Montague, Representing legisla
tive Body of Trade Organiza
tion, Act on Docnmcnts.
Favorable to sustaining the Gov
ernor's veto on one Senate bill of the
1911 session, and expressing disap
proval of seven House bills and two
Senate bills in the present Legislature,
was the report submitted yesterday by
the legislative committee of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce and
adopted by the executive committee
which met with it in Joint session. J.
X. Teal. F. W. Mulkey and R. W. Mon
tague represented the legislative com
mittee. Senate bill 217, of the 1911 session,
which was vetoed by the Governor,
provides for a rule for bringing actions
against corporations different from
that applied to individuals, and makes
it possible for suit to be brought in
any town in which one of the traveling
salesmen of the corporation might be.
The committee emphatically favored
the sustaining of the Governor's veto.
The "anti-trust bills" consisting of
Penate bill 3 and House bills 106 and
128, met with a long list of objections
from the legislative committee. Among
these they declared the provision for
. fines, in the Senate bill, upon the basis
of per cent of capital stock for in
vestment will have the effect of
making the maximum and minimum
tines for the same offense not uniform,
which condition was opposed as "arbi
trary." Term ot Clear.
The provision that the bill shall not
apply to labor organisations was sug
gested as something that may possibly
affect the constitutionality of the bill,
if passed. The use of the term "trust
certificate," it was also pointed out,
is used without the meaning being
made sufficiently clear.
In House bill 128 It is provided that
anyone convicted of conspiracy under
common law shall be subject to the
tirovlsions of this act, but the com
mittee points out that there are no
nmmon law crimes in this state and
that section of the bill is not broad
enough to be considered an adoption
of the common law nennmon or. con
srjlracv.
In section 10 of this bill the com
mitteee opposes the provisions that
the District Attorney shall be allowed
one-fifth of the fine, or If the At
tornev-General assists him they shall
be jointly allowed one-fourth, on the
ground that it is opposed to any
svstem of law which would reward a
public official beyond his regular
salary for performance or nis amy.
Postponement on Some Crgred.
Thfl series of House bills directed
toward the revision of the school
svstem, particularly In towns having
more than 10.000 children of school
age, was opposed and the committee
recommended that penaing tne pro
posed investigation- into the school
system of Portland by the special com
mittee appointed for that purpose, all
bills tending to make radical changes
In the existing school laws, should
be postponed of passage.
The constitutionality of Senate bill
39 regulating business of commission
merchants, is questioned by the com
mittee and for that reason the passage
of the bill is opposed. It Is also held
that it places to much arbitrary power
in the hands of the Executive official
and that its clauses requiring all bonds
to be executed by a surety company
1 monopolistic in its effect.
The report submitted yesterday is
the second that the legislative com
mittee has made since the present ses
sion of Legislature opened. Daily bul

(Special.) That the State Legisla

mittee. He states that meeting under these
conditions the Legislators could go
home and for the six months adjourn

are to come up to them for consider

their own study and the sugegstions
that are made by their friends and
constituents, they could come back to

LIKENESS OF SENATOR DRAWN" WITH KEVBOARD BV MISS
HEDVIG CARLSON.
FTATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 31. (Special.) President Dan J.
Malarkey. of the State Senate, has been literally captured on the type
writer. In the work of a few minutes. Miss Hedvig Otelia Carlson,
one of the stenographers on the engrossed bills committee of the
State Senate, secured the accompanying picture of President Malarkey,
and accomplished entirely on the typewriter. Nothing but dashes,
parentheses and periods were used, and the work was done with star
tling rapidity.
Miss Carlson first drew a sketch of President Malarkey, and from
this did her work on the machine.
Miss Carlson was formerly a resident of Salem, but recently re
moved to Westminster, B. C. She has traveled all over the continent,
but says that Portland is the best place to live, placing her second
choice as Salem. She is 22 years old. She has never received any in
struction in drawing or art, and what work she has done has all been
through natural talents and the exercise .of her eye.

