But in addition to all the txnenditures
already authorised. JMJnclAded in the
ways and means committee s appropria
tion bills, there are several measures
pending or proposedwhlch may make
rurtner arains upon tne. state treasurr.
Chief among these is -the bill appropriat
ing $10,009 for the extension of the port
age road. ' This bill seems destined to
defeat. . for .-the:
which It-was referred has agreed to re
port it ad veraely Nevertheless an effort
will be-made to save IX and It has still
.-fighting chance of passage. Money
is' aiaan wanted lor the - state census
which it is -estimated wlll-ooat .about
$7,600. The executive mansion bill call.
Ing for $14,600 may possibly be revived.
A modest request for $609 for rood roads
haa been mads and. the legislature haa
also been aaked to appropriate $15,000
for a home for idiot children and $20.
009 for a home for wayward girls. The
Irrigation bill now pending would call
for'an expenditure of probably $20,900.
Btelner'B bill appropriating $14,000, to
be expehded by the governor forthe
suppression- of sheep killing has passed
the house end Is before the senate.
It Is safe to say that larse aa the
appropriations are at this session they
wUl net suffice In all -cases to meet re
quirements for the next two years. The
state printing office Will almost certain.
ly exceed the allowance of 10.000 which
a to- be made by this legislature, and it
a Intimated that several of the stat
institutions may find it difficult to keep
wiinm-tne umiTs or tne sums allotted
to them. ' .. v . . .
Charitable and benevolent inatlt utlAnii
have fared badly this year at the hands
of the waya and meana committee. The
bill reported today contains no provision
whatever for the Boys and Olrls' Aid
society, to which the 'state gave $1,000
two years ago: the Crittenton hnma i
also omitted, although., allowed .000
oy me last legislature; and the Patton
home, which received $2,009 In 190$. gets

BIG BUILDING BOOM
, PREVAILS AT EUGENE
'(Special Dtspeteh te Tka Jour nil. 1
Eugene, Feb. 10.--One of the blest
Dunamg booms mat ever struck the edu-
-cational city of Eugene la now on at
this place. At the present time there
are four brick blocks going up1 on the
business streets and all are excellent In
construction. One of these Is to be used
by Fred T, Merrill, of Portland, aa a
vaudertrra theatre. The largest build
trig beings ererted occupies a quarter
block, and- will be used as a furniture
store by H. Gordon. Besides the brick
blocks, there are three wooden - build
ings being erected which will also be
occupied by business enterprises, and
quite a number of new residences. -
It Is estimated that nearly 109 houses
will be erected before the fall season
begins, and thla alone Is eonaldered
quite a boom In Itself. The people here
are taking a great Interest In the, com
ing fair, and already many Improvements
are being made In yarda and In ' the
tearing down of disgusting sights, such
as old fences and signs. A movement Is
being agitated whereby the women of
the city can meet occasionally and dis

- 8alemOr.t Feb. 19. Multnomah's
delegation held a heated caucus" yester
day arterijoon over Col well's bill amend
ing in Portland charter so aa to au'
thorlse the city to levy an additional I
mill tax to py for bridges over gulches
and ravines, in cases where the cost of
the bridge exceeds $16,000. The bUTl
cad passed the house, but-In the senate
its progress was blocked by a demand
that It be re-referred to-the Multnomah
delegation for further consideration.
. The feature which excited especial
opposition was .the provision that from
this special tax of $ mills the city shall
pay the coat of bridges constructed dur
ing 1(04, or now under contract or in
course of construction. . Members of the
delegation who were In 'favor -of levy'
ing a special tax to pay for bridges con'
structed In the future were not willing
to saddle upon the taxpayers' the coat of
bridges 'already commenced or - com
pleted. '-- !,.'..
It is provided In the bill that' the pro
posed amendments to the charter ahall
be submitted to the people of Portland
for approval In the election next June:
Senator Malarkey led the opposition In
the caucus to the bill. "He declared him
self a strong believer In the principle
that bridge should be paid for by the
whole city," but he objected to "compell
irtg the people Of the whole City to pay
for- bridges against whoee const ruction
they had no opportunity to protest. He
was willing to submit to the people the
two questions first,, whether they shall
pay fOE bridges, already built or In
cotrrse of .. construction; and. - second,
whether bridges - built1 hereafter - shall
be paid for by the whole' city. But he
strongly objected to coupling the two
propositions so that thejrmist-f stand
or fair together.-" " 1 , 1 '. ' r-,,,
t At a. caucus held earlier In the -ses-
fsfon the delegatioh agreed that the two
propositions .should br-seved-so that
they could be voted upon separately by
the people. This agreement was Ig
nored afterward when Colwell's bllla
was Introduced. .." The discussion was
heated, but Colwell. finally . carried his
point, a . majority of the delegation
agreeing to sustain the bill tn its pres
ent form, and Malarkey waa compelled
te) give. way. .... . .
It la believed by some r tne aeiega-
tlon that t' serious mistake has -been
made In Unking the two. propositions
