STATE LABOR HEAD THREATENS ARREST Commissioner Hoff Says He Will Not Make Steiner Goat on 8-Hour Act. WEST SAYS 'ENFORCE LAW' Corrrnor Declares Readjustment of Shifts at Institution and Creation of Deficiencies Wotted Be Nco esyarjr Olcott Silent. SALEM. Or., Dec JS. (Special.) Declaring- that ho believed the recent oolnlon of the Supreme Court placed all employe of state institutions under the application of the eight-hour law Labor Commissioner Holf said tonight that he would have members of the Mate Board of Control arrested, if It became necessary, to obtain a com prehensive adjudication of the proposi tion. The members of the Board are Governor West. Secretary of State Olcott and State Treasurer Kay. Mr. Hoff further declared that Inas much as Dr. R. E. Lee Steiner. su perintendent of the State Insane Asylum, was acting under the instruc tions of tho Board of Control, and had been arrested and convicted of violat ing the law. he did not propose to make the superintendent "the goaf in other caaea. Mr. Hon Is of the opinion that Governor West believes the opinion applies to all classes of labor in the Institutions. The Governor In an interview Im mediately after the decision was ren dered, declared that there was nothing to do but enforce the law, and said a readjustment of shifts at the institu tions and the creation of deficiencies would be necessary. Secretary of State Olcott has not expressed an opinion and Stat Treasurer Kay and Attorney-General Crawford think the opinion may apDlr to employes performing only manual labor. Should a majority of tha members of the Board hold that the opinion applies to all classes of labor In the institu tions further arrests would rot be accessary, and the work of readjust ment would b- started at once. This. ment would b started at once. Tnis. however, would mean an added expense of hundreds of thousands of dollars an- nually nnd the creation of lare;e deflrl- anctes at once.

It is my duty to know It and not the law Into effect. I am waiting; k - Knanrl (a meet, and then if It falls to apply the law as I interpret it. further arrests will be made. No. I do not see any reason for arresting Dr. Steiner again. He is only acting under the Instructions of the Board. There Is no use to make him "the goaf acaln. If necessary to put the law Into operation I may try to have members of the Board arreste4. The opinion of the Supreme Court is plain, and I think there Is no doubt that it ap plies to ail classes of labor In the in stitutions but the superintendents. -I have no reason to believe that the Attorney-Ueneral will disagree with me in the Interpretation of the opinion, hut if he shrfuld. it would be my duty to employ other counsel. I have talked with scores of persons about the law. and onlv one roan said I was doing wrong in trying to enforce it.

SALEM. Or., Dec. 29. (Special.) Holding that all registration books should be closed May 1, and be opened as soon as possible after the primary election for registration for the gen eral election, Attorney-General Craw ford today. In an opinion, written at the request of Stacy M. Russell, Coun ty Clerk of Lane County, puts what is by many Balem attorneys believed to be the proper construction upon the election laws which were somewhat clouded by the decision of the Supreme Court that tha permanent registration law Is unconstitutional. According to the opinion 14 days will be allowed to prepare the precinct reg isters and forward them to the various precincts for the primary. The perma nent registration law. according to the Attorney-General. In fixing the pri mary election for the third Friday in May. repeals all acts and parts of acta in conflict with It OverslBht Declared Palpable. The opinion says: "Chapter 208 has the effect of repeal ing all portions of sections 1451 and 3453 which would conflict therewith. While said section S451 provides that every elector In the state should reg ister between the first Monday in Jan uary and May 15. biennially, and sec tion S453 provides that the County Clerk In each county, between the first Monday in January, 1906, and 6 o'clock P. M. of May 15, 1906, and between the same dates and hours biennially there after, shall register all electors resid ing In the county, and providing fur ther that the County Clerk shall not register any elector during -the period beginning on the 64th day and ending on the 41st day Immediately preced ing the general biennial June elec tion. It would seem that the closing of the registration books on the 54th day was for the purpose of giving the County Clerk sufficient time to pre pare the precinct registers, and send them to the precincts in time for the primary nominating election to be held on the 45th day before the general elec tion, and It Is Just as necessary now that tho precinct registers shall be prepared and sent to the precincts prior to the day of the nominating election as It ever was, nd the fact that the Legislature changed the day upon which the primary election shall s.
