roasted Chairman AsWbrook of the
Committee of Coinage Weights and

"chloroforming" the applabox bill in
which the growers, granges and com
mission men of the west are. inter

Jugglery" at fifteen minutes 'before
quitting time of the House of Rep
resentatives yesterday evening.
: His speech made a decided hit, es
. pecially when he stated that had Eve
in the Garden of Eden had a Hood
River apple to taste of she would have
lost all desire for the forbidden fruit.
He i warned his colleagues that the
barrel bill which Western members
had ' just passed before the 'box bill
was sidetracked, had not yet reached
the Senate. -""..

, speech: : .- .. .. . . ..

'.. The interest of Hood River county
alone in this bill may be seen when
I ell you that last year , thero was
shipped from this one Oregon county
1,600 cars of apples. Over 1,000,000
boxes were used in the trade, in-this
county alone..' , ' (
Mr. Chairman I desire to protest
most vigorously against the sidetrack
ing of this bill yesterday.
"They that have done this deed are
honorable, ' 'i
What private griefs they have; alas
I know not,
That madte them do it; they are wise
and honorable
And will no doubt with reasons an
swer you." ' J?
I have just one word to say by
way of admonition and not by way of
threat. It's this, that the apple bar
rer bill which we Western members
helped to pass in the House yesterday
has not yet passed the Senate." (Applause).

Correll Appeals to Legislators.
t Salem, Jan. 20. The Eastern Ore
gon delegation in the legislature want
the tax law changed, according to a
meeting of the members today. They
favor the bill of Barrett, the inten-.
tion of which is to remedy the faults
in the law in forqe, although excep
tions made by the members to tne
provisions made by the members to
the provisions ' for the - interest pen
alty which Barrett sets at 8 per cent
for non-payment of the first half of
the tax. They regard the tax amend
ment of Senator Smith favorably, al
though nothing definite was done in
the matter. : Smith would bring the
assessment , and collection in ' one
year.' ; The assessor would begin on
January ; 1 and the complete ; roll
would be done by the second Monday
in June, torbes reported the coy
ote bounty bill, now in committee,
would probably be given to the house
with a provision of $3 per head.
S. O. Correll of Baker urged the
delegation to support Senator Stray
er's bill to. enact a uniform branding
law on the ground that it would stop
rustling and result in a brand in
spector for each county '
The legislators clerks and steno
graphers total 155, within two of
the number employed in the session
of 1913, and not all the help secured
yet. The former roll will be exceed
ed and the economy planin this re
spect fruitless. '
The reorganization of the state
raval militia upon a more efficient
basis and a reduction in the appro
priation allowed for its maintenance
is recommended by the majority re
