BIG COUNTY FIGHTS
PLEDGED SESSION
Eight Multnomah Legislators
Oppose West's Plan for
Good Roads.
MANY WOULD RAISE VETOES
Governor's Proposal for Solona to
' Forego Paj t Hl Call It) Op.
pose-4 by Some Meeting" of
Lawroskers Seems Remote.
If the attlfods of rmbri of the
Waitnomah County legislates delega
tion la a criterion, by which to Judgs
ether Senators and Representatives
throughout the state, Oovernor West
vlil not call a special sessloa of the Leg
islature. The Oorernor he annoonceil
that before he will aaeemble the Leg
islature In epeclal session he most
have the pledges of a majority of the
members that they will consider only
rood road legislation, refuse to act oa
vetoed bills and will not collect from
the stat the per dtem and mileage
to which they are entitled, agreeing to
pay their own expenses. Only two
members of the Multnomah delegation
Interviewed yesterday are willing; to
subscribe to the conditions proposed
by Oorernor West Those two are
ReoresentatlTee C A- Blgelow and
James Cole.
Of the other members of the delega
tion, some said they would forego tne
consideration of vetoed bills If It was
necessary to obtain a-ood roads legis
lation, but they uniformly objected to
. subscribing to the terms under which
the Oorernor has Intimated he would
call a special session. A few are will
ing to sacrifice their per diem and
mileage and pay their own expenses,
but the gTeat maporlty takes the posi
tion that the Oorernor does not hare
the right to ask them to devote their
time to the business of the state and
at the same time defray their own ex
panses. riittcKi mar -
The feeling prevails among the mem
bers that they should not be asked to
aerve without pay any more than the
Oorernor or any other state official
should refuse to accept from the stats
Ma salary during the time the special
session might continue. There are not
a few who charge that the Governor
le playing politics and for that reason
they are averse to promoting the game.
There le a general feeling among
members of the delegation from this
county that the Governor, through his
veto of the good roads bills passed last
Winter, le personally and directly re
sponsible for the need at this time of
a special session. For this reason they
maintain that any attempt cn the part
st Oovernor Weet to dictate to the law
makers the conditions under which they
may be convened In special session as
well as to undertake to place a limita
tion on the legislation thsy shall con
sider. If called to gather, comes with
bad grace from him.
Ten of the It members of the dele
gation were questioned yesterday as
to their opinion respecting the pro
posed special session and what they
thought of the conditions Imposed by
Oovernor West as the only terms on
which he would call the lawmakers to
gether. Senator D. J. klaiarkey and
Representatives John C Bryant and
Btrpbeu Collins were out of the city.
Representatives E. O. Amine. J. M. Am
brose. Dr. W. X. Oottel and Seneca
Kouts were not seen. Ben Belling, the
president of the Senate, declined to be
Interviewed.
SeiUasT Wltaaelds Talk.
-T have Just returned after an ab
sence of seven weeks." explained Mr.
Felling, "and I do not wish to make
any statement until 1 have an oppor
tunity to Inform myself concerning the
situation and the necessity for the good
roals legislation, for the enactment of
which. I understand, the special ses
sion is demanded.
Other members of the delegation ex
pressed themselves as follows:
H. K. Albee First, last and all ths
time I am for good roads and am will
ing to do what a majority of ths other
members may think advisable to secure
that legislation, A session Is a session
whether It Is a regular or a special
session and ths right of the Legisla
ture should be recognised and exer
cised In ths consideration of bills of
tr preceding session vetoed by the
Oovernor. It is unfair for ths Gover
nor to ask or to expect the legislators
not to consider such disapproved bills
at a proposed special session when
compliance with that request in ef
fect would sustain the vetoes.
Ir. J. K. Locke We ought to have
tha good roads laws. The Oovernor
has no right, however, to ask us to
go to Salem and work for the whole
state without being compensated any
more than the Governor or any otner
state official should be expected to sur
render to the state his salary for ths
same length of time. While I am not
satisfied as to the advisability of con
sidering the vetoed bills of the regu
lar session. I shall not eater Into any
agreement In advance that would place
any unreasonable limitations on my
course during ths proposed session.
Kellaaer Aaralast rteaa-e.
