COPPERFIELD BOOZE

State Gets Bill for $122.85
for Keeping Wet Goods,
but Holds It Up.
GOVERNOR REFUSES TO PAY
Suggestion Made Tliut Holder Use

men Pay or Sue Oswald
West, "Who Put It There.
SALEM. Or., April 0. (Special.)
When one of ex-Governor "West's spe
cial Marshals, appointed during the
Coppertleld frticas, sent in a bill for
200 recently. Governor Wlthycombe
supposed that was the last echo of the
now famous "Copperfleld affair." But
today there came another dun against
the -state, this time for $122.85. That
amount, the creditor alleges, is due
him for storing liquor confiscated at
Copperfleld and which has been helj
at Baker for more than a year.
Last week Attorney-General Brown
went to Baker en route to Washington,
and while there, it is understood, he
denied that the state had any title or
property interest in the liquor stored.
there in the. name of Oregon. Taking
the ground that the state did not own
it, he authorized its return to its
owners, so far as any authority he
had over it was concerned. But now
it appears that before the long-suffering
saloon men can get back their booze
someone will have to pay the storage
bill.
Governor Wlthycombe's office has
notified Uie Baker storage man that
the present executive knows nothing
about it, and that it will be referred
to Attorney-General Brown when he
returns from Washington. It now
looks as if the original, owners will
have to get the wet goods out of hock
themselves. If they are worth the price.
Otherwise the storage company will be
obliged to keep the booze until the
state goes dry, consume it themselves,
or. as has been suggested, start an
other suit against a previous execu
tive, whose activity brought about the
present tangle..
COMMISSION MEN WIN
Pl'PRE.ME COURT HOLDS LICENSE
ACT riNCO-N'STITTJTIOXAIfc
Title of Statute Silent Concerning II
. Significance, Tribunal Holda, and
Quotra Basic I. aw.
SALEM, Or.. April 20. (Special.)
Tlio State Supreme Court today held
the statute providing for the regula
tion of commission merchants, passed
at the 1913 sesion of the Legislature, to
be unconstitutional, and. affirmed the
verdict in favor of the defendants in
the case against IS. H. Levy and J. J.
Cole, appealed from Multnomah County.
The act provided that commission
merchants obtain licenses from the
State Kailroa Commission and file
bonds with the Secretary of estate.
Messrs. Levy and Cole were convicted
and lined J25 each. They appealed to
the Circuit Court and Judge Davis dis
missed the case, declaring the law to
be unconstitutional.
"The statute makes the State Rail
road Commission," says the opinion,
which was written by Justice Benson,
"a tribunal with extraordinary powers,
although the title of the act gives no
hint of such provision. Article 4, sec
tion 20, of the state constitution pro
vides that 'livery act shall embrace
out one subject, and matters properly
connected therewith, which subject
shall be expressed in the title.' Apply
ing this test to the act under consid
eration, we see at a glance that the
powers granted to the Kailroad Com
mission are a vital and dominant feat
ure of the statute, yet the title is
wholly silent in relation thereto."
Other opinions today were as follows:
F. P. Smith vb. V. S. Mott. appellant;
appealed from Marlon County; suit for re
covery of money; affirmed.
Joe SuBinlk vs. Alccr 1-oeginff Company,

State of Oregon, appellant, vs. Port of

Cook adhered to.

