Senator Mulkey secured the adoption by Unanimous vote of htsJoint resolu tion of the session of 1,1901. for an amendment to the constitution" , which will, enable the .Legislatures to fix 8 reasonable '-compensation .for the State Printer. The resolution jhasnow to pass the 'House, and then ' the amend ment will be ready for submission to a vote of the people at the regular elec lion in 1904. Should It be endorsed t by the" people, the legislature1 of 1905 wll,' have the power to fix the compensation of the State Printer. - , Senator Mulkey has beenj working for eight yeaTS on this effort to remedy condition which has made the State Printer's office a needless burden to the - people. s When' the resolution .came, up In the Senate-he made a clear and force ful statement of the purpose of the amendment, an J the reasons .for Its adoption. The resolution was adopted ; by both houses n the session' of 1901 It provides as follows: . "4 "That article 12. section 1, of the constitution of the state of Oregon be and the same is hereby abrogated, .a od in lieu thereof shall be inserted the fol lowing: The legislative Assembly of the state of Oregon is hereby empower ed to provide by law for the election of Slate Printer, and to provided, for his compensation. ' and to prescribe his lasers and duties." The present constitutional provision vvsts evidently framed for the particular , lenefit ojf the State Printer, rather thin for the benefit of the people of the state of", Oregon. It'provides that the " printer shall be elected by the people. tnathe shall do all the public printing. and that he shall be paid at ratea v bit-h shall not be change. 1 during the ternr. for which he shall have been "'elected. ,.i - - In speaking upon the subject in the Senate, Senator Mulkey said f hat the People and the Legislatures nave been trying for a quarter of a century to ret " rid of the burden which this section of the constitution has placed upon them. Though the methods of printing have improved and the actual cot of mint ing has been greatly reduced, no change nas ever teen made In the rates allow - ed the printer. . v To continue the present system, he sajQ. wouia De as unwise as to prwld that the Superintendent of the Insane Asylum shall furnish all the groceries, meat, fuel and clothing for that Institu tion at rates fixed a quarter of a "ten -tury ago, and which could not be chang- ed to correspond with the market price. - If the Legislature shall adopt this reso lution, and it should be endorsed by the people, a law can then be passed which will provide reasonable compensation for the State Printer, and the state can ' get its printing done at the rate which prevail In the business world. At the close of Senator Mulkey s address no other arguments were offered and no questions asked, but every Senator re corded his vote In favor of the amend ment. - Stats Board of Health, : - A bill for an act to establish a state board of health; to establish a county - board of health In each and every coun- - ty, of the state of Oregon; to provide for the election of a secretary of vital -statistics; to provide for : uniform . blanks and reports, and to assign cer : Ufa duties to the state, city and coun- ty board of health, and to provide a lenalty." , .vt--- "V-f -'.'J'- " Such Is the title, wherein is declared Its purpose, of a, bill Introduced In the Senate by Smith of Multnomah. It I provided that the state board of health shall be composed of six physicians to be appointed by the Governor, and a secretary. The appointments shall be made "with the consent of the Senate" and the six members . first ' appointed shall be so designated by the .Governor that "the term of . office Of three shall expire every two years, on the fifteenth day of January. ., Thereafter the Gov ernor, with the consent of the Senate, shall appoint three members of, the board biennially. The" secretary shall be elected by the board, which shall fix his salary and allow his expenses to an amount not to exceed $5060 a year. The members of the board shall receive no per diem or salary, "but their traveling or other expenses incurred In the trans action of official business shall be paid by the state. , To advertise State.- Kenate Bill Xo. 11. Introduced by Senator Wehrung. is a bill providing for an appropriation out of the county funds for advertising the resources thereof, and for making exhibits of the same at the county, state and district fairs. . j - - This Is the bill which has been draft? ed under the auspices of the Bureau of Information, of Portland, for the pur pose of raising funds by which certain data of each county can be collated and exhibits collected and established in the regular exposition building set apart for that pjurpose by the or. R & X. Terminal Company, of Portland. ; It provides that the county! court of each county shall be authorized to appropri ate out of the general fund of each county the sum of $100O-annually, for the printing and distributing of litera ture of all forms for the purpose of making known the various resources of such county and to make exhibits of such j resources ; at the county, district and state fairs. Inasmuch as there Is a pressing ne cessity for taking immediate steps to wards advertising .the different coun ties and state In general, the bill pro vides that it shall go- Into effect upon its approval by the Governor. Convict Work on Roads. Representative Judd proposes In a bill introduced yesterday to amend the act which provides for the use -of con vict labor in repairing and Improving Ing the roads from the penitentiary to the State Insane Asylum, to the Deaf Mute School and to the Reform School. The old act provided for the employ ment of convicts on the county road and declared that the penitentiary teams should be used. . The penitenti ary people claimed their horses were in use and as there was less than $800 in the fund, work was necessarily sus pended:. :; "f - ; ' The new bill provides that the Super intendent of the Penitentiary. Is au thorized to furnish and use such con. victs as is deemed reasonably safe for that i purpose to -do ! the work neces sary to construct the roads mentioned. He is also authorised to use the state teams under his control in doing this work, when they are not otherwise em ployed; to employ 1 a competent, road builder to superintend the work, at a rate -not to exceed $6fr a month, and to employ extra guards as necessary. Each convict -worked upon the roads shall receive a. credit upon bis time of two days for each day he works faith fully. . In addition to the S749.S3 now in the treasury, it Is proposed to appropri ate the sum of $2500. to be known as the public road fund, and in case all of this money shall have been used the Superintendent shall Immediately de sist from any additional expense. ! DEFINES COMMON DRUNK SHELLEY INTRODUCES KILL WITH . PUNISHMENT FOR OFFEXSE j L OF DRUNKENNESS. j Shelley, of ' Lane, proposes to make drunkenness or intoxication '- a misde meanor, punishable by a fine or-lm- - - ' . . i prisonment. If; a bill which was Intro-, duced by him in the House becomes a law. It is provided in the first section that It shall be unlawful for any per son to use any spirituous liquors or malt or intoxicating liquors to the ex tent of drunkenne3. Any person upon conviction of a violation of this act it reads further.! SiiaJI be punished by a fine of not less than $5 nor more than $25, or a term In the county jail of from five to fifteen days, and for each subse quent offense the fine shall not be less than $10 nor more tharr $50, or impris onment In the county jail for a period of not less than ten or .more than thirty days. " ... . j.- It is evident; however, that Mr. Shel ley believes In three times and put, as the closing section is to the effect that a person convicted of violating this act the third time shall be deemed a com mon drunkard and treated accordingly. It Is doubtfuL however, if this bill goes beyond the committee. " S Mr. Shelley explains that his . chief reason for Introducing this bill Is to de fine a common drunkard. , Municipal ties have laws against common drunk ards but they find It hard to define such a person. By the terms of the act it will be comparatively easy to do this. Another point raised by the gentleman from - Lane is that there has been all sorts of legislation against saloons, and he is now desirous of legislating against the people who go to the extreme on the other side. He Is greatly Interested fry the measure, and believes that it will to: a certain extent reform the young men of the state. : t "NOTHING SUCCCED& LIKE SUCCES3."

