SALEM. Ore, March S0.-Dr. c. ].
Smith of Portland, candidate for the
democratic nomination for governor
rendered his resignation to Governor
West as a member of the state board
of health and the board of higher
curricula.
This action would have been taken
some time ago had 1t not been for
some uncompleted matters before
these boards" he said. my term
having recently expired on the last
named board, formal resignation as
to 1t is perhaps unnecessary.
Public office should be a public
trust: and 1t seems to me a man can
not be an office seeker and at the
same time do his full duty as an Of
flee holder. The temptation to neg
lect the peoples affairs for ones pri-
vate ambitions is too great"

HIGH COST OF
 STRIKES HITS
 SHELTON HARD Expense on Taxpayers of Borough for Textile Dis
 turbance Is $5, 5,4s9.76 BOROUGH POLICEMEN
 ALSO MUST BE PAID Sam Beardsley Wants to Know If Socialists Can't
 Get Work Tn Mill
(By Our Staff Correspondent. }

Sby Our oCan COTTeSpOn0HnG.)
 Shelton, Feb. 3@At a special meet ing of the board of burgesses of Shel- ton tonight, Clerk Willis will report that the total cost to the borough, of the extra police protection employed in the B1umentha1 strike, is $5,489.76. This does not include three weeks pay for the special policemen of the borough of Shelton who are paid monthly. This is up to last Saturday when with the vote to abandon the strike it was regarded that the extra police were no longer needed.
 Fffty-nine special deputy sl1eriffs have been employed during the strike, though not all at once. Many who were secured were unsatisfactory to a day or two of experience with the Blurnenthal guards quit their jobs. This extraordinary expense will fall upon residents of the borough, and will not be taxed upon those who pay only the town taxes.
 Violence has not ceased with the vote of the I. W. W. local to call the strike off. A cobble stone that weigh ed two pounds seven ounces was hurl- ed through plate glass window meas uring by 20 feet, in the saloon of John Freiheit, in Center street, be- tween 12 and 5 o'clock this morning What aetuated the deed is not known
 
 trials of a number of the strikers Tn the same house strike breaker had secured a room. Two weeks ago, the head of the household received an in timation that he had better get rid of his new boarder. Two nights later the strike breaker was sent away
 Samuel Beardsiey, state organizer. of the Socialist party, was not at all dismayed today at the report that Matilda. Rabinowitz. the strike leader, had accused him of playing into the hands of the mill owners, against the strikers, and he hastened to the Blum enthaI factory to demand an explana- ton of a. report that reached him that the mills would give employment to no Socialists.
 A meeting of the Machinists' Union in the c. L.. U. hall in Derby last night was held without reference to the the mills are still out, it having been intimated to them that the mills want no union men. The machinists are affiliated with the American Fedora ton of Labor.
 Many of the weavers still refuse to go back to seek work. They declare they will go elsewhere for employ ment unless the card service system is abolished.

 PRESIDENT
 FELT SORRY
 FOR GIRLS But Duty to Party Restrain ed Him From Giving
 Opinion MISS CASEY. TELLS OF VISIT TO PRES. WILSON Had a Splendid Time, But Were Disappointed By Presidents Silence

Miss Elsie May Casey, who with her sister, Miss Maybelle Casey, represent ed Bridgeport in the Working Won1- en's Deputation to the President. was interviewed this morning concerning her impression Of the Chief Executive
 ''He impressed me-" said Miss Ca sey, mot as a man of the world but rather as one whom we call a high brow I think he felt sorry when told that there girls have to work so hard for so little wages and often have to go hungry on that account but don't think that hef realized it at all. I really think that he person ally is half way in favor of the move ment, but feels as he said, he must ast as his party dictates-' That was what disappointed us girls SO much we had hoped that at least he would give us his personal opinion
 t'He was very nervous. his hands and lips trembling noticeably ss we filed past him. He held out his hand and some took it while a numbef. who felt particularly disappointed with him, refused to clasp it.
 "There were 800 of us altogether. we had a splendid parade first, with a band to head us off. The President received us in the Executive Office so, of course, that wasn't large enough to hold us all. The speakers and the first 25 who happened to be stand ing at the front went in first. and later we all passed through in single file.
 ..On the whole, we had splendid time, despite the fact that we were somewhat disappointed"

Mrs. Jacques Cooks Two and Throws Three, Stirring
 Husbands Anger.

