It was this last order that brought about the conflict today. NON-SUPPORT LAW UPHELD County Judge Cleeton Disagrees With Judge Morrow's Views. Despite Judge Morrow's ruling that the state nonsupport law Is unconstitu tional County Judge Cleeton will con tinue issuing warrants for delinquent husbands and fathers and will continue to operate under Its provisions. He dis agrees with Judge Morrow on the ques tion of the validity of the law. Dis trict Attorney Evans evidently does also, for he has Instructed his deputies to keep right on with the prosecution of these cases. "The law states that the Circuit and County Courts shall have concurrent jurisdiction in the administration of this law," said Judge" Cleeton. "That being the case I fail to see where Judge Morrow secured the right to review my action. This is a beneficlent law and it has accomplished a great deal of good. I do not want to see It k'lled if there Is any way of preventing It." Judge Cleeton said that he was be sclged yesterday morning by women who had seen articles regarding Judge Morrow's opinion in the newspapers and Vho were agraid that payments from their husbands would stop.

CHINATOWN IS AT WAR Date of New Year Celebration Sets Old and New by Kars. AX FRANCISCO. Frb. 1. (Special.) San Francisco Chinatown is In tue throes of civil war. Loyal adherents of the Young China party are arrayed in verbal warfare against those who still are faithful to the fallen Manchu dy nasty. All hinges on the celebration of the old Chinese New Tear, which be gins Wednesday. Supporters of the republic celebrated January 1 as their New Year and re fused to Tecognize the old Manchu week of holiday. Conservatives, in cluding scores of the wealthiest mer chants, still recognize the old Chinese calendar. To complicate the. situation, a proc lamation calling for a celebration of the old New Year was torn down and jtrnvH The vandalism, it is said. has been traced to a supporter of the new republic. the revolution there has been friction in the colony. The older Chinese say they were in the custom of settling their business affairs, pay ing their debts and closing their books at the close of the Oriental year and that customs cannot be changed In a hum. The vount men say they will never consent to- the old order of things again. " ' ASQUITH E CONSERVATIVES SEE MOTIVE IS LLOYD-GEORGE'S SPEECH. Heliof Exnre! That Chancellor AVould Supplant Premier Leader of Party. LONDON, Feb. 1. The speech last night of David Lloyd-George, Chan cellor of the Exchequer, before the Na tional Liberal Club on the land ques tion, has caused a sensation. The Conservatives declare It is a protest against Premier Asquith's refusal to make the question the leading feature of the Liberal programme ot mis ses sion after home rule, and that Mr. Lloyd-George is attempting to sup nlant Mr. Asauith as party leader by appealing fdV his party's support against his chief. The report of his Investigating com mittee is awaited with interest and In the meantime a small coterie of conservatives are contributing to the gaiety of nations by conducting what they call a "radical plutocracy." They assert that great manufacturers who were prominent in the Liberal party and "newly-rich" landowners treat their workmen and tenants far less con siderately than do the old aristocracy. They have sent to them a series of questions designed to prove this, and propose to publish the results along side the report of the Chancellor's com mission. In his speech Chancellor Lloyd George said the reports of his commis sion would prove that "hundreds of thousands, if not millions of men, wo men and children are living under con ditions, with, regard to wages, hous ing and labor conditions, which ought to make this great empire hang its head in shame." HOBOES EJECT LEADER HOW TRIES TO TALK SOCIALISM AT CONVENTION. 'Weary Willies". Cry Down Assertion That "Millionaire) Hobo" Is Philosophical Anarchist. NEW ORLEANS,-Feb. 1. James Eads How, the self-styled "millionaire hobo leader," who first organized the Casual, Unskilled and Migratory Workers of the World, and called the first National hobo convention, was repudiated as a leader by the hoboes in convention here today. How tried to inject Socialism into the proceedings and today the for mer leader was told to get out. Tired of How and the monotonous fight between him, and President Jeff Davis over the question of Socialism, the hoboes broke up the convention of the International Brotherhood Welfare Association, threw How and principals out and organized a "hobo mass meet ing." How declared he was not a So cialist, but merely a "philosophical anarchist" and tried to tell the dele gates that Jeff Davis was himself a dyed-in-the-wood Socialist. The hoboes, however, howled How down and stood by Davis. "Down with How and his postage stamp philosophy; he has never given us any of his mythical millons," shout ed Davis and the hoboes yelled. After appropriating $1 for the pur chase of tobacco for hoboes in jail here, the convention adjourned to meet in the open air on the riverfront on Sunday afternoon. Eugene Bank Chartered.

