"A large percentage of the duutUim performed today In Portland ar not tnirrligf i at all. They are almply. put up Joba." Huch la a statement tnade by county Clerk Field today. In discus tng remedial 'legislation, which tie will , ursa at tUa present aeaalon of the leg istature. , "Today anybody can perform ' mar riage ceremony." oontlnued Mr. Fields. "A certificate may come In here slened by John Jones, and I hare to accept it. I have no doubt that there are .many cases where a girl Imagines that aha la .married, when. In reality, she la not married at all. There are not onlyout ' up Jobs, but there are people "who think they' are teing-married wherr -they-are almply purchasing a license.

During -the paat four and one-half years, since Fields first took office, he has Issued : 7,100 marriage licenses. Though - not required to do so by law, be has kept a V careful record of the addresses of the : bridegrooms, and In case of failure to return the certificate, haa sent a letter notifying the delinquent of the violation of the law. In-spite of these precau- tlona. there are 7t certificates missing, Previous to Fields assuming- the du ties nf-th office, nine years and one - monllj elapsed before .- 7,100 licenses were Jsaued. Of this number 259 went , unrecorded. - "Even .if the ceremonies wer per formed," aald Mr. Fields, "the parties . cannot prove their marriage. They have no standing under - the law aa wedded persona. If the husband ahould ; go tc. war and be killed his wife would be unable to collect the pension." Mr. Fields bill- would " amend Sec tions S21. 1214 and StJT of Bellinger and Cotton's code. The amendments would require the person officiating at a marriage to file with the county clnrk satisfactory evidence of bis au - thorlty. and would require -the county 'clnrk to keep a record of the groom's : address and to notify -him should the minister fall - to record the certificate. -; It would alao render more practical the application of the law Imposing a fine Upon delinquent ministers.

This spe cial committee, composed of six of the largest shippers, waa as follows: L, A. Lewis, T. D. Honeyman, 8. M. Mears, Henry Hahn, Edward Newbegln, A. H. Devers. With the. assistance of the committee' ' attorney, . J. N. Teal, ; the bill . was completed after months of Investigation and conference . with city and country shippers and Industrial concerns. T. ' ' t "This question 1 In no sense one of partisan, politics, , nor of giving any political advantage to this or that gov ernor! It Is a question of doing some thing for the stste and for relief of the shippers," said Edward Newbegln. "It cuts no figure that the appointment of the first commission may be made by a governor who la a Democrat. The next governor may be a . Republican, and be would have the same power of removal and . appointment.' But he would be held personally responsible to the people for acta In that regard, the sams as would a Democratic gover nor.

The recent effort of home missionaries and "circuit riders" to establish a church In this section brings out the startling faot that Curry Is ths only "bounty in the state of Oregon, so far a can be learned, that haa absolutely no place of worship. Aside from the Informal gatherings and meetings held by the traveling preach ers, no religious services of any sort are held in thla county. The condition la not ascribed ao much to the indifference of cltlsens on mat tars religious, aa to the fact that minis ters of ths gospel are few and far be tween in Curry-county.. They seem to give this corner, of the state a wide berth. . -. '. . A few years ago minister did try to establish a Sunday school In a set tlement of Curry county. Unfortunately he chose a region where the people did not sppear to have any particular de sire for a Sunday school. The crowd that sssembled at the call of the min ister thought It was a picnic, and the preacher," who waa obliged to give up in disgust, declared that It 'was a "plc- nlo to attempt to establish a Bunday-4 school In the Curry county mountains. - New people have come Into Curry county this past year, and sew ones ars continually coming In from the thickly settled east people who are aceustomim to attending church every Sunday, and who are taking an Interest In thing re ligious out here. , They, aa well as sev eral of the older cltlsens, art trying to secure the aid of "home missionaries," and the assistance of "home missionary runds," believing that missionary money could be no better spent than In es tablishing a church of some sort In Curry county. . INSURANCE RATES . . v " - ... (Continued from Fag One.) - Alfred Stlllman of San Francisco, sec retary or the executive board of the Un derwriters, is in Pbrtland looking after matters in connection with a general in vestigation and report of Ore hasard conditions In Portland and Oregon. He said) .- - "The committee on rate revision will meet at San Francisco about February 1. ;-A new schedule will be arranged. Personally I am anxious to see the old rates restored in Portland. -1 am quite certain that the new schedule that 1 now being prepared will be satisfactory th all Interests." ,."'' Old Bate to Frerall.',. .' . Mr. Stlllman expressed the opinion that old rates would be again, put Into effect in Oregon. The 25 per cent In crease of ratea.made some months sgo by the underwriters was, he said, nec essary at that time, but It was not de sired by. the Insurance companies, as It naturally hurt ths business . of . their agents, and is stlU affecting business. The increase of rates in Oregon waa ordered Into effect October 11, 190. It covered district D, which- comprises all of the stat -of Oregon and a part of Idaho. . The order advanced the rate 2S The order dvnnee h rat fx per cent on mercantile property, Includ ing buildings and stocks of merchan dise. It hit also boarding houses, apart ment bouses, hotels and a large class -of property that is ranked In th has- srdous list. .There' were a number of Important exceptions of property not effected by me advance. .No increase ol rates, it la alleged, was made on farnu property, on stores or industries protected by au " torn U1IO sprinkle! s pproved by the I'lnu1 pany, on lumber. mills and outbuildings, excepting lumber yards and warehouaes stored with lumber, or on residence property, churches, schools or public buildings. These claaaea of property were aald- to be exempt. Bew Schedules ta Zffaot. Ous Rosenblatt, of the Rosenblatt agendy, aald: "The new schedules are already being started into errect. - There have been some reductions made for properties where coruKt Ions have been brought up to th requirements of the new sched ules. The 'Insurance companies want better constructed buildings, they would like better - electric wiring. - and ' they want waste removed from insured premises. . . . i j - r- "The increase of H per cent In rate wa made last October pending a read justment of all the rates under a sched ule that will cover various new condi tions. The new schedule will consider all kinds of hazards, such as exposures, openings adjacent to frame buildings, thickness of walls, protected openings and skylights. . snd features of these risks thst have net heretofore been con sidered.

The result is a germicide so certain that we publish with every bottle an offer of $1,000 for a disease germ that Liquorone cannot kill. It destroys them because germs are of vegetable origin.
