Btffl Enthusiastic Over Proposition to
Have Independent Ball Team In
Capital City.
NOT SANGUINE OVER LEAGUE
PEOSPECTS IN VALLEY
Think More Will Be Known About It
After Meeting Ib Held in Salem on
February 7.
Dr. 8. Z. Bartloy declared today that
lie had not given op the plan to organ
ize an independent ball team in Salom
thil season. He told the sporting editor
of The Capital Journal that it was not
at all certain that a league would be
organized, as discussed atf Albany, and
he taw no reason, in any event, why he
should abandon his plans.
"There are scores of Balem people
who are willing to back the independ
ent ball team proposition, and I have
sot changed my mind as to its feasi
bility," he said. "This is a good ball
town, and the' fans want a good team.
The meeting in Albany was not repre
sentative enough to accomplish any
thing and nothing can be known as to
the league outlook until the meeting
Fobruary 7. This will be held in the
commercial club rooms here, and it will
be attended by a largo Salom dologn
tion, as well as dolegatcs from Eugcno,
Albany, Woodburn and othor points, it
if expected.
"I don't want anyone to Uilnk thnt
I have abandonod my plan to organize
an independent team, for I am just as
enthusiastic as ever in regard to the
proposition."

need good roads and no mistake."
Henry Downey, farmer "By all
means. Let Marion county get in the
swim but be sure where the money goes
and see that it is all Bpent for good
roads."
James McGilchrist, businessman
"Arrange for a. liberal yearly good
roads appropriation."
Mrs. Kinney, Aurora "The plan is
all right if the people will see that
it is carried out without losing too
much money."
Eber Smith, Eosodalo " That is a
lot of money for one proposition, I
think. Let them cut down the figure
and I am with the game."
Win. McGilchrist, Sr., merchant
"Am not in favor of bonding the
county for $850,000. I am greatly in
favor of good roads, but believe the
county should set aside the interest
alone on the sum which it is proposed
to be raised and build permanent high
ways." E. C. Albin, railroad official "I
don 't believe we should boost the taxes
any more. They are high enough,
goodness knows."
Squire Johnson, real estate dealer
"Sure thing. Give us good roads and
by bonding in order to get 'em is the
only way."
Bon Robertson, Tumor "The peo
ple in Turner, including myself, are in
favor of this bonding proposition, pro
viding wo are to know just who is to
do tho work, handle the money and be
responsible in every way. TJnloss we
do know wo won't support it."
Michael Moohan, merchant, Silvorton
"All the road improvement the hot
ter, but wo should see that this money
it is proposed to expend goes in the
right places."
Babe Noodhnm, doputy sheriff "The
plan is a fino one. Wo should boost
it along and put it into action soon."
Goo. Paulis, accountant "I don't
know about this proposition. Am
doubtful of its success."
Roy Niles, merchant "Although I
am only a small tax payer, would bo
glad to do all I can for tho bonding
plan."
Judge Clcoton, Portland "If I was
a taxpayer in Marion county, I would
say ' go to it, boys.' "
Dave Drngor, accountant "I havo
not looked into tho matter vory
thoroughly, but guoes it would go all
right."
Lafo Hill, capitalist "I don't like
the scheme. I gucHS it is because I
have no automobile,"
Harry Pooler, auto merchant "If
wo woro assured we would have tho
roads, I would oven donato a littlo to
the $850,000."

