section of the new act creating the
state veterinary medical board and
setting forth its powers. 1t is the act
amending a former act and fails IN
the title to specify what similar Sec
tion of the former act is intended to
be amended, which, according to the
constitution, will nullify that section
The section referred to relates to the
application for permits to practice
veterinary in oregon. The result is
that the provisions of the old law
with reference to the admission to
practice of a veterinary will prevail
for two years longer. It was not as
complete as the new law, which pre-
scribes the subjects which the appli-
cants should be examined in before
they could be permitted to practice,
and provided other reasonable regu-
lations not now required.

LYLE REAPPO|NTED
SHEEP INSPECTOR
STATE BOARD OF SHEEP
COMMISSIONERS MEET HERE
Pendleton Man Has Held Office Con-
tinuously Since Its Creation-Has
Directed Campaign for Eradicating
Scab.

DR.. W. H. Lytle of this city, state
veterinarian, was last night reap
pointed state sheep inspector by the
state board of sheep commissioners
at their annual meeting here. The
full membership OF the board, Pres
ident Charles Cleveland of Gresham,
Secretary Herbert Boylen of Pilot
Rock and H. c. Rooper of Antelope,
was in attendance. Aside from the
appointment of Lytle no action was
taken but considerable discussion on
sheep conditions was held.
DR.. Lytle has held the office of
sheep inspector ever since the crea-
ton of that office four years ago by
the legislature and it is due to his ef-
forts that the diseases which ravage
the flocks are almost entirely eradi-
Gated. In speaking of the condition
of oregon sheep this morning, he stat
ed that no cases Of scab have been re-
ported this year but that there is still
time for the dreaded disease to devel-
op. However, he does not antic.pate
any great prevalence of it and thinks
he can handle all cases easily. The
winter was not a severe one and has
left the sheep in fine condition. he
says.
DR.. Lytle also spoke of the new vet
erinary law, a section or which, ii has
just been discovered, is void stating
that provisions of the section affect
ed were not vital and that the num-
fication will not have any disastrous

EXODUS OF DUTCH.
More Than Two Hundred Farmers
sail from Amsterdam for America.

Amsterdam, March 22-Another
exodus of Dutch farmers, the third in
a month, took place today when about
250 persons boarded a liner to leave
for America, which to the Dutch ag-
riculturalist has only lately become
the land of promise. Most of r.e
emigrants are going to Iowa, where
many Dutch colonies have been high
ly successful and have spread the glad
tidings among their relatives and
friends at home. If the exodus con-
tinues at the present rate, the gov
ernment may take some action to m
duce the farmers TO remain in their
native land.
Most Of those who sail today, like
the previous parties. are well-to-do
and take enough money with them
to buy farms and begin life prosper
ously in the New World Dutch cap
ital has played a large part in the de-
velopment Of the western part Of the
United States, but the emigration to
America from Holland has been
comparatively small.

TO HECKLE TAFT.
President Will BE Grilled for Send
ing Troops 90 Border,

ing Troops 20 Border.
Washington. March 22-1wo
weeks from yesterday the sxty-sec-
ond congress will convene in extraor-
dinary session to take up the Canadian
reciprocity matter. That the solons
will not stop at that however, is GER
tain from the statements given out by
the democrats who will control the
lower house. Present indications are
that, Immediately upon the convening
of congress, a resolution will be IN
troduced which will have the effect
of putting President Taft on the grill
in regard to the sending OF troops to
the Mexican border. The president
will be called upon to make an un-
reserved statement in regard to the
matter. Certain senator's and repre-
sentatives opposing the administration
openly insinuate that the interests"
having great financial stakes in Mex
leo We're responsible for the assem-
bling of American soldiers on the
threshold of a friendly nation.
Both Speaker Clark and Chairman
Underwood of the ways and means
committee, declare, that a downward
revision of the tariff, cutting the
schedules to tariff for revenue basis
will be undertaken at the special ses-
sion. The woolen schedule, it is now
definitely known, will be the first
subjected to the cutting process. Cot
ton, steel and textile schedules will
follow. If the democrats succeed
in getting these schedules approved
by the aid of progressive republicans
in the senate, it is probable they will
wait until the regular session next
winter to tackle other schedules. She
Canadian reciprocity agreement will
almost certainly be passed by the
house as it comes from the president.
Some radical democrats want to tack
on some other tariff measure, re-
quiring the president to accept or re-
ject both, but most of the leaders OPP
pose this plan.

Mrs. Farnum Well Received.

Mrs. Marion Warde Farnum ap-
peared at the Methodist church last
night in a dramatic recital and that
her efforts pleased the audience was
attested by the enthusiastic applause
which greeted her after each num-
ber. She recited a number of very
difficult pieces and the manner in
which she ran the gamut of human
emotions stamps her as a finished
elocutionist. The affair was given
under the auspices of the Ladies Aid
society of the Methodist church.
