John Klcrnaii Calls Meeting to Dis cuss Nebraska, California, Oregon Collaboration. John Klernan, chairman. of the com mittee representing: the owners of Omaha Independent Telephone bonds in this community, has called a meeting: of the bondholders at the Courthouse at 8 o'clock next Tuesday niftht. The purpose of the meeting is two fold. In the first place, the committee will submit a report detailing the suc cess of its efforts toward pooling the bonds. This report will show that ap proximately $200,000 of the $400,000 in securities held by people of the Pacific Northwest have been placed in the hands of the committee. Secondly, the committee will decide on the advisabil ity of sending: a representative to Omaha to confer with the owners of similar bonds relative to co-operatlns with the Nebraska people either in nitiatinjr a plan of reorganization of he company or looking to the disposi ion of the bonds to the best possible Ldvantagre to the bondholders. Members of the committee have re- pm-ived a communication from a similar ommittee representing holders of these onds in Omaha, in which it is pro posed that the interested bondholders f the Nebraska city. Los Angeles and 'ortland pool their holdings and unite n a practical plan for reorganizing: the l ompany. The Omaha people represent la at if tho .interested bondholders can pet together, consolidate their inter ests and proceed with the completion of several extensions to the Omaha plant before the franchises covering those extensions expire, the property will be placed on a paying basis. In this way. it is figured that the bond holders will realise dollar for dollar on their holdings eventually. The pro posal of the Omaha bondholders is re garded of sufficient value to warrant submitting It to the local association preliminary to considering the advisa bility of sending a representative to Nebraska to Inquire into the actual con dition of the telephone plant and Its possibilities Sf the contemplated exten sions of the system are made. DEBATE TERMS ARE MADE Y. E- Crltchlow and Otto Kleemann Confer on Prohi Contest. W. E. Crltchlow, representing J. P. Newell, secretary of the Prohibitionists, yesterday afternoon had a conference with Otto Kleeman. president of the Consolidation of German-speaking So cieties of Oregon, and made preliminary arrangements for the proposed debate on prohibition. The form of the question to be dis cussed will be: "Resolved, That Pro hibition would be beneficial to the state." Speakers for Prohibition will take the affirmative and the German societies the negative. It was decided to have one speaker on each side In stead of several as at first proposed. The discussion will be held In a Port land hall in March. The only hitch Is over the language to be spoken. Mr. Kleemann wanted German as more agreeable to his coun trymen, but Mr. Crltchlow said the members of the Prohibition party were not German scholars, and Insisted that the debate should be in English. The debate will be held before an open meeting in a hall to be selected by the consolidation. The speakers will be given 30 minutes to open and 15 minutes to close. It wu agreed that the terms decided should be put in the form of a letter by Mr. Crltchlow arid submitted to Mr. Kleemann. The dis cussion may be postponed until the con vention of the Consolidation of German-speaking Societies is held in May. Onlx One -BBOMO QCIMSE." That 1.

"Watkins, one of the most prominent and enthusiastic members-, of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, has tendered his resignation as member of the board of directors for business reasons, and the club has appointed' a committee to endeavor to pursuade him to reconsider his decision. -Mr. Watklns anricunces that his resig nation is due solely to business reasons. It is the wish of his father, George E. Watklns, -with whom he is associated in business, that he de-vote as much of his time as possible to the business of the concern, and as he Is also a member of the City Council, representing the Fifth Ward, he finds he cannot conscientiously de-vote the required time to club matters. The Iobs of Frank Watkins to the board of trustees of the Multnomah Club will be keenly felt, for he is one of the most enthuastlc members and has worked hard and faithfully in the interest of the organization for -over 15 years. In his early days as a member of the club he was one of Its most noted athletes, and in recent years he has assisted the .or ganization as manager of different athle tic bodies of the club, and a year ago he was elected a director, and still baa one year to serve.
