Chicago Jan. SGood gains were es-
tablished in grains today There was
a rush to buy through commission

bull arguments. May wheat opened up

ed at $1.41,

Quieter and Easier
Describes Stocks Today

New York, Jan. s.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review TO-DAY
says;
The stock market was both quiet and
easier today but the trading was 80
highly professional that the move
ments, such as they were, bore little, il
any significance.
Both the railroad and industrial list
failed to disclose any definite trend
and both departments were effected.
There are many developments pend
ing Of interest to the railroads and il
is doubtful If much action need be
looked for in that quarter until they
are disposed such as the supreme
court consideration of the Adamson
law and the strike and other legisla-
tion before congress.
The copper and smelling group were
soft and Mexican Petroleum lost more
than its gains of the morning. Trad
ing in the last hour was dull in the
extreme Toward the closing, how
ever, somewhat firmer trend de-
veloped.

hope that unqualified harmony and sup

that the presiding officer should have

tion of Robert Stanfield. In her second
ing speech she said:
cit is great pleasure to second the
nomination of Robert Stanfield and an
unusual proceeding when the majority
allows a member of the minority to as
sist in the organization. 1 am pleased
because | am a democrat and woman.
The reason that am allowed to partici-
pate in the organization as democrat
is that party lines play no part. wish
to express my appreciation to the ma
iority which pays its tribute to the wo-
manhood of the state.
Mr.. Stanfield comes from the wide,
free plains of eastern Oregon and will
occupy the chair with dignity to himself
and to the state and will conserve the
interest of the state at large"
The nomination of Stanfield was also
seconded by Albert w. Muller, OF
Columbia county. He said the people
of the state We're looking for great
things from this session of the legisla-
ture as the people were groaning under
the burden of taxation, which should
be lightened as much as possible.
1t was then moved that the nomina-
tions be closed. The roll was called and
Stanfield received the unanimous vote
of the house. The only representative
not present was William H. Gore. of
Douglas and Jackson.
Representatives Bean and Kubli were
appointed committee to escort the

then elected temporary speaker. He was
nominated by Al w. Jones, of Marion.
The election was followed by the ap-
pointment of committee OF five on or

mittee was composed of Plowden Stott,
Multnomah; w. &. Schimpff, Clatsop;

| 'elock when the house reassembled to
complete permanent organization. Stott,
of Multnomah, moved for the adoption

! committee of three be appointed to in
vite member of the supreme court to
administer the oath of office and Shell

wait on the supreme court and secure a
Justice.
With the arrival Of Justice Moore, the
oath of office was taken by the mem
bers of the house and the election of a
speaker was the next thing on the~pr
gram. 1t was an impressive moment as
the representatives OF the various coun-
ties of the state of Oregon raised their
right hands and swore to uphold the
constitution and give their entire loyal
ty to the state.
Bean Nominates Stanfield.
Up to last night the fight between
| Louis Il. Bean, of Lane county, and r.
N. Stanfield, of Umatilla and Morrow
counties, was keenly and hotly contest
ed However, after skirmishing about
for several weeks, it developed in the
caucus last night at the Marion hotel
that Stanfield had about 40 votes and
was about seven OF eight votes to the
I good. After canvas of the Bean men
\ it was determined to give in and make
the election Of Stanfield unanimous.
Consequently, this morning, when it
came time to nominate a speaker, it was
