It was the second time today and could not be ad vanced to third reading without two thirds vote. It received only 32 ayes on a motion to suspend the rules. Senate 'Wrangles In Vain. The House concurrent resolution pro posing appointment of a committee to ronfer on some equitable plan for main taining the state normal schools had riarcely reached the Senate when it was Killed by indlllnite postponement on mo tion of Bingham. This fate of the reso lution was voted before the friends of the normal schools could Introduce any debute In Its support. The same disposition was made of an other House resolution proposing that Ihe people In the November. 1910. election be permitted to vote on the retention of each of the three schools, also whether 'i'rJnt.a11 tl,ree should be abolished. The icielinite postponement of this resolu tion, however, was preceded by a debate that was at times heated. When the motion to postpone had been made by Bingham, Smith of I'maHlla de manded that in a spirit of fairness the .senate should unite with the House and give the people of the state an oppor tunity to pass on the normal school prob- m. Selling agreed with Smith, but Al bre feared the resolution, if adopted would result In confusion in that the re sult of the vote on the different subjects might require the decision of a court to determine their true effect. Norton Would Leave It to People. Norton of Josephine and Smith of Uma tilla said there was a demand for a nor mal school system In the state and that the people should be allowed to decide what It should be. Miller of Linn and l-we declared that the people would like to have ono normal school, for which adequate appropriation and equipment should he provided. "But they do not want to continue the three schools wo now have." he said. "They have become a stench to the nostrils of the state and should be done away with." Hedges opposed the resolution for the reason that amounted to mere boy. play in that it proposed to rnnfoi- tha they could exercise at their pleasure un der the Initiative. With Hart absent, the motion indefi nitely to postope was resisted by the fol lowing 11 members, the other 18 voting affirmatively: Abraham. Beach John son. Kay, Kellaher, Mulit, Norton Oli ver, selling, Sinnott and Smith of Uma tilla. Half an hour later Smith of Marlon Introduced a bill abolishing all three schools and appropriating J10.000 each for the support of each until the end of the school year. June 30 next. Smith of Lmatilla promptly moved that the bill be Indefinitely postponed. He charged that the normal school supporters had not been consulted with regard to the bill and did not want such a measure passed. Bingham and Hedges took the position that it was not necessary for any member to notify any other mem ber or to consult with any other mem ber regarding the introduction of any proposed measure. Don't Know "What They Want. Hedges said he " would support the bill, not because It provided for the contin uance of the schools as he would like to see, but because It seemed the best way out of the situation. Nottingham expressed surprise that the members from normal school counties would offer any objections to the bill. The same surprise was expressed-by Smith of Marlon and Albee, who explained that if the normal people did not want any assistance, the bill would better be killed outright. Not tingham charged that it was the evident Intention of the friends of these schools to prolong Indefinitely the normal school fight in the Legislature. On motion of Smith of TJmatnia to post pone Indefinitely the blU was defeated by a vote of 10 to 17. Miller of Linn and Lane then raised the point of order that the bill proposed new legislation and should not properly be brought before the special session. This objection was waived aside by the anti-normal forces, who insisted there was neea for decisive legislation if the normal school question ever was going to be settled. Kay fol lowed with a m.tion that the rules be suspended and the bill be read a second time. This motion prevailed by a vote of 19 to 9. Bowerman Joins .In Debate. President Bowerman, who had called Barrett to the chair, objected to the bill In Its present form for three reasons: Be cause it provided more money for the schools than they should receive for the rest of the year, because It did not re peal all of the normal school legislation n the statute books and for the further reason that it did not make any disposi tion of the property novj used for nor mal school purposes. He said that some of this property belonged to the school district In which the normal school build ings are located and the bill should pro vide for the restoration of suh property to Its original owners. On hiB motion the bill was referred to the judiciary commit tee for further amendment. STATE isfPiirMILEIlEE EXPENSES OP SPECIAL SESSION ABOUT $7500.