Pan KeUaher If a special session Is
called, the right should be reserved
to the members to taks up such legis
lation aa we think deserving. I shall
not sign any pledge as to the character
of legislation which should be consid
ered to the exclusion of everything
lee. If there should be meritorious
legislation that ought to be passed. It
should be considered and enacted at a
special as well as a regular s ess Inn.
C. W. Nottingham Governor West
played to the grandstand when he ve
toed ths good roads bills enacted at
t& regular eeeslon. Let fcim assume
che responsibility for his own mistake.
X shall agree to no pledge of the Gov
eraor-e dictation.
Oeorge W. Joseph FoUl branches of
las Legislature have the constitutional
right to consider vetoed bills at the
Best ensuing session. P.cce the good
roads bills passed at the 111 session
re included in the large number
vetoed by Governor Weet. they ebonld
la taken p and passed wltk the con
vening of the special session. I am
wllilng to waive the per dlera and mile
age and pay my ewa expenses. I shall
net sign any esrreemsnt touching on
the scope of work to be taken up and
considered at the proposed special eee
slon. Ths people have repoeed sufficient
confidence la us to elect us and I
ittak we are to be trusted.
Teveeel Bllla De-eased! Gensd.
j j. Abbott Ths good roads legis
lation passed at the regular session. In
my oplnloa. waa good for a beginning.
The real purpose of the Oovernors veto
sf this legislation was to make the tax
peyere believe he was effecting a big
saving of their money. Aa to the vetoed
bills, they shouid be considered. If
the necessary two-thirds of the mem
bers of the two bouses favor thess
cnaasorea, there la no reason why tbay
should not be enacted notwithstanding
tha Governor's veto. If ws hava a spe
cial session and these bills are not
considered, it will be Impoeslble at any
other time to take them up. So far as
ths mileage and per diem of members
are concerned. I am willing; to serve
without pay from the state.
C- A. Blgelow I would have a short
session one of ten hours. If possible.
U would be a good thing to pledge
every member to consider only good
roads legislation. There already Is
manifested an Intention on the part of
different interests to ask for appropria
tions of the sneclal session. I would
not even consider the vetoed bills of
the regular session. Although a few of
tbem may be deserving, most or intra
are not of any great consequence end
would serve only to prolong the life
of the session.
Vetoes Regaraed as Error.
W. H. Chatten I am vitally In
terested In good roada and think it waa
a serious mistake for the Governor to
veto ths measuree passed at the regular
session. I am wllllns- to agree not to
consider the vetoed bllla however. If
It Is necessary to Insure the enactment
of the good roads bills but I think It
would be Impossible for us to convene
and not take lip the consideration of
other matters of legislation.
W. J. Clemens 1 was a member of
the special committee that revised for
final passage the road bills enacted at
the regular session. They were not
all that we wanted but there Is no as
surance that the bills recently drafted.
If enacted, would give greater satis
faction. I shall make no pledges to
anybody except the people who elected
ma The qnjestion of whether the mem
bers shall be paid for their time by
the stats Is pleayunlnh. The trouble Is
that too much politics Is played by
some of our stats officials.
James Cole I am really too bury to
spare tha time required for a speolal
session but am willing to do, so If as
sured that only good roads legisla
tion will bo considered. I am willing
to pledge myself to the consideration
of that legislation only, feeling that I
cannot give the necessary time for con
sidering general legislation.

LEGAL QUESTION" MARK.
Colored Man Declares He Waa
Forced to Walk Blore Than Mile
When Arrested.
Upon complaint ef McCanta Stewart,
a negro attorney, warrant was Issued
from ths Justice Court yesterday for
the arrest of B. O. Marsh, a policeman,
accused of assault and battery, and at
the eame time the attorney filed a com
munication with Mayor Rushlight, ask
ing for ths attention of the Executive
Board In ths case. .
According to Stevrart be waa on his
way home when, at Russell street and
Union avenue, he stopped at the door
of a restaurant to exchange pleasan
trles with frlenda who wars having a
banquet Inside. Aa he did so ' Marsh
cams around ths corner and told him
to "cut It out os ho would be pinched."
"Ton can't do that.- Stewart aaya he
replied. "as I have been doing nothing
wrong." Then, be asserts. Marsh pushed
him Into ths gutter and placed him un
der arrest.
Oa account of the distance from the
station Marsh forced his prisoner to
walk to Union and Holladay avenues,
nearly a mile, despite bis pleadings
that he had an artificial leg. and hla
request that he be allowed to call a
taxlcab and communicate with his wife
as he passed hie home.
