HARBOR TIDE LANDS.
A PuEsiins Section Found In the Con-
stitution.

A Pussiins Section Found In the Con-
stitution.
The senate commissioners on state
tide lands and harbor lines met tonight
and cudgoled their brains about the con-
struction they should place on section 1,
article 10, of the constitution. They did
not know what to make out of II. The
section named commands the legislature
to provide for the appointment Of a
commission to locate and establish har.
bor lines In the navigable waters of all
harbors, estuaries, bays and inlets,
wherever such navigable waters lie
within or in front Of the corporate limits
Of any city or within one milo thereof on
either side. The particular portion
commissioners mi Se is; SThe piae' state shaIi sne
never give, sell or lease to any private
person, corporation or association any
rights whatever In the waters beyond
such harbor lines. Nor shall any Of the
area lying between any harbor fine and
the line OF ordinary high tide, and within
not less than fifty feet nor more than
mission shall determine, be sold or
granted by the state, nor its right to con-
troll the same relinquished; but such area
shall be forever reserved for landings
wharves, streets and other conveniences
Of navigation and commerce.
A large amount of property on Puget
Sound Is affected by this provision of
the constitution.
a Tacoma man said tonight there is
2,OO0, 900 worth of property within fifty
feet Of the harbor line of that city, an
equal amount within the SAME distance
Of the harbor line of Seattle. If the
state asserts its right to control this
property and to reserve II for the pur-.
poses Enumerated in the constitution, IL
will be lost to its present owners.

A BILL TO SUPPRESS TRUSTS

OLYMPIA, Wash, Nov. 26.-Both
houses havc taken hold Of the
work before them with vim, and but
little business has accumulated, so
really there is but little to lose by taking

The boys would return primed for

interruption until Christmas, which
would give nearly n month for hard
labor.
1t is understood to, night that a motion
to adjourn until Monday will DO made
In both houses tomorrow. IL is thought
tho senate will not object to a recess, bu,
opposition is looked for In the house.

Geoghegan's Measure Meets
With Approval.
HIS The FIRST BILL TO BECOME A LAW
A Large Appropriation for the
School of Defective Youth--Pro-
ceedings Of Both Houses.

OLYMPIA, Nov. 27.-The work Of the
legislature is at last beginning 10 bear
fruit. The house passed Its first bill at
II l:40 this morning.
1t was Geoghegan's measure appropri-
ating $4,000 for the support of the
Washington school for defective youth
for the year ending April 1, 1901. OF the
sixty.six votes cast, it received sixty
two. Herren, Spencer and Moultray
voted against It, not because they were
opposed to 1t, but because they had not
seen n printed copy ofthe bill and conse-
quently did not think they could vote
intelligently OH 1t.
A THANKSGIVING wRANoIE.
The scheme to tide over Thanksgiving
by adjourning until Monday did not
work.
The Western Washington men wanted
to go home, and they wanted to have
until Monday to do so and return. On
the other hand, the Eastern Washington
fellows live too far away and were will.
ing to stay horc. Both houses wrangled
over the adjournment proposition. They
compromised by fixing the time for re-
convening at +. NJ. Friday. ~.
The house filibustered, and filibus-
tered, and hlibusterd. and finally ad.
journed until 10 o clock Friday. When
the motion to adjourn was made in the
morning, Brown of Spokane asked II the
legislature was being run In the interest
of down sound members. If that was
the case he wanted to know what was to
become of the Eastern Washington or
phsns. The motion was voted down
80 to 81
In the afternoon the filibustering was
resumed. Half a dozen motions were
made. Part OF the members wanted to
adjourn until 10 A. NJ Friday, and the
rest until P. NJ. The anti-i0 o'clock
men were the strongest and carried the
day by a vote of 80 to II.

COMMITTEE CLERKS.
But Little Money Will he squan.
dered This Session.

The legislature is proceeding cautiously
in tho selection of committee clerks, and
will set an example that Oregon may
we'll emulate. Instead of having clerk
for each committee, as was the case in
Salem last winter, one clerk will have
to do tho work for several committees.
Clerk hire cost Oregon Sl5, 600 last ses-
sion, and the work could have been done
for half that amount. In the house the
committee on municipal corporations,
on corporations other than municipal,
on medicine and surgery and on hos.
pital for the insane were allowed clerk,
and the committee on ways and means
another.
Chairman Clcman of the committee OH
Indian affairs asked for n clerk for the
com mittecs on revenue, school for de-
fcctive youth, irrigation and Indian
affairs. He explained that the chair
men of the committees had agreed upon
Hon. John q. Boyle.
Brown of Spokane, and Eddy, both
members Of these committees, protested
against the appointment of clerks with
out the consent of the members, and
thereupon the house rejected the ap-
pointment.

A sTINGY POLICY.
Tho House Doesn't Want to Pay for
Printing tho Bills.

