It was exactly 3:15 o'clock or

the lower hu- adopted the kame re

Speaker Seymour Jone3 declared
that the special tension of the Oregon
legislature had adjourned sine, die.
The last hours' of the session ex
traordinary, were marked with fisht
and friToUty. In the senate, after
the hour of midnight, there were
long recesses whi!e a clear desk
awaited for more business from the
house. At' these ooriods, while the
friendly film of tobacco wreathed
about the lamps and over the desks,
mellowing the tempers that aweek
of nervous n&frin had kept at the
point of combustion, the minutes
were whiled away with song, recita
tions and i oratory. Senator Louis
lachmund volunteered with "Beauti

Strange friendships vreie made.
Walter Tierce and l C. Chapman
were observed in tete-a-tete In a re
mole corner of the benate chamber.
They were caught by the sharp eye
of Louis Lachmund.
'Mr. President." shouted Lach
mund. "we have the unusual specta
cle of Senator Pierce and Mr. Chap
man conversing with each other. I
demand to know what it is all
bout."
"Mr. President.' 'replied Pierce, "I
was just telling Mr. Chapman mat
he Is very much of an enigma to me.
We j all know how he defends the
trusts and i combines so often in his
wiltings, but sometimes he says
something that is so good I can't
help but commend him for It. Just
now he has remarked to me that he
thinks the straight ticket bill Is
wrong and that he will sign a peti
tion to have it referred to the people."
Amendment Delay Bill."
Adjournment was delayed by con
sideration of house bill No. 40. in
troduced by Stewart, and providing
for a special election May 21. When
the bill reached the senate long aft
er midnight it was found that the
measure would have to be amended
to include one of the measures that
Inadvertently was left off the ballot
at the special election last year, and
Senator Moser succeeded in having
the bill amended in the upper bouse
to include in addition to the enum
erated measures referred by the leg
islature "any other bills on which
the referendum' might be invoked."
This move by. Moser was a coup to
reinforce the safety oL his straight
party bill which had passed both
houses, and he explained that should
the referendum-be invoked on that
measure' It could, under his pro
posed amendment, lo bill No. 40, be
voted on at the special election, and
if adopted by the people be effective
immediately, and the straight party
ballot be used in the November elec
tion. Otherwise- ,the bill icould not
be voted on until November and
there would be no opportunity to use
the new form of ballot for two years.
The move caused Senator Pierce,
Democratic iron horse, to assail Moser.-
since the bill Is generally inter
preted as being in the interests of the
Republican party.
Pierre Threaten Mower.
"That measure will get you. Gus."
he thundered at Moser. "If ever
you are a candidate again I will fol
low you all over the state and I will
Spend a lot of niobey telling the peo
ple about tbla occurrence in the last
hour of this. legislature which has
been called to consider - emergency
measures."
However, the house refused to
concur in the amendment. Upon re
t-ortlng back to the senate a con
ference committee was named. Con
ference with Sam A. Kozer, deputy
secretary of state, showed that1 there
was not sufficient time to refer any
measures by petition for vote at the
special election, and the -bill as fin
ally passed does not include the
Moser amendment.
Special Klci'tion MeawurvM.
The special election as passed
enumerates the following measures
to be voted on at the special election:
II. J. it. o. 7, ny Burdick, re
lating to the debts and liabilities of
counties.
House joint resolution No. 11. by
the committee on resolutions, pro
viding that the bonded indebtedness
of the state may be 4 per cent of
its assessed valuation instead of
per cent as at present.
House joint resolution No. S. by
the committee on Judiciary, to re
store the death penalty.
S. D. No. 40. by Pierce and I. S.
Smith, providing a tax of four
tenths of a mill- on all the taxable
property of the state to create a fund
to be used under the educational aid
for soldier, sailors and marines.
H. H. No. 34. by Mis. Thompson,
providing for a tax levy of two mills
to create a fund for the use of pub
lic and elementary schools.
H'.B. 77. by Horne, providing a

the construction of an Institution to

S. J. it. No. 10. by Moser and

ship in event of the death, resigna
tion, removal or inability to serve of
the (.ovornor. and that the speaker
A the he use shall be next In line of
succession after the president of the
stnate.
S. J. n. No. 17. remaining over
from the session of 1919.
Thomas Flays Selon.
Senator Thomas of Jackson coun
ty waged his fight on the fish and
game issue to the last ditch. When
house bill No. 78, introduced by the
committee on game, and designed to
icgalize the payment of claims on
nate game farms, applying particu
larly to the newly purchased farm at
Lugene, the legality of which is now
In court. Thomas moved for indefi
nite postponement. In sarcastic
language he abraded the legislature
for some of the questionable pro
ceedings ot the week.
"This is a special session." said
Thomas. "That It is special, I sup
post, means that we were calleu to
do something out of the ordinary.
Aud we certainly have done that
which is foolish and absurd. We have
found that the legislature it not con
fined to any rules. We are not con
fined to the legislative field, but can
go out into any field. There Is no
field that we have not explored. We
have done our legislative work. But
not satisfied with that, we hare gone
into the executive department and
rhorn the governor of hia authority
by electing a fish and game com
mission. Now, in the bill before us.
we propose to go into the Judicial
field and settle a question that is al-tt-ady
in the courts for settlement.
I know I am in the minority, but
this legislature Is running true to
form, and I don't want you to go
home and have to say you did not
know what you were voting on."

