IT looks like winter has set in.
More overcoats were in evi
dence around the capitol yes
terday than anytime this season.
Well, It makes one realize more
than ever that Christmas is Just
around the corner, and for those
at the capitol, that Christmas
means another legislature imme
diately afterwards.
And sickness ha al.so made
ita mark. Quite a number of
employes as well as several
state officials, are absent be
cause of colds. After three
weeks of serious illness, Dr. E.
E. Lindsay was able to Ie at his
office for short intervals, while
E. E. Hobbs, state printer, wu
reported on the sick list.
Charles Pray haa Jim Stewart
backed oft the map in ketch
traits. Charlie was invited to
lunch yesterday, and in order to
show his appreciation he thought
he better bring something. So af
ter consideration he decided to
bring all his captains and office
force to lunch. Gosh, what a
blow.
Legislative job seekers ap
pear at the capitol every day
and it looks now as though
there will be 20 applicants for
every job, mostly young worn-
vn. It will be a problem for the
legislators and those who have
probably something to cay about
one or two jobs. Unfortunately
all of them can't be put to
work.
Ben Doris, active Legionnaire
and one of Eugene's representa
tives at the Nat Growers meetings
held here the past few days, was
at the capitol yesterday. He has
attended several legislative ses
sions as a lobbyist for the Legion
and for other interests. Mrs. Doris
also worked during the sessions
here.
Tax conference comtinne al
most hourly at the state capitol
and the governor today is ex
pected to continue his consider
ation here on the situation. As
yet no word as to a special ses
sion but predictions have been
Issued quite freely that legisla
tors may as well plan to be on
hand Tuesday morning, Janu
ary 8. The regular session starts
January 0.
Someone suggested that if homo
brew could be taxed the Oregon
situation would bo solved. The tax
commission's only problem then
would be to find oat who to tax
and how much. The one suggest
ing it estimated an average of flv
gallons of beer a month for each
family. Bat who knows, and how
would they find oat?
On the other hand it looks
like the women will have to
save the nation. Slender women
were issued a challenge In news
dispatches yesterday. An east
ern authoress stated that if ev
ery woman would increase her
weight 10 pounds In six months,
the farm problem would be
solved. And here they have al
ways been figuring out how
they could lose 10 pounds more
in six months.
And to add to the sick list, Brig,
adler General Thomas E. RIlea is
ill at home with the influensa.
Tom took sick Just after he bad
been nurse to other members of
his family.
