their stead, thus pulling away enough

gon. Their complete and open expos
ure is only question of time.
Aside from the bribery proposition
the conspirators will try to have
statement No. l men resign in coun-
ties where there is a prospect of an
anti-statement candidate being elect
ed to succeed him.
Already this part of the game has
been set on foot and from we'll au-
thenticated sources it is learned that
feelers have been thrown out to see
what statement No. / men can be in
duced violate their pledges in this
manner. Any statement man who
resigns. under the circumstances,
will, of course, be open to the sus-
picion that he has been reached" and
has received his price.
The first move made by the plot
ters was an attempt to prevent state
ment No. men in Multnomah coun-
ty from declaring themselves. They
explained that by not committing
themselves, the statement No. l men
who will have to vote for Chamber
lain may be able to crawl out on
some technicality later. The Multno-
ma delegation has declined this rrop-
osition to a man. 1t was after this
first attempt to prevent the declara-
ion that bribery was undertaken.
So far as the statement No. men
are concerned, however, there does
not appear to be the slightest inten-
tion on their part to do other than
live up to their promise, and the
agents who have approached them
have received scant courtesy.

ATTEMPTS To BR|BE NEW LEGISLATORS

The Portland Evening Telegram
prints the following account OF bold
attempts to bribe statement No. l
members Of the legislature and set
aside the wishes of the people in the
election of United States senator:
Bribery and other pressure is being
brought to bear on statement No. l
members of the legislature. A con-
spiracy has already been effected for
the purpose of disorganizing the ranks
of the 80 statement No. senators
and representatives and thus defeat
ing the wish of the people as ex-
pressed at the polls that George E.
Chamberlain be sent to the United
States senate.
The information that bribery is be-
ing attempted is no idle rumor, for
it is known positively that at least
three house members elected from
Multnomah have been approached
How many more have been "felt out"
by the agents Of the conspirators is
not known yet, but at least three OF
the representatives-elect admit that
efforts have been made to tempt
them.

out by the electors. who have had lit

There is no doubt that the govern

That Bill on the Table.

Is the anti-sambling bill. ohicially
known as the bill to widen Benning road,
to lie on the Speakers table throughout
the session? 1t is credible that a
measure formally passed by both houses
and requiring. only the perfunctory ap-
prevail by the lower branch of immaterial
amendments adopted in the other branch
should be permitted to perish for the
lack Of routine consideration. OF course
1t is well understood that there is serious
opposition to this measure. 1t aims at
a large industry. 1t not merely affects
the local jurisdiction, but it will have an
erect as well upon other communities
Thus 1t was to be expected that. the in
terests involved would not yield tamelv
but would employ every known expedient
to prevent final enactment Still, the
local community is just as serious in its
intent to secure this legislative relief
from heavy burden as the other side is
in It's purpose to check the legislation.
