flatten; the bill championed by Sena
tor Garland to give county courts
authority to construct bridges by day
labor In the event "a satisfactory bid
.could, not be Obtained from contract

course by Garland's consent to re
1 erring .the billionee more to the com
mittee on roads, with Rpecifio Instruc
tions for the Insertion of an amend
ment proposed by Senator Day.
-When the bill first came up. Beveral
days ago. It mtet with opposition, and
to save it Senator Garland consented
to having it referred to the committee.
Thcn tame a substitute bill, providing
that county courts must advertise "for
bids for bridge construction, but in the
event the bids are considered too high
the court may reject them and employ
a superintendent and build the bridge
itself. The substitute provides that
when the bridge is completed the. court
must publish a statement of the cost
of the bridge and a statement of the
lowest bid received.
Bay Xads.the Pight.
Senator Day led the fight against tha
bill, and finally said" he would accept
-the bill if au amendment was made to
require the county court to prepare aa
estimate of the cost of the bridge, and
if any of the bids come1 within this eft
timate, then the bid must bo accepted.

bill to allow the use of salmon and

tated the vote on the bill, causing many
senators to pop up and change their
votes.
"The chief of staff is still cutting
bait." said Galajid. ' lie is cutting bait

' how they shall vote on this compensa

5alem. Or., Keb. 3. Constitutional
enactments looking to the exclusion of
aliens from the the rights of holding
property wera summarily sat upon in
the house this morning when Repre
sentative Schuebel's two Joint resolu
tions placing tho subject upon the bal
lot were voted down. Only six mem
bers voted in favor of the measures,
the opinion being expressed that this
1m a most unproplt.ous time for the
launching of any radical principles af
fecting foreigners.
Numerous references to the Japanese
troubles In California were made dur
ing the debate, though Schuebel denied
vigorously that any race, or people is
discriminated against.
Llttlefietd challenged the proposal as
an infraction of treaty rights between
the United States and other lands, and
Eaton Interposed two objectless, one
6eing the far-reaching effect of such
a measure at a time when world af
fairs are sadly embroiled, and the other
that the legislature should not over
load the initiative jballot.
Schuebel had insisted that the legis
lature Is not committing itself to the
policy of excluding aliens, but Forbes
retorted that such an interpretation
would be put on the resolution by every
foreign nation affected, and Olson
echoed the same idea, citing the close
watch that consuls .aid diplomats pay
to legislative proceedings.

Horne renewed the fight he has been
making on the floor for legislation to
protect labor. The minority report
recommended amendments making the
bill more rigid than its original draft.
On the viva voce vote it appeared
that the question of substituting the
majority report for the minority re
port had failed, until Representative

- would soon mark the sues ot ihe old stage stations
Oswald West. and the crossroad postoffices.
The method of reclaiming these lands which prevailed in other, western
states, and which was to be followed . by-Oregon, was for the state to enter
into contracts with irrigation companies. An estimate was made as to the
probable cost -of the system, -and a reasonable amount for profit added. A
company was given a lien upon the land for this amount not to become
binding, however, until water had been furnished and the lands fully re
claimed. The company was to receive its money through the sale of water
rights to settlers.
i OBLIGATIONS ASSUMED BY THE STATE.
In taking this step, the state put ifs stamp of approval upon this system
and method of reclaiming our arid lands. It held out to the world that .the
work would be under state supervision and that settlers would always be
under its protecting wing. The state, therefore, assumed an obligation
to see J
First That contracts were made 01
feasible projects.
Second That contracts were entered into onIy with concerns financially
able to carry the work to completionand fully reclaim the lands.
Thirti ;That all construction work was based upon carefully drawn plans
and specifications.
Fourth That the laws,'of the state and the acts o its officials would
throw every protection around the settler.

When the Oregon legislature in 1901 accepted the
said offer of the government and launched our ship
of state upon .the legislative waters, it did so gladly,
of its own free will and with its "eyes open. This ac
tion of the legislature met with general approval
throughout the state. The press and the people
looked upon it as the opening of an era of great de
velopment. Thousands of acres of desert waste were
to be turned into productive fields, settlers would
come, rjulroads would follow, and cities and towns

EXTRADITION
He Claims His Offense Is Po
. litical and Has Right to
-Seek Refuge In U. S. .
(l oilfrl- I'ross Leased Wire.)
Washington, Feb. 3. State depart
ment officials today were prepared to
revive from British Ambassador
Spring-Rice a request for extradition
of the alleged German dynamiter who
wrecked the Vanceboro. Maine, bridge
into Canada. Involved in such a re
quest was a delicate international prob
lem. Tlie alleged dynamiter. Werner
Viii Home, himself claims immunity.
Further, lie maintains that as a Cler
jnan lie committed merely a political
crime, for which he cannot be extra-
; Uited.
I Jle maintains that ha has the right
to seek refuge in a neutral country, and
that he cannot be delivered to a bellig
erent by this nation.
Ambassador Spring-Rice expected
formally to present his request during
the day. Until It Is received and
studied along with international pre
cedents, however, department heads
indicated they intended to make no of
ficial comment.
From the state department's stand
point, the extradition proposition
hinged largely on the interpretation
of the word "political" in the extradi
tion treaty of 1S89, which says: "A
fugitive' criminal shall not be sur
rendered if the offense in respect of
which his surrender is demanded be
of a political character."
It was also pointed out by Interna
tional law experts that. In case tha
Ottawa government succeeds in prov
lug that Van Horne committed an or
dinary crime and is subject to extra
dition, the German can hardly be dealt
with in Canada as a spy, as on that
basis, he would be a "political" of

of international complications is

great caution. 1
Search is still being continued by
the Canadian authorities for the' man
whom Van Horne claims was bis ac
complice. The German asserts that
the man was an Irishman, and that he
met him on the bridge by appointment.
He stated that his accomplice was un
known to him, and that identification
was made by means of a password.

weathir, Van Horne declared, prevented-

Corvallis, Or, Feb. 3. Ten men ap
pointed to aid the farmers of 10 Ore
gon .counties In better practical meth
ods are holding their first general con
ference session here in connection
with farmers' week.
They are seriously trying to find a
suitable name for their occupation.
Agriculturist? Expert? Adviser?
Agent? Which shall it be? Although
they' are generally called county agri
culturists, they don't like the name, be
cause of the definition that an agri
culturist is 'a man who spends In the
country the money he makes in town."
The word "expert" Indicates self
assumed superiority, for which the
farmers will not stand. It is repug
nant 'to human nature to accept advice,
so "adviser" is eliminated, and "agent"
hasn't a real chance because of the
frequent signs, "Agents not wanted
here." The answer and the name can
not be expected at this point, because
neither have been given. But despite
the handicap, the 10 county farm prob
lem men are doing good work along
new lines in Oregon.
All Are Busy.
Their appointment only became pos
sible through the law passed by the
1913 legislature, but one of them in
