TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1917. LABOR DEFEATED IN FIGHT Ofl FIRST AID Amendment to Accident Act Passes Second Reading in House at Olympia. ROAD BILLS ARE OFFERED Appropriation Measures Inspire IMstrlcta to Lobby for Share of Improvement Work Lewis Asks for Sew Bridge. 1 "L.YMPIA. Wash.. Feb. 15. (Spe cial.) With scarcely noticeable oppo sition the Reed-McCoy first-aid amend ment to the industrial insurance law today resisted all attempts at revision other than approved by committee, nothing of which materially changes the bill. On behalf of opposing labor Interests, Reid, of Spokane, attempted to attack a referendum clause, but he was un able to command the support of 10 members necessary to a roll-call, and the bill passed second reading in the House, the amendatory stage, carrying an emergency provision which will. If sustained, prevent the referendum be ing invoked. Against the referendum proposal, Mark Reed, one of the authors of the bill, argued that first-aid relief is needed immediately by worklngmen under the industrial insurance act and that labor interests can amend it by the initiative at the next election If they are still dissatisfied with it, which would be as prompt remedial action as could be obtained through invoking the referendum at this time. Labor Opposes Division of Cost Labor's principal stated objection to the act is the provision by which em ployer and employe pay an equal share of the cost of first-aid attendance, the assessments running from one to three cents a day, according to the class of risk. The bill goes to third reading with nearly certain prospects of pass ing both House and Senate. Two years ago Governor Lister suc cessfully invoked the Supreme Court against an emergency clause he did not approve of, establishing a precedent for opposing such clauses on any legis lation but that demanded for the pub lic welfare, but it Is generally believed that the first-aid law will be accepted by the Governor in this instance as such legislation. Sponsors for the pending first-aid act believe that if it can have a year's trial it will overcome labor's objection as well as what fault is found with it by employers of the state. ,S0r.,470 Road Bill Offered. State Highway appropriations under the nilllage levy, introduced in both Houses today, carry a total of $6,805,470, of which 3. 942. 01 Is for the benefit of the permanent highway fund under which road improvement is authorized and carried on by counties. Reappro priation of $1,050,180, unexpended bal ance, is also made from the permanent highway fund. The public highway fund appropriation for 'work carried on by the State Highway department Is $1,813,272. . Coincident with Introduction of the road appropriations, Nichols and Lan don. of King, introduced a bill providing that 35 per cent of all road tax money collected from cities shall be expended on arterial highways constructed within city limits, a measure designed to close up gaps where state roads are built up to corporation lines and left uncom pleted by lack of municipal means to continue the work inside. Lewis Wants Bridge. Introduction of the highway appro priations clears the way for maneuver ing by various sections of the state to Influence favorably distribution of the money. As a measure along that line, the Lewis County delegation is already at work to procure the building of a bridge across the Cowlitz at Riffe, where five persons were drowned In the swift current through a ferry boat accident since the session two years ago when the request for a bridge at this point was denied by the Legisla ture. These facts were emphasized last night at a hearing given by the joint road committees to citizens of Kaatern Lewis County. The State Highway Commissioner has made no provision for a bridge at Riffe this session in the road budget, but ' southwestern mem bers are hopeful of arranging a deal whereby, at least, the old bridge at To ledo can be removed to Riffe if a con templated new bridge is built at Toledo. Competitive Bids Wanted. Representative E. E. Shields of Skamania will probably precipitate an other road committee fight by a bill he is drawing to compel the state "highway committee to call for bids on nil state road work costinjr more than $5000. This measure is intended to abolish the force account method of having the work done, by which plan, Shields sajrs, thousands of dollars have beeen wasted in Skamania County alone. Southwestern support has been promised Shields for his bill Jn the