GROSS TAX LOST Killed by Implication and Ad Valorem Stands. REVENUES ARE INCREASED Dlmick's Motion to Adopt Minority Report Lost and Plan Xot to Touch Regular Sessions Enact ment I Carried Through. (STi CApITOL- Salem- March 16. SaUiBeCa.Ur th6 gros3 earnings ,eHaCted by the initiative In act60TethB fc'l'ea by Implication by a tax vaw Legislature In 1907. the ad Li not touched by the special session. One of the reasons for the spe cial session was the supposed repeal of the gross tax laws by the ad valorem act or the regular session last month. This was shown to be an error at the joint session of the House judiciary and tax committees last night, by Attorney-General Crawford, C. B. Aitchison and ex Senator F. W. Mulkey. When the Joint committee reported to the House this morning, recommending that no further legislation be made. Rep resentative Dimick, of Clackamas, chair man of the committee on Judiciary, sub mitted a minority report urging re-enactment of the gross earnings tax laws This minority report he moved to sub stitute for the majority report, but his motion was lost by a vote of 17 to 41 The majority report was then adopted. Dimick urged that, inasmuch as the gross tax laws were enacted by the peo ple they should not be reopened by the Legislature, but should be re-enacted. The opposing argument advanced by Rey nolds, chairman of the committee on taxation. Bean, and Mahoney, was that the new system provided by the regular session would raise much more revenue than the gross earnings system which it has supplanted. Bean argued In particu lar that there is strong probability that the Supreme Court of the United States will declare Illegal the gross earnings tax which the state Is fighting to collect from five public service corporations. Reynolds made the further point that the gross earnings tax is probablv uncon stitutional, since the constitution re quires taxation of all property to be equal and uniform and the franchises taxed by the gross earnings law are prop erty in the meaning of the constitution. Dimick could not prevail against these arguments. The members voting against his motion to substitute his minority re port for the majority were: Barrett, Beals, Bean, Bedillion, Belknap, Bone brake, Bones, Brandon, Brooke, Buchan an. Calkins. Carter. Clemens. Corrigan. Couch, Davis. Dodds, Eaton. Farrell. Greer. Hawley. Hlnes, Hughes, Jackson, Jaeger, Mahone, Mahoney, Mann, Mar iner, McCue, McDonald. Meek. 'Miller, Muncy, Purdin. Reynolds, Richardson, Rusk. McArthur. This disposed of the tax bill. The mat ter did not come before the Senate. It is estimated that the ad valorem system of taxing public service corporations will raise an additional state revenue of be tween J200.000 and $250,000 annually.

ADHERE9 STOKTLY TO RULE Senate Refuses to Take Up Any Ken Business. STATE CAPITOL. Salem, March 16. (Special.) A House memorial, urging Congress to establish a free road through the Umatilla Indian Reserva tion was killed in the Senate this morning by indefinite postponement. It w-as attacked by Senator Bingham who charged that It was a measure of new legislation which was precluded by the terms of the resolution adopted yes terday and restricting the work of the Senate to the consideration only of cor recting defective measures enacted at the regular session.

An -unsuccessful attempt waa made to pass a bill today rendering In operative the dairy Inspection act of the regular seBslon by reducing the pay of three Inspectors from J120O to $100 a year. The bill passed the House with 24 votes and waa indefinitely postponed In the Senate tonight. It transferred appoint ment of the Inspectors from Dairy Com missioner Bailey to Governor Benson. The bill was suported by the foes of the act of the regular session' who declared that the act originally gave the appoint ment to the Governor, but was altered by secret influences In the enrolling to vest that power In the Dairy Commissioner. Patton declared that he would invoke the power of the courts to prevent the Dairy Commissioner from making the ap pointments. He said tonight the purpose of his -bill was to kill the act of the regular session, because Marion County dairymen do not want It. A motion of Abbott to postpone the bill Indefinitely waa lost. Beals and Bone brake defended the original act. Brandon asserted that the act is not wanted by the people, the dairymen or the creamery men.

HIDES J1EMBEBS OP HOUSE Campbell Declares They Will Drive State to Socialism. STATE CAPITOL. Salem, March 16. (Special.) "The House Is actlg worse than it did on the first day of the regu lar session," declared Campbell of Clack amas this morning, at a particularly turbulent and disorderly stage of the proceedings. He continued: "Such tactics are driving the state to Socialism faster than anything you could t 2. ,wonder th People kick about the Legislature. We spend our time fool ing with petty matters, and when it comes to something important we rush it through without any consideration. It Is no wonder the people elect Statement No. 1 members. The way some of the Representatives act the only wonder is that the people do not exact pledges from members covering every move that may be made during the session." This outburst was the result of efforts made to rush through hills drawn to cor rect errors In the game code. Orton also protested vigorously against the haste.

Unable to withstand the temp tation of changing the game code of the regular session, both houses today plunged Into the subject with several new amendments.

When the bill for the protection of elk was under consideration in the Senate, Hedges asked that the Senate go Into committee of the whole that amendments providing more severe penalties for vio lation of the law might be submitted. This was voted down as was also an amendment offered by Chase and provid ing for Imprisonment of from 30 days to one year in Jail In addition to the fines of from $100 to $250 named in the bill Chase argued that the effect of provid ing a jail sentence would be salutary in preventing violations for the reason that offenders who would be willing to pay a fine would be slow to break the law if they knew they would be compelled to serve a term in jail. Wood, chairman of the game committee, and Barrett, however, contended that the punishment provided in the measure was sufficient and suggested that If the penalties were made too severe there would be difficulty In securing convictions.
