Representative Schuebel of this city, has a bill before the. house that should pass but will not. It is to do away with the lobbies that are pack ing the state capitol at Salem. I was told by a man from Salem the other day that it was a disgrace to the state the way the timber, in surance, water power and meat lob bies swarmed over the building and button-holed the members. And it makes us ask "Don t our representatives know their business? Have they got to be advised? Shall the trusts be allowed to have their own legislature in the capitol build ing and tell the men the voters elect ed what to do? The bad feature of this lobby bus iness is that it is always one sided. You seldom see a lobby of the little fellows, the farmers, the day workers, etc., at the capitol. They haven't the organization or the money to spend, and they wouldn't know what to do if they had a lobby. A legislature that is on the square has no use for the lobbyist. When it isn t on the square, it has. Keep your eye on Schuebel's bill and see which class the legislators place themselves. KILL THE PAY BOOSTING. And still they poke in the salary increase bills at Salem, and when the session closes with a hurrah you will find a number of them have slipped through. One of the latest is a thous and dollar boost to the salary of the county clerk of Portland. He wants $4,r00. The way I look at these pay raising propositions is that the candidate fo the office should have told the people he would have asked for a raise when ho was tearing his clothes for the nomination and the election. Not one of them would have been elected if they had, therefore when the legislature raises their pay it does just what the people they represent did not want done ,hence is not rep re sentative. Perhaps Oregon does not pay suf ficient salaries in some places, but with taxes where they have been for the past few years, the taxpayers think they are sufficient. Let the log. islature cut out about fifty of our un. needed commissions and quit making new jobs for a session or two, then perhaps the voters would be willing to look into the matter of salary in creasing. Representative Cnrkln of Medford, introduced a bill in the house that should pass, requiring candidates for judges or prosecuting attorneys to be admitted to the bar. This is just a plain, common-sense law that would make a man fit himself for the place. A man has no business to be a county judge or prosecuting attorney who does not know law; he has no busi ness prosecuting or dealing out just ice unless he knows what the law de fines in prosecutions or what justice is. But the bill should have been a lit tle broader and embraced justices of the peace as well for this is one of the weakest spots in Oregon's justice. STAYING WITH THEIR GRAFT. One of the nastiest pieces of work the Oregon senate ever did was the defeat last week of the bill of Senator Smith of Coos County, providing that in personal injury damage suits the Judge before whom the suit is tried shall fix the lawyer's fees. AND THE SENATE KILLED THIS BILL. The senate killed it because almost half the senators were LAWYERS, and they didn't want to be driven off their loot. These lawyers draw up a contract with the man who Is hurt and he has to agree to give them HALF OF THE VERDICT or they won't try the case. And this is the senate whose mem bers are preaching economy, retrench ment, and as one of them said before a committee recently "we are playing the poor man s game this session." Nine of the 12 lawyers in the sen ate, men sent there to work for the greatest good of the people, voted AGAINST this measure and killed it and every man who did would have to climb a ladder to get up on the same plane with a common graft er. Three lawyers voted FOR the meas ure, and the Courier will put their names in caps. They were men who knew they were playing a losing game but who stood out for the poor devil who got a hand or loot oil under a car or got mangled in a mill. They were: DIMICK of Oregon City. IIALLIS of Forest Grove. JOSEPH of Portland. TIME TO SPANK. If you tell your kid if he does a certain thing again you will punish him, and then don't make good, very soon the youngster will get wise that you are just bluffing and he won't pay any attention to your edicts. Mr. Tooze toold the Live Wires Tuesday that the city council had simply been up against it in trying to enforce the laws of Oregon City and that they had accomplished very little. And I wonder if it isn't because for years the city fathers of this city have just threatened the children, never punished, and they now have no fear of the fathers? Some time ago the city passed a rather drastic ordinance against horse traders, and among the provisions were those that a rig should not oc cupy a hitching rack but for a cer tain time; that "for sale" signs should not be displayed on any horse or an imai, and so on with some very tight if not strictly constitutional provisions. On the corner of Eighth and Main streets a half dozen horse traders were talking over the new ordinance, when one of them remarked m my hearing: "Oh don t fret. It will never be en. forced. They will forget it in a week." Will some one rise and explain WHY an ordinance compelling own res of property to cut the grass and