Sub-Committee of Senate Judiciary
Body, Including Senators Butler,
Thompson and McColloch.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 1.
(Special.) The sub-committee of the
Senate Judiciary committee, named to
frame a compromise measure tor tne
McColloch bill granting to the Gov
ernor nowers to supplant Sheriffs. Con
stables and District Attorneys for
periods of 90 days each, will Include
Senators Butler, Thompson and Mc
Colloch. It is probable the committee will get
to work on the proposed compromise at
once to turn it into the Senate Judi
ciary committee. The bill probably
will be sent In turn into the Senate
with a favorable report.
That even the proposition of a com
promise has been reached is considered
a victory for Senator McColloch, who
declared that he would rather see leg
islation of that nature go through than
any other that he might cast his vote
for during the session.
"The possibilities of misuse of the
measure seem larger now than in times
of peace." said Mr. McColloch. "Not
that there is any particular war, but
I am referring to the movement known
as the vice crusade which has been
inaugurated by the Governor. At any
other time I am satisfied that there
would be no opposition to the measure
as it is introduced, save possibly for a
minor amendment which would give to
the officer under fire a chance for a
speedy hearing.
"For myself I believe the statute
would be more effective in its ex
istence than in its use. No man would
dare misuse a statute of this kind.
Public sentiment would crucify him,
and public sentiment is the most ef
fective weapon in the bill. I for one
know that in the vice crusade of the
Governor the greatest good that was
accomplished was putting the fear into
the hearts of the peace officers and
other officers of the law.
"With such a statute aB Is proposed

vie,..n.A nf nlmllflr tT 1 ATfiTf 1 V fltmillLr
provisions, on the statute books In
other states.
Apparently the bill as it now reads,
however, would have but little chance
of meeting the approval of the com
mittee, or possibly of the Senate.
It is the idea of the main body of
the committee that the bill should be
amended so as to give the official in
question a speedy trial and hearing
before the Circuit Court. Senator Car
son calls attention to the ruling of
Judge McGinn in the Cameron case, in
which the court held that no public
elective official could be driven from
his office without a day In court, and
that this statute should be framed to
comply with that sentiment
Senator Thompson is in favor of
making the malfeasance statute more
effective. The majority of the com
mittee assume the position that, should
an official be supplanted and it is dis
covered that he had been derelict in his
duty or dishonest in his methods, he
should be routed out of his office en
tirely rather than be supplanted for a
period of 90 days.
BUTLER WAITS INQUIRY
SHEXiLiROCK ROAD DIFFICULTY
MAY BE rWESTIGlTED.
Resolution Will Ask to Determine
by What Right Railway Pre
vents Highway Building.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 1.
(Special.) To solve if possible the
difficulties which have arisen over the
construction of the Shellrock road
along the Columbia B-lver, In Hood
River County, Senator Butler, of Hood
River and Wasco, will Introduce a res
olution the first thing next Monday
calling upon the Governor or some
other authoritative person or body to
Investigate and determine by what
right the Oregon-Washington Railroad
& Navigation Company can keep the
county from constructing a county
road.
The difficulty arose last year between
the company and the county and Gov
ernor .West also was involved in the
difficulty from the interest he had
taken In the construction of the road
and from the fact that the state had
a large band of convicts working there.
The railroad company enjoined the
county from doing further work, un
der the claim that it would interfere
with the operation of-thelr trains. The
county desired the rallroafl, company,
as did the Governor, to move over a
portion of Its tracks to allow the road
to go around a certain point, but the
company refused.
Governor West called off his convicts
and the road work was held up.
Senator Butler declares that h
wishes to see a searching investigation
made Into the question.
Spencer's and Hotelmen's State-Aid
Measures Differ In Themselves
and Are Vldel Apart From
County Bonding Plan.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or., Feb. 1,
(Special.) With the btllB already in
troduced in the Legislature some fairly
adequate idea of the conflicting road
interests which are at work here may
be gathered as well as the possibility
of the difficulties which the legisla
tive assembly probably will encounter
before the final road scheme which will
be sanctioned is adopted.
One of the latest of the highway bills
introduced is by Spencer in the House,
who has a state-aid bill carrying an
approprlation of J310.000. This bill has
for its purpose the aiding of any singie
county In the state, or that Is tne re
spective counties in the state which
care to take advantage of the provls
ions of the bill. Under certain condi
tlons state-aid is given by the bill to
the respective counties. If any county
fails to take advantage of the provis
ions of the act, the money will be di
vlded among the other counties that
do take advantage of such provisions.
The bill sets out the various classes
of roads which will be aided should it
become an act, naming different
amounts which will be given per mile
to aid in the construction of such roads.
Hotelmen Have Measure.
Another bill which was introduced In
the Senate by Von der Hellen at tn.
soclation provides for the construction
of public highways, but differs from
the Spencer bill inasmuch as it provides
IOr tne COnSirUCUUJl Ul BUUU uinnaja
in any two or more counties that are
contiguous. This is a definite state
highway plan, while the Spencer bill
Is a plan for giving state-aid in the
construction of county roads.
There Is also a number of bills mak
ing provisions for the creation of a
state highway fund through the use of
money derived irom me licenses uom
AM of these measures, except the
last named class, perhaps, will come
in direct conflict with the ideas of