Because eggs are high, Mrs. Edmon J. Jacques, 288s Fairfield avenue, cook ed but one for her husbands supper, Saturday, and none for the rest of the family He demanded more and she cooked another. Then he choked her until their son of 12 years interfered-
 This, at least, was the story told in city court today, by Mrs. Jacques, a pretty, little woman, dressed in be- coming blue suit, and a blue hat, trimmed with fuzzy white stuff.
 Jacques works in the Graphophone company He denied the choking and said his wife threw three eggs at his head He said he had only a sand wich for dinner, and believed himself entitled to more than one egg for supper.
 The Jacques have been in court be- fore. Judge Coughlin said he thought it would be better if Jacques lived apart from his family for a while, but contributed to their support. He con- tinued the case for three months and placed Jacques in charge of the pro- bation officer.
 When the couple left the court room the man would walk down a few steps and wait She would walk on a few steps past him and wait. This was continued until they reached the street. Jacques started for the West End on a. quick step, while Mrs. Jacques and her son walked toward Main street.

 Stomach.

Bridgeport, Feb. 3-Through the legal representatives, of the Crosses. sons of the late Hannah A Cross. Coroner John J. Phelan today receiv- ed. a report from the chemists who made quantiative analysis of the or gans of the deceased woman.
 They found in the stomach but 789 thousandths of a grain of codein.N or considerably less than the quantity which Mrs. Mary Thompson Luquer testified had been given to her in &C., cordance with the orders of Dr. H. w. F1eck, the attending physician.
 This analysis completely disposed of thetheory of Mrs. Cross sons, that their mother had died Of an overdose of poison, given perhaps to hasten her death.
 There remains now to solve only the problem connected with her estate. Attorney Thomas M. ,Cu1linan is col 1ecting knowledge of her property, much of which has not beeh account ed for.
 Mrs. Cross estate will probably be discovered not to exceed $80, 1000, or S1O0,0O0, even if all that remains is discovered.
 Coroner Phelan will make finding that death was due to natural causes.

Reasonable Charges for Free Service Railroads May
 Be Fixed

Washington, Feb. 3-Another de- velopment was thrown today into the freight rate eases before the inter state commerce commission in which the 52 eastern railroads are seeking to advance their charges, when Com missioner Harlan announced that the commission intended to hold supple mentary hearings, on the question of fixing reasonable charges for free ser vice railroads now perform for large industrial plants. Commissioner liar Ian, in a formal statement, pointed out that the evidence so far submit ted, tended to show "a diminishing net revenue and a diminishing net in come for the railroads.
 The commission, however, has set for itself broader inquiry in the proceedings,'' said he. s'If the rev euues are shown to be inadequate what general course may carriers pur- sue to meet the situation ?''
 After reviewing the free services disclosed in the recent decision and the cost to the railroads, the cornnis- sioner concluded by saying:

MODIFIED AMENDMENT
 PASSED IN HOUSE.

Washington, Feb. 3+Thes modified Hays amendment was before the House today when it resumed the fight on the Asiastic exclusion feature of the immi grafton bill.
 As modified by Representative Len roots amendment adopted last night, it would bar Asiatics and Africans ex- cept those whose entry to the United States has been provided for by trea- ties or passport arrangements which now exist or which may later be en- tered into. Its supporters contended that in such a form it did not disturb nor affect the status of Chinese or Japanese immigration. In it's original terms the Hays amendment would have excluded all Asiatics