weeds in the parkings in front of their property CAN'T be enforced? What was the law ever passed for, if it can't be? And will tne next man tell me WHY the city can't compel a proper. ty owner to keep his sidewalk in a THIS ONE WILL PASS. Only one lonesome representative inetzei or Marion County) voted against representative Gill's bill which makes the possession of a gov. ernment license sufficient evidence that he is selling liquor, and increas ing the fine and adding- a prison sen tence. I would like to know on what line of reasoning the lone champion of Diind pigs' sustained his protest to such a bill. When a man takes out a govern ment license in dry territory he takes it out because he is coine to sell booze and sell it in secret violation of his state laws. Mr. Gill knew this when he drew the bill to flag them ,and every man in tne nouse knew it. It is one of the best bills introduc ed. It will force the government to take a hand in the "blind pig" pens and make the business mighty risky. ine senate will not dare stop this measure of reform, because there is absolutely no excuse. SanFrancisco offers $137,000,000 for Spring Valley water. Wonder why they don't use "hypo?" It looks as if that bill providing for the sterilization of degenerate crimi nals was going1 to pass. It went thru the house in a gallop and it will take a lot of sand in the senate to oppose it. It's a radical measure. There is nothing like it in this coun try. But it applies only to a class of men who are unfit to associate with decent people. Schuebel of thjs city worked hard for its passage. GIVE US FREE SUGAR. The beet sugar growers say reduct ion on sugar duties would hurt them. and free sugar would ruin them. Come on with the ruin! When the owner of land in this bie country has to ask for protection tor his Bugar crop against worn out acres in foreign countries, then these sugar growers had better quit the beets and go to raising beans.

If the city CAN'T enforce its laws against dangerous sanitary condit ions; against foul garbage dumps in the back yards and streets, stagnant cess pools and open ditches, WHAT are city laws and state health laws for? thousands of consumers. A FOOL BILL. THE PARASITE. I hope the legislature will find time to get a law through that will cut out a middleman society has no earth ly use for the scavenger- who stands between the injured and his indem nity. The mill owner stands ready to make good to the injured man. It is a part of their system to figure on dumages they must pay to injured With a splendid zeal for the eood of Oregon, Senator Dan Kellaher of Portland has introduced a bill under which none except residents of the state for at least two years shall be permitted to bid on contracts for Ihese ordinances, and many other state or countv buildings or imnrovn- necessary but dead city laws CAN be ments. and no architect exceDt those enforced. in Oree-on shall be allowed t.n drnw Every other city of our size enfbrc- plans or superintend any public work. es them.

John Stark has an interesting letter on the matter of the value of money in this issue. The Courior editor does not pose as a heavy student of finan ces, but he would like to ask Mr.Stark why havo any metal at all behind the government a money if his theory is correct, that it is the government stump that Rives gold its purchasing value? Why not just take a piece of paper, the samo as our gold certifi cates and have the government say it lb money, and it chall UK money? Why carry the big gold reserve? age verdict of $1,000 when they know the injured man will never get a cent over $500. Today if a man gets hurt this law yer parasite will stop the ambulance if he can and warn the injured man to stand pat, refuse to settle and come to him. He will have him sign a con tract that t,he lawyer shall get one- half of the damage verdict, and then he will black mail and keep the case in the courts. The injured man loses his job for ever, his chances are lessened for getting a job anywhere else, and the lawyer gets fully half the damages. Oregon wants a law that will put a price on a man s injuries the day he hurt; it wants a law that will cut out all lawyers' fees and court ttachments, and give the injured ALL that the employer has to pay. Today the lawyer gets damages. THIS SPEEDY AGE. If it is necessary to put one man in jail to make 500 others have some respect for city government, then the quicker the better. Law is no good unless you force its respect. I have been in Kansas when any man could walk up to an open bar in the cities, call for a drink and get it, And I have been in the same cities in Kansas when a man couldn't get enough to dampen his tongue if he threw a fit on the street. These times were before and after law enforcement. It's time for this city to enforce its laws or annul its charter. This is no longer a four corners or tough western dump. Cut out threatening to spank, and just spank. One spank will be worth more than a rod of threatening or coaxing. Let s enforce our necessary laws, repeal the others and be some city. There is an editor down in Rich mond, Cal., with an awfully blunt name (Hulaniski) but a mighty sharp pencil, -and Borne of his quaint ob servations are mighty good dope Here's one of a dozen or two pat