PLAN CURB ON RULE IN COMING HOUSE WASHINGTON. Mar. 7.--Ill-partisan organization of the Incoming house, with Champ Clark as speaker, and Hie rommlitoo memberships and pntroniiui' equally divided, is being discussed by democratic and republi can members as a possibility In the event the five Independent members hold up public business lu the next session by attempting to dictate how I he house shall he organized. The Independents thus far have de dined to align themselves with eith er of the big imrtle.i .-mi Imve held sewrnl secret unlciem os. Reports of officers, allowances of bills and other routine matters occu pied tho attention of the city coun cil last night. The report of the police judge showed a total of H cases d urine life past month with fines aggregating JM.O,-, collected. The report of the city health of 11' c r for the six weens ending March 1, showed 24 deiths, 110 bir hs, T. families placed in quarantine and 1 1 indigents treated with a toll. I of 20 visits. Appended to the report was a statement showing that during the entire year of 191 G, the former health officer treated only 20 Indigents. At the present rate, the number this year would be many times the 191G fig ure. The Increase, tho noto continued, was no doubt due to a great increase in destitution among the people of Medford. A request followed that the salary of the health officer lie raised lo tho old figure of ?3fi per month, having been dropped, with the coming Into office of the present city ad ministration to ?25 per month. Tho council refused to grant, the raise, adopting the altitude that the city health officer is bolng "worked" by those who can really dfford to Pay a physician. The matter of licensing trucks, Jit neys, billpostlng and plumbers was brought up and discussed, hut no action was takon.
