"The County Commissioners and I have talked the subject over and agreed that we would not change our rules for closing the bridge draws," said Judge Cleeton yesterday, "until It has been decided by the courts that we have no right to keep them closed at proper Intervals. "It we ere arrested for closing the draws. It will bring the matter to a definite settlement, and we win then know what the law Intends. I believe that there ehould be some Justice In closing and opening draws, and that the people who cross draws have somo rights, as well as those who nave vea aela on the river. "When thla subject first came up, 1 considered It carefully, and determined that I would not back down from my. position regarding tha closing of bridge draws at times for the benefit of the neocle who must use the bridges.

It will be my ambition to aid In making; tha matter a political Issue, and personally I shall never support a man for ton greas who Is not pledged to work for a new law regulating tha closing of bridge draws.

Senate Bell Saves Oregon Member From Being Absent at Rollcall, as Itc Is Other Times. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Feb.- 28. Senator Bourne, of Oregron. professes to be a grreat be liever in popular election of Senators, and he recently read an essay In the Senate In support of popular govern ment, but he has given absolutely no real assistance to Senator Borah, of Idaho, In his flrht for the passage of a resolution submitting; this proposi tion to the State Legislatures for rati flcatlon. It is true that on all occasions but one Senator Bourne has managed to get his vote on record, but further than this he has done nothing. When the popular elections resolution has been before the Senate. Mr. Bourne has been conspicuous by his absence. Nobody knows where he goes or what he does, but he certainly does not remain at his -desk and take part In the fight. He ia usually among; the last Senators to vote, though his name Is at the top of the list. He never answers when his name is first called, but manages to creep into the Senate Just before the vote Is announced and asks the secretary to call his name, so that he can be recorded. Then he disappears until the bells again ring; all over the Senate end of tho Capitol, announcing that another roll call has been ordered. But for these bells. Senator Bourne would not be recorded on one-half the roll calls In the Senate, for he does not remain in his seat, does not follow th' proceedings of the Senate, does noTjtnow what Is going; on, nor does he contribute anything to the functions of the Senate, except by recording; his belated vote. It Is true that Senator Bourne did read an essay on popular government, but that waa of no material assistance to the Borah resolution, for nobody listened to it but Senator Chamberlain and Senator La Follette. When the Oregon Senator arose to address the Senate, there waa a general exodus to the lunch room and Mr. Bourne read his remarks to almost empty galleries, and to a still emptier chamber. His colleagues stayed out of politeness, and Senator. La Follette because he ts first lieutenant in the "Salvation Army." and courtesy required that he sljow this amount of respect to his chief. SICILIAN'S EXPLOITS BRING HIM LARGE FOLLOWING. Hero Worshipers In Italy Astonished at Intellect Shown by Cap tured Murderer. ROME. Feb. 26. (Special.) Hero wor shippers In Italy have singled out Salo mons, the notorious Sicilian bandit, aa a recipient of verbal bouquets of admira tion and wonder. This extraordinary brigand, who has now served five years of his life sentence for murder, has st least a dozen assas sinations to his discredit. Owing to a remarkable obliquity of mental vision, he Is proud of his exploits and has hyno tlsed a good many peopls In all ptrts of the country into taking pride In his na tive ability. For Salomone, although barely literate. possesses an amusing vigor of intellect and mental versatility. People who were present at this bandifs trial still talk of the speech he made In his own de fense, for It was characterized by rare eloquence and beauty of expression. Salo mone refused to be called a murderer, styled hirr.eelf a lynch law Judge and ex ecutioner and developed an elaborate ar gument baaed on ethical and sociological grounds. In defence of tha system of pri vate Justice known as the vendetta. - Salomone la passing his time In prison In various Intellectual pursuits. He has recently turned his attention to the field of theology and is now cios.-Iy examining the question of the authenticity of the Gospels. This strings murderer is full of religious enthusiasm and deeirea hla liberty, not for more stiletto exercise, but in order to found a new religion. As a relief from critical examinations of the New Testament, 8alomone writes verses, which, though defective In gram mar and limping In metre, are wonderful, his best piece being an autobiographical poem. But even this tfoes not exhaust his vigor of Intellect, for he has become a draughtsman and caricaturist of no mean ability. Salomone, as a type of the modern crim inal. Is a standing wonder to criminolo gists and mental specialists. No doubt there will be considerable competition for his brain, when it is available In due course, for anatomical study.
