ANTI

Speaker Forbids Reconsider
ation of Fund Bill, Holding
3-Day Limit Has Run.
bill introduced by the first woman leg
islator Oregon has ever had was re
turned to the house this morning; by
the committee on revision of laws.
The bill is aimed directly at collu
sive bidding: among contractors on
roads, bridges, buildings and other
public improvements made by the
state, any city, county, road district
or school district. It would have the
effect, attorneys say, of making such
collusive bidding a crime within the
meaning of this proposed law. A fin
of not less than lloo or not more than
J10.000 or a jail sentence of from 30
days to one year, or both, are pro
vided.

Sportsmen engaged in a clash at the
close of the House session this after
noon with the result that the antis
set at naught the House motion recall
ing the .Schuebel bill providing for a
consolidation of the nsh and game funds
with the general funds.
Just before adjournment Representa
tive Vawter. of Jackson, asked for re
consideration of the Schuebel bill. In
tantly Representative Schuebel was on
bis feet.
"Why. you can't reconsider that bill
now." he protested. "The bill was
passed last Friday. The three-day lim
It has passed.
This caused a storm of disapproval.
Those legislators who are supporting
the contentions of the sportsmen in
sisted that the three-day rule cannot
be applied to include the Saturday and
Sunday vacation. Under that interpre
tation the House still would-be within
the three-day period. The Speaker
ruled in support of the Schuebel theory,
but Representative Olson and others
Insisted that practices of previous ses
sions did not consider the week-end va-
cation as legislative days.
Reconsideration Plea Made,
"I know of at least 12 members of
this House who voted for this bill last
Friday and who did not know that it
provided for consolidating the fish and
same funds with the general funds,
declared Olson. "They now should be
given an opportunity to reconsider.
Schuebel pointed out that consolida
ting of funds is Involved in House bill
101, which he has introduced and which
will be up for consideration within a
lew days.
"Let's not waste time here now," ha
urged, "but let us fight this thing out
when my other bill comes up,
Many members appealed to the
Speaker that the measure be reconsid

fast In his decision that the three-day

then asked for a suspension of the

(Special.) Multnomah County will
continue to have the option of pur
chasing and operating voting machines
if it so elects.
The House committee on revision of
laws this afternoon reported adversely
on the Michelbrook bill, providing for
the- repeal of the law passed at the
1912 session, authorizing any county in
the state that chooses to use voting
machines at its elections. The 1913 act
was passed for the benefit of Multno
mah County, but never has been taken
advantage of.
However, the committee on revision
of laws took the attitude that that
county or some other county may at
some future time desire to use voting
machines. So the Michelbrook bill was
reported adversely.

Representatives Jones' bill providing
for the abolition of the Imnaha game
preserve in parts of Union, Wallowa
and Baker Counties was under consid
eration. Mr. Jones contended that the
state game department never has been
able to post required notices to hunters.
Inasmuch as the law cannot be en
forced anyway, he said, what's the use
of having the preserve? j
Representative Davey declared that i
it the Imnaha reserve Is to be opened
the Steen Mountain reserve in Har

this proposed amendment the bill was
sent "back to the game committee.

the penitentiary, with an offer that If
Lawson retained friends of the admin
istration, his position would be secure,
was shown to Governor Withycombe
tonight. The Governor said the re
port is a fabrication from start to
finish.
The newspaper account sets forth
that Attorney Hass went to Mr. Law
son, informing him that he, Hass, rep
resented the "powers that be" and that
if Lawson would allow Hass to name
those who should occupy the four chief
positions at the penitentiary Lawson
could be secured of retaining his po
sition. Hass, himself, branded the
story as a lie.
"So far as I am concerned," said the
Governor, "the whole thing is a dream.
And I don't believe Mr. Hass did the
dreaming. Perhaps it could better be
called a nightmare; certainly its pur
pose is a foul one. I believe Mr. Hass
when he brands the yarn a - lie. I
know Mr. Hass slightly, and so far as
I am aware, I never even discussed
the penitentiary with him."

Not Satisfied With Compromise.
Mill Continue to Fight.
Portland and other parts of the state
and by the State Flub and Gams De
partment. It is contended that com
mercial fishermen destroy the game
fishing in the stream.
The compromise plan worked out by
the committee provides that commer
cial fishing be restricted between the
falls and the mouth of the Clackamas
Hlver, a mile and a half below the
falls. The Oregon City people point
out, however, that for another mile
and a half below the mouth of the
Clackamas the Government has erected
buoys and other aids to navigation
and that fishing In that part of the
stream is impossible.
"They can't compromise with us."
said Representative Schuebel, who is
leading the light for the Oregon City
people. "We want the law to remain
precisely as It Is now. That ker.ps the
net men back 600 feet from the falls
and allows the line men to go within
200 feet of the falls. And that la bad
enough. But we won't ask to havs
the line men driven back."
" STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or., Jan

two weeks, are not parties to the pro
posed compromise
The original bill introduced by Rep
resentative Gill provided that commer
cial fishing be prohibited in the rive
between the falls at Oregon City and

tion sought by the game fishermen of

Nowaduys we get this famous

fully darkening the hair after a few
applications, it also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives it an ap
pearance of abundance. Adv.
