A resolution was passed directing the publication of 1 an ordinance for paving McCrum ave nue.'.' A vigorous protest was entered by W. 8. Lauthers against thp condition in which the excavating work on the Burlington street sewer had been left by Contractor Seybold. It was sug geSted that inasmuch as the contractor had not given final notice of comple tion of the work, and the street commit tee had not passed on the work. It was somewhat premature for the whole council to consider the protest, which was referred to the street committee. An aro light waa ordered installed at the Junction of Jersey and Maple streets. This light makes six additional standard aro lamps that have been ordered placed In prominent locations during the last two months. - An ordinance was passed assessing the cost of the Jersey street sldewsjk from Chicago street to Burlington street.

Attorney Fisher and Chief Engineer .Smith from the Mount flood Light & Power company asked permission to erect poles and string the necessary wires for. furnishing light and power Jn the city under franchise. These of ficials predicted that the new power house at St Johns would be completed about the middle of April, and they an nounced that they would, be In a post- . tion to supply current to' customers be fore the end of the present year. The machinery to be Installed In the new power house is designed to "develop about ,000 horsepower. The officials V.

Councilman Davis endeav ored to draw from the officials some definite announcement of plans for car service, and while they were non com mittal as to the date when they would fating up the question of a street car franchise in St Johns, they conveyed the impression that it would be as soon 'as the question of franchise and right t way in the more Immediate vicinity of Portland had been definitely deter mined. The lighting franchise passed a first reading and was referred to the city, attorney for, consideration. Maooabees Install Officers.

BOURNE TARGET OF DISGRUNTLED ONES IN SENATE (Continued from Page One.) politics of Oregon," while Malarkey de clared him "morally and mentally unfit to represent Oregon in the United States senate." ft Inn eft's rials Words, All of.tliis was Intended to throw the personalities of Bourne into debate, and It brought a significant warning from Fenator Sinnott of Wasco declaring he was neither a friend nor foe to Bourne, but bad condemned Bourne's past rec ord,; while others who now assail the senator were extolling him, Sinnott said. "If you are going to incarnate hatred of the Oregon rystem in Jonathan Bourne, if you try to undermine the Oregon system of laws by attacking him, you will find behind Jonathan Bourne a compact body of 75,000 votes in this state, voters who now have no great regard for him." Calkins Strong for Assembly, Calkins of Lane was the most out spoken in condemnation of parts of the Oregon system. He said he regarded the initiative as vicious and Incapable of being changed so as to be satisfac tory. He approved the referendum, but landed hard on the recall, which he also termed "vicious." He said it is a club held over executive and Judicial of ficers, intimidating them in the per- Termance of what they ought to do. The direct primary and corrupt prac tices act he favored, but opposed State ment No. 1. As a climax he added: "If you who are divided about the wording of this resolution were to do as I Would do, you would hold a caucus, an , assembly, or a convention, decide what to do, and then stand for it" ' HSinnott said If the resolution had originally been drawn by him he did not know how he would have worded It, but he was hot willing to retreat under fire or insert mild and soothing lan guage to placate those who hate the Oregon laws. He declared his confi dence in the Oregon system. Conceding It has imperfections, he declared that the people have not gone wrong oftener than has tba legislature, with Its past history of corruption and abortive laws. Malarkey, while denouncing Bourne, supported the Kellaher resolution, which in effect praised the. initiative and referendum, the direct primary, the corrupt practices act and. the recall, affirmed the belief of the legislature that these laws constitute the best sys tem f" government .' in" the " world and commended this system , to the legisla tures of other states. Malarkey sought to have the resolution . amended to strike i out , the "best system of the world'' phrase, but after this failed ha ; - 0- . fell in Una for the unexpurged version ss Insisted upon by Kellaher. . ' Defeated by 17 to 11. After the orators had become ex. hausted and the roll was called, the resolution met defeat bya vote of 17 to 11. . with Joseph, and . Parish aoseni. There were three roll calls, the first on MalarkevB motion to recommit witn instructions to amend,- the second on the minority report killing the resolu tion. The vote here given la on ths mi nority report, perhaps the clearest , In dex of all; For Barrett of Umatilla, Dlmlck, Kellaher, Locke, Malarkey, McColloch Miller, Oliver, Patton.

