8 THE MOHXTXG OTCEGONTAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1917. DRYS WIN THREE IN HOUSE Wets Able to Muster Three Votes at First but Opposi tion Is Swept Aside. LIVELY DEBATE STAGED Memorials for National Prohibition and to Bar Mall Order Advertis ing: Adopted Bone Dry Bill . as Published Introduced. 6TATE CAPITOL, Salem , Or.. Jan. 16. (Special.) The Demon Rum was kicked out of the House this morning and sent out into the frost and the cold after getting on of the most merciless pummellngs that he ever had handed him by a state Legis lature. He fought three rounds with the House members and grew weaker with every round. The frst round was a vote on Sena tor Eddy's memorial to Congress ask ing for a National prohibition amend ment. It carried. 67 to 3. Kubli, Schimpff and Stott alone voted against It. In the second round, which was fought over Senator Eddy's memorial to bar liquor advertising from the malls in dry states, Stott Joined the dry forces, Kubll and Schimpff being the only "nags." The third round was short but fast. It consisted of a vote on Representa tive Lewis' memorial asking Congress to submit the question of National prohibition to a Nation-v.-ide referen dum. The drys, led by Representative Anderson, bitterly opposed it. The measure was sent down the skids to oblivion by viva voce, but not a single voice could be heard in its defense. Lewis himself evidently did not vote at all or voted against It. Bone-Dry Bill Introduced.' As If to clinch the victory Dr. An derson this morning Introduced the Anderson-Eddy bill carrying into ef fect the "bone-dry" amendment adopt ed at" the November election and curb ing the sale of alcohol. The bill carries an emergency clause and will become a law immediately after it is signed by the Governor. It has been approved In substance by Attorney General Brown. Its provisions In gen eral are substantially as outlined in The Oregonian this morning. The bill will go before the House committee on alcoholic traffic tomor row. The' committees of the . two houses will hold joint sessions and at least one public hearing will be provided. It is probable that the new law will be in effect by February 1, after which date it will be unlawful for any express company or railroad to make deliveries of liquor ordered un der the present law. Everyone who gets liquor, however, before the new law becomes opera tive will be allowed to retain it. The bill carries no search and seizure clause. Debate Is Lively. The debate over the Eddy and Lewis memorials doubtless was " the liveliest heard this year. Representative Call an first drew fire from the dry leaders when he proposed that the National prohibition memorial be laid on the table until members could obtain printed copies. "I object to -this attempt to block temperance legislation," protested Dr. Anderson. Everyone in the House knows what this memorial contains and I suppose Mr. Callan knows why he is against it." "If the members do not have copies it is their own fault. I have one and I think a copy was left on every mem ber's desk," said Representative Bean. Callan's motion was defeated with an overwhelming vote. The memorial itself then was adopt ed by a vote of 57 to 8. The Eddy memorial denying the use of the mails to liquor advertslng in dry states went through. 68 to 2, with out much discussion. But the Lewis memorial produced some fireworks. Lewis himself read from The Orego nian a report that his good faith in Introducing the measure had been brought into question by Dr. Anderson, and he went at length to defend his record. Lewis Memorial Discussed. Representative Burdlck, chairman of the! resolutions committee, which had reported the memorial without recom mendation, spoke against It- He said It called on Congress to do something that doubtless Is unconstitutional and certainly Impractical. "It only means delay to the cause of prohibition at the best," he pleaded. "It's almost ridiculous to adopt it." Anderson, Sheldon and other dry supporters asked for immediate rejec tion of the measure, but by a parlia mentary coup -Lewis had it tabled. Forbes and others quickly pointed out that this action would make It possible to bring the question up at any future time and delay the work of the House. "I thank the House for tabling It." exclaimed Lewis. "I move we take It from the table," shouted Ritner, amid the laughter and tumult. His motion carried decisively. "Now I move that further consider ation of this memorial be indefinitely postponed." cried Ritner. A vociferous chorus of "ayes." with- STOPS ANY COLD IN A FEW HOURS Tape's Cold Compound" Opens Clogged Nose and Head and Ends Grippe. Relief comes Instantly.

