6ALEM, Or.. Jan. 22. (Special.) Ad
dresses by Governor Withycombe, State
Labor Commissioner Hoff. Industrial
Accident Commissioner Marshall and a
Cumber of others featured the opening
day of the fourteenth annual conven
tion of the Oregon Federation of La
bor, which started a week's session
here today. More than 100 delegates
already have arrived and more are ex
pected at tomorrow's meeting.
As one of its first actions the federa
tion adopted a resolution indorsing
House Joint Resolution No. 2 of Repre
sentative Laurgaard.
Industrial Peace TJrared.
In addressing the delegates in the
morning Governor Withycombe ex
pressed himself as being desirous of
seeing industrial peace throughout the
state.
'I am a firm believer in the adage
that the laborer is worthy of his
hire."' he said. "I believe that labor
and the laboring man is entitled to
every consideration and I am anxious
to see that he attains all to which he
Is entitled, but I also am anxious to
see such attained through peaceful
channels. For the best interests of all
the state It is my hope to see labor
and capital meeting upon some common
frround to secure what is best for
both."
Speaking- of the proposed consolida
tion of departments of the state gov
ernment which deal with questions of
Interest to labor, he declared that a
consolidation of these bodies under one
head, in the Industrial Accident Com
mission, would lead to a much better
condition, as he asserted that the cen
tralization of power, linked with the
centralization of responsibility, inevi
tably would lead to more efficiency,
economy and a generally better admin
istration or all of these activities. He
cpoke in complimentary terms of the
present Labor Commissioner, O. P. Hoff,
and of his work.
"It is the great problem now to see
that Industrial Accident Commission
provided for and placed on an Im
pregnable basis." he stated. "Insidious
forces are at work trying to undermine
the commission and we should guard
carefully against them."
The delegates were welcomed by
Walter E. Keyes. Mayor of Salem, and
be was followed by an address from
Governor Withycombe.
Year Reported Prosperous.
Reports received for the year from O.
R. Hartwlg, of Portland, president of
the federation, and E. J. Stack, also of
Portland, secretary of the organization.
Indicated that the past year has been
a most successful one and that the af
fairs of the organization are In excel
lent condition.
C. P. Tufts spoke to the convention
on a move for "one day rest in seven"
and urged the passage of a bill which
will be before the Legislature. While
the bill is a blanket one in its provi
sions. Mr. Tufts explained, on a ques
tion from one of the delegates as to
whether it would affect the employes
of transportation companies, that Its
terms probably would be governed by
federal acts upon that subject, which
would take precedence over the State
law, but he declared the bill would ap
ply to all other lorms ol labor, even

E. W. St. Pierre.
SALEM. Or., Jan. 22. (Special.)
E. W. St. Pierre, whose funeral
will be held tomorrow afternoon,
was one of the forerunners in
this state in securing better con
ditions for prisoners at the State
Penitentiary. Largely through
his instrumentality as Parole Of
ficer, superintendent of the Pris
oners' Aid Society and chaplain at
the prison for a period extend
ing over eight years, the present
parole laws of the state were
worked out. His interest in con
vict welfare and betterment was
the result of almost a life study
of the subject and he placed much
of his personality behind the
movement toward prison reform.

STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or.. Jan. 22.
(Special.) If there is any objection
to the emergency clause or any other
important part of the pending "bone-
dry" prohibition law It did not make
its appearance at the open meeting of
the House and Senate committees on
alcoholic traffic here tonight.
Almost every legitimate interest af
fected by the measure was represented
at the hearing which was conducted
before a large Towd In the House
chamber and a number of valuable
suggestions were made. .
Chemist Offers Suggestion.
One suggestion, advanced by A. A.
Hall, a chemist, will be given serious
consideration by the committee. He
pointed out that in its present form the
bill will not permit the manufacture
of denatured alcohol, which may be
made a valuable bi-product of many
Oregon industries such as the paper
mills, the sawmills, beet sugar fac
tories, canneries and others. , He ex
plained that the denaturization of alco
hol is done under Government super
vision and that its practice would not
be in violation of the spirit of the
"bone-dry" law. Denatured alcohol is
a dangerous poison and therefore could
not be used for beverage purposes.
"That point never had been made to
us before," said Senator Shanks, chair
man of the Senate committee, after the
meeting, "and it is entirely probable
that we will meet the situation."
Another valuable suggestion was
made by Ralph Hahn. wholesale grocer.
of Portland, who asked that manufac
turers who import alcohol be required
to give a personal bond of $2500 or
$3000, to prevent bootleggers making
importations under the guise of manufacturers.
' Speakers Are Applauded.
The sentiment of the crowd was
easily reflected by the liberal applause
given to the speakers who voiced em
phatic prohibition sentiments.
It must be remembered, in consider
ing the pending bill, that It alms not
only to carry Into effect the "bone-
dry" amendment adopted by the people
last November, but to restrict the pro
miscuous sale of alcohol, which has
been the principal defect In the exist
ing prohibition law.
Virtually all the objections made to
the pending bill tonight were against
the alcohol clauses and not against
the "bone-dry" provisions.
A committee of the Oregon State
Medical Society, including Dr. W. T.
Williamson, Dr. Calvin S. white. Dr.
C. J. Smith and Dr. R. C. Tenni. pro
tested against some of the require
ments that the measure imposes upon
physicians.
It requires, among other things, that
physicians in prescribing alcohol for
medicinal purposes, write in plain
English, the name of the disease for
which the prescription is given, and
that this name also be placed on the
outside of the bottle. This would be a
violation of their code of ethics, they
said. They also objected to the re
quirement that the patient sign an
affidavit upon receiving It, making the
point that patients sometimes might
be physically unable to sign their
names.
Jail Penalty I'rged.
C. M. Thomas, Representative in the
Legislature from Jackson County, asked
for more stringent regulations to pre
vent Illegal shipments across the state
line1 from California. The state should
be responsible for the prosecution of
this provision, he said, as it will be
serious burden for the county. He also
thought that the penalty for the first
offense against the law should be
jail sentence instead of a mere fine.
He said that the Institution of the
liquor dispensaries at Hornbrook, Cal.,
had brought all the scum of the earth
to that place, which is just across the
line from Jackson County, and that all
decent people were forced to shun the
magnificent Pacific Highway that peo
pie of Jackson County have built, mere
ly because drunken automobile drivers
make it dangerous. He also said that
liquor in private possession at the time
the law goes into effect should be dis
posed of or confiscated.
Thomas B. Kay, state -treasurer, said
that the co -ty judge instead of dis
trict-attorney should be the official
designated to dispense alcohol for
manufacturing purpoiss as provided In
the bill.
R. P. Hutton had the same Idea, but
suggested that the county commission
ers might receive the applications.
A. W. Allen, representing the retail
druggists, made numerous suggestions,
intended to meet the requirements of
his profession. He said that the drug
gists, in the main, are satisfied with
the bill and interested in seeing it
carried into effect. He proposed that
the same regulations be Imposed
are on the sale of morphine and other
poisons.
Sam Brown Offers Solntloa.
MacCormac Snow, attorney for Wells,
Fargo & Co., wanted some provision
made to enable the express companies
to deliver the shipments made under
the present law up to the time the
new goes into effect.
"Why don't you stop accepting It?"
suggested Sam Brown, a member of the
committee.
'The law requires us to accept It un
til this bill goes into effect."
"You could very easily stop im
portations under the constitutional
amendment If you wanted to," said A.
H. Burton, a member of the House.
Mr. snow manifested concern ove
those individuals who had liquor ship
ments under way and paid for at the
time the law goes into effect which
caused W. W. Lunger, a member of the
House to reply:
"If they sent their money away for
whisky It Is lost any way, and If they
can t get the whisky they are bette
off."
The crowd applauded.
H. H. Dearmond, District Attorney
of Deschutes County, did not want th
District Attorneys to have the respon
sibility for issuing the permits fo
manufacturing purposes.
Mrs. Jennie M. Kemp and Mrs. Ad
Wallace Unruh, officials of the W.
T. TJ. congratulated the committee fo
its success in drafting the bill. Mrs.
Kemp said that she has had complain
from the decent citizens of Hornbrook
Cal., against the undesirables who have
drifted into me place since Oregon wen
dry.
The committee will hold public meet
ings every day this week and expects
to have the bill up for third reading In
1 the House on Friday or Saturday. More
Plan Would Slake ex-Normal Prop
erty Available for Girls.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or.. Jan. 22.

bers from the joint ways and means
committee will investigate what it will
cost to place the old normal school
buildings at Ashland, Drain and Wes
ton In suitable condition to house girls
that otherwise would go to the Indus
trial School at Salem.
Representative Childs suggested that
these old buildings might be used as
girls schools, and the present Girls
School at Salem be used as an exten
sion of the State School for the Feeble
Minded. Such a move, he said, might
ooviate the need of constructing
number of new buildings asked.
Representatives Childs, Ashley and
Stephens and Senators Gill and Farrell
were named as members of the investi
gating committee.

