THE aiORXING OREGOMAX, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1920 KLAMATH ROW OVER COURTHOUSE REVIVES Attorneys Argue Remanding Motion for Supreme Bench. FIGHT DATES TO 1912 During Period of Altercation Be tween County and Contractor Two Buildings Started. Motion to remand to the circuit court the Klamath county courthouse case In which the J. M. Dougan com pany seeks to compel Klamath coun ty to accept the courthouse erected by them and to pay Jhe contract price with Interest, was argued before the supreme court at Salem Monday by C F. Stone of Klamath Falls and John R. Latourette and A. E. Reamei and fiarrlson Allen of Portland. The arguing of the motion Is but another chapter In the varied history of courthouse erection In Klamath oounty since 1912, during which period one courthouse has been par tially erected and another completed. Charges made by attorneys for the prosecution put the county in the light of having lost title to one un completed courthouse and as refus ing to pay for, while at the same time having secretly taken possession of, the courthouse completed by the J. id. Dougan company. Case Tried In Two Counties. The case originated in the circuit court of Klamath county but, owing to changes of venue, was tried in Jackson and later Douglas county. Judge Hamilton, circuit Judge at Roseburg. decided In favor of Klamath county and against the J. M. Dougan company July 15 of this year. The case was then appealed to the su preme court by the plaintiffs. The motion for remanding the case to the circuit court was made or the grround that the county court of Klamath county had secretly taken possession of the structure subse quent to the decision of the circuit court, obtaining the keys which had been delivered by the architect to the sheriff of the county, and using the building for public purposes. This alleged possession is said to be sub stantiated by the county commission ers secretly taking out fire insurance on the structure in favor of the county In the sum of $89,450. Site Revcrti to Iand Firm. Attorneys for the plaintiff further charged that a site described as block 10 in Hot Springs addition to Klam ath Falls, on which a courthouse had been partially erected and which had been characterized in the action by the defense as the legal court house site for the county, had re verted to the Klamath Development company as a result of the failure of the county to complete the court house. The act of the defendant county In takintr possession of the building Is declared by the petition to be an ac ceptance of the building and a com plete ratification of the contract be tween the J. M. Dougan company and the county, and a waiver of all right which the county may have had to repudiate the contract. The Hot Spring's site for a court house was acquired by the county in 1912 on a deed which provided for the erection of a structure to cost not less than $200,000. The failure of the county to erect the structure It was provided would mean the revert ing of the site to the Klamath De velopment company. Money was raised by tax levies and the building , was partially erected. Another Structure Built. Since that work was begun, another county court came into authority and the building, now the subject of legal action, wes erected on block 35 adjoining the frame structure oc cupied by the county court. The J. M. Dougan company which brought suit is a co-partnership con sisting of J. M, Dougan and R. E. Chrisroan and J. M- Dougan. In addition to Klamath county the following are made a party to the suit: R. H. Bunnell. Burell Short and Asa Fordyce, of the county court of Klamath county; C. R- De Dap, county clerk; Q. K. Van Riper, county treas urer; John Koontz, Frank Ward, Charles Doomls, Marlon Hanks, frank H. McCormack and E. E. Mc Claran. KNIGHTS OPEN CONCLAVE OREGON TEMPLAR COMMAXD ERY IN SESSION HERE.

