placed upon this by President Kerr.
At present. ' through demonstration
trains, experimental work and Itinerant
schools, the college succeeds In doing
a emnll amount or extension work, but
this I not altogether as satisfactory
as could be desired. Great Interest waa
shown by the leglsiators In this con

the belief that extension work will
be well cared for.

CHEMAWA. Vr.. Feb. i. (Special.)
That Mary Dowllng. the mother of Se
ll na Dowllng. the beautiful half-breed
Indian girl who was arrested at Ju
neau. Alaska, following the death of
her mother by poisoning, waa trying to
sell her daughter In marriage against
her wish and according to tribal cus
tom, la Indicated by a letter which waa
received here on October S. 110.
The authorltlea of the Chemawa In
dian School received .this letter from
Edward Powllng. the girls father, who,
the girl says, suggested the purchase
of th poison for the murder of her
mother. In his letter Dowllng says:
"I have a daughter here who Is
about 1 years of age. but rather small,
and who haa had but little schooling,
and I desire to give her aa fair a start
In life aa my circumstances aa a labor
ing man will permit and to keep her
away from the Influence of her native
mother, whose tribal custom Is. at or
about this time, to sell her In marriage
to most any man who would pay her
her price. I expect the United States
District Court, will give me complete
custody of .i child to be placed in
some such Institution aa yours outside
the terrltoiy."
Ing a population of not less than 2600
and not more than 20.000 will have the
privilege of trying the commission
plan of municipal government.
The bill la fathered by Allen of
Yakima, who declares it Is virtually a
copy of the laws under which cities of
the East have adopted the commission
plan. The purpose of tho proposed law
la to give clllos of (he xecond, third
and fourth class an equal right with
cities of the first clasa to consider this
form of city government.
Opposition waa made to sthe bill by
Shaefer. of Spokano. who declared that
some of Ha provisions were vlcloua
and that control of the amall towns
would prove more unsatisfactory than
the present system.
All the Senators from Pierce de
clared that the commission plan now
operative In Taroma is not a success
and they advised against passage of
the bill. Jensen, ot Tacoma. aald that
aa the Senators from the smaller cities
wanted to try the commission plan, he
would vote for the bill and help them
to gut a lante of the "new-fangled Idea
of government."
The bill provides that the commission
ghall conxlst or a Mayor and two com
missioners who shall anrve for three
years. The right Is given to any city,
which shall have operated more than
alx years under the provisions or the
act, to adopt the plan or city govern
ment covered by the law then ap
plicable to cities of Its population.
The Senate passed the House joint
memorial asking the President and
Secretary of the Navy to provide the
Pacific Coast with better naval de

In outlining his case before the Com
missioner. Attorney i. X. Teal, repre
senting the lumbermen, told or traffic
conditions affecting South Portland
mills as they formerly existed. It for
merly was necessary to route cars of
lumber out the JefTerson-street line
from the mills, he said, to Whlteson,
and then to bring them back on the
Fourth-street line, across the Steel
bridge to Alblna, where they were made
up with other freight Into trains for
shipment East. The charge for this
100 miles of switching was TVs cents.
Later a cutoff was made to St. Joseph,
reducing the distance to 84 miles and
the charge to E cents. In July. 1910,
the Wlllsburg-Oswego cut-off was fin
ished, which cut the distance to IS
miles, and the switching rate to 4 cents
a hundred, pounds. Then an effort was
made to get the United Railways and
Southern Pacific to make physical con
nection of their lines on Front street,
so that rare could be routed over the
United Railways tracka to the terminal
yards and Alblna
One Mill Benefited. -
Of shipments east, the O.-W. R. & V.
Co. absorbs the switching charge for
the Inman-Poulsen mill, 't Is aald. and
the railroads ought to do it, contends
Attorney Teal., for the other mills. At
torney Cotton contends that where a
blanket rate la made, the railroads have
to draw the line somewhere, and that the
4-cent switching charge to South Port
land mills is reasonable.

rates were 4 cents per 100 pounds lesa
from South Aberdeen than from South

land to Wallace were 5 cents per 100
pounds more, he said, than from Port
land to Wallace. The through rate from
South Portland -to Idaho is 1 cent a

HOMESTEAD MEN HILT; PISAP
PKOVED BY GOVEK'XOR. .
Senator Nottingham's Measure .Is
Returned as Injustice to Set
tlers by Dealers.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. S.
(Special.) Governor West today ex
ercised his right of veto for the first
time when he returned to the Senate
with his disapproval Senator Notting
ham's bill, providing for the enforce
ment of mechanics' liens against home
steads. The veto message will be sub
mitted to the Senate when It recon
venes Monday morning.
Governor West's veto message, ad
dressed to the President and members
of the Senate, la:
'I return you herewith Senate Bill
No. 87 with my veto. Under the law,
as It now stands, a homestead, not ex
ceeding J1500 In value and being the
actual abode of any family, is exempted
from Judicial sale except when it
stands as security for a mortgage loan.
By Senate Bill No. J7 It Is proposed to
extend the exception to mechanic'
Hens, and the move is prompted, so I
am informed, by the desire of material
and supply dealers to relieve them
selves from the duty and responsibility
of Investigating the standing of con
tractors to whom they aell supplies,
and of throwing the' burden upon the
homesteader.
"The dealer l In far better position
to protect himself from unreliable and
irresponsible contractors than is the
homesteader, and the passage of this
bill would be practically equivalent to
repealing the present homestead law. I
therefore return said bill to you with
my veto."
A similar bill la pending In the
House.

Sunny Monday is white,
