to know if it was not true that he.'
(Thompson) had promised to vote for
the appropriation bills If consideration
. of them waa deferred until next week.
The intimation in thla question waa that
Thompson waa trying tohold a club
over the head of Eaton, who la a grad
uate of the university and a resident
.of Eugene.
- There were two bills providing for the
state's contribution to new building"
and equipment to the university In the
next two rears. The first called for
; 9S28.268.92 for a new administration
building, for new grounds and equlp-
ment and the extension of the corre
spondence study department of the unl-
versltv. The second called for3 175.000
for a new library building.
Objected to Torm of B11L
Hollls of Washington launched the
debate, declaring that he believed In the
support of worthy educational institu
tions and in giving the university evtry-;
thing within reason, out tnat ne oojeciea
' to the form in which the first bill was
presented. This asked for 1175,000 for
the new administration building and the
" remainder of the $328,000 for equipment
and other things. Hollls contended that
the university did not show proper ap
preciation of the intelligence of the leg-
. islators and that it should have pre
sented the plana for the proposed bulld
lngs. ..
"I believe the legislature Is entitled
. to know the character and class of the
buildings to be erected," he said. .."I
do not believe personally in investing
one dollar in buildings of a temporary
character." .
- - "I told Mr. Eaton that if he would
put off consideration of these bills,"
- said Thompson in launching his attack,
"I would investigate the matter and
perhaps vote for them. He has not
done so and from the hasty investiga
tion I have made, I have learned that
" the university can get along without
the new administration building. We
should remember that times are not
' what they might be. There are signs
of unrest and money Is going to be
tight I believe the pruning knife
should be applied now.
"I am a friend of education and if I
inougnt me university bad to have all : the September primaries, twice attempt
that they ask I would be the last to j a to take the Kellaher epistle from
vote no and the first to vote yes. But,
'. why do they not bring requests for
what la absolutely necessary, separate
this request and let us pass upon them
Individually, instead of throwing them
all together in this form."
, Hot True, ffayi Thompioa.
"'I have but a few words to say In
reply to Mr. Thompson," said Eaton
as he arose, "and I will put them in
the form of a question. Mr. Thompson,
Is it not true that you told me that If
this appropriation matter went over
until next week you would stand for
nr
"It Is not." replied Thompson.
Abrams of Marlon and Ambrose of
Multnomah both followed with brief
taiKs m which they declared that there
was great need for Improving conditions I
bi tne university.
University a Joke,
The university of Oregon Is a stand
ing Joke on the Pacific mam and ha.
been for the last 10 or 15 years," de-I
clared Cole of Multnomah. "Mr. Ma- !

The reason there are only 700
Is because the university is not emirnner!
and unable to care for the number they
have. If given what they are entitled
to you would see it grow and It would
cease to be a standing joke.
"It Is not true as said by Mr. Mahoney
and Mr. Thompson that these are times
for retrenchment. Oregon people and
outside capital are investing more than
ever before in Oregon and, it Is only
natural that the state, should Invest
more. I am heartllv aatlWriM t)it th.

$100,000 In four years. He declared J.
W. Baker had offered the state printer
110,000 a year for the privilege, of run
ning the plant and had been refused.
Barrett Of Washington spoke In op
position to any change. He aaid the
people at the last election preferred
Dunlway to a man who ran upon a flat
salary platform, and thereby approved
the present method of conducting the
office.
The Miller bill appropriates $20,000
for purchase of a plant by the state
and provides a salary of $4000 a. year
for the state printer. Miner reaa ng

Because of the suggested amendments
of Bean, the bill waa placed on the ta

Efforts of Abraham to Have
3000 Word Epistle Con
sidered Is No Go.
(Special Dtapatch to The Journal.)
Salem, Or., By sitting heavily on
the Ud, the senate yesterday postponed
for a time the storm over expunging
the "canned" speech of Senator Dan
Kellaher on the Oregon system of laws
from its. official records.
Abraham, who waa touched in a sore
spot by Kellahers reference to him as
the desk and have It considered. The
first time he quit when Senator Bean,
chairman of the committee on revision
of the dally foumal, stated that his
committee is preparing to report upon
the matter.
Later Abraham called the matter up
again,' saying Bean was ready to pro
ceed. It was late in the afternoon,
and there was a large amount of busi
ness on the desk. The senate had voted
to adjourn until Monday, and many of
the members were not disposed to lay
aside this business for tbe spouting of
the orators. Abraham's request to take
the matter waa denied cjr a decided
vote.
Abraham said It was not his inten
tion to consume much time, but the
general opinion Is that time will have
to be given for a few more exchanges
of senatorial compliments before the
Kellaher speech Is finally laid away.
As It stands the speech, with Its 8000
word defense of Bourne and charges
against his enemies, has the right to
enterea m tne journal ana puunsned.

torted Clyde. "Why do you wait until
thi .last minute and make an eleventh
hour attack on the appropriation?"
"I did not file a report because I
was not present when the matter was
taken up In the committee," answered
Mahoney.
i McKlnney Makes Plea.
! McKlnney of Baker, also a graduate
of the university, made an eloquent
j defense for the appropriation. He
maintained that the regents and people
of Eugene were not- trying to graft
from ,he e. but that the present!
I equipment and buildings were utterly

I obliged to stand up !n some of the

were erected immediately, Oregon young

I On the first bill, the only ones to
! vote against the $328,000 appropriation
were Brownhlll, Carter, Graves, Hollls,
l-lbhy, Miller (Linn), Shaw Simpson,
Smith and Tlgard. Hollls exnlalned
that one reason for his vote was that
he feared the referendum would be

vote for the first time, he said, con

CLASH EXPECTED
WITH OLD GUARD
Effort to Be Made in House, to
Substitute Derby Bill for
Bowerman' -
(Special DUpttrh to The Journal.)
Salem. Or., Feb. 11. The "Old Guard"
and progressives In the house will
again locks horns this afternoon an the
bill creating an assistant secretary of
state and providing that he shall be
a member of the board fit 'control. A
motion to reconsider the vote will be
made to defeat the bill and pass the
one Introduced by Derby of Hood River,
which does not make the assistant' sec
retary a member of the board . of con
trol. - ,'.' . . "
On - this move the house will prob
ably become a hurricane center. Thomp
eorv of Lake, leader of the Bowerman
forces has expected that It would come
and is endeavprlng to hold those who
voted with him Wednesday In line. To
do this, it Is charged he attempted to
defer consideration of the university of
Oregon appropriation until next week
in order to clinch the Lane county rep
resentatives. This phase of the fight
caused the clash ln the house this
morning over the university bills. In
which it was charged that the "Old
Guard" was trying to punish Eaton
for not standing .with them against re
consideration of the assistant secre
tary of state bill, i
Ambrose and. Cole have become con
vinced that the Derby bill in Its' re
vised form will not be unconstitutional
and will therefore change their votes.
Abbott of Multnomah, because of
other considerations. Is immovable.
Eaton and probably the other members
of the Lane delegation- will vote against
the "Old Guard." ' There are ' one or
two additional defections from the
Thompson ranks, which indicate that
the Bowerman bill will be defeated
this afternoon. ' ,

FIGHTS' JUDGES' RECALL

the administration today concentrated In
the assembly, which Is believed to be
less favorable than the senate, to the
inclusion of the Judiciary.
In the senate more than 30 votes for
the recall of Judges are practically

In the assembly opposition to making
the bench subject to the will of the
people grows. From all over the state
leading lawyers are crowding here to
work against that feature of the recall
bill.
