LAWMAKERS
ON RECORD
JOINT LEGISLATIVE COMMIT
TEE PUBLISHES A PAMPH-
LET IN WHICH YOU MAY
READ HOW YOUR REPRE-
SENTATIVES ACTED AT
OLYMPIA.

At the last session of the state legis-
lature the representatives, of four or
carnations having measures up for con-
sideration worked in perfect accord SO
harmonious was their work that a ten
tative alliance was formed with the idea
of making it permanent during the
course Of the year. In September fol-
lowing conference was held in North
Yakima which resulted in complete
unity of working forces and the selec-
tion of a joint legislative committee to
have charge of future legislative work.
The four organizations referred to are:
Direct Legislation League of Washing
ton, Washington State Federation of
Labor, Farmers Union of Washington
and Washington State Grange. This
committee will watch closely the trend
of legislative affairs and will pledge
candidates for the legislature on mea-
sures favorable to the four organiza-
tions.
A tabulated review Of the legislative
proceedings of 1911 has Just been issued
by this joint legislative committee. The
record of every member of house and
senate on several important measures
appear In the order named the mea-
sures appear as follows: Women's
eight-hour law, compensation act, re
40 I'll ini+ia+i,r, Il
ment initiative and referendum. The
roll call vote is given not alone on
final passage, but on several amend
ments and substitutes designed to de
feat or emasculate the bills. Each leg
islator is put squarely on record with no
chance to dodge or squirm out from un-
der. The committee has taken full re
sponsibility for the authenticity of the
vote as given on the various roll calls.
Twelve roll call votes are given Those
voting right are marked in black ink
and those voting wrong in red so it is
possible to see at a glance how your
representative voted when he was put
under the gun.
Many members of the 1911 legisla-
ture will be up for reelection this fall.
The record will be a handy thing for the
voters to carry around.
Snohomish county voters will be in
terested to know how their represen-
tatives voted On the whole they came
through pretty clean Falconcr voted
on twelve roll calls and has a. batting
average of l,000-"right' on every
measure. Stephens was absent" on
one roll call, voted right" ten times
and wrong" once Campbell, Holmes
and Boyle are recorded as voting
right on all twelve roll calls Bird
voted right" seven times, wrong
twice and is marked absent" on three
roll calls.
Snohomish county has little to com
plain of her law makers on the record
shown, but other counties We're not so
fortunate as the table is plentifully
sprinkled with red figures.
Speaker Taylor, for instance. was
wrong seven times on twelve roll calls
The record is being printed in suffi-
cient numbers to place one in the hands
of every voter and should prove a vau-
able campaign document

 The handling af the coal burned in the power house has been reduced to a mechanical system which practi- cally 0bviates all manual labor. Coal is dumped directly from ears in which it is hauled from the mines into large bunkers, whence it is conveyed by electric hoists directly to the mechan- ical s'tCker:, which feed it automati- cally to the oiler fires. The ashes a:a to diameter of eight and one-half and carried by an electric hoist into the elevated, reinforced hopper of two-car capacity, whence they are conveyed by chutes into cars to be hauled from the plant. The smoke stack of the power house is twelve feet in diameter at the base, tapering to diameter of eight and ane-half feet at the top, 16S feet above the ground. It is built of solid, reinforc- ed concrete and is lined with fire brick gixty-five feet up.
 Still further south beyond the power house, located in the wye, stands the signal tower, built in sub stantial brick and equipped with the latest appliances for controlling the movement of trains in the yard All trains entering or leaving the station yards will be controlled by switches operated by compressed air electri- cally released
 Provision is also made for the care of engines entering the station yards, in the shape of a reinforced cc'nerete engine house, to which is attached a shCp equipped for making minor re pairs. The coal used by locomotive } will be handled by locomotive crane, q rect from acrs to locomotives.

 BUSY IN GEORGIA Conceded Wilson and Ala
 bamian Are Leaders FIGHT BEING WAGED
Some of Strongest HOke Smith Men in State Supporters of Under wood-Headquarters Opened
 at the Aragon

Atlanta, March 12.-(special )-Interest in the presidential campaign for the noxi few weeks will divide honors with the state campaign for governor, if 1t does not temporarily overshadow it.
 With the presidential primary only . few weeks off, there is no question that the friends of the two leading candidates in Georgia, Oscar W. Underwood of Ala bama and Woodrow Wilson of New Jer- sey, will put In all the time possible in their behalf.
 It is conceded that the fight in this state will be between Underwood and Wilson. In fact, 1t is doubtful if any other candidate makes serious contest for Georgia, though unquestonably Clark and Harmon will get a good vote in the state
 But only the Underwood and Wilson people have opened headquarters here, the former at the Aragon and the latter in the Kimbal, and it is in these two camps that the fight is being waged.
 It first looked as though the Wilson, Underwood contest would turn out to be contest between the two political fac tons Tn GeOfBld, Nltn the ftOht oHiltti element on the one hand fighting for Will son degeates, and the Joseph M. Brown faction on the other, supporting Under wood.
 But this idea of 1t has been knocked into a cooked hat. Some of the strongest and best known Hoke Smith men in the state are among the foremost supporters of the Alabaman-lhey want to see southern man in the White House; while on the other hand it is equally true that some of the prominent Brown men are found in the Wilson camp.
 It has grown into fight wholly outside of and without regard to factional lines in Georgia. Each man is supporting his favorite candidate regardless of how he votes in state politics.
 And the press agents of both candidates are about the busiest little bees to be found in a political hive. Every man of note who comes along Is promptly caught tagged and interviewed. It is going to be pretty fight and one that will necessarily have to be fought out quickly.