MR CUSICK REPLIES
Roads Declared Without Part
in Grant Intervention.
STATE DEVELOPMENT CITED
People's Desire Believed to Be That
Oregon & California Railway
Land Be Sold for Use as
Provided In Grant.
ALBANY, Or., "April 20. (Special.)
That tho action of tho Oregon legis
lature in asking the Attorney-General
to intervene on behalf of the state In
the Oregon & California land grant
suit was taken In tho interest of the
people of this state is the statement of
E. D. Cusick, of this city. State Senator
from Linn and Lane counties, wno in
troduced the resolution in tho State
Senate. Senator Cusick says the inti
mation in the Portland Journal that the
legislation was undertaken in the In
terest of the railroad company is ab
surd as the company was not consulted
nor did it know anything aDout me
matter.
Senator Cusick says tho matter is an
Important one to the people of tho state.
He calls attention to tho fact that from
these lands the counties of Oregon in
which they are situated receive 466,000
annually in taxes. At any rate that
was tho total tax on them for 1913. If
this land Is all thrown into a reserve
no income will be received. He says
that while the people did not want tho
railroad company to keep this land, he
believes they do wish that the terms' of
the grant be complied with and that
the land be sold for use and develop
ment. If that course is taken it will do
much to develop tho state, place the
land in shape for taxation as at present
and promote the state's prosperity
generally. But if the land is merely
forfeited to the Government, it will
mean another large reserve.
"The resolution which I introduced in
the Senate, directing the Attorney
General to appear in the Oregon &
California land grant suit, was not
suggested by tho railroad company nor
was it introduced with their knowl
edge," said Senator Cuaick. "The rail
road company was not consulted in the
matter at all and I do not know
whether its Interests will bo advanced
or injured by the appearance of the Attorney-General.
"I do know, however, that tho Inter
ests of the state are at stake and I be
lieve now, as I believed at the session
of the Legislature, that the proper ac
tion was such as was outlined in the
resolution which I introduced.
"The 1907 Legislature adopted a reso
lution asking Congress in effect to take
such action as would compel the rail
road to perform specifically the con
tract of grant under penalty of for
feiture. The decree of the court was
forfeiture and- not a specific perform
ance of the contract. The position of
the state acting under my resolution is
entirely consistent, and, in my Judg
ment, meets with the overwhelming ap
proval of the citizens of this state, par
ticularly in the counties seriously con
cerned. "The policy of the Harriman roads, in
attempting to create a railroad forest
reserve along the lines of the Pinchot
policy; would have been detrimental to
the state's development. The people of
the state did ndt want the land to go
into a Harriman reserve, nor do they
want the lands to go into the National
Forest Reserve. The attempt of the
Journal to convey the idea that the
measure was passed surreptitiously la
not based upon tho record. My resolu
tion was debated in the Senate and re
ported fully in The Oregonlan. The
fact that tho matter went over tho
head of the Journal, indicates its failure
to comprehend those larger questions
of public policy vitally interesting to
the state. It is one of the most im
portant and meritorious acts of the
Legislature."
"LONG TON" ABANDONED
XEW COAL RATE BASIS I.V WASH.
INCTO.V PROPOSED.
Northern Pacific's Compromise Sched
ules Provide for 934,471 Reduc
tion In Annual Revenue.
OLYMPIA. Wash., April 20. (Spe
cial.) One feature of new compromise
coal rates offered by tho Northern Pa
cific to all points in the state is aban
donment of the "long ton" of 2240
pounds, which has obtained throughout
Western Washington, and the estab
lishing of the short ton of 2000 pounds
as the basis of rates.
Last year's coal shipments from Ros
lyn produced revenues of $364,518 for
the Northern Pacific. The new pro
posed tariff would have produced rev
enues of $330,047. The rates specified
in the Public Service Commission order,
which is tied up in tho courts, would
have produced $311,289.
The annual reduction under tho Com
mission schedule would amount to $53,
000. The Thurston County Superior
Court, however, required tho railroad
to file a. supersedeas bond of only $25,-,
000, and if the Commission's order is
finally sustained shippers can recover
only to tho amount of the bond, it is
said.
Short ton rates of $1.15 to Seattle
and Tacoma from Roslyn. the same rate
specified by the Commission, as against
existing rates of $1.50 per long ton.
equivalent to a $1.34 rate for a short
ton, are offered by the railroad. A re
duction from $2.50 to $2.25, as against
a $2.15 rate provided in the Commis
sion's order, is proposed for Spokane.
The Commission has set April 30 as
a date for a hearing on the proposed
tariffs. .
DEATH PAY JDENIED WIDOW
Washington Case to Decide Depend
ency of Father of Dead Man.
OLYMPIA; Wash., April 20. (Spe
cial.) Whether the abandoned widow
of George Greene, a logger killed in th
Chehalis County woods in February, or
his dependent father is entitled to state
compensation will be a question for the
courts to decide. The Industrial In
surance Commission has rejected the
claim of tho widow, Mrs. Ella Greene,
on the ground of non-dependency, al
leging that she deserted her husband
five years ago, and the woman has ap
pealed to the Chehalis County Superior
Court.
The case will bring in issue the dis
puted question of rival dependencies,
and is expected to settle this problem
for all future similar cases.

OLYMPIA, Wash., April 20. The Su
preme Court, today denied tho petition