Mer cer, the popular and efficient ser-geant-at-arms of the Senate, Is a vet eran of the Civil War. He enlisted In the Third Iowa Cavalry In 18G3 when he was only 15 years old, and had to have his mother's written consent to do so. He made a gallant record. Colonel Mercer is a real gentleman of the old school. He is often referred to as "the grand old man of the Oregon Senate." Senator Pierce, of Union and Wal lowa, is by all odds the silver-tongued orator of th Senate. To begin with, he possesses the first requisite of an orator, being a Democrat. Added to which the Senator has a fine command of words and effective control of the tremuio stops. Current gossip about the Statehouse is to the effect that Henry Schulder man, present corporation commissioner, is planning to run for State Treasurer next year. William Adams. City Treas urer of Portland, is already an avowed candidate. Resolutions frqm the Pomona Grange, of Clackamas County, protesting against the annexation of a part of Clackamas County, Including the vil lage of Oswego, were introduced In the House this morning by Representative Brownell. .' Alexander Thompson, husband of the only "woman legislator, has been at tending the sessions of the last few days. William G. Hare, of Hillsboro, one of the popular members of the House two years ago, visited the House this morning. w Roscoe P. Hurst, of Portland, listened to the House proceedings for a while this morning. Lair H. Gregory, one of the newspa per men reporting the session, took a turn of strenuous exercise the other night, not on his programme. Gregory rooms in a fashionable neighborhood, toward the south end of town, about a mile from the Capitol. He came up from Portland the other night with a heavy suitcase, tilled with nothing but clothes. He carried it, with much ex ertion, to his rooms. But the door was locked. The occupants could not be arousel. Half an hour later Gregory and his suitcase appeared at the room out a single "nay,' knockout blow. furnished the DRUGGISTS SEEK MOKE POWER Right to Cancel Licenses ot Law breakers Desired. The members of the Oregon 6tate Board of Pharmacy, in quarterly ses sion here yesterday, decided that some protection must be had when the bone dry law goes into effect and the tip pler has lost all legal means of pro curing his desired drink. Accordingly they will go to Salem this morning and conrer. with the al coholic committee of the House and have framed a bill that will give- the Board powers to meet any emergency that may arise under the enforcement of the bone dry law. They wish legislation that will en able them to make their own investi gations and revoke the license of those druggists whom they believe to be vio lating the law In making excessive sales of alcoholic subterfuges. They wish to be able to revoke licenses with-i out investigation by civil authorities.' The members of the Board expect a great deal of trouble when the bone dry law becomes operative and it is their earnest hope to weed out the lr responsibles among them. Those attending the meeting yester day at the Imperial Hotel were: Presi dent Ross A. Farr, Astoria; Secretary F. S. Ward. Salem; floss M. Plummer, Portland; Clyde G. Huntley. Oregon City; G. Lee Brown. Marshfield. The Board is in charge of the ex aminations now being held at the North Pacific College of Dentistry and Phar macy. Twenty-four men and women are taking the two-day examination for state licenses that ends today. 3 INITIATIVE BILLS 111 HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE TO HOLD PUBLIC HEARING. One Measure Forbids Clrcnlatlng Petl- tions for litre and Another Pre scribes Places for Signing. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 16. (Special.) Three measures Intended to strengthen and improve the initia tive and referendum laws now are pending before the House Judiciary committee, and Chairman Forbes has set Thursday afternoon for a public hearing on them. House bill No. 7, by Bowman, would make it unlawful to circulate initiative or referendum petitions for hire. It fixes a penalty of not less than $50 nor more than $1000 for violations. House bill No. 67, by Gordon, would require signers of initiative referendum petitions to be registered voters. Per sons having charge of such petitions must make affidavits that the signa tures are bona fide. The bill would prescribe - places where interested per sons might go to sign them. The Gordon bill also would require that all proposed petitions be sent to the Attorney-General of the state, who would write the titles for them. This is to prevent measures going on the ballot with- misleading titles. Representative Brownell's bill. Intro duced today, would make it possible to file an initiative measure by paying a fee of $500. It would leave it optional to pay the fee or circulate petitions.

