INTERSTATE BRIDGE
WINS FIRST ROUND
Senate Indorses House Reso
lution for Committee to
Collect Data.
DIMICK FIGHTS PROPOSAL
JUlIw Is Ginm Ble Ovation When
lie Champions Movement and Be
quests Harmony, in Working
for Vpbnlldlng of State.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or Jan
!. (Special.) Multnomah won the
first round In its battle for legislative
consideration of an v Interstate bridge
between Washington and Oregon over
the Columbia River, when the Senate
Indorsed a House resolution providing
for a committee to meet with th
Washington Leeislature. the vote being
S4 in favor of the resolution to six
asainst it.
The resolution came, back from the
Senate committee on resolutions with
two reports, Moser, Butler and Calkins
wending In the majority Teport in
favor of the junket and Dimlck a
minority report against It. The reso
lution provides that a committee of
two from the Senate and three from
the House shall meet with a, like
committee from the Washington Leg
Islature to confer on the question
of the advisability of the bridse and
the ways and means to secure the de
sired result.
The junket apparently Is to take on
the aspect of merely an Investigating
committee, to make a report, and is not
considered even as going In an advisory
capacity in respect to the balance of
the Legislature, save only as far as
the data collected are concerned.
Dlmlrk Opru Fight.
DImick opened a fight on the resolu
tion by moving substitution of the
minority for the majority report.
"This 1 not the time for the bridge.
he shouted in advocating the adoption
of the minority report "Sometime In
the future we may wish to build such
a structure, bat the people are not ripe
for It. I have been told that this agi
tation comes from a great many real
estate men In Portland who desire to
see certain properties opened up for
their personal gain. This resolution Is
an entering wedge for an enormous
appropriation for this great bridge. By
far the majority of the people are
against this move.'
Perkins took exception to some of
the statements of DImick. He asserted
that he bolieves It Is up to the Senate
to secure all the Information possible
on the subject, and that he, as chair-
main of the ways and means commit
tee. believed that he was entitled to
have the Information.
"Certainly a bill Is coming up to
carry an appropriation for the bridge,"
said Perkins.
Butler agreed with DImick that the
people of the state may not be ready
for the bridge, ' but he believed that
the near future may hold such a bridge
in store and declared that the lnforma
tion should be gathered and for that
reason he favored the resolution.
Carson questioned the constitutional
ity of the appropriation. If one were
to be made, but stated that Inasmuch
as the Washington Legislature had
already appointed a committee for the
conference as a matter of courtesy he
would favor the bill.
Miller Champions Plan.
After DImick had again entered a
strenuous objection to the people of
the whole state even paying for the
preliminaries, which he declared should
be paid for by Portland and Multno
mah County, who expect to derive the
benefit from the proposed structure.
Miller, of Linn, Tecetved a loud ova
tion, the first since the session opened,
when he championed the proposed
plan.
"The question of locality should not
enter into debates of this character in
the Senate," urged Miller. "We should
take the broader view and work to
gether. Portland is a rreat city and
we cannot build up one part of Oregon
but we build up the rest of the state."
Joseph suggested that the Senator
from Clackamas was probably opposed
to the -bridge because he -and his con
stituents mixht be disturbed by the
ntkled people who would pass along
the highway through Clackamas
County.
On tho question of the adoption of
the minority report, a vote no being in
favor of the resolution, the minority
report lost by a vote of 28 against to 6
for. The same vote, only reversed, was
recorded on the resolution. Those who
favored tho minority report were:
DImick. llollis. McColloch. Bagsdale,
J. C. Smith and Stewart.
President Malarkcy has not appoint
ed the members of the Senate who will
be placed as members of the committee,
but will probably announce their names
tomorrow.
OLYMPI.V SENATE BACKS PI.AX
fpper Jlon to Name Committee to
Study Bridite Feasibilty.
OLYMPJA. Wash.. Jan. IS. (Special.)
The Senate of the Washington Leg
islature today adopted a joint resolu
tion providing for the appointment of
a committee of two Senators and three
Representatives to confer with a like
committee of the Oregon Legislature
on the feasibility of the proposed Pa
cific highway briilge over the Columbia
lEiver between Portland and Vancouver.
The resolution was introduced by
Senator French, of Clark County, who
has a bill In course of preparation pro
viding for a I500.000 appropriation for
the state's part of the bridge. The com
mittee will be appointed by the Lieutenant-Governor
and the Speaker of
the House, the former to appoint two
memhers cf the road's committeo of the
Senate and the latter three memhers
of the roads committee of the House.
It is planned to have the committees
of the two states to meet in the near
future at Vancouver and go over the
proposed project in detail. The Wash
ington committee will report hack to
the roads committees of the House and
Scimtee . with recommendations for or
against the bridge.
The roads committees will hold a
Joint session and make recommenda
tions to send to a joint meeting of the
Legislature.
The resolution was passed the Sen
ate by unanimous vote and was ordered
transmitted to the House Immediately.
It will come before that body tomor
row morning and it is believed will
meet with no opposition.
Senator French in introducing the
resolution said he considered it essen
tial for committees to look over the
bridge project and investigate its feas
ibility and need.
Portland und Vancouver have gone
to a great deal of expense in making
preliminary surveys," he said, "and they
ark that wo investigate. Oregon has
"requested us to appoint this commit
tee and they will appoint a similar
one. With the report o tho committee
we will be in better shape to consider
an appropriation bill which I will bring
up to help pay for the construction 01
the bridge."
. It la the opinion of Senator French
that the Legislature of Washington
will appropriate Its share of the cost
of building the bridge.
"1 expect some opposition," he said
today, "but I do not believe it will be
strong enough to prevent the appro
priation. I believe In the bridge proj
ect, and Intend to fight for it to the
end. I have much support in both the
Senate and the House.
Senator Falrchild will offer a bill In
a few days providing for the raising
of the state s share of the bridge ap
propriation by a special tax levy. He
will propose a quarter mill special tax
for two years, which will raise J500,-
000.
Extension Work Funds Sought.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, -On. Jan.
18. (Special.) One appropriation of
135.000 and another of $6000 is carried
in a bill which was Introduced in the
Senate today by Smith, of Coos and
Curry counties, and by Thompson
Jointly. The bill provides for exten
sion work of the Oregon Agricultural
College In co-operation with the vari
ous counties of the state.
BUILDING REPORT MADE
STATCS OF STATE WORK DE
SCRIBED BT OFFICERS.
Additional Appropriations Needed
for Supreme Court, Library and
Feeble-Minded Institute.
SALEM. Or., Jan. 16. (Special.)
Heport of the progress made on the
various public buildings of the state
was completed yesterday and is now
n the hands of the State Printer be
ing prepared for submission to the
legislative assembly.
The report is divided Into sections
devoted to the Board of Public Building
Commissioners, the trustees of the
Eastern Oregon Insane hospital, the
work of State Architect W. C. Knight
on, and the biennial estimates of
W. D. McXary. superintendent of the
Pendleton asylum.
The Public Building Commissioners,
consisting of the Governor, Secretary
of State, and State Treasurer, report
the general progress made on the state
projects, commend the policy of em
ploying a state architect and strongly
praise the work of W. C. Knighton,
state architect. In the past two years.
They show that the employment of
a regular state architect has not only
resulted in much better service in the
state building but has also saved to
the state the sum of $14,324. or 40 per
cent over and above Mr. Knighton's
salary. This Is In comparison with the
old system of hiring the architect at
random, and paying the usual 5 per
cent commission.
This report refers to the new East
ern Oregon Insane Hospital as the best
and most modern plant of Us kind west
of Chicago.
In noting the progress made On the
new Supreme Court and State Library,
now nearing completion, just east of
the Capitol, it is shown that the board
has loked to the future and has pro
vlded for the Inevitable enlargement
of these departments, but that ad
ditional appropriation will be needed
for completion.
Mr. Knighton s estimates show that
the girl's dormitory at the Feeble
Minded Institute will require an ad
ditional appropriation of $4146.98. and
also seta out In detail the expenditures
of the state funds on the new insane
hosDital. By this, the buildings and
equipment cost the state $437,881.05.
and the land Including litigation and
improvements I76.80a.36.
Superintendent McNary's report sup
plements this and estimates the budget
for his institution for the ensuing
biennial term. Altogether $402,849 is
asked for, which Includes malntalnance
for two years, as well as to cover the
cost of the many Improvements neces
sary to put the plant In flrst-clasn
running orier and to make It as near
ly self-sustaining as may be.

