Governor 'Hart Still Refuses .to
Call Legislature Ratify Na-
; tional .Woman's Suffrage Act
" Olympia, Deo. SO. There will be
AO special session of the, legislature
t ratify the national woman suf
(rag act, unless Governor Louis F.
Hart chances hi mind from the
present view, despite the fact that
State Chairman Sam Walker of the
.Republican party, acting upon the
"request of - National Chairman Will
Hays, called together the announced
: and likely-to-be , announced, candi
dates for governor at a meeting in
Seattle and pleaded with them to
forget state politics until after the
state convention; and In the mean
time, to Aid in the clean-up of na
tional questions.- :' ' : '
- Governor Hart has not been Inclined
to call the tension, and is known to have
nof been Influenced by the meeting of
yesterday, but certain Seattle politicians,
anxious for' a chance to break Into the
. .limlfght because of aspirations upon the
office of governor and attorney general,
- have been active in support of the spe
cial session. .The Fierce county delega-
tion are strongly opposed to any ses
sion before the regular one, feeling that
the session would probably hang on for
some weeks, and be more of a - detrM
ssent than a benefit.
Press dispatches carry the story . that
the Seattle meeting waa for the purpose
of deciding about ratifying woman suf
frage." but politicians on' the inside,' yet
" who were not Invited to the meeting, do
t not express like views.- They say that
' the state organization has at last awak
ened to the fact that 17,600 cttlsens of
the state have aliened the rolls of the
: Ken-Partisan .league and' also: call-' at
tention to t:. fict tl.at ii rr cent cf
the votes catt at the recent e 6-hovI
election, where the issue was on Amer
icanism, were marked for the candidates
of the Triple-Alliance, for men whose
Americanism the combined press of Se
attle attacked There are now five can
didates . avowed and , proposed ' for the
fight for governor on the Ee publican
ticket: Governor Zouls F. Hart, George
P, Lamping of Seattle;, Edwin T. Coman
of Spokane, Upland 1L Hartley of Ever
ett and Clark V. Savldge of Olympia. In
the fight at the primaries last election
Henry McBrlde was -elected to head the
He publican ticket on a vote of 45,000 out
of a total of 198,000 cast. Governor Ern
est Lister was elected and the Republl
can stats committee knew that there
were too many candidates in the . field.
Add the wives to the 17.000 of the Non
partisans and you have 34,000; add the
Triple-Alliance. In Seattle alone, and you
have 82,000, and add the Independent
vote of the state, which for Lister was
35,000 add all these and the result will
probably give the Republican committee
more to , worry about than the woman
suffrage ratification., .. - -

Already Dozen Measures Have
Appeared and Many Others Are
..in Process "of Being Formed.
Eabbi Discovers Old :
Friend at Centralia;
; Many-Years Apart
' Centralis, Wash., Dec. 20. The visit
to Centralia of . Rabbi R, Goldenstein'
of Tacoma, speaking in behalf of the
Jewish relief fund drive, brought to
gether, two old friends, who for many
years had lost track of each other.'
When Rabbi Goldenstein, barely-more
than a youth, landed .in this country
about 14 years ago the first person to
lend M-tf a helping hand was Jacob
Shanedllngr, then living In Portland.
When the rabbi arrived in Centralia the
first place he, entered was Shanedling8
store.. Neither friend knew, up to that
momenta that the other, was ' here.
The ' Woman's Civic ; club -of Cen
.trails reelected Mrs. F. G. Gilbert prest-
flent. 'Other oracers chosen .are Mrs.
W, F. Kelllng, first vice president:
Mrs. John Camp, second vies president J
Mrs. V. 3. Bickford, treasurer; Mrs. M.
A. Oarlock, recording secretary,' and
Mrs. J, Tate Berry, financial secretary.

" Salem; Dec 20. Only, a prompt
application of- rule, limiting the
introduction of bills, during the spe
cial session cf the legislature, called
to convene here in January, will pre
vent a flood of legislation that will
keep the colons grinding for the full
2 0 days permitted by the state con
stitution. ' .
This prediction, which ie prevalent in
state house circles, is based upon the
rapidity with, which pet measures have
been cropping out in all corners since
Governor Olcott first announced his in
tention of convening the soloni in ex
traordinary session.
MANY BEING INCUBATED ,
Aside - from the five problems which
Governor Olcott puts up to the legisla
tors jor solution 4n his formal call, no
less than a dozen others . have made
their appearance on the political hori
zon during the past two weeks and iti
is generally believed here that many
others, , which haVe not yet opened their
eyes to the light of day, are being In
cubated in the minds of the lawmakers
or their friends, who might be possessed
of a hobby upon which the welfare of
the state is believed to depend. - -
A new bill regarded as certain to
make a bid for recognition at the Jan
uary session is one changing the -test
requirement on gasoline sold within the
state. The recent action of the oil com
panies In boosting the price of this com
modity a cent and a half per gallon be
cause of the present, requirement of a
69 degree specific gravity test.! is re
garded as practically Insuring an- at

dASOUUTB TEST VT -. -
.The novelty of being' the only state
In the union with such a test is not re
garded -as being worth the more than
1800,000 which this requirement win cost
automobile owners and other consumers
of gasooline during the next year in the
added cost represented by the extra one
and one half cents per. gallon. While
no measure providing: relief, from this
financial burden has as yet been brought
into the limelight, one is confidently x
oected.
The : nature of such a measure is as
yet only a matter of conjecture, but It
is regarded as practically certain mat
It will be based noon the boiling point
of the gasoline upon which the federal
goverament'sow. bases its tests, rather
than on the- specifica gravity test, as
required by the Oregon law.

the most practical of which Is regarded
as that of licensing drivers as well as
the machines, which they drive and re
quiring a test to prove- the ability and
competence of the -driver. ,
A check-valve upon crime within the
state, especially hold-ups, is suggested
by the Chamber of Commerce of Veneta,

death penalty or at least a more severe
penalty than is ? provided; by existing

While Bean favors proposed legisla