LEGISLATURE of a friendly colleague, near the State House, where he found refuge for the night. E. James Jones, of Oswego, has been appointed printing clerk for the House. He will edit and revise all bills before they go to the printer. F. TJ. Hunt, of Portland, visited the House session this morning. Representative Mueller, of Columbia County, promises to become the literary authority of the House. He closed an eloquent speech yesterday with a flow ery quotation from Goldsmith and can refer to any of the classics whenever occasion demands. He is a close stu dent in all the higher branches of learn ing, as Is evidenced by the following array of "high brow" books on top of his desk: "The Optimist's Good Morn ing." The Letters of ' Junius," "The Confession of St. Augustine," "Brann, the Iconoclast," "The Encyclopedia of Kace and Form Reading." "How Ger many Makes War," by Friederlch von Bernhardt, and a few others. Besides all that. Representative Mueller is quite a linguist. He speaks, English, French. German, Spanish and several other Lan guages. Members of the House whose wives accompany 'them to the session are planning an Informal "get acquainted" dinner at the Marion Hotel on Thurs day evening. About 15 couples will be present. Representative and Mrs. .Brand, of Dougias County, have charge of arrangements. Z. W. Wood, of Hillsboro. the father of Senator W. D. Wood, is suffering from an attack of grip. He was im proved considerably when the Senator returned to Salem today. Mr. Wood, Sr.. Is 91 years old. There Is talk among some of the Senators of introducing a measure to make members of School Boards sub ject to recall. It has been held by the courts that they are not now subject to the recall law. "I ask that the courtesies of the Senate be extended to Judge H- H. Hewitt, of Albany," said Senator Huston. "And I ask that the courtesies of the Senate be also extended to Mrs. H. H. Hewitt," said Senator Garland, chivalrously. PEQPLETO GET WORD Miss Rankin Plans Her First Talk in New York. WOMAN'S TOPICS ARE MANY Representative) From Montana Not to Speak as Suffragette, but Will Carry Message Straight to People on March 2. MISSOULA. Mont.. ' Jan. 16. (Spe cial.) Miss Jeanette Rankin, the coun try's first woman Representative to Congress, Is to carry her message di rect to the people as well as to mas culine Congressmen. fine will tell New York, on her way to her Congres sional seat in Washington, what she plans to work for wnen she becomes "the lady from Montana" to the Speak er of the House. Miss Rankin plans to make her first address In New .York City Friday be fore inauguration and has Just closed with Lee Keedick, a New Yorker, to ar range for a hall and other particulars for her first message. She is now at her home here, planning her campaign to the people of New York. Among some of the matters that she is ex pected to (take up are the eight-hour law. equal wages for women for the same work done by men. universal ed ucation and the extension of child la bor, although she is believed to have other matters for the consideration of the Gothamites. Miss Rankin will go to New York not as a suffragette, although she still believes in the franchise for women, bu v will make her appeal as a mem ber of Congress and as a woman work ing for the betterment of women and children. Her belief is that women "statesmen" should not battle men, but relieve them of the task of caring for femininity- and the little ones, so that the stronger sex may devote its time and strength to other of the many matters of the country. After her address in New York March 2 Miss Rankin will go on to Washing ton prepared to take her oath as the first woman ever sent to a United States Congress. GAME LAWS DISCUSSED HUXTERS' LICENSES MAY BE LSO FOB. MEN A.-VD WOMEN. Move to Tax Women for Fishing; Tj popnlar A billing: at Ongea City Likely to Be Barred. SALEM. Or., Jan. 16. (Special.) While no definite action was taken by memkers 'of the Joint fish and game committee today at a conference wltl members of the State Pish and Game Commission, it was apparent that the committee has a number of legisiativo ideas brewing which probably will take the form of bills. Repeal of exemption of women from paying . for fishing licenses Is improbable, but an Increase in hunters' licenses to $1.50 and re quiring women to pay such license is likely. It is probable that the consensus of opinion among the committee members will be against a two-year closed sea son on China pheasants, as incorporat ed in a bill before the Senate, but will vote to leave the question of an open season on pheasants entirely up to the Commission. The committee also seemed favorable to a plan of the Com