Wewell Bays Has round Exemption Possible In tba Maas use Apparently Had Hons. Discussing the universal and woman' eight hour laws before tha Oregon Civic League yesterday af ternoon, Mra. A. C. Newell reported that "he had found an exemption pos sible In measures that apparently pro vide none. "An unmarried man who Is a member of this league Is worrying about tha application of these proposed laws to housewives," said Mrs, Newell. "He seemed immensely relieved when told that even If both the universal eight hour bill and the woman's eight-hour bill become laws, a man can still work his wife 16 hours a day." Mrs. Newill added that although the bill forbids any person to be employed more thai) eight hours a day, it en forces the penalty against the em ployer and to that extent seems to make it possible . for a person by working for more than one employer to put in more than eight hours a day. - All Sides Considered. The Civic League meeting was de voted to discussion, from affirmative and negative points of view, of some of the important measures to be voted on November 3. . . Judge John H. Stevenson said that by speaking of "citlsens" Instead, of "registered voters" the "right-to-woTk" .amendment proposed by the Socialist party would probably admit to state employment United States citizens from other states. C. W. Barzee, one of the proponents of the measure, said ne thought this assumption too sweep ing. Judge Stevenson also discussed the measure which will bar the era- , ployer, thus apparently making it pos sible for a person to be employed more tnan eight hours by working for dir ferent employers. Judge Takes Part. V. R. Manning suggested that using the word "citizen " instead of -regis tered voter" in the "right to work' . amendment proposed by the Socialist party might admit United States clt leans from other states to employment in the state public works' department proposed by the measure. C. W. Bar see, one of the proponents of the measure asserted that such a conolu . sion seemed yt him too sweeping. Judge John II. Stevenson discussed the measure that If passed will ex clude from voting persons who have declared Intention of becoming citl sens and who have been in the United States a year and Oregon six months. He said that the measure creating the office of lieutenant governor would automatically elevate Dan J. Malarkey, president of the state senate, to the office until 1918, because the measure provides that the president of the state senate shall ' serve as lieutenant gov ernor until one can be elected in 1918. Capital Punishment. Mrs. A. W. Nicholson discussed the measure proposing the abolition of capital Dunlshment In Or p iron, anil Charles D. Mahaffie the measures pro- I posing consolidation of city and county and the bonding of the state for water power and land clearing. Arthur M. Churchill called attention to. the fact that the peohibitlon amend ment. If passed, will give liquor deal ers .ytUH January 1, 1916, to get ready for ltss.operatlon, and answered the ob jection that h.ome dealers would be -put out of business while outside com panies would still be permitted to ship liquor in, by saying that the Webb bill passed by congress prohibits the ship ping of liquor into a dry state for other than purposes allowed by the state law, which in Oregon would be for sacramental, medicinal and me chanical purposes. Arthur C. Newill declared that If the dentistry bill should result in legisla tion that would make a dental truat Impossible, "Painless Parker" would have rendered Oregon a service. Th j oiu says tnat any person holding a diploma from a reputable dental school giving 12 months' work in 24, shall be admitted to practice in Oregon, and that no reputable dental schools have so short a course. Dentist Gives View. -Dr. Balrd, a dentist here, said that previous to 1892 reputable dental sohools did hv as short a course. but In the meantime the men who . graduated previous to 1892 have gotten) experience, 1 W. T. Fletcher aald that reopening I the eastern and southern Oregon Nor- j mal schools in the terms of two mea-1 urea proposed, will cause a tax of but j five cents on each $1000 assessed valu-i atlon, but added that many people j think the one formal school at Hon mouth should be enough to meet the ! state's needs. j A. Wood explained the sur-tax I amendment, which proposes an extra j tax of Vi to 3 per cent on land as-; sessed at more than 125,000., and Miss Emma Wold explained the woman's sight hour law. W. F. Ogburn served as chairman of the day. ' - t K r 'iff A Photograph by International News Service. MIbs Christobel Pankhurst, militant suffragette, who recently arrived In the United States.