good roads. Pretty big price to pay
though, without any definite plans to
show u."
B. L. Steeves, mayor "I think the
plan good, but am not in favor of
plunging in debt too far."
O. J. Mapes, merchant and farmer
"Money is money and so is good roads,
but we should first see our way to get
the former before we plan too much
on the latter." .
Albert Gilley, accountant "I don't
believe this bond matter is a good one.
Requires too much time to get rid of
the debt."
Dr. Skiff, dentist "We need the
roads, but I don't know anything about
this bonding business."
Fred Charlton, fruit grower "We
might as well start something now as
any other time."
A. N. Bush, bankei "I believe the
matter of building good roads should
be left in the hands of our county
judge. Judge Buahey is a capable man
and hag made a long and careful study
of the question of good roads. Another
thing,I am not in 'favor of creating
great indebtedness, unless some reliable
returns are assured. However, I am
heartily in favor of good roads, and I
think County Judge Bushey should have
the full say in the manner and form
in which they are to be constructed."
Ed. Croisan "You can say for me
that I think this bonding plan now be
ing proposed is a humbug. The city
already has succeeded in confiscating
the property of Salem people. Now they
are trying to confiscate tho property of
the whole county by taxation."
Ooorgo Hobson, merchant "I will
vote for the proposition, and I think it
a good plan."
Chris Faultis, capitalist "Sure. More
good roads the better. Let the bonds
go."
Dr. W. n. Byrd "I don't know much
about' the bonding plan people have
been talking about, but I am not great
ly interested."
William Thompson & Sons, merchants
"It may bo a fair and square deal to
tho taxpayers, but we don't believe it
will work out just right. Too much
money dropped at once."
E. C. Pomeroy " Well, let them try
it out. I don't know much about the
proposition, in fact."
Fred S. Bynon "It is a mighty fine
thing for everybody,"
Robort D. McKinnoy, farmer "Of
course, tho bonding plan is right. How
could wo get the money otherwise,
without dragging ourselves in debt ev
en' year I"
W. A. Irvine, business mnn "Yes, I
have a kindly feeling for the plnn, ond
I hope it is carried out successfully."
C. L. Patrick, merchant "I enn't
tell just what will happen if we go
$850,000 in debt It may be nil right,
but I am not tho one to express my
assurance."
John H. McNary,, lawyer "It might
work out nil right. I have not studied
tho matter thoroughly."
Grant Corby, lawyer "Wo need
roads, sure, but I am unable to sny
whether wo can get them by tho pro
posed bonding plan."

So far as the appointment involved
i(Mini'l nud legal advice to tho com
missioner, it may bo said that if the
officer was not well enough versed in
the law governing his position to per-
form its requirements, he cannot ex-1
pect the stuto to incur the expense of
educating him thereto, further than
may bo implied from the functions of
its regular law officers. If ho desires
independent advice he may secure it
at his own cost. He cannot, supercede
the regular officers of the state. The
terms clerk stenographers, assistants,
are not comprehensive enough to in
elude attorneys, or to work a repeal or
amendment by implication of the laws
providing legal advisers for the state
and in its interest."
Three Departments.
Tho opinion also calls attention to
the constitution providing that the
government shall be divided into three
departments, legislative, executive and
judicial, and that no person charged
with official duties within ono of these
departments shall exercise any of the
functions of the other.
In brief, the opinion holds that the
appointment was not authorized by
law, the claimant was not authorized to
accept the office, and he could not
claim pay therefor. Tho warrant of
tho secretary of state was not binding
on tho stnto treasurer, who according
to the record and showing made to the
court was Justified iu refusing to pay
i he same.
The writ was dismissed, anXthe mat
ter of every department having a
special attorney was decided finally.

DURING SCUFFLE
Frank K. Wallace, an Inmate of tho
asylum, was killed almost instantly
this morning by being hurled acci
dentally onto a block with which he
was polishing a waid floor by Olivor
Whitney, an attendant.
Wallace has been a very troublesome
patient and had had many fights with
the attendants, This morning ho wns
engaged in polishing the floors on the
day ward when Mr. Whitney npproach
oil horn mid spoke. Wallace dropped
his block and sprang upon the attend
ant. Whitney grappled with the insane
man and in attempting to hold him,
stumbled and both fell to the flor
with great force. Wallace's brenst
struck tho block and he ceased strug
gling and lay quiet face downward. .
Other attendants were attracted by
the noiso ond making an investigation
it was found that Wallace's ribs were
broken and thnt ho was in a serious
condition. Physicians examined tho
patient and discovered that ho had
sustained two fractured ribs and in
tonal injuries as tho result of falling
on the wooden block with tho attend
ant's form on top of him.
The patient lived but three hours
after tho accident.
Wallace was committed from Mult
nomah county. Ho has a wife iu Ta
