Although a strenuous effort u made
tonight la the upper Hone of the Leg
islature here to pass the substitute di
rect primary law ever the veto of Gov

of It which, he declared, exposes the
secrecy of the ballot. In that It forces
party declaration at registration for the
primary election.
Potts Scores II a ley.
Senator C. H. Potts, of Kootenai
County, one of the authors of the bill,
bitterly scored Governor Llawley for ve
toing the bill, which he admitted was
pnl In every respect but one. He de
clared that the only reason the veto
power was eiterclsed was because the bill
forces the PfsiocraU In this state to
how their colors and prevents them
from nominating Republicans.
Senator St. Clair, of Bingham" County,
charged the Governor with playing poli
tics and easting aside the best primary
law In existence In the United States.
Poole of FTemont. Democrat, replied the
Republican policy in Idaho Is "to hades
with the people, keep the party Intact."
Kerb of Wallace supported the Gov
ernor m his veto, asserting the measure
Is a sample of the "yellow dog" policy
f the Republicans.
Hawley's Ideas Ridiculed.
In his veto messase Governor Hawley
creed that the bill be amended and the
objectionable declaratory clause stricken
out. for. he asserts, tln abolishment of
the mandatory second choice, the date of
one month early for the election or
from the last of August to the last
Tuesday In July, as well as other fea
tures, should be made law at the pres
ent session.
The Republican Senators tonight
laughed at the recommendations.
The Governor signed the Lewta and
Adams County bill and Clearwater and
Ins. two new counties being created,
and betne given the extra or :4th Sen
ator. Adjournment will take place to
morrow night.

KLAMATH FALLS. Or, March X
rspeciaX George B. Frank, formerly of
Portland but now a resident of Klamath
Falls, and president of the Good Gov
ernment League, was assaulted here a
few alghU ago by two ruffians. They
were put to Eight by the good right
arm of Mr. Frank, although one of them,
had a knife and the other used a billy.
Mr. Frank was oa bis war to town
from his borne to attend a meeting of
the charter committee. When near the
Intersection Of Oplenade street wtth
Main, where business bouses are few
aad travel Is light, he was accosted by
a maa who said:
"Are yoo Mr. Frank T

-There Is a party down here who

Hat suspecting any plot aad It being
right on his way down to ths central

and wtth the words: -Ton bars got too
much to do wtth the Good Government
League and we are going to fix you."
the second man mads a lunge at Frank
with a knife.

.v . k..j a fhla time the first
man to accost hint struck him a blow
on ths arm with a "biny. pot vum as
sailant became alarmed at the fighting
ability of the Good Government League
president and took to his heels. The
wielder of the knife got up and started
to make another dive at him, but the
knife wielder was met with another blow
that floored him. Then ths assailant
jumped to his feet and ran.
Mr. Frank does not believe that ths
assault was through any sanction or In
tervention of anyone of any prominence,
but there has been an effort here on
tba part of two or three members of
the rough element and threats mads to
break up the Good Government League
movement, so he believes that It was a
duo of this crowd who assaulted him.