ones he fills the live editorial page with each week: When we were 20 we used to spend a day's wages for a dance ticket, dance all night and work next day for the price of another ticket. Now we can't understand why folks don't hire someone to do that sort of hard work for them. Why when sixty solons, at great personal sacrifice, insist, regardless of the int'onvenionce, on managing to get along with only ninely-fivo sten ographers and stenogrnpheresses, it is tin example of consecration that mak es one think of George Washington and 1770! Portland Journal. They suy Dan J. Malarkcy wants to fill Chamberlain's pluce in the United States senate in 1911. At the "movies" the other night a picture of Batery D. in New York showed a street car drawn by horses, and the crowd laughed. And don't we progress ? It wasn't so many years ago, and no doubt many who laughed at the odd sight remember it, when a street car drawn by horses wasn't anything to laugh at, but on the contrary was a wonder to the day, and when they first appeared, people would stop on the street and watch them pass, and no doubt many who jeered at the "horse car," as seen in the motion pictures can remember their first ride in one, so great an event was it. And fifty years from now, if one of our 1913 autos can be found, the motion picture follows will stage it, and we will look at the pictures and laugh at it as we do the horse car or as we would at one or the old high wheeled bycycles. This is an age of change, progress and "get there." After weeks of after-election spec ulation on causes, the papers figured it out that the reason Olcott's "Blue Sky" bill clouded over on Election day was that it provided for state finds to keep the clouds away. So now another has been drafted and in. troduced at Salem, and this one pro. vides that those who would have their stocks passed on must pay for the passing that the fees shall nav all tne administration expenses. Such a bill would have been passed by the voters, but it remains to be seen what the legislature will do to it. SIX MEN ON ONE JOB. Quarreling With Fate N O IT is surprising how little fate has to do with our position in life. The in dustrious and the economical person lute few complaints against destiny. He may have no more brains than tho spend thrift, but lu knows the value Of saving, lie sees the importance of laying up a few treasures on earth. TI1C BANK Oldest Bank OF OREGON CITY In Clackuma County Here's the idea a plain old farmer of this county, who just plugs along and pays taxes. And it isn't so bad: "Do away entirely with the state senate; do away with two-thirds of the house. Elect ONE representat ive from each county and pay salary enough to get a man big enough and broad enough to represent the WHOLE county." What do you think about it? On first consideration it is not so bad. This would cut out about GO representatives, their salaries, ex penses, stenographers and clerks, and it would bring the legislature down to about 30, and down to a size where every voter could keep his eye on it and know just who did and who did not represent. The success would hang largely on getting the right man for the places Oregon has some large counties, coun. ties with vaied interests, and such counties would have to have large men, men who knew every foot of the counties and who could legislate for all of it. Now think this proposition over a little before you call it a dream. Take Clackamas county for example and see If the farmer's idea would not work out just as well as under the present plan. We have Dimick, senator, Malark ey as half senator; we have Gill, schuebel, Schnoerr as representative es and Lofgren as half representat ive six legislators in all for this one county, and-every man of them lives right here in the western edge of the county, within a square of 25 miles. Don't you believe that ONE man one RIGHT man, a big, brainy cap. able fellow, could represent this coun ty just as well (and perhaps a shade better) than SIX men? It would seem that the time is really near when the farmers have got together to combine for their own advantage, instead of plodding along and watching everybody and everything combine against them for their disadvantage. If shoe manufacturers need protection why is it that they sell immense quantities or shoes abroad in competition with for eign countries? Portland Jour nal. Ask the same question of the cloth ing makers, the stove foundries, the farm implement manufacturers, the automobile factories in fact, ask it of almost every big manufacturer of tne country, and see if you get any answer. President Malarky has introduced in the senate a bill providing for two twenty-day sessions of . the legisla ture, sixty days apart, and that no bills shall be introduced' during the last session. At first glance it looks good, the only bad feature appearing is the beautiful opening for lobbying that it presents the heart to heart, man to man opportunity. Thirty-six states have ratified the income tax amendment, and now con gress must impose an income tax. And the wonder is that our country has so long waited, that it has taaken all these years to arouse a sentiment to force state legislatures to ratify the amendment. Such a law simply says a man shall pay taxes in