With a fractured hip, Thomas Bradford, aged 15 years was taken to St. Vincent s hospital yesterday in the ambulance of Shaw x Son from the residence of his parents. 1908 Rush avenue, North Higa- lands.
 It developed when the boy was examined that he had been injured quite seriously while playing about 10 days ago. At tho time he was in the streets near his homo and had stopped over to pick up some ohing. While he was stopped over his playmate ran up and caught him about the hips. A short time afterwards the lit He fellow went to the house and com- plained of pain in his hips.
 His, parents attributed 1t to rheumatism 'orJsome like trouble and doctored him ac- cordingly. However the lads hips began swelling and yesterday pr. Coster was called in.

 AVIATION MEET
Hold Meeting TOnight-Ad- vance Money Is Coming
 in Slow

Tonight at eight o'clock in the direc- l tors room of the Business Mems league | in the Chamber of Commerce building
 there will be meeting of the directors and the representatives of the Berger
 Aviation company for the purpose Of l furtherng the interests of the aviation
 meet, automobile show and races to have
 it's opening on Monday, April s, at the | Alabama State Fair grounds under the auspices of the Business Mems league. 1 J. S. Berger, manager of the Berger Aviation company's attractions, and Ayia-
 tor Brindley arrived in the city yester- day afternoon from Montgomery. They
 were accompanied by W. C. Smith of the | latter city who is interested in aviation. These gentlemen are at the Florence hotel where they are making their headquarters for the present.
 Upon arriving here, Manager Berger held a private business conference with MT. Chaffee in which it developed that the subscriptions had not been coming in as fast as was hoped for and that there is a remote prospect that the meet will not be held. Manager Berger said he was at a tremendous expense and could not afford to give Birmingham his attraction unless the full sum first planned for, s1000O, was immediately forthcoming. At the present time, oc- cording to MT. Chaffee, only one-third of the amount is at hand, although, of course, the soliciting is still going on. MT. Chaffee was optimistic over the sit uation and said that he believed local pride would never permit Birmingham to lose the advantages to be derived from the big exhibition for lack of a few thous- and dollars.
 Mr. Chaffee said that if no hitch occurs in the pending arrangements and the nec- essary funds are forthcoming, the meet in Birmingham will be a positive triumph
 While coming up on the train yester- day, Aviator Brindey examined the topography of the proposed race between an airship. and a train from Montgomery to Birmingham. He said that the right of way adjacent to the railroad tracks presented many pitfalls for the air pilot It is barely possible, says MT. Brndley, that the entire flight could be made with out making a stop. He regards the pro- posed race as very dangerous.
 The mails are bringing into the head quarters at the Business Mems league numerous requests from people who want to take a ride in the airships. Many of these are from the most prominent peo- pie in Birmingham and cities of northern Alabama. Judging from the present in- dications the passenger service will have to be kept down, otherwise there will be more requests than can be granted.

BLOCK PAVEMENT DOOMED. Big Meeting Yesterday by
 Board of Trade CIRCULATE A PETITION Property Owners Fast Signing Peti- tion to Be Presented to City
 CommissiOn-New Pave
 ment Undetermined
CIRCULATE A PETITION

1 The Belgian block pavement along the | business sections of the city is doomed, as the Board of Trade department of tne Chamber of Commerce will at an early date present petition to the city commits sion for it's removal. The conference or property owners and business men held yesterday afternoon under the auspices or the Board of Trade at the Chamber or Commerce resulted in the authorization or John l.. Parker to name necessary com mittees to get up a formal petition for smooth pavement as a substitute.
 Not dissenting note to the proposition under discussion was expressed, the gen eral opinion that the Belgian blocks must go being plainly in evidence. The exact paving to be used was tentatively broached with the understanding that 1t should not be brick and would in all prob ability be a choice between bithuiltic ana asphalt. This matter it was decided, would be left to the jurisprudence of the ctSic governors, the type of paving to be signiied in the petition only to be ''of the smooth variety"
 R. D. Burnett announced that he had succeeded in obtaining the signatures or nearly 1700 feet of Second avenue between Nineteenth and Twenty-first streets. Mr. Burnett stated that he did not doubt but that within the next few days he could have the entire list of those directly con- cerned in this, street. The report was made that MT. Earle of the First avenue division has signed up 75 per cent of the property owners along that avenue. The reports from others in touch with the situation were equally as optimistic
 MT. Burnett also made the assertion that Commissioner Exum had stated that the price of 50 cents each would be paid by the city for the old blocks, which were 10 be used in the alleys or for other purposes by the street department.
 Upon motion presented by w. w. Crawford the chair was empowered to dis tribute the proper forms of petitions among as many committees as he would deem sufficient to be filled out by next Monday On the afternoon of this day meeting is set for o'clock in the Chamber of Commerce, when it is expected that the committee or individual to submit the documentary decision of the property owners to the commissioners will be chosen.
 The session was one of the best attended recently conducted by the Board of Trade. Among those present were: John L. Parker, J. D. Collins, Eugene Fies, F. Harvey, w. w. Crawford, Victor Hanson. Solon Jacobs, Frederick Gunster, R. D. Burnett, Rivers Carter, Charles T. Sharpe and others.
 The meeting scheduled for next Monday afternoon is expected to close the cam pasgn which has been inauguarated by -he Board of Trade.
