THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 1909. EN STATEMENT M GET GOOD PLACES Speaker McArthur Favors Those Who Made His Election Possible. EARLY FRIENDS FAREWELL Democrat- Shut Out From All Chair manxhlps In Hobs Committees. Jones of Uneoln Secure Iloohy Prixe. SALEM. Or.. Jan. IK iSpoclal.V- In Jpaker M-Arthur's, award of commltte places th Statement 1 members arc well rared for who rami to him from hia rivals and made hla election possible. Most of the. bent places were awarded ' to auch men, conspicuously the follow In: Abbott, chairman of ways and m-ans and member of printing Camp fcell. chairman of resolution, labor In dustries, and enrolled bills and member of revision of laws and earn: Clemens, chairman of Insurance and member of wavs and means, statistics and Immi gration: Dodds. chairman of railroads and rams and member of fisheries, health and public morals; Jonr. of Oackamas. chairman of engrossed bills and penal reformatory and charitable In stitutions, and a member of fisheries: Orton. chairman of printing and member of labor Industrie; Dlmlck, chairman "if Judiciary. Opponent Get Few IMaees. The members who opposed the Speak er's election received only nominal con sideration. Of this class. Bean is chair man of elections and Buchanan, who was Bean's most active champion for Speaker. g-ets chairman of military af fairs, but receives places on two other f:ood committees corporations and re vision of laws. McArthufs Statement opponents such as Bryant. Altman. Davis. Jaeirer. Lthby and Barrett. drew no chairmanships. Couch was sidetracked to the head of cities and towns. Hatte bersr to statistics and immigration, and I'atton to Federal relations. Eaton, of 1-ane. although In this same class of Mc Arthur opponents, secured favorable rec ognition, evidently on account of friendly personal relations with me Speakerbeing rewarded with chairman of education and membership on ways and means. One of the most significant committee creations Is that of printing, which re veals the Influence of State Printer Dunl way In the organisation of the House. Two of the three members of this com mittee are THmlway's personal frlende Hughes, of Marlon, and Abbott, of Mult nomah. Abbott being- his business part ner. The chairman of this committee Is Orton, of Multnomah, appointed thereto apparently through the Influence of Campbell, of Clackamae, who was Dtinl way's original preference for Speaker and whom Abbott at one time was sup porting. At a later time Orton was working for Campbell, to whom he Jumped from Patton. This was the posi tion of Orton until the day before Mc Arthur's election wa a certainty, at which time Campbell mount"! the Mc Arthur bandwagon. Campbell was fol lowed In this act by his two Clackamas colleagues, Dimick and Linn Jonea and by Orton. Compromise W ith Chamberlain Men Like Orton. both Dlmlck and Jones shared bountifully In the shakedown .of committee plums. Dlmlck has the chair manship of Judiciary and Jonea the chair manships of engrossed bills and penal reformatory and charitable Institutions and membership on the Important com mittee of fisheries. In the treatment of Statement 1 mem bers. Mi-Arthur's understanding with the Republican supporters of Chamberlain Is plainly marked. This la the support that enabled McArthur to overcome his rivals and It Is natural to expect him to rlward It. Democrat are shut out from all chair manships. The eight members of that political faHh received only minor places. Jones, of Lincoln and Polk, foe of the House organization, was picked out to bead the committee on Indian affairs, which has been considered the booby prize by House members. Jones has in troduced a bill for an appropriation of jion.onn. paying Indian fighters of lG5-. The bill probably will go to the com mittee on ways and means and be out of bin reach. Advantage to Lower Klver Men. Good chairmanships which went to Mc Arthur'a early mvjporterg were those of irrigation. Brooke, of Malheur; com merce, McKlnney. of Baker; banking. Mahoney. of Morrow; agriculture. Haw ley, of Polk; horticulture. Carter, of Hood River: assessment and taxation, .Reyn olds, of Marlon. McCue and Leinenweber. of Clatsop, are well treated. McCue re ceiving the chairmanship of revision of laws and Lelnenweber that of fisheries. Thin chairmanship In the hands of Ieinenweber gives the lower river In terests an apparent advantage over up per Columbia Interests for their war in the Legislature. However, Dodds. of Wasco, and Farrell. of Multnomah, are members of the committee. The sym pathies of both of the last named are with the upper river. Smith, of Jose phine, and Jones, of Clackamas, have places on this committee. Members of Various Committees.

