Overwhelming Vote in House Against Railroad Measure. SALEM. Or.. Feb. 13. (Special.) By a vote of 35 to 15, with ten absent, the House this afternoon slew the Railroad Commission bill of Smith of Josephine. Three Circuit Judges of Multnomah county were named as composing the prospective commission. Smith earnestly pleaded against the In definite postponement recommended by the House committee on railroads and transportation. "This bill might as well be entitled A Dill to protect the peoplo against Standard Oil,' for we have read how the Standard Oil has acquired the" Santa Fc system." cried Smith. He de clared that the commission would have the power to make equitable rates. Sonneman of Douglas, chairman of the railroads committee, said the bill was too far reaching, and that he did not believe the people of the state wished such a commission. Kay of Marlon declared that previous similar commissions had been failures, shippers finding neither railroad nor com mission willing to stand responsible for the rates. "An unexpected champion of the bill was Griffin of Lane. He denied Kay's and Sonnemann's statements that there was no call for such a commission. He quoted ratesJon wagons and nails, show ing that the rate from Portland to Wll lamotte Valley points was many times in excess of the rate per mile from the, East to Portland. Mulr of Multnomah tho'ught the commission would mean oppression to shippers Instead of relief. Tho 15 members who voted against in definite postponement and therefore for the subsequent passage of the bill were: Bingham. Blakley, Bramhall, Burns of Clatsop. Burns of Coos. Caldwell, Caven der. Dobbin. Flint. Grlffln. Jagger, Ku ney, Laws, Smith of Josephine. A bill to exempt mining companies from thp organization tax of the Eddy corpora tion law was voted down In the House today. Representative Smith, of Baker, who introduced the measure, spoke in its defence, and was opposed by rUnthlcum and Kay. Bingham's bill exempting min ing companies -whose annual product is 1P5S than $1000 from tho annual license fq.e has passed the House, and is in the Senate, but Smith contended .that it would not relieve mining companies of the bur dens of the Eddy tax. Against Smith's bill 42 votes wore re corded. Llnthicum contended that Smith's Wll would open the way for many cor porations to evade paying the tax, and Kay pointed out that, as the House has passed a bill appropriating $1S,000 for a mining- bureau, mining corporations should not escape the tax. A tax of 1 per cent on the gross earn ings within Ihe state of express, tolephono and telegraph companies is to be paid to the state as a special tax. according to the bill of Sonnemann of Douglas, which passed the House tonight. Companies whoso gross earnings are lef.3 than $10,000 yearly are exempt. This tax is to be Paid at the same' time as other taxes. Managers- of the taxed companies are to make affidavits of earnings, and are liable to fines for false statements. To suspend the State Fair this year, and use the 510,000 appropriated therefor by law on Improvements at the fair grounds, a bill of Representative Xewell's passed the House today. The bill oUp that there is no need of holding tho fair during the Lewis and Clark Exposition. Kay 'spoke for MarJon Interests in opposition to the bill. Settleraier of Marion, who fir?t in troduced the bill and withdrew it. was excused from, voting today.

A Deputy Fish Warden for the Southern Oregon district with an an nual salary of $1000 is provided for In tho bill of Representative von dr Hollen, of Jackson, whiclr passed the House this morning. The Master FiV?h Warden is aJJowed Tor his own office a clerk at an annual salary of $900. Vawter of Jackson declared that the lsh laws were constantly being vio lated along the Rogue River and that the Fish Warden could do nothing with out a deputy residing in the district. Kay asked a few questions and said that no special appropriation should bo made for these salaries, but the bill passed. Salaries uf Douglast County ofHccra are at last flxed by the substitute bill -of the delegation which passed "the Houso today.' Tho County Tlcrk is to receive $3C0Ofor himself and one dep uty; the Sheriff's salary is to be $2200. with $1000 for one deputy and $750 for as. second deputy; the County Judge shall receive $1200, the Treasurer $1200, the School Superintendent $1200, the As sessor 51 203 and the County Commis sioners $5 a day while In . attendance at the County Court.

To require notice of forged checks to be given by bank depositors within three months after vouchers are returned, a bill of Representative McLeod's passed the House today. Speaker Mills said lie saw no reason why any corporation should object to the measure and Smith of Josephine declared it a meritorious measure. Kay of Marion thought it unfair and Injur ious to the workingman. but Smith explained that objectionable features had been cut out ofTfie original bill, and it went through. For employment of convict labor the Governor Is authorized, by a bill passed by the Houso today, to enter into a new contract for leasing tthclr. labor. as under .. .. , : 1 the present contract, at not less than 35 cents a day. The bill provides that the proceeds -derived from the contract shall 1)0 expended for Improvements at the penitentiary Instead of going- into tho general fund. The measure comes" from the commit tees on ways and means, which are agreed that no change in the convict labor system is advisablo at present Two House appropriation bills passed the lower chamber today one for 4425,000 for departments of the state government, the other for $1,024,000 for state Institu tions. "Josephine" Smith got in a whatk at the railroads this morning when the House passed one of his bills to prevent railroad corporations from reserving min eral rights in sales of land, and from en gaging In mining except for coal or pe troleum for fuel. Smith explained that three or four deeds to lands sold by the Southern Pacific In Josephine County contain the reservation which the bill alms to prevent. "Buncombe, pure buncombe," exclaimed a representative of the Southern Pacific today in speaking about the bill. "All we've got to do is to form a mining cor poration for transfer of tho lands with mineral reservations." The bill provides that railroads which have made mineral reservations must be gin mining within five years, else the re served rights shall lapse. Courtesies of the House were ex tended to W. D.