Mrs. Mary McFarland, Victim, on "Wrong Side of Street When Struck, Is Testimony. Mrs. Mary McFarland of 431 Taylor street, who died Monday as a result of being knocked down by an auto mobile, came to her death through an unavoidable accident, according to the verdict of a coroner's Jury last night. John Gasser of Ridgefield, Wash., was the driver of the machine which struck Mrs. McFarland. Testimony at the Inquest showed that Mrs. McFarland had stepped off the curbing on the north side of Hawthorne avenue at East Seventh street and had signaled an east-bound street car. She was on the wrong side of the street to catch the car, which did not stop. Mr. Gasser was driving west on Hawthorne avenue and he declared that the woman stepped off the sidewalk about eight feet in front of his machine. The brakes on the automobile were tested yesterday by deputy sheriffs, who found them in good condition, and later In the day by Lieutenant Ervin and Deputy Coroner Goetsch, who pronounced the brakes defective. At the Theaters. lieilis. BT LEONE CASS BAER. McINTYRE AND HEATH, complete ly surrounded by an aggregation of cheerful girls, gorgeous trappings, flocks of scenery, several talented in dividuals and a raft of costumes, all of It served with catchy, lilting music and punctuated by dances, came to the Heilig last night in their newest of fering, "Hello, Alexander." James Mclntyre Is Alexander, for mer employe at the livery stable and later a bright and shining light In Mister Jones' Minstrels. Mr. Jones, who has not come across Alexander since the latter departed from the stranded minstrels, taking along the bass drum and an aggravated attack of pessimism, meets his one-time min strel man near the Tampa Bay hotel, which hover in the background of scene 1, act 1, and says "Why, hello Alexander!" From this point on their meetings in each of the several scenes in the three acts result in Alexander's grad ual absorption by Mister Jones. Alex ander pins his faith to Mister Jones with amazing credulity, considering the many occasions he has been flim flammed. He lends him money in one act, en gineers a romance in another and is almost annihilated by the real "gen tleman friend" of the dusky charmer, and later still listens to seductive promises of a life of case in Hawaii which he calls how d'ye do, and em bark as Mr, Jone's valet on a boat trip. As a culminating piece of mis fortune Alexander is persuaded to pose as a king and when the wrath of the victims falls Mister Jones gets completely from under and poor old Alexander receives the full burden. Into each of the scenes wander the two famous blackface comedians and they are very funny. Age has not told on them, and their spirit of comedy bubbles high. Mc Intyre's shuffling credulous easily impressed darky, poor 'in spirit and wearing the badge of his lowly call ing is true to type and his chuckles and eye rolling and seblance of des pondency are mirth provoking. Heath's darky is a different type, a pompous, conceited, important "cul lud" person, showy of dress, and over fond of big words which he trots into the conversation at every turn to awe the dejected Alexander. Their exchange of ideas is a joy. The production Is mostly vaudeville with the same performers occupying numerous places throughout the scenes.. The chorus Is big in numbers and is the bulwark of the piece In dancing. In the minstrel scene the clog dancing by the ensemble was splendid, A new musical comedy personality flashes across our horizon in Chic Barrymore, one of Sophie Tucker's proteges. She is very young and tal ented. She has a special virtuosity as a dancer, her singing voice is high and peculiarly pretty, she is charm ing of body and of a piquant dainti ness and cleverly manages to domi nate whatever scenes she enters. Her baseball specialty was extremely novel. To list the specialists would take two columns, but a few are so worth while that some mention must be made. A little ginger maid is Mabel Elaine, who coats herself in chocolate and is Eczema, a mulatto manicurist of vampire tendencies, who causes trouble for Alexander. She is a whirlwind dancer of eccen tric moods and most original. Her little figure flying through the scenes always called for continued applause. Another keen little maid Is Grace Deagon, who "lispths" through a clever specialty with a capital comedian. Homer Dickinson Two brilliant dancers are Brazil and Griffen, young men with winged feet under perfect control. One of the splendid spots in the performance is the singing by Vivian Holt and Lil lian Rosedale, both of whom are cul tured, charming women with exquis ite voices. They step into the action on two occasions to sing with rare charm and on each occasion received ovations. Both voices are high so pranos and one has lovely coloratura qualities. Scenlcally the piece Is pretentious and beautiful. The costumes are col- oriui ana Iresn and fine. The piece will be here the rest of the week. Cast. Col. Wlmlow ran Quintan Lieut.

