RESUME GF WORK GF STATEJBISUTOI Review of Doings of Oregon's Legislators During the Past Week. Amount of First Week's Work Small, as Usual Incipient Mutiny In House Two Prohibition Bills In troducedMay Regulate Commis sion Houses State Horticultural Commissioner Proposed Tax Meas ures Numerous. Salem Just as in previous scs sions, the first week of the twenty eighth session passed with very little accomplished aside from organization. When organization was completed, instead of getting promptly down to work considerable time was wasted in oratory over the number of clerks and stenographers to be employed. Some of the lawmakers, in view of the econ omy talk which prevailed, thought it would be a good idea to begin with cutting down the running expenses of the session by getting along with few er clerks, but after the flow of talk ceased both houses concluded the us ual number of clerks would be neces sary. In the senate, with Senator W. Lair Thompson, of Lake county, as presid ing officer, the legislative wheels ap pear to be running smoothly, but in the house, as a result of dissatisfac tion over Speaker Ben Selling's com mittee appointments and an antagon istic spirit which arose against the Multnomah county delegation, a well defined mutiny against the house or ganization developed. A few hotheads even talked of deposing the speaker, nullifying his committee appointments and substituting others nominated from the floor of the house. Number of Important Bills Introduced While much of the first week of the session was taken up with organiza tion, inauguration of the Governor and useless oratory over clerkships, when the legislature did get down to law making a number of the important questions to come before the session appeared in the shape of bills. These included measures to amend the tax laws, consolidate departments of the slate government for economy, to make effective the prohibition amend ment and revision of the game laws. The economy spirit manifested it self in the senate when that body voted to eliminate appropriations, for the state accountancy board and the state immigration commission and by authorizing the suspension of the de cennial census, effecting an approxi mate saving of 1170,000. At the close of the first week the house had 102 bills before it and the senate 49. All passed second reading. Dry Measures Pending in House. While there is no universal agree ment on the prohibition question, it is certain that a measure will be passed strictly in accordance with the pro visions of the constitutional amend ment adopted by the people at the No vember election. Two prohibition bills 'now are pending in the house. The Committee of One Hundred's bill was the first measure introduced in that body. It has been referred to the committee on alcoholic liquor. D. C. Lewis, of St. Johns, is the author of another measure now in the hands of the .same committee. Yet another measure may be introduced this week. Ora R. ' Porter, representative from Douglas county, is the author. Representative Lewis declared that he introduced a bill on the subject be cause he was dissatisfied with the committee's bill. His measure is rad ical in the extreme. The legislators are determined to enact an effective prohibition law. II the Committee of One Hundred's bill is amended it will be to make it more drastic. Estimates for Institutions May Stand That the estimates made by the state board of control for appropria tions for the various state institutions for 1915 and 1916 will not be material ly changed, if changed at all, is the belief after the first week's session of the legislature. Estimates were made first by the superintendents and con siderable reductions made by the board in several instances. The committee on ways and means of the senate is probing thoroughly the management of Jhe institutions and has visited the blind school, the liute school and the state insane asy lum. After spending a day at the lat ter institution and the cottage farm, an adjunct, committee members an nounced that they were well pleased with the management of all institu tions visited and were especially well pleased with the management of the insane asylum. Strict Regulations to Protect Farmers Rigid regulations for commission merchants are prescribed In a bill in troduced in the house by Representa tive Blanchard, of Josephine county. The bill amends the present law re lating to commission merchants, and provides for the transfer of Jurisdic tion over them from the state railroad 1 ron missiou to the secretary of stale Provision is made that before a coin mission merchant can enpnge in bus! uess he must obtain a licence and give a bond that he will faithfully report to ail persons consigning horticultural, agricultural and viticulture!' produce and farm products to him, and prompt ly pay to each the proceeds of all sales after deducting a commission of not more than 5 per cent on carload lots, and 10 per cent on smaller lots, and actual disbursements connected with the sale of the produce. 'ihe bill providing for the creation of a state horticultural commissioner, prepared by the state horticultural so ciety, was introduced in the house by Representative Vawter, of Jackson. The measure aims to regulate the fruit and orchard industry of the state, prescribes uniform inspection systems and requires owners to spray their trees and otherwise protect them from insects and various other forms of pests. The measure proposes to abolish the present board of horticulture and place a commissioner to be appointed by the governor in charge. His sal ary is fixed at $3000 a year. It also provides for the appointment of fruit tree inspectors in those coun ties of the state that care to appoint them at their own expense. Such in spectors, however, are to be subject to the regulations of the proposed law and report to the state commissioner. Imported Eggs Got Attention In House Three bills striking at imported eggs were introduced in the house by Representative Allen, of Marion coun ty. The first provides that all eggs imported and sold in the state shall be marked ' imported" the second that all food products in packages in which eggs are an ingredient shall be mark ed "Imported eggs used," the third provides that drink dispensers who use imported eggs in any drink they sell must have a sign posted in their establishment advising the public of this fact. Woman Legislator Introduces Bill. Miss Marian B. Towne's first bill to be presented to the house was in troduced Friday. The only woman in the legislature has a measure to pun ish conspiracy, the present laws, she says, having nothing to cover the point. She would punish by a fine ol prom $100 to $10,000 each person who accomplishes any part of the conspir acy or would imprison him from 3C days to one year in jail or In the pent tentiary from oiie to five years. Tax Bills Are Introduced, Senator Smith of Coos and Curr Introduced a bill for a new tax law. I! changes the date for which assess ments should be made from March 1 to January 1, and provides that th first payment shall become due on No veniber 1, of the year in which the as sesnient is made and the second pay ment shall become due April 1 of tin following year. No penalties are pro vided. Senator Barrett, of Umatilla, als introduced a tax bill in the uppe house, and members of the Mnltnoma! county delegation have another meas ure in course of preparation. It pro!) ably will be Introduced in the lowci house within a few days. These meas urea are similar in some particular.",, but differ in other essential provis ions. Both provide for semi-annual payments. The Multnomah county bi!! allows a discount for all payments in excess of 50 per cent made at the first period, while the Barrett bill does not The Multnomah county bill attaches a penalty of 12 per cent per annum against delinquent payments, while the Barrett penalty is fixed at the rate of only 8 per cent. The payments dates also differ. Legislative Nuggets. Indications are that Senator Dim Ick's bill to abolish the Oregon naval militia is going to have easy sailing in the senate. A bill designed to keep heavy freight automobile trucks off unpavod high ways at certain seasons of the year was introduced by Senator Vinton. It provides that they shall not go on uu paved highways between October 15 and April 15 following. Surgical treatment and hospital care for indigent, crippled and deformed children of the state are provided for in a bill introduced by Senator Gar land of Linn county. A bill providing that persons liable by statute for inmates of the state in sane and feeble-minded hospitals, if able, pay to the state $15 a month for the maintenance of each inmate was introduced in the senate by the Mar ion county delegation. Provision is made in a bill Intro duced in the house by Representative Schuebel for the abolition of the pres ent state fish and game commission, and the substitution therefor of a com mission to consist of the governor, master fish warden and state game warden. Resolutions providing for submis sion to the people of constltutlqnal amendments designed to put an end to frauds in connection with the "cir culation of initiative, recall and refer endum petitions were Introduced by Senator Day. It is planned to bar per sons from signing petit'ons who are not registered voters, LEGAL NOTICES. NOTICE FOR rruLic.mox. Department of the Interior, U. S.
