NAMED ON 'COMMITTEE
Legislature Asked to Name a
Committee to Act With
' Board's Appointees.
(Stiltm Burma tt Tit Journal.)
Salem, Or., Jan. 18. -That the site
chosen for the eastern Oregon branch
asylum at Pendleton Is not suitable for
such' an institution, and that another lo
cation will have to be selected unless
the state wishes to ' make a grievous
blunder that never can be corrected, is
the opinion of the state board, consist
ing of Governor Oswald West and State
Treasurer T. B. Kav, after a careful ex
amination of the proposed location made
by the board lost Friday.
Governor Went sont a special message
to the legislative assembly this after
noon In whlrh he lays the matter before
both houses of the legislature, and asks
it to appoint a joint committee for the
purpose of viewing the Pendleton site.
Asks for Commlttea.
In his message, Governor West says
it Is the opinion of both himself and
State Treasurer Kay that the site cho
sen at Pendleton is not suitable for
fiurh an institution, and this decision
has been reached only after a careful
examination made by himself 01 Treas
urer Kay in company with Architect
Louts Hnzeltlne, Engineer C. A. Murphy
and Dr. It. B. L, Stelner of the asylum
at Salem. In his message the governor
recommends that the legislature name"!
a committee of three from the House
and two from the senate to act wltli a
committee of ..'experienced medical ex
perts named by TreasureTfTTay'lrld him
self to examine the site chosen by Jay
Bowerman and report their findings to
the legislature and to the board.
The committee named by Governor
West and Treasurer Kajr consists of Dr.
Harry Lane, Dr. Andrew! C Smith, Dr.
J. ,F. Calbreath and Dr. W. T. William
son, together with State Engineer John
H. Lewis. The governor and the state
treasurer believe that a false step In
locating the Institution would be most
disastrous, not only to the taxpayers,
but to those unfortunates who must live
at the Institution. The legislative com
mittee and this committee .appointed by
the board is asked to Elver their advice
whether they should establish the in
stitution upon the premises selected by
Mr. Bowerman, and If not to assist the
board In selecting a tract that would
be suitable for such proposed Institu
tion. Sends Letter to Committee.
To the committee already selected by
Governor West and Treasurer Kay to
act with a committee which the gov
ernor asks the legislature to name, the
following letter was written Saturday:
"Salem, Or.. Jan. 16. Under an act
providing for the location, construction
and government of a branch insane asy

Washington, Jan. 16. With the ap
proval of President' Taft Rear Admiral
Edward B. Barry, commander of the
Pacific fleet, was today' officially re
tired and transferred- to the retired list
of the navy. The navy department has
been, advised by Rear Admiral Thomas,
- Admiral Barry's successor, that he has
taken over command of the fleet
The retirement ot Admiral Barry waa
effected and officially approved before
the publication of the report that offi
cers of Admiral Barry's flagship, the
West Virginia, had 'made charges re
flecting upon his character. No off l
. r.lal accusations have been received by
the department, and, so far an- is- known
-t here, no action has been taken fcy the
fleet officers which would necessitate
! the calling of a courtmartlal.
San FranolBco, Jan. 1. Whether Rear
Admiral Edward Buttervant Barry will
be courtmartlaled on charges, the pub
lication of which shocked, the naval and
military heads of the natlon.vwlll be
determined at a meeting of officers or
tho cruiser West Virginia and other ves
sels of .the Pacific fleet, which will be
held In San Francisco, probably toraor
tow. When,Admlral Barry and the West
Virginia return to San- Francisco bay
late this afternoon he will formalfy turn

next in rank, but his departure from the
navy will not closa the incident, offi

VAN W ILE S

Attorney Powers Alleges There

(fUlfm Bureia of The Journal.)
Salem, Or., Jan. 16. As a result of
the overruling of a demurrer filed in an
action brought by Attorney Daniel E.
Powers of Portland, alleging that there
is no such office ns assistant attorney
general. I. II. Van Winkle, who has
been acting In that capacity for three
or four years past, is nearly out of a
Job and the Vgislature at this session
will be calledupon to be more explicit
in Its provision for assistance for the
attorney general's office.
Assistant Attorney General Van
Winkle says that the cane will be an
swered by the office and tried out on
Its merits. No injunction has been Is
sued by the court and before final ad
judication has been reached the legis
lature will no doubt correct the statute
providing for the attorney general's as
sistance. The legislature did not fail to
provide the salary for the office and

successfully up to dace. The case was

ential in the navy, from Secretary
George L. Von Meyer down. The sub
stance of most of theso messages was
the request that Admiral Barry's ex
planation of the, predicament in which
subordinate officers on the West Vir
ginia say they found him Tuesday, night
be accepted. They urge that for the
sake of the honor of the navy the whole
axrair be allowed to drop.
On the other hand, officers who are
convinced of the admirals guilt will
Insist that he he treated the same as
any other man In the navy. Ills rank,
they believe, Instead of serving him as
a shield, ehsuld be an argument against

who figured in the expose, are expected
to vote solidly for a court martial. The

according to testimony given today,
was the. advice given "Mrs. Klein," a
deteetlve-nurse, by Mrs. Laura Schenk,
now on trial as a poisoner, when dis
covery of the affair Becnied Imminent.
A great crowd of tlje curious was
present when Mrs-. Klein, wjio Saturday

and the evidence against the accused

to be growing more damaging as the

another nurse, to leave her alone with
Schenk, who at that time was In a
critical condition. During the time
Mrs. Schenk was in the room. Mrs.
Klein said, she heard high words pass
and when the defendant left Schenk's
condition was alarmingly worse.
After that experience, she testified,
the nurse was Instructed not to leave

