SIHHOTt BILL
Manufacturers Oppose Eight
Hour LawOther Jleas
. ' ' ,iires Objectionable T
Final " plana . looking toward unified
and aggressive" action, against proposed.
1 .legislation antagonistic to employer and
employe alike wera perfected at a
,. meeting of the Manufacturers' associa
tion of Oregon last night, at which
representatives of more than $30,000,
1)00 invested in Oregon were present.
Concerted opposition will be made to
tne Hinnott Mil. now Detore the state
' legislature, which provides among other
things for an eight hour working day,
the proposed employers' liability laws
and a' measure providing for euch an
attachment law as la now operative ia
the state of Washington. u .
. According to 'the representations of
the manufacturers the eight hour phase
. of the Sninott bill would operate against
both themselves and their employee in
i that the one would be deprived of the
additional labor, often times when such
- waa vitally necessary, - and . that the
other would lose at least one fifth of
the present wage.- It is stated that
' a number or manuracturera nave re
ceived petitions front their employes
,, urging me aeieat oi me out. Manu
racturers contend that such a measure
would tend to drive millions of dollars
seekina investment from, the state.
- That employers' liability, or fellow
servant bill, which the manufacturer
so - strongly oppose, I proposes to hold
the employer liable for practically any
or all accidents which may occur in
' his establishment, whether due to de
lects or carelessness, one or the r ma
tures of the other liability hill intro
duced, and which Is also opposed, would
allow the : recovery of an unlimited
. amount of damages - in -case of death
and also the Jury and not tns Judge,
as now. to fix the award.
The proposed law regarding the at
tachment or salaries limits me rignu
of the creditor.- . - .

association has had a delegation of lob

In extenuation of this strange lapse
pf memory. Sawyer told his wife, the
latter says, that until he returned from
that remarkable -trip on January 18 his
mind had been an absolute blank con
cerning his life In Peiinsylvania-that
he did not remember anything; about It.
How he remembered to send back to
Matamoras, Pa for- the transfer of his
Odd Fellows' lodge card is not ex-'
plained. . -
Sawyer refuses to make any state-!
ments. He says he does not want pub- ;
licity. ' But his friends say that he will;
get a divorce from wife No. 1 and will),
remarry wife No. 2. Sawyer has noth-,
ins; to say on this score. He has no
children by either wife. ' .
i The grand jusar could not agree on
the evidence agafnst Sawyer aa brought
by Oale Devore and dropped the case.
His trial on the polygamy charge is
expected to come , up within a few
weeks.
