OLTMPIA, Wash.. Jan. 27. (Special.)
Judge J. W. Robinson, of Olympla, recent
ly disbarred for six months by the State
Supreme Court for contempt, has started
a campaign against the state administra
tion. At the time of his disbarment Rob
inson was understood to be a candidate
for the Supreme Bench and the court Is
said to have made his punishment six
months rather than a year to avoid the
charge that the court had deliberately
prevented his candidacy. Now it Is un
derstood here Robinson has agreed to sup
port the candidacy of Judge Stephen 'J.
, Chadwick, of Whitman County, Demo
crat, for the Supreme Bench, while Robin
son himself Is an avowed candidate for
Attorney-General. In hopes of securing
Democratic support, Robinson has em
ployed special help to check throuph the
vouchers in the State Auditor's office to
see if the expenditures mad by state offi
cers, including the Governor and Assist
ant Attorney-General E. C. MacDonald,
of Spokane, will disclose anything that
can be used against the administration in
the campaign. RobinBon is particularly
bitter against Assistant Attorney-General
A. J. Falknor. who drew the charges
against him under which he was dis
barred, and Is fighting (MacDonald be
cause the latter Is said to be supporting
Falknor in his efforts to secure the Re
publican nomination for Attorney-General.

dent Warehouse at Downing.
VESTON. Or.. Jan.' 27. (Specials
Twenty representative farmers from
north of town met here Saturday after
noon and organized a company to build
a grain warehouse at Downing Station.
The following officers were elected:
George W. Staggs, president; J. R. Kill
gore, vice-president; George Winn, sec
retary: George Carmlachael, O. B. Woods;
O. C. Turner, directors. Mr. Carmichael
was appointed to secure warehouse
ground from the O. R. & N. Co. at
Downing Station. A good profit on the
Investment, as well as independence of
the exporters, is looked for, the state
ment being made that a farmers' ware
house at Milton had paid 33 per cent in
dividends In 1!6 and 35 per cent in 1907.
The movement, it Is thought, will result
In a number of large independent ware
houses ' being erected in this neighbor

jects to celluloid collars. He told the

SCHEME TO LIFT
LID A WEE BIT
Mayor Reddy, of Medford, Pre
sents Initiative Petition
With 9000 Signatures.
AMEND THE CONSTITUTION
Proposes to Give Cities Exclusive
Right to Say Whether Towns Shall
Be Wide Open or Closed Take
Law Out of Sheriffs' Hands. .
SALEM, Or., Jan. 27. (Special.) A big
surprise was sprung today when Mayor
J. F. Reddy, of Medford, filed an initia
tive petition for a constitutional amend
ment, which, if adopted, will ' result In
many "open towns" in Oregonj His
measure proposes an amendment to the
section of the constitution relative to
municipal corporations.. The purpose is to
give cities exclusive authority to license,
regulate or suppress race tracks, pool
rooms, theaters, saloons and similar
places.
The . effect - of this amendment, If
adopted, would be to divest Sheriffs and
District Attorneys of the power to sup
press poolrooms, Sunday saloons and
Sunday theaters and give municipal
authorities power to run a town as wide
open, as they desire. The constitution
now provides that city charters must be
"subject to the constitution and criminal
laws of the state." The amendmentpro
posed by Mr. Reddy leaVes out this im
portant clause. t
Has Over 9000 Signatures.
Though the petition for the proposed
amendment has been circulated and bears
over 9000 signatures, it has not been gen
erally known that such a move was on
foot. Mr. Reddy also filed an argument
in support of his measure, the substance
of which Is that the conditions in one
part of the state are not similar to those
in another and that each city should have
power to regulate its own affairs.
Mr. Reddy's measure proposes to amend
section 2, article 9 of the constitution, so
as to read as follows
Corporations may be founded under gen
eral laws but Bhall not be created by the
legislative assembly by sDecial laws. The
, legislative assembly shall not enact, amend
or repeal any charterior act of Incorporation
for any municipality, city or town. The
legal voters of every city and town are
hereby granted power to enact and amend
their munlciDal charters and the executive
power to license.' regulate, control and tax,
or to suppress or prohibit theaters, race
tracks. liool rooms, bowling alleys, billiard
halls, and the sale of liquors subject to the
provisions of the local option law of the
State of Oregon, within tne corporate nm
Its of any municipality is vested In such
municipality.
The section at present reads as fol
lows: 1
Corporations may be framed under general
laws, but shall not be created by the Legis
lative Assembly by special laws. The Leg
islative Assembly shall not enact, amend or
repeal any charter or act of Incorporation
for any municipality, city or town. The
legal voters of every city and town are her
by granted power to enact and amend their
municipal charters, subject to the const!
tution and criminal laws of the State of
Oregon.
Reddy and Others Sponsors.
"Who is back of this measure?" Mr.
Reddy was asked, when seen at the Wil
lamette Hotel this evening.
"I am, and a number of othft people,"
he replied.
"Who are some of the other people?"
"Well, I wouldn't care to give their
names for publication. People who be
lieve that a city should govern its own
affairs are back of it."
"Is it favored by the Mayors of other
cities besides Medford?" .
"I think it is. We don't like to have
county officers meddling in matters that
relate to city affairs. . But I don't want
to go into an extended discussion of the
measure. I filed a brief in spport of it."
"Will the churches support the pro
posed amendment?" Mr. Reddy was
asked.
"I think they ought to if they are fair
and believe in home rule," he responded
with considerable earnestness.
Doesn't Know About Gamblers.
"Will the gambling element support the
measure, was naturally the next inquiry.
"I don't know; I hadn't thought about
that."
"Would the effect of this amendment
be to avoid the decision of the Oregon
Supreme Court which declared pool-sell
ing to be a public nuisance?"
"Well, now you are going too deep.
That is a question I don't want to discuss
for publication."
So far as Mayor Reddy will disclose,
he alone is sponsor for the proposed
amendment. A. Crofton, formerly man
ager of the Wholesale Liquor Dealers'
Association, was in the city today, but It
was announced that he was here in con
nection with the Seufert fishery bill, and
there is no indication that he has any
connection with Mayor Reddy's amend
ment.
