0 TIIE 3IORXING OREGONIAX, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY G, 1910. DEVELOPMEIVr PLANS -FOR STATE NUMEROUS Many Bonding Schemes Pre sented to Legislature. PAY RISE BILLS POUR IN Vp to Present Legislature lias Been Bombarded With About 50 Re quests for Salary Increases. STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or., Feb. 5. (Special.) Legislation intended to promote the developmnet of Oregon has not been overlooked this session, and if the various measures with this purpose in view are approved, the Legislature will be able to point to something accomplished other than a stream of salary-raising bills. And as to the latter, there are about 60 salary hoisting bills. Moat or these development bills re quire funds in large quantities. As a rule, they call for bond issues. They are aimed to open up Oregon's re sources of land and water power; to bring into beinff steamer lines to stimulate commerce and navigation, and to provide roads for all sections of the state. Theue are the main meas ures, which are supplemented by sev eral minor ones. Bills Labor Creators. Primarily, the farmer is benefited, and industry" advanced. Potentially, these measures are creators of labor, for to carry out aimoet any one of them will require the services of an army of skilled and common laborers. Development through irrigation forms a considerable part of the pro gramme. Congress has been memori alized to enact the Sinnott bill, ap propriating a billion dollars for recla mation work in the West. The recla jnation service has plans all laid for work in Oregon, but cannot turn a wheel until Congress provides the financial grease. Enactment of the Sinnott bill is urged because there will be no loss of time in eetting the recla mation machinery in motion. Again, Congress has been urged to speed up on the Owyhee project. Bond Guarantee Proposed. As though not expecting too much from Congress, the Oregon Legislature is putting an anchor to windward on the line of self-help. More rapidly to make usable the arid lands, there is a proposal asking the state to guaran tee the bonds of irrigation development projects. Also, there is a measure to deal with swamp lands and logged-off lands by the creation of improvement districts. Through drainage and irri gation, millions of acres can be re claimed for agircultural purposes, and in turn fatten the tax rolls. In aid of commerce there are com panion bills, one authorizing ports to vote bonds amounting to five per cent of the assessed valuation, to be used for general purposes, and the other au thorizes bonuses for transportation These twin measures were brought to Salem by representatives of the Port land Chamber of Commerce, and are in line with similar measures which heretofore appeared in a previous ses sion of the Legislature. A soldier set tlement bill, calling for $250,000, is un der consideration: this measure plan ning one model farm in each county. It is admitted as experimental and only a start toward solving the settlement problem. Water Power Bills Tp. For the state to harness the water power now going to waste is one of the most important of the development schemes. The plan is to submit the proposition to the people. As to finance it would necessitate the expenditure of millions. Hydro-electric companies do not relish the idea of the state's entering into competition, but the House joint resolution has so many sponsors six, to be exact that i stands a chance of finding its way to the ballot at the next election. Creation of a market commission can be classified as a development meas ure. The bill in the Senate has the support of the Grange, the State Chamber of Commerce, the banking in terests and the business interests. It is intended to aid farmers in market ing their product. Of all the varied development bills, SOURS THE FOOD Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid Is Cause of In digestion. A well-known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion . are nearly always due to acidity acid stomach and not, as most folks believe, from a lack of digestive juices. He states that an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach retards digestion and starts food fermentation, then our meals sour like garbage in a can, form ing uric acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy Balloon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we eructate sour food, belch gas. or have heartburn, flatu lence, water-brash, or nausea, . . He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonf ul in a glass or water De fore breakfast while it is effervescing, and furthermore, to continue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose, it is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices. Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phosphate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent results. Adv. INDIGESTION Relieved in Two Minutes-Absolutely Harmless Send us your name and address, plain ly written, and we will send you on approval our stomach preparation, Jo-to, for 30 days, at which time you are to send us $1.00 or return the un used portion if not perfectly satisfied. Relieves Gas, Sour Stomach (heart burn). Belching. Swelling and Full Feeling so frequently complained of after meals in Two Minutes. Almost instant relief from Pains in the Stom ach caused by undigested food. Address: Bellingham Chemical Co., Bellingham, Wash. Afv. AID STOMACH that of roads is the one certain to be passed. Others may be, but the road programme will be. In addition to the bond bill to carry out the road system adopted by the people the electorate will be asked to authorize a bond issue for $2,500,000 for the construction of a "Roosevelt highway," a coastal road from one end of the state to the other. This road, which has been personally advocated by Louis J. Simpson before the road com mittee, is one long dreamed of. The bonds, however, are contingent on the Government's co-operation, and if the Government does not see fit to build the road the bonds will not be issued. Road Districts Suggested. To provide the state with local roads, which the Highway Commission cannot build under the bond act, L-J. Adams, former Highway Commissioner, has written a measure enabling the creation of road districts, these dis tricts to bond themselves to 5 per cent of the assessed valuation, (and the bonds to be retired serially. This new bill is contended as the solution of the local road question. SALARY BILLS ARE PERMITTED Efforts to Suppress Measures De feated In Senate. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or.. Feb. 5. (Special.) Efforts to suppress all bills increasing salaries of county of ficials were defeated on the floor of the Senate today when a resolution, offered by Senator Porter, and de manding a special committee to inves tigate all salary bills, was defeated by a vote of 10 to 16. Members of the Senate said they were willing to leave salary questions to the good judgment of the legislative delegations from the various counties affected by euch bills. MR. TAFT ASKED TO SPEAK Legislative Committee to Meet ex President in Portland. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or.. Feb. D. w (Special.) Ex - President "William Howard Taft will be asked to address a joint meeting of the House and Sen ate during his shoft visit to Oregon next week In the interests of the pro posed league of nations. Mr. Taft will bo in Portland on February 16 and 17. and a special legislative committee will wait upon him and ask him to come to Salern to address the lawmakers. A resolution asking for this meeting was introduced today by Senator Orton, of Multnomah County. TAX OX GASOLIXE PROVIDED Measure Introduced for Levy or One Cent a Gallon. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 5. (Special.) The first bill to run the gauntlet of the legislative committee was introduced today by the commit tee on roads and highways. The meas ure provides a tax of 1 cent a gallon on gasoline and half a cent on distil late. Another bill had been introduced on this subject .early in the session, but that measure failed to provide for the administration of the measure and also imposed a tax of a cent a gallon on distillate. Legislative Sidelights. PI TATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 5. O (Special.) Dr. Ernest S. Sommer, director-general against the flu in Port land, spent the day In the Statehouse discussing the school legislation and the health bill. Charles F. Adams left his banking interests in Portland to dine at Salem with Charles Spence, of the State Grange, and discuss the market bill. Chairman Gordon, of the House ways and means, also had his feet under the table and the dinner was paid for by Robert Smith, editor of the Tax Liber ator. A delegation of 20 business men pha lanxed into the Statehouse from Salem to object, tonight, to the anti-trust bill. They explained that they have no ob jection to the principle of the bill, but if enacted as drawn a safety razor can not be sold in Oregon, nor even a talk ing machine. William North and Fred Martin, In- durance men, are camping on the trail LW'r a bill which they suspect has been fathered by the big agents in Portland. The bill would wipe out mtfst of the agents in the state, they contend, and put all the business in the hands of a lew. They are "agin" it. mm Peter Grant, as dignified as ever, has come to Salem to look at the proceed- ngs. rie says he is only interested in a patent arrangement which makes all sorts of paper containers and isn't bothering with the colons. a Representative Stewart, of Fossil, is on the trail of coyotes. Last night he made one or the most thrilling talks yet heard during the session to the ways and means committee urging that a portion of the coyote bounty money be retained. However, he also believes that the Government plan should be adopted as well, and the money be di- viuea lor use in the two plans. Colonel W. G. D. Mercer, sergeant at-arms of the Senate, showed himself this morning to be a good substitute clergyman, as well as a handler of unruly legislators. The clergkyman who was to open the sessions with prayer today iauea to put in an appearance, and Colonel Mercer came to the rescue with offerings in both the House and Senate, which won him warm congratu lations.

