and University Three.
Salem — Senator Moser made an
open statement on the floor of the
senate that he was satisfied that the
bill providing for reimbursing the
school fund from the general fund for
expenses in connection with the state
treasurer’s office was nothing more
nor less than intended as a slap at the
treasurer by Governor West.
“ As the newspapers said at the time
when this bill was introduced, and as
one can see by reading the bill, it is
intended as a direct attack on State
Treasurer Kay,” declared Senator
Moser, “ and we have a right to infer
that, because Senator Joseph acted as
messenger for the governor, when he
came into the senate and endeavored
to impugn the statements of one of its
members, that he also acted as mes
senger for the governor when he intro
duced this bill.
“ And when we find that if the bill
is a just bill, it should carry $175,000
instead of the $23,000 shown, it is
conclusive proof that the bill was di
rected at the treasurer.”

providing
for an annual I
tax of four-tenths of a mill for the
operation, maintenance and improve
ment of the Oregon Agricultural col
lege. It previously passed a bill for a
levy of three-tenths of a mill for the
University of Oregon. These bills, if
they become the law, will do away
with legislative action biennially.
The house spent several hours in
passing the bills appropriating sums
for the University of Oregon and the
Agricultural college. For the former
a total of $362,833 was allowed, and
for the latter approximately $360,000
for buildings, etc., and $300,000 for
maintenance and operation were al
lowed.
The house adhered closely to the
recommendations of the ways and
means committee, and all attempts to
break the programme failed. It was
argued that the memberb had given
great consideration to the items and
that their judgment should be taken.