The house Is pursuing a very niggard-
ly policy in regard to the printing OF
bills. No bill can he printed unless or.
dered by the house. Thisis quite differ
ent from the plan Of the Oregon legisla-
ture, which prints nearly all bills, mo-
MORALS and resolutions. On the whole,
1t would seem that the Oregon custom
has many advantages and is preferable.
Printing comes high, but the cost Is
nothing compared with the trouble that
may arise from laws enacted through a
misunderstanding of their purport while
they were pending.
No member can vote intelligently on
any bill unless he has full comprehe
sion OF 1t, which he can not obtain by
of circumstanc ccs, will find it necessary to
get through in a hurry to take up the
next of the bills on his desk.
Bills not printed will naturally pro.
woke a great deal of debate, for the mem
bers are determined to vote understand
ingly, whether they get their knowledge
from printed bill, by explanation or
through debate.
II tie legislature costs the people 81 a
minute, as Gcoghegan figures II out, 1t is
easy TO see how a loss of time will como
near making large share of the cost of
printing.
The members were brought up with "a
round turn when Geoghegan's appropria-
ton bill was on its third reading this
morning. Four members voted against
il because they had not seen printed
copies of II. One Of them, Clark, de-
clnred positively that he would vote
against every appropriation bill, until
the house gets over its stingy notion of
not printing bills.
Moultray thereupon offered a resolu-
ton providing that no bill shall come up
for final passage unless 1t has been
printed.
Clark moved to amend so as make the
resolution apply 10 ali bills, and Moult-
ray accepted the change.
| Then the house became involved in
one Of its wrangles. Kuhn opposed the
motion on economical grounds. He was
I'm favor of printing the important bills,
but not every bill. Hughes and Rutter
favored the printing Of bills only after
they had been reported favorably by the
committees. Clark explained that the
motion referred only to bills which
come up for final passage. Herren's
amendment requiring the printing OF
all bills appropriating money WAS voted
down, and Hughes offered a substitute
providing for the printing of all bills
reported favorably by the committees.
| At the end of long debate the question
was laid on the table.

OLYMpIA, WASH, Nov. 5.--The legis-
laturo settled down to work In earnest
to-day and will lose but little time from,
this on. The house met at 10 A. NJ,
and the senate at /. The appointment
of the standing committees OF the senate
and the adoption of the rules of order by
the house complete the organization OF
the houses. OF course they were able to
work without these requisites, but the
legislative machinery will run smoother
with them,
Both houses held interesting sessions
to-day. The house took up the report
OF the committee on rules and acted upon
1t section by section. 1t was adopted.
Rule Is provoked considerable debate.
As reported by tho committee it was as
follows;
NO member shall speak more than
twice to the same question without
leave of the house, nor more than once
until every member, choosing to speak
shall have spoken"
Jndson OF Pierce made a strong pro-
test against putting oil debate. kuhn's
amendment was finally accepted, and
the rule now reads:
mo member shall speak more than
twice on the same question without
leave of the house, except the chairman
OF the committee or maker of the mo-
ton, who may close the debate"

PRIMARY ELECrIoNs.
A Bill which Would evolutionixs
tho Present system.

II Grants bill to guard primary cleo.
tions, which was introduced in the
house to-day, becomes q law there will
be but little interference on the part of
one political party with tho affairs Of
another. II is tho primary object Of the
bill to have republican primaries for re-
publicans, and democratic primaries for
democrats, and so OH. II authorizes tho
executive organization of any party de-
string to hold primaries to ISSUE call,
which must be published, designating
member of the party to act as in
spector, who Is empowered to open
the polls. II then dcvolves upon the as.
sembled voters to choose two Judges and
one or two clorks, who must be sworn In.
The party holding the primary is per-
mittcd to have y challenger TO challenge
all who offer votes on the usual legal
grounds and OH the additional grounds
that the voter is not entitled to vote un-
der the call. The challenger is also
vested with power to call witnesses to
dispute the statement Of the voter.
After the count Is made the
inspector is required to take charge of
the returns, and with the Judges and
clerks, or q majority of them, sign and
send them to the secretary OF the COM

FOR DEFECTIVE YOUTH.
An Institution That Will Be Literally y
Supported.

a
Representative Geoghegan, secretary
of the building commission of the
Washington school for defective youth,
located at Vancouver, to-day filed with
Governor Ferry the report Of the com
mission. The work done since the or
Ranization OF the commission ON April
%, 1883, is detailed.
The appropriation voted by the last
legislature was $50, 900, of which 500. 2l6
was paid to w. T.. Maxson on a contract
to partially complete the main building
so as TO meet the immediate require
ments OF the institution. The remainder
SssU Ct the sSS %SSnsy r wss wrsGas Gaa for
from Prof. Watson, the director Of
the schools. He hoped the legislature
would vote n sum sufficient to complete
the building for he had already granted
admission to applicants, who will, II
they present themselves this term, un-
comfortably crowd the school.
Geoghegan will offer bill asking en-
appropriation Of $4,000 to finish the
building.
The building occupies commanding
site east OF the Vancouver barracks, and
the surrounding scenery Is Of tho most
attractive character, and without doubt,
the report says, tends TO educate and
elevate the minds of the pupils who, de-
prived of speech and hearing, arc so
largely dependent on the sense OF
sight, 4
Geoghegan's bill appropriating $i2o,
090 for tho support Of the institution
was rcported favorably by the COM
I1ittec on Washington school for defec-
tive youth to-day, and was ordered en-
crossed. II stands a good show of be-
