1t was authoritively reported on
the streets yesterday that tne city
council had failed to make the tax
levy for the City of CORVALLIS for the
coming year. According to law
passed a year ago, the levy for Cor
Wallis for the year of 1906 should
have been made prior to January /.
There is considerable query as to
what steps will be taken by the
council at the regular monthly
meeting next Monday evening. Il
is averied that the city cannot legal
ly proceed to collect taxes this year
If such is the case, the situation is
a hard ore.

The President of the Unitet
States has great power-greate
than that of any constitutions
monarch in the world. He com
bines in himself most of the pow
ers exercised by the King of Grea
Britain and the Prime Minister
who has the real responsibility.
The patronage at the disposal OF
the President is immense, and it is
worth good deal to a member OF
Congress to control a liberal share
of it. The objection made to the
activity of the President in trying
to control legislation is based upon
the idea that he may, if he choose,
use the patronage of his Office to
influence members of the law max
ing bodies. 1t is not necessary to
refer in detail to charges made
that Senators W no oppose tn e
Presidents policy are liable to
have their recommendations ig-
nored at the White House. The
possibility of it is admitted, and
hence the ground of criticism of
secret conferences at the White
House.
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota,
a White House Republican, in a
speech this week, deprecated the
disposition of the public press to
belittle Congress, and especially
the Senate. But" he continued,
"to suffer any other department of
the Government, directly or indi-
rectly, to delegate or absorb, in
any form or by any method, any
power or part of power vested
in Congress by the Constitution
would do us more harm and be
more baneful in its consequences
than could possibly result from
any public clamor or criticism. "
Mr.. Nelson was not then speaking
of the President, but of the courts,
whose power he desired to limit
rs much as possible so far as af
fects the rate bill. But it is plain
hat an invasion of the power
Vested in Congress is quite as much
o be feared from the Executive as
rom the judicial department, and
wen more SO. The independence
# every department should be
edulously safeguarded.

SENSITIVE SENATORS.

"The lady doth protest to,
much, methinks," was the criticism
which Hamlet's mother passed
upon the play intended to catcl
her and the King. The bearing o.
the remark upon the members o.
the United States Senate who re
sent criticism is not far to seek
The old ladies really protest toe
much.
Mr.. Dolliver, of Iowa, who is
trying to carry out the Admins
tration programme on the rate
bill, felt offended that anybody
should comment upon mot ques-
tion) his right to consult with the
President of the United States. Ii
was but natural that he should re-
call that there are more presidents
than one, and that while none is
equal in power and dignity to the
Chief Executive of the United
States, the president of a great
railroad system is a man to whom
it is often we'll worth while to lis
ten. I b temptation was too
strong to be resisted to suggest
that there is no more harm in con-
ferring with the greatest of Presi
dents than with the less potent but
still powerful presidents of rail-
roads. The suggestion was treated
as a strange offense.
Abstractly considered, it is hard
to traverse the assertion Of Mr..
Dolliver. To confer with the
President is esteemed an honor,
and it may be extremely useful.
But on the other hand, the man
who has become the chief execH.
tive officer of a great railroad is
not thereby divested of any of his
rights as citizen. 1t is not only
his privilege but his duty to con-
serve to the best of his ability the
great property entrusted to his
care. If the rights of his road
are menaced by hostile legislation
that is proposed, he is quite right
to use such legitimate means as
ire within his reach to prevent its
1t is charged, indeed,
hat the methods used are not al
ways above criticism, but it hap
pens that the same objection has
,een made against the activity of
he President in Legislation.
The President of the United
states is not part of the law
making power. He is at the head
# the executive branch, and it is a
principle which the
supreme Court has frequently
onfrmed, that the three depart
lents are to be kept free and in
ependent. But the Constitution
as given the President a certain
ontrol of legislation, in granting
le veto power, which is not abso-
tie, but forces more mature con- I
deratiOn of a measure passed ,
ithout sufficient advisement, and /,
a two thirds vote for its
lactment. Besides this the Pres :
ent's power over legislation is !;
mined to making recommends n
0ns. 1t is not a misdemeanor to r
sregard an executive recommen- n
ltion, but the President is within G
S rights when he uses all the ar h
lments at his command to inHu- h
ce Legislation along the lines s
lich he recommends. The pres r,
ent of railroad is within his i;
yhts when he presents his side of .,
Q question to Congress or any in
ner body which he desires to m
iuence. But secret conferences sc
th Legislators are looked on with =,
spicion, for then the nature of IL
offered is not matter =,

discussion is open to the public
re is no danger. The free pub - -

MRS. JOHN WORSHAM
HORRIBLY BURNED
EXPLOSION OF GASOLINE STOVE
IcNlTEs CLOTHING, WHICH is
ALMOST BURNED OFF BODY BE-
FORE BEING ExTINoUIsHED.

