THE MORNING OREGOXIAX. TUESDAY, APRIL 15, 1913. 10 DEFICIENCIES CITED III WATER BUREAU Report Made by Investigators After Careful Examination of Methods Used. NO CHECK SYSTEM FOUND fifteen Distinct Imperfections Pro voke Comment and Statement Is Made That Coot to Con mners Is ExcefwWe. Fifteen distinct deficiencies are Ion In the cltr water department In the third report of tho New York Bu reau of Municipal Research, made pub lic yesteroejr. The report wa made after a comprshenstT Investigation the methods of doln business in the the method of the Water Board ajoTernln the depart ment. "Tbe head of the water department, in the report. "Is the Water Board made up of business men. The private businesses of these Ave men exceed by manr times the total business of the municipality In amount of money turned over each year. The oresent revised revenue con troP does not attempt to discover or show whether all of tho money that oua-ht to be eharared Is actually charted. Obviously the taxpayer wants to know bow much revenue ounht to come from water aa well as that part 01 revenue duo from water which actually la re calved. IHseresaaey Is tZPUHtO. "Tho total consumption of water re ported by the Water Board Is worth llSi.so more than Is accounted for in Water Board reports. This flarure of J 13 4.000 Is the difference between the value of the total consumption of water reported at the lowest meter rate and the total revenues for 11. after deducting tho liberal official es timate of 150.000 supplied to the city's own streets, bulldlnKS. etc. Where this unaccounted-for water goes nobody knows and nobody has heretofore tried to And out. Pltometer tests will. however, be made in the near future. "Tbe superintendent and the en gineer disagree aa to the total amount of water actually consumed. "Although this discrepancy, under stated at U.0OO, may mean that me ter and flat rates are too low or that there Is enormous leak and waste either la the mains or among; nut-rate con aumers noboby knows and nobody la trrlnc to find out. "The present meter rates represent not the actual cost of wster and not a computed fair charge to consumers, large and small, but an estimate made some years ago of the probable amount of water used under the old flat rates. Ceot Declare Excessive. "Present-day consumers are not only paying more (or water than It costs to deliver It. but are giving to future generations present-day profits and are paying; the cost of Installing water mains formerly paid for by special as sessments. Since 17 S.4.000 of water profits have been osed for 'ex tending mains and construction.' "Of 57.000 users of wster only 1J.2I1 are now metered. "Supplied with the Information which Is now furnished to Portland's meter readers, a fair guesscr could read all the meters In the City of Portland without moving out of his room and without giving dissatisfaction to con sumers or arousing suspicion at the Water Board. Sometimes bad guess ing by Inspectors Is corrected by bet ter a-uessina. or by actual Inspection and meter readings, and monthly bills Jump up about 60. 100 and 500 percent. This condition should be correoted by requiring Inspectors to turn In the actual reading of meters each month." Red Tape Decried. Red tap In handling; the city health department affairs waa made the sub ject of a special report by the research officials yesterady. It ia shown that 11 slow processes must be gone through before any action can be taken to se cure a measure to preserve health.

Lister Names Colfax Grain Man. COLFAX. Wash, April 14. Governor Lister, while here today, appointed Fey- mour Manning, a local grain man. to the position of State Grain Inspector. Manning will establish his office In Tacoma. desks were beselged by equally large numbers, and the lines of waiting peo ple doubled up and down the long hall in a seemingly Inextricable confusion, and crawled foot by foot through the two doors which admitted them to the registration desks, where the clerks, under cover of an unceasing bombard ment of lightning questions and direc tions, passed them through the formal ity of registering as rapidly as sausages through a mill. Doors Close oa SOO. At o'clock the doors of the Court house were locked with 300 men and women still In line waiting to be regis tered, and many more outside seeking to come in. The remaining 300 in the hall filed In a dwindling line through the room and by 10 o'clock the great "3000 day," jwhlch marked the close of the first season of registration since the passage of the woman suffrage amendment, was closed. - All through the evening the Court house was the center of interest, not oly to those who sought to register, but to petition hawkers and to curi osity seekers, who appeared to find the registry, with Its kaleidoscope line, almost as exciting as a circus. At every one of the great windows oq tbe street side of the registration room, throughout the evening, great crowds of people were massed looking In and watching the progress of the work at the desk. In the hall outside, wherever space was available, petition hawkers combed tue crowd for newly registered voters to sign their documents, and