Father of Bill to Make County Clerks
Chairmen, of Court Says Effi
ciency Will Be Result.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem. "Or., Jan. 1.
(Special.) That Representative Lat
onrette's bill to abolish county courts,
give every county at least one Circuit
udue and make the County clerK
hairman of the County Board, will
pass seems more than a possibility.
There are many lawyers in coin
Senate and House, and they are en
thusiastic In their commendation of
the bill, while as yet no one has been
found who will oppose It.
Inasmuch as the bill would give each
county one Circuit Judge In lieu of a
County Judge, making the County
Clerk chairman of the County Board.
it eliminates as many officers as there
are Circuit Judges In the state at
present.
My bill, if it becomes a law. saiu
iepresentatlve Latourette today, "will
ot only be a gain in economy, our a
reater gain in efficiency. It will im
prove all four of the departments it
affects. It will make the County
Clerk's office more effective. The Clerk
Iready knows more than anyone else
bout the business of the county, aDd
his added duty will give him even
greater knowledge in this regard. The
;ounty Board win aiso gain in em
iencv bv reason of the more intimate
co-operation with the Clerk, perhaps
the greatest gain will oe in tne mail
ing of the transaction ot proDaie ousi-
leBii more effective, as better juages
will be provided for this business by
nlncinc- it under the jurisdiction of the
Circuit Court. My law will also make
ha Circuit Courts more ettective oy
giving one to each county."
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or Jan. 16.
(Special.) Urging on Congress the
need that the ports and waterways of
Oregon be improved, Senator Hollls In
troduced the following resolution today
In reference to development that will
follow the opening of the Panama
Canal:
Whereas, the completion of the Panama
Canal emphasizes the Importance of the im
provement of very harbor on our coast Una
from the northern boundary of the State of
California to the Columbia River; and.
Whereas, there are many' bays along the
Pacific Coast capable of becoming splenam
harbors, particularly those of Tillamook
Hit. Yaa'ulna. Bav. Coos Bay an.J others.
each of which, with a comparatively small
cost to the Federal Government, could be
made ports or entry for all coastwise vessels
as well as those of deeper draft; and.
Whereas, tributary to these harbors are
millions of feet of lumber in our matchless
forests as well as iargs sections of agri
cultural land capable ot producing great
harvests, to say nothing of the products of
our mines and our streams, all of which
must reach the markets of the world through
these channels: and.
Whereas, each of these harbors are now
in direct rail communication with other
parts of the world whereby a proper dis
tribution of commarce and the aasemblylng
of the products may be maintained; tnere
fnr he It
Resolved. That the Senate, the. House
concurring, memorialize our Representatives
In Washington ana request tnem to earnestly
ur Congress to Improve these ports and
waterways and secure necessary and ample
appropriations for the Immediate Improve
ment of these harbors that will open them
for at least all coastwise vessel so that tha
products of our forests, our mines and our
soil may tnereoy reacn tne wunQB hiici

