Bell APRIL 1st, APRIL 15th, 1911 STATE LEGISLATURE FINISHES BUSINESS 'I he state legislature adjourned Saturday night after having ran up a budget ot approximately $5,000,000. With the exception of the four good road bills, but little real constructive lawmaking was carried on. However, if the start made under this legislation leads to an awakening all over the state to the importance of road build ing, as its friends predict, the road bills may mark a important year and cause the legislature of 1911 to be gratefully remembered for what it grudgingly gave. Of bills of a political phase, Speaker Rusk's second choice primary bill, passed in the last hours of the session, will perhaps take a leading place. It is copied partly from the Washington and partly from the Idaho law, and requires every voter to name his secdnd as well as first choice for every office for which there are more than two candidates. If no candidate wins a majority of first choice Jvotes, the one having the greatest number of first and second choice will become the nominee. In order that the public institutions of the state may be better provided for, a purchasing board, composed of the governor, secretary pt state and treasurer, was created. This board will employ a state purchasing agent who will keep in close touch with the needs of the public institutions and the markets from which they are supplied and be ready to advise with the board at any time. the state board of health was c?red for by giving it 115,000 annually to combat disease and look after the health of the state. An additional $5000 was voted for protection against the Bubonic plague. An immigration bureau rwas estab lished in accordance with the urgent recommendation of Louis W. Hill and the publicity interests of the state. It will have $25,000 to boost Oregon in the east. Since fruit raising is one of the state's chief resources, it came in for a good share of appropriations. Two more experimental stations were es tablished, one each in Harney and Jackson counties. The stations al ready existing received a nice slice of the budget and $20,000 was voted for the investigation of fruit and plant pests. Livestock interests received atten tion by the passage of the Burgess and Hawley Bill, which provides for the appropriation of $50,000 for the pur pose of conducting a state wide tuber cu losis (est The university receives $753,000, the agricultural college $50,000, providing two new buildings for the universitj and one for O. A. C. The Monmouth normal school, sole survivor of the normal school fight of former 'sessions, was voted $50,000 for a girls' dormi tory. County school supervisors are provided for in all counties of the state where there are more than 60 school districts. Standardization of normal schools, colleges and teachers' certifi cates is made by another bill. All circuit judges of the state were placed on $4000 per year, and with'one new judge in Multnomah county, the total increase in salaries for the judges will be $48,000. Circuit judges are now paid $3000 by the state, but Multno mah and many other counties pay $1000 more from county funds, so the bill does not mean an actual increase of L (5) CH 6th, 19 W. F salary for most of the judges. A prosecuting attorney for each county in the state is provided by another bill, the only exception being that Union and Wallowa were left in one district. The idea is U strengthen the individuality of each county and let each one choose the prosecutor it wants. Communication from Mr. Mason. Editor Glacier : The legislature has adjourned and at last 1 urn at home without a buise or a broken bone. Though lied about, misrepresented by the pess, and subjected to unfriendly citicisms in local petitions, 1 am some what pleased to know that I have as sisted the State Grange of Oregon in giving to us the best, and most impor tant of the four good road laws recent ly enacted by the legislature. At the Good Roads meeting held in Portland December 12th we objected to bonding any county and leave the loca tion of roads to be improved to the county court s opinion exclusively. For taking this stand we were opposed by one of the. strongest politcal ma chines ever inaugurated in this state. Hence we could no expect fair treat ment. We were called obstructionists, and branded as pugilists. We were without representation in the press and branded as self-constituted delegates. But time forbids my going into details. However, it gives me pleasure to state that our fight for justice was won. Twicf the bill was illegally mutilated and changed by some one who had but little respect for honor, honesty, or the law. I trust that my friends (?) who signed the petitions, branding me as a self-appointed delegate, will make Some inquiry as to my official power there, as a member of the third nouse and the results. It has cost the State Grange of Oreogn $1)50 for the expenses of their executive board and legisla tive committee, to give to that people of Oregon a county bonding law that will enable them to build good roads, with absolute power vested in the people to locate such roads. Now allow me to make some sugges tions. This law will not be eircetive for 90 days, but we can call a mass meeting and formulate a plan for action. We can determine how much we desire, what bond rodas we want to improve, have estimates made by the County Surveyor, and get out our petitions and have them ready to post in fifteen minutes. v A. I.

He ;had warned several bystanders, watching his operations, not to go too close to the dynamite, but he apparently failed to heed his own warnings. He was taken into town Monday night and placed under a physician's care, but may lose his sight. No Students Flunked. For the first time in the hiBtory of the University, students who failed to make their required credits will be al lowed to continue their course. There were only a few, however, who failed 11 OMPAN 1911 to pass nine hours and all of them are students who have formerly been good students, but because of the recent typhoid scare they were absent from classes a good deal and were handi capped in not getting their work up. The leniency of the faculty is attrib uted to the fact that the students had maintained a high standard in their work up to this semester and they will be given another chance to make good.
