D. Thomas, emnlove of the state labor bureau, in which Thomas seeks to have the court Instruct Rufus C. Holman. state treasurer, either to pay his state warrant in cash or to stamp It not paid for want of funds, and thus to make it interest bearing at 5 per cent annually. The court accepted Jurisdic tion, after listening to arguments by Fred Williams, Thomas' at torney, why the matter was one for original jurisdiction by the high tribunal. Hearing of the case on Its merits will be at 10 a.m. next Monday. Defendant in the case, the state treasurer, will be represent ed by the attorney-general's of fice. Constitutionality of X-.-w Law at Issue Involved in the case will be the constitutionality of a recent leg islative enactment which provides that the state treasurer shall en dorse warrants not-paid and Inter est-bearing when the state board of control shall so order. Mr. Holman is said to have said such an act was unconstitutional since it Infringed on his powers as treasurer. Should the court hold treasurer, auoum me cuun uuiu against the state treasurer, it will doubtless issue a writ of manda- mus on Fred Paulus, deputy and in charge during Holman's ab sence, ordering him to pay or to endorse warrants as presented.

Kowits was asked to draw up suitable ordinances. A bill for submitting the amendment question to the peopto will be presented at the next council meeting. April 3. if the city attorney can find time to draw it up, and it will be certain of passage eventually. Chairman' F. E. Need ham of the police, traf fic and license committee of the council stated last nlscht. He aaid at least 12 of the 14 aldermen would vote for the bill. No effort will be made to rush, this measure through, it Is ex-' " pected, since the council has until June 21 to call a special eity elec tion on July 21, date of the stato special ballot. Licensing Ordinance To be Lively Issue Another ordinance, almost cer tain to stir up a hornet's neat, will permit any attempt to Heeaao the sale of "beverages eontainiac la excess of one-half of one per cent but not exceeding SJ per -cent ot alcohol". It is a legal question whether or not the city can collect a license from beer venders under such an ordinance. But under the charter prohibitjeai amendment, the council eaanot legalize the sale of "beer", as such. The council could permit taa sale of beer, here by repealing ta) enforcement ordiance, as was : done for the state at the last elec tion, but practically unanimously, the aldermen are against such a move. Wet Sentiment In City is Observed A distinct increase fn "wet" sentiment Is noticeable in the city between December 1, 1913, when the city prohibition amendment was voted In by seven of the then existing 10 precincts, and lat No vember, when the state dry lawa were voted out by 14 of the pres ent 24 precincts. The vote in 1913 was 2689 to 1737 on the dry side, while last November it was 4885 to 4770 on the opposite side. A number of the aldermen, among them. Chairman Needham. are fearful that a dangerous sit uation will arise after April . with local beer-consumers driving outside the city to obtain the bev erage. After Salem went dry but before the state prohibition amendment went Into effect, Jan uary i, 1916, saloons flourished In nearby towns, notably at Inde pendence and Dallas. There were none In West Salem. Dallas waa the last nearby town to close its saloons. SILVERTON.