carried on almost as thriving a busi ness as the registry clerks Inside. ROSARIArJS TO ATTEND SCORE GOING TO NORTH YAKI MA BLOSSOM FESTIVAL. Is It an Or a Real! Advertising Humbug y Straight Proposition? We'll let the reputation of this institution answer that question. We'll let these amazingly low prices answer that question, and we'll let the long list of people who have bought in this sale answer this question. We are closing out our wholesale department. We know that under present conditions only the most extraor dinary price inducements will sell these pianos; hence, we're making these extraordinary price inducements and we're making terms of ownership so easy that there isn't a family in Oregon, we are sure, that need now go without a piano, or a player piano. " ' Many Additional Fine Pianos and Player Pianos on Sale Today in the Nation's Largest Piano Sale to During; Summer It Is Planned Visit Koseburg;, Tacoma and Seattle Celebrations. The Royal Rosarlans yesterday ac cepted the Invitation from North Yak ima to attend the Blossom Festival at that city. May i, and will take part In the festival In full Rosarian uniform. Twenty-two of the Kosarians at the meeting at the Commercial Club, where it was decided to accept the Invitation, instantly pledged themselves to go on the trip and announcements will be sent out at once asking all members of the organization to arrange for reser vations for the trip. W. J. Hofmann, prima minister of the Rosarlans, presided over the meeting yesterday, and the following excursion committee was appointed: Frank E. Smith, W. E. Finxer. T. W. Reed, W. F. Ross, Frank McCrlllls and M. Moses- sohn, secretary. The trip to North Yakima will not, however, be confined to Rosarlans alone, but several business men of the city, who are not active members in the organization, will attend the festi val not In Rosarian uniform, and will greatly swell the representation. In previous years Seattle and Tacoma have sent large delegations of the "Potlatch Tlllicums" and V Montamara Tigers" to the North Yakima Festival, ana tnis season the Rosarlans are planning to outdo the delegates from the two other great Northwestern festival associa tions In their representation at tne Blossom Festival. This trip will open the season for the Rosarlans. During the Summer they plan to visit the Strawberry Festival at Koseburg". the Montamara Festo in Ta coma. the Potlatch in Seattle, the Pendleton Roundup and several other festivals. The visit to Koseburg will be made probably May 21 or 22. and the Kosarians will meet there the re turning delegation of Northwestern Admen from the annual Pacific Coast convention in Sacramento. Notes From St. Johns ST. JOHNS, Or., April 14. (Special.) The City Council held a special ses sion this evening, to close the busi ness of the old administration and (wear in the new Mayor and Council. Bills to the amount of $369.58 were allowed. Mayor A. A. Muck reported that he had accepted the resignation nt rMtv Rna-lneer C E. Andrew, and j that that position is now vacant. It It has been our aim always to carry out to the letter the very spirit of our advertisements, and everything in this sale will be found exactly as repre sented. As has been heretofore announced, our wholesale department has to be discontinued. Operating forty stores as we do, we have found that business increases so rapidly that we cannot taice care or au mat oners, even miousu a cash capital exceeding $3,500,000 is at our command. Most of the instrument- in our immense wholesale stock are brand new. Some are slightly shopworn. There are also a few slightly used pianos. We know that in order to close out this stock without delay extraordinary price concessions must be made, and therefore these low prices, and therefore these terms of payment. We do not know of anyone who has come here to see these pianos at these amazinclv low nrices who has failed or even hesitated to buy. There have been more pianos sold so fa: this month than in any month heretofore for many years. In this day no home is to be considered a home if it lacks the influences of good music. There is no reason why a good musical instrument should not be found in every Western home now. It need not be the costliest baby grand Checkering, or Kimball, or Sohmer, but surely every home is in position to pay $1 a week. For this price many elegant medium-size genuine mahogany pianos are offered for which regularly $375 is asked. . Highest grade new, warranted, beautifully finished, mottled walnut or fancy figured oak, largest sized instruments which generally cost $475 and $500, are now only $246. Make a first payment to show good faith and we will sell even these fine and costly pianos on payments of $1.25 a week. Surely this means a piano now for every home that aims to be a home. We realize that it woulcL be impossible to close out this stock if we insisted upon payment of all cash. For this reason, for the mere additional simple interest we arrange terms of payment to suit any reasonable buyer. Eilers Music House. AMBITION TO OWN A GRAND PIANO CAN BIS REALIZED NOW. In most families, muslo studies be gin with an upright.
