MUNICIPAL JUDGE DBXIES RE

Police Court Jurist " Says Officer
Lacked Proper Affidavit to

Municipal Judge Rossman yester

that he had refused to give Patrolma
Russell a warrant to search a house
at 4404 Seventy-first street, where

Patrolmen Huntington and Russell
appeared before him, according to
Judge Rossman's statement, to ob
tain a search warrant. The affidavit,
which had been sworn out by them,
was to the effect that they had "in

judge said. They did not state the
evidence which led to -their belief,
however, and Judge Rossman. told

ALBA NT, Or.. May 4. (Special.)
That a modern business system 'is
needed by the Linn county court
rather than a recall of the members,
to get the county out of its financial
tangle, was the conclusion of Frank
J. Miller, former chairman of the Ore
gon public service commission, in i
report made before the Albany cham
ber of commerce yesterday. Mr. Miller
had been appointed by the chamber to
investigate the county's financial dif
ficulties. He recommended that the county
adopt a modern method of accounting
and checking, employ a highway en
gineer who wiH have absolute charge
of the county road programme, adopt
a system of requisitions in purchas
ing supplies and machinery which
would do away with 40 or 50 different
foremen or 'road supervisors buying
supplies indiscriminately, and a care
ful and accurate inventory of the
county machinery and property each
year. The chamber adopted Mr.
Miller's recommendations and named
a committee to submit them to the
members of the county court.
Mr. Miller opposed the proposed re
call of the members of the court as a
means of improving conditions.
The Linn county Pomona grangs,
which is composed of members of the
various granges of the county, re
cently adopted a resolution favoring
the recall of the court. This action
was taken because the court issued
warrants far in excess of the county's
legal limit of indebtedness and there
are a number of void warrants out
standing.

case:
"Louis Leidl Post, No. 116, fully in
dorses the stand taken by the Ameri
can Legion, department of Oregon, in
condemning the action taken in the
Albers case by the department of
justice. We believe Henry Albers
should not be released upon a techni
cality. Should an error exist the su
preme court should pass upon" the
question.
"We consider the action of the de
partment of justice an Insult to the
American people and a breach of faith
with those who were in the service
The sacrifice was made to defeat the
boche principle. Therefore we de
mand a retrial and punishment of
Henry J. Albers for his pro-German
utterances."

Southern Pacific Official Pays
Tribute to Advertising Work of
Northwest Association.
Compliments on the work of the
Northwest Tourist association were
paid yesterday by Charles S. . Fee,
passenger traffic manager for the
Southern Pacific, who is spending the
week in Portland.
"The work of the NVrthwest Tourist
association has been excellent, Judg
tnsr from what I have observed," he
said, "and will continue bringin
tourists to the Pacific coast.
"I have seen a good deal of the
advertising of this organization and
in my opinion it has been carried on
intelligently and effectively.
"I do not know what the tourist
business will be another year and
do not suppose anyone else does. Cali
fornia had a fair tourist travel, every
thing considered, the past year and
many California visitors return
throne-h the Portland gateway. Our
interests are identical with those of
Oregon and we put out very little
general advertising that does not em
brace the whole macule eoasi.
"It is difficult In these times to tell
what is. ?oinz to happen to the pas
sencer business as a whole and the
tourist travel in particular, but we
believe we have reached the low point
and that the upturn is at hand, in
that event the tourist and passenger
hnsiness is bound to show an in
crease, as the movement closely re
fleets business conditions.
Our nassenger traffic has been
satisfactory as a whole. We expect
the. summer tourist west-bound
rates to bring many new people west
for their summer trips, and the east
hmmj rates similar in effect, will
give our home people opportunity to
visit the east. This will," in all proba
bility, result in more visitors coming
west this vear and in future seasons.
because every westerner who goes
ast will Dicture the Pacific coast
as the country's great vacation land.

