ANOTHER QUESTION Can Two ('oiixtltutlonal Amend nieutM hn Tending Under the Inltlatlre at the Kmne Time Inlerratliig- (uer te be Kolved la CourU. Another OjiieMiou hai arinen mirarding the. riiilita of the people in uropoainK aniHiidnirntH tc t!ia stale's conatitntion. It i contended that under the initiative, neither the elate legislature doi the people themaelvea under the initiative can prooM an aniendment to the con stitution while any other such amend ment in pending either in the legislature or liefore tlie people. '"I'he iietion that lias been rained at to the power of the people at this time to submit more than one cointtitulioual amendment at the general election in June, will in no way retard our work to MM'iire the enactment into a law through ttie iniiialive. of a direct primary uomin ating fcnaleni," xaid W. ri. U'Ken, of the Direct 1'ruiiHry Nominations league to day. Mr. U'Ken lays that the Direct Nom inations league is not in a position to tent the iueH(ion that has been raised as to the powers ol the people In propoiog constitutional amendments under the initiative since the only matter of legis lation in which the league i interested at this time is in a Direct l'rlmary Law. lie predicts that the new question re garding the righu of the people as to constitutional amendments will have to be determined in the courts. It ia argued by Mr. U'Ken that no question can logically exist as to the power of the eople in the matter of pro posing amendments. He asserts that the language ol the initiative and refer endum amendment prescribes these power, and in support thereof quotes from the amendment as follows: "The legislative authority of the state shall be vested in a legislative assembly, consist ing of a senate and a house of represen tatives, but the people reserve to them selves the power to propose laws and amendments to the constitution and to enact or reject the same at the polls, in dependent of the legislative asaembly " Arguing on Uiis basis, Mr. U'Ken maintains that through the initi ative is vested iu the people an emer gency power that is entirely independent of the legislature and that proceedings for the amendment of the state's consti tution may be pendlug In the legislature and aleo by initiative set at the same time without in any way conflicting with the constitution. Under toe strict inter pretation ol the initiative and referen dum amendment, Mr. U'Ken takes tbe position that one or more constitutional amendments may be pending under the initiative, independent of the stats legis lature, and no infringement follow to the constitution or the rights conferred by the amendment. The petitions for submitting at tbe general election in Jnne the proposed direct primaiy nominating law, reports Mi. U'Ken will be ready for circulation among the voters Friday of this week. Under the law, these petitions, bearing the required number of signatures, must he filed with the secretary of state by February 6, or four months prior to the date of the June election. Considerable aid will be given the League by the grange organizations of the state in cir culating the petitions lor signatures. At a recent meeting of the Pomona tjrange of Clackamas county a member of each subordinate grange in the county wrs appointed to circulate one of tbe petitions in bis neiglrborhood. Tho' connected with the League are confideut that the necessary nuajber of signers will be se cured to have the proposed law sub mitted to the voters at the election in June. TES TOSS OP BITTER DAILY Dairy Industry of Oregon Attracts Deary Investment. One of the largest and most completely equipped creameiies in the world is to be establinheit in Portland. It is to have a capacity of L'O.OtK) pounds of butter a day, and special ellor!? are to be made to de velop the dairy industry of Oregon. It will be twenty times as large as any now in Portland, much larger than any in Oregon and, in fact, the largest west of Lincoln, Neb. Cream will be shipped into the city from a radius of 800 miles until the dairying industry has been suf ficiently developed to supply the de mand from this state. Every product of the creamery will be supplied from this plant. It is to be established by the Ilazelwood Cresmery Company, which j now has plants operating in Spokane, Lincoln, Topeka and Sioux Cily. Tin plant in Sioux City is the largest in the world. The Heywood building, on Fourth and Oak streets, has been leased by the com pany and will be fitted for the local plant. The lease was closed yesterday and the work of fitting the building for the recep tion of the machinery will commence at once. It is expected that the plant will be ready for operation by March 1. It will have a capacity of 20,000 pounds of butter a day at lirst, but the machinery will be so installed that it may be in creased to 40,000 at any time that the de mand warrants. OKKOON GREAT DAISY COfNTKY. The dairy possibilities afforded by tbe grasi-oovered country ol Oregon have at tracted the attention of the promoters of the company. They believe there is a great field here lor the production of dairy articles, and that the establish ment of a creamery will stimulate this industry until there will be sufficient cream produced in the state to supply one of tbe largest plant in the world. The cream will all be pastureized as soon as it is secured from the cow and then will be shipped to Portlaud for manufacture into butter, ice-cream and other creamery products. Contracts bar already been an ads with dairy maa as far as 800 miles Bay to supply cream for this plant. HKKRlOKKATOa CAKS TO SEIKO CBKAM. This will be a decided change Irom the methods of the existing creameries, all of which draw their snpply of cream from their immediate neighborhoods, and it necessitates a radical change in meth ods. Ass'xm as contracts now nnder negotiation fur a large supply of cream from sll points along the Willamette valley have been closed, a line of refrig erator cars will be put on the railroad to bring the cream to Portland. BeaU'es the precaution taken to keep the milk and cream pure and sweet while in tranait from the dairy to the creamery, the plant will tie fitted with the latest and most improved machinery. An ap sratus is to be installed for the purpose of pasteurizing the air of the butler de partment, also the water used to wash the butter. WILL lltVt baKAT PAY ROLL. The plant that is now running in Spo kane is said to have the largest payroll of any similar institution on the Pacific Cat, but will be small in comparison with the one that will be established here. Portland is to be made the center of tlie creamery business of the West. The plant will draw from every direction aud its products will be sent in every direction. , The officers who are at the head of the company in this city are: David Brown, president; tieorge M. Brown, general nana er; Thomas Armitstead, sales manager. HIKE PEBFECT IS ATTENDANCE. Hupertntendent Ziner Issues Certifi cate lu Pa actual Scholars. County School Superintendent Zinser recently adopted a certificate plan of stimulating attendance st school of tbe pupils of the several districts. The plan has worked with surprising success. If a pupil is perfect in attendance at his school for one month, lie receives a small certificate and if be continues neither absent nor tardy for another two months, he exchanges his initial certificate (or a larger and more attractive one. lie baa just issued certificates to tbe popil io tlie county, who were entitled to this recognition for a three months' record. Those receiving certificates were : Carus School, E. F. Murdock, teacher Edgar Btewart, Lizzie Lewis. Sunnyside School, Bertha Kennedy, teacher Samuel Appling, Julia Ap pling, Maurice Appling, Annie Appling, Ward Mendenhall, Clarence Hill, Henry King, Minnie Oehlschlarger, Margaret Conklin, Olive liubbard, Florence Holm, Carl Naoenkamp.