mission to establish a deadline on com mercial salmon fishing at two and one half "miles below Clackamas Rapids in the Willamette Instead of the present line at Oregon City. Favorable comment was heard upon the establishment of another fisb hatchery at the headwaters of the Wil lamette. Representative Belland said fishermen In his county favored a tax of 5 cents a case on canned salmon to enhance the hatchery fund. Bill Urges 'State Public School. STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or, Jan. 16. (Special.) The bill drafted by Mrs. Alva Lee Stevens and other Portland clubwomen providing for a state public school and carrying an appropriation of $Tr,000 a year for two years was ln ttoduced In the House today by Rep resentative Gordon. - It would prohibit alt commitments of children to s ".Ta rtan Institutions and cut off all state aida now given such, institutions. FIRST MERGER BILL KILLED IN SENATE Measure Relating to State Schools Is Considered Dan gerous and Costly. TRIBUTES PAID REGENTS Besides Additional Expense, Fear of Crippling Institutions Is Voiced and Protest of Author Is Drowned Out, 20 to 8. . STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or, Jan. 16. (Special.) Over the vigorous protest of Senator Barrett, its author, the Sen ate today killed S.B. 17. first of the consolidation measures to coma to a vote in either house. S. B. IT provided for a new State Board of Education of three members and a paid secretary at $1800 a year. In this board were to be combined the State Board of Textbook Commission ers, the Board of Higher Curricula and the boards of regents, respectively, of the University of Oregon, Oregon Agri cultural College and State Normal. Schools. The Senate committee on education, after holding the bill five days aad meeting twice to consider it, returned unanimously the recommendation that it be indefinitely postponed. The Sen ate adopted the report. Recommitment la Defeated. The test vote came, however, on Sen ator Barrett's previous motion to re refer the bill to the committee with instructions to place It on the Senate calendar for third reading. Senator Barrett demanded a rollcall. the vote being 20 against re-commitment and 8 for it. The vote on this rollcall stood i Ayes (for recommitment) Barrett, Dimlck. LaFollette. Smith of Josephine, Steiwer, Strayer, Wood and Moser. Noes (against rec mmltment) Bald win. Bishop. Cuslck, Eddy, Farrell. Garland. Gill. Handley. Hawley. Hurley. Huston. Lelnenweber, iewis, Orton, Pierce. Shanks, Smith of Coos, Vinton, Von .der Hellen and. Wilbur. Absent Bingham and Olson. - Senator Barrett in the debate on the measure urged that It receive careful consideration. ' Business Methods Wanted. . T do not like to see It Indefinitely postponed without further considera tion," said he, "because It has to do with systematizing the expenditure of $1,897,562 asked by the educational In stitutions named. The object of the measure is to formulate a plan for more businesslike methods. Under present arrangements funds of these institu tions are practically handled by the institutions themselves." Senator Pierce, who is a Regent of Oregon Agricultural College, opposed the consolidation on the ground, that the three Institutions perform entirely different functions and that to unite their management would be imprac ticable. "It might have been possible In early days to unite them,' he said, "but not now." Present System Costa Less. Smlht of Coos, chairman of the edu cation committee, said he had checked up the entire cost to the state of the three Boards of Regents for the past two years and that It totaled only $3215.32. On the other hand, be de clared, the $1800 a year salary of the secretary created by tbo new bill would cost $3600 alone for the same period. "This is an experiment, and a dan gerous experiment," he instated. "No man can give logical reason for its adoption." Garland paid a high tribute to the efficiency of the University of Oregon and Oregon Agricultural College under the present arrangement, and asserted that to supersede their Board of Re gents with the proposed body would be likely to cripple that efi ciency. Gill of Multnomah also opposed the consolidate . 