Portland's niuncipally owned water works, which furnish the city with one of the purest and most plentiful sup plies of water that is enjoyed by any town, larfte or small, in America, are what is commonly known as a "good business proposition," according: to the annual report of Frank T. Dodge, water superintendent, just rendered to Mayor Kushligrht and the water Board. The cash receipts for water sold dur ing; 1912 were $778,013.55. Of this amount I207.S66.76, or 26.6 per cent, were spent in operation and mainte nance. The Interest on bonds was 29.5 per cent, and 13.8 per cent went into the sinking? fund, leaving a balance of 30.1 per cent available for Improving and extending the waterworks. An indication of the healthy condi tion of the system is shown by the fact that the cash balance on hand De cember 31, 1912, was $90,883.20, as against $6349.34 cash balance Decem ber 31, 1911. Growth la Saowm. The remarkable growth of the city is evidenced by the fact that the re ceipts for 1911 were 16.4 per cent more than for 1910, and that for 1912, despite the fact that on January 1 of that year the flat rate for an ordinary dwelling having one bath and one toilet was reduced from $12 to $8, ot 25 per cent, the receipts were approx imately 3.8 per cent more than in 1911. In the 26 years that the city has owned and operated its waterworks, the gross earnings have been $10,190,- 104.35, or about $4000 more than the cost of the system as it exists at present. The cash receipts for water sold in these 26 years total $9,366,513, and this amount has been expended as follows: . For operation and repairs, 20.2 per cent; Interest on bonds, 34.5 per cent; sinking fund, 5.2 per cent, and the re mainder, 40.1 per cent, the net surplus for purchasing property, extending mains, etc. Investment Exceeds $10000,000. In brief, there has been a net sur plus -of $3,761,337.97. which, with the $6,400,000 from bonds sold and the $70, 585.20 net premiums thereon, together with the $250,000 'East Portland bonds," has enabled the city to acquire a water works system costing $10,186, 952.10. Of these bonds, $1,250,000 and the In terest thereon ate paid from a general tax, and the balance, $5,150,000 and the interest thereon are paid from the re ceipts for water sold. Before the consolidation of the City of East Portland with the City of Port land, the former city had issued $250,- 000 of 6 per cent bonds for constructing waterworks. After consolidation these water bonds were turned over to the Water Board and the latter required to pay the Interest on the bonds. During the year 1903, soon after the present charter took effect, the en tire property controlled by the Water Board was appraised at $8,616,000 by estimators employed by the city to 'ap praise all its property. Many Additional Made. Since then the Water Board has added $2,767,132.71 by expenditures for extensions, fire hydrants, etc.,' $240, 631.31 for improving reservoirs. $119, 789.55 for a third submerged pipe across the Willamette River, $121, 368.98 for purchase of Mount Tabor, Piedmont, Woodlawn, Woodmere and Woodstock waterworks. $69,698.83 for purchase of site and erection of build ing for branch water office In East Portland and for additional property and erection of branch water office in Albina and various smaller buildings throughout the city; $2000 for pur chase of site .for Vernon standplpe, $5859 for rebuilding the station in-Al-bina, $9180.44 for improvement of real property, $2,129,793.39 for Bull Run conduit No. 2 and reservoirs Nos. 5 and 6. and $7866.77 for preliminary work on new headworks. Thi would make the present value $11,989,320.98. pro vided the appraisement In 1903 was cor rect. It Is declared that the Increase in the value of real property will offset whatever depreciation there may have been in the water mains and other equipment. Supply Increased In 1911, Until the completion in 1911 of the second conduit from Bull Run River and the two additional distributing reservoirs, the daily supply of water by gravity was 22.500,000 gallons and the reserve capacity of the four reser voirs in the city was 67,000,000 gallons. The dally flow through the second con duit is 45,000,000 gallons and the ca pacity of the two new reservoirs is 125.000,000 gallons. The total capacity