Democrats Decide On
Public Utilities Bill
Caucus Favors Commission of
Five, First AppointiVe, Lat
ter Elective

A public utilities bill, providing for
! commission to be at first appoint
We and later elective, has been de-
ided upon by Democratic members
If the house and senate who have
1een caucusing for weeks on pending
.egislation, and will probably be one
)f the first measures introduced after
he legislature meets next Wednes'
day
Under the terms of this bill, the
commission will consist of five mem
oers, and the governor will be author
.zed to appoint the first commission.
These members will hold office until
he next general election, when five
commissioners will be elected at large,
he entire territory voting on the can
iidates as it now votes for delegate to
Washington.
The Democrats, it is said, believe
hat the passage of public utilities
act is one of the most important
iuties that confronts the legislature
and will unite on a measure that
meets their approval. The bill as
drafted and practically decided upon
1t a caucus last night is a lengthy
oiece of work. some sixty typewriter
pages being devoted to its various
provisions.
A Republican public utilities bill is
also being framed, as mentioned some
weeks ago.
Outsiders following the legislature
closely are inclined to the belief that
f any measure is passed it will be
compromise one.

GOOD REASONS
FOR OPTIMISM

Optimism as to the business out
look is the dominant note in the ex-
pressions of opinin from the lead
ing manufacturers, merchants. bank
ers and railroad presidents of the
United States published in the Sun
day Oregonian, All tell of healthy
conditions and normally expanding
business. good crops salablc at good
uriccs. sufficient money in banks to
market them and heavy traffic on
railroads.
There are adverse factors. but
they and their influence are fast
passinr away. One is the tariff
bill. but, having rcconcilcd them
selves to the certainty that the tariff
would be reduced manufacturers
and producers have nerved them
:, Ives to stand the unequal and dras-
tic revision now proposed. Predic-
tions of disaster to industry are few,
and the great majority have evident
ly the effects of revision. The cur
r,ncy bill. at first a source OF I'M
G, rtainty. has become source oil
confidence since its defects have
been largely pruned away and good
nrospect has arisen that the leaders
in Congress will consent to further
improvements. Danger of railroad
strikes has been practically elimin-
ated by- the new arbitration law.
Assurance of peace in the balkans
encourages confidence that large
sums tied up in European treasures
will soon be turned loose and VIII
ease up the worlds money market.
With the certainty of good crops
and ample funds to handl them ;
with the prospect of an early settle
mcnt of the tariff and the readiness
of manufacturers to do business UNI
der the new rates and not tosulk :
with the prospect a little beyond
that the new currency system Will
provide ample money for legitimate
business. to expand and contract
with our needs and will render panics
remote possibility, there is every
cause for confidence and no cause
for foreboding.
