IS Fir Relief Association Also Favors Good Roads and Text Books Made by State. Th. Farmers' Mutual Fir. Relief As sociation of Oregon went on record yes terday at Its annual meeting In Login Hall. Grand avenu. and East Washing ton street, against any change In the present insurance laws of the state and against the bills pending In the Ileitis lature. Herman Loedlng. the secretary, declared that there was no demand for any change and that whatever change was mad. would be expensive to the mutual Insurance companies. H. " W. P-iashall. president, also spok. against proposed Insurance legislation. A reso lution expressing the sentiment of the association will be sent to Governor West. The association adopted a resolution favoring the proposed legislation on the school hook question. It was set forth that the present method of handling th. school book question in Oregon Is "wrong. Iniqftnus. and a heavy burden on th. taxpayer.." and. as th. proposed rlan Is to permit th. printing of the t-xt books by the state, the association declared Itself In favor of th. change. In th. Interest of good roads in Ore gon the association adopted unanimously resolution favoring the employment of convicts. It wa. declared that th. present method of farming out th. con victs in th. penitentiary was wrong and tended to bring convict labor into com petition with free labor. Secretary Loading's financial report showed that In 190 th. association had K. 43. Sit insurance on th. homes of farmers in the state. Last year ther. was written J90.:i2. In new business end renewals, making a total of S3.3t5. 11$. By expiration, of policies this amount was reduced by 1199.(41 to 33. M3.4T4. The Income Including a balanr. of S11SA was given as tU.!4. and th. expense ISllt.lt, leaving a balsnc. of S'.IOO on hand. President Gnashall said that th. asso ciation could now Issue policies above 1:000. as th. association had now S3. vO.ooo Insurance, but that th. directors had decided to adhere to th. I30CO limit for th. sak. of prudence. Th. following director, wer. elected: K. W. "nashall. flv. years: Fred Oroner. four . years: Andrew Brugcer. three years; A. J. Fanno. two years; C II. , Flanchard. one year. 'Within 10 days th. directors will meet and elect a presi dent and secretary-treaaurer. FENDER REBATE OFFERED Makers Mako Price of $62 When Full Kqulpment Is Taken. Through City Auditor Barbur. the American Automatic Fender Company offered to compromise Its price of fen ders with the Portland Railway. Light A Power Company, which recently ap plied to the City Council to aid t In getting low rates for the device. The offer of the company was made through its attorney, S. B. Huston. -When the Nelson automatic fender, which Is manufactured by the American Automatic Fender Company, was chosen by the Council for streetcars of this city, th. manufacturers agreed to furnish th. fenders to the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company for 13.50 each. When th. company later wanted to buy 300 of the tenders at that price, the manu facturers said that If fewer than th. en tire number needed for the city was to b. purchased, tb. price would be .o each. The compromise offered by Mr. Huston Is as follows: "We hereby submit th. following as a modification of the prices heretofore quoted: Five hundred fenders. (K2.S0 each; 300 fenders. 175 each, with the pro viso that when a aubsequent order is given for the equipment of th. remain der of the air cars of th. system of th. Portland Railway, Light A Power Com pany, the entire number. Including the 2U0 first purchased, will be sold for $62 each." SCIENCE IS SECOND HAND Oregon to Benefit by Experiments Made In Washington. In explaining why Oregon has no rep resentatives In certain fields of agricul tural endeavor from th. United States Department of Agriculture, Senators Bourn, and Chamberlain. In a joint letter to C. C. Chapman, manager of th. pro motion committee of the Commercial Club, say that representatives of the de partment detailed to th. Stat, of Wash ington are working along lines of ex perimentation which will be of benefit to Oregon. No explanation Is given why Washing ton happens to have the representatives Instead of Oregon. Th. Inference from th. letter la that Oregon should b. satis fled to receive the benefit of th. re searches of th. department scientists MOODd hand. . IMPULSES IN CONFLICT MR. COTTON' POINTS TO FLAWS IS LEGISLATION'. caiersen aenwrs i present eooues. bard ooal for 110. Kast IC1, C 1101. Damage Verdicts Vnchanced, Crim inal Cases Subject to Review, tTnder Xew Tendency. ' Personal reminiscences of the "other follow." given by T. B. Wlloox and Wil liam D. Wheelwright, an address In behalf of railroads and frowning upon adverse legislation by W. W. Cotton, a discussion of advertising values by 11. M. Haller, president of the Cham ber of Commerce, and one on "Our Water," by Krnest W. Hardy, wer. fca tures of the noonday luncheon of the Portland Ad Club yesterday. Mr. Wheelwright told the life history of Air. IJcox, and Mr. llcox gave the biography of Mr. Wheelwright. Many amusing Incidents were told. Mr. Cotton, general counsel of the Harrlman system In this section, point d out that "ad" men could be of value by educating the masses In the direc tlon of legislation which would favor th. Investment of capital in railway stocks and bonds. "The efforts to restrict the earning power of railways by reducing freight rates." said the speaker, "and by fixing the physical valuation of railways, per mitting only a certain per cent on that sum. to my judgment Is the one danarer point of this country. It destroys the attractiveness of the Investment, for it possibly insures a return for the money in good times and leaves th. Investor to take care of himself In bad years. "The initiative amendment, recently adopted, provides for a verdict which shall b. unchanged, regardless of ths facts In personal damage cases, while in criminal cases the sentence may be changed by the court of final resort, no matter what the crUne or ths fact. It is this feature of contrary Impulses which may give our laws a reputation objectionable to Investors." Harvey O'Bryan acted as toastmas ter. while David N. Mossesohn. presi dent of the club, presided at the busi ness session. Committees were ap pointed for th. ensuing year. Picture Men Want More Time.

CANNERY MEN PROTEST CLOSTXO OF ROGUE TO FISHLVG MAY BE RUINOUS. Uume Interests Would Make Com promise With Members of Fish Protective Association. MEDFORD, Or., Jan. 18. (Special.) In order to effect a possible compro mise with the members of the Rogus River Fish Protection Association, who fathered an Initiative bill closing the Rogue Rlverto commercial fishing at the last election, Herbert Hume, nephew of the late R. D. Hume, and manager of the Hume estate, and Ivan Humason, of Portland, who recently purchased the interests of several of the heirs, arrived in this city today. They base their 'Contention that the river should be reopened, on the ground that Its closing has meant practically the confiscation of their canneries at the mouth of the river. "We are willing," said Mr. Humason, "to stop fishing for steelheads and only fish for salmon. The latter are value less to the sportsman. We are willing to shorten the season and to live up to any requirements necessary rather than to allow our plants, wnicn mean an investment of several hundred thousand dollars, to remain Idle. "We will turn our Elk Creek hatch ery over to the association to be used as a trout hatchery. If they will accept It, and Instead of refrigerating steel heads for the Eastern market, we will assist to protect them. "We will agree to anything within reason and are of the belief that had the people of Oregon known when they voted the river closed, that they were ruining an established Industry and two thriving communities, Gold Beach and Wedderburn, they would have looked at the matter differently." Members of the Fish Association say that before they passed the initiative measure all their efforts to protect the steelheads were laughed at by the late R. D. Hume, and charge him with hav lng defeated the measure when first presented to the Legislature. ROADS TOPIC AT BANQUET Automobile Club to Discuss Import ant Function Tonight.
