Outside the Governor's door they bunched, darting In and out to take good news back and forth. All were warhorses, scorning nonpartl sanshlp and. of course, were confident that Senator Chamberlain, after being a nonpartisan Governor six years, will re form into a thoroughly partisan Senator.

JOXES TO BE ELECTED TODAY Washington's Senatorial uihoiuk Without Opposition. ot vmph -Wash.. Jan. 18. (Special.) In separate sessions the House and Sen- ate tomorrow win vow u w.... Senator and apparently without question elect Congressman Wesley 1 Jones 10 succeed Senator Levi Ankeny. While the election win be pracucanj completed tomorrow, it will not Decomo effective until noon Wednesday, when the two houses will meet In Joint session w canvass the vote of the previous day. According to present arrangemenui. Speaker L. O. Meigs, or tne ouse, vw.i nominate Mr. Jones in that body and Senator Cameron, of Yakima, will pro pose his name In the Senate, bom are from Jones' County of Yakima. The present outlook Is that the names of no other Republicans will be suggested In either house, and it will be the first time in this state that a United States K...,.itnr has been elected in other than Joint session and after numerous ballots. While in the House it seems kiuto iu. the six Democratic members will vote for Stato Senator George T. Cotterlll, the ac tion of three Democrats In the Upper House Is In doubt. Cotterlll today, when the suggestion was made that the elec tion of Jones be made unanimous, said that the Democrats were entitled to rec ognition as a 'party, and Inasmuch as he was the choice of the party for United Stales Senator, he could not, in gooa faith, withdraw his name. It is not assured, however, tnat nis Democratic colleagues, McGowan of Pa cific and Graves of Spokane will vote for him. Both are hold-overs and, therefore, unpledged under the primary election law. Graves Is not a strong admirer oi loc terill. McGowan has been doing some fig uring and has discovered that In the dis trict he represents less than 5 per cent of the total vote cast In the primary elec tion was for Cotterill as the Senatorial choice. Out of JSiS votes cast for United States Senator In the two counties of Pacific and Wahkiakum, Cotterill got but 5. Senator McGowan, however, retusea to say what he proposed to do about It. to hold up Chamberlain's election, since s.holfield. of Claaton. was ready to Join the anti-Chamberlain strength, and only six were needed on subsequent days in lolnt assembly. But the needed State ment men could not be Induced to go to the front. Will Attend. Special Session. Should there be a special session of Congress before next December. Cham berlain will attend it. according to his promise given out today. Chairman Kwic ravs that Chamberlain may even resign before that time, to take a rest .ftp lone service as Governor before r.lnnlnir his new duties. There was no ground for the fear among Republicans, said Mr. Sweek. that Chamberlain would appoint a Democrat to succeed Benson, as Secretary- of State. beause the Governor would have named Benson's choice to that office in case of Benson's death. As matters stand. Benson will serve as acting Gov- mor after Chamberlain goes 10 .nil will draw the salaries c both Secretary of State and Governor. Should a vacancy occur before January, . - wdi Ka nrceeded in those of- fcp hv Jay Bowerman. President of ' t,-i:,-.r -nrm ho taken in each house at nocn tomorrow. If the precedent of two years ago. when Mulkcy and Bourne -r alerter! to the short and long term. espctlve!y. la fulfillment of Statement No. 1. shall be followed tomorrow, there t:1I1 be no nominating speeches for Cham !er!aln In either house. In 197 each house p-oceeded to the election without any such preliminary. In the House there was a canvass of the popular vote by a special committee, whereupon the roll was called and the balloting proceeded. In the Senate there was only the for mality of Uie roll call and the ballot. tn Wednesday at noon the two houses will meet In Joint assembly to declare Chamberlain elected, that being the re quirement of the law. This session will be a mere formality, for the purpose of meeting and approving the Journals of the previous day's election.

