BARBER LAW !S VOID
Judge George Says Board Had
Too Much Power.
IT CANNOT .BE DELEGATED
Briggs, of the Barber School, Wins
His Suit-Law Should Specify
Qualifications, Not Leave It
to an Examining Board.
The members of the State Board of Bar
ber Examiners might as well be so many
ambassadors to Islands In the Dead Sea
for all the power the office gives them.
Judge George ruled yesterday that the
board Is unconstitutionally on earth.
This, the court holds. Is because the act
of the Ieglslature creating the body al
lows them to fix the standard to which
all applicants for tonsorlal honors must
attain. By doing this. Judge George be
lieves the Legislature delegated the exam
iners with legislative authority, which, he
avers, is a very unconstitutional thing to
do.
All this tends to throw the three mem
bers of the board out of an official job.
They are: J. C. Vvels. Frank T. Rogers
and H. G. Myer, the latter of Salem.
Messrs. "Wels and Rogers say they barely
agree with the court, and will most prob
ably carry the case to the Supreme Court,
in order to get that body's Interpretation
of the law.
They say that the ruling of Judge
George, If It stands, will be a blow to the
barbers of the city.
"It will allow unsophisticated country
youths to attend some pretentious barber
school for a few days, and then go forth
Into the world with the false idea that
they are qualified as barbers," said Mr.
Rogers. "They will be unable to get work
in any decent shop, and will then proceed
to start some little dump of their own.
cutting the regular scale of prices in order
to attract trade. There are many uungs
reaulred of a barber, and it is contrary to
the ideas of public safety to turn a lot of
unskilled apprentices loose upon tne.puo
11c." The Ideas of Mr. "Wels In this connection
are much the same. "We will appeal if
we have any appeal coming," he said.
In passing upon the case. Judge George
sets out that the enactment in question
nt nrovide what shall be the
reoulslte capacity of a person to follow
the vocation of bartering, but leaves it
entirely to the board. Nor has the act.
the court further holds, the requirements
nrescribed in the laws of other states, as.
for Instance, In Washington and Minne
sota, where they are sustained. There the
law nrovldes tor the age of the person,
moral character, freedom from Infectious
diseases, study and practice at the trade.
or possession of skill in the use -of tools
and the preparation of same for use, ster
ilization of tools, the knowledge of com
mon diseases transmlttabie by contagion
or infection, as to how to avoid spreading
diseases and other Qualifications, bome
qualifications looking to the protection of
public health at least, it is stated, should
be required by the act, and not everything
left to the notions or Ideas of a ooara.
Law Should Provide Qualifications
The decision was rendered in the case
of the State of Oregon against H. L.
Briggs. For some time past Briggs has
been conducting a barber school in Port
land, and he was charged with operating
the place contrary to the state law and
without a license from the State Board
of Examiners.
Judge George decides that the barbers
nr confers arbitrary Dowers upon the
hoard, and is not only amenable to this
charge, but also that the Legislature has
either not declared the requirements for
Qualifications of barbers, but has at
tempted to delegate to a board the exer
cise of a legislative prerogative to nx me
same, which prerogative -is vested solely
in the Legislature. Discussing the ques
tion, the court says
The vice of the act. it would seem, is that
It prescribes no general requirements or regu
lations governing a set of barber oincmis,
but undertakes to confer upon them purely
arbitrary power to Interfere with the rights of
a cltlren to pursue a lawful occupation.
Power Can't Be Delegated.
Tender the police power of the state there
can be no question as to the authority of the
Legislature to prescribe qualifications for the
following of any profession, trade or occupa
tion, affecting the public health; and the Leg
islature can constitute Inferior tribunals to
examine and determine the fact whether ap
plicants actually possess these qualifications.
but the Legislature cannot delegate power to
a board, or to anybody else, to enact the law
itself nrescrlblng the qualifications. That must
be done by the Legislature alone.
Referring to the medical and other slmi
lar statutes. Judge George says:
Medicine, surgery and dentistry, being re
carded as learned professions, are governed by
general laws which have been upheld by the
courts. In the medical law the board was to
be appointed by the Governor from among the
most competent physicians of at least five
years practical experience. Examinations
were to be in anatomy, physiology, surgery
obstetrics, thorapeutics. practice of medicine,
chemistry, materia medics, diseases of women.
medical Jurisprudence. Knowledge and skill
the state law fixed as the standard for the
practice of medicine and surgery, and the
medical board was the tribunal to ascertain
and determine If the applicant measured up
to the standard fixed by the state for practice,
and the courts have sustained the standard so
fixed as a reasonable one for that profession.
Too Much Power Given Board.
