Academy and Imperial Reserves as a
preliminary, will be the football at

Camden is well known to the local

ball stars on the team, including

and the famous Shaw brothers.

INSURANCE BILLS
UP TO GOVERNOR

Salem, Or, Feb. 17.-Four insur-
ance bills in the series drawn or ad-
Nocated by Insurance Commissioner
Kozier were passed by the senate.
Having already passed the house, they
now go to the governor and will be
supplemented by other bills awaiting
action by the senate.
Most important of those passed is
house bill 144, by the insurance COM
mittee, regulating the rates of frator-
nal insurance companies. It requires
gradual increase in rates by COM
panies whose charges are inadequate
for security of their policy holders.
The bill is the outgrowth OF the fra
ternal congress held at Mobile, Ala,
when a bill was framed for uniform
enactment in the states. Every lodge
will pay license of s25 a year. The
bill is indorsed by the w. O. w,
Maccabees. Artisans, Workmen and
other orders.
H. B. 146, another measure passed,
strengthens the present law by insur-
ing collections of license from some
companies that now evade payment.
II. B. 49, by Clemens adopts the New
York standard form OF policy and
II. B. "a by the same representative,
brings casualty. marine and plate
glass insurance companies within the
anti-compact law.

REV. |. B. TALLMAN
NEAR GOLDEN SHORE

The sad news that his father, the
Rev. 1. B. Tallman, is fatally i'll in
Florida, was received here yesterday
by j. V. Tallman. The news came
by wire from l.. l.. Tallman who is
at present in Tacoma. The aged min
lister is suffering from dysentery and
because of his advanced years it is
feared he will be unable to recover
Rev. Tallman is in his saith year,
yet despite his advanced years has
been in very good health until the
present attack came on. Only recent
ly he returned from a trip to Europe
and went for sojourn to Florida.
He is now at st. Petersburg in that
state. owing to the distance inter-
vening it will be impossible for j. V.
Tallman or his brother to reach their
father but other members of the fam
lily living in the east are hurrying to
his bedside.
1t had been the intention of Rev
Tallman to come to Pendleton in the
spring for a visit with ]. V. Tallman
and family. Consequently the news
of his serious illness at this time has
been especially regretted.
While visiting with his son and
family in this city Rev. Tallman al
times occupied local pulpits and he
has host of friends here who are
grieved at the news of his Illness.

Roundup park presents a scene of
activity these days with thirty teams
and a small army of men at work
grading, scraping and preparing the
new track and arena for the annual
wild west exhibition. Under the SUI
pervising eye of j. p. Heine, the work
is progressing smoothly and rapidly
and the officers and directors of the
association are more than satisfied
and speak enthusiastically of the abil-
tiles of Mr.. Heine. They estimate
that at the present rate. the work
will be completed shortly after
Larch /.
The force of men and horses rs at
present engaged in filling in the
ground which is to be used as a track
with gravel which is secured from
the Roundup land next to the river
and contrary to the first expectations
it is now thought there will be enough
of this to complete the fill After the
filling is finished, a surface of dirt
will be put over the whole, this dirt
to be secured from the west end of
the tract
A half dozen more Fresno scrapers,
belonging to Frank Sloan of Stan
geld, will arrive here tomorrow,
which addition to the present equip
ment will greatly expedite the work.

COMMITTEE OF TWELVE
WATCH TAX MEASURES

Salem, Ore, Feb. 17.-In addition
to three taxation measures submitted
by the legislature to the people, 9TH
ers may originate from legislative
sources under joint resolution by
Representative Neuner, passed by
the senate. The resolution gives a
sort of blanket authority to a special
committee to frame new amendments
to be placed on the ballot in 1912.
The resolution calls for a committee
of five senators and seven represen-
tatives to prepare such measures up
on taxation as it may deem wise to
submit 1t is also charged with the
duty of preparing arguments for or
against the passage of all tax meas
ures, whether prepared by itself or
otherwise submitted, and whether or
not the measures are of county or
statewide scope.
The resolution will enable the COM
mittee appointed under it to file ar
gCments in each county where a tax
alton system is proposed under the
tax amendment adopted last Novem-
Der. Single tax ideas are expected
to be formulated for county submis-
sion in Multnomah county and per-
haps other counties, and the legisla-
tive committee will be given chance
to take a whack at this and all other
county tax experiments.
Any measures framed by the COM
mittee will have to be placed on the
ballot by initiative petition as the leg
islature cannot delegate to a COM
mittee the power it possesses of sub
mitting measures to the people.

there is a very active agricultural
club and it does some splendid work.

JOSEPH ELOQUENT ON
ANTI-SHARK BILL

Salem Or, Feb. 17.-Representa-

passed the senate. 81 to s, after a ce-
bate that rippled among the rafters.
Abraham denouncing the bill and
Joseph making a strong plea in its
favor. Abraham declared it was un-
constitutional and vicious, being an
attempt to limit the right of contract.
The bill makes Unnecessary to have
the consent of the employer before a
mans wages can be pledged for a
loan less than 5000 in amount.
Joseph told his colleagues they
would not oppose the bill If they
knew conditions in Portland, where
one firm sometimes exacts four times
the amount OF its loan to release VIC
Tins from its clutches. He declared
1t was high time something be done
