STATE MILITARY
CODE HELD VALID
Attorney - General Crawford
Declares New Law Will
Stand Test Easily.
LOOKS UP CONSTITUTION
Measure in Which Guardsmen Are
Deeply Interested Only Awaits
Governor's Signature In Or
der to Become Kffective.
Question raised yesterday morning a to
the constitutionality of the new military
code, -which jrlves Adjutant-General W. H.
Plnzer a life tenure on hie position.
caused consternation In the camp of the
National Guardsmen who drafted the
measure. Alarm that the measure might
be brought up for reconsideration and
thrown out because of Irregularity of
form did not vanish until late In the
day. when Attorney-General Crawford
rendered an opinion upholding the con
stitutionality of the clause. After a care
ful examination of the law. Jlr. Crawford
said it was entirely constitutional and
rexular.
The question as to ita regularity was
raised by Representative Campbell, of
Clackamas County, who has been oppos
ing the measure. He quoted section 2
of article 10 of the State Constitution
which says: "Whenever the duration of
any office is not provided for by the
constitution it may be declared by law
If not declared such office ehall be lield
during the pleasure of the authority mak
ing the appointment. But the Legislature
shall not create any office the tenure
of which shall be longer than four years
This appears convincing enough, but the
superficial aspects of that section van
ish immediately under interpretation. As
dissected by Jlr. Crawford last night the
section does not apply to the provision
of the military code permanently estab
lishing the Adjutant-General's office; at
least does not apply in the sense of re
stricting that action for the office in
question is Itself created by the consti
tution. s
"I believe the measure is all right after
an examination of the law affecting the
subject." said Mr. Crawford. 'Section
3 of Article 10 provides that the Governor
shall appoint the Adjutant-General and
the other chief officers of the general
staff and his own staff. That makes the
office of Adjutant-General a constitu
tional office. Section 2 of Article 10 says
that when the duration of any office is
not provided by the constitution it may
be declared by law. and if not so de
clared may be held during the pleasure
of the authority making the appointment.
Thus it is a constitutional office and not
an office created by the Legislature. The
tenure i not prescribed by the consti
tution. Therefore it Is within the powers
of the Legislature to prescribe its dura
tion." This opinion was concurred in by Judge
Advocate-General Bauer after an after
noon devoted to examination of the laws
Involved. Other attorneys and one well
known jurist approached by the com
mittee which drafted the measure held to
the same idea, so the guardsmen re
ported last night. Hence they say that all
nuestlon as to the bill is ended and that
it will become a law as soon as Governor
Chamberlain's signature Is attached, and
the Governor is quoted as being earnestly
In favor of the new code from beginning
to end.

BOfi STILL OCCUPIES CELL
OWNERSHIP OT- WHITE PUP TO
BE FOUGHT OUT TODAY.
Many Witnesses Will Testify in Suit
Over Mlltlades, Canine of
' High Degree.
Beset with such troubles and over
whelmed by such indignities as have been
the lot of few canine aristocrats. Mil
tiades. the white bull terrier pup claimed
by Mrs. Eva Fouts, still occupies a soli
tary cell in the City Jail, disconsolate
and morose. The question of his owner
ship was postponed in Municipal Court
yesterday and will be heard today.
Mlltlades shows what he thinks about
such treatment in every way possible. A
shabby, poorly-dressed prisoner who had
been arrested for vagrancy, attempted to
pet the dog yesterday by putting his
hand through the bars and patting him
on the head. Mlltlades sprang at the
proffered hand of friendship with feroc
ity, as If to show that he completely
spurned such company.
The dog rebels against captivity. Re
fusing to eat, pacing nervously back and
forth in his cell, he has abandoned the
air of aristocratic stoicism he assumed
when first confined in the cell. Several
persons called to see him yesterday,
among them Mrs. Fouts, each claiming
the animal as his own. So thoroughly dis
gusted was MilUades with his treatment
that he ignored them all, refusing even
a friendly wag -of his tail.
A bitter fight for possession of the dog
led to his incarceration in the Jail as the
result of his capture on a search warrant
Issued Thursday In Municipal Court at
the instigation of Mrs. Fouts. Most of
the officers and many others believe she
really owns the dog. but other claimants
assert a case of mistaken canine Iden
tity.
Sam Fries, driver for Inman-Poulsen,
who says he intrusted the dog to the
care of Ziegler at the barn where he was
taken. Insists that Mlltlades is his own,
and that the dog claimed by Mrs. Fouts
Is a full brother of the big white terrier
now confined In the Jail.
Persons from St. Helens, where the doe
is said to have been born, have been
summoned and will appear In court this
morning to testify. Veterinary surgeons
nave also been subpenaed, policemen will
appear and numbers of others will ofTer
testimony this morning concerning the
ownership of the handsome dog.
Mrs. Fouts. while emphatically assert
ing her ownership, is distressed as a re
sult of the claims set ud by the others.
She Insists that she could not be mistaken
in the identity of her pet.
SOUNDS BOTE OF WARNINC
AMERICA BECOMTXG XATION OF
DIVORCEES, SAYS RIDDELL.
Speaker Urges Necessity of Laws
Uniform Throughout Country
and Higher Morality.
"Love and Lovers, Marriage and Di
vorce," was the title of Newton R. Rid-
aens lecture last night in the White
Temple. This lecture concluded the
series which Mr. Riddell has been de
livering there during the past two
weeks. The lecture was in the nature
or a plea for a more thoughtful atti
tude toward the married relation, and
a presentation of certain principles
governing that relation from the stand
point of psychology. The speaker re
ferred to the evils of divorce, and de
clared that only a National divorce law
and stricter regulations relative to
marriage would bring about the desired
change. Said Mr. Riddell:
"Marriage is rapidly on the decline:
divorce Is on the increase in America;
every 12th marriage results In divorce.
We are becoming a nation of divorces.
The respect for marriage, the fidelity
in marriage, is on the decline. It is
one of the gravest problems that con
fronts the American people from the.
Judicial, social and religious stand
points. W hen Rome was mistress of
the world It is said marriage was high
ly respected. The Roman woman was
proud to be a mother and the wife of a
Roman. The fall of that great empire
is known to have been due to a lower
ing of the moral standard of the Ro
man people. Pessimists have presumed
to see the same dangers menacing this
Republic, which will result as they did
in Rome, unless something is done to
stop this matrimonial infidelity.
"I have no such fear. Christianity
will redeem us from our mistakes.
Some day we will wake up and recog
nize the evil of divorce. Laws will be
passed restraining thousands who have
no right to marry. Marriage at its
best is heaven realized. Marriage at
its worst need not be defined. Obser
vation and history prove that the phys
ical, mental and moral nature are best
sustained in a life of holy wedlock,
juarriage has for its first object the de
velopment of the individual; for its sec
ond object the perpetuation of the race.
History proves that children to be well
born must be born of love, must be
raised and sustained by. love. Mar
riage has for its third object the estab
lishment of the home, the nucleus of
society.
"I have bombarded Congress for
years for a uniform divorce law, but I
haven't even heard an echo yet. The
President is .interested, for he says so
from time to time. I want to get peo
ple away from the marriage from hyp
notic control, from purely mercenary
motives. About one-third of all the i
marriages are the result of these. They
