1 OLD OFFICERS NOT WILLING TO LEAVE Men Recalled in Estacada Election Refuse to Abdicate. TWO SETS AT SAME TIME Old Council Meets to Canvass Elec don but Recorder Ioes Not Bring Ballots Whole Trouble Began ia Water Bond Issue. Mayor V. a. Heylman. of Estacada. ana the members of his Council, who were recalled at a special election Sat urday, yesterday refused to abdicate their offices and turn the city govern ment of that town over to Mayor-elect J. W. Reed and the newly-elected mem bers of the Council. Complying with the provisions of the city charter, the Heylman Council met last nlgUt for the purpose of receiving and canvassing the vote cast In the recall election. City Recorder Johnson, who Is a member of the Reed faction, failed to report and submit the election returns. After wait ing a reasonable time for the tardy Recorder, the Council adjourned. Expected developments in the municipal '"""' in xne mountain town did not materialize yesterday. Mayor-elect Reed and the Councilmen-elect intended to take the oath of office and qualify early yesterday morning but did not do so. Mayor Heylman and his a&sorlates had announced that they would yesterday In stitute lesal proceedings in the Circuit Court at Oregon City for the purpose of nullifying the recall election. They failed to file the threatened suit. In the mean time the situation at Estacada Is without change. The town has two complete sets of city officers with the Heylman regime actively holding the offices. It is not probable that the muddle will te settled before June 7. the date for the regular biennial municipal election. If the controversy Is taken Into the courts, a decision cani.ot be had before that time. In that case the two factions will carry their tight Into the regular city election. The charge of W. A. Heylman. the de posed Mayor, that the Reed forces col onized voters In the recall election Sat urday. Is emphatically denied by the supporters of the successful ticket. E. 8. Womer, who is Identified with the Reed faction, in a letter to The Ore goolan yesterday, offers a reward of J100 for evidence that any one of the 59 men who voted In the recall election had not resided for six months In Estacada. Un der the provisions of the Estacada char ter an uninterrupted residence in the city of six months ia required to qualify in a municipal election. It has been charged by the Heylman faction that many participating with the Reed forces In the election lacked that qualification. Trouble Long Standing. The trouble between the Havlland Heylman and the Reed factions dates some four years back. When the town of Estacada was Incorporated. Reed was appointed as its first Mayor. During the latter part of hts administration three years ago he was Indicted and found guilty for alleged participation in a col nlxation scheme In the Sell wood precinct. When he came up for re-election as Mayor In June. 1907, the Heylman forces brought out Dr. W. K. Haviland in op position to Reed. and Haviland was elected by a majority of Ave votes. Haviland served but about one year of the two-year term for which he was elected, and when he tendered his resig nation, he urged the Council, which has the power of selecting a Mavor to nil a vacancy resulting from resignation or death, to name Heylman as his successor. This was done by the Council, a majority of the members being of the Heylman faction. In the election of June. 1907. both fac tions elected a part of their ticket. The Havlland-Heylman people elected the My?Tr and ,nree of ,h nv Councilmen William Dale. J. F. Lvelace and E n Keen forces elected A M. Johnson for City Recorder. H. Cooper for City Treasurer and a minority of the CouncU-C. F. Howe and W. A. Jones. .nr,..re Bned aa member of the Coun cil following the resignation of Haviland end the election of Heylman to succeed to the Mayoralty. A. Havens was elected by the Council to succeed Jones, but did not qualify. Later Surface resigned and removed from the city. He was suc ceeded by TS. O. Boswell. One of the last official acts of Reed and hta Couacil. prior to their retire ment following the election of June 1907 was to authorize the issuance of .10 ooo iO-year. 5 per cent bonds in payment of 2 Wr 18r"em wn,c- acquired (from Morris feros. It was over this transaction that the first real breach .between the two factions resulted Heyl man openly opposed the acquisition of the property for the proposed consldera .tlon of J10.000. but at a public meeting ;Of property-owners, called to consider the question, he was outvoted. Interest Not Paid. However, neither Haviland nor Hevl tnan during the two years they have been in charge of the city administra tion, would authorize the payment of the interest charge on these bonds. The same obligation remains unpaid today Heylman maintains that the Indebted ness was not a legal one for the reason that with the interests computed, the .Council exceeded the limitation as to In debtedness prescribed by the city charter which says that the city shall not con tract any obligation exceeding 110 000 For that reason he has refused to permit .J" T any interest payments on the bond issue, heylman savs th.t T. Bays uat in szssrsrxsr -A -.. -.., u.ajic 01 .s-'uu tn cash for use in making contemplated extensions ana Improvements. It is In this connection the Reed people charge Heylman with Inconsistency. They declare that while Heylman has at tempted to repudiate the. original ln- . detotedneas. he has. as Mayor, directed the expenditure of the bulk of the tano cash which was received from the sale , of the bonds. Aside from the controversy over the bond issue and the payment of interest changes thereon, the affairs of the citv ?MC!!d''d.rU1 "Dave harmony un til about the first of the year, when the Heylman forces became exceedingly active, in seeking to get rid of Recorder Johnson, and so the Reed people assert, to put Johnson "in bad"' with the de partment at Washington as to the post mastership. In furtherance of this attempt, earlv last month, the Heylman council era E!2.!Led F-W0- B""" to examine the books of Recorder Johnson. In his re port Bartiett complained that the ac counts as kept by Johnson were unsatis factory. The report pointed out that the Recorder had not kept any detailed ac- count of coller-tions from the water pat ions wnue ne proceedings of the Coun cil members had not been written up for several months. Bartiett also said yes terday that the books of Treasurer Cooper showed that Johnson had turned into the city treasury about $3") more than the Recorders books sheared had ten collected and was owing to the city. On this showing, the Council ordered Johnson to appear and show cause why he should not be ousted from his offl.-e. About April 2t the Council met and de clared Johnson's offl.-e vacant. Edward Bates was appointed to succeed John son, but when Bates declined to qualify, the Job was given to William Dale, who resigned as a member of the Council. Johnson, however, refused to surrender the records of his office or to cease act ing as Recorder, and carried his rase Into the State Circuit Court. On the same day the recall election was held Judge Camp bell decided that the proceeding of the Council was irregular, and that the only ay Johnson could be moved from his office was through the recall. Johnson Tries Recall. At the same meeting of the Council by Jtki-n Johnson was ousted from off.ee. he presented to the Council a petition signed by St of the legal voters of Es tacada calling for a recajl election on the Mayor and the five members of the Council. When none of the officials against whom the recall was directed lenaer- theur resignation within five ""i" lonowing me presentation of the petition. Recorder Johnson posted notices and in accordance with that announce ment, -ne election was held. ( ui'iiurn inofDIVOnfll of 110.000. incurred by the purchase of -.i waier plant, wni.-n yields a monthly income of about $7S above expenses of operation. There are out standing warrants on the road and gen eral funds to the amount of probably $250 each, which with other small ob ligations, aggregate between $600 and $700. Aside from its water system, the only revenues received by the city come from a general tax levy of & mills. The expenses of. Saturday's recall election at Estacada aggregate about 150. and. following the recent opinion of Attorney-deneral Crawford, will be paid for by the men who petitioned for the election. The expenses Incident to the removal of Recorder Johnson, which was taken into the Circuit Court, will be paid from the same source.
