JTina Member's Opposed to Mon

22 Against Ashland on
Final Ballot.
STATU CAPITOL, Salem. Feb, 11
Special.) With a rush as invincible as
that of a star football team, the normal
school combination in the House today
passed separate bills appropriating 1106.-
each for the three schools at Ashland.
Weston and Monmouth, for the biennial
I?rlod ending December 31, 1910. Little
'Ppos!tlon developed to the bill providing
fr the Monmouth School, and it passed
by a vote of 60 to 9. Opponents' of more
than one institution Joined the anti-normal
school members and voted against
the We m on School appropriation bill, but
It passed by a vote of to 17. three ab
sent. A determined fight against the
Ashland School Mil was conducted by
Campbell and Dimick. of Clackamas, but
the friends of the three-diool programme
w ere too many and this bill also passed
v.iih 37 votes in its favor and 22 against,
it.
Separate Bills lie ported.
Earlv in the day the ways and means
committee, complying with the instruc
tions of the House, reported separate ap
propriation bills for each of the three
schools. They were made a special or
5er for 3 P. M. on motion of McCue. who
opened the discussion with a strong ap
peal for state support of his alma mater
Monmouth. This was the first bill to
c.-ime up. MeKinney. Jones (Lincoln and
Polk). Miller and Mahone supported the
Mil with short addressee. No opposition
to the measure appeared until during
rollcall, Farrell explained that he would
vote against it, for the reason that there
were only 441 pupils at the three normal
schools, according to a report dated last
Iwember, so that the proposed appro
priations by the state amounted to nearly
Jkv per capita. He said he favored sup
porting one school and providing ade
quately for it but the contemplated pro
?r.imme, he Insisted, carried with it too
heavy a tax against the people of the
state.
A vote being taken, the following nine
Representatives voted against the Mon
mouth appropriation: Brandon, P'arrell,
Hatteberg. Hines. Jackson. Jones (Doug
las I. Jones (Clackamas). IJbby and Meek.
Clemens Makes Futile Protest.
When the Monmouth kill had been dis
posed of. Clemens, member of the ways
and means committee, registered a pro
tect to the appropriations for two other
schools. He based his objection on the
around that since Multnomah County paid
one-third of the taxes of the state, the
passage of the three bills amounted to
assessing a direct tax on that county of
over fl-'.'.oon. He explained that it was
the Intention of the ways and means com
mittee to make ample provision for one
normal school, but the Ho'iso had voted
otherwise, and for that reason the three
Y!!ls had been reported!.
'i'lthout further debate, the vote was
taken Dimick. Greer and Jones (Clae.k
amifO. explaining their votes against the
tIU by saying that they favored one
hool but would not give their vote to
Mils carrying appropriations for more.
Those voting against the "Weston School
were: Abbott. Brandon, Campbell, Cle
mens. Dimick. Farrell. Greer, Hatteberg,
Hines. Jackson. Jones (Douglas), Jones
Clackamas). Libby, Meek, Munkers, OT
ton and Smith.
' Campbell Opposes Ashland.
It was not until the bill for the Ashland
Echool came up that the normal school
forces were forced to muster their
strength.
"I have sat back and watched this
House hand out the people's money ail
day and saidi nothing." said Campbell, in
opening the debate against the Southern
tregon School. "The sum of tlOO.OOO has
Just been appropriated to the people of
Southern Oregon that they might build
a road to Crater Lake and now they want
an additional J106.O0O. There is no reason
why the state should appropriate J-118,-ono
for the education of about 400 normal
school students. The time has arrived
when this Legislature, in the Interests
not only of the taxpayers, but of the
normal schools themselves, should call a
Jialt. If this bill Is passed, following the
other two. I am confident that the peo
ple will invoke the referendum on all
three bills with the result that all three
echools will be wiped out."
In closing the debate Campbell called
attention to the fact that tne state pro
vided a tax of only )S per capita for
the education of public school children,
while the Legislature proposed to
make provision for about SS00 per cap
ita for training students In the normal
schools. He insisted that this ar
rangement was entirely unreasonable
and unwarranted.
Dimick made an equally strong ar
gument against the retention of more
than one normal school. He Inquired
why there was greater need for three
normal schools than there existed for
three state universities or the same
number of agricultural colleges. He
mainiameu i nai iiiurt-aavu tiuvaiiiaueB
would result from the establishment of
one central school for the training of
teachers. The speaker also charged
that the present system every two
years breeds a normal school combl-.
nation In the states legislative halls
that sent many a meritorious measure
of legislation to the graveyard that
the combination might secure contin
ued appropriations for these schools.
Jie read from a pamphlet showing that
Indiana had only two normal schools,
Kansas two, Kentucky two, Maryland
one, Missouri three and Nebraska one.
From the same authority he charged
that the cost per capita for normal
school students In this state was $138
and that this per capita cost was ex
ceeded only in seven other states, as
follows: Wisconsin. Washington, South
Carolina, Rhode Island Ohio, Massa
chusetts and Colorado.
Friends Hush to Support.
Buchanan. McArthur. Carter and
Brady made effective talks for the sup
port of the Southern Oregon school. In
sisting that. Inasmuch as the eastern
and western sections of the state had
been cared for. the prosperous section
on the south should be recognized and
provided for.
The vote by which the Ashland bill
was passed and which shows the nor
mal school combination in the House
was as follows:

STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Feb. 12.
(Special.) The Senate this afternoon
rassed the Conservation Commission's
bill for an irrigation code, but with
several amendments, the most impor
tant of which is one providing for the
electlofi of the State Kngineer and two
water superintendents, instead of hav
ing them appointed by the Governor,
ss was provided in the original bill.
These amendments, while not agreed
to by the framers of the bill, are not
particularly objectionable. All other
amendments related to matters of de
tail and were satisfactory to the rep
resentatives of the Conservation Com
mission. The amendment regarding election of
the State Engineer was proposed by
President Bowerman, who said that a
man who holds so Important a position
as this, with power to control the use
of water, should be kept close to the
people and that the best way to do
this is to make him elective. Bower
man asserted that If the people are
competent to elect a United States Sen
ator they are also competent to elect
a State Engineer. Senator F. J. Miller
questioned this, saying that a State En
gineer must have special training and
qualifications for the position and that
the people have no means of knowing
of the qualifications of all the candi
dates who may appear in a direct pri
mary. This amendment was adopted
by an overwhelming majority. The
first election wfll take place in 1910,
the officials serving in the meantime
to be appointed by the Governor.
. There was some opposition to the
emergency clause but this opposition
entirely disappeared when Senator
Hart and Senator F. J. Miller pointed
out that If this bill should be passed
without an emergency clause, there
would be 90 days in which speculators
could file on water rights before this
bill could become a law, and one of
its main purposes would be defeated.
Senator Hart also reminded the Sen
ators that it would take some little
time to get the machinery of the new
law Into operation and that If the law
did not become effective until the lat
ter part of May. the season would then
be so far advanced that not much could
be done this year.
Another feature of the Senate bill
which was not contained in the House
irrigation bill is the section protecting
vested rights. That section of the
Senate bill was agreed to by the Con
servation Commission and the repre
sentatives of the power companies and
its language Is so broad as to protect
any and every right that now exists,
without In any way creating new rights
or recognizing any that may be In
doubt.
The Senate bill also makes the wa
ter masters subject to some control by
the County Courts as to the amount
of time they shalll work, so that if
a water master tries to graft he can
be discharged. The plan is to have
the water masters work only during
the portion of the year when they are
needed.
The Senate bill divides the state
Into two divisions, one comprising all
of what are known as the Western
Oregon counties. The engineer is to
be elected in the state at large and
one superintendent In each division.
these three constituting -the board of
control of the appropriation and use
of water.
It Is believed that the bill will pass
the House without delay.

