J. n. Abott. member of the Mnltno

In the week will Introduce in tne tiooss
the bill for an art authorizing- the crea
tion of retirement fund aaaociauon.

reamers in e. n w i uin,..i r. -
nnw or hereafter having more man iv,
000 children of arhool aice. and providing-
a fund out of which the annultera
may be paid.
The bill mainly provides a method of
procedure by which the teachers In any
district having; nutficient acnooi popu
lation mar incorporate for the purpose
of creatine- and operating- a retirement
fund. It also authorises tne aiversion
of public funds to the extent of 2 per
cent of the state apportionment to the
district, such funds to supplement
moneys contributed by the members
themselves.
The committee which ha been pre
pa rtna; the bill began working- on the
plan several months ajto. The members
first obtained all poseiDie iniormaiion
on the subject by writing- for bills, ar
ticles of Incorporation and reports or
similar funds. Material poured In from
all aides, from Oermany. where the
scheme Is nation-wide; from New Jer
sey. Colorado and California, where It
ts state-wide, and from dosens of cttlei.
Including- Greater New )ork. Chicago,
tfan Francisco and St. Paul. Several
atates are now considering such a
measure, notably Washington.
IX-tall Not Restricted.
After careful comparison and consid
eration It was decided to follow the
example of states like Minnesota, where
the legislative authorization consists
merely In an enabling act rather than
one specifying to a Jot or title the en
tire management for all time to come.
A reasonable safeguard Is provided In
making the articles of Incorporation
subject to the approval of toe board of
school directors.
If the bill passes, then the teachers
of Portland will proceed immediately
to organize themselves Into a corpora
tion for the purpose of carrying out
the provisions of the act. All teachers
In the district will be eligible for mem
bership. At least a majority of the
present teaching corps must Join to
make the Incorporation legal. All mem
bers will pay the same dues, fl a
month for the first 10 years, $2 -a
month for the second period of 10 years
and $1 a month for the third period
of 10 years. They will receive a flat
annuity of 1500 after teaching 30 years,
at least 10 of which must be In the
district. In emergency cases, teachers
may be retired after 20 years service
on a graduated scale of annuities,
reaching from f SS3 1-1 the twentieth
year until the maximum of J600 ia
reached.
Refund Are Allowed.
Resigning teachers receive a refund
of one-half their payments. Dropped
members will be reimbursed la f 'I1!. j

Further Investigation of the charges
against State Food and Dairy Com
missioner Bailey wlil be taken up by
the grand Jury, based upon the bien
nial report of the commissioner, now
In the hands of District Attorney Cam
eron. Mr. Bailey says that he has no
Intention of resigning, that lie Is In
nocent of any Irregularity and that he
i-.as been at all times willing to ap
aalar the grand Jury.
Members who have taught any num
ber of years may have these years
oount by paying- up back dues with
compound interest at 6 per cent. A
permanent fund of $50,000 will be ac
cumulated before any annulters will be
paid. This period of accumulation la
estimated at six years. -
The teachers assume by far the larg
er financial burden, asking the public
about 11500 a year, or 10 per cent o
the estimated Income the sixth year
when annulters become available.
Teachers are confident that the publio
will be glad to make such a modest
contribution rather than ruthlessly drop
teachers who have taught their school
children for 20 or more years.

Association Would Protec
Law From Abuse by Towns.
POPULATION MUST BE 500
Liquor-Regulation Body Frames
Bills Requiring 100 Signatures)
on Petitions Asking Incor
porations of Hamlets.
Amendments to the existing law of
the state relative to the incorporation
of towns, designed to make it impos
sible to take undue advantage of the
Home Rule amendment with respect
to the liquor traffic have been prepared
by the Greater Oregon Home Rule As
sociation and will be urged for adop
tion before the Legislature at Salem.
The new act differs from the old In
that there must be COO inhabitants
within the area proposed to be lncor
porated, and the petition asking incor
poration, for presentation to the County
Court, must bear the signatures of 60
per cent of the voters to be affected by
Incorporation, but in no case shall
more than 100 signatures be required.
The existing law permits Incorpora
tion with 160 Inhabitants and only 40
signatures are necessary to make the
petition valid for consideration.
In making the maximum number of
signatures required only 100 there waa
taken Into consideration the fact that
thla is usually about the number of
voters in a community of 600 persons,
the ratio generally being about one
to five.
It was feared that the amendment to
the state constitution giving to munici
palities the right to regulate the liquor
traffic within their own borders would
be the signal for the incorporation of
a lot of "one-horse" towns. The pas
sage of the proposed new law would to.
a great extent. It is believed, eliminate
this danger.
LOOAIj OPTION' NOT ABSOLUTE
Decision Hold Home Rule Not In
Opposition to Previous Law.
GRANTS PASS, Or., Jan. 2L (Special.)
In the case of the State of Oregon
against Jack Whltsett and 11 others under
indictment for selling liquor contrary to
the provisions of the local-option law.
Judge Calkins handed down a decision
Friday, overruling demurrers filed by the
accused men.. The defendants had alleged
that the local option liquor law had
been repealed by the home-rule amend
ment, and consequently, there being no
saving clause, the territory of the city
was Immune from violations of the law.
Judge Calkins holds . that the local-
option law and the constitutional amend
ment can both stand and be harmonized
for municipalities; that It was not the
Intention of the legislators or the promo
ters of the home rule to destroy the
local option liquor law, but on the other
hand Its purpose was to round out and
complete the Intent of the constitution
and the initiative and referendum and to
perfect and preserve the local option
law. and v certs in tne municipality tne
exclusive power to license liquor traffic
by proceeding according to the provisions
of the local option law.
In view of such opinion the city Is
now dry and srlil remain so until next ,
Fall, notwithstanding the Council held
an election December 31 upon the ques
tion, at which time popular expression
of the voters- was against prohibition.
If the Council grants license to sell, the
state will prosecute, and the liquor deal
ers now find themselves In close quar
ter There la a strong feeling to press
the peculiar circumstances to a finish
and make a test case that will forever
settle conditions and destroy the fac
tlonal opinions that are being freely
aired. Some definite conclusion will be
reached by the Council at the next
regular meeting on February 18, ss tt will
be 20 days before the liquor ordinance
that was passed Thursday night will go
Into effect.