House. In evident anticipation of such a restriction. Landon today introduced a Senate bill drawn to confirm the highway commissioners in force ac count operation. The Senate today passed the follow ing bills: s. B. 34. by I4ncoln Davis To license corn doctors. S. B. 67, by Brown Establishing local improvement district lor county road work. Prison Farm Provided For. S. B. 105, by Cox Appropriating $70,000 OUTGREW HER STRENGTH A fine, tall daughter, the pride of her parents, may have grown too fast. If, with her height, ehe is calm, even tempered, rosy, with bright eyes and a springing footstep, you have nothing tr fear for your girl. But this rapid growth is sometimes gained at the ex pense of her Btrength. Wayward tem per, a constant hunger for sweets, head aches, and a pain in the back and side after a little healthy exertion mean that instead of entering womanhood smoothly and without disturbance, aa ehe should, she is paying already the penalty of thin blood. Watch for moods. Look, after she has climbed a hill or run upstairs, for breathlessness, a color that comes and goes, and a heart that beats fast and painfully. These mean anemia, and an anemic girl will never make a healthy, bloom ing woman. She is bloodless. Let her have Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Soon a better appetite bright pyes, calm temper and fresher color in lips and cheeks will tell you she is mak ing new blood. Then all will be well. "Building Up the Blood" is a useful booklet that will be sent freeon request by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your own drug gist sells Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Ten and 20 years' residence is required for temporary and perma nent disability benefits. An extra appropriation committee bill, providing $10,000 additional to the legislative expense bill of $100,000, came into the Senate today. The greatest previous legislative expense was $106,000. S43S4 Wanted by Blind. Another appropriation committee bill provides $4584 for extras in construct ing, the new State School for Blind at Vancouver. An effort to establish a state arbi tration bureau for labor- disputes is at tempted in a-bill empowering the La bor Commissioner to act as arbitrator. Representative Ina R, Williams' House bill raising the age of consent to 18 was amended on second reading in the House by Graham, of Grays Harbor, to Include wives under 18 and include males, as well as females, in the statutory provision. The Senate public morals committee introduced a bill applying the abate ment law principle to places where gambling of any kind Is carried on. This includes betting on elections. House bills introduced today include one by Hodgdon. of Grays Harbor, to authorize an Investigation of the State Auditor's office under supervision of tha Governor and State Insurance Com missioner. The scope of this proposed investigation, which was urged by Gov ernor Lister in his inaugural message, covers the period from 1909 to 1917. Another bill by Crawford, of Klickitat, legalizes petitions signed' by 25 persons for irrigation district improvements. Troop B. of Tacoma, now at Vancou ver Barracks, was invited by Speaker K.elly today to visit the Legislature on the way home from Calexico.

MEDICINE VENDORS SUE ACTIOS STARTED TO OBTAIN EX EMPTION FRO LICENSE. Men Selling Patent Componnds From Wagons Contend They Are Not to Be Classed as Itinerants. E. H. Anderson and 33 other vendors of patent medicines in the state of Oregon filed suit in the Circuit Court yesterday ' to determine their invio lability from provisions of the drug laws demanding licenses of itinerant peddlers, or, failing in this, to have the law declared unconstitutional. The action is filed against the State Pharmacy Board, District Attorney Evans, Sheriff Hurlburt and Special Agents Scott and Jeffries of the Board, and follows the recent conviction or two salesmen in the court of District J-udge Dayton for selling without li censes. The cases have been appealed to the Supreme Court. The plaintiffs In the action represent that they sell from wagons and auto mobiles patent medicines produced by the J. R. Watkins Medical Company. They have central depots of supplies in the state,, are citizens and taxpayers and therefore, they contend, are exempt from classification with itinerant ped dlers of fake nostrums. Their competition with city and coun try druggists, grocerymen and general storekeepers has led to an attempt to throttle them by the invocation of this law, they charge.