3 BUDGETS ARE UNCUT JOINT COMMITTEE PASSES ON AD MINISTRATrVE EXPENSES. Treasurer's Requested Fund Reduced. Attorney-General Points Oat Value of Involved Lands. STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or.. Jan. 16. (Special.) Landa involved in the seven Hyde-Benson cases, which have been on trial in seven circuit courts throughout the state, are of immense value, according to a statement made by Attorney-General Brown before the Joint waya and means committee to night. One small tract, he said, was worth $24,000, and the total cruise on the timber alone more than $400,000. To lose these, lands would mean an almost Inestimable loss to the state, he said. In making a plea to retain all his bud get expenses. The entire amount he asked was allowed. Governor Withycombe, Secretary of State Olcott and State Treasurer Kay all were called personally before the committee tonight. The budgets of the Governor and Secretary of State were allowed In full, including $4500 for printing the blue book by the Secre tary's office. - A reduction of $1250 was made on the Treasurer's office, includ ing $1000 cut from the premium on his bond, reduced recently by the Gover nor, and $200 from, his traveling ex pense account, which Mr. Kay said could be reduced without bothering him. CONSOLIDATION PLANS UP -Continued From First Page.) ance with the recommendation made by the Governor in his message to the Legislature last week. Salary of S3000 Provided. A salary of $3000 for the commis sioner is provided. The tax secretary would be retained at $1800 a year. The House did a lot of work today. Besides starting out on its consolida tion programme, it adopted two Joint memorials to Congress bearing favor abl on the prohibition question, re ceived S3 new bills, passed one bill and acted on a variety of resolutions uf more or less importance. It adopted the memorial to President Wilson asking a speedy return of the Oregon troops on the border and the Senate Joint memorial asking Congress to pass the Townsend bill providing a pension for surviving officers of the Civil War. Ikmecrsis Offer Ho Complaint. The memorial asking for th return of the Oregon troops did not a-u the opposition In the House that It did on the previous day In th Senate.

Representative Anderson's "bone dry" bill was the only measure Intro duced today that really may be con sidered of large Importance, although the authors of most of the others may not agree with this statement. Woman Member Offers BUI. Mrs. Thompson, the only woman mem ber, today Introduced her first bill. It would compel the commitment of patients to the Institution tor the Feeble Minded. Any county Judge may. under this measure, cause a feeble minded child to be brought before him and conduct an examination. One or more competent physicians are to con stitute the examining board. The rel atives of a person adjudged feeble minded can have the privilege of ap pealing. Other states have similar laws. Representative Thomas today Intro duced a bill proposed by the State Hor ticultural Society. It would enable the county officials to spray a private or chard to destroy infection and to make the costs in connection with the work a lien upon the property. Representative Sheldon's bill Intro duced today would enable all 'regis tered voters to vote at elections for school directors. The present law lim its the right to vote in school elections to property owners. Sheldon' measure would retain this restriction on bond elections: Many Fishing Bills Entered. A big grist of fishing bills was en tered on the House calendar today. One by the Clatsop County delegation would repeal the law enacted at the last session providing a Joint agree ment with the state of Washington regulating fishing in the Columbia River. A similar bill was Introduced earlier In the session by Representa tive BrownelL Representative Tichenor entered his bill prohibiting seine fishing in the mouth of the Rogue River and another bill prohibiting seining and drift net ting in the Columbia. It Is not expected that the latter measure will pass. It merely is of fered by Tichenor, who halls from Coos and Curry counties, as a defensive weapon against those who would cur tail the commercial fishing In the Rogue. Cranberry Meaanre Provided. Representative Schimpff. of Astoria, presented a bill providing a standard measurement for cranberry containers. At present, says Schimpff. cranberries are sold by the pound almost entirely. This does very well within the -state, but the cranberry Industry of Ore gon is growing and the Interstate ship ments are increasing constantly. His proposed regulations would conform with the measurements recently adopt ed by the Federal Government. The House today passed: House bill No. 20. by Jones, of Lane, providing that the school census shall be taken In October Instead of Novem ber of each year. The House probably will have an other busy day tomorrow. Nina bills are up for third reading. Among them are the reschutes County delegation's Alkali Makes Soap Bad for Washing: Hair Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which Is very Injurious, as It dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
