absences from school, and to one re-

was not discouraged, and he spoke
again to the boy, urging him to mend
his ways, and was answered only by
an almost sullen stolidity OF express

weeks Tim appeared with happy

.OCTACONAL BILL
WON IN HOUSE.
Speaker and Organization Score
for County School Charge
log Rolling.

st. Paul, March 23.-Lawrence H.
Johnson, speaker of the House, made
"the effort of his life'' in urging
favorable action by the House on the
bill appropriating 100000 for assist
ing in building eight county schools.
Mr.. Johnson spoke at some length
OF the wonderful progress of the agri-
cultural industries Of Denmark,
which, from condition of the deep
est depression has risen to one of the
most prosperous and progressive
agricultural countries in the world.
This had been accomplished in
almost single generation by the
comprehensive and practical system
of rural schools of Denmark. His
tour of Denmark some years ago had
been revelation to him and had so
inspired him that he took the first
opportunity to start movement for a
similar system in Minnesota.

EGGS Must be Good Ones.

Perhaps it is not generally known
that eggs come under the provisions
of the pure food law which went into
effect January 1, and it is now as
much crime to sell a rotten egg as
to sell unlabeled adulterated food. A
pure food inspector is making this
part of the state now requiring
merchants to candle all eggs sold from
their store. The worst thing to con-
tend with in the eatable line is spoiled

guise of butter-and punishment

say, shut they aren't really bad them.

worst of them, and we can usually
find it if We try" Perhaps Of all the
public men interested in the welfare
of the so-called bad boy, he has been
the most successful in finding the
good he speaks of SO optimistically.
There are cases, however, that are
battling even to his patience. One OF
these was that of a thirteen-year-old
boy who was brought into the juve-
nile court on a charge OF truancy
Tim was bright-looking little chap,
and the judge expected that his kindly
admonition would bear immediate
results, but he was disappointed; for
at the end OF the fortnight, when Tim
was ordered to bring his teachers re-

organized by Judge Lindsey, he pre-
sented sad record of almost con-
tinual absences from school.

as a representative OF Eastern Ore
gon, was unqualifiedly in favor of the
bill and hoped that 1t would pass
unanimously. Eastern Oregon, he
said, was struggling to secure an
open river to the sea, and he hoped
the time would come when every nav
igable stream in the state would be
opened up to freight traffic. and he
would vote for every measure Of the
kind within reason that came up,
Mr. Rodgers, OF Marion, then took
the floor and launched out upon g
forceful and convincing review of
the conditions existing in the valley;
the injustice of the Portland Elec-
trio Company being allowed to main
tain this commercial monopoly, and
when II had absolutely refused to
even pay the state the legal per-
centage of the net earnings OF the
locks, under the law under which the
franchise was granted for the con-
struction with state aid. During Mr..
Rodgers talk he and MIR. Campbell
locked horns good-naturedly upon
technicalities concerning the right OF
the state to regulate trafiic on nav
igable streams. He then addressed
his remarks to the Multnomah coun-
ty delegation, and particularly Far
rell, the chief opponent of the meas
ure, who stated that he had instruc-
tions from at least so of his con.
stltuents to fight this bill to stand
still, and he did not believe that II
would be of any benefit to the state
or to Multnomah county.
Mr.. Rodgers confined his remarks
to view of the situation from .
business standpoint, and warned the
Multnomah delegation that Portland
would have to look to her laurels. a'

and needs OF the territory upon
which she depends for obtaining this
exalted position In the commercial
world.
MIR. Chase, of Coos, followed In
the line OF argument presented by
Mr.. Barrett, of Umatilla, and said
that his section of the state was for
the Improvement and betterment Of
the commercial conditions of the
whole state at large, regardless Of
section. He was followed by Messrs.
Newell, of Washington. and Jackson.
of Douglas. both of whom elahorat-
ed upon the merits of the bill. and
then Mr.. Coffey, of Multnomah, took
the floor and sounded the keynote Of
harmony, by stating that he, both as
a citizen of Multnomah and as it's
representative in the legislature, was
in favor of Offering every induce
ment and encouragement for the up
building and development of the re-
sources and possibilities of the state
at large, and hoped that the measure
would pass.

the bill appealed to him as good rea-
sons for supporting and justifying
the measure. He was in favor of re-
moving the burden of the extra so
cents per ton from the shoulder of
the valley farmer to help pay his
taxes for the support of the state
government, and believed that the
gates of God should be thrown open
to the people. The valley can pro-
duce sufficient to support millions,
and 1t was high time that the em-
barge be removed. He believed the
government would respond, and in
time reimburse the state for every
cent expended in the work. "The
people should work in reciprocal har-
mony," he said. ''Do away with That
selfish policy which leglslates for one
or two sections of the state alone.
Oregon will never amount to any
thing if one county continues to fight
another, and the spirit OF sectional
antagonism is fostered In the breasts
of the legislators

Davey y<as said about lifting the en-
barge from the valley producers and
shippers, and that all should work

geographical conditions, but we are

said Mr.. Campbell, of Clackamas.
I'VE are about to enact legislation
to regulate the freight charges on
railroads, why not enact a law to
regulate the rate charges for tom
mage through the locks? If we can
regulate the railroads, why not the
canals?"
"The state has no power to regu-
late the shipping facilities on navig-
able streams" interposed Mr.. Rodg-
ers, of Marion, but Mr.. Campbell
oontended that the Willamette was
not navigable stream where the
locks are located.
IL was at this point that Mr.. Bar

for the measure. and stated that he