The explosion of gasoline stove in the
residence of John worsham at Wares
station on the North Bessemer car line
at about $50 o'clock last evening was
the direct cause of the horrible and IL is
feared fatal burning of Mr.. Worsham's
young wife.
1t is not known exactly how the acci-
dent happened, but it is supposed that
it occurred when Mrs. Worsham went in
to light the fire, preparatory to getting
the evening meal Her father-in-law was
attracted by her cries, or caught sight
of her plight and selling a table cloth,
ran after the woman, who, panic-stricken,
had dashed out of the house. When he
caught up with her her clothing was in
a full Blaze, and in attempting to extin-
guish the flames the table cloth itself
was almost destroyed. It was not unity
heavy bed clothing had been brought into
use that the flames were finally smother
ed Mrs. Worsham's clothes were prac-
tically burned off, and her body from her
neck down was terribly burned and, bis
tered Mr.. Worsham, Sr.. also had both
of his hands badly burned in his efforts to
put out the blaze
The house is situated on the section of
the line most remote from settlements
and ii took some time to summon ply
sician DR.. J. w. Barclay finally was
reached and he Immediately FASTENED to
the aid of the suffering woman SO
great was the amount of dressing re-
ouired to cover the burns that a man
who accompanied the doctor was sent
back to the city to procure more
bandages. In order to save time Conduc-
tor Gaydnor of trolley No. 205 held the
car until the necessary remedies and
bandages could be got.
Although the condition of Mrs. Wor-
sham was extremely grave at a late hour
last night and she was suffering greatly
from her burns, DR.. Barclay was not
without hope that she might ultimately
recover,

BODY MANGLED WHILE HE WAS
CROSSING FOURTEENTH ST.
TRACKS OF ALABAMA GREAT
SOUTHERN RAILROAD.

At the Fourteenth street crossing of the
Alabama Great Southern railroad City In
spector of Street Paving F. M. Houghton
was run over by switch engine early
yesterday morning and instantly killed,
The body was mangled and dragged for
some distance along the tracks The de-
ceased was 81 years old.
1t is thought that the noise deafened
that an engine was approaching. but not
hearing the warning he had nearly cross
ed the track when the engine coming at
about seven miles an hour struck him. He
was knocked down and the body cut In
two. Engineer Perry, who was running
the engine, said he could not see the man
from his side Fireman simms said he
rang the bell.
The remains were conveyed to Lige
Logs undertaking rooms. The deceased
lived at 1916 North Twenty-foufth street.
He is survived by a wife and five grown
children. The family came to Birming-
ham about four years ago from Knoxville,
Tenn. City Engineer Julian Kendrick. by
whom Mr.. Houghton was employed up to
a view months ago, is of the opinion that
the deceased was a native of New York
and that he was a Union soldier. The
funeral services over the remains will be
held at the family residence tomorrow at
2 n. m. the interment being at Elmwood
cemetery.

FATAL SHOOTING
BETWEEN NEGROES
Employe of Local Barber Shop Shoots
Another Negro and Escapes-The
Cause Of Trouble Unknown.

Last night about 10 o'clock Bonnie Ben
ford. negro, shot and killed another
negro named Richard Wolfark at 1n3
Avenue b.
1t Is said that the two men became in
volved in quarrel over some trivial mat
ter and used strong language to each 9TH
er. A woman residing in the house where
the shooting occurred attempted to part
them, but just as she appeared on the
scene Benford drew a revolver and shot
Wolfark, the bullet taking effect in the
side. The murderer then took to his heels
and had completely disappeared when an
officer reached the scene. Wolfark died
a few minutes after being shot.
The negroes were both considered to be
good characters. The one who did the
shooting is an employee of the Harris
barber shop and the other was helper
at the Louisville and Nashville shops.

POLICEMAN COLE
SLIGHTLY WOUNDED
OFFICERS RAID A NEGRO CRAP
GAME AND CAPTURE NINE.
MANY SHOTS ExcHANGED-oNE
MAN SHOT THREE TIMES.

Officer Cole shot in the hand nine ne
groes In Jail on charge of gambling and
one negro shot three times, Is the sum
total of the results of a raid on a crap
game last night.
1t is said that much complaint had re-
Gently been made in regard to gambling
going on in negro shanty near the cor
ner of Thirty-fourth street and First ave-
nue., so last night 1t was decided to raid
the place. Officers Street, Parker, Cole
and Ray were the ones detailed for the
work, and they accordingly rode to the
locality quietly on wheels. Officers Street
and Parker slipped round to the rear
of the house while Cole and Ray remained
in front.
When all was ready. one of the officers
In the rear rose on tip-toe to look into
the room. One of the participants in the
crap game which was in progress saw
him and sprang to his feet, pulling a pls-
tol and kicking out the light at the same
time. The two policemen In the rear each
fired once to Brighten the negroes, but
II seemed to have the opposite effect. for
Immediately a fusillade of shots broke
out and for some minutes a regular battle
seemed to be In progress. and it is es-
timated that at least twenty-five or thirty
shots were fired in ALL
When matters finally quieted down 1t
was found that nine out of about fifteen
negroes had been captured. and one OF the
latter had been shot three times, his in
juries being confined to flesh wounds. Of
flcer Cole was shot in the hand, receiv-
ing painful wound. 1t is thought that
the negro who was wounded owes 1t to
the poor aim of some of his friends In
the darkness.
No charge except that of gambling was
registered against any of the men lodged
in Jail, as 1t was impossible to tell which
had done the shooting.
