it is fimired that after 100 visitors
havo occupied chairs in tho house,
about all the good air in circulation
will bo in use. Hence tho committee
appointed to mako a report on health
conditions have decided that after the
100 limit of visitors are comfortably
seated, that tho sergeant of arms shall
take note of the situation and keep
the number down to an even hundred.
That is, as far as the laws of Oregon
will permit, as it is specifically stated
that tho house a well as tha senate is

denied admittance during mnwiuus. "
health committee also suggested that

With ori inch of rainfall for the 24
hours ending at 8 o'clock this morn
ing, the total rainfall since the rains
began Jan. 15 is 7.71 inches. Since
Wednesday morning the- river has risen
2.6 feet which indicates that an enor
mous volume of water is coming down
the Willamette considering the low
lands the water had to cover to rise to
the guage of 20 feet. There is some
satisfaction. Astoria had six inches of
rain while Salem was getting the one
inch for the 24 hours preceding 8
o'clock this morning.
As chairman of the insurance com
mittee for the house, Ivan G. Martin
has introduced a bill raising the sal
ary of the insurance commissioner,
Harvey Wells. The present salary is
$3000 a year and the bill provides that
the commissioner ibe given a raise or
$100 a month, making the job pay
$4200 a year. Justices of the supreme.
court of Oregon are paid $4o00, the
secretary of state and state treasurer
$4500 and the attorney general for the.
state $3600.

Mrs. Alexander Thompson, the only
woman in the house of representatives,
and a democrat, introduced her first
bill an the house yesterday. It provides
that even if a woman ig married oerore
she is 18, regarded as legal age, she is
still in the eyes of the law a minor ano
subject to the laws regarding minors.
As the law now stands, if a woman is
married before she is 18, the marriage
practically makes her of legal age aud
she is not then subject to the laws re
garding minors. ,
o
Mrs. Catherine Hewlett of Salem is
especially interested in a bill before
the house of representatives providing
that all persons who have served in

is past state president of Hal Hibbard

Of Representatives t
The house is in favor of the bill now
before the V. S. congress regarding the
treatment of returning soldiers and
sailors. The bill provides that each sol
dier shall be given six months regular
pay upon his discharge and a suit of
civilian clothes. The house passed &
memorial to eongress recommending the
passing of the bill.
The bi(l before the house providing
that with the exception of foreign lan
guages, all subjects taught in the pub
lic schools must be taught in the Eng
lish language, stands fine chance of
passing the house. The committee to
which it was referred reported favor
ably. The bill would make it unlaw
ful for the German language or any
other foreign language to be used in
the general teaching of subjects.
A bill was introduced by Smith of
Baker raising the salary of the state
superintendent of schools. The present
salary of Mr. Churchill is $3000 and the
bill asks that it be increased to $4500,
making the office pay along with su
preme judges, secretary of state or
state treasurer.
If the legislature is willing, many of
ficials now holding office will find
themselves drawing higher psy. Thero
is one bill before the house providing
that judges of the supreme court be
Daid $6000 a year. Another that the in
surance commissioner De raised irom
$3000 to $4200 and the bill introduced
today providing that the salary of the
state superintendent be raised irom
$3000 to $4500.
Representative Dodd of Hermiston is
not auite satisfied with the present law
by which school teachers may get out of
j.their contract to teach the following
year by giving notice 30 days before
tho first day of school. Ho introduced
a bill this morning making it illegal for
0' school teacher to jump his or her con
tract within 90 days before the first
day of the school year. If his bill should
bocomo a law, no teacher could be look
ing for another job during the summer
aftor having signed ono contract.
Representative McFartend of Port
land -has presented a bill solving the
problem of permitting boxing exhibi
tions in Oregon. In order that thero
may not be so much opposition to ex
hibitions of tho manly sport, he pro
poses in a bill that a boxing commis
sion be created. Wherever a boxing
mr.tch is to be pulled off, ho figures
that the net proceeds theroof should be
placed into a fund to be used by the
city for its indigent or for charitable
purposes.
Mr. Thrift of Coos county, city of
Coquillo. has introduced a bill provid
ing that in the offering of a bounty
for seal pups, the snme is not to in
elude sea lions.
Mrs. Alexander Thompson of The
Dulles is naturally interested in school
teachers as about 75 per cent of thom
ai'o women. She introduced a bill this
mornine providing that $75 a month be
the minimum salary which school di
rectors may pay teachers in the state
of Oregon. And if any sehool directors
should overlook tho bill and engage a
teacher at a lower salary, tho county
superintendent is empowered to bring
the directors to account.

In a paragraph printed yesterday,
intended to show tho falling off of the
death rate in and about Salem, an er

the local undertakers were entirely out

ing the case. What was intended was
the statement that no new cases of
death were on the undertakers books
at that hour, though it was true that
several bodies were still being ncld at
