THINKS BILL
"I do not bellovo tliat Qov. West
will veto tho Uoguo Itlvor bill which
will permit commercial Hailing at tho
mouth of tho stream," said John D.
does who returned from Portland to
day. "I notlcu thnt soino of tho
press dispatches claim thnt ho will
but from n poraonnl conversation
with htm, I think tho dispatches nro
wrong. Tho bill Instead of ropcnllng
the law ennctod by tho people mere
ly supplements It. Tho lnltlntlvo
law, nccordlng to tho arguments In
Its behalf Is for tho protection moro
ly of steel hoad Balmon from tho
commercial fishermen for tho benoflt
of the rod and lino flshormon. Tho
I'elrco hill protects tho steol head
salmon but permits tho taking of
other salmon for canning. Conse
quently, Governor Wost would not
liavo to veto tho Polrco bill In order
to uphold tho lnltlntlvo measure."

VERTISE.

cording to Eastern Minister.
CHICAGO, HI., Fob. 13. "Every
church should havo a regular adver
tising manager," said tho Rev. Char
les Stenzlo, of Now York, superin
tendent of tho Presbytorinn "Church
nnd Labor," In nn address boforo tho
ministers nnd laymen nt tho McCor-
mlek Theological Somlnary. "Tho
newspaper Is by far tlio best adver
tising medium for tho church," con
tinued Dr. Stenzle.
"Business men do not expect Im
mediate results from their first ad
vertising. They keep on advertising
until they have caught tho nttentlon
of the public, and then thoy adver
tise to keep tho atteutlon.
"Churches must go after now bus
iness. Tho people of tho city are
not going to church, and so the
church must go to thorn. Tho down
town churches nro losing their hold
on the people. Tho old memberB are
'lying or moving nwny. New mem
bers can be secured by Judicious ad
vertising. Tho church must set
aside an appropriation for an adver
ting campaign, and this fund must
be used for no other purpose.

RIVER BILL
SALKM, Ore, Fob. 1-1. "I Bny
now that during my term of office
I will zcnlously guard the Integrity
of these laws of the people and will
combnt with every means In my
power any attempt to Injure, In
frlngo or Biilivort them. Tho people
of Oregon, nt different times and In
no uncertain tones, havo declared
for thcBo laws, nnd no men or hostile
Influcnco should be permitted to at
tempt, In any mnnncr, to wrest from
tho pooplo their hnrd-enrncd vic
tory." This Is an extract from Gov
ernor West's messago to tho legisla
ture. Asked what ho would do In caso
tho IIoubo hill, throwing Rogue river
open for operations by tho Hume
cunning Interests In defiance of the
lnltlntlvo law passed by the people,
should also pass tho Senate nnd be
put up to him Govornor West turn
ed to pngo 3S of his messago and
laid his forefinger upon tho pnrn
grnph given In tho foregoing.
Thnt wns his answer. He would
say nothing further, but that answer
spells defeat for tho men who, on
tlio representation that tho people
blundered, thnt, as Seneca Fonts
said, they nindo "a slight mistake,"
exhibited tho tomorlty and effrontery
to try to overthrow the people's will
as expressed by n majority of 1G,
000 votes.
Favors Whipping Pot.
Denouncing tho wlfe-bentor as at
heart a bnrharlan and ns such de
serving of tho only kind of treat
ment which will appeal to a person
of brutish Impulses, Govornor West
sent to tho IIouso his veto of II. B.
101, by Huchanan, abolishing tho
whipping post.
Innsmuch as thero nro a few bar
barlaiiB left In Oregon, according to
statistics of crlmo In his possession,
roads tho veto In offect, tho governor
snyB ho bollevcs that tho "rollo of
barbarism known as tho whipping
post," Bhould romnln on tho statute
books until t'ho last molo person ex
hibiting tho horedltary Instincts of
tho cave-man shall havo been elimi
nated from tho state.
Tho whipping post law was enact
ed by tho legislature In 1905. In
effectual attempts to abolish It were
rondo by Representative Huchanan
In 1907 and in 1909. Ho renowed
his offorts early this session nnd his
bill passed tho IIouso nnd tho Sen
ato and went to tho governor Feb
ruary S.
"Thoso opposed to tho whipping
post law argue that It Is a survival
of tho statutes In forco In tho days
whon pcoplo wero not so civilized
nor so enlightened ns they aro now,"
said Governor West, In commenting
on his voto message, "but I havo
noticed ono thins fine or imprison
n man for beating his wife and ho
will come back for another sentence;
but apply the lash to his back with
both tho physical torturo nnd mental
anguish and chagrin such a penalty
carries with It, and he never comes
back."

A decision in the case of tho Ben
nett Trust company nnd Southern
Oregon company vs. tho Port of Coos
Day will probably bo secured in a
week or two weoks. Tho caso was
nrguod beforo tho body last week.
C. R. Peck, who appeared beforo
tho supremo court In behalf of tho
Port of Coos Day, returned today.
Ho expects tho decision will bo
handed down either next Tuesday
or a week from Tuesday.
Apparently, from tho laBt presen
tation of tho enso to tho supremo
court, tho matter now hinges on
whether or not every notlco of elec
tion Bent out to tho clerks and Jud
ges In tho various prcdnctR must be
posted In order to mako It wild. J.
W. Donnott contended thnt tho fnll
uro to post notlco would Invnlldnto
tho olcctlon whllo Mr. Peck contend
ed a substantial posting of tho
i notices was all tho legislature ln
' tended. In tho port of Coos Bay
'case, It was proven thnt all but 40
of tho 180 notices sent out wero
posted properly nnd that at least
eight notices sent out wero poRtcd
in oach precinct. Mr. Peck explain
ed why somo of tho forty-six no
tices woro not posted by citing In
ntanccs of whoro Bomo of tho elec
tion officials thoy wero sent to liml
died, whoro Bomo had moved nwny
and whoro othor woro physically un
nblo to poBt thorn.
In enso tho supromo court should
decldo tho caso advorsoly to tho port
commission, It will bo necessary to
havo to take all tho stops Involving
tho organization of tho Port of Coos
Day ovor ugaln.
Incidentally, such a, ruling would
probably moan that tho othor ports
organized In Orogon would bo hold
Invalid for tho sumo reason.
