GRIFFITH DINNER
CAUSES COMMENT
Not a P. R.. L'& P. Jollifita
tion Say Solons Who Were
. His Guests. ;
. - . '. (Staff Cor: -inoncIenc.
Salem, Or., Feb. 7. A little dinner
party in the Hotel Marion grill room
last night in honor of the birthday of
Franklin T. Griffith, chief counsel for
the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Co., is attracting som comment today.
This comment comes from the fact
that prominent members of the senate
and house were present at the feast,
and it followed close upon the heels of
a victory won by the Portland railway
company yesterday over Senator Dlm
ick's bill to include the water power
plant at Willamette Falls within the
limits of Oregon City, although the day
before Dlmlck had won a fight' substi
tuting a report in favor of the bill for
a majority report against it.
Griffith, therefore, had additional
cause for rejoicing in the burial of the
Dlmlck bill, which coincided with his
birthday, and it was noted that nearly
all of the legislators who participated
at the feast were men opposed to Dim
ick's lawmaking ideas.
Still further significance was at
tached to the gathering because it was
recalled that two years ago, after the
defeat of Dlmick'a eight hour bill In
the senate, a dinner was given to many
members of the legislature.
Members "among those present" say
the dinner was In no sense a Jollifica
tion over the defeat of tht Dlmlck bill.
A large number ot those attending are
personal friends of Mr. Griffith, and
th v say it is nothing short of out
rageous that any wrong construction
should be placed upon the dinner in his
honor. Matters of legislation were in
no way mentioned, It is stated.

The senate adopted a concurrent reso
lution to observe Lincoln's birthday with
appropriate ceremonies. The house
chamber will be used for tho occasion

"First Aid" Bill Tip Again.
-Another real test between progrcs
Sives and reactionaries Is forecasted in
the "first aid1' bill Introduced by Rep
resentative Bryant, progressive, ';' of
Pierce county. The ''first aid" alms to
give immediate relief to workmen and
working women who are injured in the
course of their employment. This in
cludes medical attendance and hospital
fees.' Two years ago, the "first aid" was
knocked out of the industrial compensa
tion bill by a narrow vote, Speaker Tay
lor himself taking the" floor to whip
the reactionaries inlolino , ' -
Aliens Have strong "Look-in."
The house is on record as favoring
the submission to the people of a con
stitutional amendment permitting aliens
to own real estate in Washington. Only
Japanese and Chinese are excluded. Rep
resentative AVray offered an amendment
to the bill as fathered by Representative
Hughes of Whatcom, to allow all for
eigners he same privilege, but it was
voted; down,' The Hughos bill was
adopted by a vote of 70 to 25. At pres
ent aliens who declare their Intention
to becomo cltisens may acquire land.
The amendment will permit forelgnors
who nover put foot on American soil,
and foreign corporations to own' Wash,
ington property. v
Teachers' ; Pension ravored.
' That the teachers' pension bill will
pass the senate when It comes up for
final debate next Tuesday, is a practical
certainty, according to Senator Davis,
Progressive, author of the bill. Only Id
senators of the 42 are avowedly against
It, senator Davis claims. Both senate
and house members have received thou
sands of letters from all parts of the
state urging the enactment of the bill.
' Tipping will no longer be a violation
ot the law if the senate concurs In the
house bill. The repeal of this law,
which has been oh the books for four
years but never enforced, was ordered
by an overwhelming vote of the house,
only 15 voting to retain it.
The Washington State Federation ot
County Sheriffs is today on record
against giving publicity to pardons and
paroles, advocating that notice bo given
only to peace officers. This they claim
will aid a pardoned man In getting u

The house is again on record as op
postfig one of Governor , Lister's recom

abolishment of the state tax commis

FREED CHINESE
THANKS JUDGE
Release Prom Jail on Bonds
Joy to Accused -Celestial.
Though Tee Gueng, the Chinaman
who has spent nearly five years -in ths
county jail awaiting a new trial for
murder, refused polntblank to plead
trnlltv in mnslniirhtair li rsS nlnii
yesterday by Circuit Judge Davis on
IS00O bonds pending action by the
United States supreme cour,t. 0 He was
as haDDV as a lark and his ta
continually wreathed with smiles as ha
greeted friends.
Tee Gueng was convicted in 1909 for
the murder of Lee Tal Hoy during a tong
custurnance March 7, 1908. . Ho was sen
tenced to hang by Judge Bronaugh and
an appeal was taken to the ntatn mi.
preme court which reversed tlie action
or me lower court, and ordered another
trial. Lent Woon, convicted of the same
crime as the principal, was also sen
tenced to hang and his sentence was at
firmed by the state supremo court
On the Ground t hat h ni nrnsuu.A
w f ""U.J.
on an information after an Initiative
measure had been passed making indict
ments imperative Lem Woon appealed
to the federal court and this appeal ii
still pending. As this appeal applies to
Tee Gueng as well, attorneys for Tee
have waited for it to be handed down
rather than have a retrial. Should the
.decision favor Lem Woon it will also
serve to release Tee.
Denial bt the appeal by the federal
court will mean that Lem Woon must
hang, and that Tee Gueng must stand
trial again. Tee Gueng is an invalid to
a great extent, and has been for a long
tune. .
The most touchlnr nn vuti,ti
" j uu.uiu.;
was the meeting of Judge McGinn and
Tee after th8 latter was released. With
a wild and happy cry Tee Gueng caught
sight of the Judge, and his happy voice
rang inrough the county clerk's office
as he poured forth his thanks for as
sistance which Judge McGinn has given
him. During his incarceration Tee
uueng learned to read and write Eng
lish,' and he spent much of his time
during the past few months writing
lotters to Judge McGinn,
Plans bad been made to hnr r,i
Gueng plead guilty to manslaughter and
petitions would have been prepared to
ask executive clemency of Governor
West, When Tee Gueng heard of the
