NEWS OF LAWMAKERS AT OLYMPIA
Rrief Resume Proceedings Of Peoples
at the State Capital Bills introduced, Passed. Rejected Etc
RECORD MADE AT OLYMPIA
Lawmakers Accomplish Much I'm
pOrtant Work.

Olympia With 235 bills passed by
the two houses up to date the 18th
session of the Washington legislature
probably will break all records for the
amount of business transacted. The
session also will establish a new rec
ord for the amount of important leg
islation put through.
Both houses have passed 81 bills, all
OF which have gone to Governor Lister
for approval or veto. So far the gov
ernor has vetoed two bills and parts of
a third. He has signed about IL.
Both houses have concurred in 20 me-
MORALS and resolutions.
Monday was the 50th day of the ses-
sion and found both branches much
farther along with their business than
any session heretofore, in spite of the
fact that the number of bills on hand
was several hundred greater than the
number introduced at any other ses-
sion. The bills now total HOG, there
being 457 in the senate and 694 in the
house.
Included in the list of important
measures which have passed one or the
other houses up to this time are the
Vancouver-Portland bridge appropria-
ton bill, the mothers pension bill,
the teachers pension bill, the bill
creating a system of state arterial
highways, bill for a pension for
wives and families of convicts, bill
creating a state department of agri-
culture and others.
The Vancouver-Portland bridge ap-
preparation bill of $500, 900 passed the
house by vote of 81 to 80. The pas
sage of the bill marked a distinct vic
tory for the delegation from southwest
Washington headed by Representative
Mccoy and Senator French, both of
Vancouver. There seems to be no
doubt about the success of the measure
in the senate.
The measures probably will come
before the senate soon, it being the
plan of the hackers of the bill to get
it into the hands of Governor Lister as
soon as possible so that if he vetoes it
enough force can be mustered to pass
it over his veto.
One of the most important bills
passed during the past week was the
measure introduced by Senator Troy
of Jefferson county, providing for the
establishment of state department
of agriculture to take up administra-
ton of all questions relating to agri-
culture in the state. The department
will take over the work now done by
about 10 state departments including
the state food and dairy commissioner,
the oil inspector, the state horticul-
tural inspector and all his county dep
uties, and others. There was but
little opposition in the senate and none
has developed as yet in the house.
The plan meets with the approval of
Governor Lister.

Fires Rage Underground.

Chicago Underground fires, fed by
tunnels of oil, drove 5000 men from
the plant of the Standard Steel Car
company at Hammond, Ind. Water

spread the flames until a score Of
blazes spouted at various points over
20 acres of ground. The fire ate so
deeply into foundations Of some build
ings that the men sought safety out of
doors. The Offices of the plant CT I'M
pied up and the engineroom and foun-
dry were damaged. The flames were
subdued after outside aid came.

DEADLOCK ENSUES
IN BUFFALO
RAILWAY COMPANY WILL REC
TREAT WITH EMPLOYEES.

Buffalo, n. Y, April 1~o.-Negotia-
lions for a settlement of the strike
of motormen and conductors of the In
ternational Railway company through
the mediation of Mayor Louis P. Fuhr-
mann came to a deadlock late today.
The split between the strikers and the
railway officials was upon the ques-
ton of dealing with a committee of
the union for the adjustment of wages
and the working hour, for which the
men struck.
The company recognized the union
to the extent of stating that it would
re-employ all it's men irrespective of
affiliation with the union, but insisted
upon its right to deal with a commit
tee of its oWn employees in adjusting
wages and hours.
Street car service under military po-
lice protection was maintained IN two
of the principal ~thoroughfares for six
hours today. There was only one clash
today, n that was not serious. A
mob pelted a car, but it quickly dis
persed when the troops fired a volley
Yer the heads of the demonstrators.
AT a meetings tonight of 100 dele
gates, said to represent $4,000 labor
unionists in the city, a resolution was
adopted instructing the executive COM
mittee of the United Trades and Labor
council to prepare all affiliated organi-
cations for whatever action may b
necessary to win the strike of the
street car men,"

