VIHL
TO BE ASSAILED
Signs Apparent That Fight Will
Be Renewed With In
creased Bitterness.
SCHOOLS WANT $321,660
One Bill Proposes Consolidation of
All Normal Into One and That
It Shall Have Its Loca
tion at Portland.
STATE CAPITOU f-alem. Jan. :0.
Special.) The flRht over normal schools
will be renewed in the Oregon Legisla
ture with old bitterness. Already the
skeletons of the Kaunt schools at Wes
ton. Monmouth. Ashland and Drain are
hauntln the lawmaking body. Three
biils to fatten them up are In the House
for their benefit and two In the Senate.
Tomorrow the vetoed appropriation for
the Monmouth school, passed last ses
sion, will come up In the Senate on spe
cial order. The bill appropriates $38,000
for Monmouth and $27,000 for Drain, the
Drain sum havln been tacked on to
Monmouth as a rider.
Drain Ha-s Deficiency Bill.
Drain came forth today in the House
with a bill for 17000 appropriation to meet
deficiencies at that Institution between
January J. 1907. and June 16. same
year. At the beirlnnlnc of that period
state money had ceased. The school
continued from September. 1907. until
June. 1908. In a precarious manner on
donated or subscribed funds, since which
time It has been closed. For that period
another bill will be Introduced In behalf
of Drain to meet deficiencies by Kepre
sentatlve Buchanan, of Douglas, for JS000
or J"000. Today's bill was presented by
Representative Applepate. of that county.
The Monmouth school has been operat
ed since the last Legislature on sub
scribed funds, and those who rave the
money have no claim on the state, since
they sls-ned relinquishments before the
Ftate Board of Normal Refrents would
consent to conduct It under state aus
pices. It Is said there will be no bill from
Tolk County Interests to meet deficiencies
at Monmouth, but there probably would
be no objection If the Lefrtslature. out
of the kindness of Its heart, sbould pay
back the money.
$321,600 for Xormals.
The hunfrry appetite of the normal
schools was Indicated today, when two
bills apoeared In the House appropriat
ing; j:;;l.6i9 for their benefit. Both
were introduced by Representative Mc
Cue. of Clatsop, who la a praduate of
Monmouth and who foutrht vainly last
session In defense of Monmouth. These
bills cite the recommendation of the
Foard of Re (rents that the schools at
Monmouth. Weston and Ashland be
maintained, and Ieav Dram out In the
cold. The ltema of the appropriations
are as follows:
Weston Salaries teachers and em
ploves. $10,000; maintenance, $16,000;
library. $1000: land purchase. $1600; dor
mitory. $50,000; total. $107,600.
Monmouth Salaries teachers and em
ployes. $40,000; maintenance. $1600; li
brary. $1000; dormitory, $50,000-. total,
$106,000.
Ashland Salaries teachers and em
ployes. $40,000; maintenance. $15,000;
library. $1000: land purchase. $2000; dor
mitory, $50,000; total. $108,000.
Bill for Consolidation.
In the Senate. Senator Smith, of
Marlon, haa Introduced a fcili for one
normal school In Portland and for the
'disposal of all the present normal school
buildings at other places In such manner
s the Normal Board may deem best.
Another bill In the Senate. Introduced
fcy Abraham, of Douglas, apportions the
state Into five normal districts, each dis
trict to have one of the present four
normals. The fifth district Includes
Multnomah County, where the school Is
to be placed in Portland. Funds for
maintenance of these five normals are
to be raised by district tax. levied y a
board consisting of the County Judges
cf each of the districts.
Senator Abraham's district Mil provides,
that the special tax on the property of
the district shall not exceed one-half
mllL The five districts are formed as fol
lows: '
District 1. Josephine, Jackson, Klamath.
Lake and Harney Counties.
District 2. Lane, Douglas, Cooa and
Curry Counties.
District 8. Lincoln. Benton. Marlon.
Linn. Tillamook. Polk and Tamhill Coun
ties. District 4. Clatsop. Columbia, Washing
ton. Multnomah. Clackamas and Hood
Uiver Counties.
District 5. Gililam, Wheeler. Morrow,
T'matllla. Union, Bo-er. Wallowa, Mal
heur. Grant, Wasco, Sherman and Crook
Counties.
Jones Has Another Scheme.
Representative Jones, of Douglas, has
presented a bill to move the Ashland
Normal to Drain, continue the school at
Weston and abolish that at Monmouth.
Jt, therefore, appears that the Douclas
County Legislators are busiest of all in
producing normal bills. Each of Its four
members of the Legislature is fathering
a bill of his own Applegate and Bu
chanan to make deficiency appropriations;
Abraham to set up normal districts, and
Jones to abolish Ashland and Monmouth
and to establish Drain.
The early vigor of the normal fights
signifies that normal appropriations will
be the center of one of ine hardest con
tests In the Leaisjature. The normal
S'-hooIs are at a disadvantage on the com
mittees on ways and means because both
President Bowerman and Speaker Mc
Arthur made a special point to shut them
off those committees oi important bodies.
On the House committee only two of the
seven members are nonnal representa
tives Mann, of Vmatilla. and McCue, of
Clatsop. In the Senate, no normal county
has a member on ways and means.