TEACHERS CAUTIOUS ABOUT TEiRE No Action Taken at Meeting in Library Hail. SILENCE FOLLOWS ADVICE No One Has Word to Say After President of Association Urges Caution In Matter. Silence reigned at the meeting of the Portland Grade Teachers' associa tion yesterday in Library hall. The proverbial pin could have been heard if it had fallen after Mrs. Jennie Rich ardson, president of the association, had given her report of the meeting of the school board which she had at tended the night before. Mrs. Rich ardson urged .that the greatest cau tion be exercised "ly the teachers in any action they might take on the tenure question. She closed her halk by giving the several hundred teach ers assembled an opportunity to dis cuss the tenure. No one had a word to say. No one offered a motion just silence. "We'll hear the report of the com mittee on revision of constitution," the president announced after the omi nous silence which ' demonstrated that the teachers had taken her advice literally. As one teacher later said, "It's up to the board. Let them make the suggestions for changes in the tenure of office law." Voting I'haiKC Sn&gmted. The principal changes In the con stitution suggested in the report of Miss Harriet Thayer were found in the method of electing vice-presidents. According to the new plan the repre sentative in each building will give ballots to every teacher in her build ing qualified to vote and will then collect these ballots and send them to the secretary. Another change ad vanced is that the grade teachers re ceive membership cards which shall entitle them to votes at an election of the association., and which, after proper notification, they must show when attending closed or private meetings of the association. One of the teachers advocated making the dues $3 a year Instead of $2, as is now planned. The extra dollar, it was thought, would be used advantage ously in employing an attorney. Again no action was taken. Another suggestion was that 10 cents per cap ita be taken from the fellowship fund. Coming? Meeting; Announced. Miss Viola Orthchild announced the approaching meeting of the state teachers' association, which will be held in the Lincoln high school in Christmas week. The matter of the proper apportioning of the retirement fund will be a point that probably will come before this body. The teachers voted to send flowers to the Unitarian church In apprecia tlon of the kindness of the church folk in allowing them to meet there on two previous occasions. - This was the only aeiinite action taken except the mo tion to adjourn. The caution advised by the presi dent was manifest throughout the meeting. In summarizing her visit to the school board, Mrs. R'chardson said she had endeavored to give a clear statement of facts and that "at least she was able to tell the truth." TWO ACCUSATIONS FACED CIVIL FOLLOWS CLOSELY ON CRIMINAL CHARGE. S. Ellerman Has Unusual Ex perience In Court, but One Case Is Dismissed. While waiting in the courtroom to answer a criminal charge yester day, L. S. Ellerman found that he was wanted also on a civil charge. of which, he said, he had no previous Knowledge. The criminal case was dismissed by District Judge Jones, and Ellerman paid a grocery bill of 98 in a civil case. He said he had not Known the grocery bill was standing against him. In the criminal case Ellerman was accused of trespass by the Oregon Humane society, taierman was a for mer employe of the society, in charge of some of the land and kennels of the organization. On the land stood a house, which was given over to his use during the time he was caretaker. After he was discharged by the society he was ordered to leave the premises, said Mrs. F. M. Swanton. who appeared In court yesterday for the society. When he refused to leave suit was brought against him lor trespass. Ellerman declared he had had an Invitation from the present caretaker to visit him, and in view of this fact Judge Jones held that he could not be convicted of trespass. CITY AUTO MEN ELECT A. S.

Financial Hacking Will Be GlTen in Effort to Reduce Expenses Which Are Mostly Military. NEW YORK, Oct. 13. China's revo- llttlnnn nra V I nnH 1 aa Anri must not be gauged by internal disorders iirl Europe, according to Sir Charles Ad dic, head of the group of British bankers who are conferring here with representatives of the United States, France and Japan on an international consortium for the economic advance ment of China. Sir Charles spoke at a luncheon at time when dispatches from Shang hai brought rumors of overthrow of the Pekin government and proclama tion of a monarchy. , The British reoresentatlve. who is head of the Hongkong - Shanghai bank of London, characterized the Chinese as a people distinguished with a national capacity for self-gov ernment, with a standard of rectitude deeply rooted In the belief that might Is right. He asserted, however, that the high hopes entertained when China became republic are not being fulfilled, ex plaining that the three parties which have been in power have failed to provide a working constitution. China, politically, can only De eaie by her own exertions," he declared. The utmost this consortium can ao is to assist her efforts and initiative. By the contemplated action of the consortium, however, China can re duce her excessive military forces. which now absorb one fourth of the country's revenue." Speakers at the luncheon explained that no specific loan to China yet had been considered, but that an exten sive programme for getting the re public on its financial feet was being outlined. Absence of the United States from the councils of the league of nations was mentioned frequently and refer ences to the consortium as a means of continuing the bond between the late allies were cheered. Thomas W. Lamont chairman of the consortium, referred to it as a forge to weld together in a warm friendship the five nations partici pating in efforts to aid China. Of the league of nations, Mr. Jia- mont said there were some Americans for "the" league and some for "a league. 