in the past, and to perform all the duties
that usually fall to the private secretary

the law firm of Chamberlain & Thomas in
1S95, and became stenographer in the
executive office in 1P02. In the law office

looking after office business. Since .com

j.
Wilkes Booth Not Buried, but
Thrown Overboard.
SALEM, O., Feb. 12. That the body
of John Wilkes Booth, assassin of
Abraham Lincoln, was tossed into the
Potomac River, and not buried in the
Booth family plot, is the belief of R. B.
Thompson, a newspaper man of this
city. Mr. Thompson bases his state
ment on the revelation of the secret
made to him eight years ago by Cap
tain E. W. Hllliard. then commander of
Tom Smith Post. G. A. R-, Metropolis,
111. Captain Hilliard. who died a few
years ago, told Mr. Thompson that he
and four privates of Sheridan's army
reported for "duty at the old capltol
prison In Washington one night a few
weeks after the assassination and in
company of a surgeon and Corporal,
Booth's corpse, disfigured by burns,
was removed from under a stone slab,
wrapped in a tarpaulin and carried to
a gunboat In waiting. The vessel
dropped down the river 10 miles and
the assassin's body, weighted, was
placed on a plank and shoved into the
river. All concerned were bound to
profound secrecy and Mr. Thompson
says Captain Hllliard told him the tale
most reluctantly, after having inad
vertently given a clew at the time of
President McKinley's death.