Dunbar Absent and Goso Had Not Qualified When Case Was Ar gued Before Judges. OLYMPIA. Wash., Jan. 18. (Special.) A etatement today by Chief Justice Rud kin, of the State Supremo Court, that the quo warranto proceedings brought by Charles Fl Coon against Lieutenant-Governor Hay will not be deckled until Judge Dunbar is well enough to take part In the discussion, has been ac cepted as meaning the court te now split 3 to 1 on the case. The Supreme Court consists of seven member, four of whom constitute a ma jority and may render decisions. When the Coon-Hay case was argued but five Judges were present, being Chief Justice Rudkin and Justices Fullcrton, Mount, Crow and Chadwlck. Justice Dunbar was home sick and Justice Gose had not been appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the failure of Milo Root, Jut.tlce-elect, to qualify. Hadl four of the five Judges who heard the argument agreed on the decision. It could be prepared and filed, without -ailing " Dunbar Into the case, iinm'f. It follows the live who heard the case- must be divided i to 2, but of course no Intimation la given whether the three favor the contention of Coon or of Hay. Attorneys here who have followed the fse ex oress the belief that the division of the court is on the question of Jurie dlctlon. It is suggested that the court may decide that the jurlsdicion lies ex clusively in the Legislature, where Hay, It Is conceded, would win. BANDON PUTS IN BULKHEAD Timbers Will Protect Xorth Bank of Coqullle River From Breakers. BANDON. Or.. Jan. 18. (Special.) James Laughead. of Portland, has ar rived here and will begin at once the construction of a bulkhead on the north side of the Coqullle River, to protect the bank from the breakers, which dash against It constantly when they come from the southwest. The bank has been washed away to such an extent that the residence of . the lighthouse keener on the north side of the river Is In danger of being undermined. The bulkhead will be built of timbers. of sufficient strength to suffice for some time, but the Intention of the Govern ment is to construct later a concrete wall. The harbor here Is getting better all the time. The pile Jetty which was con structed by the cltixens has had the de sired effect, and now there is deep water on the bar. there never being less than 12 feet at low tide, and from 18 to 2 at high tide. The river Is high at present, due to the rapid melting of snow in the mountains. While other parts of the state suffered cold weather. Coqulllo Vnllev continued warm, the lowest tem perature being 26 degrees above zero. Today and tomorrow will positively be the last days for discount on ir.asi r-iae - will. Legal Right for Treaty Conference Defined From Federal Constitu tion Action, Not Expected for Two Tears. OLYMFIA, "Wash., Jan. 15. (Special.) A Joint resolution will be submitted to the Legislature of Washington this week providing for the appointment of a treaty conference commission to meet with a like commission from Oregon, to settle the controversy as to the boundary In the Columbia River, control of fisheries and all other matters in dispute between the two 6tates. The resolution, which la being prepared by Senator Stewart, of Cowlltx, with the ..e.t.r.r. nt th Attorney-General, will call for the appointment by the Governor of a commission of seven members, four of whom will bo selected from the Legis lature, two from the House and two from the Senate. It is claimed that If Oregon Joins In the conference the boundary and fisheries questions could be permanently and definitely settled and that such a treaty, after approval by the Legislatures of the two states and by Congress. cOVld alter the. location of the boundary line be tween rfe two states as recognized since the filing of the decision of the United States Supreme Court In the Sand Island case The provision of the United States Constitution, under which It Is proposed to enter Into such treaty. Is section 10, article 3, as follows: Constitution Is Interpreted. "No Btate shall, without the consent of Congress, lay any duty of tonnage, keep troops or ships of war In times of Pea-ce. enter Into agreement or compact with any other state or with a toreign pu. engage In war unless actually involved or In such Imminent danger aa will not ad mit of delay." The words "without me consent oi v...