rilODVCE MEASURE PASSED
Senate Defeats Dimick's Amendment
to Automobile Law.
SALEM, Or., Jan. 16. (Special.)
One bill was passed In the Senate to
day and one bill was defeated. The
bill passed was that introduced by
Butler, providing for the regulation of
the tare and deduction In sacks when
certain produce is sold. This bill
came up two years ago and was passed,
but mysteriously disappeared.
The bill that failed of passage was
one introduced by Dimick. amending
the motor vehicle law. The law now
apparently requires that all farm
wagons and other vehicles on public
highways shall be equipped with two
front lights and a rear red light.

SIDELIGHTS OF OREGON LEGISLATURE
THE Senate committee on Federal
relations has so far been the
busiest committee In that house. Joseph
was relegated to the chairmanship of
the committee by President Malarkey.
It fell to the lot of the committee
to go over half a dozen resolutions
coming from different sources on the
question of enforcing laws against

Colonel W. G. D. Mercer, of Eugene,
the Senate sergeant-at-arms. has two
pet hobbles, one is Abraham Lincoln
and the other a thermometer which
has been suspended from a chandelier

or for another who thinks it is too
cold.
Joe Sin;er. who has been appointed
assistant sergeant-at-arms of ' the

proud of his past official record, but

Surreptitious moves on the part of

by some of his friends emerging from
