SALEM, Or.. Fob. 13.-Stafr correspond

brought 17 .votes lor United States Sena
tor from Multnomah County for Mayor
George IL Williams, of Portland, and no
bad luck ,of any kind to any of the sev
eral candidates. Judge Williams his been
offered so many bouquets of Just this
same style of beauty .and fragrance dur
ing the last five or s!x sessions of the
Oregon Legislature that he Is not likely
now to hustle around to see where he
can get the necessary votes to make Up
the required 45. It Is nevertheless a great
compliment to him thn the Influence of
his name was sufficient to bring the Mult
nomah delegation nearer together than It
has been at any time during the present
weary and uneventful season of Sena'
torial balloting. There are 13 Republican
members from Multnomah, and if 17 cin
In these last days of the long struggle
unite In one harmonious plan. It would
appear to follow that the effort to get all
of them to take the same view on any
subject is not hopeless.
The end of the fourth week of the Scn
atprial fight has brought into clearer per
spective the view of Its probable outcome
that his been emphasized in this corre
spondence from the beginning. Mr. Ful
ton will be elected United States Senator
If he gets any considerable part of Mult
nomah County. He will probably not be
elected it may be said that he will cer
tainly not be elected If the delegation
from Multnomah holds out against him to
the last. That it has stood so firmly
against him up to this time has been a
source of surprise and chagrin to the
friends of Mr. Fulton, who were aware
that there are members of the delegation
who have a high personal regard for the
Astoria Senator, and who have manifest
ed a -willingness to voto for him If the
conditions are auspicious. Up to this time
It his not been upparent to any Multno
mah man Just In what manner he could
satisfy his constituents that It is the
proper thing for him to go to Mr. Fulton;
and It Is not apparent to anybody that
the sentiment In Portland that some
other should be chosen will weaken as
time goes on.
It may be expected that next week will
-witness a great effort to unite the opposi
tion to Mr. Fulton in some common plin.
It Is considered by leaders of these forces
that some feasible scheme of union may
be adopted and carried out. If so, a very
lively week may be looked forward to.

SEVEXTEEX FOR JUDGE WILLIAMS.
"Multnomah Delegation Casts Xearly
a. Solid Vote.
SALEM. Or.. Feb. 13. (Special.) Hon.
George H. Williams, of Portland, today
received 17 of the 13 Republican votes from
Multnomah County for United States Sen
ator. The attention of the lobby and the
members In Joint convention was diverted
by a epeech from Hume defining his posi
tion on the Senatorshlp. He said:
I believe the time has come to define my po
sition on the Senatorial question. It 1 not
from egotism or self-conceit or self-seeking am
bition that I occupy my present position, but
with an earnest desire that this state may be
ably represented in the councils of the Nation.
Made in Oregon and of a quality not surpassed
anywhere can be said of the young men whose
names I have submitted for your consideration.
The JUte of Oregon has appropriated fSOO.OOO
to exhibit her products. In these men you hare
a product that costs the state nothing, which
will be a lasting credit to the state. The peo
ple of the state have selected us as the repre
sentative men of each section. If they have
not done so. it is their own fault. I believe
they have made no mistake, and I am proud to
be associated. with this body of gentlemen who
have ehown so much capacity. While I believe
that w should send these young men to repre
sent us, yet I have so far been unable to
awaken a responsive echo In the minds of my
fellow-members In this Legislature. While I
may not be suited In the choice of a Senator to
represent this state, still I am here to do my
duly, and whenever any gentleman has re
ceived sufficient votes added to mine that will
make him Senator I shall give him my support.
I vote for Mr. Dan. J. Ualarkey.'

DEMOCRATS CHANGE TONE
LABOR BUREAU BILL RECONSID
ERED AND PASSED.
Did Not Like Politics In It, bnt Stand
for It, An liovr Now Up
to Senate.
SALEM. Or., Feb. 13. (Staff correspond
ence.) The House this morning passed
the bill for a Labor Commissioner., Demo
crats swung back Into, line and only one
of their eleven voted'"no." Last Wednes
day only two of them favored the bllL
All Republicans except two went on
record for tho measure. The vote was
43 to 3.
Phelps of Morrow, Republican, who
voted "no" last Wednesday, moved for
reconsideration . when tho House opened
this morning. The question of passage
was thus reopened, but there was little
debate. The only speech against the
measure was that pf Hume. Bailey, who
has been the nctlvo champion of the
measure, succinctly explained Its put-
poses and provisions. Flbher advocated
passage, saying that the act would re
move friction between capital and labor
and would promote harmony. Burleigh,
Bllyeu and Galloway, stalwart Demo
crats, who took shots at the bill Wednes
day, supported It.