STATU CAPITAL. Salem. Jan. 20.
(Ppecial.) Representative Katon, chair

In that body directing the members of

cors-rrt of two-thirds of its members. The
rvBl rurposo of the measure is to defer
consideration on any measure carrying

private stenographer, it was provided
in that resolution that where practi
cable these stenographers should serve
as clerks for the committees of which
the Senators are members.
Senator ParriSh explained that the
private stenographers of the five Sen
ators on the committee on county
and state offices are all busy and that
this committee has now eight bills
before It and must have another sten
ographer. This made the situation
very favorable for the employment of
the additional stenographer, but Sen
ator F. J. Miller, of Linn and Marion,
had a surprise to spring.
"I am a member of the committee
on county and state offices," said he.
"I have a private stenographer who is
not engaged and who can serve on (fee
committee and I see no reason what
ever for the employment of a special
stenographer for that committee. I
must remonstrate against the adop
tion of this resolution."
A motion to suspend the rules and
act upon the resolution at once was
voted down, though it had 14 affirma
tive votes. Tho resolution was re
ferred to the committee on resolutions,
of which Kay Is chairman, and will
undoubtedly be reported bak tomor
row with an adverse report.' when a
contest will be had to determine wheth
er the stenographer shall be employed.

FOR NEW DISTRICTS
Senator Coffey Offers Bili to
Redistrict State.
BILL IS ORDERED PRINTED
Proposed Amendment Has Been In
dorsed by Grange and Would
Give One Senator to
Eiich district.
STATE CAPITOL, Ealem, Jan. 20.-(Spe-cial.)
Senator Coffey wants the constitu
tion amended so as to provide for the di
vision of the state Into 30 Senatorial dis
tricts and 60 Representative districts, so
that there shall be one and only one Sen
ator from each district, and only one Rep
resentative from each Representative dis
trict. This Is the plan Indorsed by the
Grange, the idea being that If legisla
tive districts be made smaller, the can
didates will be more generally known to
the voters and the chances of securing
better men will be enhanced.
Coffey's proposition Is embodied In a
resolution submitting an amendment to
sections 6 and 7 of article 4 of the con
stitution. The Senate today ordered that
this and all other resolutions for consti
tutional amendments be printed before
being acted upon by the Senate. A sim
ilar resolution has been introduced by
Representative Mahone.
Selling's Query Unanswered.
When the Senate convened this morn
ing the usual practice of dispensing with
the reading of the minutes was not fol
lowed, but the Journal of the preceding
day was read In full for the purpose of
ascertaining that the record was com
plete and correct as to the election of
United States Senator. After the Journal
had been read. Including the protests en
tered by a number of Senators who voted
according to their pledges. Instead of ac
cording to their Individual preferences.
Senator Selling Inquired -whether any
Senator was compelled to vote as he did
against his wishes. There was no re
sponse. Killing for Game, Manslaughter.
Killing a human being for a deer, a
pheasant, a coon, a bear or some larger
or smaller animal will become a crime
If Senator Abraham's Senate bill 73. In
troduced today, becomes a law. The bill
declares that killing a human being by
mistake for an animal shall be man
slaughter. Senator Abraham will work
zealously for the enactment or mis in
for the reason that homicides of this kfiid
have become very common and there
have never been any punishments in
flicted. State Cares for Consumptives.
