STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan.
24 (Special.) Governor West is to
be shorn of his executive veto power
by the present Legislative Assembly.
His threats are to react and result
in leaving him an almost negligible
factor.
A quiet agreement has been reach
ed among members of both houses by
which the Legislature will have the
opportunity of passing on every veto
which the Governor applies to the
. bills of this session. There is a suffi
cient backing in each house to make
this move a success.
The plan is simply to take an ad
journment for a week at the end of
the 40 days of the session. The Gov
ernor has five days in which to sign
a bill, veto it, or automatically allow
it to become a law.
The Legislature is given power to
adjourn from time to time as it sees
fit unless it adjourns sine die. Under
the constitution it cannot adjourn for
a longer period than three days at
any one time without adjourning sine
die, but by a concurrent resolution of
both Houses this rule can be changed
and the Legislature may adjourn for
a week, 10 days or any time it sees
fit and can remain in session as long
as it desires.
The only drawback is the fact that
the legislators will receive their per
diem only for the 40 days of the session.
SALEM, Jan. 24., (Special.) Fights
on veto bills of the Governor consum
ed the major portion of the legisla
tive session today, four bills in the
House and the Thompson bill in the
Senate being carried over his veto,
the four bills in the House being Sen
ate bills, and all five bills being laws.
In the house Gill introduced a bill
regulating fishing in the Necanicum
River and also regulating the board
ing of prisoners at county jails by
sheriffs.
Senator Dimick caused the uproar
of the day when in the Senate he an
nounced that the special committee
which has been named to investigate
the Oregon Naval Militia will meet
for the first of the investigation on
board the Cruiser Boston in Portland
Sunday morning at 9:30 o'clock.
His talk on that subject was in
jected with humor and witty sallies
on Senator Joseph, of Multnomah,
chairman of the committee as well
as at George Shepard, who was large
ly responsible for the present investi
gation being brought about.
The House today passed the wid
ows' pension bill. Otherwise the day's
proceedings were quiet, although four
House bills passed the Senate includ
ing one which" abolishes the office of
state land agents.
Both Houses took a short recess

HODES BELIEVED
FOUL PLAY VICTIM
AUTHORITIES SEARCH IN VAIN
FOR MISSING ORGEGON CITY
SALOON MAN
INVESTIGATION AIDED BY BROTHER
Report That Hodes was Seen in Port
land Monday Afternoon
Proves to be Untrue
The mystery surrounding the dis
appearance of pari Hodes, the saloonkeeper;-
depens daily and it is
now confidently believed by Sheriff
Mass and Chief of Police Shaw, wno
have made a search for the man, that
he was the victim of foul play. Not
the slightest clue has been obtain-i
ed of tne man's whereabouts, although
a systematic search has been made
since last Saturday night. Hodes dis
appeared early that afternoon, and,
according to one eport, he had $1,500.
The sheriff anJ police, however, are
of the opinion that he had less than
$100.
A report that Hodes was seen Mon
day in Portland by an employe of the
Mason & Ehrman Company has been
found to be groundless. T. G- Mil
ler, the electrician, saw the saloon
man at 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon
and George Simmons, formerly in the
theatrical business, saw him between
6 and 7 o'clock the same evening. So
far as is known Simmons was the last
man who was acquainted with Hodes
to see him.
The missing man was devoted to his
family, "which consists of a wife and
five children, and was in good circum
stances financially. The authorities
so far have been unable to learn any
reason that might cause him to de
sert his family, unless he left while
suffering from mental aberration. He
fell on the sidewalk about two weeks
ago and sustained an injury to his
head, which, it is possible, unbalan
ced his mind, although the physician
who dressed the injury said it was
not serious. Hodes had lived in Ore
gon City eight years, having come
here from Corvallis. A brother, who
lives in Corvallis, and a brother-in-law,
who lives in San Francisco, were
in this city Friday aiding in - the
search for the missing man. Mrs.
Hodes and her children are almost
prostrated as a result of the disap
pearance of Mr. Hodes. He is about
42 years of age, almost six feet tall,
weighs about 200 pounds and is a
decided blond.

his footing and fell under the wheels.
Several minutes later when Edward

tracted by groans. As he drew near

were in the station, Miller was remov
ed to the waiting room. Drs. Meiss
ner and Hempstead were summoned,
and after a hasty examination had the
man removed to the Oregon City Hos
pital. At the hospital Miller was
able to give his' name and said that

gon several months ago from Des
Moines, la. His mother is Mrs. F.
C. Miller, and she is visiting a friend
in Willamette. The injured man said
they had lived at 2119 Ninth Street,
Des Moines.
All efforts to notify Mrs. Miller of
her son's injury were unavailing this
morning, the telephone service to
Willamette being closed. He lost
much blood before he was found and
given medical attention.
