HEYBURN MAKES ATTACK Measure Declared to Have Been Drawn in Interests of Corpora tions Warren Says Govern ment Official Aided WASHINGTON, April 6. Senator 'Warren's toUl authorizing: the disposal of the surplus waters of the Government Ir rigation projects to private corporations "was the subject of prolonged debate in the Senate today. When Warren moved to take up the bill, no vote was cast in the negative, and it was believed that a compromise had been reached that would insure early action. Such did not prove to be the case. Hey burn took the position the states rights amendment would be of no service and denounced them as subterfuges and delusions. - Heyburn Sees Plot Later in the discussion. Heyburn said that the bill had ben dictated by the corporations. Warren denied that such was the case, saying: "I deny that Imputation. I drew the toll, as the result of a suggestion from a Government offichU and not in the in terest of a ny corpora ti on . Much of the day's criticism of the bill by Heyburn was directed to the omission of Individuals from the list of those to whom the Government may deliver water as provided by the bill. He contended that the effect would be to prevent the use of water for domestic purposes. De nouncing the bill as a "crime," he as serted that he could explain the apparent willingness of Senators to permit the measure to pass only on the ground that they failed either to comprehend the terms of the bill or to appreciate their duty. Individuals Are Included. Senator Carter proposed an amendment including individual consumers, but- wliile the amendment was accepted by all, this action did not put a stop to the discussion. Heyburn was again sharply antagonized by lils colleague, Borah, who, in em phatic terms, declared the bill to be in the interest of the people of Idaho and acceptable to them. Pointing out that the bill provided only for payment for the delivery of water by the Government, he contended that it did not authorize the sale of water, as had "been asserted. "Then, how can the Government sell?" inquired the senior Senator from Idaho. Borah Takes Issue. "The Government does not sell it." re plied the Junior Senator from Idaho. "The bill so provides," positively as serted Heyburn. "It does not do anything of the kind," even more emphatically replied Borah. Both Senators evidently were . stirred over the situation. Later Heyburn ex pressed regret at the conflict with his colleague Borah did not appear to be at all placated by the mild manner of his associate. "He differs not only from me, but from the state land board and all others who have the matter in charge." he said. With this exchange "of amenities, the bill was laid aside for the day. Kail road Bill Vote Asked. WASHINGTON. April 6. The Senate will take up the railroad bill in ear nest next Monday. Senator Elkins. who Is In charge of the bill, gave notice to day that after the conclusion of rou tine business on Monday he would ask to have It voted on, "if no one is ready to make a speech." The notice was favorably accepted generally. Anti-Option Bill Favored. WASHINGTON. April 6.

NEWPORT SEEKS REDRESS Town Wants Damages From Man Who Bnnjrled Tax Levy. NEWPORT. Or.. April fi. Special. V Newport's City Council will ascertain if it is- possible to recover damages from County Clerk Wade, through whoe3 error the Town of Newport lost an op portunity to collect $1500 in taxes. The city Is handicapped now for lack of funds and much-needed road Improve ments are delayed. Whether cows shall run at largo within the corportate limits of Newport is still a mooted question. The Mayor does not believe the charter amendment recently adopted provides for redress from owners of cows which wander in from the coun try. Because this city is without a lawyer, the Council has let the legal issue drag along, and an early decision is not expected. , ABERDEEN SEES ROAD MAY 1 Grays Harbor.

Every one ought to have some extra flesh on the bony structure of the body, both for the sake of health and self-esteem.

Every one pities a thin, bony horse, but horses don't know it while thin people are both pitied and ridiculed. It ought not to be so, but it is. A well-rounded figure, be it man or woman, excites admiration; not only for the figure but for the bright eyes, pink cheeks, red Hps, and vigorous carriage- which accompany a well-nourished body.

Thomas Oustavius, who was found on the big steel draw bridge, his mind a blank, three weeks ago, is still a puzzle to doctors. Gustavlus could not walk, speak, or write when found on the bridge, but since then he has regained his power to write. Testerday he wrote that he could not talk, though he tried to. Gustavlus is cared for by fellow-prisoners In the County Jail. A few days ago Gustavlus could not get up to eat. and all efforts to awaken him were futile. He was breathing hard and Deputy Sheriff George John son was called. He attempted to awaken Gustavlus by dripping water on his eyes, but even this had no ef fect. The next day the patient got up long enough to eat and relapsed Into a stupor. It is likely that he will be sent to the state hospital for the Insane at Stellacoom in a few days, if he does not recover his' senses.