" 11 ' . H -a- People of Polk County Stirred Up Over Sensational ? Question ! . . DO NOT REGARD MATS LAW AS A JOKE. BUT A SERIOUS PROPO SITION THE LATE ALONZO BROWN LAID TO REST DALLAS COLLEGIAN. DALLAS, Jan. 23. (Statesman Spe cial) The Senatoriai question In Dal las is now assuming phases . of un bounded Interest. The effort, on the part of some of the legislators, to treat the Mays law as & huge Joke is no doubt arousing the Ire of some of the voters for Mr. Geer. ' They ; say: Tnat a man does not go behind closed doors to exercise as almost sacred duty and privilege as a citizen and then be told by the politicians and makers of the law that It was made for a josh. It is declared by many that, If this law is put at defiance, the Republican party In Oregon will receive such a jolt that In all probability the patient will be in jured internally, ' and surely 'be in a very precarious condition, at the next election, at which; time, some say, "that death will surely take place, and that it would be proper If it did, for a party that holds the ballot of the people so much in, contempt ought to be removed when the first opportunity is at hand. There can be no doubt of the "effect In Polk county which has only a nar row margin at best, and Mr. Geer has many friends. But the voters say that It is not a question of the champion ship of Mr. Geer. but a' very serious question of law and order, and a dan gerous precedent. - When the law makers do not obey the law, and the voters are told with a "poo-poo that they will not be heard, look out. Though this has been sounded in their ears over and over again by the press the opinion pre vails that they do not understand the temper . of the yeoman, and ; are pre suming too much on his gullibility and loyalty to party; patience with. politi cians by the voter has just now almost ceased to be a virtue,' "Was Laid to Rest.

