THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, 1903. MAY ADJOURN AGAIN Legislators Anxious for Over Sunday Recess. FULTON HEN DON'T WANT TO Possibility of Coap for Clatsop Man In Absence of Gecr and ainlt noxnah Forces letters From Portland No Change. Tlie Vote at Salem. Pulton ..... Ger Wood Williams ... Scattering . Absent .... ,i..S3 ....10 17 10 11 3 Total 90 SALEM, Or., Jan. 29. (Staff correspond ence.) There Js more talk tonirht about i possible adjournment tomorrow until Monday than about the Senatorial ques tion. Members generally are anxious for an over-Sunday recess, and they want It to begin at noon Friday. The friends bf Mr. Fulton, however, are said to be dis posed to insist on continuous sessions. They could be easily outvoted, but the romblned opposition may not want to take ihe chance. Some risk lies in the possi bility that if the Geer forces and the Multnomah delegation go away, Mr. Fulton might endeavor to hold a joint con- j rention Saturday, and from some source ; muster up enough votes In addition to j sis own to make a majority of all mem- : oers elected to the Legislature he has 34 3f his own 12 additional would make a legal Quorum, and If the 46 were to as semble Saturday at noon, they might pro seed to ballot for a United States Senator. That would be an easy way to elect the Clatsop County Senator. But it Is not it all likely that 44 will go away and leave 16 to etect. Mr. Fulton would scarcely be i party to such an enterprise, even if it were feasible, and even though he may oppose adjournment It may be expected he will accept It in good faith and spirit. If the majority Insists. The precedent last week is a guide for all factions and the outlook tonight is that it will be fol lowed. Letters From Multnomah. Xo developments of any kind is the sub tance of the report that must be made tonight on the Senatorial fight. A little Butter has been created In the Multnomah delegation by the receipt of several let ters from Portland merchants, saying sub stantially that no criticism will be made by them If members from Portland should Bee fit to vote for and elect Mr. Fulton. These letters have not been generally re ceived, but have been addressed to one or two members only. Representatives who have not received them say they have been Inspired by persons in Portland, mostly Federal officeholders, who are per sonally and politically friendly to the candidate from Astoria. They appear to have had no effect and are not so numer ous as to cause the delegation as a whole to think that there Is any real sentiment In Portland that desires them to alter their cpurse. If there Is to be a division In the delegation on the subject of 'Mr. Fulton's candidacy It has not yet mani fested itself In any open manner. The week will without doubt end with the delegation in precisely the same situation as at the beginning. dr. Fulton has been extremely active today and "has had personal interviews with a. number of members from Eastern Oregon. He has informed them that he is certain to be elected, and that he has enough votes in sight and pledged, to "bring about that result. Members from that part of the state are for the most part -voting for ex-Governor Geer. Rep resentative Ginn, who started out with the ex-Governor, Is the only one from that Eectlon who has so far changed his atti tude. No Change In SIslit. Representative Hume did not arrive to day, and no chance occurred in the vote. Nor Is a break of any kind to be ex pected tomorrow, so far as can be ascer tained tonight. The Fulton people do not promise It, the Geer men say they are solid, and the Multnomah delegation will probably continue to act as a unit in distributing their votes among citizens of Portland. N E. B. P. EMMITT MAKES A STIR. He Answered "Here"; All Thought He Said "Geer." SALEM, Or., Jan. 2). Special.) The Brst genuine excitement of the session was kicked up In joint convention today by Representative Emrattt,- of Klamath, Lake and. a few other counties. About the time the Senators were due to arrive, Mr. Emmltt was eized with a burning desire to go outside and eee how the dome of the Capitol looked in a real Oregon rain storm. The observation required more time than the Eastern Oregon Rep resentative had expected, and by the time ho had fully satisfied his curiosity the balloting for Senator had begun. When he reached the door of Representative Hall, It was to find that the lobby waa packed. It required no little maneuvering and strategy to get through the crowd. When Emmltt was about half way In the clerk reached his name on roll call. "Here!" responded the Klamath County Legislator In a tone that fairly assaulted the celling and started the dormant echoes Into life. In the confusion everybody thought he had said "Geer!" and the Fulton forces were iainy paralyzed, pres ident Brownell, who waa trying to read something or other, gave a startled look over his glasses at Speaker Harris, and the latter turned a visible crimson. The entire Fulton contingent turned In their shalrs and the Geer people began to smile. They had made a real accession at last. Chief Clerk Moorhead stopped and whis pered to Chief Clerk Jennings, and the latter shook his bead doubtfully. By this time Emmltt had reached the bar' of ' the bouse and Clerk Jennings thought he Would better make sure. 'Emmltt!" he again called. "We are now voting on United States Senator." Interjected President Brownell who had. managed to secure a firmer grasp on himself. Emmltt did not respond at once, and stood looking uncertainly about the house. He finally responded: "In that case I desire that my vote be recorded for Hon. Charles W. Fulton." The President sighed with relief, the Fulton, men composed their agitated fea lures, the Geer people ceased grinning, and -things went on the even tenor of their way. Judge George H. Williams, Mayor of Portland, was present during roll call and ten of the Multnomah delegation tendered him the compliment of thelr totes. The. ballot resulted: For C. W.