SALEM. Or.. Jan. IS. (Special.) Many amendments to the military code are proposed In a bill Introduced today by Senator C. J. Smith, of I'matilla County. The bill was prepared by offi cers of the National Guard, and Is de signed to bring; the military law Into harmony with the Federal military act of 1908. The bill Increases compensation In many particulars, as does the Federal act. It also makes available a payment of 60 cents per capita to members for attendance at each drill of companies of the guard. The present law provides for such payment, but the Attorney-General has held that the law Is not effec tive for that purpose. The new bill makes it the duty of the (Secretary of State to draw a warrant for the amount due. There are about 1400 members of the guard in the state and they hold four drills a month, or about 60 a year. If all attend the drills, and the drills held regularly, the total expense for this purpose would be about JH5.000 a year; but It Is estimated that many will be absent and that they will be fined enough to make up a consider able portion of the total. The bill increases the annual appor tionment to each company of Infantry from JS00 to 1600. and for each company of cavalry from $600 to 1700. and the ap portionment for armory rent from 51-5 per quarter to tJ150 per quarter. Adjutant-Oeneral W. E. Klnzer said todav that the present appropriation of 145,000 a year will be sufficient to pay the expenses of the National Guard un der the proposed new law. SOLOflS SEE FIGHT AHEAD STATE ASKED TO PETTTIOX FOR DIRECT VOTE. Introduction of Hesorotlon to Be Slpnal for AVarro Debate In State Senate. SALEM. Or.. Jan. IS. (Special.) It Is' apparent that the Legislature will have a big fight over the question of adopting a resolution calling; upon Con press to submit an amendment to the L'nited States Constitution providing for the election of United States Sen ators by direct vote of the people. The Senate has received a number o communications from other states asking- this state to adopt such a resolu tion. "As the resolutions which accom panied these communications were not in form for adoption in Oregon, they were all Indefinitely postponed, but Serator Abraham asked If it was the understanding that these resolutions were being postponed because of form, and that the question would be pre sented by new resolutions? He was in formed by a number of members of the committee on resolutions that this was the plan. It Is understood that the committee on resolutions now has such a resolu tion in preparation, but It is quite cer tain that It will be vigorously fought on the floor of the Senate. The ques tion may come up tomorrow morning, and If It docs, coming Just prior to the vote on the Sonatorship. It will be the occasion for a most vigorous fight. Hut whenever It comes up. It will be discussed at length on Its merits and not adopted unanimously, as In the past.

TO LIMIT 'APPEAL CASE Kay or Marion Proposes That Re trials Shall Be Xew Trials With Xo Notice of " First Conviction. SALEM. Or.. Jan. IS. (Special.) Sena tor Kay has introduced a bill In the Sen ate which Is designed to prevent spec ulative appeals in criminal cases. Under the present law if a man la indicted for murder and convicted of manslaughter he may appeal and If he secures a new trial he cannot be convicted of a greater crime than manslaughter. In other words, the defendant has nothing to lose and everything to gain by a new trial. Senator Kay's bill provides that If a new trial be granted the defendant shall be tried upon the original Indictment as if there had been no previous) trial, and that the first conviction shall not limit a second conviction. His bill also makes It unlawful in the second trial to mention the ftrst trial. . If his bill should become a law it would discourage appeals in which the defend ant is guilty, for he would be compelled to take the chances of conviction of the crime with which he was originally clurrged. Advance Court Report. Senator Olivers Senate bill No. 34 re that tho Knnreme Court Reporter shall prepare the decisions for the printer as soon as handed down and that the printer shall print & copies on cheap paper immediately and deliver them to the Secretary of State. These copies will constitute the "advance sheets," similar to those Issued by the. large law book publishing house The advance . to hA vnt to the Circuit and Supreme Judges, District Attorneys and to such lawyers as nave suDscriueu the complete bound volumes of the Su preme Court reports. The purpose is to provide the courts ottornva nifh earlv copies of the Supreme Court decisions and make it un necessary to send to eastern iiuuimuuB i. ,..,,, rr Owfnn Snnreme Court deci sions. The bill provides that there shall be printed 900 copies or tne cuinpieLc im ports, for which the printer Is to receive J21ii0, which will cover not only the print ing but the binding as well. Public Allowed Admittance. t 9i.niia thla mominir Beach of fered a resolution proposing that admis sion to the Senate cnamoer uuuub balloting for Senator tomorrow be re ...j.,.j . ihnu hoiHIriir tickets. The res olution provided for the appointment of a committee of three by which the tickets should be distributed, each