When the legislators shall reas
semble at Salem Monday they will
find the bills which they introduced
last week, all printed and ready for
lawmaking. The number of bills in
troduced in the Senate last wee'v was
66 and in the House 91 Three bills
passed both houses one to extend
the time for filing tax levies with the
County Clerk this year from January
1 to February 1 : one to amend the
charter of Hillsboro. and the third"
authorize Clatsop county to collect a
special tax levy of 5 mills for a new
courthouse.
As yet only half a dozen of what
are deemed really important subject
of legislation have been touched by
the bills introduced.
Intrust lilB iBtrtaacce
The most important bills thus far
introduced are as follows:
Representative Cole For revised
irrigation code.
Rep vsentative Miles To protect
forests from fire.
Representative Steiner To cede
lake lands in Klamath county to the
1'nitod Suites.
Representative Settlemier To re
vise militia code so as to conform to
Dick law.
Representative Mayger To give
each county a Prosecuting Attorney.
Representative Kay To pay state
officers flat salaries.
Representative Capron To create
State Tax Commission.
Representative Hudson To raise
marriage license from to $6.
Senator Booth To create office of
Stat? Examine:.
Senator Smith To create County
Boards of Health.
Senator Whealdon To create
State Mineral Bureau.
Senator Coe To raise age of con
sent from 16 to IS years.
Senator Brownell - To call Consti
tutional Convention.
Senator Whealdon To appropri
ate money for Indian War veterans
of 1855.
Senator Sichel To provide wh ip-
ping post for wifebeaters.
Govcraer Will Vets Oat Bill.
One of the three bills passed last
week that authorizing extension of
time for filing tax levies will be ve
toed by the Governor with the ap
proval of the legislature. The relief
sought by the bill is in Grant and
Clatsop counties, where the law re
quiring levies to be certified to the
County Clerk by January 1 was not
complied with by certain school dis
tricts or municipalities. ' If the bill
should become a law, collection in
other counties would be delayed un
til past the rebate period, and the
tax collection system would be put
out of joint. Next week the Legis
lature will enact a new bill to apply
only to Grant and Clatsop counties.
years old when the wedding news was
made pub ic, there was considerable cu
riosity to see Mrs. Clark when the land
ed from the steamer. In the hope of
discouraging cariosity seekers, Mrs.
Clark remained on the steamer for over
and hour after the vessel tierthed. She
underestimate the lasting .(ualities of
those, who, while waiting, discussed the
question as to how society would receive
her.
The senator and his wife will go to
Washington, where a mansion
opened. After the session of congress
the couple wilLagain go abroad.
The romanre of Senator Clark and
Miss Anna La Chapeile first became
known last year, when Senator Clark
be prepared for a great surprise before
he returned. He then gave out the
news of his having been married three
years before.
The senator first met Anna La Cha
peile 12 years ago, when she was scarce
ly 17 years of age. Her father went to
Butte from Montreal to improve his
health and fortune and died there, tear
ing his family penniless. On his death
bed he confided his children to the care
of the millionaire magnate.
Anna's musical talents were consider
able and she was sent first to the con
servatory in Boston and then abroad.
She grew into a radiantly beautiful wo
man of tbe French-Canadian type, pe
tite and graceful , with lustrous dark
eyes and a wealth of chestnut hair.
While studying in Paris she was mar
ried to her benefactor.
Tbe small daughter born to them first
saw the light of day in Senator Clark's
villa on the bay of Algiers, where the
honeymoon was spent. It is said that
will be iuj ci iiu.uuu Deiore see was a
week old. So great was the secrecy and
so magnificent tbe preparations for this
event that Algiers people are firmly con
vinced that Mrs. Clark is a morganatic
wife of a great king. A second child
was horn to Senator and Mrs. Clark last
sailed for Europe telling some friends to j year, bat it lived berelv an hoar.

It is true his father may hare taken a
