N. Day Favors Advance Meeting to Dissect New Acts Legislators Plan. TO SAVE TIME IS INTENT Assemblage of Senators and Repre sentatives Also May Servo to Settle Speakership Candidacy--Another In Field. A convention of all members of the Legislature from Multnomah County Senators as well as Representatives probably will be held early next week. The object of the meeting- la to as semble all the ideas that now are con juring in the minds of the Multnomah delegation and determine which of them are worthy of being drafted into bills. It will remain for. the Legisla ture as a whole, then, to say whether these bills shall become laws. I. N. Day, a holdover Senator from Multnomah, is father of the plan for a preliminary convention. He has sug gested the idea to other legislators. They approve it. While no formal call has been issued it is probable that Sen ator Day will be active in that direc tion before the week ends. "There's a whole lot of business that we can dispose of before the Legisla ture gets together," said Senator Day yesterday. "We ought to meet and dis pose of it. If any of the boys have any legislative programme in mind they can outline their plans and get them ready for submission immediately after the session opens. Preparation Urged as Savine. "We ought to have a lot of proposed legislation all ready on the opening day. Tho preliminaries or organiza tion ought to be disposed o in advance. Then we could devote our whole time to sensible and economical business for the state." Mr. Day believes, too, that a conven tion of the entire Multnomah delega tion will serve largely to settle the Speakership controversy. It is said that the up-state Speakership candi dates are waiting expectantly in the hope of election through the failure of Multnomah uniting upon someone. In addition to those already in the field it is understood that E. E3. Blanchard, of Grants Pass, is considering himcelf a possible dark horse. Plowden Stott, a member of the Multnomah delegation, proposes to in troduce a bill that will prescribe more severe penalties against .the sale of opium, morphine, cocaine and other haMt-forming drugs. The last Legis lature took advanced steps in this di rection, but Mr. Stott believes that fur ther restrictions should be placed upon the statute books against the promis cuous sale of dangerous drugs. Ban on Prescriptions Intended. He will include in his bill a provision that shall make it a crime for a physi cian or a dentist to prescribe the use of such drugs except in the most severe cases. All members of the Legislature seem committed to the plans for economy. It is probable that no legislation will be proposed that provides for special appropriations. One law that is certain of revision Is the one passed at the last session that governs the methods of paying and collecting taxes. There has been much complaint from taxpayers in all parts of the state, as the new law pre scribes a penalty of 1 pef cent a month for delinquencies after the first tax paying period, even when half the taxes are paid at that time. In other words, it makes it an economical ne cessity to pay all taxes at the same time. Assessor May Meet Solona. Heury E. Reed, Assessor for Mult nomah County, is eager to hold a pre liminary meeting with the members of the Multnomah delegation for the pur pose of 'outlining plans for changes in the taxpaying law. John B. Coffey,- County Clerk, also wants to present several minor changes In the election laws. Meanwhile various candidates for clerkships in either house are continu ing their activities. The latest to en ter the field is Harold O. Wilkins, of Portland. He is an attorney and wants to be journal clerk in the House of Representatives. Martin Schacht, of Portland, Is un derstood to be a candidate for the of fice of State Architect. W. C. Knight on, of Salem, is the Incumbent. The position pays $4500 a year. F. C. Herrin, a prominent Portland insurance man. is understood to be a candidate for the office of State Insur ance Commissioner, -to succeed John"W. Ferguson. Although Commissioner Ferguson's term does not expire until January, 1917, it is understood that the next Legislature will take some action that will make it possible for Governor Withycombe to name a Republican to succeed him. VIADUCT TIME IS LIMITED Southern Pacific Must Act on Hol gate Crossing by December 1. The city has given notice to the Southern Pacific Company that action in the proposed construction of a via duct over Hoi gate street will be forced after December 1. The company has been given until that time to report definitely on its Intentions. The Improvement of Holgate street recently involved the improvement of the part of the street extending over the Southern Pacific tracks. Work was held up at this point on account of the proposal of the company to build a viaduct. Plans were submitted to the city for a design, but were rejected be cause it was proposed to use some of the steel from the old steel bridge. The city presented an alternate de sign, which was rejected by the com pany on the ground that it would be too costly. The company announced that It was willing to expenI only $55,000 for the viaduct, and the city designed a span to cost that much. This was submitted to the company and Is still pending.

BAKER PLANS HELD UP SEATTLE THEATER NOT AVAIL ABLE, VANCOUVER. UNPROMISING. First Bow of Spokane Company Dc elared Hugre Success and Welcome ' Is Accorded New Performers. On favorable development of certain contingencies In Seattle and Vancou ver, B. C, depends the opening of stock companies in those cities by George L. Baker, head of the Portland Baker Players, who, accompanied by Mrs. Baker, has returned from a tour of investigation. Mr. Baker came di rectly from Spokane, where he wit nessed the opening of the Famous Ba ker Players at the Auditorium. The opening was, according to Mr. Baker, auspicious and promising. "We will not be able to go into Seat tle or Vancouver, B. C, Just at this time," said Mr. Baker. "The outlook in Seattle is good enough, but we would not want to open there until we could obtain a certain theater which is not feasible for the present. Tbat leaves a contingency to be overcome there. As for Vancouver, conditions are not satisfactory Just now. On the other hand, if there Is favorable de velopment in a reasonable length of time we will go in. "We will continue to watch the op portunities in Seattle and Vancouver, but for the present will confine opera tions to Spokane and Portland. Tlie Spokane company established Itself Sunday, when the opening was a genu ine triumph. The Spokane people seemed to 'take to' the compr.ny and the expression of a number of busi ness men I met was that the city con sidered It a commercial asset. Fur thermore the company seems to have won the people." Soon after his arrival yesterday morning Mr. Baker began making plans for the part the Baker Players will take in the midnjght matinee New Year's eve. The managers will meet Thursday morning at the Heilig and discuss plans in detail. JAPANESE CONSUL DUE it. KIMAS VKI EXPECTED TODAY TO SUCCEED M. IDA IN OFFICE.

The financial condition of the city was discussed yesterday by City Auditor Barbur at a meeting of the Oregon Civic League. Mr. Barbur ex plained the causes contributing to the increase In the cost of municipal gov ernment and urged the adoption of the serial bond in place of the present form. Mr. Barbur declared that the city could have a tax levy of 6 mills next year if the conditions were the same as they were when the 1914 tax levy was made. He eald the assessed valua tion of the city has dropped 18,000,000, and the city in 19iS will lose a great deal 'of revenue which usually comes in from liquor licenses. PAROLE RIGHT QUESTIONED Judge Morrow's Clemency'to Ed De Young Void, Is Opinion.' Whether Judge Morrow in paroling Ed De Toung, convicted fraudulent land trader,' had the legal right to ex tend clemency when he gave the parole yesterdsy, is a point that has been called in question by District Attorney Evans, and it is probable that habeas corpus proceedings will be brought to determine whether or not De Young must serve a prison sentence. De Toung was given until October 19 to appeal, but commitment papers were not issued, and the prisoner was held in the County Jail. These papers were issued yesterday before the parole was signed, and Sheriff Word will hold De Young on the ground that when the man waa committed to the penitentiary he passed beyond the jurisdiction of Judge Morrow and can only be paroled by Governor West.
