A study Of the floor plan will reveal
that this bungalow has some excellent
features in the arrangement of the
rooms. The living room is of good
size. IL feet 6 inches, by 13 feet 3
inches. The arrangement of the win
dows, two in front and one at the side
make it light, pleasant room. En-
trance to the sun parlor is gained
through a doorway at the end, while
there is a colonnade between it and
the dining room.
The latter is of the exact size Of the
living room, which, because of the
colonnade opening, makes the two
rooms practically one.
The kitchen is practically square, be-

good-sized pantry on one side and

The two bedrooms are each 8 feet

code. Nor did it ever occur to me
that any political party or machine
would have the temerity to use the
referendum as a means of enabling
a very small minority, headed by a
clique of political reactionaries and
obstructionists. to defeat majority
expression of the people.
Will Hamper Legislation.
Seventh, l want the people to
know that a referendum against the
code will suspend the operation OF
legislation bearing upon business
organization of the states admin
istrative machinery. Much legisla-
ton that was passed, intended for
administration under the code, will
have been seriously hampered and
in some instances defeated entirely.
and legislation which would have
enabled the state administration to
investigate and control profiteering
will have been suspended.
Eighth, | think this referendum
petition, in connection with the one
against the ratification of the prohib-
tory amendment to the federal con-
stitution. amply indicates to the peo-
pie of the state that the old, wet ma
chine. which they thought they put
out of business at the last general
election, is still very much alive, and
is exerting a very dangerous influ-
ence in the state. | realize, of course,
that many good citizens of Nebraska
signed the referendum petition
a against the code, not appreciating
the pernicious influences that were
back of it.
Ninth, if a referendum is filed
against the code, | shall feel that
my hands were tied in giving the
state an efficient business admins
tration, but my lips are not sealed
against telling the people that if they
want such all administration of the
states business, they must first be
awake to the pernicious activities of
the machine that has repeatedly
thwarted the will Of the people in
the past; that has attempted on
every hand to embarrass public Of
ficials who believe in law, order and
decency; and that in this instance
has prostituted the referendum to
a use for which it was never in
tended.
Tenth, it should be understood
that the referendum petitions have
been obtained at no small cost to

since the referendum law was put
in force, has there been such an
organized effort to secure names to
a referendum.
The committee finally Joined
forces with the anti-prohibition COM
mittee circulating referendum petit
tions, with headquarters in Omaha,
and by the united efforts of both
committees, working jointly, suffi-
cient names were obtained.
That these two committees repre-
sented two souls with but a single
thought, two hearts that beat as
one" is indicated by the fact that
the referendum petition on the code
and the referendum petition on the
of the prohibition
amendment knocking out the act of
the last legislature favorable to ma
tional prohibition were both filed
within an hour of each other and
that about the same number of
names were secured on each propo-
sition in Douglas county, where the
committees were working jointly
1924 on the code and 1888 on the
referendum on prohibition.
Involves Heavy Cost.
Had the new code law been al
lowed to go into effect July 19, the
people could have seen the law
working out and then if they were
that it was not what they
needed the next legislature could
have repealed it or have made such
c changes as would make it satisfac-
tory. Now the petitions are filed
the taxpayers of the state can
thank the democratic propaganda
committee for having to go down
and pay an additional $l50,000 in
taxes for the privilege of voting on
a law they will know nothing about
because the referendum on the bill
has taken from them the only in
telligent method of finding out the
merits or dement's of the bill, that
of seeing it work.

PETITION ON CODE
LAW Pre- SENT ED
Point Made Against Its Legal
ity; Prohibition Petition
Filed Also Sim
taneouSIy.

