Of data TO be furnished by the engi-
neer, contour maps not having been

that the committee will approve the
Bowerman site, but recommend the

Pure Water Demanded.
II the concurrent resolution intro
duced yesterday afternoon by Brown
hill should pass, 1t I'd said, there will
be trouble ahead for few alleged OBJ
structionists in the city council of Sa-
lem, who are charged with having de-
feated all efforts of the people TO get
a supply of pure water for the city

Gated here.
The resolution provides tina; the

tice Of the procedure followed by the
city OF Salem and the state govern
ment, and II possible onGeavor TO fix
the responsibility for the failure to
supply pure water. in order that the
legislature may be able to handle the
subject intelligently. There rs an i'm
piled threat in the resolution that un-
I,,n ha n
near future the appropriations asked
on behalf OF Salem Institutions for the
next biennial period will suffer.
In his annual message Governor
West recommended that state officials

crate with the city in procuring a
bountiful supply Of pure water. He Is
said now to be preparing a bill for
submission to the legislature, giving
officials authority to employ con-
vets In the construction of pipe line.
Sunday Rest Bill Opposed.
Among the strongest opponents Of
the Sunday rest bill introduced by
Representative Cottell are the Seven
Day Adventists, who are unalterably
against any legislation whatever of a
religious nature. Elder w +. Martin
of Portland, who has peen in Salem
two or three times in expectation of
such a bill, canvassed the situation
In the house yesterday afternoon and
appeared we'll satisfied with the out
look 1t Is said that the bill will be
reported adversely by the committee
to which It has been referred.
II dislike anything that savors of
religious legislation" said Represen-
tative Neuner, member or the conn
mlttee, land there will be no need of
the Seventh Day AdventIsts or any
body else doing any missionary work
on me. I think the other members of
the committee will look on it in the
same light"

SELLING REPLIES TO
DIMICK'S CONUNDRUM

Salem, Ore. Feb. 4.-"How can a
railroad publish a time table in a
newspaper in a town where no news
paper is published" was a query pro-
pounded in the senate yesterday by
Dimick of Clackamas.
Quick as a flash came the answer
from President Selling:
where there is no newspaper the
time table will not be published. That
answers itself"
The answer to the conundrum was
given when senator Albee's bill re-
Quiring railroads to ublish time
tahlNs came up for passage.
Alhee explained that railroads for
some reason unknawn to him have
quit publishing the time of arrival
and departure of trains and he has
found this a nuisance, for the tele-
phone is too often busy and not every
person has a telephone. The bill was
passed without opposition.

HANDLESS MAN AS
LIVING TESTIMONY

Portland, Ore, Feb. 4.-Robert e.
Roland of this city, handless and de-
pendent, rendered so by an accident
in the West Side Lumber & Shingle
company last April, appeared before
the voluntary committee which is
fighting for the cause or the injured
workman by the adoption of a work
mans optional compensation act by
the legislature, and offered to go be-
fore the judiciary committee when
the advocates of the Abbott bill are
given a hearing Monday night, and
exhibit himself as a victim of the
present system of recovering person
al injury damages.
Mr.. Roland said today: "If I were
soldier injured as I am. 1 would
be receiving pension of SIS per
month. I was injured in the indus
trial battle and lost my case in court.
now find myself wholly dependent
on others at the age or As. with a
wife and three children whom I am
unable to support. I desire to do my
part toward convincing the people of
Oregon that without a just compen-
sation act, any law, however drastic.
is unjust and upspeakably cruel. In
jured laboring meen need instant re-
lief at the time of injury"
A coincidence of Mr.. Roland's APP
pearance before the committee is that
while there he met Frank c. Young,
manager of the West Side Lumber &
Shingle company, against whom he
lost his suit when injured. Mr.. Young
Is now one OF the most aggressive
fighters for the adoption of the com
pensation act.
