PROSECUTION Harrisburg, Jan. 39.—The problem of the defense in the capitol prosecu tions has been changed completely by the action of Architect Joaeph M. Huston, of Philadelphia, In securing a aeparate trial with the coneent of Salem, Ore., Jan. 27.—A big sur the commonwealth. Huston’s action prise was sprung today when Mayor seems to Indicate that he has an J F Reddy of Medford, filed an Ini tiative petition for a constitutional amendment, which, if adopted, will result In many "open towns" in Ore gon. Ills measure proposes an amend ment to the section of the constitu tion relative to municipal corpora tion. The purpose is to give cities exclusive authority to license, regu late or suppress race tracks, pool rooms, theaters, saloons and similar places. The effect of this amendment, if adopted, would be to divest sheriffs and district attorneys of the power to suppress poolrooms, Sunday saloons and Sunday theatres and give munici pal authorities power to run a town as wide open as they desire. The cuustltutlon now provides that city charters must be "subject to the con stitution and criminal laws of the Btate." The amendment proposed by Mr. Reddy leaves out this important clause.