SALOONS BARRED TO GIRLS Malarkey's Measure Meets With Such General Favor That Nottingham's Pet Goes Through With a Vote to Spare. SALEM. Or.. Feb. (Special.) Ma larkey's bill to prohibit femalae under 21 years of age from being in yaloons or saloon boxes jassed the Senate tonight by unanimous vote. Nottingham's bill to prohibit the use of side doors to saloons, except saloons opening directly Into the barroom, passed the Senate by a close vote, after a hard fight Malarkey's bill was Introduced for the purpose of making It a substitute for Nottingham's bill, but after the passage of the former, the Senate also gave Its approval to the latter, notwithstanding the adverse report of the Judiciary' com mittee and the vigorous opposition of Senatora Malarkey and Rand. Nottingham said, in support of bis 111. that it is designed to prevent men from taking girls Into saloons or saloon boxes where their morals are corrupted. He said that girls and boys arc Induced to go into side doors when they would not enter by way of front doors. In view of the public. Malarkey denounced the bill as a crazy measure which has secured the support of many Senators because it Is popular Just now to Jump on the saloons. He as serted that no young and virtuous girl was ever taken Into a saloon except by her parents, for It she were virtuous she would not go. Senator Rand concurred In Malarkey's remarks and said this is an attack upon the business interests of the state.

KAY CALLED TO THE CHAIR Marion Representative Loses Chance to Declare Himself. SALEM. Or.. Feb. 1.. (Special.) A broad grin went round the House this morning when Speaker Mills called on Kay of Marlon to preside over committee of the whole for consideration of a bill for departments of the state government during the next two years. Never bafore had Speaker Mills summoned Kay to the gavel, and members of the Houso had been woudering. the paf Jlv weeks, whether Speaker Mills' rival, defeated for the mallet by one vote In Republican cau cuk. would ever receive summons to the walnut throne. The grin came not so much front sur prise as from the muzzling of Kay's- man ifest desire to attack one of the items in the bill appropriating $120-) a year for an assistant to the Attorney-General. When tho bill came up for passage. Kay Jumped to his feet with a vim which be tokened fight Looking at Vawter. he suggested that the Houec go into com mittee of the whole, but Speaker Mill? summoned to the chair, to preside over lh committee, not Vawter. but Kay. The Marion man hesitated, but obeyed the summons. When the $1200 Item was read Kay an nounced that were he- on the floor ho would have something to say and the House smiled again. "Josephine" Smith posed as watchdog of the treasury during the rnading of the bill and fought to cut down three or four Heme, but the committer of the whole at on him each time and tho bill went through the reading tinhcathed. The Items which Smith wished cut down were $21,000 for clerks and stenographers to the Secretary of Statn. $300 for cerk& and stenographers to the Superintendent of Public Instruction and $60.0flrt for the State Printer. Smith declared 510,003 suf ficient for i-lerks and . stenographers to the Secretary of Slate, because that offi cer should spend the money derived from few. and perquisites for paying derks and stenographers. "I sc no reason," shouted Smith in his loudest volc. "why the state should pay the Secretary of. State's clerks In order that the Secretary of State may keep' his fees to himself. This appropriation tf In- creased year after year," cried Smith at the top of his lungs, and sat down in his chair with a thud. In the $60,000 for printing. Smith scented "a nigger In the woodpile." and the item "uniform .series ot school record books and blanks" he declared was provided for every two years in order that the Super intendent of Public Instruction's office might "feed tho State Printer," and moved that tho sum be cut down to $50,000. Vawter. chairman of the .'ways and means committee, objected, saying that a deficiency would result which would have to be paid by the state anyhow. The bill was then adopted as a whole, but Kay brought up the subject of ap propriating $8000. In addition to the $S600 j provided for improvements in the Capitol, ! in order that alterations might bo made In the top floor of the building to provide more committee-rooms. To consider the matter the House went Into committee of the whole again. "Josephine" Smith made a big laugh by gazing hard at Kay, who was presiding over the committee of the 'whole and ex claiming, severely: " 'Tis sweet to hear the honest watch dog bay deepmouthed welcomo as we draw near home."' and sat down with another thud. The committee decided to let the $SW0 I Improvements wait arid- voted down the motion to insert them Into tho bill. The bill then passed. Smith of Josephine be ing the only member who voted no. Senator Co?hows bill to grant the City of Uoseburg power to Issue $200,000 bonds to establish a light and water plant was defeated in the Senate today through the efforts of Senator Booth, who Is also a member from -Douglas County.