propor tion to his income, and anv man snouid. Salem. The progress made during the third week of the legislative ses sion seems to indicate that members of the legislature are trying to live up to their voluntary pledges to get down to serious work early in the ses sion and keep at It and thus avoid the congestion of business witnessed during the closing hours of previous sessions. The early and diligent at tentlon to business, however, has to some extent been offset by the large volume' of business and poor work on the part of some of the committees, necessitating referring back to them many bills. With the legislative session half through, the aiembers of both branch es find themselves farther along In their work than has marked any pre vious session. It is said. The amount of routine work accomplished Is enor mous, despite frequent snappy debates over the pabsage of bills. Both houses have agreed to forbid the introduction of bills after the twenty-fifth day of the session, except upon consent of three-fourths of the body In which a bill Is offered. The close of the third week of the session finds 42 senate bills passed by the senate and 66 bouse bills passed by the house, with 13 bills that have gone through both houses approved by the governor. So far there have been no vetoes. In the house the total number of bills presented is 433, where two have been voted down. 13 have been with drawn and 16 Indefinitely postponed, in addition to the 56 that have passed. In the senate 10 bills have been de feated on roll call, eight have been withdrawn, 12 indefinitely postponed, and 42 passed, out of 210 Introduced. No Bill Carry Emergency Clause None of the bills carry an emer gency clause and will not become laws until 90 days after the adjourn ment of the legislative assembly. Probably the most important bill so far Bigned Is that abolishing the office of state land agent. Another act of some import Is one providing that a wife deserter who Is convicted shall be compelled to work on the county roads for the time for which he has been sentenced, and that the county shall pay his family 1 a day for each such day worked. Appropriations Have Light Week Appropriation requests made during the third week of the legislative ses sion reached a total of $647,415, by far the lightest week so far. This brings the total of requests up to 14, 106,263, and not .a general appropria tion bill even in sight. This makes It certain that the amount of the re quests will go well up to the $9,000, 000 mark. This week will tell the story as. to what anxious taxpayers may expect In regard to appropriations. It should be remembered, In this regard, that many appropriation measures are du plicated in senate and house and that many bills Intended to assist In emp tying the state coffers will be killed. , The sum total, In any event, must be larger than it was at the last session 1 on account of the money which should be expended in adequately advertising the resources of Oregon at the Pana-; ma-Pacific Exposition and at the San Diego Exposition and also for a com prehensive system of building and maintaining highways. Contest on State Printer Is Started. The expected state printer fight has appeared In the legislature. Only the skirmish line waa.thrown out, but that it will be a fight was indicated by the appearance of three bills, two of them Identical, but these two diametrically oposed to the third. One, introduced by Abbott, is to repeal the flat salary law of 1911, which Is due to become effective In 1915 If not repealed. The other two provide that the gov ernor, secretary of state and state treasurer shall control the state print ing office and that the jrtate printer shall be appointed by tftt board at a salary of $1800 a year and not latr than December 16, 1B1. All of the sections of the 1911 flat salary law are repealed in these bills. Barrett Road Bill Passed in Senate Passage of the Barrett county bond ing road bill by the senate probably wilt mean the calling of a Joint con ference committee to act on the Bar rett and Hurd bills. The Hurd bill passed the house and Is known as the Orange bill. While both are county bonding acts they are by no means Identical. The Barrett bill provides that the county court shall be the supervising power in road matters, but the people of counties Bhali vote on the question of road bonds. The Hurd or Grange bill provides for election of delegates In road dis tricts, Shese delegates to attend, a county road meeting to determine up on road questions. House Overrides More Vetoes The follpwlng vetoed bills were passed by the house: Bill requiring depot agents to post at once Information received as to de layed trains for the convenience of the traveling public. Requiring abut ting property-ownerSjOn county roads to destroy thistles and other noxious weeds, and providing a penalty for J not doing so. Requiring school direc tors to pay for material and labor where, through their own careless ness, contractors leave unpaid bills. Prohibiting expenditures over and above the sums appropriated for any public institution or department of the state and creating an emergency board to look after such work. Pro viding that no expenditure shall be made before an appropriation Is made. Question When Vetoed