- - Passed Amid Levity as
v Repeal Issue Waits
- Smiles and frowns, with occa
i .atonal laughs, marked - the attl
- tade of senators on bills on very
bear? calendar Saturday. Tbe
smiles were for tbe McKay Wil
lamette ralley flood control law,
for a conspiracy statute In lien
or we present criminal synaicai
,lsm law, for aid to the Doera
'becher hospital, for prohibition
of operation of watering and
j 'bookmaklng establishments.
The frowns ' were for longer
' -and hearier trucks, for a difler
1 -ent law to punish kidnaping, and
for a bill to exempt certain farm
prodsos in warehouses from taxa
tion, all of which were Indefinite
ly postponed.
f . The laughs were chiefly rer
-the "grmry bill,- S. 3. 105. to
ilncrease the state take on parl
Mnutael betting and divide tbe
'proceeds orer community festi
vals about the state, which was
adopted. At -4 :20 the senate ad-
-Joarned until 10 a. m. Monday,
without . touching the house bills
.on the calendar. Important among
-the latter was IL B. 159, the Mar-
tin bill outlawing slot machines
and plnball games.
Pass "GrtTy" Bill
The gambling topic took up a
lot of time in the afternoon' ses-
sion. S. B.. 105 was pa seed, 18.
for to 10 against, 2 absent, but
not. until it had been raked with
raillery from Duncan and Carney,
-the-former jabbing at it because
; of what it contained, and the lat
j ter pointing out communities
which had been omitted.
The bill Increases the state take
f on . pari-mutuel betting from 2 M
r to 5 per cent, then adds a great
t many beneficiaries to the distri-
button of benefits: the .Portland
., rose festlTal, Redmond potato
show; Astoria regatta, Iadepend
1 enee hop festival. Silets rodeo,
I Lebanon strawberry festival, Ore
, gon City territorial days, Molalla
? buckeroo, and Canyon City days
of '2. Present beneficiaries,
? which are not disturbed, are the
L state fair. Pacific International
I stock show, Pendleton roundup,
i Oakland turkey show. Last year
the sUte share was $100,000. :
The debate orer S. B. 105 pro-
jected the: question of pari-mn-
tuels. & B. 1(1, to repeal the law
j legalising them la set on the sen
i ate calendar for 10:30 a. m. Tnes-
day. After the senate defeat of
the adverse committee report Fri
'i day, supporters of dog racing and
I of pari-mutuel betting hurried to
; Salem to defeat the Staples bill.
, Governor Martin issued a state
: ment that if pari-mutuels were
killed lie would rete any appro-
priations to fairs, if the effort
- should, be made to replace from
' the- treasury the funds thus lost.
Bookmakers Hit
' No friends bad the bookie es
tablishments nd wagering Joints
which operate in Portland palcing
bets on distant races; and S. B.
26S was nassed with only one or
two' rotes in opposition. .
The Burke bill to. permit longer
'trucks to operate on the state
highways received the lethal sleep
of indefinite postponement when
the senate approred the adverse
report of the committee on high
ways. Burk and Ross supported
the Mil but Best of the highway
committee. SUples. and Carney
opposed It-chiefly on the grounds
that the highways and bridges
-snd tunnels were not built tone-

... Friends of producer cooperat
ives succeasf ally resisted an at
tempt by Carney to engraft legal
isation ot consumer cooperatives
on the present law. McCornack
snd Barks Insisted that Oregon
had a model producer coopers tire
law now and they objected to any
alteration.
Another bill by Carney, to ex
empt from taxation certain farm
products In warehouses, was
killed.

Bill to Assist .
County Passed
Courthouse Measure Gets
; No Opposition; Labor
Forces Rebuffed .
Before action "of the "pension
bloc" brought' the first an : day
Saturday session io a. close -in,
near riot yesterday afternoon
the houso had approved 14 mea
sures. There were 18 new mea
sures introduced of which nine
were appropriation bills from the
ways and means committee.
1 Passed without debate was
biQ by Representative Hosch and
others, to simplify procedure in
tne construction ot courthouses.
Hosch explained that the bill was
particularly designed to aid De
schutes county but that it would
benefit other counties which de-
aired to build courthouses.
The act . which provided that a
loser in a gambling gam would
be. entitled to recover double his
losses from the 'Operator of the
game waa amended to provide
that the loser could only recover
one-third of the double damages
and that the balance should go
to the common school fund.
The old . law was described as
"legalized blackmail" by propo
nents of the bill, who declared
that it had been operated as a
racket by small time gamblers.
. Wiring Code Backed
' The electrical coda which met
defeat last Week," cam back in
amended form., as a substitute
bilL Although opponents . declar
ed the ) measure was still too
broad and gave the - electrical
board too much power, it passed
easily.
By a 44 to 14 vote the nouse
gave approyal, without debate, to
Representative Vernon Bull's
measure to make the lethal gas
the manner of execution in the
state to replace hanging. The use
of gas as a means of execution
was held by BuU to be a more
humane manner of taking the
life of a criminal for . capital
crimes. . ' .
The last of the deficiency bills
before the legislature went into
discard when the house approved
an adverse report from the Judi
ciary committee on Represents
tire Antrim's bill to outlaw de
ficiencies on mortgage foreclos
ure.
In the first test of labor
strength on the -floor of the
house yesterday morning, . the
labor forces met defeat by a 32
to 28 vote. The showdown came
on a rote on house bill 54 which
would have, placed labor Hens on
lumber ahead of lendors'.. liens
even when stored in a. public
warehouse.." . -:;
Representative Phil Brady led
the fight for the measure declar
ing that ' workmen needed pro
tection In order to collect their
wages and that the bill would
remedy the situation by giving
them a prior right to control the
products upon which they bad
worked.
Opponents ot the bill conn
tered by declaring that should
the labor liens be allowed to fol
low the products into the ware
houses, bankers would refuse to
loan money to finance the small
mills and as a conseauence work
men would suffer mor by not
being able to find work.
Bolrln Opposes
Representatives BoItIb snd
Alber spoke against the bill as
did Representative GraaL
"If this bill la passed it win
drive the little man out of bus
iness." Grant said. "It will cre
ate the greatest lumber monop
