Representative Schuebel In
troduces a Bill That Would
Effectively Stop The Per
ennial Lobbying Nuisance
A bombBhell wag hurled into the
camp of the lobbyists at the stuto Cap
itol today when Representative Shuo
tel, of ClackamaB1, Introduced a dras
tic antf-lobbyliiB bill, iwhlch, If t
becomes a law, will do away with all
tut legitimate lobbying before com'
mlttees. In fact, It would clean out
the state house of a hordo of lobbyists
and legislative agents, such as exists
there.
"Like many! other members I have
simply got tired of tho big bunch of
lobbyists and agents who have been
hanging around and pestering tho life
out of us since the legislative session
opened," Bald Mr. Schuebel this noon.
Whv. so bold havo some of those
men become that I have been told of
cases where they have gono to ccr-
tain interests that wanted a bill
Killed or passea ami, claiming 10 ..e
inumnie inenus oi uns or iiihi niu.i. -
foer of tho legislature, asserted that
they knew that If given $.r00 they could
got his vote as wanted. Nothing to
substantiate their claims along this
line whatever exists, excopt their
mere statement, which, to say the
least, would tend to Injure a member,
no matter how honest he is, with
those Interests.
"I believe my bill will pass, and
with a big wojsrlty; anyhow, I intend
to place every member of the house
on record in this matter."
The bill provides that all legisla
tive counsel, lobbyists) and agents
must be registered with the secretary
of state by the Individual, concern
or Interests which omployB them, and
with such registration must be stated
each bill each man Is employed to
work for or against. Further, each
counsel, agent or lobbyist must reg
ister Individually, and state what bill
he Is working for or against, and by
-whom he is employed.
It Is further provided that each
person so registered; can only work
for or against a bill In open sessions
of committees. He Is absolutely pro
hibited from lobbying on a bill at any
other time or place,
The penalty! for violation of any of
these provisions by a corporation, con
cern or Individual, or by a paid legis
lative lobbyist Is a fine of $100 to
$1000.
The bill provides for tho doing away
with promlsclous lobbying. It fixes
a fine of "from $2000 to $r.00 for any
person who lobbys, or attempts to
lobby, without having been registered,
as named above, with the secretary
of state."
The house disposed of a large
amount of business today, passing a
number of bills and killing several
others. About 30 new bills wore in
troduced, covering a wide range of
subjects.
Among the bills passed today wore
the following:

London, Jan. 30. "Turkey, if she
persists In refusal of our Just de
mands for cession of tho territory our
swords have conquered, as well as of
Adrlanoplo and the Agean Islands,
may find her Kuropenn frontier, not
at Itodoslo and Mldia, but at the Bos
phorus and the Dardanelles."
. This was the declaration, here today
of a diplomat prominent in the coun
cils of tho Balkan allies, when asked
what tho effect of tho Turkish refusal
to yield more than half of Adrlannple
to her foes would be.
"The allies," this official cnntln-.
ued, "have won practically all of
Turkey In Europe. Adrlanople must
fall In a few days before our com-
blnd assult. The Internecine strife
raging among tho Turks behind the
lines of Tchatalja must show plainly
to Shefket Pasha and his associates
In Constantinople that resistance
thcro would be hopoleBs. If the war
really ro-opens and there Is the grav
est possibility that it will there can
hardly bo a doubt In the mind of any
impartial observer that, the tottering
Turkish empire In Europe must final
ly bo extinguished."
Hostilities to Commence.
Diplomats here today generally
ngroe with tho freely-exprped opin
ions of the Balkan envoys that hostili
ties before Tchatalja will be com
menced ln earnest at once. They de
clare that the evident disruption of
the Turkish forces there will give the
Bulgarians nn opportunity for imme
diate and probably successful attack
and military obsorvors generally look
1 for a determined advance on the part
ot the allied troops upon Constantl-
noplo.
Reports aro current hero, based on
expressions of the Balkan envoys, that
the first niovo of the allies will bo an
attempt to reduce Adrlanoplo. This,
however, Is believed to be a blind nnd
tho Impression Is that the first boom,
of cannon In tho renewed struggle
will bo heard at Tchalaljaj.
The I'erto Stands Tut.
Following advices from Constanti
nople that the porte's final reply t
the allies refused all cession of the
Aegean Islands, left to the powers the
disposition of conquered territory, and
declared an unaltoralilo determination
never to cede tho Moslem Bhrlnes ot
Adrlanople, telegrams arrived hero
from a dozen sources In Bulgaria,
Servla and Grooce, declaring that the
terms' were entirely unacceptable.
The Balkan envoys, whllo continu
ing their preparations for departure,

titude la still taken for effect, and
that further concessions are likely.

cations which como from Turkey