- gress" are construed by tne Aiiornejr General as a eavlng clause In giving two states the right to negotiate and enter Into treaties. Members of the legislature irom Columbia River counties eiscussea i" right to enter into a treaty with Oregon to settle the boundary and fisheries ques- .... or a r-nnferenee neia wmi fficlals some weeks ago in roruanu, i the matter waa held up oniy as a vm ,r.tii loirnl advice could be secured. The Attornev-General's office advised Senator Stewart today that the differences v... .r.. .fated could be settled in Ur i ... t. . " " . such manner. Report Expected Two Years Hence. it l not extjected that the report of .,.r.v, . nnnff-rence would or could be pre pared for submission to euner ol un Legislatures now In session, but would be made two years hence, and then, if rati fied In Oregon and Washington, be sub mitted to Congress. One of the principal arguments mai w" be used to Induce Oregon to engage In the proposed conference is tne uaner u indicated in the President's message that Federal control of the Columbia fisheries will bo assumed as a result of the lack of uniformity of laws controlling the in dustry In the two states. t f. claimed here also that unless some thing Is done to promote greater uniform ity of the fisheries laws, mooasncu uiuuub the Ignorant foreigners engaged In fish ing on the Columbia Is very likely to occur In the future. The proposed conference Is not to In terfere with the fisheries conference al ready proposed by the Legislature of this state, the Washington committee having been completed today. The House mem bers named are: Burk of Wahklakuip; Sims of Jefferson, Stuart of Pacific and McMillan of Whatcom. The Senate com mittee is: Stewart of Cowlitz, McGowan of Pacific, Presby of Klickitat and Eas ham of Clark. A bill appropriating expense money for the treaty conference will follow the pas sage of the Joint resolution. TALK OF RACING AND SHEETS Washington Solons Consider Various New Bills During Day. OLYMPIA. Wash.. Jan. 18. (Special.) The first of 29 bills introduced In the House this afternoon was Ole Hanson's anti-racetrack bill, a duplicate of which now reposes with the Judiciary committee of the Senate. Today there arrived on the scene James F. McKlroy, of Seattle, who own a fifth Interest in the Meadows, and who has had extended experience in urging defeat or adoption of legislation. Unlike the local option bill, the racetrack gambling measure has not yet been attacked! with substitute measures; and It is the gen eral Impression that the effort against the bill will be to postpone the time it takes effect until after the end of next racing season. Among the Senators the argument has been mado that the di rectors of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Ex position do not desire that racetracks shall be eliminated In this stato through the passage of such an act until after the exposition is over. Ole Hanson, how ever, is exhibiting a letter from President Chilberg, of the Exposition directorate, denying any interest In the matter. The anti-saloon league's local option bill also appeared In the House with the first batch of bills, and accompanied! by a bill from Palmer, of King, providing tor a precinct vote on the liquor ques tion at each general election outside of Incorporated cities. The anti-saloon bill was submitted by McMasters, of Spo- kThn Oklahoma nine-foot sheet bill was presented in the House by Sparks, of Clark. It Imposes a fine of JjQ on hotel and lodging-house keepers who do not supply their guests with sheets nine feet long. . The width is not specified. Other House bills include the following: Providing for the submission of an initiative and referendum constitutional amendment; appropriating $ajO,000 for the establishment of a home for the blind, aged and infirm; establishing a tubercu losis sanitarium. The House passed the Senate Joint me morial praying Congress to remove the duty on Jute bags. The Senate held a short session this morning, the feature of which was the quick death of a Joint resolution by Brown, of Whatcom, providing adjourn ment of the Legislature at the end 'of 40 days. Only six members voted) for it. Senate new bills include the following: Permitting hotels to sell liquor to bona fide guests on Sunday; creating a Com missioner of Health at fcOuO per year; and a road bill as recommended by the State Hiehway Commissioner, Increasing the state road tax from one-half to one mill.

Anson, of the old Chicago White Stockings, who testified in the Chicago Debtors' Court Saturday that he was "busted." Sunday played under An son five years, and says: "Chicago ought to get up a benefit for the head of the list with the biggest sub scribers for my old friend. Anson gave Clil cago four pennant winners and developed some of the greatest stars the game ever knew, including Bill Lange. the greatest outfielder in baseball history. Indirectly, Anson may be said to bo responsible for seven Chicago pennants, as he also de veloped Frank Chance, who has won three since he has been manager. Anson was one of .my best friends. God bless him! I think the old man has had more hard luck than anything else, and If everybody he had ever befriended and loaned money to would pay him back now, Anson would be on Easy street for the rest of his days.
