OREGON HOP
GROWERS

SALEM, Ore, FEB. 3.-In the
senate resolution was adopted to
adjourn February IL. This action
may result in defeating much leg
islation and will probably be re-
sisted in the house. resent indi-
cations are that the legislature
will sit the full forty days under
the constitution and will adjourn
February 90.
The Farrell bill requiring doors
of all buildings used for public
purposes to swing outward, passed
the house. Also the Dodds bill to
permit the railroad commission or
its employees to ride on any train,
car or engine of any railroad in
the state went through the house.
Both these bills must still run the
gauntlet of the senate.
The house bill by McCue to per-
NIT a separate vote under the local
option law ON permitting the sale
of either beer or whisky, after an
extended hearing before the COM
mittee, will have q favorable re-
port from the majority.
This is the measure introd uced
by the Oregon hop growers to
save their industry. They claim
that under its OF Grafton, many
precincts now wet would vote to
shut out whisky but permit the
sale OF. malt beverages.

He paints his pictures with a coarse

scarlet woman, in all their besitiality

tuned to misery he quotes the crippled
son of the drunkard or mimics his plea

OLYMPIA, Feb. 3.-Billy Sunday
came, talked and conquered. I saw one
thousand men, packed to suffocation In
a vitiated atmosphere, jump to their feet
cheer and scream in the poignancy or
their emotions, as Billy Sunday, like q
Paderweiski or a Kubelik played on
them with master hand.
If Billy Sunday had been before the
legislature making the closing speech
for the local option bill, and the vote
taken as he concluded his strong hyp-
motto mixture Of prayer. acrobatic tum-
bling, exhortation and TRADE, the local
option bill would have become law by
an overwhelming majority. He would
have swept all opposition before him by
his cyclcnic appeal. So intense is his
emotion, SO mighty his struggle with
word and gesture to express 1t, that cos
mic metaphor is not i'll placed in describ-
ing him.
I knew Of Billy Sunday q score OF
years back. Shrined in my imagination
he was a hero who shone with just q
mite less brilliancy than old King Kelly,
the king who died q drunkard. And
when the news came that Billy Sunday
had Quilted the essential and all Inn

FOR THE
BILL
HOUSE REFUSES TO CONCUR
AFTER DRASTIC CLAUSE Is
CUT OUT AND EFFECTIVE
MEASURE MAY YET BIN
PASSED.
(Times Special Service.)

OLYMPIA, Feb. Sole Ham
sons racetrack bill, minus tho
emergency clause, was passed by
the senate this morning by a vote
Of Al to o.
The emergency clause provides
that the measure shall become eff
fective Immediately upon its being
signed by the governor and 1t has
been on this point that the op-
ponents of the bill have made
their strongest fight. The inten-
ton of the clause Is to prohibit
racetrack gambling at the Mead
ows next summer during the ex-
position.
House Refuses to Concur.
The bill was Immediately sent
to the house with a notice that
the emergency clause had been
stricken out, but the house re-
fused to concur in the change and
sent the bill back to the senate
with a notice to this effect.
The fight in the senate this
morning was all confined to the
emergency clause.
Knickerbocker of King attempts
ed to amend the emergency clause
SO that the law would go into ef-
feet on May 1, 1909. The bill
with this amendment. was passed,
but again reconsidered and the
emergency clause was stricken
out entirely.
| When notice of the house that
1t would not concur in the change
was received, Senator Cotterill Of
King made a motion for the ap-
pointment of a conference COM
mittee. Senator Graves took the
stand that inasmuch as the bill
was not amended, there was no
reason for the appointment of
such committee.
After a long debate President
Ruth decided that the striking
out of the emergency clause was
not an amendment to the bill, and
therefore left no opportunity for .
conference committee. However,
he informed Senator Cotterill that
he would look the matter up more
closely during recess today and It
is possible that he may change his
ruling this afternoon.
Speaker Meigs, Immediately
after convening the house this
morning announced the appoint
ment of Representatives Sims.
Taylor, Cogswell and Spedden to
the appropriations committee.
This appointment breaks up the
plan to make this committee wet
and the committee will now main
tain its relative apportionment OF
moisture-as the drys will still
have a small majority.

charges of grand larceny commit

Jealous Girl Drinks
Poison At Mothers
Wedding

CINCINNATI, o., Feb. 3.-In
the presence of number of guests
who had gathered in honor of
the wedding of her mother, Miss
Lena Kobe, 10, drank a quantity
of carbolic acid in an effort to
end her life.
Don't send for a DOCTOR" she
cried, when a messenger was dis
patched for a physician. "There
is no longer any reason to live and
I want to die." The girl decided
to end her life when she learned
that her mother, Mrs. John Kobe,
who conducts saloon at Fifth
street and Eggleston avenue, had
married her bartender, Charles
Howden.
The daughter, during the two
years which Howden had served
for her mother, had grown to love
him and it is said that Howden
and she had been engaged to be
married.
Told No One.
Mrs. Kobe said nothing to her
children when she decided to wed
and slipped away with Howden.
1t was not until she returned
home and announced that the we'd
ding had already been performed
that anybody knew of her inten-
tions.
The daughter received the news
without word, but went quietly
to a medicine chest and secured
a bottle, which contained some
carbolic acid.
Before anybody could stay her
hand she had swallowed the dead
ly drug.
