Cash Value For Cash Quality Merchandise xx xx XX With 48 bills on the calendar when the house convened this morning, when the noon hour struck nine had been passed, one killed and two laid on the table. S. B. No. J7ti, by Senator Lien enweber, relating to the marking of commodities packed in cartons, which had been laid on the table, was taken from the table and passed. There was little discussion on the bills as the members wished to crowd into the short space of time left as much work as possible. An important bill which received practically an unanimous vote was H. B. No. 302, which was a special order of business for 11 o'clock. This measuro was introduced by Representative Beau and it directs the county assessors to place Oregon and California grunt lauds on the tax rolls. There was no opposi tion to the measure and with the ex ception of the explanation made by the author received little comment. The bill declares the soverigutv of the state in the lands inserts forever- As the tax that would be received from these lands is much needed at this time, the counties want these lauds placed ou the tax rolls. This will briny into the treasuries of the counties the sum of $450,000 annually. The federal government has admitted the state is entitled to it, according to the explana tion of Mr. Brown. When in June, lftlli, congress passed an act revesting the lands in the government, they were Classified into three divisions: power bites, which are reversed to the govern ment forever:. timber lands, which com prises each 40 acres that has a staud.ot 300,000 feet'oljVmber; and agricultural ianils. When H. B. No. 439, bv the committee mi labor and industries, requiring signs at all railroad, crossings, was taken troni tne table and placed on tinal pass age Representative Thomas declared it was a vicious bill and drawn In the m tOfNtl of the railroads. Representative Eaton took the floor against him and stated it was a good bill and not drawn in the interests of the railroads. Ho cited the fact the because there were no signs or regulations requiring auto mobilists to stop before crossing a rail road truck 12 people had lost their lives in Oregon during the past year. This loss of life he said would have been prevented by signs such as the bill re quires. The railroad people do not ob ject to the signs, he stated. Thomas askc.l if this measure did not throw the whole burden on the municipalities in the matter of furnishing and placing the signs. Eaton replied that it apparent ly did so but that there was provisions whereby the help of the public service commission could be obtained in the matter The bill had a close call but Washington, Feb. 14. The American schooner Lyman M. Law has been sunk by a sub marine, the state department was advised this afternoon.
