The bill was indefinitely postponed by a vote of 18 ayes to 10 noes. FRIENDS NOW LUKEWARM J Members AVliose Pet Bills Have l'asscd Are Losing Heart Car ter Arrives to Brace I'p Fight for Three Normals. STATB CAPITOU Salem. Feb. 15. (Special.) For once In the history of normal school grabs in Oregon, the normal logrollers find themselves "up against If and at their wits- end. Such is the predicament of the normal county legis lators and of the normal lobbies. Neither the friends nor the foes of the normal nuisance can see the finish, but the one normal plan is now stronger than ever before. Among the possible outcomes are the following: Many Schemes Presented. Deadlock between the Senate bill for one normal at or near Portland and the Hou?e bills appropriating SI'jS.WO each for .Ashland. Weston and Monmouth; this would leave all three schools in the pre dicament of Monmouth during the last two years, or: Compromise in favor of Monmouth or perhaps Kugene: or: Compromise for two normals, one In Eastern Oregon and one in Western. Ways and Means of One Mind. The three-normal plan is strong in the IKous" and weak In the Senate; the one normal idea, is strong In the Senate, but, on account of trades, weak in the House. The ways and means committee of each houss wants one normal. The Senate ways and means committee holds three bills for the three normals, as passed by the House. The House ways and means committee holds the Senate bin for one normal at or near Portland Carter Again Heads lobby. In the lobby, the Southern Oregon dele gation, that boosts the Crater Lake road appropriation, is also boosting the Ash land normal bill. In this delegation are the old-timers. B. V. Carter, of Ashland, snd Dr. J. M. Keene, of Medford. H. Jlirschberg. of Independence, was here today lending a hand for Monmouth. In th legislature of 197 Mr. Carter was the ihead ar.d front of the normal lobby, ar riving then, as now, at the critical time. Three Normals Lose Ground. It Is altogether likely that the House ways and means committee will report amendment of the Senate bill, locat ing the one normal at Monmouth, and It Is probable that attempts will be made on tho floor of the House to tack on Ashland and Weston as riders. But that the three normals will be as strong in the House as they were last week Is doubted, because when the normals then carried things their way. they had the logrolling aid of members whose bills have since been disposed of in the House. The Southern Oregon delegation is In omewhat of a dilemma, over the Ash land school and the Crater Lake road. Its members assert that each appropria tion can stand on its own merits. If nec essary to trade the one for the other, they are at a loss to make up their minds which should be lot go. PLKADS I'OK XFAY TAX LAW I W. Mulkey Appears Before Senate Judiciary Committee. STATE CAPITOL, Salem., Feb. 16. (Special.) F. W. Slulkey, member of the Tax Commission which recommended tax legislation two years ago, appeared be fore the Senate judiciary committee to day and urged adoption of resolutions submitting constitutional amendments which will permit assessment ahd taxa tion of different classes of property at different rates or by different methods. In this he was joined by C. E. Sper.ce nnd Eugene Palmer, representing the State Grange. Resolutions' proposing such amend ments have been Introduced in both houses and some of them have beflh in definitely postponed, but Senator Kay in troduced a new resolution upon the sub ject today, for the special purpose of giving Mr. Mulkey and the Grange rep resentatives a chance to be heard. Their plan Is to assess and tax rail roads and franchises for state purposes, leaving all other classes of property for county taxation, thus separating state ond county taxation and removing the Incentive to unequal assessment. Mr. 2dulkey asserted that this plan of taxa tion has worked very satisfactorily In Wisconsin and Michigan for several years. The committee has taken no ac tion, but the members are known to be adversely Inclined toward the proposed amendments. Bills Filed by Governor. STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Feb. 16. (Special.)

Without debate, the House this afternoon passed substitute House bill !sb by committee on assessment and taxa tion, creating a State Board of Taxation, and appropriating $20,000 to meet salaries and expenses for the ensuing year.