Hayes, of Gladstone, says that he in tends to have a rowboat built in which be will travel from his home to this city instead of making the trip on the electric cai s as at present. The reason for this is that he believes the trestle north of town to be unsafe, and rather than risk bis life or that of his family further, he will make tbe journey to' and from his home by water. Since tbe O. W. P. & Ry Co. abandoned their work of filling the trestle, tbe structure has been con sidered unsafe by those travelling over it and who are familiar with the situation. Tbe structure is very old and many in this city now travel over the Southern Pacific in journeying to Portland. Other residents continue to travel on the elec tric car, but all who make daily use of this means of transportation would feel much safer if something was done to strengthen this trestle. Died of Pneumonia. Mrs. N. P. 6i inond, aged 31 years, died Tuesday at her home, near the Barclay school, of pnuemonia. The deceased leaves a hus band and a 4-months-old child. The latter was also very ill from pneumonia at the time of the mother's death, and it was scarcely expected that it would sur vive. Mr. Simond is a well-knovn em ploye of the Willamette mill, and is fa vorably known to a large number in this city, who sympathize with him in his deep attliction. Mrs- Simond was an estimable woman. Visitors View th Falls. The Ore gon Water Power & Railway Company ran out of l ortland to this city two spe cial excursions Sunday that were largely patronized by the delegates in attend ance at tbe Livestock Association meet ing in Portland. The visitors were es corted to Canemah Park, where a splen did view is offered of tbe Willamette Falls, which are exceptionally beautiful at this time of year because of the raise in the stage of the Willamette. ."o IMty Khown, "Foryears fate was after me continu ously," wriees F.

PareeU Pent and I'oital Currency Legislation are Endorsed tarfleld In April. Clackamas Dint. Pomona Grange met -in tbe ball of Oweiro Grange No. 175. Jan. H, 1SV4, with a lame attendance. notwithstanding the stormy weather. Orange reports show much improve ment in building and litertry work. Home have completed new halls, one has enlarged tlie building, one has built a kitchen, and a number have built horse sheds, besides three new granites have been organized in the county durng tbe jear. Much interest is manilested in tbe lit erary part of the granite work. A num ber ol granges have divided their mem bership into two classes for a literarr contest the losing side to furnish a feast suitable to the season. Some have or ganized a dramatic club, both for tbe financial and literary benefit of their grange. L on suggestion of State Master B. G. Leedy and order of this grange a mem ber of each subordinate was appointed to circulate petitions to initiate a Direct Primary law and to work along this line with the Direct Legislation League. Resolutions favoring a parcel iot. also a postal currency were introduced by Brother A. M. hliibley, and adopted by the grange, with instructions to (be sec retary to inform our members in congress of this action. Sister Johnson, of Milwaukee Grange. introduced a resolution in favor of a grange agricultural exhibit at tbe Na tional Orauge in Portland next Fall. Tbe grange adopted the resolution and recommended its consideration and adop tion by the subordinate granges of tbe county. J. N. Sawtell, of Molalla Grange 310. announced that a meeting will be held at Maple Lane Grange hall. W ednesday. January 20, 1904, to co-operate in organ izing a Jkiohair pool, also to consider the wool question. The grange adopted a resolution expressing pleasure with the decision of tbe supreme court of Oregon in holding- that the Direct Legislation Amendment was legally enacted, and hoping that a law will soon be passed defining tbe proper nse of tbe "Emer gency Clause." Tbe officers were installed bv Sister E. A. Niblin. of Evening Star Grange, Multnomah county, and ably assisted by Helen Sprague, of Harding Orange, bister Niblin is a very able speaker and her manoer of conducting this ceremony renders it most enjoyable and instructive. Tbe next meeting of Clacuamas Diet, Pomona Grange will be held at Garfield Grange ball. Wednesday, April 13, 1904. C. E. Spsce, Secretary. Benefits op Organization. A short time ago the residents of the snhurb of Gladstone got together and formed an organization to promote the interests of that suburb in an improvement way. The results are already being shown. Sidewalks are being planned and steps taken to construct more sidewalks. Act ual work will soon begin. Electric lights are only a matter of a short time. A sentiment In favor of clean streets and more sightly woodpiles, and other do mestic arrangements is being created, and tbe citizens are full of the spirit of civic improvement. In the few meetings so far held by the Gladstone association an enthusiasm is being manifeeted which speaks much for the effectiveness of such organizations in localities too small for tbe town or city organization. Masons in Banquet. Clackamas Chapter No. 2, Royal Arch Mason, gave their third annual banquet iu the Ma sonic hall last Monday night. Tbe ban quet was a most successful one in all re spects.
