KlITIATED LAWS
Attorney-General l Holds" Gover
nor Has No Power Over
Laws by the People.
(Special DUpatrl te Tk. Joenal.) ,
Salem, Or, April II. The attorney
general yesterday gave an. opinion In
answer to a query made by District
Attorney John "MoCourt of Pendleton
i to whether the governor : had the
right to veto laws enacted by the- Ini
tiative method. He replied in the nega
tive, baaing his opinion on the ease of
. Kadderly vs. Portland.: 44 Oregon.- lis.
He says:
"I find on referring to said case. In
subdivision I or the opinion, page 144,
that judge Bean holds that the veto
power or the governor Is not abridged
in any way except as to such laws as
the legislature may refer to the peo
pla. .... .........
"Section If of article S of the eonr
etitutlon provides that every bill shall
have - passed the legislative assembly,
and before it becomes a law shall do
presented to the governor. I find no
other . section of the constitution' pro
viding that any bill whatever shall be
presented to the governor. It Is only
those which passed the legislative is
sembly. -,
Therefore laws enacted by the Ini
tiative method do not go to the cv
raor. and , he can never exercise his
Veto power on them. Judge Bean held
further to said case above mentioned
that the governor could exercise the
veto power upon all measures except
those which were referred by the leg
islature to the people: that la, upon all
measures passed by the legislative as
sembly, and those are ' the only ones
which go to the governor at all.' The
reason he cannot . exercise the veto
power upon those referred to the peo
ple is by virtue of the provision ofJ
section 1 of article 4 of the eonstltu-1
tlon as amended June S, HOf." , ;

Washington. D. C April , It. That
the nubile should be educated to a cor
rect understanding of those principles
of international law and practice which
the United States is oalled upon to ob
serve in Us relations with other na
tions is the belief of a number of prom
inent men who gathered la this city to
day to complete the organisation of a
society which will work to this end.
The promoters of the movement believe
that aa understanding of International
law is more essential to the people
of the United States than la other
countries because of the Influence pub
lic sentiment exercises upon the admin
istrative and diplomatic policy of this
government ' . ,
Preliminary plans for the organisation

national prominence on the list of vice
presidents, it is now purposed to er
fect a permanent organisation and to

This morning; Admiral Stockton, C
H. Hyde of Chicago and H. P. Wheler
of New Tork followed Secretary Root in
the discussion aa to whether immunity
from capture during a war and the
need of offending private property upon

in contraband of war being prohibited
was a subject treated by Judge Advo
cate General Davis and others. The
president will give a reception at the
White House tomorrow. v .

Phone Main 5 3d and Ankenjr.J
It has enly been very short time
since the Importation of a small amount
of out-of-aeason produce would com
pletely glut the Portland market on ac
count or the nign prices ins seiiers
would be forced to ask. Compare this
condition with that during the past few
weeks and it is wonderful how much
change la made. At thla time we are
getting tomatoes from Florida, cucum
bers from the same place, strawberries
from Cuba, Florida and California, to
matoes from Mexico and even celery
from Mississippi. At this rats It won't
bo a very long time before we will be
importing the real southern watermelon,
from Georgia.
From Florin, California, there 'have
been several shipments of strawberries
to this market during the past week.
With the progress of the season prices
are getting- lower and very choloe fruit
may now be obtained la the retail mar
kets at IS cents a pound box. It won't
be long, however, before ordinary mor
tals without Carnegie pocketbooks will
be able to partake.
From faraway Los Angeles the local
trade Is getting' most of the cabbage
used here. Some shipments have been
recently received from San Francisco
but you can tell .the stocks from .that
market- by the smell and: the large
leaves.- Borne shipments from the Bay
City arrived in so poor -a condition that
tbey were dumped. This is the cause
of ths very high prices ruling for good
cabbage. ...... , . ,t ..V.,--.-'
There has been some Increase during
the week In supplies of-local cauliflower.
Ths quality is so much better than that
recently received.' from, ths south that
the two cannot bo compared, r Most, of
the good atuff is ralaed near Portland.
Price high, however. "" -
Local asparagus Is fast driving out
the California production, for while Cal
ifornia has somewhat of a reputation
for ' producing asparagus for canning
purposes the stock is not nearly aa good
ss the homo-grown when It arrives here.
With the larger supplies ths price is not
quite so high. ...
Florida bell peppers are still regularly
received in this city but there is not a
very heavy sale on account of the high
prices asked. Some will soon be coming
from California and then fried and
pickled peppers will be on the bill of
; .v;-, -y
Ton will " soon get relief from ' the
enormous high prices now ruling for
old onions. Local supplies are well
nigh exhausted but some ' are being
brought to the Paelflo coast from Texas
and while they, arc not as good as the
Oregons when the latter is la season
they are very - good as a substitute.
Tbey are selling at lower prices.
Potatoes remain very high and will
likely remain up until the close of the
present season, which is fnly a month
longer than usual swing to the flooding
of ths California islands and delaying
the crop there. Some aew potatoes were
received during the -week from Mexico'
and although the first sales were mado
at 15 cents a pound in the retail mar-',
kets von can now buy them around 10
centa,,. tf r-s
Butter ban been dropping so fast of
late that It is quits hard to keep track
of the prices. Ths larger arrivals of
cream enabled the creameries to pull
down the price. This they are-very
willing to do for their profits are larger
when butter is cheapest a queer state
ment perhaps but nevertheless true. Ask
your creamery man. More drops are ex
pected during the next few daya
This season has provea most wonder
ful in the egg market. The price goes
dowa ons day because supplies are in
creased snd within the following ' 14
hours the . cooler ' weather curtails the
shipments and thea up goes the value
again. There is not likely to bet much
change from present figures.
Tou can again buy cheese In the local
markets, for supplies have arrived from
Tillamook and some from the east. For
over a week most of the groceries have
been without their regular allowance of
cheese because the steamer could not get
to Tillamook oa account of an unfavor
able bar. Prices high now but will
soon bs lowor. ,.- . -- v . "
Ths season is again open for Columbia
river chlnook salmon and after a month's
fasting you can secure the fresh ar
ticle In the retail markets today. On ac
count of the small catch prices remain
high In all markets. The small catoh is
due to the muddy condition of the river.
This allows the fish to escape up the
river but whan ths waters become olesr
again the catch will likely be that much
heavier.
The, new law enacted at the recent
session of the legislature will stop most
of ths peddling .of shad and smelt by
hawkers. . The new law -compels all
dealers In - fish to tnks out ' a license.
According to a member of the legisla
ture from this county ths law was 'se
cured by deceit snd will likely be re
pealed at the next session of the legis
lature because It was not Intended to
put a charge on the selling of smelt and
shad because these fish are not Bro
tected, . - - ... .
