SHER|FF'S DUTIES
MAY Be REDUCED
BARRETT WOULD HAVE
TREASURER COLLECT TAXES
Joint Senator from Umatilla, Union
and MORROW Counties Introduces
Important Bill at Salem.

Taking the collection of taxes from
the hands of the sheriff and placing
this work with the county treasurer,
is the purpose Of a measure introduc-
ed in the senate by Senator c. A. Bar
rett of Umatilla, Morrow and Union.
While intended to affect every county,
the bill, of course, will center in Multi
nomah, where the collection OF taxes
is the most important part OF Sheriff
Stevens duties. Senator Barrett dis
claims that the measure Is aimed at
Stevens or any other sheriff. He ex-
plains that oregon is one of the few
states where sheriffs collect taxes in
stead of the county treasurer. Bar
rett says he wants the taX-collecting
placed where it belongs. Along the
same line is another bill by the same
senator by means OF which he wishes
10 provide that county funds in the
hands of a county treasurer may be
deposited in national or state banks,
as is the present rule with state funds.
The bill has practically the same pro-
visions as the state fund law, such as
indicating the amount of securities
which a bank must give in return for
county deposits.
Against Bleached Flour.
Despite defeat two years ago, the
bill prohibiting the manufacture and
sale of bleached or chemically treat
ed or misbranded flour, has bobbed
up again Senator Kellaher, who lost
out on this pure food measure in the
1903 session, introduced it again to-
day. The bill was bitterly Opposed TWO
years ago, chiefly By senator Slnnott
but during the past few months de-
cisions of the courts have been such
that little or no opposition is antici-
pated by Kellaher this time. The
measure even makes it unlawful for
a person or firm to knowingly have
in its possession or to knowingly sci
or offer to give it away The stats
food commissioner is authorized tC
seize, and confiscate any misbrandet
cereals or bleached flour and attend
to the prosecution. If enacted, th'
bill will make a radical change il
