SERVICE HOUSE PASSES THE (Continued from Page I.) Senator Cummins asked: "Does the section which imposes a penalty on all who delay or obstruct (operation of trains apply to an employe who refuses to move a train1)" I "It is meant merely to keep the arter ies of trade open nnd to prevent any one I wilfully closing them," replied New j lands. I Senator Reed joined Cummins in an j attack on the penalty section. He got Senator Newlands to admit that that I section and the one which gives the interRtnto commerce eommisison power to fix wage rates nnd hours o'f Inbor ! were put in the bill by the committee ; and not in any way suggested by the (president. Reed declared the penalty ! section virtually means abrogation of me rignt to strike and involuntarily I servitude for the employes although . Xfwlands insisted it was not so meant. ! An amendment by Representative I Sterling, Illinois, proposing that com ipulsory investigation be included in the f Adumson measure was overruled as ir j relevant. Sterling then offered a motion to re commit the bill with instructions to in clude such a plan. Mexican Government to Control Churches Mexico City, Sept. 1. Oen Car ranza in a decree made public today announced the nationalization of prop erty of tho Catholic church in Mexico. The churches will be nominally con trolled by the clergy. The government, however, reserves. the right to police them aiid prevent them from being used for any purposes other than pre scribed by law. The government also reserves the right to discontinue their use as a place of worship after one yvar service. In taking this step, the first chief declared he was only reviving the de cree promulgated in 1S.19, The new order involves all properties national ized under the Juarez treaty, and loaned to religious bodies or ceded af ter the promulgation of the decree. The department of finance will take charge of the property and see that it is cared for. The department of tiobcriiaeion will control the opening of new churches. Only the chief executive of the re public is empowered by the decree to use Catholic property for any public service. This provision was made to prevent local municipal offices from invading church property. Tho local municipal authorities are warned not to transgress. AH Around Town . 11 COMING EVENTS September 4.

The lodge holds nn annual meeting in which nil lodges of Marion county join, and this year, Gcrvuis was selected ns the meet ing piace. About 1000 quarts of booze were shipped into Sulem during the mouth of August, or to be exact, OSS quarts by the two express companies besides what may have been shipped in by freight. Those who receive theirs by freight prefer the kind that is flavored with hops. This is a little less than the lamount shipped in last July. Standard brands of whiskey are still the favorites and in fact, those who are still wedded to the bottle wont have anything else. Wines may be all right for California drinkers, but not for those in Oregon. inncsssanQ&saBni A Full SuddIv of Extra n " Choice Beef at the fol- Si Mi n in SS lowing Special Prices If II II II ii Choice Beef to Boil n ti ii E3 II II II 8c per Lb.