SALARY CUT MADE Unusual Bill Meets Ready Ap proval of Senate. . COUNTY JUDGE GETS LESS Senator Brooke Carries Out Cam paign Pledge Given to People of Malheur County Six Months' School Measure Carries. STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Feb. 16. (Special.) The unusual spectacle of -a salary reduction was witnessed in the Senate today when Brobke's H. B. 170 was passed. The bill reduces the sal ary of the County Judge of Malheur County from $1800 to $1200. Discussion brought out the fact that two years ago the Judge's salary was raised to $1800. and that in the . last campaign the candidate elected promised the peo ple that he would take a salary of $1200. so that this bill was passed by his consent. The bill also raises the salary of the County Clerk from $1000 to $1200. For Six Months' School. By unanimous vote the Senate .today passed the House bill requiring that each school district shall have at least six months' school each year and that each district must have a maintenance fund of not less than $300 a year. The bill provides that if the county appor tionment does not reach $300, the dis trict must levy a special tax of not more than five mills for that purpose, and then if tho amountdoes not reach $300, the County Court must help out the small districts by completing the $300 from the general fund. County Records Made Free. When Brookes House bill 22i. for the free inspection of all public records, came ud for final action in the Senate, there was some discussion of its pur pose. Senator Hart, Senator Barrett and others said that they have been informed that in somo counties the County Clerks refuse to let abstractors have access to the records, and that in some other counties the clerks charge abstractors for the privilege. They be lieved that ull citizens should have free access to all public records. Senator Parrish opposed the bill because he thought that safety of the records re quires a restriction of the privilege, especially in counties where tho loose leaf system of records is used. The bill passed by a voto of 22 to 8, those voting no being Senators Bailey, Cald well, Hedges, Merryman. Mulit, Not tingham, Parrish and President Bow erman. Public Fund for Publicity. The Senate has passed McCue's bill permitting counties to levy a special tax of one-half of one mill for the pur pose of advertising the resources of a county. Before its passage, however, the bill was amended so as to provide that before such a tax cap be levied there must be a petition signed by 20 per cent of the voters of the county, which signers must be taxpayers, and that then the question of levying the tax be placed upon the ballot at the next election. If a majority of the voters favor the tax levy, it must be made, but not otherwise. The fund raised must be expended in the publi cation and distribution of advertising material. The bill was opposed in the Senate by Senators Hedges, Miller of Linn, Sinnott, Smith of Umatilla, Selling, Wood Mulit and Parrish. Games as Usual on May 30. Representative Bean's bill prohibiting certain public sports on Memorial Day was killed by Its friends in the Senate today. The committee on military af fairs had amended the bill so as to permit snorts after 2 P. M. To Cse Exhibit Building. Senator Coffey secured the adoption of a Senate concurrent resolution this after noon directing that after the Alaska-Yukon Exposition the buildings and equip ment of the Oregon exhibit be turned over to the Oregon State Fair. The Ore gon building at Seattle was constructed in such a manner that most of the ma terial can be used again, the frame of the building having been bolted together instead of being nailed. After the Se attle fair the building will be taken down and moved to the State Faff Grounds unless Washington Is willing to pay what the building is worth to have it stay there. Railroad Bill Amended. The Senate has passed the Railroad Commission's bill, amending the discrim ination clause of the commission law an that it will nrohibit discrimination be tween localtles as well as between per sons. There was no opposition to the bill. To Notify Farmers by Letter. President H. C. Atwell, of the Oregon Horticultural Society, was In Salem to day, lobbying in behalf of House Bill 416, which provides that notice may be served upon owners of diseased orchards by registered letter. The passage of this bill will greatly reduce the cost or serv ing notice, by saving traveling expenses. Railroad Men Select Seattle. SEATTLE, Feb. 16.

These always opened up again, bleeding badly. From the fingers it extended over the hand and as far as the elbows. The doctor said it was eczema and that recovery would necessarily be 6low.

STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Feb. 16. (Special.) "English ingredients" is a term Senator Abraham failed to get anyone to explain to him today, so he voted against Kepresentati ve Hughes" bill for the regulation of the sale of baking powder. The bill requires that packages of baking powder must have labels showing the Ingredients and that the list must be "free from tech nical or chemical phrases unless ac companied by Its English ingredients." The bill in that form passed the in spection of 60 members of the House, but Senator Abraham read the bill close enough to catch the error. "I want to know what an 'Knglish Ingredient' is, demanded Abraham, when his name was called. No one thought it worth while to give the matter further attention and upon roll call there were votes enough to pass the hill as it stood, but Abraham in sisted that a measure should not be passed in such form and it was finally re-referred upon motion of Bailey so that the word "Ingredient" can be changed to "equivalent." The incident illustrated the manner In which many errors get into laws. Plan "Public Lobby" for Scheme. SALEM, Or., Feb. 16. (Special.) Fred erick H. Monroe, president of the Henry George Lecture Association, has been in the city in consultation with Governor George E. Chamberlain.