Lincoln, July l4.--(Special)-
Petitions under the referendum
holding up the administrative code
law passed by the last legislature
were filed in the office of the sec
retary of state this morning.
The petitions contain 2o,42O
names, notwithstanding the propa-
ganda sent out by the promotion
committee during the time these pc
titions have been in circulation led
people to believe that the petitions
were being numerously signed. In
order to make the petitions legal
10 per cent of the total vote cast
at the last election would be re-
quired. This would call for 22,2lS
signatures on the petitions, which
shows that with all the hard work,
but 1902 names more than the legal
number could be secured.
There are 81 counties represented
i'll the petitions, but Is Of these
failed to have sufficient names to
make the petitions legal, so that but
Sc counties came across with the
required number. Douglas county
furnished almost one-half of the
total number of names, 1874 while
Lancaster county, the home of the
propaganda committee, only fur
nished l,45l names.
The petitions were brought to the
state house and presented to the
secretary of state by Fred Ayes,
chief of the promotion committee;
his assistants. A. D. Scott. J. NJ.
Foster of Lincoln, Dexter T. Bar
rett and Z. NJ. Burnett.
Governor Makes Objection.
The matter of whether the petit
tions filed are within the law will
be decided by the attorney general
before the petitions are accepted by
the secretary of state. Governor
Mckelvie appeared t'lis afternoon
when the matter came up for open
ing and examining the petitions, and
objected because the petitions did
not have copies of the code bill at
tached. The petitions merely give
the title. The matter will be further
taken up Wednesday, after the attor-
ney general has passed upon the
question.

FESTIVAL MAY LEAD
TO ROAD REFORMS

The Hood River Blossom Festival
with it's thousands of visitors Sunday
has resulted in agitation for numerous
road improvements and reforms.
Although contract was let Tuesday
for new grade over new alignment,
between the city and the top Of Rlth.
ton hill, an old bridge near Wau GUN
GUN. where two cars collided Sunday,
will be replaced with temporary but
substantial structure.
The need for a standardized system
of road signs is obvious and Commo-
dore Dean, who has suggested a sys.
TEN similar to that used by klickitat
county, is getting the hearty support
of all citizens. Commodore Dean has
also suggested that stretch of Oak
street, on which are located the city's
chief business blocks, from Ninth to
its intersection with Cascade avenue,
city extension of the Columbia River
Highway, be paved. Property owners
for the most part favor the move, and
the city council. it is said, will take
steps to secure the early improvement.
Oak and Cascade avenue, after the
intersection. run almost parallel for
several blocks and many cars take the
unpaved streets.
Parking space in and near Hood
River was at a premium Sunday. Be-
cause OF isolation and lack of signs,
but few cars reached plot of land
offered free of charge by Chas. T.
Early, to the city and county for ar
automobile park. The visit of the
large number of cars has lead to a new
agitation for an auto camping park
and for picnic parks throughout the
valley.

MRS. COPPLE'S ROSES
ATTRACT VISITORS

Mrs. {. f. Copple. Of the East Side
created one Of the sensations of Apple
Blossom Festival Sunday with her rose
garden Even close neighbors of the
Copple family. hearing of the wonder
ful display of blooms, journeyed to
Mr.. Copple's home to see the early
flowers Business men, passing the
COpple place with out of town guests.
returned later with their wives. Sew.
eral slyly approached the roses with
shears. but Mrs. Copple was watchful
and no one was allowed to pluck a
flower.
Mrs. Copple explained that the roses
were produced by application of nitrate
of soda, found very effective in in
creasing the yield Of orchard and
strawberry tracts. And hundreds of
visitors left Sunday resolved to pur.
chase the plant stimulant. The gov
ernment. with hostilities ended, has
released for sale large quantities Of
nitrate. originally intended for use in
the manufacture of explosives. A fair
percentage of this surplus will prob.
ably be bought by Oregon rose fanci-
ers.
In fact, the rose blossoms at Mrs.
Copple's place Sunday, except for u
American Beauties, were imitation.
but such good ones that 80 per cent of
the visitors were fooled. Mrs. Copple
had spent the previous week making
800 paper roses which she ngeniously
fastened to the bushes of her garden.
The cooring. too. was deceptive In
applying nitrate of soda to small
cherry tree Mrs. Couple administered
an overdose and killed it. But she
turned it into Jap-rose. and its
blooms were magnificent.
Aside from her clever Blossom Day
hoax, Mrs. Copple is an ardent advo
cate Of the use of nitrate of soda for
rose bushes. The stimulant, applied
moderately, increases foliage and
| bloom
The imitation flowers were made of
silk tissue paper secured in Hood
River. In celebration of their 10 years
of married life, Mrs. Copple displayed
a dove holding a silk flag in its mouth
This, she declared, was to Indicate
that we were still at peace after l9
years.
