the selection of candidates, the peo-
pie themselves made the mistake, |
am proud to advocate this measure
believe IL is the wish Of the people,
and I believe in the principle OF let
ting the people have a voice In their
government. II is our duty to this
grand state to carry out this law, as
our constituents expects us to do"
Hunt, of Multnomah, said he be-
lieved Mr.. Marsters was not sincere
in opposing the measure, and asked
him to withhold his motion to have
the bill indefinitely postponed, so that
all present could be put on record in
their votes on the question.
Marsters denied any question as to
his sincerity, and expressed a doubt
as to whether those favoring the
measure knew what they we're favor
ing.
Mr. Hunt spoke in detail of the
Lockwood system OF election, now in
force in Multnomah county, and de-
clared II was not in the interest of the
people. I'VE need a stronger system.
The present one only gives one polit-
ical faction a fair chance against
another faction and the people have
little to say. This measure would cor
rect this defect, and It will mean q
cleaning out Of the corrupt politics in
Multnomah county, which pervades
the entire state. AS to the expense
1t will not be greater than that of the
scalp bounty fund we passed two
years ago, and this means more thar
all the scalp bountles under heaven.
Farrar and Mulkey opposed tn,
measure, and spoke Of the example
already made by which T. T. Geer re
reived $4,000 votes.
Brownell again spoke and ex
pressed surprise that this matter wa
so misconstrued. He explained hi
idea of the validity Of the claim OF Mr.
I Geer, ana Sdlu ne was NOteu AOl 40 q
Republican against q Democrat, and
not as a Republican against another
Republican There was no expression
under the present circumstances Of
who was the chosen candidate Of the
people.
Marsters concluded the argument
by saying: III the present system is
not direct, would like to know what
could be more so. Mr.. Geer was
placed on the ticket by petition of the
people, and II was entirely the voice
Of the people which placed him in his
present position. How can the dis.
Jinguished gentleman from Clackamas
vote for any one else, when he is so
greatly in favor OF this measure. If
we were all in favor of il, it would be
the duty Of everyone Of us TO go in
there at / o'clock and cast our votes
for r. T. Geer.

Nottingham's bill for the protec'

more far.reaching than may have been
supposed by many Of those who voted
for the bill. 1t prohibits killing or
catching in Oregon of any birds, ex.

more than that prohibits any one from
having in his or her possession, or
Offering for sale any wild birds, other
than a game bird. The sentence,
which is the most potent, and which

Of the ladies', is the following: mo