Hessian Would Hecovei $1100 Damages, Alleging Injured Business Reputation, Charging that J. S. Clark, a stand holder at. the public market, damaged his business-reputation by displaying at his stand inferior groceries pla carded as having been purchased at his store, " W. A-; Hessian, 1193 Haw thorne avenue, yesterday filed suit in the circuit court against Clark, asking- 11100 damages. Hessian, who recently made charges through the press that certain public market jBtandholders were charging prices in excess of prices prevailing at the retail store, states that a clip ping of his letter in The Journal was posted up with the placards and be neath It was a receipted bill appar ently signed by Hessian. He admits that he sold goods as listed on the bill, but denies that the goods dis played as coming from his store were purchased from him. Names of candidates appearing on the ballot In the coming state election will not be rotated. Although there has been soma pro test on the part of candidates, tha election laws of Oregon do not require, that in a general election, tha names of candidates for office be rotated on the ballots. The term rotation means tha altern ate switching of the position of names of candidates on the ballots that in every precinct each candidate baa his name first la tha list under tha office for which he is running, an equal num ber of times as compared with tha others. Section S3M of Lord's Oregon Laws provides that the names of candidates for each office, In a general election, shall ba arranged under tha title of the office in alphabetical order, ac cording to surnames- There is one ex ception, but the exception does not provide rotation. This is where candidates for presi dential and vice presidential electors, and for the office of state senator and state representative are on tha ballot. In that instance tba names are ar ranged alphabetically, but according to party classification. Thus, on tho bat lots to be voted November 8, all the candidates for representative from Multnomah county are classified al-. phabetically, but all candidates of tha same party are together. On tha gen eral election ballot tho 12 Republicans are together and the six Democrats, the nine progressives, the eight So cialists and the seven Prohibitionists are likewise. This is not rotation. however. 8The rotation method applies only to primary elections and only where there are more than five candidates for the same office. The method is pro vided for in division 1 of section S371, Lord's Oregon Laws. Names of candi dates where there were more than five in the list were rotated in the pri mary election of May 15.

The beautiful pianos referred to in this advertisement are nearly all the latest style, brand new and not even shop worn. A few that are used are in tha very best and guaranteed condition. CAUTIOR, We shall sen every Instrument in this great stock before this, Port--land's greatest piano sale, closes, but tha and will no doubt come very soon, for tha crowds of enthusiastic piano buyers are selecting many pianos daily. The manufacturers make tne prices and certain it is, when the man who makes tha instrument agrees to sell a certain number of pianos, thero is not a firm, no matter what the cir cumstances might be, that can dupli cate tba low prices. The manufacturers' agreement with the Eilers Music House is that every time the manufacturers' representa tives sell two pianos, the Eilers Music House agrees to buy three more of their surplus pianos which have accu mulated on account of the recent stagnation. The wheels of a great factory cannot be stopped on a mo ment's notice. Therefore, tho Eilers Music House buyer made an agree ment to take the surplus stock from seven of the world's largest and best known makers of high-grade pianos and the manufacturers' representa tives, Ellsworth, Barnes & Davey, are now in chargre of the selling cam paign of the big piano house. Thus the nation's largest institu tion is now selling the most costly of all makes at factory prices and some for even less, and included is also the residue of the costly planus from the Soule Bros.' Failure Sale, hence this double event, making- pos sible the furnishing of more Intrinsic genuine piano worth for the money than ever heretofore, and than ever will be possible again. But this sale cannot last long. There are no dupli cates. Immediate action Is essential. Coma at once. All Questions of Doubt Regarding the Service That Any of These Pianos May Olve Has Bean Eliminated. When the Soule Bros.' Failure Sale was In full force, many people would not buy, for they realized there would be no one to look to if tha piano was not just as it was represented. There is now no cause for any thoughts of this kind, for Eilers Music House is a money-back institution. It guaran ties quality and guarantees positive satisfaction, or money back, a liberal exchange agreement is issued where by if at any time within two years if for any reason tha piano purchased Is not in every way satisfactory, it can be exchanged at full price paid for any other new piano in our stock f nearly all of the world's best-known and highest-grade Pianos, Player Pi anos and Baby Grand Piano's.

Wa want to call particular atten tion to a lot of the very finest Kim ball pianos ever shown In this city. No finer Klmballs have ever been here. Thousands of Klmballs have been sold by us in the past. We are now offering these splendid Kimball Sianos for sals at less than actual ealer's billing, for the reason that these Instruments have been taken back by us from several dealers for whose trade they were found to be too expensive and we have already received a portion of our cost from these dealers. It would jeopardize the manufac turer's Interests elsewhere were we to openly publish the sale prices jf these Klmballs. But wa wish to state frankly that we are selling these Klmballs for less and on easier terms of payment than we have ever offered Kimball pianos since we corti menced business, here. Exclusive Types Also Included. The now famous Duotonal, double sound board Piano and also the beau tiful player Piano de Luxe, the most valuable of all player pianos, because it possesses five distinct points of superiority over tha next best makes, are also included tn this price sacrifice. rRzcxs.