ON MIL! - STREET, HAS NARROW ESCAPE. At 3:40 o'clock yesterday afternoon s fire alarm was turned In and the whistk was sounded with the most clearly cu and easily understood Signals whici have been blown for some time. In u few minutes the streets were filled with people and the fire frghters went dash ing up the street. The fire proved to be' a chimne: burning out In the home of M. C. Pet tys. 137 Mill street. The flue was de fective and the smoke poured out an: filled the house and alarmed the occu pants, who rushed to the electric ligh plant and caused the alarm to be sound ed. It Is well that the danger was dis covered in time or a fire would probably baveresulted,- as the defect was neat the roof.

ANKENY GAINS THREE ' INDICATIONS t POINT STRONGLY TOWARD HI S ELECTION TO . - '.THE SENATE --:h- ', OLTMPIA, Wash, Jan. 2S- Levi Ankeny gained three votes In the bal loting on United States Senator today, one of which .came from Harold Pres ton and two from John Lawson. four scattering votes went to Preston. The standing f the three candidates is now: Ankeny 55: Preston 44, Wilson 9j Six are still cattering. , This morning it seemed that a break up of the King county delegation was Inevitable and that a caucus would be held this evening resulting fn the choice of Ankeny. t Preston late this afternoon however, again got King county In line and an anti-caucus agreement has been signed by all the delegation, and It is claimed by enough members outside of the delegation to prevent a caucus for an indefinite period. ; A. caucus agreement was started in Ankenya headquarters this afternoon. and now has between fifty and sixty signers.- with- sixty-nine necessary to made the caucus effective. The fact J that the Ankeny managers are ; circu lating the caucus agreement is taken to mean that practically their full strength on the joint ballot has been disposed of and the Indications have again turned so that the fight will be protracfjed, , The changes in the vote, today afford ed a surprise for even the Ankeny men when J.,G.'

Tolonel Arthur Lynch, member of Parliament for GaJ way, was today found' guilty of high treason, and was sentenced to death. i, When the trial ' was resumed today, counsel for the defense began summing up. There was no attempt to deny that Colonel Lynch supported the Boers, but counsel contended that his naturaliza tion was In no way prompted by trea sonable Intent, and was solely for the advantage he would thus secure for oumalistic purposes. : Subsequently the defendant actively suported the Boer cause in the belief that be was s legally naturalized burgher. . Lynch throughout bore himself with unfaltering composure. He, walked out steadily between the Jailers and past the bench where his wife and other rel atives were seated.

Fulton Is not going to be United States Senator not thla time. He cannot break Into either the Geer forces or the Multnomah county delegation to an extent" to make his candidacy successful. Look j at It yourself. The Geer men cannot logic' aily leave their candidate at aill, and 'ertalniy no one of. them would be justified In doing so excepting as a last resort; and In case all went Jat once ror the purpose of securing an election The Muiinomafi delegation will not go to Mr. Fulton, and they will not likely xo to any man until their combined votes will secure that man's election The Geer forces and the Multnomah ielegation could at the present time ?et together and name the Ruiit. Hold ing thlj position, they are not going to fritter avray their strength In going by individuais to sirengthen the chances of Mr. Fulton. Individuals who did so Aould accomplish nothing, and they would weaken their position lis parts ot a strong force able to bring (definite results. There cannot be an election this week, or next 'week.' for. the reason that Mr. Geer. ran jt logically with draw, and hl$ supporters cannot desert him as long 'as there Is a chance for his election. They are com missioned by the people to stay with hlmj and he is commissioned as .the' candidate of the people for the Votes of all Repub lican members of the Legislature.