San Pedro Shipping. SAX PFJDRO. Cul., Feb. 16. The steamer Norwood arrived today from Grays Harbor with lumber and pas sengers. The steamer Shasta cleared today for Bell Ingham. AT 330 to 336 East Morrison Street, there are 442 vehicles that have been in the store for two years or more. Some things improve with age possibly vehicles do not, but if the timber is not dry, if there is any defect in workmanship or material, two years, with the extremes in climate, will certainly demonstrate it. Perhaps the finish may be a little dull, but you are guaranteed absolute safety in the purchase of a vehicle that has stood the heat and cold for two years and shown no shrinkage or tfefect of any kind. Some of these vehicles have cost us as high as $600.00 some of them as little as $60.00. The $600.00 and $500.00 carriages you can buy for $400 and less some of the buggies and runabouts selling for $75.00 to $100.00 you can buy for nearly 50 less than these prices, and so on throughout them all. They are all marked in plain figures, show ing both the old prices and the new. If you need anything that runs on wheels, for -any purpose, you can buy one of these 442 vehicles at a price ranging from 20 to 40 less than our cost of manufacture. There are also 160 sets of harness, some of which have been in stock two years some of them less. The prices are reduced by about one-half; you can buy a $50.00 harness for $30.00, or a $25.00 harness for $17.50, so long as our present stock holds out. You can select a vehicle and make a deposit on it of 25 and we will hold it for you 60 or 90 days until you want it delivered, or to responsible parties we will extend credit upon a reasonable pay ment down, the balance to be paid in monthly installments. 330 to 336 EAST MORRISON STREET HIEDICIIL TRUST STABBED SENATE MUSTERS OXE I.OXELY FRIEXTUjY VOTE. Chrysanthemums Placed on Desks AVIth Request for Favorable Vote Angers Solons. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Feb. 16. (Special.) The medical trust bill was killed by Indefinite postponement to day, with only one vote In its favor. Even the doctors in the Senate would not stand for it and one of them, Sen ator J. N. Smith, of Marion, moved for indefinite postponement. It is understood that the doctors op posed it because it protected, or gate some recognition to healers of various kinds, and everybody else opposed it because it proposed to prevent anyone The Man Who Eats Well And Enjoys Food Lives Life as He Should and Gets the Most From It. The man who eats is the man who works, and the man who works is the man who wins. Tireless workers de pend upon a storehouse of vim and vigor. India Is noted for its fasters and its dreamers. Europe and America for their eaters and their workers. In America we have been doing nothing but work this past quarter of a century. That is why our old men say, "In my days no one had dyspepsia." Of course, all men In those days ate and worked, now they work and eat. If eating interferes with business, men give up eating. This is good logic for the dollar-getter, but poor wisdom for the man who really wants to live. Abuse of anything God given results in jfunishment. and man is a pigmy when It comes to cheating his system. If you take from the system that which Is intended should remain, or Dut Into It that which is Intended should be kept out. you are cheating yourself, and sooner or later pay the penalty. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are con centrated vegetable and fruit essences which give the system every fluid, stimulant and Ingredient necessary to gain the fullest strength from every thing which goes into the stomach, or to keep from the ' system everything which should not lay and decay in it. If you will eat fast and improperly, if you will drink and eat irregularly and to excess, then give to Nature as you do so enough of the essences she demands to neutralize the bad effects of your habits. After a meal take a Stuart Dyspepsia Tablet, -and the meal won't hurt you or your stomach. At a midnight dinner take a Stuart tablet and you will sleep well and get up without a breath which is filled with the decay of the midnight meal. Fortify your stomach like you do your business. Fortunes when lost can be regained, but the stomach outraged stays with you to the finish, and you know it is there. If you want to know what these tablets will do, buy a package from any druggist, price BO cents, or send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package free by mail. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 160 Stuart Building, Marshall, Mich. except a licensed physician from ad ministering any kind of medicine. During the noon recess today some Portland physicians placed upon the desks of the Senators a circular letter urging the passage of the bill, with a chrysanthemum pinned on each letter. This displeased a number of Senators and strengthened their opposition to the bill. The vote for the indefinite postpone ment of the bill, P. B. 201. was one of the most enthusiastic votes at this session. SEE ROSE CITY PARK And You Will Buy SAN FRANCISCO & PORTLAND STEAMSHIP CO.
