States Engineer d. b. Ogden to ap
pear before the house and give esti-
mates upon the probable cost. Mr..
ogden did not come, however.
Another long-winded and spirited
debate arose over the question of the
final passage of the bill introduced
by Mr.. Dye, of Clackamas, requiring
urban and interurban electric rail-
way companies to furnish seats to
passengers or refund one-half the
amount of fare in case the passenger
is obliged to stand up. Some con-
structive defects were discovered in
the bill, which, after several futile
attempts to re-refer to divers COM
mittees, were finally corrected by the
house, and. after almost an hours
time had been wasted in general de-
bate and all sorts of dilatory tactics,
representative Pike, of Gillian, Sher-
man and Wheeler, quietly arose and
informed the house that the bill had
no enacting clause and was there
fore defective and the only thing
that could be done under the circum-
stances was to re-refer It for correc-
tion, which was done.
The Street Car Bill.

was in the case of another bill in
troduced by Mr.. Dye, by request,
which had for its purpose the crea-
tion of a state board of charities and
corrections and this one. which is
the pet measure of Mrs. Mile Trum-
bull and Mrs. Lola Baldwin. promi-

worse fate than did Mr.. Dyes car

of six members to serve a term OF
six years each was to be appointed |
and no sooner had the discussion be-
gun TO show the least sign of warmth
when Representative Coffey dealt IL
a body blow by calling attention to
the constitutional qualifications
which provides that no appointive
office shall extend over a period of
four years. and that settled II.
The bills that were passed were:
That OF Representative McCue, of |
providing for an additional I
clerk for the master fish warden and !
an appropriation OF $1,000 extra for !
the conduct of his department; an
