KEW EIGHT-HOUR
LAW IS ENIGMA
Oregon Journal : State ofliciala are
considerably concerned over the inter
pretation that will be put on the eight
hour law pasted tiy initiative vote at
lad Hci-tion. If It should apply to all
state employes it would increase the
cot of maintaining state institutions
and state departments many "hundreds
of thousands of doll irs yearly.
But liovernor West, State Treasurer
Kav and Secretary of State Olcotl are
unanimous in declaring that it doea riot
apoly to state, county or municipal em
ployes. They declare that it applies
only to contract work. Mr. Kay put
the new law up to Attorney General
Crawford today for interpretation, and
the attorney general will give a written
opinion early next week.
In discussing the matter the attorney
general said that the whole Intent
of the law was' to apply to contract
work, and the only question was whe
ther the technical wording in para
graph our might be interpreted iy
the courts to apply to all alate, county
and raunioipal employes. Hi offhand
opinion was that it could not be so
construed.
The provision in doubt reads:
"in all cases where labor is employ
ed by the state, county, school district,
municipality, municipal corporation, or
sub-division, either directly or through
another, as a contractor, no person
shall te required or permitted to labor
more than eight hours in any one day,
etc."
"If the state would directly contract
to have its wood sawed this law would
apply to such a case the same as it
would applv to a contract let for con
Ftrurtion of a buildirg," Oeclared the
attorney general, "but I do not now
believe that the law would apply to re
gular employes of the state engaged
bv the month."
Attendants at the asylum and guaids
at the penitentiary are on the same
footing as memters of the city fire de
partments, and it is this class of em
ployes whom the attorney general snys
tne law does not include.
PLEA IS MADE FOR
POOR CHILDREN
All persons who have the welfare of
dependent children at heart will have
an opDortunity of assisting them this
Thanksgiving by sending something,
however small, to the Society who aids
such children and as its name implies
this refers to both sexes. The Boys'
and Uirls' Aid Society of Oregon with
its headquarters at Portland, Oregon
ia ar. institution organized more than
a quarter of a century ago for the care
and disposition of hoi eless, neglected
and abused children, to receive and
care fur them from all parts of the
State until suitable homes or employ
ment is found fur them and to continue
systematic attention to their condition
and treatment until tiey arrive at ma
jority. This is the no le work to which
the efforts of the Hoys and Uirls' Aid
Society of Oresron is bent. It reciuves,
cares for and disposes ot an average
of about 400 children each year. Its
income is derived from State and
County aid and from voluntary sub
scriptions and as Thanksgiving in the
harvest and the time of year when
nearly all its income is derived from
Drivate sources, it is certainly hoped
that all friends will come forward and
do something to aid his noble work for
humanity.
The public schools as well as indi
viduals will be asked to contribute.
The railroad and express companies
, as well as the steamboat companies
I throughout the State will deadhead all
; donations sent to the Boys' and Girls'
Aid Society of Oregon during tni
Thanksgiving season if plainly marked,
Boys' ana Girla' Aid Society of Ore
gon, Portland, Oregon.
Canned fruit, or canned goods of any
! kind, vegetables, especially potatoes,
I provisions, poultry, and cash, in fact
! anything that can be used in ordinary
household. These things will be re
ceived and thankfully accepted.
Would like the doner to mail a postal
card to the Superintendent, care ,ol
the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society of
Oregon, Portland, Oregon, saying the
article has been sent so we will be on
the lookout for it.

OFFICIALS ARGUE
OVER LAKE LANDS
Orrgonlan: The situation at the
State Capitol became acute recently
when Attornev-licneral Crawford hurl
ed the charge in a statement to the
State Land Board that Governor West
hud been responsible for costing the
state tfO.OOO in not following the Attorney-General's
advice and the Gover
nor came back repudiating the state
ment of Crawford.
In his statement to the Board the
Attornoy-tieneral said that the Gover
nor had instructed his land agent to
make indemnity selections of school
Isnd around lakes in Lake County In
connection with a lease to a tlrm to de
velop mineral salts in the bikes and
that, as a result there was used toO.OOO
worth ot school lands to secure the
selections. He stated that he advised
the Governor and th Board to ask
Congress through the Oregon delega
tion to make a donation of these lands
and If such were done it would cost the
state nothing.
Governor West snowed correspon
dence and also copies of a Mil which
! was introduced in Congress April 2,
1912, asking for the very thing which
the Attorney-General said the Gover
nor had talied to do. The bill waa in
troduced by Senator Chamberlain on
the request of the Governor. Its pass
age was delayed because of an amend
ment which the interior Department
desired to place in the bill protecting
those who had made application tor
lands in the sections covered by the
bill.
The Governor says the bill will come
before the next Congress and prubably
be passed
"The Attorney-General should make
investigation before he promiscuously
hands out stacments sucn as he has,"
said the Governor. "It may tic easy
enough to get a bill through Congress,
hut this one has been delayed in pass
age. The bill was introduced manv
months ago without the advice or help
ot the Attorney-General, as I drafted
it myself, and now he comes in with
a suggestion that was taken up ao long
ago its history."