FISHING Li ATTACKED
IMPORTANT ACTION BEGUN IN
ASTORIA COURT.
Act That Forbids Trolling for Sal
mon Off Coast in May and
June Held Void.
ASTORIA, Or., May 4. (Special.)
A suit to test the constitutionality oi
the law which prohibits the catching
K - . nrA flch HV
or salmon aim vmcr -.
trolling off the coast of Oregon li
May and June was filed In the cir
ruit court this morning.
The action was brought by C. E.
Ford, James Davidson, J. R. Gilfillan
and William Stoddard against Carl D.
Shoemaker, state fish warden, and
John Larson, deputy, and the com
plaint says it is in behalf of all per
sons engaged in trolling.
The complaint asks for an injunc
tion, and a temporary order was
granted by Judge Kakin. restraining
the defendants from lnterrering witu
the plaintiffs or any other persons
in trolling for fish between May 1
and August 25 of this year, without
regard to where the lish are taken,
and particularly as to the possession
of fish taken in waters outside the
hntinHaripM nf the state.
in asking that the act referred to
be declared unconstitutional, the com
plaint avers that the law is in con
flict with section 8 of the United
States constitution, which reserves to
congress the power to regulate com,
merce with foreign nations and be
tween the several states. It asserta
that the act is void, as the state legis
lature has no power to regulate the
manner of taking fish in the Pacific
ocean: also that it deprives the citi
zens of the state of the use of food
fish which abound In the Pacific
oceam
The complaint further contends that
the act is void because it attempts
to give the gillnet fishermen a
monopoly in the catching of fish in
the Pacific ocean and is in conflict
with -the treaty or fishing compact
between the states of Washington and
Oregon.

Edward M. Cousin, acting for Linn.
Lane, Lincoln and Benton counties,
yesterday filed with the state public
service commission a new petition for
rehearing In the telephone rate case.
In this is emphasized the effect of
the recent rate rises on rural com
munities, particularly at Milwaukie,
Oak Grove and Oswego, which serv
ice is said to be on a "pay s you
enter" basis, added to local exchange
charges. The farmer line service is
declared to be burdensome and very
unsatisfactory and the commission is
charged with failing to foresee the
results of Its order Increasing rates,
Mr. Cousin made the following
statement of the case:
"Instead of adopting the petition
filed by the city of Portland some
weeks ago, the Willamette valley
people make 12 allegations of erron
eous findings of fact and conclusions
of law on the part of the commission.
They say the rates fixed by the com
mission could not lawfully go Into
effect on March 1 because the com
nanv must first file a tariff estab
lishing them, that the commission
erred in fixing the value of the prop
erty in the state at i,aat,ei De
cause the long distance lines are in
eluded.
"Criticism i made of the consid
eration given by the commissien to
the company's alleged requirements
for new capital and proposed future
extensions In fixing present rates for
the reason that the puDiic may not
lawfully be forced to pay rates based
upon contingencies.
"The commission Is not the general
tnanaeer nf the company and has no
power to dictate its policies ana couia
not recompense tne ri')cr
failure of the company to carry out
an oDerating or corairutuuu

"At the time I began taking Tanlae
I only weighed one hundred and ten
pounds, but now 1 weigh one hundred
and thirty, and feel Just as well si
I ever did in my life." said Mrs. Marls
Blomlie, wife of C. A. Hloinllo, resid

Seattle.
Two years ago I suffered a nerv.
ous breakdown, ana scemea 10 io?a
my strength entirely. My food seemed
to do me no good, and I ate only be
cause I knew I had to. I often suf
fered from sour stomach, and my
nerves were so unstrung I just dread
ed for night to come, as It only meant
long hours of restlessness and suffer
ing. I felt so tired and run down all
the time I could hardly do my little
housework, and many days couldn't
do a bit of It. The least little exertion
would tire me out completely and
make my back burt so bad 1 could
hardly stand it.
I kept reading about Tanlao until
I decided to try It, and now I know
for myself that everything they said
about it was so, for It certainly is
wonderful the way it has helped me. .
It has toned up my stomach, given m
fine appetite and built me up so
well I never feel a trace of nervous
ness or any other trouble any more.
I sleep well and feel fins all the tlma.
My husband and I both praise Tanlao
every time we can." Tanlac Is sold