SIDELIGHTS ON OREGON LEGISLATURE
RULE 66 of the House, prohibiting
smoking during sessions of that
august body, recently came near being
abrogated, but Speaker McArthur took
advantage of the loud-lunged members
who voted not to suspend it and ruled
that the "noes have it."
In the early sessions of the House
nmnklntr wan indulged in at times, but
a black, ancient corncob pipe, owned
and controlled by Lair uregory, a
Portland newspaper man, was used as
perhaps the strongest argument
against suspension of the rule. Mem
bers who wished to smoke Detnougnt
themselves of this antique thing and
rf)i&A to votn In favor of anv Brook
ing. However, Gregory refuses to dis
pense witn nis pipe.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb.
1. (Special.) Ireland on Satur
day triumphed In the House by an over
whelming majority, and incidentally,
Michael J. Humane, one of the dis
tinguished members of Multnomah
County's delegation, was thoroughly
covered with glory.
Representative Mumane s resolution,
calling for official glorification to "Old
Ireland" over the victory relative to
attaining home rule, was adopted, amid
great enthusiasm, and John Redmond.
In due time, will know of the fact. A
communication will be sent to him to
acquaint him of the fact that Oregon
is glad of the event.
"Pat" Olson, one of the representa
tives from Multnomah County, rose and
said he felt it fitting that he. an Irish
Swede, should second a motion by "Pat"
McArthur, another Irishman, who gain
ed his name over night.
"Pat" McArthur, Speaker of the
House, was on the floor at the time,
and took occasion. Jocularly, to "re
sent" "Pat" Olson's Insinuations "that
I ever took a whirlat chance." It is
said that at one time in the dim past,
Mr. McArthur "sat in" at a "little
game," and by "standing 'pat' " won
his celebrated sobriquet. He himself
denied being Irish.
When Representative Noita, of Mult
nomah, was called upon to vote, he
asked Representative Olson if Olson is
an Irishman.
"I am." said Mr. Olson, amid laughter.
"Then, if you're Irish, I vote no,"
said Mr. Nolta, but there were many
votes to spare, so it was ail right.
DAN KELLAHER, a member of the
Multnomah delegation in the Sen
ate, does not, apparently, take his Job
very seriously. When speaking before
the House committee on corporations
last week he smilingly said: "We have
too much law now and the only time
that our constituents feel real happy
about us is when we adjourn and re
turn to our homes. I have very few
bills myself this session. I really think
the time is fast approaching when all
laws will come direct from the people
and this honorable House and Senate
will be things of the past."
.
JAY H- UPTON is one of the most
useful members of the House. He
Is a Representative from Multnomah
County. He is perhaps the best-liked
man in that branch of the Legislative
Assembly of Oregon. His ability is
thoroughly recognized by all who have
attended regularly the sessions, and his
popularity is growing fast
Mr. Upton Is the member who al
ways, at the right time, moves that
the House "do now adjourn."
(( m RE you leaving town?" asked
r newspaper man of Representa
tive Westerlund at the week-end ad
journment of the House.
"No, just going up to Pendleton," he
replied.
Meaning what?
WHILE Representative SchuebeL of
Clackamas County, is not classed
with the obstructionists, he may be
come known as one before the House
adjourns sine die.
The distinguished Representative has
introduced a bill which aims a body
blow at one of the greatest Industries
of Salem legislative sessions to abol
ish the lobby, or "third house."
Bin Would Penalize Failure to En
force Liquor Laws.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 1.
(Special.) Town Marshals, chiefs of
police. Sheriffs and others having tne
enforcement of laws in their hands
will be subject to arrest, prosecution
and a fine of from $50 to $500 if they
refuse or neglect to do their sworn duty
in regard to the sale of liquor if a bill
Introduced in the House this afternoon
by Representative Howard becomes law
Mr. Howard believes that these of
ficials should be punished if they fail
to uphold the liquor laws, which they
are sworn to enforce, and provides this
way of doing it.
Free Employment Agencies Aim.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb. 1.
(Special.) A system of free employ
ment agencies may be established
throughout the state, under the super
vision of the State Labor Commissioner,
if a bill introduced by Murnane, of
Multnomah County, becomes a law. The
Murnane bill proposes to appropriate
a fund of not more than $20,000 for the
establishment of these agencies, which
he would have operated on a plan sim

