URGES FLAT SALARY
FOR STATE PRINTER
Salem, Ore., Jan. 18. A bill pro--vlding
for a flat salary for the state
printer, reviving the regular biennial
struggle over this Question, was In
troduced in the senate yesterday af
ternoon by Miller of Linn, who con
tends that the state can save a large
-amount of money by installing a
printing plant and doing Its own
work.
The proposed law places the super
vision of printing in the hands of a
.state board, consisting of the gover
nor, secretary of state and state
rtreasurer, who are represented by a
printing expert. The salary of the
printer is fixed in a tentative way at
$4000, the idea of the framers of the
bill being that the compensation shall
'be. named after close inspection of
the situation.

RHEUMATISM
PURIFYIK THE BLOOD
THE ONLY PERMANENT ORE
No case of Rheumatism was ever
- cured except by a thorough purifica
tion of the blood ; just as long as the
blood remains charged with ferment
ing uric acid poison, the painful dis
ease will continue. The pains and
aches of Rheumatism are simply su
perficial effects of the impurities in
the circulation, and sometimes may
be temporarily relieved by the appli-
cation of plasters, liniments, hot
cloths, etc. But the person who trifles
with this dangerous disease by de
pending on local treatment alone, is
certain to pay for the mistake with
constant suffering later on. S. S. S.
cures Rheumatism iu the only way it
is possible to cure the disease. It
goes down into the blood, and re
moves the uric acid from the circula
tion, so that the nerves, bones, mus
cles and joints are lubricated and fed
with nourish'
1 n g elements
instead of being
continually ir
ritated and in
flamed with the
sharp, uratic
i m p u r i t y .
When S. S. S.
has cleansed
and purified the
' blood, the pains and aches cease, all
inflammation disappears, stiffened
muscles are made pliant, and every
troublesome symptom of Rheumatism
is permanently corrected. Book on
Rheumatism and any medical advice
Iures to present in suport of this bill.

der the present system makes not less
than J 75.000 profit in a four year
term, and says that with Increasing
business the profit will be $100,000
during the next four years.
The bill makes an appropriation ot
85,000 with which to buy a $20,000
printing plant and meet all expenses
the printing department for the
next two years. This sum Miller
thinks is ample for all purposes un
der the flat salary rule and he com
pares It with the expenses shown by
the budget for 1909-10, amounting
to $110,000. Estimating a normal in
crease, the secretary of state esti
mates the expense for the next two
years at $120,000.
Wants Tab on Work.
Miller argues that it is impossible
to fix printing rates on an equitable
basis to fit the varying conditions.
Much time, he says, will be saved in
measuring and computing the rates.
He further makes the point that the
purchase of material by the state
printer is now without supervision
and there exists no means of question.

