special session Of the Oregon legislature.
The doubts are increasing as to the
quality Of things that have been done.

period OF the illegal holidays and the
people viii be glad to see legislative ae-
ton taken toward the confirmation OF
these ambiguous phases of procedure; 50
that the future viii be free from all
sense of insecurity and unhampered by
the vagueness now prevalent everywhere
There are immense values wrought IN
these unsettled conditions; values that
vastly outweigh the cost Of an extra ses'
sion of the legislature; and we believe

sional brethren over the state seem Il

thing. as the less-informed laymen.
The sooner the call is made the bet

taken the lead on the coast, and ar
hard at work unravelhng the snarls int
which they have drifted. 1t is the onl.
legal solution at hand for the problem
set up by the untoward season that il
we all hope, drawing to close.

And every wychelm seems a golden tree.

The good folk throng the craft from