This labor bureau." said Bailey, "will
facilitate acquisition of information as
to the relations of capital and labor.
Thirty states of tho Union have bureaus
of this kind. They are called labor bu
reaus, but the fact is. that they are Just
as much capital bureaus. They assist
greatly in removing strife between labor
and capital by keeping the pqbllc closely
Informed about the conditions of employ
ment. This office of commissioner will'
cost a taxpayer who is assessed at, say
31000. about 2 cents a year. It will save
a large amount of wealth that is wasted
by discord between labor and capital. In
this way It will be highly valuable to the
state and one of the very best Investments
that Oregon could make. Let Orecon
throw off Its moss and get to the front."
'I don t agree." remarked Hume, "with
the Multnomah gentleman that as labor
bureaus are established strikes become
fewer. The history of strikes does not
bear out the gentleman. I shall bow to
the will of the majority of this House,
but yet I shall vote against this bllL"
This bureau," declared Fisher, "is
wanted and needed. The causes of many
troubles between labor and capital could
be reduced by an official clothed with
state authority. Last year we had a
strike in Portland which affected the
business of the city. Had there then been
a commissioner like the one proposed that
strike could have been settled In short
order."
Burleigh asserted that the measure
should be enacted. "Certain provisions
in the bill," said he, "caused me to vote
against it the other day. Now I feel the
measure should pass. It Is too Important
to De defeated Dy the petty nolltles that
have been Injected Into It. Capital gets
me legislation it wants and unless labor
has that opportunity It docs not have
equal chance to hold Its own. I propose
to overlook the political Insult and Job
bery this bill contains and to vote 'aye.' "
uuyeu insisted that Democrats could
not truthfully be charged with responsi
bility for defeat of the bill last Wednes
day. The partisanship of Republicans
was to blame. Democrats were deprived
ot tney ngntiui recognition, "bound down
hand and foot." "The other- day I op
posed the bill because It smacked of party
politics. Gentlemen of tho majority. I
ask you to divest this bill of politics.
liefer it to the clerk and let him strike
out the politics. If you refuse to take this
bill out of polltlc-well, I'll voto for It
anypow."
Galloway sounded the same Democratic
note. "I voted against this bill." he ex
plained, "because of the personal Job
bery In It. While I don't approve the
animus that distinguishes this bill, today
I shall vote "aye. " t
The bill then passed. Cantrell, Emmlt
and Hume voted no.

BILL TO TAX MINES.
Measure Pauses Idaho House After
Short Debate.
BOISE. Idaho, Feb. 13. (Speclal.)-H. B.
4. Jenkins, for the taxation of tho output
of mines, was passed by the Senate today.
When It came up Brlgham took the floor
and argued against the bill In behalf of
tho farmers of the state. Hn safd that It
was "always the ease that the great cor
porations do everything possible to secure
legislation to exempt them from taxa
tion." He thought It was not right to ex
empt any special property from taxation.
If It could be done, he would favor ex
empting a percentage of all property. Ho
called attention to the provisions of the
constitution and thought that the prop
erty could not be legally exempted. He
said the combinations of capital working
mines In tho state should stand their
share of the burden of taxation.
O'Neill replied briefly, saying In part:
"We aro taxing the mineral extracted
from the ground, besides the Improve
ments." Dolman argued that the mines all
worked on hope. He thought to tax the
net profits of mines would encourage
the location and patenting of claims and
that "moro money will be taken out of
the ground and spent for the bcnoflt of
the state.
"Let tho miners live and mako markets
for the farmers." he added.
The bill was then passed by tho follow
ing vote:
Ayes Allen. Baker, Ballantlne. Clark.
Crum. Day. Dolman. Rekcrt. Heath, Kle
fer. O'Neill, Stevenson 12.
Nays Brlgham. Caton. Evans. Newell.

CONVICTS TO WORK ON ROADS.
But Marlon County Mnnt Sni'ply Ma
terials and Tools.
SALEM. Or.. Feb. li-(Spec!aI.) The
House today passed Senator Hobson's
bill to amend the law for employment of
convlce labor on roads. That law was 'en
acted In 1S39 and appropriated 12300 to
carry out the provisions of the act, 11750
of which was expended. The bill was
amended In committee of the whole today
to require Marion County to supply ma
terials and tools for the road work of
convicts. This amendment was proposed,
by Cornett. Orton offered an amendment
to dispense with "competent roadbullders
to superintend nnd direct" such road
work for a salary -of JGO per month. Or
ton thought that this provision would
entail needless, expense and that country
road supervisors should direct the work.
