Judge DeHaven of tha tin I ted States

The attorneys for the companies

I understand that the Union Pacific has

Court Injunction Until Mon
day Will Guard Bennett's
BeaTerdam Land.
Until Monday, at least, tha protection
of an injunction will surround -the E. P.
Bennett horseradish patch on the Una
of the Oregon Electric Railway com
pany, near Beaverton. The attorneys
for and against appeared before Judge
Gantenbeln this morning for the pur
pose of arguing, out a motion, to dis
solve tha Injunction, but Bennett's at
torney said he was not prepared to
meet an affidavit made by C. J. Mil
ler, chief engineer for tha railway. He
explained that his client Is busy guard
ing the horseradish. i
"My client is down on the farm near
Beaverton," said the attorney. "He can
not get away, for he ia very busy keep
ing tne raiiroaa people on mo uun
wherf the horseraidsh grows.' I need
him Jiere to make a counter affidavit,
but I can't get him here In time to take
up tne question toaay.-
The legal champion of the railroad
resented the suggestion that it is necey
sary for Bennett to maintain a warlike
attitude on the edge' of the horseradish
patch. He said that since the . injunc
tion has been Issued tha railroad people
have observed it, and they have not
gone near -the premises. .
"They are Just outside the fence,"
was the retort from the other aide,.
Judge Gantenbeln decided that the
case should go over until Monday morn
ing to give Bennett an opportunity to
make an affidavit In response to the
verbose document filed on tha railroad
aide thia morning.
The railroad this morning filed -it
answer in the case, In which it is de
nied that there has ever been any In
tention to disturb tha peaceful horse
radish owned by Bennett, . who has
leased a SO-acre tract from John Henry.
The railroad some time ago began a
condemnation suit In Washington coun
ty to secure a 60-foot right of way
through the tract, and since that time
haa secured - a deed from the owner.
Chief engineer Miller asserts that the
grading is all done through the horse
radish patch and that there will be
no more digging or damage. All that
remains Is to lay the ties and rails,
and the railroad is anxious to lay the
track so -that material may be carried
ta pointa beyond.

Mayor Lane this morning signed the
weed ordinance, and after this those
Cltlsens who don't cut their own will
have a Hen placed against their prop
erty for the amount of what it taker to
cut the arrass and remove tha weeds.
The ordinance refers t all property
within 120 feet of the graded streets,
and states that all grass, weeds, thistles
and other growth must be Kept below 10
incnes. . .., . .
In attempting to enforce the old ordl
nance the police have been kept busy
most of tha summer and fall chasing
owners i or real estate ana compelling
them to keep their holdings In decent
condition. - The lien clause In the new
ordinance will remedy this objection, it

Statutes providing for the care and
control of the various state Institu
tions," continued the governor. "These
duties were those performed by boards
of control in other states and did not
come under tha duties of the executive
or of the secretary or the treasurer.
Conseauentlv at different times stat
utes were enacted by the legislature
providing i nav various poarai do created,
consisting tor the most part of the gov
ernor, secretary of etate and state treas
urer., whoae duties should be tha con
trol and care of tha institutions under

- Other Salaries.
Tn accordance with this course the
governor was made a member of the
board of control of the reform school at
an annual salary of $260: of the mute
school at a salary of $250; of the in
sane asylum at $500; of the domestic
animal commission at $250; of the board
of public building commissioners at' a
salary of $1,000, and the board of prison
lnsoectlon at $500. The salaries for all
of these boards and commissions taken
In connection with the 11,600 provided
for under the constitution made the
annual salary of the governor $4,250,
rallaey of Position. ,
The fallacy of MeMahon'a position and
his animus is shown by the fact that
uovernor Geer, uovernor- ixra, mate
Treasurer Moore and other - officials
have all operated under the same stat
utes and have not been brought within
the ban of his displeasure. The weak
ness of his position is perhaps beat il
lustrated by the situation of the su
preme coitrt or me state av. in prea
ent time.
Under the constitution the Justices of
tne court are eacn allowed an annual
salary of $2,000. Long after the adop
tion of the constitution, either at the
legislative session or ls or or iskj,
a statute was enacted creating the east
ern Oregon judtclsl distriot, and giving
each member of the court an additional
salary of $2,500 a year for holding court
In that district. This statute In effect
gives eacn memoer or tha court a sal
ary of $4,600 a year, when the constitu
tional provision is only $2,000. . .
"In my messages of 1003 and of
lot to ma legislature, in support and
advocacy of the flat salary law for
siaie oiricia.s passed at the 1906 Ses
sion I argued the questions Involved
in this controversy all out, taking them
from the old constitutional standpoint
The legislature has the right to pro
vide compensation for such tasks as
those created by the establishment of
the aeyium ooara or reform . school
board and this fact has been established 1
by executive, legislative and Judicial
sanction since the earlv riavi nf , h
state. .The legislature haa Just aa much
right -to, -provide such compensations
and the officials to accept them,- as
that body had to enact the flat salary
law. and for officials ta rim w thilV
salaries under this law. That 4s all
there is to tha contention. Mr. Mc
Mahon does not charge the acceptance
of any comnensatlons other than those
provided for by statute.' What be
wants is for me to return those funds
received by me, and given by the legislature--
to the governor, the secretary
of state and the state treasurer for offi
cial dutiea created by the legislature
and not contemplated .by the constitu
tion, iiki is iu mere is xo 11."
The supreme court has accepted this
statute and tha salary going with- it,
and is now operating under the law, the
justices not having been put on a flat
salary by the law of. 1905. Therefore
McMahon. should he Institute his suit
against the governor and finally get It
Into the supreme court, will be asking
the court to declare that the memfura
of the court have been violating the law
ana receiving illegal compensations for
their service. They have and are doing
the same thing that McMahon threatens
to Sue the governor for having done.