Doctor's Best Formula
Breaks Severest Cold la a Day and
Cares Any Curable Cough.
This has been published here for
several winters and has proven the
quickest and most reliable formula ob
tainable for cougha and colds. "Get two
ounces of Glycerine and half an ounce
of Concentrated Pine Compound. Then
get half a pint of good whiskey and
put the other two Ingredients into It.
Shake it well and take one to two tea
spoonfuls after each meal and at bed
time. Smaller doses to children accord
ing to age. Be sure to get only the
e-enulne (Globe) Concentrated Pine.
Each half ounce bottle comes In a sealed
tin screw-top case. Any druggist has it
on hand or will quickly get It from his
wholesale house. Any one can mix it.
Don't experiment with preparations be
cause of cheapness. It don't pay to fool
with a bad cold.
A prominent local druggist states
that if this mixture were used prompt
ly by every one catching cold there
would be few deaths trom pneumonia.
that under the law the Board can con
duct business rightfully only when all
members are present.
Four members were present when
Elsen's license was removed: Dr. R. C.

Those absent were Dr. W. S. Mott and

COMPETE WITH US! WHY,
THEY HAVEN'T GOT A CHANCE
While One Dealer Is Fighting With "Thousand Dollar
Challenges" and the Other Throwing Back "Thm Ice,"
We, at 361 Morrison Street, Are Selling New Pianos
Not Old "Slightly Useds," or "Fire Sale" Stuff, nor
"Puzzle Contest" Junk, but Brand New "Superior
Grade" Pianos
For Less Than Half the Money Either or Any of Them
Will Deliver You a New Piano of Equal Grade, Class,
and Quality For. We're Piano Makers; They Are Not.
They Haven't Got a Chance. They Know It, and You
Ought To.
nthor niann dealers can howl, and
blnff vith their evasive "thousand
dollar challenges" all they please,
Hut tliprfi'H nnthinrr in it. This is the
only house or piano concern in this
ritv that is selling new nianos at fac
tory wholesale cost, or anywhere near
it, or that has any reason to do so
and we certainly have.
We built these pianos, and are of
fering, and selling this wrong ship
ment of pianos to Portland rather
than ship them back for less money
than a dealer can buy them for at onr
factory and set them down in this
city.
If that is the fact, and it Is a fact,
how on earth is it possible for any
retail piano dealer who has to buy
his pianos and sell for gain to com
pete with a piano manufacturer who
is not trying to sell for gain, but sell
ing at his own cost to save a Joss?
The idea is preposterous. They
haven't got a chance.
We are selling1 as fine a $400 piano
as there is in this city for $195, and
on terms of $25 down end $10 a
monfh. Others" are only trying to
compete against our prices with
their "second-hand" pianos or cheap
lowest grade "stencil" stuff, such'
as are usually shipped in for "fire
sales" and "puzzle" contests.
If you are in the market for a
piano, and want to buy it at first
hands, of the factory that built it
stepping in ahead of expenses and
profits all the way down the line
from the factory that built it to the
'commission-fiend" that picks it,
amounting up into the hundreds, just
step in to 361 Morrison street, corner
of Park, and you can do that very
thing.'
You can get as fine a piano hero
as you can get anywhere, and save
enough money on it to furnish the
entire parlor to match it. We have i
no legitimate competition on prices,
and we know it, and you will know it :
if you'll only take the pains to look
before it is too late. ,
