NORTON IS SECRETARY New rubllc Official Establishes Of. fices at Yeon Building and Will Stay pi Oregon Until December Session Begins. Beginning promptly at 9 o'clock this morning Multnomah County will bava a new Representative in Congress. C. N. McArthur, who was elected last November, will go in and A. W. Laf ferty. who has just completed two terms, will go out. Although Congress will not b in ses sion until December unless a special meeting is ordered Mr. McArthur will be ofllcially and actually on duty from the time his term begins this morning. He has established offices at 810 Yeon building, where all public business will bo transacted. Yesterday he appointed r. A. Norton as his private secretary to assist him In the work. Mr. Norton Is a graduate of Columbia (Tniversity law school and has had pre vious experience In connection with the Government service at Washing ton, D. C. He also Is a qualified short band reporter and stenographer. Oath of Office Deferred. While Mr. McArthurs term of office and all the attending perquisites. In cluding tha salary, and franking priv ileged become effective today, he will not take the oath of office until he goes to Washington. He has forwarded his certificate of election to the chief clerk of the House, of Representatives and his name has been placed on the roll of the 64th Congross. The Federal Gov ernment now will recogniaa him as tha official Representative from Multnomah County District. In the several months before the next Congress convenes Mr. McArthur will devote much of his time to a study of conditions in the state for the purpose of learning the needs of the various sections. He intends to visit the out lying sections that he has not seen for several years.. He is now arranging to close up his law- practice, so that he can devote all his time to his office. "I shall be glad to see anyone who has business with the Federal Govern ment," he said yesterday. "Either I or my secretary will be in constant at tendance at my office in the Teon build ing. I want the people who have pub lic business to consider my office a public office. So far as is in my power I'll try to accommodate them." Official Work Already On. In fact, for the last few months, he has been considering the proposals of inquirers for homestead locations and of persons who have claims against the Government. While he was not of ficially on duty ha attended to official business. It is a strange circumstance, that within Ave months after Mr. McArthur goes to Washington next December, the party primaries for nominating candi dates tQ succeed him Will be held. In Oregon the primaries of 1916 are scheduled for May J9. While it Is too early to consider the possibilities of the primaries, it is considered probable that Mr, McArthur will be a cahdidate to succeed himself. If Congress Is in session during the primary campaign he doubtless will re main there to attend to the public bus iness. One . of bis platform promises, upon which he secured election last Fall, was that he would stay In Wash ington while lie was needed .there and not come home te play politics.- "I shall endeavor, through the pub lic prints, to keep the people informed of my activities after I take office." be says, "and hope that the public will not hesitate about keeping me informed of its wants." END OF SUIT FORESEEN Lawyers In Chnrch Case Expect Soon to Submit Decrees. ' What many think may be the last chapter of the litigation between con tending factions in the First Methodist Episcopal Church is expected to begin this week, when, if the expectations of attorneys for the two sides are borne out, they will be able to file decrees with Judge Gatens for his considera tion. Attempts also will be made to argue the Issue involving the opening of the Taylor-street church, which was Closed last October. The decision rendered from the bench by Judge Gatens two weeks ago was that the court had no jurisdiction to order the church doors reopened, as demanded by the insurgents." but that if the property were not used for church purposes, as was contemplated in the deed, it would be taxed. Since this deoislon was rendered, the attor neys have been preparing variant de crees to present to the court- , Talks to Be Given Near Albany. ALBANY, Or., March 3. (Special.) D. B.
