.THE. MORNING . OREGONIAN, FRIPAY, JULY 1 1, ;1913. LEGAL FIGHT BEGUN prohibiting the transfer of saloon It censes during the present administra tion. A number of saloon men were in conference wltb the Mayor nearly all afternoon. Liquor dealers claim the plan to stop transfers of license will interfere with legitimate sales of saloons. It is claiirfed the proposed anti-transfer or dinance would result in severe loss to the saloonman who wished to dispose of his business and retire. The Mayor said that he had no de sire to inflict any hardships -on any owner of a saloon, but merely intended to enforce the model liquor law, which, he says, provides against the granting of saloon transfers. After the meeting, Mr. Albee said he had not changed his ideas or intentions. The conference, he declared, was merely for the pur pose of fretting the saloon side of the question. "I do not intend to do anything un reasonable," said the - Mayor,' "and I Hi SPOKANE RECALL W Green Stamps Bring this coupon for Extra S. & H. Green Trading Stamps.

SPOKANE, Wash., July 10. (Special.) On petition of C. B. Lynch and J. R. Morford, acting: for the Central Labor Council, Superior Judge William A, .Huneke today signed an alternative writ of mandate directed against, the City Council, commanding: the Council to call a recall election against Mayor Hlndley and Commissioner Falrley be fore July 21, 10 o'clock, or show cause at that time why such an election should not be called. The alternative writ today Is the first gun in the lepal battle which la ex pected to be wagred up to and through the Supreme Court, as a result of the refusal of the City Council to hold a recall election in connection with the general election next Fall on the 15 per cent recall petitions filed against the two city officials. The Council refused on the ground that the per cent for any sort of a re call is now 25 per cent, and that all the names must be registered voters. These are the provisions of the state constitutional amendments, adopted by the people last Kali, and of the act of the State Legislature passed subse quently making the ' constitutional amendments operative and. providing a procedure. Attorneys Burcham and Blair, act ing for the labor unions, who obtained the alternative writ today, are contend ing that the constitutional amendments and Legislature's act dQ not apply, and that the city charter recall, with which the petitions of recall comply, still pre vails, or did prevail prior to the date the Legislature's act became effective in June, and before which date the pe titions were filed. In rejecting the petitions the Council acted on the advice of Corporation Counsel H. M. Stephens, who will, rep resent the city in the court procedure started today.

SCHOOL FAIRS ARE MANY XTJMEROITS DISTRICT EXHIBITS, TOO, WILD BE SEEN. Following Conference With County Superintendents, Chief Cliurch - ill Issues Statement. SALEM, Or., July 10. (Special.) Su perintendent of Public Instruction Churchill, after a conference with the county school superintendents, who have been in session here, announced today that there would be at least 12 county school fairs and twice that many district exhibits this year, which. in connection with the individual ex hibits, will make the largest and best display of school children's industrial worn ever given in any state. The statement continues: It was' decided at this meeting to waive the rule requiring library tables, made and exhibited by the children at the State Fair, to be of certain dimensions (28x46 in), and permit the showing of different sized tables. We.ftnd Borne of the children do not un derstand what Is meant by "Best Account" in "poultry specials." A financial account is what is wanted a statement of receipts and expenditures, showing as nearly as possible the profit or loss, as the case may be, that the child has made with poultry business since January 1, 1913. The object is to have the children learn simple bookkeeping and get the habit of keeping accounts of all their business trans, actions. In doing this, they will be able to ascertain the cost of production and what they can get the most profit on. In connection with this financial account a nicely written statement regarding methods employed and experiences -with dif ferent details of the business will add to its value. We hope to have a large number of chil dren competing for the nice prizes offered for "Best Account,'" as it will be good ex perience for' them. ' J. Y.

Vote on Proposed Issue Bonds for Interstate Span Will Be Taken August 12. VANCOUVER, Wash., July 10. (Spe-claDT-rTuesday, August 13. will be the day, as previously announced, when the special election will be held to decide the proposition to bond Clark County for $500,000 to pay the State of Wash ington's share of building the proposed Pacifio Highway. ...The County Com missioners have pasBed a motion au thorizing the election to be held on that date. In the resolution adopted, the Com missioners say that it appears that the natural welfare and prosperity of Clark County require more, rapid, ef ficient and adequate means of trans portation than now exists between this county and the State of Oregon. This, it is declared, may be best se cured by Joining with "Multnomah County, or the State of Oregon. In the construction of an interstate toll bridge, spanning the Columbia River from some point In Vancouver to the opposite shore, and to do this it will be necessary to incur an indebtedness of $500,000. This is to be done by issuing coupon bonds for 20 years, redeemable after te"n years, and not to draw more than 6 per cent interest. The smallest bond is to be not less than $100 and the largest not more than $1000. Station Matron Requested. CENTRALIA, Wasfc.. July 10. (Spe cial.)

Prison Board Would Turn Convicts Over to State to Work During Probationary- Period. OLYMPIA, Wash., July 10.-(Special.) The Washington prison board is en gaged In working- out a plan for the disposition of convicts eligible for pa role, which In many ways is the direct opposite of the West honor system. The plan here alms to take only those which the prison board felt could not be trusted under ordinary parole conditions. Convicts of the "hobo" class, eligible for parole but notJo be trusted to report regularly, are to be paroled to the state for a probationary period of six months, furnished employ ment on 'the roads or in rook quarry ing and paid a wage of 50 or 75 cents a day and board. . The understanding is that this wage is to be retained un til the probationary period has been completed. Convicts who have no resident of "the state to stand as their "first friend" under the parole system, would also be helped by the proposed arrangement, members of the prison board believe. The state would stand as "first friend" to these convicts. Members of the board have felt It has been an injustice to refuse paroles to certain eligible prisoners, yet often when a parole has been granted the state has In a short time had to pay $60 as a reward for the return of the convict, if he had broken his parole. Members of the board and Governor Lister believe the new plan, which now is being worked out in detail, may set tle many difficulties. Vale Chinaman Bound Over. VALE, Or., July 10. (Special.)

The Chinaman owns a small stock of merchandise, a photo studio and a 12-acre ranch and prob ably could give bond, but many believe it -unsafe for him to appear on the streets while public feeling against him runs high.
