CONSOLIDATION
I 111
Otliers Are Expected to Be Intro
duced This "Week and Ways and
Means Committee Also Likely
to Demand Changes.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or.. Jan. 13.
(Special.) Every Indication points
to the fact that the Legislature means
business on the question of consolida
tion of commissions and the elimina
tion of duplicating features of the work
of such boards.
Although the joint ways and means
committee has been making1 rather
rapid progress with the budget, con
sidering the fact that but two sessions
of that committee has been held, it has
been apparent that the members have
avoided taking any action whatever as
to the appropriations for such boards
and commissions as may come In for
eomo change In status before the pres
ent session closes.
A number of bills Introduced already
are planned to effect changes in the
present administration of some
branches of the state affairs, but it
Is expected a number of others will
come In during the next week. Hints
have been made of such proposed
measures by various members, but so
far the detailed nature of them has
not been divulged.
Consolidation Is Awaited.
The Joint ways and means commit
tee Is working with the understanding
that it is to have all of Its bills be
fore the members within 30 days after
the beginning of the session, but the
consolidation bills may have soma ef
fect on that ruling.
It is obvious that the ways and
means members will be powerless to
determine on their general appropria
tion bills with any finality until some
sort of a last decision Is made on the
consolidation measures.
It also is evident that that commit
tee Is satisfied there will- be a num
ber of consolidations and changes, and
Is working accordingly, having its
programme mapped out largely alpng
those lines In disposing of the matters
which come before it In dissecting the
budget.
Programme Held Vital.
Consequently In making up the gen
eral appropriation bills that commit
tee will- wish to know Just exactly
what it will be called on to provide
for each board and commission. This
cannot be done until the committee
knows how each board and commission
Is to be constituted. Until such bills
are In no definite action can be taken,
and unless such bills are well disposed
of before 30 days of the session has
elapsed the Joint ways and means com
mittee will pay no attention to the
30-day rule and will continue with Its
labors until it is able to show to the
whole Legislature a definite pro
gramme to be followed out.
Such a programme is considered by
the members as being vital in taking
Bteps to carry out the provisions of
the limitation amendment.
So, on the face of the situation, it
appears that the two houses must do
some speeding up on their consolida
tion bills if they desire the ways and
means committee to do any similar
speeding up on appropriation bills.
Committee May Mark Time.
It will be necessary for the ways and
means committee to handle only such
institutions and offices as the mem
bers are confident will remain in ex
istence and unchanged. After these
are disposed of, if the consolidation
bills are not ready for committee con
sideration in their final form, the com
mittee merely will be compelled to
mark time until such bills come in, or
attempt to go ahead without them.
But there seems to be no danger that
the committee will attempt to do this,
as there seems to be a pretty well
defined undercurrent among the ma
loritv of the Joint committee's mem
bership at least that a number of
boards and commissions can be changed
without being harmful to the efficiency
of administration, and at the same time
bring about a proportionate reduction
in expense.
It is considered safe to say that the
committee itself will demand some
consolidations and will recommend no
appropriation bills which contemplate
appropriations for all of the boards
and commissions as they now stand.
Sidelights of Legislature.
STATE CAPITOL. Salem, Or.. Jan.
13. (Special.) Senator "Wood, of
"Washington, chairman of the Sen
ate ways and means committee, has a
bright son, who is one of the Senate
pages.
The nig'b.t sessions of committees
will begin soon. In fact, some are
slated for the coming week. There
will be hearings by the ways and
means committee and by the alcoholic
traffic committees of both houses to
frame a suitable bone-dry prohibition
measure.
Many of the members of both houses
went to Portland for tha week-end.
The Multnomah delegation of seven in
the Senate and 13 in the House, except
Lewis, went in a body, and with them
went Speaker Stanfleld, Representa
tives Ritner, Burdick. Thomas, Ander
son and others, and Senators Baldwin
and Hurley.
There will be one less orator in the
Senate this week. Senator Conrad P.
Olson went to Portland for the week
end and now comes word that he has
caught such a cold that he can hardly
speak above a whisper. He expects to
return Monday, but won't do much
talking for a while.
It i probable that the new insurance
oode will be Introduced early next
week. The committee of thai two houses
have been holding Joint sessions for
the last few days and have carefully
gone over the entire code. A hearing
will be held on Tuesday morning at 11
o'clock for mutual Insurers and at the
same hour on Thursday 'for fraternals.
The House proposes to make all bills
hereafter introduced conform to the
rule adopted at the last session that
all new matter shall be printed in
italics and matter that is to be stricken
out printed in brackets. A resolution
by the committee on resolutions in
structing the chief clerk to return all
bills not bo drawn to the authors was
adopted unanimously a few days ago.
A meeting of the Joint committee on
military affairs is not entirely unlike
a gathering at an officers' club. There
are Colonel Willett, Captain Orton,
Captain- Wilbur and Captain Stafrin.

