LIABILITY CLAIM FOUGHT Insurance Company Contests on Ground Employer Violated Law by Hiring Boy for WTjoso In jury Judgment Is Given. " The United State. Court ye.terd.y declined to declare th. Orefon child labor law unconstitutional. Neither wu th. lw sustained. Judge Robert S. Be.n Jut refused to interfere with a statute which has stood for IT years, and which was being attacked by the Wind Rler LAimber Company In an at tempt to collect an employers' liability Ineuranc. contract. The case was the result of th. injury of a boy named lavld Westman. em ployed at the sawmill of th. company on th. Wind River as an oiler. On September J4. 10. Westman was se verely Injured while la the discharge of his duties and after a legal battle r poured Judgment agalnt th. Wind River Lumber Company for $5000. At that time the lumber company carried an Indemnity policy with the ankfort Marine, Accident A Plate alas. Company. In which a clause was Incorporated Intended to relieve the Insurance company In case of accident t. any person employed In violation of any of the laws of the state. After the Wind River Lumber Company had been declared to be responsible for the Injury to young Westman. It brought suit In th. Federal Court for Indem nity from the Insurance company. The j.-raofort Insurance Company In its tnvwer set up the child labor law of Oregon as a defense. It alleged that the boy was under the age at which the Lumber Company could legally jrv. htm employment, that Westmsn required to work more than 10 fcours per day and that th. boy was S. not attending school, all of which is required by the act or uJ. The Wind River Lumber Company In a demurrer raised the question of th. constitutionality of the act of 18S. The demurrer was overruled. The final determination of the case la awaited with much Interest by em ployers of labor and Insurance com panies, many of whom are said to be not only employing children under the legal age. but are protecting them selves through insurance. TWO LOSE CLAIMS, OXE WIXS Federal Court Decides Contexts Un der Timber and Homestead U Peculiar manipulations of th. timber and stone act as applied to the public lands were brought out In three casAs passed upon by Judge Robert S. Bean In the United States Court yesterday morning. Harry W. Dunn, of Eugene, lost a Lane County timber claim be cause the Government proved that he had erroneously proved up on th. land as agricultural, whil. W. H. Glenn, of Eastern Oregon, lost his claim because he had taken agricultural land under the timber and stone act.-- Harry W. Dunn was In business at Eugene In 101 when he filed on the land. He said he had lived on the property continuously for two years, and bad cultivated a large part of It. The District Attorney succeeded In showing that Dunn had newer lived on the property, nor In any other man ner compiled with the law. Dunn did not resist the Government. After the Government officers had attacked the patent secured by W. H. Glenn, the defendant being charged with having taken agricultural and grazing land under the timber and stone act. the owner of. the land raised on demurrer the question that the patent barred the United States from inquiry Into the representations by which It was secured. Judge Bean overruled the contention and th. case will go to trial on Its merits. But In the third case decided the settler won a clean cut victory over the special ' agents and th. offlc. of the United States attorney. James H. Fisher was accused of having filed on ltd acres of Wallowa County timber land after having made an agreement to turn the land- over to C. R. Elliott. Elliott was charged with having fur nished the money to buy the land. The complaint was based on the evidence of a Wallowa County cltlsea with whom Elllbtt had a standing quarrel, and who professed to hav. knowledge of th. conspiracy by which th. land was acquired. Both Fisher and Elliott denied knowledge of the transaction. The court ruled that the unsupported evidence of the Wallowa County cltl sen was Insufficient to counteract the denials, and th. patent was allowed to stand. SWEDE DISLIKES DEBT Homesteader Would .Pay for Xlght's Lodging In Police Station Hallway. "Ay tank ay batter pay for my room now," said Robert Jensen, an elderly Swede, at the desk at the police star tion yesterday. "Let's see what room did you occupy. Mr. Jensen r asked Bailiff Circle. "Ay slant out in d' hallway," replied Jensen. Jensen, it wss found, had been a lodger at the station the night before. He lived on a timber claim near the city, and receives remittances from Sweden. Saturday he came to the city to get his remittance and with only 6 cents In his pjcket. found that the money ad not arrived. Being without a place of shelter, he applied at the police station and was allowed to sleep In the corridor. Yesterday, when he returned to the station, he had his hands full of money and wished to settle for his accommo dations. The belated remittance hal arrived. Jensen was told that In con sideration for his honesty in returning to make payment, there would be no charge. He went away not quite satis fled, saying that he always wished to pay for what he received. REGISTRATION NOW 20,375 Monday, 380 Electors in Multnomah County Qualify aa Voters.