The Attorney-General, in making his
charges to the State Land Board rela
tive to the Gove rnor, after statirg
that he is ready to take up the cancel
lation suits in the Benson-Hyde cases
and that he has been delayed by re
cord being retained at Washington says
in psrt, as follows :
"We notice bv your communication
and inclosures above mentioned that
the matter is now wholly in the tiands
of the Attorney General and beg to
assure your Board that the case will be
promptly proseeu'ed and the land re
covered for the state if possible.
"We notice in the record transmitted
in your communication that a member
of your board, the Governor, expresses
lack of confidence in the Attorney
General. While this is a matter of
personal conscience on the part of his
excellency, we regret very much tliHt
the faith is not stronger. Hnd it been,
and the suppestions of the Attorney
Gcnernl beei. hc'ied and acted upon,
it would have suvei trie state school
fund at least 50. 000 in one transaction.
"In the latter part of Governor Ben
son's administration, the Attornej
General's Attention was called to some
Lakes in Lake county which were
caimed to contain minerlal salts of
different kinds, ard also that some of
the lands surrounding the same were
permeated with such salts. The Attorney-General
investigated the same
as far as he was able, and when the
uresent administration cxine into power
handed all the correspondence over to
the new officers with the suggestion
that ouF delegation in Congress cause
the lands and any interest the Federal
Government might have in the beds of
the lakes, towit :
"Albert and Summer Lakes in Lake
county, to be donated to the state in
lieu of the six salt springs the state
was entitled to under the enabling act
of 18.7.), tut which it did not secure for
the reason that their existence was not
at that time known and the time with
in which the state must select the same
expired.
"Instead of following this sugges
tion, the Governor caused the state land
agent to select tracts of land around
these lakes as indemnity school lands,
and made the usual application to the
Federal Land Department for patent
to the same, and then a lease waa exe
cuted with parties who proposed ex
ploiting these mineral aalta
"The school land base used in these
selections waa worth at the time over
$50,000 at the price the atate waa then
selling this class of landa. If the lands
prove to be valuable on account of
the aaits contained therein then, the
using of the S50.000 worth of school
lands to secure the same will not be a
loss to the state, but will be repaid in
royalite. If tne venture fails, tnen
it is a total Iobs to the atate, and, in
any event. Congress without doubt
would have donated these landa to the
atate in lieu ot the said salt springs,
as the land is worthless unless it doea
oontain these aalts. ,

gesting that it ia not a wisa public
NEWSY NOTES OF
THE NORTHWEST
I
There will bo keen competition be-1
twecn dairymen exhibiting stock at
the Pacific International Dairy Show
to capture the two handsome silver
cups, offered by the Northern Ps' lHoJ
and the O. W. K. A N. Co., tho former ,
for the best cow over three years old, I
any breed, and the latter for the best
senior heifer In tho show. 'Ihese cupe
are said to be wnrka of art and will
arouse much intercut.
Young men from tho Oregon Agri
cultural College will engage in an ora
torical contest at tho Paclllo North
we t Land Products Show, the subject
to be Horticultural Production of tho
Pacific Northwest. A cash price ot SI00
Is offered, A large number of the
O.A.C. student will also compete In
the apple judging contest.
Japan and China want Oregon dairy
stock for their (arming districts. Jap
anese dairymen are now negotiating
with Portland tireelt to secure stock
here and recently a high o'lcisl of the
Chli cue Department of Agriculture
left rummmlssiona in Portland for the
purchase of dairy cattle to be shipped
to that coi.ntry during the Winter.
Rrgue River apple are In demand in
far-away Copenhagen. A carload ha
been ordered from tne Rogue River
Fruit and Produce Association as a re
sult of a shipment made there last vear,
which was disposed of to Danish
Royalty.
Now that the election is over, every
sectiou of the state is reporting busi
ness gains. The effect of the balloting
was discontinued, It seems, before elec
tion day and there waa never a Presi
dential election that had such a small
effect on business as the one lust
passed.
Better roads wtll ' eventually result
for Oregon even though all that was
desired was not realized at the last
election In the way of good roads mea
sures. Some of the road bills did pass
and friends of good roads work expect
the beginning thai has been made to
result in a denfiite highway policy that
will mean permanent improvement.
GREAT CHANGE IN
DALLOT SINCE 76
There was an election in Oregon to
chooso Presidential electors on Novem
ber 7, Wid. The ballot whs 2 T-8 inches
in length bv the same in width. On
November R, 1912, there was another
presidential election in Oregon. The
tia lot was 34 inches in length by 18
inches in width. A little arithmetic
will show that it would be possible to
place W of the 1870 ballots on one of
the ballots with which the voters
struggled this election.
One of the 187C ballots is in the
possession ot John M. l.qwis. County
Treasurer, of Multnomah county is
herewith produced. Mr. l ewis was then
21 years ot age. He cast hia first vote
one ot these ballots for Hayes and
Wheeler, Republican candidates for
President ami Vice-President of the
United States. The Democrats had
separate ballots bearing the names of
their Presidential electors. At that
time state and county elections were
held in June.
Richard Williams, whose name ap
pears on, the 187d ballots aa Republican
candidate tor Repiesentative in Con
gress, beat Lafayette Lane, Democrat,
an uncle of Dr. Harry Lane, whoso
name appeared on the last ballot as the
Democratic candidate for United
States Senator. In 1K70 Oregon had
only one Representative in the lower
houso of Congress.
