TII3 MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1907. BILL LOSES GROUND Chapin Commission - Measure Is Hurt by Its Friends. COUNTRY MEMBERS AFRAID They Contend Chamber of Commerce Support Shows Portland Alone Will Gain to Exclusion of Other Sections. SALEM, Or., Feb. 10. (Special.) Ap pointment of a committee by the Port land Chamber of Commerce to cornn to Salem and lobby In behalf of the Chapin Railroad Commission bill is apparently not helping the chances of that measure, particularly anions the country members of the Legislature. Small groups of members who returned tonight from visits to their homes dis cussed the bill in an informal way and almost all of them made remarks show ing the adverse effect of the -activity of the Portland Chamber of Commerce. There Is a feeling among the members from outside counties that the Railroad Commission bill may be of special in terest to Portland shippers, and that it may prove injurious to outside shippers. While It was vigorously denied that the enactment of the bill could prejudice outside shippers, while helping Portland, the action of the chamber of Commerce has created doubts that were freely ex pressed this evening. Last week the Oregon Tlmberman sent to people In all parts of the state blank cards to be signed and mailed to members of the Legislature asking them to support the Chapin bill. The csrds were accompanied by envelopes stamped and addressed to members, so that all the recipient had to do was sign his name and mall the envelope. This plan of encouraging passage of the bill has also had an effect which at pres ent appears the opposite to what was Intended. Some of the members call this an attempt to "bulldoze" them. One Senator says the only requests he has ever received upon the subject came in these stamps and addressed envelopes, which circumstance leads him to think that there is no general demand for a Railroad Commission and that an appear ance of demand for it Is manufactured by use of this scheme of sending out ad dressed envelopes. If there were any general demand for a Railroad Commis sion, the Senator said he would receive personal letters from his constituents upon the subject. w Bills In the House. SALEM. Or., Feb. 10.

T Chamber of Commsro, Eight of Party Escaping Saturday Night Are Recaptured Remain ing Three Surrounded In Woods Hear Turner. SALEM. Or.. Feb. 10. (Special.) AH but three of the 11 boys who escaped from the Reform School last night have been retaken and these three are lost ln th woods near Turner and are surrounded by a posse of men. Superintendent Looney thinks there Is no doubt that the boys will be captured before morning. The three that are yet at large are Kile. Potter and Rejester. Potter Is said to have a bad record and has escaped from the school before. He was a party to a robbery in Portland last Fall and the only thing that saved him from the pen itentiary was the fact that he was under sentence at the Reform School. He has been a student of the life of Tracy, and from the books giving acts of that outlaw nis mind became poisoned with a wild desire to follow his example. He has been Known to pass these books around among the other boys, saying that "Tracy was a great man." Of the other eight who escaped, two were taken at the Indian school at Chemawa last night.' and the others were captured near Turner today.. Contrary to what was first thought, the boys did not go north, but turned south Instead. It seems to have been their plan to stay near the school for a few days and then make a dash for liberty. MAT HAVE ROBBED STORE Brooks Burglary Credited to Reform School Runaways. SALEM. Or.. Feb. 10. (Special.) 'Word was received here today that the store of Ramp Bros., of Brooks, was broken Into last night and $25 in money and sev eral knives were taken. The parties also stole two pairs of shoes and left their own ln the store. It Is thought by the authorities here that the robbery was committed by some of the Refrom School boys, who escaped yesterday. T T COLUMBIA AND CLATSOP WllJj OPPOSE DRISCOLL'S BILL. Measure Provides Compulsory Pilot age for AH Craft Save Coasters and Fishing Vessels. SALEM. Or., Feb. 10 (Special.) Rep resentative Driscoll has introduced the bill creating the Port pf Columbia from the district Included ln Multnomah, Co lumbia and Clatsop Counties, and re pealing Sections 3991-4029 as to the towage and pilotage service on the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. The attempt to create such a district will be resisted, but just bow much of a fight will be made Is not known. The bill was Introduced by Mr. Driscoll at the request of the transportation com mittee of the Chamber of Commerce and the fact that the plan for a new board of enlarged representation has originated ln Multnomah County with out ap,y solicitation on the part of the other two counties Included ln the dis trict. Is one reason that the measure will be opposed by the delegation from those counties and by their friends. By the bill, the towage service is to extend from the open sea at the en trance to the Columbia to all points on that river, extending as far inland as Tongue Point. The bar pilotage is to extend from the uppermost dock or wharf at the Port of Astoria, or Knappton, Wash., to at least ten miles beyond the uttermost buoy. Only vessels engaged in the whaling or fishing trade and vessels licensed and engaged exclusively In the coast ing trade between any point in Oregon and any port on the Pacific Coast are held exempt from the compulsory pilotage provision. The bill limits the liability of the Port of Columbia to $10,000 for the loss or damage of any cargo by a faulty tug or the careless ness and Incompetency of the pilot. To acquire suitable tugboats and pi lot boats and other necessary appli ances, the bill authorizes the new board to Issue bonds to the amount of $400, 000, bearing not to exceed 6 per cent interest, the denomination of the bonds not to be less than $100. They are made redeemable on the basis of 1-10 of the Issue each year. The Interest is made payable semi-annually. . The board Is authorized to levy a tax of not to exceed 1-40 of one per cent on all taxable property In the three coun- The Meatshop on the Corner With Prices "On the Square." "Few people think A great many think they think And a very great many only think they think they think." Why Is a Government 3 Inspector o THINK! At least this seems to' be the conception of certain gander-goslings, who go about clad in goose-flesh, hissing at Imaginary "trust" goblins that never ex isted. Occasionally these bipeds (who pose as public philanthropists (?) while passing out two sorts of "beef" to Portland folk), slip up on their own banana peel. Especially does this occur when they break into figures. Just now the public Is suffering from a plethora of gush about being "saved" some $3,000,000 a Year on Their Meat Bills. NOW THINK Allowing Portland 150.000 population men, women and children dlvluje into families, of say tour people to a- family fair. Isn't it? Result 37.500 families. Allow each family $8 a month for meats $9 a year. (If you're paying more you're not buying good, whole some. Government Inspected meats at the Harry Wood market). Result $3.6.10,00) a year, Portland's total meat consumotlon. r.ow comes tms mathemati cs 1 follower of Rocky Willyfeller, who proposes to cut down this modest expenditure bv lopping off the $3,000,000. In Other words, lie expects 37.500 families to exist on $600,000 a year for meats allowing rach family the munificent sum of $1.33 per month for their "batcher bill' and probably expects 'era to eat meats that never met a Government Inspector, and wouldn't knew one from a cow that died of the glanders. Such rot Is an Insult to honest intelligence. To those yammers who cry so loudiv of "befriending the people." posing under the parasol of 'philanthrophy" while getting the public's money, we have this to say: - Tour quarrel with the world Is onlv a quarrel with yourself. Get in line with the planets. To the public we would remark: Piety Is pretty fair but not so good as performance. We don't pose as "Saviors of the people," but we defy "trusts" or "Trust busters'' to match these saving f 'rices on Government Inspected meat that bear the nspector's stamp, guaranteeing sanitary conditions, health and cleanliness.

The bill provides for the appointment of three commissioners, presumably one representative from each of the three counties. City Officers at Huntington. HUNTINGTON, Or., Feb. 10.
