deafness, if to my mental ear only
this one masterpiece might play itself
In all it's beauty; if with closed eyes,
head bent over my half-written score,
I could conceive the sublime addition
to Schiller's lode to joy; would ac-
cept eagerly all the discipline of his
hard life, If to the world might leave
this crown of all music.

IERE is wide difference between childhood toys

first topic appealed to them by recalling happy

delight; the second seemed vast and far away
