llany Bills Killed by Legis
. latnre to Come Before
Electors Under Initiative
at Next ' Election Labor
; Pleasures Included in List
A new crop 'of measures rejected by
the legislature is likely to come before
me peopie or me state at the election
of J9J0 through the tnltlativs.- The in
terests behind several measures are deJ
tcrmined that they will not be balked
ky adverse action of iti. legislators. At
least, ftve Initiative proposals seem to
ne assured. s, .
All the bills distinctively known ' as
"labor bills- ar dead. In this classi
fication Were the employers' liability
set,, the Kellaffer bill, removing the
17660 limit on damages collectible for
death of an employe, and the eight
hour bill. . Representatives of labor de
clare that in some form, perhaps in a
bill combining features of each of the
entombed bills, will be brought before
the people.
Another is the Proportional represen
tation bill killed in the senate. This de
veloped unexpected - strength Jn the
senate, at least one-third of the member
ship being favorable to it. Senator Sel
Ing has promised that the people will
be given an opportunity to carry into
effect ' the provisions of the constitu
tional amendment on this subject which
they adopted by a large majority last
June.. '
The tax revision amendment advo
cated by the state grange has not yet
been killed, but seems to be doomed.
The grange leaders have stated that
they will carry the issue to the front
If the legislature does not submit the
proposal to segregate state and county
taxation, . By . this system It would be
possible- to levy stats taxes on a dif
ferent basts from the counties, instead
his anti-trust bill will ' be revived by
the initiative. ' He thinks the measure
was misunderstood by the labor unions
and fruit growers, and that the people
would approve It after full discussion
in given. Bingham has an anti-trust
bill in the senate that has not yet re
ceived a death thrust, and there is a
bar possibility that It will -struggle
through. V y ' '
The people of Cottage Grove are go
ing to carry the fight for the new coun
ty of Nesmlth before the people." They
did not expect to win .before the legis
lature, but they hope the people will
look with favor on their aspirations, as
was done in the case of Hood River.
Of course, if -he water code bill should
fail, it would be taken before the peo-
pie. But it . is thought to have a
smooth course in the house and Its
prospects have brightened la the senate,
upon the action of the legislature dur
ing' the next two weeks depends the
use of the initiative on several other
bills that are now hanging in the bal

Dayton, Ohio, Feb. S. The police to
day Questioned Albert Wllkle. who. ac
cording to. the family of Kilns Elizabeth)
uinari, wnose body was round yester-
aay m an aoanaonea cistern, was
sweetheart of the girl. Roy Cooley, i
other admirer, was also questioned, bi;
neither threw any light on the mur
der. . '
The police later derided there was no
reason for holding Wllkle and Cooley,
and they will probably be released.
Wllkle told the authorities that on
the night of the girl's disappearance he
had an. engagement to meet her, and
that later he and Miss Fulhart's brother
searched for her.
The bodv was found in an ahanrinnori
cistern on the estate of E. P. Matthews.
in ine center of a residence section of
the city.
There Is one feature of the murder
oi Elizabeth ..Fulhart In which it dif
fers radically from that of Dona Oil
man, Anna Markowitz and Mary Forsch
ner, but in which it parallels almost
exactly the murder, in lttOl, of Ada
lant, a lrl. or 13. This was the first
of a series of crimes that have baffled
the Dayton police. Dona Gilman. Anna
Markowlts and Mary Forschner all were
choked to death. Bones In the necks of
Dona Gilman and Anna Markowlts had
been crushed as If brought between the
jaws oi a vice, miss L&ntz showed no
signs of strangulation. Neither does
ma Doay or jmtzaoetn Fulhart.
fAda-Lants had given a party at her
norae ana in tne midst of the games
stepped to the yard. When she did not
return, searcners round ner, crammed
head first Into a vault. Doctors con
cluded she had been smothered.
Dayton first awoke to the peril of its
women when Dona Gilman met her
death. She was employed at the Na
tional Cash Register works. November
SO. 1906, . her family, alarmed by her
failure to return home the nlzht hn-
; fore, notified the police. Her muti
lated body was found in a lot near
'her. home. After weeks Davy Curtis,
fa 15-year-old boy, was arrested. Ho
made a confession, but the confession i
(was repudiated. An alibi was estab
lished for Curtis. Later Mrs. Gilman,
her daughter and her son were arrest
ed, aunougn ine coroner's verdict
showed that Dona bad been assaulted.
They were acquitted, but the mother
died from the shock.
August 5, Anna Markowitz, her sis
ter Bertha and Abe Cohen, a friend,
were in Lakeside park when a man
leaped from the bushes behind them
and fired a revolver. Cohen was shot
in the back. As Bertha escaped she
saw her sister in the grip of the man.
Cohen died without regaining conscious
ness. Layton Hines, a negro, arrested
after public clamor had grown to a
storm, was put through the "third de
gree" and the police claimed to have
obtained a confession. He repudiated
it at the trial, but he got a life sen
tence. Next came the case of Mary Forsch
ner. She was found two weeks ago to
night in a shack near hej home. The
motive for her murder had been the
same as in the Gilman and Markowlts
cases.

Helena Legislator Announ
ces Intention of Intro
ducing Measure.
Helena, Mont., Feb. . The fifth
week of the Montana legislative as
sembly has witnessed rather strenuous
debates along political ltnea and other
wise, in tne senate, alter a long and
earnest debate in which race prejudice
and Jim Crow principles were more or
less at issue, the miscegenation law, re
lating to the white, black, Japanese and
Chinese races, was passed.
In the house, the so-called Oregon
?rimary system for the election of Uni
ed 6tates senators was passed, the
Democrats defeating the Republican
plan by a strictly party vote. That the
Republicans will get revenge, when It
reaches the senate is certain.
After a fight which has continued
with more or less bitterness from the
day the legislature convened. . the anti
poolroom and bookraaking measure has
passed, but with separate bills in each
house. That some such legislation will
be enacted seems certain.
A member of the house from Helena
has announced his Intention of intro
ducing an anti-Japanese measure pat
terned after that In California, whlsb
so aroused President Roosevelt.
More than 100 loggers and woodmen
will .come from all parts of Oregon to
day and tomorrow to attend the funeral
of Antone Moe. the Norwegian logger
who was shot and killed Thursday niarht
by Hans Goodager. The services will be
held tomorrow.
For more than five vmri Mn was
head train loader for the Oreeon Timber
& Lumber company, at Clifton, Or., and
was one of the bent known woodmen in
the northwest. From Clifton alone a
large number of loggers will arrive to
day. They have wired ahead orders for
elaborate floral pieces for the grave and
casket.
D. L. Smlthson. nroorletor of th
North Portland restaurant, la in charge i
of the funeral arrangements. He knew
Moe well. The services will be held
at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon at Dun
ning, M( Entee & Gtlbaugh's chapel. The
body Will be interred in Rivervlew cem
etery.
Moe was killed in Goodager's saloon
6n North Third street. Goodager de
clares that Moe had been drinking heav
ily and was 111 tempered. Goodager,
who was also Intoxicated, it is said,
is in jail. A charge of murder in the
first degree will probably be made
against him.
Moe's mother and father live in Min
nesota. They have been communicated
with but will be unable to attend the
funeral.