Marlon County members vigorously op
posed the amendment- Kay. Davey and
Judd worked together for about tho first
time this session nnd Eddy facetiously ex
claimed: "This raust'be a good bill. It has pro
duced a spirit of brotherly love among
members ot the Marlon County delega
tion." The amendment was adopted and then
rejected. A third amendment, offered by
-Miles, to reduce the appropriation from
J2500 to ,1000 was rejected.
LOBBYIST
STEIWER BILL WILL PASS
FROUABLE REAPPORTIONMENT FOR
EASTERN OREGON.
House Takes Stand Against Wasco
County Members, Who Op
pose Any Change.
SALEM. Or.. Feb. IS. (Staff corres
pendence.) The Eastern' Oregon House
members got Into a lively Jangle among
themselves today over the proposed re
arrangement of the "shoestring" represen
tative and legislative districts. It all
came up over the report of the committee,
on Irrigation, to which the Stelwer re
apportionment bill (S. B. 120) had been
re-referred. Representatives Burgess,
Whealdon and Judd submitted a majority
report against the bill; but Representa
tives Emrnltt and Glnn got together In a
minority report for IU Burgess and. Wheal
don are from Wasco County; Emrnltt
from Klamath and Gunn from Sherman.
Kay Is the only member not from the af
fected territory.
When the report was submitted Emrnltt
called attention to the split In Eastern
Oregon on the subject and moved that
the minority report bo substituted for
the majority.
"Three out of five members of the
committee have Joined In the majority re
port." replied Whealdon. "The members
from the ground should be at least Judges
of the situation."
"I call the attention of the House." Bald
Phelps, "to the fact that two members of
this committee from (Wasco County and
one from Marlon County have macfe the
majority report. The two members who
protest are from tho so-called gerry
mandered districts outside of Wasco."
"I am the one member of the commit
tee who Is not concerned In this mat
ter," put in Judd. "It seems to me to
he a bad thing that the Legislature
should attempt to change these districts
every time It meets. Every time some one
wants to be elected from Eastern Oregon
he tries to turn thlsapportlontnent topsy
turvy. It does no good to the state."
"This Is the bill the Governor calls at
tention to In his message." rejoined Em
mitt. "I call attention to the fact thai
Wasco Is Joined onto a string of four
counties that goes clear to the California
line on the south, and to three counties
that go to Idaho on the cast. The mem
bers of these districts out of Wasco want
to be cut loose. The members from Was
co don't want them to cut loose."
Representative Robblns thought that
there ought to be a general apportionment.
He said that Baker County, with 20.000
population and 10CO votes, has only one
Representative and one Joint Senator with
other counties. "We might as well leave
It as It until the members of the Legis
lature can unite on a Just measure," he
said.
"Four out of the six members from the
two legislative districts concerned want
no change," said Burgess.
Kay said every part of the state ought
to have equal representation and then
Whealdon -mildly suggested that Wasco
once owned all the territory affected. "We
simply want to keep In speaking rela
tion to It," he said. "I move to re-refer
to the members from Eastern Oregon
without reference to politics," he added.
"This Is a kind of a Joke to get the
bill back In committee so t can never bo
reported on." cried Emrnltt. "I object."
Whealdon's motion was lost and the
minority report adopted on viva voce vot
It looks as If Stelwer"s bill will pass. It
places Wasco In one Senatorial district
and Sherman. Gilliam and Wheeler In an
other. It puts Wasco In one Represen
tative district (with two members) 'and
Sherman. Gilliam and Wheeler in another
with two Representatives, and Klamath
Lake. Crook and Grant In a- third with
two Representatives.
The House this morning postponed In
definitely two Senate bills. One was to
compel persons driving cattle through
other counties than that where the brand
Is recorded, to put a "hair brand" on said
cattle, to bo known as "road brand."
This bill was Introduced by Smith of
Utnatllla. The other bill was to amend
the present law as to establishment of
tax for city libraries.
Senator McGinn's bill (S. B. 132), to pro
vide a great seal for the state, was re
ferred in the House today to a special
committee. Reed, Davey nnd Galloway.
Tho state seal now used rests not on law
tut on custom. It Is not likely that the
hill as It now stands will pass the House.
The measure will probably be' amended so
as to continue the use of tho present seal
with minor changes. Reed has been
working actively for the bill in the House.
When It came up for passage this morn
ing It was under disadvantage because It
had not been printed, and the members
had- not Investigated the subject. The
bill would undoubtedly have' been voted
down, and Reed had It referred to a spe
cial committee.