At ths station Stewart was Informed
that no one but Judge Taswell could
Dx hie bail, and be was allowed to
engage a taxlcab and. escorted by Ser
geant Klenlen. went to the home of
the magistrate. As Judge Taswell bad
been up all night fixing ball oa persons
caught In a raid of the North End, be
slept profoundly through many ring
ings of bis door bell, and Stewart was
taken back to the station with every
prospect of being locked up over Sun
day. Captain eller finally strained
his authority and released the prisoner
on his recognisance. When Marsh ap
plied to Deputy City Attorney Sullivan
for a complaint It was refused, and
Stewart was not brought Into court.
Marsh asserts that Stewart had been
drinking and that be used no mors
force than was necessary. Stewart Is
s graduats of tne law department of
the University of Minnesota, and after
ward attended Booker Washington's
Tuskegee Institute, where he learned
the printing trade. He prectleee fre
quently In Municipal Court, and Is said
to be the most popular member of his
race in the city.- Marsh has an excel
lent record as a police officer, having
been long associated with Patrolman
Maddsn on the North Knd beat.
TANK RULING BACK-SLAPS
Councnmen Who Voted for Ordi
nance Fay Measure Obnoxious,
"T will never allow any oil com
pany to put tanks In my yard. If there
Is any legal means of stopping ouch
action." said Councilman Monks, of the
Klrst Ward, yesterday. "I have half a
notion to Introduce an ordinance re
pealing the provisions of that ordi
nance passed by the Council a short
time ago, which I oonelder was all
wrong; I voted for It simply because
I felt that the special committee was
recommending something good for the
dry. I am now convinced that It was
wrong."
The Guild's Lake district, where) the
City Council end Mayor Rushlight said
by ordinance that oil tanks can be
built, lies In Mr. Monk's district. Ths
ordinance now In effect and which re
quires ths removal of oil tanks from
the East Side central district within
three months from its passage, was
carried by unanimous vote of the
Council. 6everal of ths members now
say they are sorry thsy voted for It.

ROAD BILLS ARE UPHELD
C. T. PRALL BATS THEY DIFFER
FROM ACTS VETOED.
Head of Oregon Highway Associa
tion Predicts West's Approval.
Med ford Suggested Session.
C T. Prail. president of the, Oregon
Association for Highway Improvement,
la of tha opinion that tha good roads
bills drafted at a meeting of the spe
cial committee appointed by Oovernor
West will meet with Uva Executlvea
approval In discussing recent de
velopments be said:
-The Question of a special session of
ths Legislature waa first suggested by
ths Medford Coramerolal Club and
other Jackson County people, and ap
peared to bs more or lesa of a sectional
subject. I happened to be present when
the Governor made me mucn-quoieu as
sertions regarding tha limitations he
would put on a call for a special ses
sion, and my Impression la that the
statement was made because of the
tact that up to that time only Jackson
County had been heard from. If the
ri.mend were made by other counties
also It Is possible that the Oovernor
might modify conditions materially.
"In regard to the bllle proposed by
the state highway committee, which
met in Portland last week It has been
said that these are Identical with those
passed by the last Legislature and
afterwards vetoed by the Governor. On
this point I have only to say that a
careful reading of the new measures
will show thst they dirrer in many es
sential particulars from those Intro
duced at the last session.
"Last Winter a Highway Commission
bill was Introduced which provided for
a commission of -three members who
were empowered to appoint a Highway
Commissioner. The new bill which we
propose eliminates the commission en
tirely and establishes Instead a High
way Department whose chief officer Is
tha Highway Commissioner. This of
ficial is to receive his appointment
from the Governor, and Is directly re
sponsible to h'm.
There are various other differences
which make the new bill better than
the old one. One point emphasised in
both bills Is the necessity of central
authority and state control over all
publto highways which sre paid for
wholly or In part by ths state.
"The new bill providing for state aid
differs from that Introduced in the last
Legislature In practically every es
sential particular. The manner of rala
ing the proposed highway fund Is new,
ae Is tha method of apportionment
among tha vartoue counties.
-Two convict labor bllla were pre
sented to ths last Legtslaturs. and on
these much of the fight centered.
Cnder our present plan no legislation is
proposed whatever along this line, the
committee being disposed to leave the
convict labor problem wholly In the
Governor's bands for ths time being."
