BILL REGULATING The House, with
LOBBYING GOOD ONE one dissent
ing vote, Mon
day passed Representative Schuebel's
bill regulating lobbying. The meas
ure has many fine features, and, ev
ery effort will be made to have it ap
proved by the Senate. It gives the
people and corporations ample lati
tude in presenting their views through
paid agents at the capital. Similar
bills have been in force in several
other states and have been found to
be of decided benflt in obtaining leg
islation. The measure does not pro
hibit "lobbying"' as some persora
seem to think. It simply puts "lobby
ing" on a substantial footing. It is
aimed to prevent underhand influence
of members of the Legislature. The
most salient provision is the one mak
ing it incumbent upon corporations
and their agents, within one week
after the employment of the latter,
enter the name of the agent in a Leg
islative docket. It is provided" that
the Secretary of State shall keep two
Legislative dockets, one to contain
the names of the Legislative counsel
before committees, and the other the
names of the Legislative agents. The
agents and counsel shall do most of
their work before committees.
President Ripley asserts that the
railroads are still in their infancy.
The farmers claim ' that farming is
in its infancy. When these two
youngsters attain their growth there
will be something doing.
Utah is the first state to select a
woman to carry4 the electoral vote to
Washington, after helping by her bal
. lot to decide it. There has been in
Utah a wide departure from the views
of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young
on the status of American women.
If the parcel post should raise the
cost of living to the rural popula
tion by educating them to "buy in
dribs" it would show us what is at
least one of the causes of the high
Dangers of Flying Growing
Less and Less
By GLENN CURTISS, Aviator
Y course it would be folly,
tal and otherwise, that the newspapers print and reprint ev
ery time a noted aviator falls, to assert that there is no dan
ger in flying.
I doubt if the American man, especially the American young
man, would take to the aeroplane so enthusiastically if the sport were
as SAFE AS PAKLOR CROQUET. :
NEVERTHELESS THE DANGERS OF FLIGHT ARE GROWING
LESS AND LESS EVERY YEAR AS THE MACHINE IS IMPROVED
AND AS THE AVIATOR BECOMES MORE SKILLFUL AND MORE EX
PERIENCED IN AIR CONDITIONS.
The report of the French government for 1911 shows that there
has . been OM.Y ONE-TENTH AS MANY FATAL ACCI
DENTS in proportion to the number of flights made as in the first
year of aviation. .

CIVIC COMMITTEE
STARTS ACTIVE WORK
The Live Wires on Civic "Improve
ments held a meeting in the Commer
Club parlors Monday evening to make
plans for the " future work involving
an active campaign toward obtaining
improvements which will bring the
city a reputation for its health, clean
liness and beauty. The committee
believes that Oregon City's natural
! advantages are such that it can eas
ily be made the most attractive city
in the valley. Several sub-committees
were appointed to consider dif
ficult phases of the work and to re
port at future meetings. The commit
tee on city parks expects to cooper
ate with the Woman's Club in a pro
gressive movement for utilizing the
possibilities of further development
of the park system. The committee
invites suggestions on civic better
ment from organizations and individ
uals. BILL WOULD INJURE
SALEM, Feb. 10 (Special.) Sen
ate Bill No. 156, which might put a
crimp in the ultimate fate or the
Clackamas Southern and other local
constructed railroads will come up in
the Senate Tuesday on third reading
and final passage. The bill was in
troduced by Senator Smith, of Coos,
and received an unfavorable report
from the committee on railroads. The
bill and the report were both laid on
the table last Friday, but today a
minority report was submitted favor
ing the bill and it was adopted by "a
vote of 16 to 13, Dimick of Clacka
mas voting for the minority report.
While the bill is aimed to prevent
the absorption of the Home Telephone
Company by the Pacific Telephone &
Telegraph Company, it is far reach
ing and would prevent the sale of any
public utility, including railroads, to
a competing line. Inasmuch as it is
the practice of local capitalists to
construct railroads where the trans
continental systems have declined to
give service, and afterwards sell
these lines to the big companies for
operating, the bill would probably
prevent development in many sections
of the state. The bill carries an
emergency clause, and provides a
penalty of not less than $100 nor more
than $10,000 for violation of the act.

Sulphur Bottom Whales.
Probably the largest of the whales,
as well as the most gigantic of all liv
ing creatures, is the sulphur bottom.
It attains a length of nearly or quite
100 feet and a weight of 150 tons. One
individual measured 95 feet in length,
39 feet in girth, with a jawbone 21
feet long: baleen (whalebone). 4 feet
long; weight of baleen, 800 pounds;
weight of entire whale, 147 tons, and it
yielded Ulv barrels of oil. The sulphur
bottom seldom bolts, as the whalers
term the action of leaping diagonally
from the sea. or breaches, as perpen
dicular springs are called, but when it
does perfoim in this manner It pre
sents a truly wonderful sight.

Tells How She Was
Finally Relieved.
Goodwater, Mo. ''Ever since I was
a little girl," says Mrs. Riley Laramore,
"I was a great sufferer from dyspepsia.
I suffered misery after eating, and had
terrible heartburn.
I thought I had to suffer this way as
long as I lived, but when I began to take
Thedford's Black-Draught, in small
doses, every night, the heartburn was all
gone in a few days, and 1 could eat
without distress.
I took two small packages in all, and
although that was some time ago, the
dyspepsia has not returned.
I speak a good1 word for Thedford's
Black-Draught whenever 1 have the op
portunity." If eating causes distress, we urge you
to try Thedford's Black-Draught. It
cleanses the system, helps the stomach to
digest its food, regulates the bowels, and
stimulates the liver.
It acts gently and is without bad after
effects. Try it Price 25c.