of the six dis tributing reservoirs In the city is now 192,000.000 gallons and the total daily gravity supply is (7,000,000 gallons, said to be sufficient for three times the population of 207,214 shown by the census of 1910. "The water," says Superintendent Dodge in his report, "flowing by grav ity through two steel conduits for a distance of 24 miles from Bull Run River, in an uninhabited forest re serve In the Cascade Mountains, is pure, cool and clear at all seasons, without being Altered or stored in any settling reservoir, and is one of Port land's most valuable assets. Portland charges for water $9 per annum, sched ule rate, for an average dwelling, and the meter rates per 1000 gallons of 16 2-8 cents for the first 4500 gallons, 13 1-3 cents for the next 150,000 gal lons and 10 2-3 cents for quantities over 154.500 gallons, supplied inside the city limits, compare favorably with' the average charges for 374 other cities, which are, respectively, as fol lows: "Schedule rate $13.18 and meter rates 26 cents for smallest quantities and 9 6ents for largest" 13,221 Meters! Are Ik I.e. There are now 13,221 meters in use; 22.1 per cent of all places supplied with water from the city mains are metered. Of tbe 43,670 dwellings, 23.3 per cent are supplied through meters, principally those where water Is likely to be U6ed wastefully in sprinkling or otherwise. Twenty-eight per cent of J the factories and all places other than dwellings are supplied through meters. The places using and paying for water during December, 1912, were-as follows: Dwellings. 43,670; apartments, 4336; hotels and lodging houses, 99; manu factories, 511; stores. 268S; saloons, 413; office buildings and banks, 155; churches, 249: schools public and priv ate 143; miscellaneous places 1722; a total of 54.481. -being an increase of 5672, or 10.4 per cent.

Three hundred policemen whose busi ness it is to find missing persons and know about everyone's comings and goings, are stumped by the query, al though they have the best of reasons for wishing to know. Arising out of the terrific muck-raking given Chief Slover and his men for their failure to keep the city clean, it was arranged early in the week that the officers should assemble for in struction in their duties as sanitary po lice. Yesterday was the time and the police clubrooms the place. They were there; day officers, just through with their work, first night officers Just ready to 'take charge of the city, and second night officers, just out of bed and still rubbing their eyes. The stage was set. barring the coming of the necessary Hamlet. The clock ticked, while from center to circumfer ence, excepting a few traffic officers, the city was without a guardian. Such a state could not last, and at length Chief Slover was forced to or der an adjournment. The missing lec turer had not been heard from at a late hour last night.

BOISE, Idaho, Feb. 1. (Special.) The final chapter in the famous news paper contempt case of this city, in which the Supreme Court of Idaho was accuser, judge and Jury in the trial of Richard Story Sheridan, C. O. Broxon and A. R. Cruzen, owners of the Cap ital News, who were cited for con tempt, was closed tonight when the newspaper men paid their fines of $500 each assessed by the court. The fines were raised through popular penny do nations received from every state in the Union and many parts of Canada. Had it not been for the fear that the court would not accept the sum in pen. nies as legal tender, the coppers would have been placed in the court's hands. Instead, they were hauled to a local bank on a dray and there deposited. Checks were drawn on the fund by the defendants to pay their fines, the newspaper men saving; the court and attaches the embarrassment of counting the pennies. The cdurt found the defendants guilty of contempt for publishing a criticism of its decision barring Pro gressive electors from the general elec tion ballot and for publishing Roose velt's address to the people of Idaho, in which he denounced the opinion as an attempt to thwart the .will of the people through "trickery and chi canery." The defendants also served ten days in jail. PREMIERE BIG SUCCESS Sebastian. Burnett Scores Heavily With Wonderful Tenor Voice. ABERDEEN, Wash., Feb. 1. (Spe cial.)
