tAGK 3. JHK BKND I1UM.KT1N, HKNI, vYRDNKSDAY, JANUAUY 3, 1010. -. i LAWMAKERS' W 0 R K AS KID Initial Week Sees 225 Bills Introduced 'Many Measures Vetoed By Governor West Crop Up Again, Seven Being Passed. SALEM, Jan. 20. (Special to i now public offices, Tho Hullctln). The first week a session of tho twouty-soventh IorIs Intlvo assembly of Ore go a was re. markablo tor Iho prompt manner In which the lawmakers got down to ac tual work and the great amount ot business accomplished Is In strong contrast to tho time-marking proceed Ings ot previous sessions. In tho past the first week has been frittered away with nothing accomplished aside from organisation. The presiding officers were practi cally selected In advance, and the rote on C. N. McArthar for speaker of the house and Dan Malarkoy for president ot the senate was a mere formality that took up little time. Both presid ing officers promptly announced their committees and the business ot legis lation began the first day ot the ses sion, somothtng heretofore unheard of. For tho first time in the history ot Oregon legislatures bills were intro duced on the first day ot the session and for tho first time a bill was passed during the first week of the session. In the bouse 150 bills hare been in troduced the first week as compared with 30 bills at tho preceding session, and in tho senate 75 bills have been Introduced as against 36 bills last ses sion toUl of 225 bills. No bills passed the house the first week last session and none tfc-i senate. Four bills paseed tho house this week and ooo the senate. The house al ready baa begun the consideration ot senate bills aad the senate of house bills. Lost session the house did not reach the consideration of senato bills until ths third week. 8anate Overrides Several Vetoes Tho senate is ahead of the house on the vetoed measure of the lost ses sion, having acted on all of the bills originating In that body, and only one remains to be finally passed on. The house has acted on only a few of Its vetoed bills. In overruling the governor, the members as a rule showed Independ ence, exhibiting neither a friendly nor unfriendly spirit. The presiding otfl ers, who have the situation well In hand, assert that in their opinion there will bo no effort on the part ot this legislative assembly to punish West for his past activities in the legislative domain, while on the other hand be will receive the consideration due his office it he does not attempt any en croachments. Appropriation Bills Large Appropriation bills making demands on the state treasury of 31,078,700 bare been introduced. This Is a re cord breaker, as It Is the first time that appropriation bills bare ever been Introduced during the first week. It seems to be a pretty well settled fact that the appropriation for Panama-Pacific Eiposltlon will not get past the 1250,000 mark at tho outside, al- tnougn some or the members oro boosting for 1300,000. A great number of them bare settled on $200,000 as the proper figures, while others are eren anxious to go lower than that. Measures Passed Over Veto. The measures passed over veto ot governor in the senate were: Forbidding spending where there is no available appropriation. Creating emergency board In time of need when deficiency exists. Providing livestock board; abolishing sheep inspector, state and county veterinarians. Meth od for dividing counties. Proridlng fish hatchery at Spring Creek, In creasing district attorney's salary In Fifth Judicial district, i The vetoes sustained In the bouse were: A measure proridlng for second cholco in primary elections. A meas ure modifying law with regard to di verting funds from ordained use. May Abolish Purchasing Board. The appropriation of $15,000 for tho biennial period, which has been Intro duced in connection with McArtbur's bill establishing a state board of con trol. Is really a substitute appropria tion for a similar amount which Is carried In the state purchasing board appropriation bill, which was passed two years ago. In event the McArthur bill goes through it will virtually do away with tho state purchasing board by placing the duties of that board with the state board of control. The appropriation of $3000 a year which Is carried for th. salor of tho governor's secretary Is practically a duplicate of the present cost to the state for that office. Now bo acts as clerk of several boards of the various Institutions. In event the board of control bill goes through these duties would be token from him and his sal ary dropped to $1200 a year. While numerous acts for the repeal ing of laws which prpvlde for public offices and commissions nave been In troduced, at the same time, for the first week of a session, it Is fairly well Jioldlnx its own as to bills creating One bill creating tho Accident