Caucus Bill a LaW--Aberdeen
Normal Appropriation
Capitol Bill

Senators Shober and Cassill preci-
plated a warm fight in the senate at
Pierre Monday. In fact, but for the
intervention of some cooler heads
there might have been an unseemingly
fist fight. 1t all came about from the
action of the above named senators in
rising to a question of personal privi-
lege. In the majority report of the
committee on rules. referred to in this
paper as being the report against the
primary election law, the statement
was made that among the names
found twice attached to the primary
petition were those of two senators,
Cassill and Shober. Monday Senator
Cassill rose to a question of personal
privilege in behalf of himself and
Senator Shober, stating that he and
Senator Shober desired to enter a pro-
test against the imputation contained
in the committees report and request
ed that their protest be spread on the
records.
The protest recited how it happened
that their names appeared twice on
the petition, explaining the matter
fully and satisfactorily, but went fur
Their and stated that they had not been
given an opportunity to appear before
the senate committee on rules to ex-
plain it and that, so far as they knew.
the said committee had never held a
meeting nor had any notice been pub
Ideally given Of any such meeting of
the committee.
Senator Lawson rose to a point of
order, insisting that the gentleman
was out of order and he was instantly
sustained by Lieutenant Governor
McDougall, in the chair. The chair re-
fused to entertain an appeal, and Sen
ator Lawson moved an adjournment,
which was declared carried. The days
session ended in a sort of a .iangle. A
personal encounter between Senator
McQuillan and Senator Caseill was
barely averted as a sort of a wind up.
The affair has been generally char
acterized as a high handed proceed
ing on the part of the few who have
really run things in the senate
SENATE PASSES CAUCUS BILL
The senate passed the caucus bill by
a vote of 81 to 6 and it is considered
likely that it will pass the house.
This bill is about the same as the Hol-
man bill of which mention was made
in this correspondence last week:
The appropriation bill carries only
s26,UU for the national guard. AS a
result 1t is probable that the organiza-
ton in this state will have to be ma
terially reduced.
s22, 100 for 1905 and 22.9OO for 1906
are the amounts agreed on for the
Aberdeen normal.
HI CAPITOL BILL
AS finally amended the capitol bill
provides for the erection of a suitable
state building but the money must be
derived from the sale of state lands
and the amounts appropriated must
not exceed the funds on hand. This
seems to mean the slow and gradual
erection OF a capitol building at
Pierre. 1t also is intended to settle
the capital removal question for all
time.

Made Compromise.

It appears that there was a
possibility of a life-sized strike
over on Alsea bay of late between
the cannery owners and fisher
men. A late metropolitan ex-
change contained the following
paragraphs bearing on the situa-
ton on salt water;
Charles Gram, state organizer
for the American Federation of
Labor, returned this morning
from Alsea Bay, where he effect
ed settlement between the fisher
men and Elmore & Co., thus
averting what threatened to be q
protracted strike.
The Fishermen's Protective
Union of Alsea Bay numbers 100
members, and includes the bulk
of the working force over there.
On the opening of the fishing
season, October I, the union de
manded I6 cents for each silver
side salmon and 40 cents for eaci
Chinook salmon caught. Th'
cannery owners offered consider
able less, and no fishing wa
done until Mr.. Gram went owe
and brought the opposing force
together. The figures settled o.
are 2h cents for silverside an
IS cents for Chinook.

out on his visit to the claim and
tell the others, "You boys can
tell me where my claim is: I

mails.
Addison Longenecker resumed
the stand this afternoon for e
short cross-examination. He
had testified that he gave nc
mortgage to the defendant Jone:
on his claim, but the documen
was produced in evidence and he
admitted it was his signature
although he could not remembe,
having executed the mortgage.
On the register of the Toledo
Hotel, where the witness stayed
on his way to the Siletz home
stead, his name appears and atte:
it has been written the worc
"Roots," which was the neares
postofice to Longenecker's L claim
He testified that he did not write
that word and that he can onl,
write his name.
The defense objected to intro
ducing the register into evidence
admitting that the writing wa
not that of the witness, but MI
Heney insisted on getting it in
saying that he would show tha
the word had been written by tn
defendant Wade within the pas

"Portland" had been writtel
after the name of the witness an
later had been scratched out an,

LOVE is STRONG.
Cupid Plays Second Fiddle to
Revolver.

