IX THE SENATE.
Rail Tray Men Remove All Doubt as
to Their Complete Control.
OLYMPIA, Jan. 2L (Staff correspond
ence.) If there has ever been any doubt
In the minds of antl-rallroad men In the
Legislature that their friends the enemy
were not In power In .the Senate, these
doubts were dispelled this morning, when
the friends of the railroads put the Graves
free pass bill into the painless sleep of
death by taking it out of the hands of
the Judiciary committee and referring It
to the railroad committee. The Judiciary
committee had reported favorably on the
hill, but before a motion to adopt was
made. Baker of Klickitat moved that It
bo referred to the railroad committee.
Tolman demanded a rollcalL and Baker's
motion carried, by the following vote:
Ayes Baker, Baumelster, Clapp, Corn
wall, Davis, Earles, Hailey. Hamilton,
Hemrlch, Hurley. Klnnear, LeCrone,
O'Donnell, Palmer, Potts, Rands, Ruth,
Smith of Snohomish, Stanzell, Stewart,
Sumner, Tucker, Vandevanter, Welch,
Wilson, Mr. President 26.
Noes Crow, Garber, Graves, Hallett,
Hammer, McKenney, Moore, Moultray,
Rasher, Reser, Sharp, Splawn, Tolman,
Warburton, Welch 15.
There Is of course a chance that it may
he reported favorably, but the friends of
the bill think that it is at rest for the
session, for if it comes up again it will
be amended out of its present shape.
The judiciary committee reported fa
vorably on a bill to give King County a
fifth Superior Judge.

FOR STATE LAND AGENT.
Governor Chamberlain Names J. W.
Morrow, of Heppner.
SALEM. Or., Jan. 21. Governor Cham
berlain today appointed J. W. Morrow, of
Meppner, .Morrow County, to succeed L,
is. Geer, as State Land Agent The ap
pointment will take effect April 1. Mor
row served four terms as Clerk of Morrow
County, and one term as State Senator
from that county. He has been emi
nently successful In business.
The appointment of J. W. Morrow as
State Land Agent Is taken by all Demo
crats as an Indication that the Superin-
tendency or the Penitentiary will be
given to a Marlon County man. Eastern
Oregon has now been represented by one
of the best appointments at the Govern-'
ors disposal. There are two candidates
here for the superlntendency. They are
w. a. Downing and F. W. Durbln. Down
Irtg bases his claim upon his having led
the Democratic campaign In Marion
County last June. He has the Indorse
ment of 34 out of 3S county central com'
mitteemen in this county. Durbln Is be
Ing urged as the logical man for the place
In view of his two terms of successful
service as Sheriff of Marlon County. He
has the Indorsement of prominent Demo
crats all over the state.
Opinion here Is about evenly divided as
to which of the candidates will win If
the appointment comes to Marion Coun
ty. The men who are closest to Governor
Chamberlain say they think he Is Inclined
to look with most favor upon Durbln, yet
they all admit that the Governor has made
no declaration of his views. Governor
Chamberlain has been besieged by friends
of various candidates ever since he came
to Salem, and in fact ever since his elec
tion.
The appointment of a State Land Agent
at this time came as a surprise, and prob
ably Indicates that the Governor Intends
to make all the appointments soon and
thus relieve himself of considerable
trouble.
So far as can be judged from the com
ment made by Democrats around the
Capitol today, the appointment of Mor
row as State Land Agent is entirely sat
isfactory- No one Is heard to offer
criticism, while on every hand commend
ations are heard.
A highly creditable administration of
lieu land business Is predicted during Mor
row's Incumbency. ,