HAY'S FORCES FIGHT
Paulhamus and Falconer at
Outs at Critical Time.
FOES' SUPPORT NEAR EVEN
Senate Head Talcs Floor to Fight
$6 5,(K0 Armory Fnnd and "Wins
23 to 30 Split May Harm
Administration Measure.
OLTMPIA, "Wash- March 1. (Spe
cial.) Today's session showed for the
first time that the fight between Pres
ident Paulhamus and Senator Falconer
is on In earnest and that the lines of
support are about drawn evenly. The
first skirmish was won oy rri"'
Paulhamus. who took the floor and
opposed Falconer's bill for a 165.000 ar
mory at Everett.
The bill was aeieatea oy a margin
of two votes, the vote being 22 to 20.
Falconer changed his vote berore tne
result waa announced and gave notice
that hs would move to reconsider later.
Following a conference witn tne
Governor. Senator falconer tenaereo
his resignation to President- Paulha
mus tonight as chairman of the ap
propriation committee. He told the
Fenate that the House and Senate con
ference? committee were unable to agree
on the appropriation budget. This.
coming on th heels of the open rup
ture In the Senate in tne arternoon. is
not surprising. A deadlock on the ap
propriation bill and the Insurance code
Is likely to result.
The Senate members refused to ac
cept the House's action In making the
Insurance Commissioner an elective 01
fice Instead of appointive, while the
House committee will not accept the
Senate's amendments to tne Mouse
budget.
The open rupture coming at mis
time Is considered significant, uniy
five working days of the session are
left, with a vast amount of legislation
to dispose of. Both President Paul
hatnuK and Falconer have been leaders
in subjects favorable to Governor Hay
and they are the accredited sponsors
for the admlnlstrat'on line-up that has
remained virtually intact throughout
the session. Now with a pronounced
division in the Senate ranks. It Is ex
pected that the Important measures to
come before the Senate will cause new
and complicated situations.
In face of this situation, the first
question to be considered tomorrow Is
the employes' compensation act under
special order. The two Senate bills
and the Teats bill, already passed In
the House, will be up for considera
tion. Many lumbermen are in the city
tonight urging Senate members to pass
the Teats bill.
According to tlie Cox bill passed In
the senate, the farmers of Washington
will be given the preferential right
only between January 1 and April 1 of
every year to arrange for the purchase
of grain bags manufactured at the
penitentiary at Walla Walla. After
April 1 the bags remaining on hand
may be put on the open market. This
gives wheat-growers of Oregon and
Idaho an opportunity to buy peniten
tiary Racks three months before the
harvest season, at competitive prices.
The principal purpose of the bill is
to put the Jute mill on a profit-making
basis. At present the sacks are sold at
cost of manufacture. The Board of
Control Is authorized to purchase Jute
and other raw material In the open
market and to so conduct the business
that It will be abje to meet competi
tion of the foreign-made sacks. The
product of the Jute mill Is to consist
of grain bags, oyster tags and wool
bags.
One of the objectionable features of
the present law Is that the farmers
must pay cash In advance for bags.
The bill amends this law so that con
tracts can be entered Into by deposit
ing one-tenth of the purchase price
either In cash or certificates of deposit
at the time of application, the balance
to be paid before delivery and not later
than September 1.
Pleas of Insanity as a defense for
murder and other crimes will not bo a
factor for consideration by Juries, but
will be left solely to the trial Judge,
under provisions of a bill passed in ths
Senate today. The Judge and not the
Jury shall determine the mental condi
tion of the defendant at the time of
the commsslon of the crime and at
the time of the trial.
If the Judge finds that the defendant
is of unsound mind, he shall commit
the prisoner to the Insane ward at the
state penitentiary, there to remain until
the State Board of Pardons considers
him a safe person to be at large.
Before the Senate passed the House
bill making it optional for women to
serve on Juries, Espey of Pacific made
a long speech in behalf of women
voters. He said that since women had
been put on an equality with men In
Washington, he believed they should be
compelled to sit on Juries.

bill went to final passage without a
dissenting vote.
The Southwestern Washington dele
gates are working hard for the Bassett
bill, proposing - a Pacific highway.
When the subject comes up In the Sen
ate an Interesting fight Is expected.
The House passed unanimously the
bill drafted by Governor Hay's Harbor
Commission, outlining a plan for the
creation Of port districts, to be under
the Commissioners, who are to serve
without pay. The measure was drawn
by Puget Sound men and Corporation
Counsel Calhoun of Seattle. The pur
pose Is to allow the creation of harbor
districts along the general lines of
public Improvement districts In cities.
This will make it possible to assess
all property-holders in the county for
Improvements that have been Indorsed
at an election. Representative Mess,
from one of the jvlng County districts
outside of Seattle, opposed the measure
at first, believing farmers would be
taxed unjustly. He withdrew his ob
jections later. Attorney Calhoun indi
cated .that the immediate desire was to
open the way for the construction of a
seawall at Seattle.
The Senate today passed the bill creat
ing White Balmon County of the west

THE retail merchant's telephone serves not
only as a salesman, but also as a purchasing
agent.
When a merchant finds that he is going to run out of
a line of goods, he calls up the wholesaler or factory and
not only orders a new stock, but comes to an agreement
on the price and the time of delivery.
The unexpected needs of his customers can be met
"with the least possible delay.
If the merchant cannot find what he wants in town,
the Long Distance Service of the Bell System brings him
into immediate communication with other cities and other