Chase, Hawley, Hos- kins, Lester, Merryman, Norton, Not tingham, Wood, president Selling 17. The final vote on adoption or tne majority report killing the resolution was the same except that Von der Hel len switched over to the majority, and Nottingham, who had stepped outside the bar of, the senate when his name was called, was not permitted to vote, He tried to do so by asking unanimous consent but Kellaher, In thunderous tone objected. XsUahsr laagnt Save Won. Kellaher probably could have won the day had he been willing to modify the resolution to the extent or omitting the declaration that the Oregon system is 'The best in the world." Albee. who has always been a friend of Oregon's popular laws, insisted this was unwise, and voted against it So did Belling, who likewise appeared in strange com pany, and so did Barrett of w ashing ton, who said he would vote ths. other way If the pruning shears were appiiea. Change of these three votes would have made it 14 to 14, and others might hare sons into the Kellaher camp had he consented to modify; ; Albee took the stand that, while" haw ing faith in the laws adopted by the people, he was not prepared to say tbat they are the best In the world. VottUgnam rears Kellaher. Nottingham expressed the opinion that the object of the resolution Is ad vertising and said he did not believe in these good intentions ,of Kellaher. McColloch of Baker said he was will ing to Indorse the resolution Just as It stood, as it expressed his belief that Oregon's system of laws is the best" in the world. Bowermsn spoke in sarcastlo vein, devoting much of his time to an exco riation of Bourne. He said the resolution was not comprehensive enough, because it did not Indorse all the laws passed by the people. He suggested additional clauses, calling attention to the home rule bill, the two blls "annihilating" the fishing Industry on the Columbia, ths referendum on the appropriation bill in 106, the vote on the tax amend ment last year, the Jury amendment, the other acts meeting his disapproval. As exhibits, he said, he would attach the senior United States senator, one of the nine foot ballots, and one of the of ficial pamphlets sent out to legislation measures to the people. '-: '' ' Norton resented the idea of "putting him on record" when, no legislation Is pending. No one's business what his views are, he declared. . He added that he favors the people's laws, but would vote against the resolution. because it Is useless and would exhibit "arrogance and inordinate conceit" . Chase and Carson next attacked the resolution, the latter announcing he la willing to be called a standpatter. Malarkey delved Into a defense of the resolution and In reply to Bowerman suggested that additional exhibits be attached to tell of the blunders and cor rnption of legislatures of the past He said that except for the Initiative the local option, the direct primary and cor rupt practices act would have been de feated. Miller made an earnest speech in clos ing the debate," In which Tie gave a little history of senatorial elections of tho past recalling -the contests In which Mitchell. Hlrsch. Simon.- Corbett Mo Bride and Fulton figured. 'He rejoiced In the fight among the Republicans and said. If enough rope Is given the Demo crats will elect -the next senator. y The people will not tolerate repeal of the laws enacted, he declared, and the stand patter may ss Well make up their minds to stop the war. A stenographer, called In by Kellaher, took down a full report of the debate and on motion of Malarkey,, the sten ographers - report was made orrioiai. copies to be furnished to each senator desiring them. . -: FLORIDA MEMBER SAYS (Continued from Page One) HAIR GROWER If You Haven't Used Parisian Sage You Don't Really Know What .a Refined Hair Dress ing Is.

Cunningham group. In fact, he admit ted on the stand that he acted in, that capacity. Throughout the whole record It appears that as lawyer, as commis sioner and as secretary of ths Interior, Bellinger fully sympathized with the coat land claimants ' and desired that they be given the patents they desired. Bldnt Want Xw Enforced. "If they had violated the law, he held, it was because the law was absurd. Nowhere does it appear that he wanted the law enforced; nowhere is he flown as safeguarding the publlo Interests. He always seemed to feel it his duty to look out for private interests and to entirely loss sight of the fact that the people's property Was at stake." Fletcher declared that It was posi tively wicked in Bellinger to send "a young lawyer, only a year out of college, and who had never tried a case, to the Pacific coast to defend the government's Interest in ths hearings on the Cun ningham claims." He further asserted that Bellinger, when on the witness stand, was "evasive and apparently afraid that ths truth would came out," and bitterly criticised Oscar Lawlor for participating in the case while bearing malice In his heart against Glavls.

'The college faculty consists of a corps of competent Instructors beaded by Naval Constructor B. S.' Hartley, B. A.