lURKE HISSED DOWN
Wild Scenes at Preston
Meeting in Seattle.
UDGE WAS FOR ANKENY
Crowd Wanted to Pass Resolutions
for Preston, and Fairly Stamped
ed "When Burke Attempted
to Interfere.
SEATTLE, Jan. 21. (Special.) Judge
Thomas Burke went over the footlights
at the Seattle theater tonight to urge a
mass meeting of citizens not to Indorse,
even In a lefthanded way, the Railroad
Commission bllL Judge Burke was not
on the programme, and the people who
rganlzed the mass meeting didn't want
him to speak, and the people who filled
the parquet, boxes and balcony didn't
expect him. But Judge Burke -was primed,
though nobody suspected It, perhaps not
even the Judge himself, until there came
a slight pause In the proceedings that
were moving along In a spirit of unan
imity toward the adoption of resolutions
urging the King County legislators to do
anything and everything to secure the
election of Harold Preston to the Senate.
Several of the speakers had warmly com
mended the Railroad Commission bill as
worthy of support on Its own merits, as
the fulfillment of a pledge made In the
Republican state platform and as a means
to gain the end of electing a King County-
Senator.
Sam Crawford was about to present the
resolutions. Then m a pause the name
of "Burke" rang through the house. It
was taken up and repeated from all parts
amid an outburst of applause, cut, as It
seemed. In two sections by a sharp whlsh
of hisses. Indication of opposition
brought Burke to his feet He had been
seated In the body of the house, down
near the stage. All of a sudden he was
heard above the turmoil.
"This Is a public meeting," he shouted.
'My name has been called and I demand
a right to be beard."
A hundred voices were raised in pro
test Chairman Craven and a dozen
others on the stage advanced to the foot
lights, all talking at once and apparently
demanding that the audience refuse to
hear Judge Burke.
What thev -were savlntr no one could
hear, and no one appeared to care, 'for all
eyes were following the. movements of
the doughty Judge, who, In a trice, had
mounted the orchestra railing, sprawled
over the electric lights and was charging
up and down the front of the stage, -wav
ing both arms and evidently screaming.
though he qould not be heard. When the
crowd had fully grasped the achievement
of Judge Burke, a roar of approval vent
up, shouts and handclapplng. In sheer ad
miration for his courage and pugnacity.
In the next moment came a realization
of what he probably wanted to talk about.
and then the roar was of disapproval.
The organizers of the meeting and those
Invited to seats upon the stage were In
utmost confusion. While the uproar still
went on, two or three of the leaders con
ferred with Chairman" Craven. Then the
chairman said something quietly to Judge
Burke. The audience felt a change of
sentiment In the air and became compara
tively quiet
Judge Burke was Introduced as counsel
for the Great Northern Railroad. He
took a drink of water, shook out kinks
caused by his none-too-dlgnlfied scramble
for the stage, drew himself to full height
and began his oratorical onslaught The
crowd was plainly against Judge Burke.
A running fire of Interruption, and even
Insult, pattered along through his fervid
talk. But on the whole, he was receiving
a more respectful hearing than he need
have expected from the manner of his re
ception until he struck the note that rang
the death-knell of whatever hope he had
of Influencing the meeting.
"I have been astounded and grieved." he
shouted, "to hear .from this platform such
aspersions as have been cast on that hon
orable gentleman, Levi Ankeny." And
that was allttfor Judge Burke. He had
pressed the fatal button and the crowd did
the rest One yell of derision was fol
lowed by another. The audience, almost
to a man, was on foot, hooting, shouting
and ridiculing. No speaker ever heard in
Seattle evoked such a demonstration.
Thus they kept it up. Judge Burke, was
still talking, but no word of It reached the
ear of another. The organizers of the
meeting saw that the Judge had made the
kind of a hit they liked, and wanted him
to try It again. Chairman Craven endeav
ored to still the tumult and bade the
game go on, but the crowd would have
no more. After one more effort Judge
Burke hastily quitted the scene. f When
Sam Crawford again came forward and
this time read the resolutions, they went
through with a whirl.

THE EXPERIENCE OF A DRUG-
GIST IN SAMS VALLEY.
He Telia a Reporter the Simple Way
in Which He Overcame tke
Difficulty.
I have had a great many experi
ences," said Mr Albert L. Gall, a drug
gist of Sams Valley, Or., "but the rec
ollection, of one of them outshines them,
all."
"What was that?" ventured a re
porter.
"Well, when I was a .little fellow.
about 12 or 13 years old, I began to be
afflicted with an eruption of the skin
something' like diminutive boils. I think
the cause wao a hereditary Impurity of
the blood. I was treated by several of
the best physicians, but they did not
help me any. I kept growing worse,
and the eruptions became so numerous
that it was a misery to wear clothes.
After a while my kidneys became, af
fected.
"Your skin looks clear now," said the
reporter.
"Yes, the trouble was all cured years
ago. How? By Dr. "Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People. I had heard of
what these pills had accomplished in
diseases of the blood, and. decided, to try
them. Relief came as soon as could be
expected, and I continued taking them
until all trace of the disease had van
ished. That was seven years ago, and i
have had no return of the trouble
since."
Dn "Williams' Pink Pllle for Pale Peo
ple cure cases like this because they go
to the root of the dlseas?. Other reme
dies act on the symptoms these mar
velous vegetable pills remove the cause
of the trouble. Not only have they
cured hundreds of cases similar to Mr.
Gall's, but they have proven themselves
to be an unfailing specific for all dis
eases arising from impure or impover
ished blood and weakened nerves two
fruitful causes of nearly all the ills to
which humankind is heir. They are an
unfailing specific for locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sci
atica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, after-effects of the grip, pal
pitation of the "heart, pale and sallow
