An attempt to extend the legislative
program of the Democratic majority
in the house at this session of con-
gress failed completely at a caucus
of the Democratic representatives. The
result is a reinforced determination OF
the Democrats to confine their legisn
lative efforts at this session to tho
tariff.
Representative Victor L. Berger OF
Wisconsin, Socialist, spoke against
the Underwood wool tariff bill in the
house of representatives. He de-
nounced all forms of tariff as inimicsl
to labor, but did not advocate the I'M
mediate abolition of the taxing system
because, he said, labor could not with
stand the sudden change.
Secretary Knox made clear to the
Hamlin committee at Washington that
the scandals which have been turned

ters of past administrations which
properly cannot be laid at his door.

tracted for, and the affair of the Ros-
enthal portrait was traced to the ad-

witness, the supreme court this fore
noon reversed the decision of the cir
cult court of Multnomah county in
the case of the state against Emma
Crawford, convicted of the crime of
larceny from the person and SEN
fenced to serve two years in the state
prison.
The state law provides that for
the purpose of impeaching a wit
ness contradictory statements may
be introduced, and also convictions
of crimes. The state in the case en-
deavOred to impeach the testimony of
the defendant by showing she had
been convicted Of disorderly conduct
and of visiting opium joints, both be-
ing crimes under the city ordinance
The supreme court held that the con-
viction must be of a crime under the
general law, and not under an ordi-
nance of local application, to be ad-
missable in evidence.
Three Other Cases Decided.
In the case of A. w. Anthony
against the Hillsboro Mining Com
pany, respondents, the judgment of

The FRIENDS
ADVOCATES
OF PEACE
PASS RESOLUTIONS ASKING THAT
THE PANAMA CANAL BE NOT
FORTIFIED AND ADVOCATING
UNIVERSAL PEACE.

At the Salem Quarterly meeting
business SESSION. of the Friends
church held last Saturday, the 18th,
at Salem, Rev. John F. Hanson, of
Portland, introduced the subject of
national and international peace by
offering the following resolution.
"As members of the Friends church
we protest against the proposed ex-
penditure of the public funds for
warlike preparations. And in par
ticular we protest against the use of
such funds for fertilization of the
Panama Canal, and we urge the gov
ernment of the United States through
our representatives in congress to
procure by international agreement
the naturalization of the whole Canal
Zone"
And said in part that war might be
prevented by disarmament easier
than with armies and navies. This,
he said, had been proven by our re-
lations with Canada. And the three
fold tie of commerce, religion, and
scientific development between this
country and Japan, and China is a
much surer grounds for peace than
any Notifications could be.
The Friends church throughout
civilized nations has always had
much to do with the great peace
movement, and they are looking for
ward to the day when our nation
will cease to expend 10 per cent of
our national funds for the building of
an army and navy.
After an extended discussion Of the
subject, the meeting unanimously in
structed the clerk to sign the resolu-
ton in behalf of the meeting of 45O
mo~bers, and forward a copy to each
of the members in congress, and Of
fer copy to each of our papers with
a request that our action on this very
important subject be published.
On behalf of the meeting,
JOHN S. RICHIE, Clerk.

INJUNCTION
WAS MADE
PERMANENT
JUDGE GALLOWAY HOLDS THAT
ONE LAW is GOOD UNTIL AN
OTHER IS MADE AND THE
FIRST ONE REPEALED. ....

Yesterday, as was told in The Cap
ital Journal, Judge Galloway at the
suit Of Il. II. Flagg, chief clerk Of the
senate. issued temporary injunc-
ton restraining the committee ap-
pointed by the senate to revise the
senate journal, from interfering in
any manner with Mr. Flagg in reyis-
ing the same. Last night he made
the Injunction permanent.
Attorney j. II. McNary appeared
for Mr.. Flagg and Attorney-General
Crawford and Deputy Van Wrinkle for
Calendar Clerk Rittner, w. G. d.
Mercer and John p. Hunt These
three had been named in senate
resolution as the persons to revise
and correct the senate journal. Chief
Clerk Flagg, relying on the Kuy-
kendall law Of 1899 which named
the chief clerk as the person to do
this work, brough the Injunction.
The case was opened by Attorney
Van Wrinkle, who took the ground
that the senate had charge of It's own
journal, and could do as it pleased
with II. and that one legislature could
not pass an act which would bind
another. This self-eydent fact he
backed up with decisions from the
orange blossom state of Florida, and
the cyclone-breeding Kansas. along
with opinions from Blackstone, Kent
and the highbrows OF ancient times.
and even to old Cicero.
McNary admitted the axloms men
TONED by the attorney, but said the
legislature could only do away with
the Kuykendall law by repeating It,.
by another law made by both houses
That the senate could not do It by
resolution. No legislature could
make a law Cunless It was in the ma
ture of a contracU which any subse-
quent legislature could not repeal,
but il was the law, and must be
obeyed until repealed. The leglsla-
ture could not pass upon the constl-
tutiOnality OF a law. That was for
the judiciary. Their way to do bust
ness with law they thought uncon-
stitutional was to repeal It. Five
legislatures had accepted 1t as law,
and had obeyed It.
The recent Legislature made Co
lumbus day legal holiday All fu-
ture legislatures are bound by that
law, until one Of them repeals II.
Should special session be CALI in
the month OF October It could not do
business on Columbus day. It could
not even meet on Columbus day and
pass a law repeating the act that
made It legal holiday. 1t would
be bound by II to that extent
Judge Galloway took Mr.. McNary's
view Of the case, held that the Kuy-
kendall law was constitutional and