Representative Bean of the houte
was in the senate chamber, and Sen
ator Norblad attempted to have the
courtesy of the floor extended to him
so that he might explain the bill
from the point of view of its pro
ponents. . Unanimous consent was
necessary, and 'Thomas blocked the
raovt by objecting. Thomas' motion
for Indefinite postponment was voted
down. In the vote on the bill only

Handler attempted to rescue the
combine from a pummeling In the
senate by pointing to the futility of
action because of a bouse rule
against consideration of any bill that
has been indetiuitely postponed.
Moser parried the move. Banks tried
to have the bill indefinitely post
poned, but Moser made him sit down
Moser quoted from the opinion .of
Attorney General Brown who said
that the best way to settle the-ques
tion of validity of the patents is In
an potion in court, to be fought if
necessary o the court of last resort.
Think Warren Fear Court.
"I venture to say," said Moser,
"that if this bill were passed no ac
tion would ever be brought by the
Warren Construction company. If
they have a valid patent, let's pay
them what belongs to them. It they
have not a valid patent let's not pay
them a dollar in rolayties."
Banks again moved indefinite
postponement which was defeated by
u vote of 18 to 11.
Hurley told of his great friend
ship for A. J. Hill and Jerry Hoyt.
oi the waren Constuction company,
"Ii Senator Hurley knew what I
know about Jerry Hoyt he would not
say he was his friend." said Senator
Lachmund. "I am glad to say that
I am not a friend ot Mr. Hoyt. His
conduct has been most reprehensi
ble."
Senator Handley had a sudden
awakening to the fact that the spe
cial session had been called to con
sider "emergency legislation." and
said he did'nt think the anti-royalty
hill was in that class. When his
speaking time under the rules had
expired and President Vinton rapped
tor him to sit down, Handley, under
the camouflage of eulogizing a de
ceased member of the senate, took
up twice tne time, at the end re
verting to a defense of the paving
trust. Put to a vote the bill carried
17 to 10, two not voting.
The vote was as follows:
For Eberhard. Eddy. Farrell.
Howell. Lachmund, LaFollett. Moser.
Nickelsen. Patterson. Porter. Rltner.

The hardest fight of the late aft
ernoon session was over house bill
43, introduced by the . roads and
highways committee, calling for the
repeal of the gravity gasoline test
and substitution ot the boiling test,
with an appropriation of fluuO for
the installation of necessaty equip
ment, me dmi was dereated.
Patterson. Jones, Strayer, Banks
snd lachmund vigorously attacked
the bill. Jones terming It the "no
torious distillate bill." Banks de
clared that the Standard OILcomnanv
admits that, gasoline purchased un-
der the bill would carbonize more
quickly than that being used In Ore
gon under the gravity test law. He
urged deferring action until the reg
ular session next year.
Senator Wood joined Orton In de
fending the bill for repeal. There
was a sensational clash between
Strayer and Handley. Strayer de
clared that motorists ot Idaho were
driving 30 and 100 miles to get Ore
con gasoline.
Hanging Bill Pa,
Three bills necessary for enact
ment to make the capital punish
ment amendment effective If It Is

KEEP URIC ACID'
OUT OF JOINTS
TrlU Ilhetunatlra Huf ferers to Eat
Lena Meat and Take
Salts
Rheumatism is essier to avoid
than to cure, states a well-known au
thority. -We are advised to dress
warmly; keep tbe feet try; avoid ex
posure; eat less meat, but drink plen
ty of good water.
Rheumatism Is a direct result of
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce arte acid which Is
absorbed Into the blood! It is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast It oni
in the urine; tbe pores or the tain
are also a means of freeing the blood
of this impurity. In damp and chil
ly cold weather tbe skin pores are
closed thus forcing the kidneys to
do double work, they become weak
and sluggish and fail to eliminate
the uric acid which keeps accumulat
ing and circulating through the sys
tem, eventually settling In the joints
and muscles causing stiffness, sore
ness and pain .called rheumatism.
Ai the first twinge or rheumtism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces or Jad Salts; put a table
spoonful in glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morning
for a week. This is said to eliminate
uric acid by stimulating the kidneys
to normal action, thus ridding the
blood of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grape
and lemon juice, combined with llth
ia and is used with excellent results
by thousands of folks who are sub
ject to rheumatism. Here you have
a pleasant effervescent litbia-water
drink which helps overcome uric
arid and fa benericlal to your kid
neys as well.