RULED BY NORMAL SCHOOLS Some Business Man Must Be Bene fited Before Any Measure, Never So Meritorious, Can Be Put Through at Salem.. SALEM. Or., Feb. 13. Special.) Severe criticisms of Oregon Legislators were made, by Governor George -E. Chamber lain in an address delivered before the students of Willamette University, this morning. . "The four Normal Schools of this state." declared tho Governor, "are today controlling legislation In the present ses- slon of the Legislature. 1 make the charge without fear of contradiction, that no measure which does not meet with the approval of the men who are representing the different Normal Schools, nor any measure which they oppose, can possibly be passed." The subject of his address was "Official Delinquency," and It was chosen, as ho cald. by the occurrence of recent events which made it peculiarly timely. After calling attention to the fact that corruption In public life was not a local but a general evil, that It was confined to no one department of public life, but that It. was to be found in city, county, state and Federal Government, he cited instances to show that it was also not characteristic of any particular political party. "The thief ha3 no party." he declared. "Where there is Democratic control, he is a Democrat, as in St. Louis: and where there Is Republican control, he Is a Re publican, as In Minneapolis." The speaker next sought for the causes of this state of affairs, this "grafting" and corruption, and stated that In every Instance It was business and the business man who is responsible. "Why, young people," he said, "if you will go over here, just across the street. to our Legislature, nnd study the condi tions there, you will find that -it is im possible for a single meritorious measure to be put through, unless some business man is aided thereby or without first having assisted some business man or men in the passage of soma graft legis lation." It was then that he referred to the Nor mal School domination, as above stated. "This condition of affairs In our public life Is very deplorable." said the Gover nor, and he made t strong plea for edu catud men and women, who should go out from Willamette University and other schools, prepared to use their power and their influence, toward the uplifting and educating of public opir.Icn until that pub lic opinion would demand of the man in public life as high a Ktandard of moral ity as it demanded of him in private Hf1. Governor Chamberlain called attention to the recent developments in the land frauds in Oregon and said that he was both sorry and ashamed because of them. He said thaf It was a source of i-hame to every citizen of Oregon, re gardless of political affiliation, that out of ! four representatives in t digress, three ot them' stood lndleted. and practically con victed, of breaking the laws of the land. He declared that the sympathy which was being poured out to these men was ill timed, "for the higher a man is In office the gropter the trust reposed in hjm by thc people, so much greater should the punishment be when he sins." Incidentally, in th cours of his address, the Governor mentioned the fact that he had had some quarrels with the present Legislature. "And I expect to have some more before it is over," he said, "but I do not wish to quarrel with them, and will not unless rim f-atisfled that I am right, and when convinced that I am right I shall certainly oppose th;m, aud I don't care what they do with me." He was warmly cheered by the students and faculty and many times was com pelled to pause because of the applause. When he finished. President Coleman thanked him very heartily for having Colic and stomach roubles are avoid ed t using; Mellin s Food for. the : baby.

Burns of Clatsop, Capron, Cran. Colwell. Qraham, Qriffin, Hol comb.VLaws, Mayger and "Weloh. Smith of Josephine, wao was in fino oratorical fettle this afternoon, sailed into the measure as soon as read. He declared that Eastern cities were tearing- out poolrooms and that the Mult nomah County Sheriff had closod up two in Portland. Kay said he hoped no member would vote to license a form of gambling. , The Portland Representatives who voted for the bill were represented by Balley. who suggested that each cit7 should have the- right to sortie such questions for Itself. At tho State Fair ho hdd occupied a seat in Mr. Kay's box and witnessed United States Sena tors and other well-known men betting upon the races. Kay emphatlcally denied that he bet upon races. Mayger made a short explanation of the bill, but all In vain. As Serjeant-at-Arms Isenbcrg is in the hospital tho House this morning adopted the resolution of Richie of Marlon naming: F. C. Baker as Ser-geant-at-Arms for the remainder of the session. Mr. Baker lives at Salem. ASTORIA CHARTER IS VETOED Attempt Will Be Made to Override in House and Senate. SALEM, Or.. Feb. 13. (Special.) The expected veto of the Astoria charter came to the Senate today from the Governor, and action thereon was made a. sneeia.1 order for 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The reasons for the veto arc substanti ally those indicated by dispatches in to day's Orcxonian. that the Mavor and eight out of nine of the Councilmen of Astoria have asked for the veto, and that the provisions relating to assessments for street Improvements arc of Question able validity. It is quite likely that the bill will pass the Senate over the veto, for the bill is favored by Senator Tuttle. of Clatson County, and it is the practice to support a. oi-uuiur in local measures in wnicn ne Is Interested. It will therefore be up to the House to sustain or overrule the veto. The House delegation from Clatsop County is not in favor of the bill, and there is some likelihood of their eettiaa- help enough to prevent the passage of tho mu over tae veto.