suited to Mr.. Cranes requirements,
and it has served to add to the popu-
larity he enjoys. This is doubly in
teresting in that it will be the vehicle
used for the present tour of the co..
median, which marks his 50th %contin-
uous season on the American stage.
There are so many things in Mr..
Cranes connection with the stage to
prompt congratulatorN consideration
that they can only DE covered gencr-
ally. Fifty years of honorable activity
in an calling is worthy of esteem, but
it is exceptional in the theater where
changes multiply so swiftly and time
plays pranks with fate, But against
all altering conditions and developing
personalities, Mr.. Crane has held his
sway with no uncertain grip. He is
beloved by a following that reaches
into every section Of the country. In
the nearly tWo-score years that he
has been a star he has added to his
clientele every season, and by the sure,
and solid methods of wholesome worth.
In the face Of all contending events he
has continued to contribute clean
cut and honey plays to the stages
history, and they have always been by
American playWrights, Not content
with any one of the dozen successes
that he might have used indefinitely,
he has produced a full score Of clean
American plays in his time, and made
each and every one a worthy addition
to the list of theatrical developments.
When you scan such a list as our
Boarding House. The Henrietta,
The Senator" "A Fool Of Fortune,
David Harum,' Father and the
Boys" not to mention a dozen cond-
airy successes nearly as prominent as
these, a hint can be given Of how ac-
tive Mr.. Crane has been. Offsetting
his faith in American producers, the
only other plays he was identified
with in the intervening years were
two artistic Shakespearean REVEALS
and a brilliant Goldsmith comedy. Mr..
Crane has honored his profession and
the American stage. In turn he has
Deen honored by Americans for his
sterling worth.

wood, Jack Deyereaux, Charles

REJECTED
BY COUNCIL
ALDERMEN TABLE REQUEST TO
CHANGE THE CLOSING HOURS
OF SALOONS.

Hamilton, April 10.-(Special.D-
The action Of the city council, which
met in adjourned session tonight, con-
corning the citizens petition asking
the passage of anew saloon ordinance,
probably means that the question
Will come before the citizens here in
the form of a referendum measure.
The petition, which is for early clos
ing on week days and complete Sun
day closing of saloons, was tabled by
the council after some discussion. The
aldermen expressed the view that the
petition should have been submitted
before the last election SO hat the
expense Of a special election would
have been unnecessary.
Among other matters of business
transacted by the council was the
passage of a resolution creating spe-
cial Improvement district No. :, the
passage of an ordinance sitting aside
the annual appropriations n the
eanVassing of the election returns.
The city clerk was instructed to draw
a chicken ordinance which is to pro-
vic that owners of chickens shall
keep them penned up within the city
limits and be responsible for damage
which the fowls Ia do to the neigh
boris garden.

STATE TO EXCHANGE
ITS LANDS WITH
GOVERNMENT
NECESSARY APPROPRIATION is
AVAILABLE AND ExAMlNA-
TiON TO BE RUSHED.

Acting District Forester d. T. Mason
yesterday received notice from Mon
tana state officials thai the states
share of the expense to be incurred in
the examination of lands to come
within the proposed and exchange
between the state and the government,
was available and that the state is
ready to proceed with the work. The
total expense of this land examina-
ton is estimated at $4,000. The gov
eminent provides half of this and the
amount has been available for some
time. The other $4,000 comes from
the state and now that it is ready
preparations will be made to get the
work started in the hopes hat it may
be completed this season.
The proposed exchange is similar to
the one recently made in Idaho and
that nave been made in several other
states. 1t is a policy advanced by the
forest service and has in view the as
sembling of the holdings of public
lands by the state through an eX-
change of all those scattered sections
within the national forests for a solid
block, to be of equal value, if not in
area in h quantity of timber it con-
tains, in some section of the state to
be determined after the examination.
AS Montana has already made its lieu
selections east of the Deer Lodge
meridian the scattered tracts it has to
exchange lie west of that line, COM
prising approximately 800, 600 acres.
These tracts within the national for
ests will be carefully examined and
appraised and then a single tract, as
nearly equal in value as can be esti-
mated, will be selected for the *
change. In this way the state secures
a combined tract which may be adj
ministered more efficiently and eco
nomicaily and the forest service is not
bothered with the necessity Of eX-
Guiding scattered patches through the
forests from its operations. 1t is an
arrangement considered of much ben
eft to both the state and the govern
ment and the plan is proving very
satisfactory wherever such an ex-
change has been made.
c. l.. Smith of the forest service, on
special detail in connection with these
state land exchanges, has been called
to MissOula and will nave complete
charge of the details of the field OPP
erations for the Montana exchange.
He will assemble the necessary crews,
the state to have a representative
with each, and will outline the work
that is to be rushed this season.
