After a heated debate on the county
unit bill which consumed the entire afv
moon, the Snili passed th measure
without amendment. Senator Ruth, of
Thurston, fought the bUl on the ground
that It u too aweenlns:. Although
Senators Nichols and Collins, of Klna.
Jnen of Pierce and Chafer of Spokane
offered amendment, the administration
linTrp remained firm throushout the
d'-u.!on and the bill was carried by
:i to k . .
Senator Metralf. one of the leaders ot
the "dry." moved the previous question
Immediately at the close of the readier
of the bill for the purpose of cutting oil
dbate. but Senator Collins waa on the
floor at the san-.e time and President
Paulhsmn permitted him to offer an
am-nrtment exempting the second and
tnlrd-cln cities from the county-unit
plan. Following this IncldenU Senator
Kuth es-lstmel:
"I serve notice right now that If they
are golr.g to tprlng this Rax rule right
at the start, i n move i-r
tion at the proper time. We won t stand
for that sort of thing-."
Ootaidr Control Frarod.
1 am In favor of resisting saloons
In the rlrht way.- .aid Collins, ' but If
you allow this bill to pass In the way
you have, you will permit the people In
outlying territory to control the towns.
Tou will be forcing on the towns which
I have Included In my amendment some
thing they do not want. Tou can t Ret
respect for law or proper enforcement
of law In this manner. I simply want
these towns to be allowed to diclde this
question for themselves.
TRe Collins amendment was lost py
14 to :. Senator Nichols moved to
amend by making" second, th'rd and
fourth-class cities separate ""Its. His
amendment was lost. 21 to li.
Fenator Ruth moved to .amend i7
striking out the provision which would
prevent the lamer cities which have
already voted dry from reconsidering
their vote. ,,
-The words I want to strike out.
said Ruth, "would allow the people
of Belllnaham and Everett to vote
ae-aln on the question. In fact, that
whole provision was Inserted by the
authors of this bill for the sole and
deliberate purpose of keeping these
elites from doing what they now want
"Those cities have gone "dry" and they
are heartily tired of It. I say right here
now that the entire object Is to keep
those peop.e from a chance to vote.
Everett Is Satisfied- 1
-The. people of Bverett don't care
whether the rentleman . throws a
brainstorm or not." shouted Falconer,
whose home la at Everett. "They voted
dry" and they knew what they wanted.
"Tes. and the rentleman from Thurs
ton came down there and made a speecn
and he did not change them, Inter
jected Senator Brown, of Whatcom.
Toe provtslon these people have In
jected In their bill." snapped Senator
Nichols. Is in keeplnr with the general
Plan they offer, "heada I win. tails you
loee."
The amendment was lost by ! to 14.
a rollcall having been demanded from
all parte of the Houee. each side want
ing to put the other on record.
Senator Shaefer. of Spokane, offered
an amendment to strike from the bill
the clause preventing an appeal from a
Superior Court ruling on the validity of
signatures attached to a petition for
local option election, but the motion
lost.
IWr rates In Danger.
-t move to strike out the clause
which would prevent the sale of any
substitute tor an Intoxicating liquor."
ssld Senator Rosenhaupt. of Spokane.
"I don"t know what the purpose was
foe putting that tn. That would prevent
the sale of many delightful beverage,
soft drinks and many kinds of near
beer, none of which comes within the
view of this act. at least In the estima
tion of the Government Pure Food Bu
reau. We have a number of thriving
factories In this state manufacturing
these beverage that are In no way
harmful."
"1 am surprised at tie gentleman
from Spokane." said Falconer, who evi
dently referred to the fact that Rosen
haupt was a signer of the bill. "Near
beer and such things are what we want
to get at."
"Oh. wells If that Is the way the gen
tleman feels about It. I will withdraw
the amendment." replied Rosenhaupt.
smiling in the direction of hie co-author.
Senator Jensen moved to amend by
striking out the clause excepting the
sale of "preparations compounded by
reentered pharmacists, the sale of
which would not subject them to the
payment of a special Federal liquor li
cense." Prog View Told.
"Some of the gentlemen may be sur
prised at my making this amendment,
aatil Senator Jensen, who Is anv of fleer
cf the Washington State Association of
rrugatsta Til tell you right now. the
druaglsts don"t want this llouor busl

and run these men out and then run
them Into the drugstores. No. sir. the

Senator Ruth offered toemend by
substituting nve gmain
words "one quart" In the paragraph
specifying the amount of liquor allowed
to be taken by one man for bis own
use from "wet" to "dry" territory.
Til tell you why I want that to be
ttrm gallons." shouted Ruth. "Say this
county goes 'dry and I need some
liquor. ji i - -

as many trips as i wui m .

This bill would make some of the
best men In Washington break the law.
Ml tell yon right now Ml break the
law and 111 do something to the man
who attempts to go In mv private
house and stop me. I hold that I have
a right to bring Into my private house
whatever liquor I may want solely for
myself and that no man has a right to
prevent me. If that is the kind of
stuff you are going to try to put over
us. let's see you do It."
Stevenson moved to substitute one
gallon for five gallons, and Ruth ac
cepted the substitute motion.
Senator Ruth's speech outlining the
necessity he s under to uee liquor for
medicinal purposes was perhsps the
most dramatic Incident of the session.
Ruth has been In 111 health for several
weeks, and it la well known that he Is
under the constant direction of Ills
physician, and many Of his friends have
been fearful that he would overtax hie
strength In debate. Probably due to the
Senators' personal knowledge of Ruth's
case, the vote to permit a man to carry
one gallon of liquor Into dry territory
made the first serious Inroad on the
co-authors' combination. However, the
amendment lost by a vote of 10 to 1.
and the bill passed without change.
Ruth referred to the failure of the
local option law In several states. In-