Bureau in Portland. No fees are to be
charged to applicants.

In a special car, which was set off
here when No. 6 passed through Pen

arrived in Pendleton today to pass the
major portion of the day inspecting the
Eastern Oregon State Hospital.
The delegation was met by officers
and members of the Commercial Club,
who entertained them at breakfast,
after which they were taken in auto
mobiles to the State Hospital, where
Superintendent McNary and his staff
and Captain C. A. Murphy received the
visitors.
The entire forenoon was given over
to conducting the legislators through
the institution and pointing out Its
further needs. As guests of Superin
tendent McNary the party had lunch
eon, in the dining-room of the new
hospital.
Much interest was manifested by the
committee from Salem in the splendid
architecture and up-to-date methods in
vogue at the institution. The mam
moth bake ovens attracted no little
attention. The two ovens will bake
1000 loaves of bread at a time, and
will make five bakings at one heat.
Without an exception the visiting
members of the Legislature expressed
themselves as favorably impressed with
the Institution, and believe in Its rapid
future growth.

quel to Three Days' Treatment
at the Neal Institute.
"Mi business was coins to ruin,"
he says. "I was losing account after
account. Customers who had been
long-time . standbys stopped coming
Into the store because I had reached
that stage In the excessive drinker's
flight where I was always more or
less under the Influence of liquor.
Continuing the recital of experiences
during the period which 1b now only
memory's nightmare, he said: "In those
old days my wife and children never
knew when or in what condition I'd
reach home. I wasn't very far from
the Jumping off place when I saw my
self as I really was a business man
who was . trading my business, my
family's happiness and my own health
for the stuff that would land me on
my back dead broke, friendless, blear
eyed and whisky-soaked.
I'd heard afrout the wonderful Neal
Drink Cures at the Neal Institute, and I
decided to take the Treatment. I was
treated like a guest, and left there with
all desire for liquor gone. I'm a free
man once more. My business Is double
what it was three months ago. The
money I used to spend for booze now
goes to greater comforts for the wife
and children. Feel like drinking again?
Say, I'd just as leave tackle soft soap
as any alcoholic' stuff. I'm through for
good."