'There is a big defference between the definite and . the indefinite ar ticle," he continued. "However, let me assure our friends of England. France and Japan that America as a whole is just as strong for the arts of peace as they are and to enter Into an association that will sup ply our gallant allies in the late war with support in preventing such ca tastrophes in the future." Mr. Lamont stressed a statement that the bankers did not start out to form the consortium with an idea there was "lots of money to be made In China." On the contrary, the four governments went to the bankers and .asked them to help stabilize China by banking groups formed with a patriotic end. he said, adding that our ability to lend aid depends on the Investing communities in the various countries." The consortium has gone on reo- ord officially as welcoming the co operation of local Chinese capital. said a statement issued by the con ferees tonight. This co-operation -would be In the work of consortium In "development of China's public enterprises, build ing of railways, etc.," It said. m HARSH, SAYS BORAH COVENANT IN THEORY AND PRACTICE CONTRASTED. . S. Guarantee for Peace of World Protested by Senator and Scheme Held Impossible. MANCHESTER, N. H.. Oct. IS. President Wilson, in a speech at the peace conference, already the sub ject of widely published controversy between him and Senator Spencer of Missouri, declared that "If any cov enants of this settlement are not ob served, the United States will send her armies and navies to see that they are observed," Senator Borah of Idaho, asserted in an address here tonight. "The controversy between Senator Spencer and the president has been interesting," said Senator Borah, "not so much because it may illustrate the fallibility of memory, but because it shows how this league looks when you view It in Its practical work ings. The moment you descend from the opalescent empryean of theories to the world of concrete things it looks altogether different. So long as you confine yourself to the league on paper and dwell In the world of rhetoric everythingseems well. "But when you get down to the actual workings of the league. It seems harsh and autocratic and al together objectionable. When they tell us that the league will bring peace, everybody wants peace and so favors the league. But when you turn from theory to fact and see that It obligates us to send our boys across the sea, our army and navy, it creates an uproar of disapproval and hastens explanations and denials. Yet that is precisely what the league in its practical workings means." THEFT SUSPECT IS CAUGHT C. J. Paul Held While Possession of An to Tires Is Investigated. C. J. Paul. 27, was arrested at the Union station by Policemen Abbot and Ferry yesterday just as he was boarding a Southern Pacific train for Grants Pass. He is held for investi gation while the police discover how he came into possession of $500 worth of automobile tires which were stolen from a tire shop at 667 Wil liams avenue on September 28. The police say that most of the stolen tires were found at Paul's home, 85 Willamette boulevard.

In those words many people explain their nervous, weakened condition, loss of weight, pallor and the general appearance of invalidism. Medical men refer to the condition as post grippal neurasthenia. The symptoms of the disease are . lack of nervous tone. Irritability, melancholy and ex treme sensitiveness to sound, languor of body and mind, lack of appetite, disturbed and fitful sleep and vague pains in the head and back. The proper treatment is one of nu trition of the nerve ceils by means of a non-alcoholic tonic. As the nerves get their nourishment from the blood ! the treatment must be directed to ward building up the blood. Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills make the blood rich and red and give it the elements that are needed to restore strength to every part of the body. The experience of Mrs. Inez Hitch cock, of No. 1233 Acoma street, Den ver, Colo., will interest those wh'o are still suffering from the effects of in- fluenza. She says: "A- severe attack of Influenza left me in such a badly run-down condi tion that I began to despair of ever regaining my health. My complexion was sallow and my eyes were dull and expressionless. I had so little blood that I was always cold. I grew nervous, irritable and cross. I suf fered a great deal from indigestion and lost needed sleep. "A friend of mine one day urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She said they had helped her an-- she was so confident of the remedy that I got a box of the pills. I began to im prove almost from the first. My color Is good now.

TUTTLE, of Portland, Maine, who says she feels like she has taken a new lease on life since taking Tanlac. Ker rheumatism and other trou bles have been overcome. I- t t Tit "Tanlac is the grandest medicine on earth, and I Just wish it was so every weman who suffers like I did could know what it will really do," said Mrs. Uose E. Tuttle, of 293 Congress street. Portland, Maine, recently. "No one will ever know how I suf fered," she said. "My stomach was so disordered I had to be very careful about what I ate. Potatoes and other starchy foods would completely upset me. Frequently after meals I would have terrible pains in my stomach, my breath would get short, and I would have a depressed and uneasy feeling about my heart. Often I was troubled with pains under my shoulder blades and I frequently had bilious attacks. "I also suffered with rheumatism, and this, together with my other trou bles, was simply wrecking my health. T felt weak, nervous and rundown all the time, and seemed to be losing weight and strength every day. My sleep was poor, and often I was in such misery I wouldn't close my eyes all night long. "Before I finished my first bottle of Tanlac I realized I had at last found I tne right medicine. My conditionm proved dally as I continued taking Tanlac, my appetite picked up and I was soon eating three hearty meals every day without suffering in the least afterwards.