Senator receiv ing two for himself and tne remainoer to be given out to the public generally until the capacity of the Senate chamber had been exhausted. ii.ro hum nH Kav demurred to sucn a nian mil insisted that the nubile should have an equal chance to gain admission to the Senate when the vote on Senator was being taken without having to de- 1 nn .,, ,., tlnketH. ' A motion tO suspend the rules and consider the reso lution immediately was defeated oy a vote of 13 to 17, and it went to the committee on resolutions not to be resuscitated. To Redistj-lct State. ( Senator Coffey today Introduced In the Senate a resolution proposing a consti tutional amendment and providing for the redistricting of the state In 1510 Into Sen atorial and Representative districts on the basis of population as shown In the Fed eral and state census, to be taken that year. The amendment proposes the cre ation of 30 Senatorial and W Representa tive districts and provides that only one Senator or one Representative shall be elected from each district so established by a board consisting of the Governor, Secretary of State and State Treasurer. Examination Before Marriage. The often-proposed requirement that men shall be subjected to a medical ex amination before receiving a marriage license, has been Incorporated in a bill Introduced In the State Senate by Senator Cole, of Umatilla County. The bill re quires a certificate from a physician to the effect that the applicant was ex amined within 24 hours of the time he applies for a marriage license and that he was found free from any Infectious disease. To Exclude Minors From Games. Senator Parish has introduced a bill by request making It unlawful for the proprietor of any billiard-room, pool room, soft-drink establishment or other place of amusement to penult a minor to engage In any game of pool, cards, dice or other game of chapce. The penalty prescribed Is a fine of 26 to $100, with no Imprisonment provided for. To Increase Judge's Pay. Senator Hart, of Baker County, pro poses to Increase the salary of the Cir cuit Judge in Baker County from '.000 to $4000 a year. This will be done as It Is in Multnomah County, by providing for a salary of J-SO00 from the state and $1000 from the county. The constitution nxes the salary from the state at 13000. Miller Has Cigarette Bill. Senator M. A. Miller's cigarette bill proposes to make It unlawful to sell cigarettes to a minor or for a minor to have cigarettes In his possession. This latter provision Is expected to prove ef fective for it carries with it a penalty of $0 fine or one month In Jail. Similar provisions have been opposed by some people upon the ground that, If the offense Is made a crime on the part of the minor, conviction of the dealer will be difficult. County Judge for Juvenile Court. Senator Beach's Juvenile Court bill changes the present law by substituting the County Judge for a Circuit Judge as Juilee of the Juvenile Court. The change, if the bill should pass, would not be made until the end of the term of theN present incumbent. Senator Beach says that the Circuit Judges desire that this change be made. In other counties than Multnomah the County Judge is now the Juvenile Court Judge. To Extend Deer Season. Senator Wood's game bill proposes to amend section 2010 of the code, fixing the closed season for hunting deer. The bill fixes the closed Season from November 1 to August 1. whereas It is now November 1 to August 15. thus lengthening the open season for buck deer 15 days. The bill also prohibits what is known as trail hunting, watching wet or dry stands and watching creeks where deer would run If pursued by dogs. Cx-operation in Irrigation. State and Federal co-operation in ir rigation experiments in Western Oregon Is planned by Senator Wood's Senate bill No. 49. Introduced today. His bill car ries an appropriation ot IU0 for two DEEP-SEATED COUGH CURED IN 5 HOURS. New Home-Made Syrup. (Cut This Out.) From Boston Press. Progress In medical compounds never ceases, and now it Is stated by a prominent medical man that any deep-seated cough or eold on the lungs can be actually cured in five hours by the clock. Opium and mor phine have been resorted to in the past, as relief measures. But now it is learned that the system must be treated to rid it of inflammation and congestion. A tonic laxative cough syrup does the work so quickly and thoroughly as to be almost magical. What heretofore has taken weeks to cure can be accomplished In hours. Get this formula filled or mix it at home and always keep it on hand: One-half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one ounce compound essence cardlol and three ounces syrup avhite pine compound. Shake the bottle and take twenty drops every half hour for four hours. Then take one-half to one tea spoonful three or four times a day until the system is purified and toned up. Give children less according to age. One filling will usually , cure a whole family; as the dose Is small. years, available whenever the Govern ment sets aside a similar amount for the same purpose. The experiments are to be conducted by the United States De partment of Agriculture. Bills were introduced in the Senate to day as follows: S B 27.

