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.
