Buchanan took the position that tha
committee had proceeded without any
authority from tha House, and for that
reason Its report was not entitled to
the conaideratlon of the House.
Jonea of Clackamaa here Intervened
and waa successful In carrying a mo
tion tauling the report.
nine the committee submitted It
report. It ha been learned that It pro
ceeded with Its Investla-atton last
Falurday after being advised by Speak
er Rusk that there was no authority
for such an lnvestlsatlon. As an ex
cuts for proceeding, tha rommlttea ex
plained that It had already summoned
witnesses.
There la every Indication that the In
vritliratlon waa "railroaded." and It is
apparent that it waa Inspired by some
body ""higher up." from the fact that
Rackleff. chairman of the Itousa com
mittee, did not know that tha witnesses
testifying at the hearing had been noti
fied to appear before the committee un
til several hoars after the witnesses
had been notified by teleirraph that
auch an Inquiry would he conducted.
There Is no disposition on the part
of House members to shield the Dairy
nd Food Commissioner, the feeling be
ing prevalent generally that the in
dictments returned by the Investi
gating committee are Justified. Tha
only division of opinion I tha manner
In which tha Legislature should pro
ceed. It la probable that not later than to
morrow tha report will bo taken from
tie table In tha Hou.e and referred to
a committee, probably the Judiciary
committee, with Instru-t Ions to submit
recommendattona as to what step
should b taken.

liowerman said:

Members of the UcMiturt who would
oust nauey irom Ms office are In a
quandary as to how to proceed. It Is

rORTLAND. Feb. 7. To tha Editor.)
I hav held tha office of Dairy and
Food Commissioner for 11 years, or sine
February. and during that time
hav given my best efforts to tha build
ing up of the dairy interests of this
state. I hav been the author of all
Oregon' pur food laws, and Oregon
waa tha first state to pasa the law pro
hibiting the sale of colored oleomargarine.
Tha Legislature ha Increased the allow
ance for this office until wa have three
Inspectors out all the time, whose duty
It Is to aend samples for th chemist to
test. Complete records are on file In
th office from practically tha day of
th organization of the offlc to the
present time, and ara open to tha in
spection of the public. Kach year the
work has grown more Important, as Is
shown by th large number of prosecu
tions that are being made. At first the
rherclcal analysis wa mad at Corvalll.
but since the Legislature provided a
chemist for tflle work I have had three
chemists, ail graduates of th Oregon
Agricultural College and these men all
ram well recommended from that Insti
tution. There has been no politics in
tha management of thla office or In th
appointments made.
Mv records show that th analyses
mada by these chemists run up Into th
thousands of food and dairy products,
also show the number of creameries and
cheese factories of th slat and their
output. Full records of the prosecutions
are on file showing th amount of
money spent, and th fines turned In.

sent about a year and a half ago. and
also a copy of the answer to the same
sent to her. to which no answer has ever
been made. During the Investigation
befor the legislative committee. Mrs.
Hockey, as he. id of the committee of th
Fort land Consumers' League, said that
I had refused to carry out th provision
of th law. and would not co-operate
with th organisation which she repre
sents. About a year and a half ago
Mrs. Rockey wrota this offlc calling
our attention to several dairies near
Portland which needed attention. I sent
I'nul V. Maris to look after them, and
he put In two days having the evils cor
rected ss dostred and asked for by her
organisation, and I wrote her that her
request had been compiled with and con
ditions mentioned corrected. I also added
that I should be glad at any tlm in th
future to look Into any other cases
which she might suKgest and thnnked
her for calling our attention to th mat
ter. This was the only communication
I ever had with her or with th organi
sation which ah represents. This sn
swer waa sent to Salem today to prove
this statement.
M. S. Sh rook falle, to substantiate
his statement as did Mrs. Rocker, when
the truth Is brought out. Tha case tht
Mr. Schrock speaks of was clearly ex
plained to the committee that th Port
land manufacturer who was charged
the adulteration of lard was warned In
a letter not to aril any more of th lard,
and th record prove that this man was
prosecuted and fined. Th statement of
Paul V. Maria befor th commute that
there were no records when h entered
the offlc Is atvjoltiteiy disproved by tha
facta and truth, as can be demonstrated
to any on who will call at my offlc and
ee th evidence in th records tnem
selves. During the last two years I have had
112 successful prosecutions for violating
fie p'ire food taws of this state, and the
lines have amounted to over 14000. I sm
strictly enforcing the pure food laws of
this state, snd challenge any on to cite
a slncl cas brought to my notice
wherein I have not enforced tha law.
I ask all fair-minded men who are not
prejudiced In this cas to look Into this
matter. Com to my offlc and examine
the written record in ail the cases.
It has been demonstrated by these facts
that th statements of th ex-deputies
of my offlc are without foundation
whatever. As to th motlv of these
statements against riiy offlc and admin
istration. I ahall leave th public to

STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or, Feb. 7.
(Special.) Senator Bowerman's
friends ' In tne House today scored
when they forced from the committee
on revision of laws, of which Fouts Is
chairman, Bowerman's bill providing;
ror an Assistant Secretary of State.
Tha motion calllns; for this bill from
the committee waa made by McKlnney,
and on motion of Thompson the measure
was mane a special order for 10 o'clock
tomorrow.
By this move Ilowrrman's friends se
cure consideration of the Bowerman
Mil by the House In advance of a aim
liar measure on th same subject in
troauced by Kepresentatlve Derby, a
Democrat. The Bowerman bill provide
mat tn Assistant Secretary of Stat
shall receive an annual salary of 12400,
and In the absence of the Secretary
shall assume In every respect the du
ties of that officer. Including sitting- as
a member of th Stat Board.
Opposed to thl bill. Representative
Derby propose one providing for th
validation of all official acts performed
POSITION I office during tha absence of Secretary
of state Benson from the state, and
conferring on the chief clerk the right
to continue to perform those duties in
th absence of his chief.
Authority Not Given. t
Vnder th Derby bill, however, th
chief clerk, while In other ways dis
charging the duties of the Secretary
of State In his absence, is not clothed
with authority to sit as a member of
the State Board and participate In Its
deliberations with a vote.
By an oversight on the part of Bow
erman's friends In the House his bill en
second reading was permitted to go to
the committee on revision of laws. It
was intended to send It to th Judiciary
committee, which is dominated by Bow
erman's friends, end from which a fa
vorable report could be depended upon.
But th friends of the Eastern Oregon
Senator were on the alert today and se
cured the recall of the bill from Fouts'
committee before ninny members of th
House knew what they were voting.
When McKlnney offered his motion
Fouts responded by saying that the
committee waa merely holding the Bow
erman and the Derby bllla until both
could be considered together. McKln
ney insisted on his action, which pre
vailed by a decisive vote, and tha Bow
erman bill was forced from the commit
tee and immediately mad a special or
der. Foots' Step Disliked.
Bowerman's friends In the House wer 1
dissatisfied with th action of Fouts,
particularly In view of the fact tha
a majority of the committee favored th
Bowerman bill. Holls. Neuner and Pe
terson, of the committee, for several
days had been prepared to make
majority report on the bill, whll
Fouts and Derby, the other members
of th committee, war opposed to th
Bowerman measur and favored th
Derby bill.
"V hav been charged with play
lug politics in the consideration of these
two bills." said Holls today, "but there
la absolutely no Justification for It-
Two other members of the commute
and I favor the Bowerman bill, because
we believe It Is necessary. It Is ap
parent that there Is need for som
constituted authority to act In the ab
sence of th Secretary of State in all
official matters. a are also of th
opinion that soma provision should be
mad for a third member of the Stat
Board. That provision is mads in th
Bowerman bill."
N Foes Caught Asleep.
From th tlm It was Introduced, th
Bowerman bill has been opposed by
Governor West snd State Treasurer
Kay. who were 'disposed to favor the
Derby bill, which did not confer on tha
proposed Assistant Secretary or btate
the right to sit as a member of th
Stat Board. Th so-called "adminis
tration" forces In th House, under th
leadership of Fouts. were simply caught
napping today and the Bowerman
forces slipped one over on them.
Friends of Bowerman In the House
are confident they have mustered suf
flclent strength in tha House to pass
the bill tomorrow. They deny that there
Is any politics in tha measure, which
they Insist only makes provision to re
lieve a situation that seriously concerns
th proper administration of the bus!
ness of the state.

One of the Most Important tVneetloa
to Consider la the Search for
Happlneas and Health.
The burning question to you Is.
"Are you getting out of life all th
pleasure and the health you are en
titled toT" If not. why not?
No matter whether every organ and
member of your body Is in a sound
state of health and strength, if your
stomach Is In any way disordered, you
are not going to be "yourself." Tou
are going to be a worried, out-of -sorts,
nervous or sullen Individual, whose ac
tions will reflect your conditions Inside,
and people will naturally avoid you.
The world wants to smile and be
cheerful, and unless you are cheerful
and smile," at lea;t occasionally, you
will have few friends, fewer oppor
tunities, no success, and you will go
down In defeat defeated by dyspepsia,
and a bad stomach.
A good and thorough digestion has
a quick, wonderful reaction upon the
brain. Tou must have noticed It many
times, for the brain and stomach are as
Intimately connected as a needle and
its thread, one can hardly be used to
advantage without the other. If your
stomach is slow and lazy in digesting
your food. It will produce at once a
slow, lazy and cloudy Influence upon
your brain. Mark It! If your stomach
haw absolutely quit work, and fermen
tation is poisoning your vitals as a re
sult, surely your brain Is going to be
sluggish and correspondingly depressed.
No one need tell you that.
But why continue to suffer all the
miseries and torments that a disor
dered stomach brings you?
If your stomach can not digest your
food, what will? Where's the relief?
Where's the cure?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ore the
relief and the cure. Why? Because,
ss all stomach troubles arise from In
digestion and because one Ingredient
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able
to thoroughly and completely digest I
3000 grains or any kind of food,
doesn't It stand to reason that these
little Dspepsia Tablets are going to
digest all the food and whatever food
you put Into your stomach? Science
nowadays can digest food without hav
ing to use the stomach for It- And
Stuart' Dyspepsia Tablets are the re
sult of this scientific discovery. They
digest and digest thoroughly and well,
anything and everything you eat.
bo. if your stomach refuses to work
or can t work, and you suffer from

biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn.
irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of
whatever form. Just take one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and see
the difference. It doesn't cost you
much to prove It. Then you can eat

ever you want. If you use these tab