CROOK COUNTY FAIR AIDED House Passes Two of Ten Bills Over Chamberlain's Veto, but Sus tains Executive in Re maining Eight. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 18. (Special.) Consideration of Senate bills Vetoed by Governor Chamberlain at the 1907 ses sion was today deferred until Thursday. In the House the ten bills, originating in that department, and which met with the Governor's disapproval, were taken up as a special order at 2 o'clock this after noon. Further consideration of eight of the measures was postponed indefi nitely, while the other two were passed over the- Governor's veto. One was House bill 260. by (Belknap. appropriat ing $750 per annum for the First Central Oregon Agricultural Fair. Crook County. The other bill was introduced at the 19U session by the committee on game and extended the closed season for the pro tection of elk until 1317. Representative Belknap, author of the Central Oregon agricultural fair bill at the 1907 session, was re-elected and was present personally to urge the passage of the measure. He introduced the dis cussion, and explained that the appro priation asked was only 750, whloh was Intended exclusively for encouraging tlu further development of the agricultural and horticultural interests of Crook County. Not a cent of the appropria tion, he showed by reading a section of the bill, could be expended for racing attractions: the entire amount necessar ily had to be used as premiums for prod ucts of the soil. Give Warm Indorsement. Several members of the House from the Republican side warmly indorsed the bill. Aside from the need of the state to encourage in every possible way Its undeveloped sections, the speakers called attention to the fact that a stato fair was held at Salem annually, for which an annual appropriation of from $10,000 to $15,000 was made at every leg islative session. It wts also remarked that other sections of the state, no more deserving than Crook County, were al ready receiving state aid for agricultural district fairs. In addition to Belknap, the following members spoke in favor of the bill: Brooke, Brady, McKinney, Mahone. Brat tain. McCue. Dlmlck. Farrell. Hughes. Davis and Orton. The vote on the pass age of the bill, notwithstanding the Gov ernor's veto, was 49 yeas. 9 noes. Those voting to sustain the Governor were: Be dlllion, Brandon. Campbell. Hatteberg, Jones (Douglas). Llbby. . Miller. Phllpott and Purdln. Ixng Debate Over Elk. The bill extending the protection to elk until 1917 was debated for nearly an hour before a vote was called and the measure passed over the Governor's veto by a vote of 47 to 11. In his message to the House disapproving of this meas-s ure. Governor Chamberlain held that the enacting clause was faulty, and that if approved would not be operative. Mc Cue and Bean presented authorities to show that the bill could be enforced in its original form and. with a great ma jority of the members, spoke in the In terest of Its passage. Several of the speakers declared that without some severe legislation of the kind provided Jn the bill it would be a matter of only a few years until elk will be entirely ex terminated In this state. In the vote on this bill the following members voted to sustain the veto of the Governor: Altman. Brandon. Bry ant. Jackson, Jones (Douglas), Llbby. Miller, Munkers, Phllpott, Purdln and Rusk. The eight hills In which the. Governor was sustained in his vetoes were U follows: H. B. -:i, Jackson Closing leaaon for salmon fishing on tmpqua Klver. H.