(Bpeelil Disputes to The .TournnLi
Salem, Or., Jan. 16. While President
Ben Selling, In framing the committees
of the state senate, deals liberally with
those who recently preferred Jay Bow
erman for president of the senate, the
Hat of committees announced today
shows that he has placed progressives
oh guard at the head of the Important
committees.
Senator Nottingham, who was chair
man of the ways and means last session.
Is displaced by Senator Alhee, also of
Multnomah. Nottingham remains on
the committee In a minor position. Atbee
Is known to be In full sympathy with
President Selling's desire for economy,
and will keep a close watch on appro
priation bills.
Malarkey of Multnomah gets the Ju
diciary chairmanship, as was expected.
This is considered the biggest prtge in
the senate, unless it be ways and means,
the latter being the one which holds
the throttle on the state purse.
Dlmlck Oats Chairmanship.
Revision of laws chairmanship, the
other Important place for lawyers' of
the senate, ip awarded to Dlmlck of
Clackamas, another of the leading pro
gressives. Albee, in addition to ways
and means, is given another important
chairmanship, thut of the Insurance-committee.
Bowerman, Selling's recent rival, Is
given the chairmanship of th commit
tee on public lands and Is also assigned
to the judiciary and mining commlt-teest-

The elections committee, usually im
portant, is one of magnitude this session
because of tlje work of reapportionment

JUVENILE COURT WINS
PRAISE BY SAM WHITE
County Jurists, and Commis

Convention Today.
The third annual meeting of the
county Judges and commissioners of Ore
gon was commenced this morning In
the convention hall of the Commercial
club. Twice as many ns attended the
convention lRst year were present when
President J...B. Messick of Baker called
the session to order. The first order
of business was the election of officers,
resulting as follows: i
Judge O. W. Wonacott of Itosehurg.
president; Judpe J. M. Duncan of Linn
county, vice president; Commissioner
Earle Weatherford of Ollllam county,
secretary W. II. Mattoon of Clackamas
county, treasurer.
The address of the morning was by
Judge Sam White upon the "Juvenlltj
Courts of Oregon."
Judge White declared that the work
of the Juvenile courts was becoming In
creasingly r-ooj;ni2ed as a potent factor
for the making of .good citizens, and
ruch a factor was being conceded an
Increasingly Important placo among the
courts of the state.
Judge Wonacott Speaks.
"1 consider the association of county
Judges and county commissioners one of
the most Important organizations In the
state," said the newly elected president,
Judge Wonacott, taking the chair, in
an Interview he snld:
"The only live issue now before all
the people of Oregon Is the making of
good roads. The people in the wonthern
part of the slate are tremendously In
favor of better built highways, nnd they
believe that the legislature should adopt
all five of the good roads bills now
pending before the legislature as a
means for the making of good roads.
If we build roads we build the state.
If we neglect to build roads, we leave
mudholes both In the roads and In the
highway of the state's progress."
"The people from the county I come
from believe that the highway bills
should be passed Just as they have been
framed by the Oregon Good Roads asso
ciation," said County Judge Oeorge D.

CITY IS SUSTAINED
Sale of the Broadway Bonds
Now Practically Certain
Since Kiernan's Objections
Are Swept Aside by Court.
The attempt to prevent the sale of
Broadway bridge bonds made by Frank
Klernan In the United States district
court was blocked today In an opinion
rendered by Judge Bean denying the
application for an injunction restraining
the sale of the bonds and sustaining the
demurer of the city of Portland to the
suit.
This Is the seventh consecutive de
cision given by state and United States
courts In which the legality of the bond
Issue and the propriety of the proceed
ings looking toward the erection of the
bridge have been sustained. The ob
structionists headed by Klernan and
represented In the courts by Ralph Dun
lway, have not won a point in their
fight.
Will Aid Bond market.
Judge Bean's opinion will' have an ex
cellent effect upon the bond market,
It is believed. The fact that every at
tempt to block the sale of the bonds in
court has met with defeat practically
Insures the city getting 100 cents on the
dollar for the Broudway bridge bonds.
That Klernan and Dunlway will ap
peal from the decision rendered today
seems probable. They expect to take the
suit first to the United States circuit
court of appeals and then to the United
States supreme court. They have already
taken an appeal from decisions rendered
in much the same case by the Oregon
supreme court to the United States su
preme court.
The Injunction asked for in the case
before Judge Bean was based upon two
grounds:
First, the petitioners attacked the
initiative and referaridum as destruc
tive of a republican form of government
and therefore obnoxious to tha federal
constitution.
