HOME
FOR THE
FALLEN
Eloquent Speeches Made in
the House Thursday

The bill for the support of homes for
fallen women at the rate of $500 per
month was up for final passage Thurs
day. This was the Malarkey bill to
which Rev. Selleck made strenuous OBJ
jections before the committee.
Vawter of Jackson, as chairman of
the, ways and means committee, made
an exhausted statement of the CON
clusions of his committee in relation
to this measure. He said the cost of
maintaining women in this home was
much less than at the Florence Critten-
den home, or for keeping boys at the
state reform school. The Magdalen
home for fallen women would come
under it's provisions.
Steiner of Lake and Klamath made
the ablest speech of the session at his
hands for the bill. He said the ar
gument that because the Magdalen
home near Oregon City would get the
benefit of this was the argument of
intolerance and should not prevail He
was surprised at Salem minister op-
posing the bill. Such Christianity at
the gates of heaven stood no more show
than a SNOWFALL in the other place.
Mcleod also spoke eloquently for the
bill.
Mr.. Capron said he was a member
of Rev. Selleck's church, but he was
not going to agree with him on this
matter. He did not see how Christian
minister could bring himself to oppose
any step toward the saving of way
ward girls. Yeas so, noes Z, absent 3.
The noes were Calvert, Lavender, Cor
nett, Fawk, Flint, Munkers and Wen.
Absent, Burns of Coos, Hudson and
Jayne.

ASTORIA
CHARTER
KILLED
Veto of The Governor
Was Sustained
in House
Thirteen Republicans Cat
Their Ballots With The
Democrats

The Astoria charter bill veto was
special order at p m. THURSDAY. Mr.
Vawter moved a call of the house
Laws said it was useless to thresh over
old straw. The sergeant at arms who
had refused to deliver the bills after
they were printed. That man was in
the hospital. He read letter from S.
s. Gordon, saying the commission on
streets under this had power to expend
money without the consent of the coun-
ell. He said Republican members were
being driven like sheep to override this
veto.
Burns (of Coos), made the speech of
the occasion, reading letters from AS
toria people who opposed the charter.
Jaggers, of the committee on cities
and towns said two charters had been
submitted to his committe. They had
asked legal advice on this charter now
vetoed. 1t had been declared sound.
The present fire and police board were
declared rotten as politics goes. No
objection had been raised against the
men named in the charter. He was not
lined up by any machine and no mis-
take could be made by putting in Re-
publicans when present conditions were
rotten.
Jayne said it was a race between
Astoria Republicans and Democrats as
to which would win out. He did not
believe in Republicans supporting a
Democratic machine. He did not know
as there was a machine in this state
outside of Portland. (Laughter.) The
Mayor of Astoria was elected as Re
publican, but had undergone change
of heart and was acting with the Dem
ocrats and asking the Governor to
veto this charter. The veto was for
political purposes and Republicans
should act accordingly.
Burns (of Clatsop), defended the
mayor of Astoria. He had been EN-
ployed by the Republican county court
TO build the court house at So day,7
and to build the city hall at So day.
1t was his first speech and made an
impression. In the course of his re-
marks he said good Astoria had spent
$4,000 on street improvements the
past year.

A GREAT
MEDICINE
BRINGS HEALTH TO THRER
MEMBERS OF SAME FAMILY.
Cures wife's Debility After Malaria,
husbands Rheumatism, Daugh-
ter's Nervous Prostration.

The claim of DR.. williams Pink Pills
to be a genuine household remedy is
based on, the fact that they make the
blood sound and the nerves strong and
so overcome a variety of diseases.
81 have recommended DR.. Williams
Pink Pills to many people. +" said Mrs,
Gossett, "because 1 have seen such
good results, time after time, right in
my own family. There are three of us
who do not need to take anybody's
word on the subject, for our own ex-
perience in the past ten years has
taught us how well they deserve the
praise given them by so many others.
''lt was just about ten years ago
that 1 first read about DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, in newspaper article which
gave the testimony of some woman
who had been cured by them. Her
symptoms were so much like mine that
L thought 1 would try them, and 1
then bought my first box.
81 was at that time all run down
in health, l was weak and nervous and
without ambition. 1 couldn't walk
any distance on account of shortness
of breath and palpitation of my heart,
and had no appetite. I had been
doctoring all summer for malaria and
stomach trouble, Everybody thought
l was going into consumption, as my
mother had died of that disease.
"Thanks to DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, l am now alive and hearty.
began to improve as soon as 1 began
to take them. The first box reused
up my appetite, so l got three more
boxes, and when those had been takon
| was a well woman. 1 always take
few as a tonic every spring and
fall and l have found them of great
benefit just before and after confne-
ment. Everyone wonders how 1 keep
so well and am able to care for my
home and six children without help.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills explain it.
"My oldest daughters health be-
gan to fail when she was about four
teen, as the result of too close appli-
cation to her school work. She was
nervous, complained of sharp pains in
her head, would get deathly sick and
have to leave the school room to get
fresh air to revive her. gave some
pills to her. She took only a few
boxes, but they cured her trouble and
caused her to develop into a perfect
picture of health. Then my husband
took them for rheumatism and found
that they would cure that, too. SO
you see We have all got great good
from using them and that is why we
recommend them to others"
Mrs. Minnie b. Gossett lives Mt
Urichsville. Tuscarawas Co., Ohio, and
is well known, as she has resided in
the same neighborhood for more than
thirteen years. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills are sold by all druggists every
where. They have cured other diseases
also, such as anaemia, neuralgia, par
tial paralysis, Irregularities and all
forms of weakness in women. They
have also cured the most stubborn
cases of dyspepsia. They agree with
the most delicate stomachs and rapidly /
strengthen them. They are indispen-
sible for growing girls

TIED THE PROPRIETOR.
Thieves Then Loot a Drug store Of
Nearly $500.