ACTIVITY THOUGHT HILL'S Harney County Sees Signs of Boise & Coos Bay Road Building. BURNS, " Or.. April v6.-(Speclal. The presence here this week of John E. Burchard and W. P. Davidson, of St. Paul, making an examination of the Wil lamette Valley & Cascade Mountain Wagon Road Company lands. Is taken as the best assurance yet given of the early construction of the Boise & Coos Bay Railroad by the Hill interests, with whom the capitalists represented by the St. Paul men are known to be intimately associated. They came here from Vale In automo biles and William Hanley accompanied them over a portion of the road lands in this county, with which they were well pleased. From here they went westward along the company's grant through Crook County. It Is known that the Minneapolis & St. Paul men who are negotiating tor the road lands have been the Immediate fore runners of Hill construction work, buying and developing desirable properties known to be tributary to the contemplated rail roads. Their purchase of the Wagon Road Company lands, therefore, has a deep meaning for .this part of Oregon. Immediate activity by the Hill people la thought further assured by the fact that a large party of engineers under the direction of Stevens A Budd, of the Oregon Trunk. Is now working eastward from Crook County, having reached the) west line of Harney County, near Wagon tire Mountain. Cheek Forged, Two Arrested. VANCOUVER, Wash, April . (Spe cial.)

Keep this advice fresh in your mind right now, and when you purchase bread, do not let the other fellow paddle your canoe for you, and give you an inferior substitute, when you can, just as easily, and at the same price, secure Table Queen Bread. Table Queen is guaranteed to be made from the purest and most eosth' ingredients obtainable, a large share of them being imported direct from Ger many. Table Queen is mixed "under the supervision of admittedly the most scientific bread expert on the Pacific Coast. Table Queen is baked by the most skilled and highest paid bakers in the United States. Table Queen is baked in eight white, enamel-faced steam ovens of the latest and most improved type, each oven having a capacity of ten thousand loaves daily. The secret of delicious bread lies in the oven. Most ovens bake in a dry heat ours in live steam. These great Royal ovens are made with low roofs to retain all moisture rising from the bread- Then other steam is forced in under terrific pressure, superheated to 340 de gree. In this fierce- heat the starch granules swell until they burst into a myriad of particles, so the yeast cells quickly convert themselves into sugar. The result is the most perfect loaf ever baked it is so moist and dainty, and of such a delicious flavor that it is nothing less "than a revelation in bread baking. Table Queen is baked in absolutely the cleanest and most sanitary bakery oh top of this earth a bakery incased in plate glass, so that all Portlanders may look through the windows and witness the preparation of toothsome Table Queen; and, if they desire, they may step inside and watch every process, for we have nothing to hide we're proud of our Royal-made 'products. Table Queen is taken by our neatly uniformed deliverymen, hot from the ovens, and in ten minutes it is delivered to the first grocer; in a few hours it is in every store. The price is five cents a loaf, and in quality it has no competitor. Hi ROYAL BAKERY & COWFECTOMRY, Inc Insist on Getting TABLE QUEEN Look for the Word ROYAL. Impressed on the Bottom of the Loaf OPTION LAW ATTACKED UMATILLA SEINERS OF -NEAR BEEH RAISE POINT. If Contention Is Upheld They Will Escape and County Will Be "Wet" Again. - PENDLETON, Or., April 8. (Spe cial.) Insisting that the canvassing board failed to comply with the law, and that the County Court, In Issuing Its "dry" order, acted without official Information and not according to law. Attorneys J. H. Raley and J. P. Win ter are seeking to have the local op tion law, in so far as it applies to Umatilla County, declared null and void. They Ray that the law specifically requires the canvassing board to can vass the election returns and then notify- the County Court of the result. They hold that then and only then is the County Court empowered to issue an order forbidding the continuance of liquor selling within the county. While the point is purely technical. It makes a clear-cut issue. The facts in the case will be stipulated by both sides and the courts given a chance to pass upon the question without delay. Raley and Winter represent 20 clients who were recently indicted for viorat ing the law, on the ground that the "near beer" they were selling con tained more than 3 per cent alcohol. If their contention is upheld their clients will not only escape fines, but Uma tilla County will be taken out of the dry column.