Bills Effective Just when the veto bills of the gov ernor that have been passed by the constitutional two-thirds majority of both houses go Into effect is a ques tion that has arisen In the light of the fact that a number of the governor's vetoed bills have gone over his head. It also develops the point as to whether the vetoed bills, which have been passed notwithstanding the veto of the governor, are subject to a ref erendum ef the people. The members of the senate Judici ary committee hare reached a conclu sion that the vetoed bills do not be come laws until 90 days after ad journment of the legislative session and are subject to a referendum of the people If such Is desired. Saloons in Depots Prohibited -Under amendments which have been made to the Hosklns bjll In the sen ate regulating the sale of liquor near depots, the bill now prohibits the lo cation of a saloon in any depot, under the same roof as the depot, or In an adjacent building. Originally the bill was Intended to prohibit saloons from being located within 300 feet of a de pot. The bill is also amended to ex clude drug stores from Its provisions, Bill Proposes Petition Regulations The name of every person or com. pany interested In an initiative meas ure must have his, her or Its name plainly printed on the cover of any petition circulated under the Initiative law and must make known to the world that he, she or it is so interest ed, according to a proposed amend. ment to the initiative law, introduced by Representative Latourette, of Mult nomah county. In the house. This bill also provides that no per son may solicit for pay more than 250 names on any measure without first receiving from the governor a license, something like a notarial commission, after which he may proceed to solicit Protects Wages From Loan Shark Protection against loan sharks Is the object of a bill introduced by Senator Farrell. It provides that no assign ment of wages shall be valid to secure ' a loan of less than $200, unless it Is : accepted In writing by the employer, ! and no such assignment Is to be held I valid, when made by a married man, except by the written consent of his wife. Free Textheoks Advocated oenaior Day introduced a bill pro- Tiding that free textbooks shall be furnished In all the public schools of the state except In high schools. The bill provides that each school district shall pay for Its own books. Any teacher or anyone connected officially with the public schools Is prohibited from In any way being fi nancially connected with the purchase of such books. vllle, were Adopted by both houses. Senator Calkins' bill fixing the sal ary of the governor's private secretary at $3000 a year was passed by the Benate by a vote of 18 to 12. The senate defeated the house bill of the revision of laws committee to repeal an ancient act allowing coun ties to maintain tuberculosis sana torlums. Anyone wishing to teach music, ei ther vocal or instrumental, will have to be licensed before so doing, ac cording to the provisions of a bill In troduced In the house. Sale of liquor to a minor or allowing a minor to play any games around a place where liquor Is sold will result In forfeiture of the license and a heavy penalty under the provisions of a bill Introduced by Senator Calkins. The house has adopted Representa tive Blancliard's memorial to congress asking for the repeal of all patent rlgh,; and copyright laws, as being one of the principal bulwarks of monopoly and the main cause of the high cost of living. To give to the governor power to veto any part or several parts of a . general appropriation bill where It car ries appropriations of sums of uoney for various purposes, Is the constitu tional amendment to be submitted to the people at the next general election.

Some idea of the success achieved by Werba and Luescher's latest op era, "The Rose Maid," which Alan Dale in the New York American de clared to be prettier than its sister opera, "The Spring Maid," may be obtained from the following which ap peared the other day in the New York Evening Journal: "The Rose Maid," the pretty and tuneful operetta now at the Globe theatre, has scored that rarest of rare things in the summertime, a cumulative success. And if you have any doubt as to what that might be, go to the Globe theatre ,and the crowds there every night will be an explanation. It is a not uncommon thing for an opera to be successful during the spring and settle down for a summer run, but that is not what "The Rose Maid" has done. It has made its in itial bow and has been settling up weekly to ever increasing receipts that prove it is becoming more and more popular as the weather becomes hotter. There are a number of excellent reasons for this. Its music, by Bruno Branichstaedten, is of the catchy, yet musicianly sort that is manufactured abroad, while its dramatic story is engaging and sensible enough to make you wonder why you are there hearing it. Moreover those in the leading parts in the production, are talented as actors, and there are a number of sensational voices doing justice to the music. "The Rose Maid" is distinctively a worth while entertainment. Skin On Fire ? Just the mild, simple wash, the well known D.D.D. Prescription for Eczema, and the itch Is gone. A trial will prove it.