RESOLUTION OX PROPOSED CO
LOMBIA RIVER BRIDGE.
The following resolution on the Co
lumbia River bridge project was in
troduced by Representative Mahone,
of Multnomah, and seconded by
Representative Sparks, of Clark
County, Washington:
Resolved, That it be the sense of
this meeting that we Indorse the
project of the matter of the con
struction of a bridge across the Co
lumbia River and that both legis
latures of Oregon and Washington
he requested to appropriate $5000
each for the preliminary work of
same, making flO,000. or such
amount of the said appropriation to
be used as is required.
The resolution will bs Introduced
at both Legislatures on next Mon
day. Unless the plane of the Joint committee
from the Legislatures of Oregon and
Washington miscarry, the Columbia River
I between Vancouver and the Peninsula
will be spanned by a bridge within the
next five years. At a meeting last night
of the members of committees of the Joint
Legislatures, plans for presenting such a
movement to the law-making bodies of
Oregon and Washington were discussed
and It was decided that an appropriation
of $6000 by the Oregon Legislature and
JS000 by the Washington legislature be
recommended, the money to be used In
obtaining the services of Ralph Modjeska,
or some other celebrated bridge builder,
whose duty it will be to furnish plans and
estimates.
Some time ago the proposition of build
ing such a structure across the Columbia
was brought up before the Legislature
ny Senator Beach at the request of. J. H.
rsolta. of Peninsula. The resolution &p-
pointing a committee to meet with a like
committee from the Washington Legisla
ture was speedily put through, with the
result that Senator Beach was named
as chairman, to act with Senator Bailey,
and Representatives Mahone, Davis and
Campbell. A copy of the resolution
passed by tne Oregon Legislature was
sent to Olympla. There Senator R. Allen
and Senator W. M. Beaeh, together with
Representatives W. W. Sparks, Dr. A. T3.
FJastham and J. A. Miller, were appointed
as a committee to meet and confer with
the Oregon delegation at Portland.
Senator Allen Chairman.
The Washington delegation arrived
yesterday afternoon, and while hun
dreds of people were celebrating Lin
coln's birthday upstairs with a ban
quet, the legislators met downstairs
and talked over the proposed Columbia
River bridge. Upon motion of Senator
Beach, of Oregon, Senator Allen, of
Washington, was named as chairman
of the meeting, and Senator Beach
himself was elected secretary. Before
the gathering settled down to business
Tom Richardson was introduced and he
extended to the visiting Washington
statesmen a cordial welcome. Mr.
Richardson assured the visitors that
anything looking to the development of
Oregon and Washington would receive
the hearty support of the business in
terests of Portland, and especially of
the Commercial Club.
Judge M. G. Munly left the banquet
and also talked bridges with the dele
gates. Judge Munly was introduced
by Senator Beach, who told the mem
bers of the Washington Legislature ,
that Judge Munly knew much about
the proposed bridge, for he had made
a study of the matter. After telling
of the vast advantages the bridge
would mean to Vancouver and Port
land, and especially to the wealthy
farming districts of the river counties
on the Washington side. Judge Munly
gave facts and figures on what he
thought would be the cost of the struc
ture. $10,000 Preliminary Expense.
"I discussed the proposed bridge with
Ralph Modjeska," said Judge Munly,
"and he Informed me that it would cost
about $10,000 to employ an engineer. This
would of course be only the preliminary
cost. For this amount I am of the
opinion Mr. Modjeska could be hired, or
someone else with as great a reputation
as a bridge builder. This money would
furnish the plans, the soundings and
everything complete. This $10,000 may
seem a large amount, but In my ex
perience and in watching the construction
of bridges in this and other countries, I
most emphatically favor employing the
best engineers In the country. It would
take at least two years to get this matter
under way and then It would take at
least five years before the bridge could
be completed, so all we can do now is
arrange preliminary plans.
"While I am not prepared at this time
to say what such a bridge would cost, I
believe If the Joint states are going to
have such a structure built, they should
see to it, that it is to be the best money
can construct. In my opinion, speaking
on the matter now, I believe a bridge
that would meet the requirements of a
great growing country like Oregon and
Washington, would cost between $2,000,000
nd $2,500,000.
Rentals to Pay for Structure.
All the Washington state men were
greatly interested in the project. Rep
resentative Sparks, of Vancouver,
stated that he had made some inves
tigations regarding the proposed
bridge. He said that he had learned
that the cost of maintaining the ferry
across the Columbia River amounted
to about $2000 a month. Mr. Sparks was
of the opinion that if the bridge was
built, the street railway - company
would be only too glad to pay for the
use of the bridge, which would be the
means of making it self-sustaining
from the rentals.
Mr. Nolta told the committee how he
came to be a-ther of the movement:
"I had been reading of the proposed
automobile road from Los Angeles to
Seattle," he said "and it suddenly oc
curred to me, that we should have a
bridge across the river. Then I be
gan to think over what it would mean
to Vancouver and to Portland, so I
took the matter up with Senator
Beach at Salem. This gathering is
the result."
A delegation of a dozen or more men
was present from Vancouver, and
through P. C. Lavey pleaded for the

proposed bridge. Mr. Lavey also made
a motion, which carried, to the ef
fect that Congress be memorialized to
Rive aid to the project. Mr. Lavey
made the point that a bridge across
the Columbia at this point might
sometime be necessary for a'military
road, and for that reason the Govern
ment might be willing to aid in its
costruction.
Resolutions were passed asking the
Legislature of each state to appropri
ate $5000 for preliminary expenses,
such as hiring an engineer and mak
ing plans and soundings.
The session of the committee con
tinued till a late hour, and the mem
bers were unanimous in their ap
proval of the project and their willing
ness to work for it in their respective
Legislatures.
Senator Allen, in accepting the
chairmanship of the committee, prom
ised he would do all in his power to
get his colleagues to pass favorably
upon the appropriation. Senator Al
len and Senator Beach, of Multnomah,
make a good team. Both are workers,
and as Senator Allen stated he was
a crank on good roads and public
health. The idea' of the bridge ap
pealed to him. for bridge building and
good roads mean the development of
the state, he said, and he promised to
help the project in any way possible.
The Washington delegation will
visit Vancouver this morning.
