HAY ENCOUNTERS
SOME HOSTILITY

OLYMPIA, Jan. 23.-(Special Core
spondence)-The first sign of hostility
to Lieutenant Governor Hay developed
in the senate Tuesday, when the men,
bership of the Judiciary committee
was cut down from Is to eight after the
acknowledgement had given pledge
of appointment on that committee.
The size of the committee was orig
inally fixed at II, but later the com
mittee on rules recommended that it be
increased to 49,.
When this report came up for action
Tuesday, Senator Ruth moved that
the membership be reduced to II, say
ing there were only eight lawyers in
the senate and there should be no
more than three laymen. In the dis
cussion which followed it was charged
that the proposed increase in the size
of the committee was in the interest of
certain members whose only purpose
in getting on the committee was to in
fluence certain legislation, and that
they had already been promised places
by the lieutenant governor.
Senator ROsenhaupt moved as sub
stitute' to Senator Ruths motion. that
the attorneys in the senate constitute
the judiciary committee.
Senaor Allen said that although he
was one of the members who would
lose his place on the committee, he
would support the ROsenhaupt substi-
tute as he believed there was an at
tempt to pack the COMMITTEES in the in
terest of certain measures. Senator
HuXtable. who also loses his place on
the committee, also voted for the sub
stitute. which carried
The names of the four members who
were to be given appointments have
not been announced, but it is claimed
that all of them are supporters of the
anti saloon league local option bill, one
of them being Senator Falconer. who

mantle or startling to relate-unless
one fall back upon the fiction making
methods of the resouro eful press agent.
Aside from the fact that the prima

Our insufficient zap
Because these statesmen haggle
The merry hours away?
With congress blithely passing
a batch of useful laws
And filing down the tariff
And patching up it's flaws
Will groceries be cheaper
Or easier to snatch?
Will eggs that we have counted
AS chickens duly hatch?
With statesmen in their places
Intent on doing good
And saving for their country
A handsome pile of wood
Will living any nearer
Come down within the range
Of one who does not revel
In large or lesser change?
If not, then way this fussing