GRADUATED TAX Oil BEQUESTS FAVORED House Passes Measure of Rep resentative Eaton Without Dissenting Vote. APPROPRIATIONS ARE MADE Clash Over Rogue River Fishing Bill 'Fails to Materialize and Sensation of Session Is Agree ment of Malheur Members. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 15. (Special.) Somo substantial addi tions to the state's declining revenues win be provided by Representative Eaton's bill, raising the inheritance tax rates, which passed the House today. The bill specifies a graduated rate of taxation on bequests running from 1 per cent on sums of $5000 to 8 per cent on sums in excess of $200,000. The measure met with general sup port. Members on every side expressed themselves heartily in favor of any plan that would make the people who inherit large fortunes bear a bigger share of the tax burden. Representative Eaton spoke only briefly. He received a splendid per sonal compliment and his bill an un usual indorsement, for the vote was unanimous. This was probably the most Im portant in a. big grist of House and Senate bills passed by the House to day. By working until well towards 7 o'clock tonight the House cleaned up its calendar and avoided the necessity of holding a night session. Rogue River Clash Avoided. 1 The expected fight ' over Senator Smith's Rogue River fish bill, the bill that precipitated a clash between Rep resentative Thomas and Speaker Stan field yesterday evening, didn't de velop. The bill came up for final pass age, but Thomas declined to speak against It. Representatives Gore and Bel land led the opposition in his place. Representative Sweeney championed the bill on the floor. He had the other Democrats and the Stanfield organiza tion with him and the rollcall gave him an easy victory. The bill extends the season for commercial fishing in the Rogue River at Grants Pass 45 days in the SSpring of the year. The House put in a. large part of the day working on appropriation bills. Two or three attempts were made to throw wrenches into the machinery, but the ways and means committee re ports were sustained in every instance. Mr. Jones Wants Curb Placed.. Representative Jones, of Lsie County, objected to the item of $1800 for the annual salary of E. F. Carlin, chief clerk in the educational depart ment, inasmuch as the law allows him, he said, to "dip over" into the State Examiner's fund and draw out an ad ditional $700 a year giving him a yearly salary of $2500. Jones and Burton both objected to the allowance of $1200 to the Htate Superintendent for traveling expenses. Representative Goode tried to kill the appropriation of $40,000 for the University of Oregon medical school, but the House refused to sustain him. Many Appropriations Approved.

Senator Pierce's amendment to the delinquent tax law reducing the rate of interest on tax -cerfllicates from 15 per cent, to 12 per cent also went through the House with a big vote. The House was furnished a pleasant diversion when Senator Hurley's bill regulating procedure in serving notices for the equalization of taxes came up. Hurley and Representative Crandall both are from Malheur County. They seldom agree on anything, but this aft ernoon Crandall got up and spoke for Hurley's bill. He said that his sup port ought to recommend the bill to the House. The boys must have thought so, because they gave it a tremendous vote.

CoprritM H&rt ScWfner a Mr ' Portland's Largest Exclusive BANDDN MAN IS 1 James Haft Born in Year of Revolution. CRISIS NOW IS CONTRASTED Arrival In Oregon Dates to 1852 and Life Is Passed in Pioneer Ac tivities, Trail Being Blazed to Par Remote Regions. BANDON. Or., Feb. 15. (Special.) Born during the heat of a war in which the United States gained free dom of the seas. James Haft, of this city, today celebrated his 105th birth day with the Nation under the shadow ing cloud of an impending war which, if it comes, will be brought about by the same causes as the War of 1812. Should hostilities occur as a result of the present state of affairs between the United States and Germany, he will have seen Great Britain changed from the role of enemy to that of an ally of the United States in conflict against a common enemy. Mr. Haft has seen the United States at war upon four different occasions; he knows war both from the standpoint of the soldier and that of "the old. folks at home." He realises the horror and terrors of it and is an ardent ad vocate of international peace, yet he Is a staunch supporter of President Wil son and his policy In the present crisis. From early boyhood Mr. Haft's life has been that of a pioneer, a life of hardship and adventure. Born jn West ern Pennsylvania February IS, 1812. he started to shift for himself in his early 'teens. Always in the van of the west ward expanding civilization, he was among those who fought their way across the continent, arriving on the Pacific Coast in 1852. In the Spring of 1853 Mr. Haft settled in Scottsburg,' Douglas County, then a hustling min ing camp, and distinguished himself as a scout in the Indian wars of that and the following year. With peace established between the Indians and the whites, the miners, who heretofore had moved about in strong numbers for protection, began to spread out in search of new claims and Mr. Haft became known as "Jim" Haft, packer. His pack trains of mules and horses became familiar sights in all of the principal mining centers of the coast: he guided them over the trails from Scottsburg to Crescent City and Yreka, Cal., eastward Into and back through Washington and North ern Oregon. Into the Florence region, on the lower Umpqua River, and other more remote sections, he blazed the trail followed by the first white set tlers. The packing business died, how ever, with the gradual death of mining (with farming, stockralslng, dairying and lumbering came the railroads and steamboats, a form of competition too efficient for the packmule) and Mr. Haft took up ranching In Northern Curry County, where he remained unUl coming to Bandon a year ago.