Representative Thomas made a fly

after the session adjourned', transacted
a lot of private business and was back
In Salem at 8:30 this morning. He will
remain here over Sunday. Thomas lives
in Medford.
FUNERAL TO BE MONDAY
BODY OF J. M. NOLAN WILL BE
BURIED AT COHVA I.IJS.
Well-Known Merchant Waa Native of
County KUdare, Ireland, and Res.

CORVALLIS, Or., Jan. IS. (Special.)
The body of J. M. Nolan arrived in
Corvallis today from Rochester, Minn.,
where he died Tuesday of pneumonia.
Mrs. and Mrs. Nolan went to Minnesota
about the middle of December and De

for abdominal trouble. He withstood
the operation until the eighth or ninth
day, and then contracted pneumonia.
Mr. Nolan had been in business here
for 32 years. He was born in County
Kildare, Ireland, December 18, 1842.
When a young man he served his ap
prenticeship with a large mercantile
establishment in Dublin.
While employed at the Dublin estab
lishment Mr. Nolan read a book writ
ten by Father Farral, "Three Years at
the Golden Gate." Mr, Nolan was thus
influenced to come to America. He ar
rived at San Francisco October 1, 1872,
and obtained a position as salesman for
O'Conner's silk house.
After passing 10 years in California,
Mr. Nolan came to Oregon and opened
a business at Albany. Mr. Nolan lo
cated In Corvallis In April, 1884.
He is survived by his widow and two
sons, Tom and Victor Nolan, of Cor
valis, and two daughters, Mrs. James
McCaustland, Spokane, and Miss Ger
trude Nolan, of Corvallis.
The funeral will be held Monday at
St. Mary's Cathollo Church, this city,
and burial will be In the Catholio Cem
etery here. When Mr. Nolan went East
to consult the specialists he feared he
would not return and he made the re
quest that in case of his death no flow
ers be sent to his funeral, but that
the money the flowers would have cost
be given to charity.
OREGON PRODUCT TAKES
RICE WITH MILK PUT OUT IS CANS
BY AMITY CONCERN.
Output la 10,000 to 15,000 Cases
Monthly and Big; Ordera Are
Received From Allies.
Canned rice in milk, ready to eat,
promises to become a big feature in the
food producing industry of Oregon, and
the only factory of this kind, at Amity,
Or, has already more ordera than it can
fill in 30 days.
The patents on the food are held by
W. H. Stevens, of the T. W. Stevens Ex.
porting & Importing Company of
Portland, and S. C. Dunlap, president of
the Holly Milk Canning Company, of
Amity. The patents for the United
States and Canada were taken out in
October, and already orders for many
thousands of cases have been made by
one of the governments of the entente
allies.
Mr. Dunlap has devoted between
three and four years to the study and
experiment which led up to the patent
ing of the new canned food. The plant
at Amity can produce from 10.000 to
15,000 cases a month, and the orders
already received are far in excess of
those figures.
The goods have not been put upon
the local markets, and if the demand
from abroad continues, may not be put
on for some time. Other plants will
be developed probably to increase the
output, and it is believed that the millt
and rice canning industry will become
one of the leading food industries in
the Northwest.