' Three-Piithii of All Voters Required to MaUc Change Senator Myers' Bill. SALEM, Or., Jan. 29. (Staff Corre spondence.) Senator Myers' bill for a general enabling act. which will permit counties to vote upon the relocation of county seats without a special act of the Legislature, la In part as follows: "Whenever the Inhabitants of any coun ty of this state desire to remove the county Heat of the county from the place where it is fixed by law or otherwise, they siiall present a petition to the County Court of their county, praying such removal and that an election be held to determine to what place such re moval must be made; provided, .that the petition for removal shall set forth the namea of the towns or cities to which such county seat is proposed to be re moved. "It" tho petition Is signed by qualified electors of the county equal In number to at least three-fifths of all the votes cast In the county at the last preceding general election, the board must, at the general election of county officers, submit tho question of removal to the electors of the county. "Notice of such election, clearly stating the object, shall be given, and the elec tion must be held and conducted, and the returns made, in alt respects In the man ner prescribed by law In regard to elec tions of county officers." The bill also provides that when the returns are received, If it be found that three-fifths of the votes are In favor of any particular place, the board must give notice thereof by posting notices in all precincts in the county. The notice must also specify a day, not more than 90 days' distant, when the county seat 6hall be changed. If no placo receives three fifths of the votes,' no change can take place. An election on the change of a county seat cannot take place oftener than once In two years. TO HAVE SAME '.PRIVILEGES. Telephone Lines to Enjoy Right of Condemnation. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 29. (SpeclaL) Sen ator Pierce, of Umatilla, made an un availing fight in the Senate today on the bill of Senator Smith, of Yamhill (S. B. S3) to amend the law conferring the right of eminent domain on the telegraph, tele phone and electric light companies. It ia the purpose of the law to confer the same powers on telephone ' and electric light companies as are now enjoyed by railroads, when the usual arbitrators are unable to agree and It is necessary to re sort to condemnation proceedings. "The-e was a proposed railway com pany In Umatilla County that came in and proceed to appropriate the high ways," said Mr. Pierce. '"It looks to mo now as If we were granting the same privilege and more to telegraph and telephone companies." Senator Smith, of Umatilla, suggested that it looked to him as If this bill re enacted a provision that he had Intro duced a bill to repeat Senator Mays, who had charge of the measure, explained Us provisions, and It passed 20 ayes, 6 noes. SEXSATIOX IX PEXITEXTIARY. A "Woman Inmate Makes Serious Charges Agn.ln.st Second "Warden. SALEM. Or.. Jan. 29. (Special.) Mrs. Rosa Carlisle, who is serving a nine years' term In the Penitentiary. Is pregnant and charges Second Warden A. C. Dllley with having caused her condition. Dilley has been suspended from duty at his own re quest, pending an Investigation. Gordon Hull, druggist at the prison, has tendered his resignation, though nothing has been charged against him, except that he did not at once disclose his knowledge that something was wrong. Mrs. Carlisle charges that the illicit relations were con tinued for some time, and with her full consent. She made no complaint to the officers, but the information was given to the superintendent by the druggist last Saturday. Dllley makes a full and square denial of the charge against him, and In vites tho most searching Investigation. Governor Chamberlain visited the prison this morning, but made only a hasty In quiry into the matter. Mrs. Carlisle occupies a cell in the south end of the "prison, but has the freedom of tho hospital room during the day. The only persons who have access to any room occupied by her are Warden Janes and Deputy Dllley. As Janes has been ex onerated by Mrs. Carllslo and Dllley Is the only other officer responsible for her safe keeping, It seems to be Incumbent upon him to show that some other person had an opportunity to have illicit relations with her.. This, it Is understood, Mr. Dll ley expects to do. Dllley Is well known In Salem, where he served three terms as City Marshal. He Is a cousin by marriage of Governor Geer, and has been a warden at the prison about nine months. He has the full confidence of Superintendent Leo and other officers of the prison. When seen this evening Mr. Dllley pro tested his Innocence, and said that he would be able to show that Convict White, who escaped from the prison 10 days ago, had an opportunity to commit the crime. In April, 1900, Mrs. Carlisle was commit ted to the Asylum, and In December, 1901. sho was returned to the prison. According to her story, she has been pregnant four months. There Is a possibility that the entire story Is a fabrication, but tho prison physician Is inclined to believe that her condition is as she declares. Governor Chamberlain says a full Inves tigation will be made. ADAMS WILL XOT BE THERE. His Condition "Will Xot Permit nim to Attend Legislature. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Jan. 29. (Spe cial.)

It Is a system of mainly local treatment entirely original with us, and Is employed by no physicians other than ourselves. This may seem a broad asser tion, but it Is Just as substantial as it is broad. So-called "weakness" is but a symptom of local Inflammation or con gestion, and a radical cure Is merely a matter of restoring normal conditions throughout the organic system, and this wo accomplish thoroughly and with abso lute certainty. Stricture. Our treatment for stricture is entirely in dependent of surgery. A complete cure Is accomplished without cutting or dilat ing. All growths and obstructions in the passage aro removed, the membranes cleansed, and all irritation, or congestion removed. Contracted Disorders, Every caso of contracted disease wa treat Is thoroughly cured. Our patients have no relapses. When we pronounce a case cured there Is not a particle of Infection or Inflammation remaining, and there is not the slightest danger that the disease will return In Its original form or work Its way Into the general tystem. No contracted disease Is so tri vial as to warrant uncertain methods of treatment, and we especially solicit those cases that other doctors have been unable to cure. Specific BSood Poison We cure this disease completely. The system is thoroughly cleansed and every poisonous taint Is removed. The last symptcm vanishes to appear no more, and all Is accomplished by the use of harm less blood-cleansing- remedies. Do not submit to dangerous mineral dosing com monly indulged In. Such treatment mere ly obscures, the symptoms.

Now he can choose a thorough cure by painless treatment and without being detained a single day from his business. Our method Is original with ourselves, and Is the only safe and successful treatment for varicocele yet devised. Dr. W, Norton Davis & Co. SIXTH ST., COR: ALDER Portland, Or. 3 4