In dustrial commission provides for three commlssloners,each to receive a salary of $3600 a year, thus carrying provis ion In this bill for salaries alone of $10,800 a year, or $21,000 for a biennial period. Another bill, which creates a chair ot logging engineering at the Oregon agricultural college, carries with it an appropriation of $05,000. A bill baa also been Introduced to provide tor the examination ot rural credits in European countries which carries an appropriation tor the ex penses of the Investigators. The bill providing for a Bureau ot Mines and Oeology la practically creat ing a new bureau, although there Is a Bureau ot Mines at the Oregon agri cultural college which will be done away with If this bill passes. The bill creating a stato board of control really creates no new board. but does away with a number of old ones and centralises and expands somewhat the duties ot the present stato board, which Is made up ot tho governor, secretary ot state and stato treasurer. Interstate Bridge Wins First Round Multnomah won tho first round In Its battle for legislative consideration ot an Interstate brldgo between Wash, lngton and Oregon over tho Columbia river, when tho senate indorsed a house resolution providing for a com mittee to meet with tho Washington legislature. The resolution provides that a com mittee of two from the senate and three from tho bouse shall meet with a like committee from the Washing ton legislature to confer on the ques tion ot tho advisability of the bridge and tho ways and means to secure the desired result. Invited to View Hilt's Good Roads Governor Weet and all the members of the legislature were invited by Sam uel lilll to bo his guests at his expense on a visit to Marjhlll. Wash., to In spect his seven varieties of good roods. It Is thought favorable action will bo taken, as tho time set for the visit Is either a Saturday or Sunday, when the work of the session will not Ukely bo seriously affected. The legislature Is given the choloe of two dated, Sat urday, February 8, or Sunday, Febru ary 9. Changes In Oregon System Proposed Tho Initiative and referendum and the corrupt practices act are being made In prospect the subject of nu merous amendatory acta at the pres ent session, but according to indica tions the majority of tho amendments to tbeso acts which bare alrcadyjjocn proposod will meetvwlth scant favor from tho committees to which they havo been referred. Among tho acts Is onn that provides that no more than two constitutional amendments nor flvo general laws shall bo submitted to tho peoplo at any one election. Another bill proposes that after an Inttlntlvo bill has receiv ed so many adverse vote It shall not go on tho ballot agatn for n period ot six years. Tho corrupt practices act Is also tho subject of a largo number ot bills which proposo amendatory clauses. Check on Campaign Erpente la Urgtd With tho view ot confining tho ex penditure ot money, either In behnlf or against any Initiative measure, to tho publicity psraphlets and newspa per advertising, Representative Ulan chard, of Josephlno, Introduced a bill In the houso which. If passed, will revolutionise proceedings with rela tion to Initiating measures and wag ing campaigns with relation to them. The bill. In brief, provide that It shall bo unlawful for anyone to expend money In promoting a measuro or de feating It, savo In arguments In tho publicity pamphleta and In tho news papers. This cuts oft all distribution of private literature, and also all other means of expenditure. Ooird of Control for Institutions A bill Introduced In the bouse by Speaker McArthur provide for a stnto board of control to take over the man agement and affairs of 11 state Insti tutions, some of which now have sep arate governing boards. Tho Institutions Included are the Oregon stato hospital, the Eastern Oregon stste hospital, the state Insti tution for feeble minded, the Oregon state training school, the Orecon state penitentiary, the Oregon state school for the blind, the Oregon state school for the deaf, the Oregon tuberculosis hospital, the Oregon state soldiers' home and the capltol and supreme court buildings. The board of control as provided for In tho bill Is to consist of tho gover nor, the secretary of state and the stato treasurer. The board Is to meet on the first Monday of each month, and alt Its meetings are to be open to the public. It shall be the duty of the members of the board under tho law to visit each Institution, with tho ex ception of the Eastern Oregon state hospital sod the Oregon state soldiers' homo at least oace in every three toon the, aaft to visit thee Institutions at least cne every year. , A cjiuulllrri ail In Tho Hullctln Is read by hundreds mid orings llio nil Yert liter nooil returns for tho money Invested.