BIG STEAM ROLLER SOUNDS FIRST TOOT Followers of Burdick Give Ex hibit of Power. LITTLE GOPHER BILL HIT Strong Organization Develops for Higher Salaries of Many State and County Officials. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 6. (Special.) The first toot of the Bur dick steam roller which threatens to blow into a roar before the week is over, sounded the initial unharmonlous note of the session this morning when the House defeated a minor gopher bounty bitf proposed by the Marion County delegation. The chorus of "Noes' that answered the roll call against the bill showed a distinct slap back at Speaker Jones for his vitriolic talk yesterday afternoon against the Burdick bill which raises the salary of justices of the Supreme Court from $4500 to $5250 a year and also for the alleged Tight wad attitude of Marlon County members generally. An overnight frameup among the original Burdick following, with euch accessions as have become disgruntled about committee appointments and for other reasons since Speaker Jones has been wielding the gavel, centered its attention on the little Marion County bill, but more is promised to follow. Speaker's Attitude Rebuked. . '. The main object of insurgents now is to place the Burdick bill increasing salaries of Supreme Justices back at $6000 a year, as originally introduced, and pass it as a rebuke to the speak er's attitude. ' In the overnight "frameup" last night a tentative agreement was reached with Senate leaders to amend the bill as it passed the House, by placing the $6000 salary provision into it in lieu of the $5350 provision as it passed the House, and return it to the House for concurrence. The Burdick insurgents declare that if the Senate keeps faith with the House and In serts the amendment desired, there will be a sufficient muster roll of House votes to put it over. With the Senate personnel predominating in lawyers, it is believed the amendment for the further increase in salaries may be secured without considerable difficulty in the upper body. More Salaries to Be liaised. Burdick has sent to the desk for reference to the legislative committee a bill providing for increasing the salary of the Governor to $7500. the Secretary of State to $6000, the State Treasurer to $6000, and the Attorney General to $5000. He will also send up tomorrow another bill to provide the Governor with a mansion. Speaker Jones was innocent of the move against him, even after the House had" rolled up 29 negative votes against the Marion County bounty bill. and only 17 votes had been cast in favor of it. Later, when he discovered the lineup which had developed against the House organization, he hinted that if the insurgent are seek ing a fight they can secure it on fu ture tests, and the speaker was align ing his forces quietly today to meet future onslaughts. After the Burdick steamroller or ganization had played with the gopher bounty bill for a time, word went down the line to vote for it. Jones as a test this afternoon secured re-consideration of the measure but gained only 30 votes, not sufficient to pass it. How ever, when it finally went to third reading it passed unanimously, word going down the line among the insur gents to support the bill. llonae Organization the Tantet They state that the test had been made on the measure and the measure itself was not the target but rather they were aiming at the house organ ization. On final passage, Jones took the floor for the bill and sent his em issaries scurrying into the halls to round-up his men. While there were only 29 votes lined up with the insurgents, when the first vote was taken this morning, they claim that among the absentees there was a sufficient number to practically dominate the house, and apparently, for the time being, at least, control of the House has switched to Burdick. Burdick was defeated for speaker after having a lineup of 8 votes for him. A coalition between Jones, Gor don and Sheldon defeated the Burdick lineup. The staunch Burdick support ers were for a minority organization squarely up to the night before the Legislature met but at a caucus held they decided to vote for Jones and watch developments, biding their time to strike at the psychological moment. Evidently they believe that time has come. HOUSE PASSES 10 MEASURES Highway Commission Voted Author ity to Buy Material. STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or.. Feb. 5. (Special.)

To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arwn; apply it at night when retiring; usf enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. Do this tonight and by morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applica tions will completely dissolve and en tirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. no ma'.ter how much dan druff you may have. You will find, too. that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, und your hair will be fluffy, lus trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.

A quarter ounce of freezone costs very little at any drugstore, but is suf ficient to take off every hard or soft corn or callus.
