TTTE MORXTXG- OREGOXTAX, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 28. 1913. HOLIDAY BREAKS CURRENCY RANKS Democratic Senators Simply Will Not Hold Night Session on Thanksgiving Day. LANE NOT IN, CONFERENCE Oregon Senator Says People of Ore gon Do Not Like Idea However, He Is In Sympathy With Proposed legislation. WASHINGTON, Nov. 87 The lure of the Thanksgiving turkey tonight made the first break In the Democratic Sen atorial programme devised to rush the Administration currency bill through that body before the holidays. After working all day on the measure with m. Bllra attendance the conference of Benate Democrats flatly declined to hold tonight's scheduled session. The conference will meet at 10 'clock tomorrow, however, to begin another day of hurried consideration of the bllL More than one-third of the bill, as reported by Senator Owen and the five other Administration uemo erats on the banking and currency com mittee, was gone over at today s ses Ion. Several amendments of a minor nature, altering the phraseology of the 'bill, were adopted. Republican Amendments Left Oat. In the absence of Senator Hitchcock , kto one presented the amendments he and the five Republican members 01 the committee had framed and the con ference sped through section after sec tlon. Indorsing the Owen-Glass bill practically without change. Senator O'Gorman, who aided Senator Owen in presenting the bill to the conference, predicted that with the exception of the section fixing the number of re gional reserve banks, the bill would be completed before tomorrow night. The number of banks has not been decided on and was passed over at the request of Georgia Senators, who feared that Atlanta might be handicapped If a regional bank were created in some other Southern city, probably New Or leans. Lane Stays Ont of Caucus. It was understood that an attempt might be made to pass a resolution binding the Democrats in the confer ence to support the Administration bill. Senator Hitchcock was expected to re fuse to support the conference bill. Senator Lane, of Oregon, has so far de clined to go Into the conference and Senator Newlands, while attending the conference, has an original plan, which he intends to press on the floor of the Senate. The defeotion of three Democrats might Imperil the majority in the Sen ate, if the Republican lines hold. Senator Explains Objection. Speaking of his refusal to attend the caucus Senator Lane said today: "Caucus legislation Is not approved by the Oregon people, and I don't In tend to be bound by caucus rule. I am not wholly satisfied with either the Hitchcock or the Owen bill, but be lieving speedy currency legislation Is essential. I will support either measure when properly amended, regardless of the source of the amendments.. I am In sympathy with the proposed legisla tion, but believe It should be enacted In public, not In caucus." Senator Lane will speak on the bill In the Senate, after It has been pre sented there for open debate. LIQUOR SELLERS TAKEN W. IT. Wilson and J. C. lewis Pay Knew, Then Disappear. ' FLORENCE.

HOOD RIVER, Or., Nov. 27. (Spe cial.) With.no interest displayed . to day and no petitions of candidacy hnv liiir been filed. Hood River's municipal election next Tuesday bids fair to be tame. According to the charter, candl dates are given until five days before the election to file their petitions, and it was thought when such little inter. man. of the Publio Service Commission, will attend the event.

It la-proposed that the next Wash ington Legislature rectify the mistake of 1 Its predecessor and reimburse Aso tin County for its $40,000 expenditure. and at that time the state probably will accept title in the span. At pres ent the state will do Its part by pur chasing the bonds from Asotin County unless there are higher bidders.