A bill to add a small part of Douglas
County to Lane passed the Houve this
morning. It has already gone through the
Senate, where It was Introduced by Kuy
kendall. The area to be added" to Lane
is the northwest corner of Douglas, and
Is about six miles long by three or four
wide, south of the Siuslaw River. The
residents of the district petitioned for
annexation to Lane. Florence and Eu
gene are more accessible to them than
are Gnrdlner and Roseburjr.
The town of Bourne. In Eastern Oregon,
will probably not have a new Incorpora
tion act. The House committee on cities
and towns today reported adversely on
S. B. 106 (Rand). Chairman Hudson said
that there Is a considerable protest against
making tho present boundaries of the
town, and besides the now measure was
opposed on the ground that it contem
plates a change In the present method of
granting liquor licenses, which is said to
be satisfactory
The House today passed Senator Hob
eion'3 bill (S. B. 51). providing for trans
fer of Insane convicts to the asylum. The
hill authorizes the Governor to make such
transfer whenever a convict In the peni
tentiary has been found to be insane by
the physicians of the penitentiary and the
asylum.
The amended Senate bill relative to mu
tual Insurance companies, reported favor
ably .today by the House committee on
banking and Insurance, reads as follows:
Section 1. That section 3740 of the laws of
the State of Oregon, as complied and annotated
by Charles B. lielltnger and William V. Cot
ton, be and the same Is hereby amended so as
to read as follows:
Sec. 3710. No mutual Insurance company
hereafter organized shall transact any business
until It has received subscriptions for Insurance
In the sum of $300,000: divided among at least
300 subscribers, and the subscribers for such
Insurance must be residents of this state, and
the property to be Insured must be located In
Oregon. A mutual Insurance company here
after organised or Incorporated In the State of
Oregon shall not transact any Insurance busi
ness without this state, unless It has within
this state at least 4000 members and $1,000,000
of Insurance. The amount of the Insurance to
be written or taken upon any one Insurable
risk shall be limited to the sum of S1P09. upon
the subscriptions for Insurance aggregating
$300,000. and the amount ot such Insurance
may be Increased to I20UO for any one risk
when the subscriptions for Insurance amount to
(500,000, and for every additional amount of
(500.000 of Insurance subscriptions the amount
ot Insurance upon any one risk may be In
creased In another sum ot 31000. All mutual
Insurance companies or corporations now doing
business in this state shall be entitled to all
benefits conferred by this act.
Tho Senate did not approve of tho ac
tion of the House In trying to repeal
the law giving a tax rebate to owners
of wlde-tlre wagons Senator Kuykendall
expressed the opinion that the law Is a
good one and should bo retained.
"My experience as a farmer has led me
to the same conclusion, and I will op
pose the repeal," said Sweek of Mult
nomah. 'The wlde-tlre law was enacted at the

Hiss Georglana J. Jlossey. of No. 123
lake street, St. Albans, Vt. la a bright,
healthy young woman and from her ap
pearance one would never think she had
ever been sick for a day in her life. But
there wca a time, a few years ago, when
she wan very low, .hen physicians
treated her without avail and hope for
recoverj" was, almost gone. But she was
cured by Dr. -Williams Pink Pills and
her story is worth reading.
"Overwork." she says, "was the causo
of my illness. My system became all
run down generally, my blood was poor
nnd the doctors said I had anaemia. My
appetite failed me. I became pale and
sickly, with no color at all in my face. I
had dizzy spells and severe headaches.
My illness affected my Ilrabs and I could
not walk any distance without becoming
very much fatigued and short of breath.
"I suffered for two years and twlca
was conilned to my bed. I doctored with
an able local physician for a year and
received no benefit. Then I went to
Montreal and took treatment from a phy
sician there but he did me no good and
I began to fear I would never get well.
"While in Montreal, a friend of mine
who had a niece who had been greatly
benefited by Dr. Williams- Pink Pills for
Palo People, advised me to try that medi
cine. I began taking them and soon saw
a change for the better. I noticed that
my Hps and ears were beginning to look
red and the pallor was fading away. My
cheeks began to AH out and my appetite
returned. My friends noticed the change
at once and asked me who was my doctor
novA I told them that Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People were doing all this.
"Altogether I took twelve boxes and
by that tlma I was a strong and healthy
girl again.
"When I went to the store here to buy
a supply of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People." Miss Mossey said, "tha
clerk told me I could buy them cheaper
In bulk than In the package. But I re
membered I had read a warning that tho
genuine pills were never sold In bulk and
so I Insisted upon being given tho pack
age with the wrapper on It bearing tha
full name Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People and I got them."
