CASCADE COUNTY
KILLED BY SENATE
THIS MO R n n c
Senator Dimick Set OF the
OratOricaI Fireworks
As Usual
In SPITE OF HIS SPEECH
SENATE VOTED BILL DOWN
Anti Cigarette Bill Special
Order In House at 10
A. M. Tomorrow

The bill creating Cascade county was
killed.
The insurance code, bill No. 252, was
passed.
That was the work of the senate this
morning. House bill Nc. 1G5, was the
first one reported by the committee and
its report was a recommendation that
it do not pass. 1t looked like the re-
port of the committee would be adopted
without debate which would have indef-
initely postponed the bill, but such was
not to be.
Senator Orton, chairman of the com
mittee on counties, said in explanation
of the report that the committee had
examined into the merits of the bill, had
heard delegations from the proposed
county and from all sections of the old
county, and there was nothing shown to
Justify the creation of the county. 1t
was a certainty that the report of the
committee would be adopted, but Dim
lex was loaded and proceeded to air the
proposition and show up all its weak
nesses He had a map OF the proposed
county which showed the originators of
the idea wanted to be good to Multi
nomah county and had generously left
a strip 33 miles long and from four to
five miles wide between the proposed
county and Multnomah, believing the
latter would like to have it. This left
good old Clackamas in the shape of a
carpenters square.
.Dimick showed the vote on the propo-
sition and that but two precincts had
voted in favor of the division. He
showed lots of other things, so many in
fact that the senators as well as the
audience got tired of the show Dimick
however, was not tired, but fresh as a
daisy, and finally Orton suggested that
as. ne had a bill that was the special
order for 1880 he would like the sen
ator to make his remarks as brief as
possible. The president also urged brev-
ity. but the floodgates of the Cacka.
mas senator's oratOrical reservoir
were open and the tide rushed out in
/. torrent He evidently could have talk
ed all day but cut his speech short
after about an hour. As soon as the
senators got chance they adopted the
report of the committee and the hopes
of q county seat at Estacada went glim
mering.
The Insurance Code Passed.
Immediately following this, senate
bill No. 252, the insurance code, was
taken up, it being the special order
Senator Orton, chairman of the commit
tee, explained the bill and how it was
prepared by a committee appointed by
Governor Withyeombe at the last ses
sion of the legislature, and this commit
tee had drafted the bill which contains
l24 pages and covers everything con
nected with insurance.
Senator Eddy attacked the bill bitter

Hungary Strongly Approves

the war department did not halt in its
efforts to make the army efficient.
While the column remained inactive
stretched across the Mexican desert, it
was busy experimenting and perfeeting.
The lessons of the great war in progress
in Europe were taken to heart. The
equipment of every branch of the serv-
ice was changed to conform to the ad-
vance in military science.
In the infantry branch, the new style
of trench warfare rs developed in Eu-
rope was taught the troops. During the
months of seeming inactivity, the men
were drilled in trench fighting tactics
from every angle. Throwing hand
grenades from trenches was taught and
praeticed, and the use of rifle grenades
was shown.

Washington, Feb. THE United
States is now well within the danger
2one' of relations with Germany.
No INDIGESTION is Forthcoming that the
imperial government intends modifying
the submarine program which brought
the break. In view of Foreign Secre-
tary Zimmerman Is utterances, officials
here believe Germany win 90 through
to the end with her u-boat campaign.
The general situation was described
today as being the same as last Sat
urday, when the president went to con-
grcss and notified the world of the
break
Hopeful still that no covert act viii
come necessitating more vigorous action
by this government, those Immediately
associated with the president it is mere
ly matter of time before some U-boat
commander win accomplish by over
zealousness the fatal move They are
fearful lest the country be unduly lulled
| into q sense of security.
Each day that passes without dam
gcrous incident, however, brings relief.
The attitude of official Washington is
that of one holding his ears in anticipa-
tion of a tremendous explosion.
1t has now been 48 hours since the
day established by Germany for sinking
Everything in sight within her barred
zone, be the ship beligerent or neutral,
armed or unarmed.
! So far the Eavestone attack looks the
most serious, but no decision has been
reached. 1t is admitted that the more
days that pass without a U-boat
atrocity, the better are the chances for
escaping an armed clash between the
United States and Germany.
| At present no American ships are
sailing and the diplomatic break has
served the same purpose as an official
warning to Americans against promiscu-
GUS sea trips.
Hence, after American ships which
were ON the high seas when the break
came reach port, the danger Of sinking
either an American vessel or inlnring
an American passenger win be small.
There will be few persons taking pass
age, it is believed
| This also conforms to the view taken
by one of Count Won Bernstorff's assO-
eiates, who declared openly that il
week passes without an American in
jury, the danger will be over.
There is a psychological atmosphere
fabout Washington that is altogethef un-
warlike.
There is not any excitement. A calm,
amounting almost to indifference, has
settled over the city. There is notable
lack Of the hustle and action generally
attendant upon preparations for gi-
gantic struggle such as may be threaten
ing the country
This may be due to the influence of
\ President Wilson, who has counselled
strongly against "panic and haste. -
Also it may be due to activity going
on which no one knows about pow
erful, secret notwithstanding to avert
a crash which would involve this coun-
try in war
In this connection a mystery as deep
as ever continues regarding the course
Of action to be adopted toward Austria,
which has sent this government note
on U-boat warfare practically identical
1 with the German declaration.
