LAWMAKERS' WORK AS REVIEWED
Tension Between Governor nnd Legislators Tense.
Vetoed Measures Passed Many Liquor Bills.
Widows' Pension Bill Passes House.
SALEM, January 2S. (Special to
Tho Bulletin )-Tho only lniortnnt
work accomplished during tho second
week's session of the legislature, aside
from the election of Dr. Harry I"o
to the United Stales scnato, which was
& mere perfunctory matter devoid of
the old tlmo political Interest, was
the passage of several vetoed bills
of tho last session over Governor
West's head. Tho Important bills In
troduced this session are mostly In
the committee stage, or hava only
passed one house.
Tho vetoed blls passed Included the
Thompson bill, relative to land drain
age, tho bill relating to formation of
new counties, leaving division to peo
ple In counties affected, salary In
creases for district attorneys In fourth
and fifth districts and bill creating
livestock sanitary board and appro
priating 15,000 for eradication of con
tagious diseases.
The tension between the legislature
and the governor became acuto during
the week and the Indications pointed
to a lively scrap between the execu
tive and the lawmakers. The Incep
tion of tho warfare was the action of
tho bouse In lining up with the senate
in passing vetoed bills over his head.
The governor was particularly Irrita
ted over the prospect of tho passage
of tho Warner Lake bill, which he
claimed was not for tho Interest of
actual settlers but for land specula
tors. Ho gave notice that he would use
the veto ax freely on bills. There was
talk among members of organising the
two branches with a two-thirds major
ity to pass bills by the wholesale over
his veto. It was also suggested that
the session might be extended over
the usual forty deys, In order to over
ride the governor's vetoes.
Deadline on Appropriations
I The governor announced that ho
would draw a deadline on appropria
tions and that nothing above a certain
amount would receive his approval.
He explained that be will have a chart
drawn, which will be placed In a con
spicuous place In the state house, on
which a lino will be drawn at the top.
In red Ink. and It will carry In figures
the limit he Is willing to go on ap
propriations. This chart will be pre
pared some tlmo this week, and each
day the money bills will be posted on
It. As they become laws the total
will be shown and after .the deadline
is passed the ax will fall no matter
who Is hit.
The temper of the legislature seems
to be to take issue with the governor,
and unless oil Is poured on the trou
bled waters there will be some fire
works before the close of the session.
449 Measures Introduced
With adjournment at the end of the
second week 296 bills bad been intro
duced In the house of representatives
and 153 bills In the senate, or a total
of U9 bills so far this session. Last
session at the close of the second
week 172 bills bad been Introduced in
the house and 125 In the senate.
During the second week of the ses
sion elx bouse bills passed the senate
and two of them were signed by tho
governor. The two signed by the gov
ernor, both repeal old sections of the
code. In addition to these two Camp
bell's bill, relating to the term of of
fice of certain state officers; Lewel
ling's bill, to abolish the office of state
land agent; Heltzel's bill, relating to
the manner of executing the satisfac
tion of mortgages and Hlnkle's bill re
lating to limitation of Indebtedness for
irrigation districts, all bouse bills,
have passed tho senate. The house
has so far passed no senate bills.
Many Liquor Laws Proposed
This session of the legislature has
seen the Introduction of more bills re
lating to the liquor business and mor
als than any for several years bast.
Many of them, In fact a majority of
them, have emanated from the gover
nor. This Is not true of one of the
more Important, wheb came in tbe
shape of a resolution to place before
the people at tbe next general election
a constitutional amendment providing
for the repeal of tbe home rule amend
ment It is Introduced with bis ap
proval, however.
Tbe bouse has passed Dlancberd's
bill striking at the owners of places
of 111 repute, and the senate has pass
ed Calkin's bill to give a right of ac
tion for damages to the family of an
habitual drunkard or Intoxicated per
son to whom liquor Is sold In violation
of law. This week the senate Is ex
pected to pass Hoskln's bill prohibit
ing tbe sale of any kind of Intoxicants
outside the limits of Incorporated cit
ies and' towns,

olution, consisting of two from tho

Tho houso passed the resolution, but
the senato voted It down, ny special

same figure. Administration of tho