bill will run counter to a strong sen

TWO ASSISTANTS FOR
ATTORNEY GENERAL
Salem, Or., Jan. 18. To correct the
omission of former legislative sessions
to provide legally for an assistant for
the attorney general, a bill was In
troduced yesterday in the house by
Representative Buchanan of Doug
las county, which was prepared by the
attorney general, providing for two
assistants for the attorney general,
and fixing their salaries at $2100 and
$1600 respectively.
Because the circuit court for this
county. Judge L. T. Harris of Lane
county presiding, has recently decld
ed that there Is no legal provision for
the present assistant attorney general.
an emergency is declared to exist and
the bill. Is passed will become a law
as soon as approved by the governor.
In an action brought recently by
Attorney Daniel Powers of Portland
the office of assistant atorney general
was attacked and it is believed that
there Is ground to believe that there
Is no legislative sanction or founda
tion for the office. For that reason
the new bill was Introduced yesterday
In the house. The bill also provides
for a stenographer at a salary of $1200
a year In addition to two assistants.
INVENT AEROPLANE
Spokane, Wash., Jan. 18. To Spo
kane men will go the credit of origi
nating a new idea in aeroplane con
struction according to experiments
and the forecasts made by many fly
ing machine men who have seen the
models at work here.
The airship is known as the Coyne
Helicopter and it is the invention of
Mr. W. E. Coyne and George Fos
ter, both of Spokane. The declared
possibilities of the machine are such
as to startle those who are not fa
miliar with the plans.
Instead of a little six-cylinder en
gine the Helicopter will be equipped
with four 100 horsepower motors to
work the planes above the machine,
which rotate at a rapid rate and give
the airship a lifting power of 128,000
pounds. An additional motor of great
power is installed to run the propel
ler which drives the ship ahead.
The car is built on the idea of a
plum bob. It cannot "turn turtle,"
for it will always hold Its poise and
is designed In such a manner as to
enable it to land on the top of a roof.
It requires no flying start, but once
the machinery is set In motion It can
rise imediately into the air.
The two sets of planes are minia
ture biplanes and the upper and low
er set rotate In opposite directions.
They are installed at an angle and
the speedy rotation gives It the tre
mendous lifting power. It Is estimat
ed the car will have a speed of from
75 to 150 miles an hour. According
to the computations made It is ex
pected to be able to carry from 35 to
40 passengers.
A company has been formed under
the name of the Coyne Helicopter
Airship company and has miniature
models on exhibition here. The com
pany is now planning the erection of
a full-sized aeroplane.

HOUSE TO INVESTIGATE
BAILEY'S OFFICE
Salem, Ore., Jan. 18. Action taken
by the house this morning for the
Investigation of the office of State
Dairy and Food Commissioner J. W.
Bailey may lead to the impeachment
of that officer and his removal from
office. The sentiment of the house
was plainly shown this morning in
the adoption ot the resolution provid
ing for the inquiry wltnout a dissent
ing voice.
The resolution was Introduced Last
week by Abrams of Marion. It in
cluded a clause for the Investigation
of the master fish warden and for
the Btate board of health, because
they are located in Portland. In the
resolution committee the proposal was
amended so as to exclude Investiga
tion of these two offices, the members
unanimously declaring that there was
no call for such inquiries.
An important provision, however,
was inserted into the resolution pro
viding that a report De made by the
Investigating committee within three
weeks.
Passage of a similar resolution n
the senate, Introduced by senator Not
tingham, Is forecasted.
Provision Is made for a committee
of five, three from the house and two
from the senate, who shall conduct
the investigation and be empowered
to hire all necessary clerical help;
Their epersonal expenses shall also be
defrayed.
Bailey's office is very likely to be
the only one Investigated at this ses
sion. There are reasons for others.
Including the penitentiary, state treas
urer's office and soldier's home at
Roseburg, but they will be killed in
committee. A majority of the house
members believe such investigations
merely provide opportunity for hand
ing out a large number of clerkships.

CARTER OPPOSES
KLAMATH PROJECT
The Klamath Irrigation project is
given a black eye In a report dratted
by Senator Carter, chairman of the
senate Irrigation committee, says a
special from Washington to a Port
land paper. Tha report covers tho ob
servations of his committee when it
Inspected the government projects a
year ago last summer.
It alleges. In substance, that the
Klamath prolect should never have
been undertaken by the government,
as most of the land is In private own
ership. Moreover, without spaclflclal
ly so charging, the report Intimates
there was ktobs frauds in the pur
chase of private canals which have
since been Incorporated In Use govern
ment project.
The reclamation service Is con
demned for selling to Moore Broth
ers for $30,000 a perpetual power
privilege on Link river on the govern
ment canal. The privilege is declared
by the committee to be worth $400,
000. Ths report also holds It unconstitu
tional to drain Tule Swamps as con
templated by the government plans.
"The record of hearings held by the
committee at Klamath Falls disclose
accusations which call In question the
good faith, If not the Integrity, of
those charged with the management
of the reclamation service," says Car
ter. He says his committee did not have
to sift these charges, but turned them
over to Secretary Balllnger for Inves
tigation. If this portion of Carter's report Is
not altered It may be Impossible to se
cure further allotments for the com
pletion of the Klamath project.