Referring again to the barber act. the
court says further:
The barbers' law. however, is scant of any
requisite prescribed by the Legislature. It not
only falls to proscribe any test, but attempts
to delegate this whole matter to a board of
three barbers. Instead of fixing at least ewnc
thine itself. Nowhere la the act does It pre
t tribe any qualifications for proper capacity
for a barber, but Instead. In section 2. It says
"The board shall prescribe the qualification
of a barber In this state." This power, to my
mind, must be exercised by the state and ap
pear in the act, and cannot be delegated. The
Legislature ought, itself, to nx some reason
able qualifications, and a board be merely
tribunal to pass upon the fact as to whether
the applicant possesses what the Legislature
holds Is essential to the practice of bartering.
The aot says the board shall proceed to ex
amine the applicant, but what In. or to what
extent, is not prescribed, and. being satisfied
tin Its own mind) as to his qualification, shall
Issue a certificate allowing him to work.
Unless & barber has a certificate, be cannot
follow his existing occupation, and will be sub
ject to fine and Imprisonment If he does. This
Is a very arbitrary power to confer on three
men of that or any other trade or profession
the opportunity for arbitrary powe,t say that
any other barber can or cannot work at his
trade, unless these three men are satisfied that
he possewe such qualifications as these gentle
men comporfBS the board may prescribe at
their own pleasure.
Ouract does not even lay down the Qualifi
cation ef knowledge of barberlng, er eves ex
perience in Barbertnjt. It prescribes absolute.
J j- no qualification as deemed by the Legisla
ture to be essential and sufficient, but, on the
contrary, leaves, delegates, as It were, all to
the pleasure ef a selected few barbers to shut
cut the many barbers tlf It 1 please the few)
from laboring at a lawful, useful and largely
mechanical occupation.
A law which in Itself undertakes to inreet In
any beard or body of officials a discretion
which is so purely arbitrary, and which may.
on the face of the law. be exeroleed In the in
terests of those the bord msy see fit in their
own pleasure to favor, strongly seems to my
mind to be invalid.
Suit to Escheat Lots.
The State of Oregon, by District At
torney John Manning-, and U. S. G. Mar-
quam, special counsel by leave and dl-;j
rection of Governor Chamberlain, yes-1
terday filed suit in the State Circuit Court
against P. H. Marley and all heirs to a.
Robinson, deceased, to escheat lots 3,
and 6, Multnomah Berry Ranch, con
taining UVt acres to the state. The com
plaint recites that Robinson died Intestate
in Massachusetts in October, 1KB, leaving
this nrooertv and other lots covered By a
mortgage of $2300, and that no administra
tor has been appointed of tne estate in
Multnomah County. Marlay. who does
business in Portland by E a oble, his
agent has a tax title to the property.
ROBBED HIS COMPANIONS.
Lapoleon Convicted of Stealing $150
From Partner in Spree.
Frank Lapoleon. a dlswasher, was tried
and convicted in Judge Sear's Court yes
terday of stealing 5150 from George ii
Hawley on December 13, 1503. The evi
dence showed that Hawley and a friend
came to the city from Gresham, and
made the acquaintance of Lapoleon, who
was employed In a restaurant at Fourth
and Couch streets. The three went out to
see the elephant and Hawley and Clark
drank considerable. They took Lapoleon
to their room and, when the awoke in
the morning, Lapoleon and - Hawley's
money, $150, had disappeared.
The prisoner denied the charge, out-
failed to convipce the jury that he told
the truth.
Trying Claim to $15,000 for an Arm.
The trial of the suit of William Tlnk-
man against Inman, Poulsen & Co. for
$15,000 damages for the loss of his right
arm was begun before Judge Frazer yes
terday. TInkman Is a minor, 16 years old.
and Is represented by his mother, Lena
Knoll, as guardian. The boy was working
at a planer several months ago, and his
arm was caught In the machine, and In
jured so badly that amputation was neces
sary. In the complaint it Is charged that
Inman, Poulsen & Co. were wilfully negli
gent in putting TInkman to work at the
planer,..when he was wholly inexperienced
and not informed of his danger. The day
was almost consumed by counsel In se
lecting a Jury and the members of the
body were taken over to the mill late In
the afternoon to view the machinery.
Judge O'Day and Charles J. Schnable
appear as attorneys for the plaintiff, and

A committee from the City Federation
of Women' Clubs, headed by Mary A.
Ogden. Alphia L. Dlmmlck and Millie R.
Trumbull, presented a request that three
scholhouses be tised by them for three
nights each for free lectures to the par
ents of attending children. Drs T. L.
Eliot, Dr. Woods Hutchinson and the
Camera Club have promised to aid these
lectures, according to the petition. As
the law states that the schoolhouses
may be used only when the directors are
authorized by a majority of the taxpay
ers in a regular or special meeting to
allow it, the matter was referred to the
committee on examination of teachers.'
Governor Chamberlain will be asked to
deliver the address to the February
graduating class of the High School.