Porter, Who Defends Suit, ' Says He Remarried Mrs. Porter on Promise That She Would Control Her Temper. Because Leonard W. Porter shaved with his mirror in the kitchen window. Mrs. Lola W. Porter, his wife, threw his razor strop in the fire, he alleges in his answer to her divorce complaint, filed In the Circuit Court yesterday. He says she accused him of placing the looking glass In the window that he might make eyes at the women who passed along the street. The Porters were divorced once before and remarried. Porter said he did not contest that suit because he did not have the funds. He denies that he made i any promiws m ir- " - r married her. that he would "be good," but Says On ine ouwr uauu vnai- ow promised to curb her temper, and that the second marriage took place at her solicitation at Pendleton, October 15, 19. . Porter goes on to say that about a week before he left her his wife began to throw his shirts and clothing In the fire while he was on the porch holding the baby, telling him if he wanted to save his clothes he had better leave the house. She spent the time when she should have been getting breakfast, he declares, standing at the window, watch ing for women with whom she suspected her husband was In love to pass. He was relieved, he declares, when she lay abed and allowed him to prepare his own breakfast. - He say. she Is not a fit person to have the custody , of the children, as she once beat the little girl with a stick two Inches thick and four feet long. At an other time, he says, she beat th. child attar h hurl retired for the night, until he feared for the child', life. At still another time, when In a rage, says Por ter, his wife struck the little boy, who was sitting In a chair, with such force on the mouth that he fell over backward. The couple own property at 238 East Sixty-fourth street North. In order to file his complaint it was necessary for Porter to apply to Judge Gantenbein yes terday for -an order setting aside the de fault order, previously made, the time In which Porter should have filed his answer having lapsed. I Rufy Hallal filed a divorce suit In the Circuit Court yesterday against Dalla Hallal, whom he married in Portland, April 18, 1909. He says she deserted blm May 18, 1809. Wreckers . Are - Restrained. A restraining order preventing O. W. Hodges, of the Portland Wrecking Com pany or others, from tearing down the saloon at the corner of Third and Tarn hill streets, where the Baker Theater stood, was filed with the clerk of the Circuit Court yesterday, having been signed by Judge Gatens. Jacob Hahn was required to give a bond of $1000 to se cure Donald McKay, owner of the prop erty, against loss. McKay represented In an answer filed last Friday that each week's delay In the construction of his new six-story building on the corner meant a loss of about 31600 to him. PIPES TO ADVERTISE CITY From Newark, X. J., to Portland, Country Will Hear of Latter. All the country along a direct railway line from Newark, X. J., to Portland will know that this city is eoon to be pro vided with a new water conduit of im pressive slse. When the 800 flat cars that are to carry the new 54-inch steel pipes for the second line between the Bull Run reservoir and the city start from the factory at Newark they will be suitably decorated with large white letters) announcing the fact that they are to be used In Portland to con vey In time the purest water that flows. Captions for the signs were prepared at the Commercial Club yesterday and were telegraphed to an advertising firm in New York last night. A corps of expert sign writers will go to work in the railroad yards at Newark toda and will paint .the words upon each car of pipes as it leaves. Local commercial Interests say this Is one of the most effective forms of ad vertising that could be devised, as by the size of the pipes those who e?e them will understand that a city that uses so many of them can be of no small Importance. WDMA1. IS ROOSTER Miss Cameron Press Agent for White Salmon Valley. APPLE SHOW PROJECT ON She Wants Washington Fruit to Be Entered in Oregon Exhibition on Same Basis as Native Prod ucts Impression Is Made. . Enter, the woman press agent. She has come to Portland In the person of Miss Edna Cameron of the White Salmon Valley, Wash. Miss Cameron visited the Commercial Club yesterday and as an advertising aid to her home community, she made a roost favorable Impression. "What I came to Portland for," she said after she had Introduced herself all around, "Is to get representation for our valley In the Portland apple show. Our section is virtually a part of Oregon anyway and the entire dis trict is directly tributary to Portland more so than it Is to any city in Wash ington. For this reason I think the in terests at the head of the apple show should allow our fruit to be exhibited and be given prizes the same as the apples from your own state." Having delivered herself of this little speech, which was strengthened in Its effects by convincing emphasis and natural gestures with her hands. Miss Cameron waited diplomatically to see what impression her remarks had made with her hearers. The logic of her argument and the evident sincerity of her purpose at once paved the way for the probable entrance of the prized White Salmon Vailey apples at the forthcoming ex hibition. Officers of the Commercial Club told her so. Satisfied that she Tiad succeeded In her mission as far as It was possible, on her first visit, she started to discuss the affairs of her home valley and to ask questions about Portland. It was only then that she modestly announced that she was secretary of the White Salmon Valley Development League and the authorized purveyor of In formation regarding the merits of that particular strip of Northwest country. "I believe the state boundary is only an Imaginary line anyway," she said, "and It , should not keep our apples from your show. "Many Portland men are Interested In the White Salmon Valley, and we think our fruit should have a chance for the prizes, as well as Hood River, which Is no nearer Portland, nor any more direct tributary country. Our new orchards are coming into bearing nicely and this year's crop is the best and heaviest the White Salmon country has ever had. On this account, we be lieve we could make a good exhibit at the .Portland show. "Our people are much Interested now In the construction of the boulevard down the Columbia River Valley on the Washington side. Good roads are needed and this project Is under way but It cannot go too fast, to suit the White Salmon country." CLEANSES THE SYSTEM EFFECTUALLY; DISPELS COLDS. AND HEADACHES DUE TO CONSTIPATION.