Some men would gamble with anything, from a
counterfeit coin to life and property and all that they
or others hold dear.
But at least they gamble for some stake which to
them if to no one else seems worth the gamble.
They do not risk their whole fortunes with only a few
dollars to' gain.
"Why then, if time be precious, would they risk
all the time allotted them here on earth, for the sake
of a few moments of it now?
Yet, strange to say, this is just what some motorists
do when they fail to stop to put on Tire Chains before
driving over wet-slippery-skiddy streets. They gamble
their automobiles, their limbs, their very lives, and the
lives of others on the road for no more than a little
of their time to put on Weed Chains, the only
dependable safeguard against skidding.

H. H. COREY GIVES VIEWS
advantages to the utility are as follows:
1. They recelva what Is in effect a
perpetual franchise.
2. They are relieved of the necessity
of providing an amortization fund.
3. They are assured a fair price In case
their plana Is purchased by the municipality
within which they operate.
On the other hand, the permit Is of great
benefit to the stats by avoiding cut-throat
competition and gives the municipality the
power at any time to purchase the public
utilities within their limits at a fair price.

SALEM, Or, Jan. 22. (Special.)
Drafe of the bill amending the public
utilities act so as to include the certi
fication of public necessity and con
venience clause is now virtually com
plete and the bill probably will be
introduced at once.
It is probable, also, upon toe sugges
tion of 11. H. Corey. Public Service
Commissioner, who is championing the
insertion of the clause in the act, that
an indeterminate permit provision will
be incorporated. The provision sug
gested is such as is found in the Wis
consin law and is said to have worked
much to the satisfaction of the people
of that state.
In commenting upon the proposed
clause and the indeterminate permit
provision Mr. Corey said today:
As there seems to t some misapprehen
sion as to the result that would follow the
adoption of the certificate of public neces
sity and convenience clause In our public
utility law, I wish to explain that the law
Is designed for the benefit of the public
anu not primarily of the utility, although
It Inevitably operates to the advantage of
both. The utility has uo vested right to
Its monopoly. It must meet competition
whenever for any reason public good wilt
be thereby promoted. If, therefore, a utility
in any case cannot meet the reasonable
demands of the public for service and some
other utility can, then such other utility
ought to be permitted and must be per
mitted to render the needed service.
1 believe that by Including in the amend
ment an indeterminate permit provision.
such as found In the Wisconsin law and
considered by the people of that state
the foundation stone of the regulation of
utilities. It would strengthen the certificate
of public necessity and convenience clause
and would no doubt remove some of the
misapprehension on the part of some peo-
Die.
Such permit, running without limit as
to time, has attached .thereto the following
conditions:
1. If any corporation within a munici
pality has complied with the requirements
of such statute, no franchise shall be
granted to any similar concern within the
same municipality unless It Is found that
public convenience and necessity require
such second utility.
2. -The corporation, under suco permit,
consents to the purchase of Its plant by
the municipality at a price fixed by the
commission, with the right to appeal to
the courts on the question of price. The

Don't Experiment With Catarrh;
It Often Leads to Dread Consumption
You Will Never Be Cured by
Local Treatment With
Sprays and Douches.
Catarrh Is a condition of the blood
and cannot be cured by local applica
tions of sprays and douches: this haa
been proven by the thousands who
have vainly resorted to this method of
treatment.
Catarrh should not be neglected or
experimented with. The wrong treat
ment is valuable time lost, during
which the disease is getting a firmer
hold upon its victim, and making it
more difficult for even the proper
treatment to accomplish results.
Though Catarrh makes its first ap
pearance in the nostrils, throat and
r
air passages, the disease becomes more
and more aggravated and finally
reaches down into the1 lungs, and
everyone recognizes the alarming con
dition that results when the lungs are
affected. Thus Catarrh may be the
forerunner of that most dreaded and
hopeless of all diseases, consumption.
No local treatment affords perma
nent relief. Experience has taught