A short time ago we reprinted
a dispatch sent out from Tacoma,
Wash, the text of which was the
love affair of Frank Brown. 1t
is an old saw the ''course of true
love never runs smoothly" and
it is each day proving its truth.
Another dispatch from Tacoma
saw the light of day October 7,
which is as follows:
Leila Baker, the 16-year-old
girl who abruptly deserted her ar
dent lover, Frank c. Browp,
aged 29 years, two weeks ago.
after the latter had reached the
County Auditors Office and had
applied for a wedding license,
now wants her would-be husband
arrested on the charge of threat
ening her life.
A warrant sworn to by the girl
is in the hands of the police and
an effort is being made to 1ccate
the man, who, it is said, attempt
ed at the point of a revolver te
make the girl agree to marry
him.
Miss Baker, when she myster-
iously disappeared on the day oi
her proposed marriage, Septem-
Der IS, went to Seattle, where
she remained until a few days
ago, when she returned here.
She has since been employed as g
) waitress in a local restaurant.

out of Tacoma by the girl's

McBain Convicted

/ James II. McBaiu. rn,.r,c,i ~,
this city, who has been ON trial nj
Enterprise, Ore, charged with the
murder OF the frost brothers, two
men who had jumped his claim.
was found guilty Of murder in the
second degree, Saturday morning.
ana viii probably be given nfe
sentence.
The following dispatch to the Den
yer Post gives announcement of the
conviction:
Enterprise. Ore, May 90. H.
McBain, the railroad man of Grand
Junction. Colo, was convicted OF
murder in the second degree this
morning for killing Charles and John
frost, near West Groosman. an iso-
lated interior settlement in north
eastern Oregon. six weeks ago. He
will be sentenced Monday.
ia rather be hanged than 20 TO
prison for life, was McBain's bitter
remark as the sheriff led him away
dlleT the verdict
"McBaiu came from Grand June
tiou in March and located an unsur-
veyed claim in the interior of Wano-
wa county. Leaving a contract for a
cabin. he returned to Colorado for his
wife and child, intending to settle on
the sqUauer's homestead He was
notified that the frost brothers had
jumped his quarter section and came
back to Oregon post haste to drive
them of. When told the Trosts would
give him trouble, he said he was
sure shot. Developments showed he
was no boaster'
The news Of the conviction Of Ne
Balm was received with surprise and
regret by many friends of the un-
fortunate man. 1t was generally be
lieved here that McBain would be
acquitted. although there were some
who studied the case pretty closely
and expressed the belief that McBain
would be convicted
Witnesses for the prosecution
swore that McBain made threats
against the men before he left Wallo-
wa for his claim. and the prosecution
contended that the killing OF the see
ond frost was unprovoked and not in
self-defense Furthermore. the fact
that McBain. a stranger, went into
a strange land and killed two men
who were we'll known would in itself
make it hard to secure an acquittal,
no matter what the circumstances
were.
1t will be remembered that Nc
Balm was exonerated on the charge
of killing the first frost, by the coro-
ner's jury, but was charged with the
wilfull murder OF the second frost
by this jury.
McBuin had able lawyers TO defend
him. The Brotherhood of Railway
Traiumen employed John r.. Wyatt
of Portland, very prominent and
able attorney to defend McBuin. At
torney \. S. Cooley of Wallowa as
sisted Wyatt
The trial was in progress three
days and the jury was out only a
short time.
McBain and his wife and child
have the sympathy of many friends
in Grand Junction in their hour Of
trouble Mrs McBain and little
daughter were with the prisoner dur
ing the trial.
It is not known at this time wheth-
er an effort will be made TO secure
another trial.
c. II. Robinson of this city, who
went to Enterprise to testify in be
half of McBaiu. is expected home