Kansas City. June with the
proprietor tied to a post in the eel
lar, and the cash register, the safe,
and other valuables at their mercy,
thieves looted the Bonaventure drug
store, Independence and Park ave
nues, this morning shortly after u
o'clock. taking over 5000 from the
safe, about SIS from the cash reg
lister, d SIS gold watch and a pocket
book containing SIS from the pro-
prietor, Louis Beck, and made their
escape.
The work was done so quickly and
quietly that no one in the vicinity
knew there was anything wrong.
Even a customer. who happened to
drop into the store while the men
were at work in the cellar, saw them
coming out and suspected nothing
wrong at all until the proprietor APP
peared from the cellar with his hands
tied behind him. Neither of the men
wore anything over his face, yet they
were perfect strangers to the pro-
prietor and the customer Both were
white, one a large man, heavy set,
and the other a small slender one.

WHEAT-The weakness in the wheat
market during the past two days has been
based entirely on the belief that there will
be great rush of new wheat as soon as
it is ready for the market It IS reported
from to 4 cents over the Kansas CITY
July price, deliverable from June 10 to Ju-
" Is. 1t is a fact, however, that no great
amount of new wheat has been sold TOR
such a big discount under the prevailing
price of cash wheat. There always comes
times in the market when everything looks
sick and every body is bearish, but there
never has been time when the scene old
not change and very suddenly, especially
when conditions are like those that exist
at the present time. 1t does not seem from ON
reports coming in from different parts OF
the winter wheat country that the 1919
crop VIII be much, i any, larger than Tue
crop of 1901 The Kentucky state report
issued at Frankfort today, makes the con-
ditiOn OF the winter wheat at IS Der cent,
against 90 per cent last month, and 81 per
cent one year ago. Other winter wheat
states, it is said, will also show marked
decline from that reported one month ago
It is question IN my mind whether the
farmer will sell his wheat freely on the
basis of the present September option and
take from . to 50 cents 4 busnef less than
he received last year. The farmer these
days is complete master of the situation
he IS pretty good merchant nlTnselI alld
in his present financial condition don
believe he will be in a great hurry to mar
ket his wheat at a comparatively low
price. "A Chicago broker says: Liverpool
prices are 10 cents over Chicago prices To-

settlement. Baron KanekO said Japan
had not received, directly or indirectly
any request from Russia for a state
ment of peace terms. It was intimated
that Japan would be Ioath to give any
such statement until convinced that
Russia was prepared to take UP the
question of peace with the intention OF
ending the war
Sir Mortimer Durand, the British am
basSadOr saw the president and Baron
Speck Won Sternberg, the German am
bassadOr, was at the White House for
nearly an hour. None of the callers
would discuss their visits. 1t is not
expected the situation will change radi-
cally in the next day or two. Until
some indication comes from Japan of
her attitude in the light of the spirit
shown by the car the negotiations can
hardly be expected TO progress. Mean
while powerful through friendly inffu-
ence is being brought to bear on Japan
for moderate terms. 1t has been said
Japan and Russia must always be
close neighbOrs and that if Japan is
unreasonable now in her great triumph
she might again be involved in war
with Russia. What effect these repre-
sensations may have on the Mikado is
of course only cOnjectural. Strong
hopes were entertained here in the
highest circles that London could be
relied on for active assistance in coun-
selling moderation to Japan. These
hopes have not yet been realized, al
though information has been received
that Britain will welcome peace. It is
stin hoped, however, that some assist
ance from that quarter may yet be
, forthcoming. Berlin and Paris are both
giving loyal assistance to the efforts
initiated in Washington and the result
of Berlin activity is already being felt.
Further instructions have been sent to
Ambassador Meyer at St. Petersburg
but their character is not known.
Count Cassini, the Russian ambas-

ton regarding the cablegrams that
have reached the embassy from St. Pc

which, in our judgment VIII result IN
great benefit to our state ana people

Cient and untiring efforts in behaif OF
said legislation.
Resolved, That We deplore the rail-
ure of the legislature to enact an

by again urge the passage OF such
law at the next session of our leglsia-
ture, and in support of our poslloh we
respectfully submit that our present
mortgage law, while it affords protec-
ton to the farming class, has exactly
the opposite effect upon our growing
cities and towns, by making 1t next 10
impossible for laboring men, me-
chanies and others of limited means
to purchase or erect homes upon ia
vorabIe terms.
We further call attention to the
large increase in this class OF our pop
ulauon as a result of the establish
ment of manufactures in all our
larger cities, and urge the supple
menting of our present mortgage law
with deed of trust law, to the end
that all classes of our people may be
enabled to procure homes upon as
favorable terms as are offered IN other
progressive states.
Resolved, That a committee of three
be appointed by the incoming presi-
dent of the association, with instruc-
tions to prepare and submit TO the

alton and recommendation to the next
annual convention of the association,

interesting and instructive and pa
triotic address
