THE SUNDAY OREGONTAX, PORTLAXD, JANUARY 21, 1917. 1 DEADLOCK LOOMS FOR POWER BILLS Senators Unable to Agree on House Measure and Same . Is True in Lower Body. BRIDE, "ALL IN BLACK," WEDS BRIDEGROOM ALSO ATTIRED IN SOMBER CLOTHES. FACTIONS ARE APPARENT followers of Gifford Pinchot Re fuse to Vote for Anything That . Docs 'Sot Have His Approval Others Take Other Stand. OftEGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. 20. Water-power legisla tion seems to have fallen a victim to the "we - will - and - we-won't policy" which President Wilson once asserted Is delaying: progress In the United States. The prospect for the final enactment of any sort of workable water-power bill before the 4th of March is regarded as remote, and it would not be surprising if Congress failed utterly to enact any sort of water-power bill. j.aie aiscussion in the Senate over the Myers bill shows exactly how the we-wm-ana-we won t policy is work ing out. The Myers bill is & substitute lor the Ferris bill, passed by the House last session. It is a more liberal bill than the Ferris bill, and its supporters contend that it will both encourage and invite development of water-power on the public domain. But the oppo nents of the bill are divided into two classes, those who, standing with Mr. Plnchot, contend that the bill goes too far, and those who take the opposite view, and maintain that the bill does not go far enough. And unless there can be some ground of compromise the bill is threatened with ultimate de feat, because its terms are not tho roughly understood, and because the ultra-conservationists and the ultra antis refuse to get together. Jinny Follow Plnchot. Those Senators who accept Gifford Pinchot as their guide regarding all conservation legislation have assumed a dog-in-the-manger attitude, and de clare that they will kill any water-power bill that does not have the sanction of Mr. Pinchot. They are unwilling to concede that there is any flaw in Mr. Pinchot's argument, and they are not at all impressed with the statement of big men that there will be no develop ment under a water-power law such as Mr. Pinchot advocates. Many Western Senators have been aroused by the attitude of the Pinchot ltes in the Senate, and say they would prefer no water-power legislation to a bill of the Pinchot type, which they maintain will accomplish nothing. They assert that the enactment of a law wiiich imposes conditions which capi tal can not and will not meet is a mere waste of time, and worse, because once such a law goes upon the statute books it will take years to demonstrate that it is unworkable, and In conse quence the enactment of a workable law will be postponed until there has been a change of public sentiment. Bill Regarded as Radical by Some. 1 The fact that, some big men promi nent in water-power development have asserted that they will proceed with new projects. If the Myers bill is en acted, will swing into line, back of that measure, some of the Senators who be lieve that even the Myers bill is too drastic, but this fact will not bring to the support of the bill the more radical advocates of a liberal law. Of course the Myers bill has the support f not a few Senators who believe in it, and who are disposed to regard it as a middle-of-the-road bill that at least deserves a trial. Passage of the Myers bill by the Senate, or passage of that bill in some emasculated form will not insure the final enactment of the bill, for it will go to a conference committee, where an attempt will be made to adjust the differences between the Ferris bill which the Senate will not accept and the Myers bill, which the House will not accept. Whether any compromise can be reached by a conference com mittee is extremely doubtful. The Shields bill, regulating power develop ment on navigable streams, went to a conference committee last session, an? In that committee the House stood out for the Adamson bill while the Senate Insisted on having the more liberal Shields bill. There the conference com mittee deadlocked, and its members re port that it is practically out of the question to expect any compromise, be cause neither body is ready to yield to the judgment of the other. r r 4- - 21 11' V' X Y, jK I " A All IP ; - I 1 ' hlh 'r t A " A - -'- '- H i ;?

It was not until the discovery by Sir Arthur Garrod, in 1848, that the blood of gouty patients contained uric acid in an excessively lary amount, that much attention was paid to this sub ject. Later scientific men learned that in gout (also true In rheumatism) the kidneys do not work properly to throw off the uric acid poison; consequently uric acid crystals are deposited in and about the joints, where an Inflamma tion is tset up in the nearby tissues. When for any reason the circulation is sluggish, as in the joints of the toes, crystals formed from uric acid are de posited there, and one suffers from gout; or, when deposited in the tissues, one suffers from muscular rheumatism or articular rheumatism. My only med icine to counteract the uric acid and to throw it out of the system ls tab lets of Anuric (double strength), three times a day. The pain In the back, lumbago, pain in the neck, creaky Joints, stifness In muscles, have all been proven to be caused by uric acid poison in the blood and tissues. The kidneys soon become diseased, then there often follows dls case in the muscles of the heart. Kidney disease carries away a large percentage of our people. What la to be done? What can the ordinary person do to properly balance bodily health? . The answer is easy. Eat less meat, eat coarse, plain food, with plenty of vege tables, drink plenty of water between meals and take an uric acid solvent before meals for a while, such aa Anuric (double strength), obtained at almost any drug store. It was first discovered by Dr. Pierce, of the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. T. Most everyone trou bled with uric acid finds that Anuric dissolves the uric acid as hot water will dissolve sugar.

Whether the Administration intends to delay sending Ambassador Fletcher to Mexico City until after the Amerl can troops come out has not been defi nitely indicated, but it has been pointed out that the stationing of an ambassa dor at the Carranza capital might be construed as sanctioning certain acts of the de facto government agains which this Government has persistently DRYTOWN PASTORS QUIT WHEATLASD, CAL, IS WITHOUT SPIRITUAL ADVISER.
