ers in both houses. The postpone
ment OF the Archibald Impeachment
trial until Dec. has cleared the
decks In the senate so that action on
the remaining legislative matters can
be rushed through with all speed
possible. ~
Uncertainty exists as to the fate OF
some Of the appropriation bills that
are still at issue between the senate
and house. The determination TO
abolish the commerce court and to
place a Seven-year tenure of Office in
the civil service law has aroused an.
tagonism which may be reflected
from the White House in veto OF
the bill appropriating money for the
salaries Of federal employees.
This contingency has been antlci.
pated by the leaders OF both houses,
and an effort Is being made today to
complete the legislative. executive
and judicial appropriation bill, 80 II
may be sent at once to the president.
In case Of an executive veto, It is be.
lieved Il can again be considered,
passed and resubmitted to him in
amended form without seriously de-
laying plans for adjournment.
Uncertainty Exists.

that will send that measure also to
President Taft during the week.
II has been asserted by the pres.
dents friends In both houses that he
will veto all Of the tariff bills that
reach him.
6uch action would be accepted as
hnai by congress and no attempt
would bo made at this session 10 re-
'pSss the measures.
The Democrats OF the house will
take up the battleship question In

third caucus on the subject, and II Ia
believed they will control the situa.

pristion bills remain to be completed,

There has been started in the Thurs
ton county superior court by Helen
Kennedy suit in which she seeks to
recover her certificate which was re-
voked by H. B. Dewey, state superin-
tendent of public instruction. Miss
Kennedy is a teacher in Douglas
county and her certificate was revoked
on the ground that she used profane
language on the school grounds and in
the school house, and she was further
charged with refusing to allow the
school directors to use the school house
for election purposes. She alleges that
these charges were untrue and is suing
for recovery Of her certificate.

Stephen V. Carey Assistant Attorney
General has in an opinion given to the
public service commission held that
that body has authority to compel rail-
roads to fence their rights Of way. He
has also held that while a railroad is
liable for stock which wanders on the
track and are killed because there is
no fence along the right Of way, it is
not liable for damage done by such
stock when they get into a farmers
field as the result of the absence Of a
fence along the railroad.
