0. R. & N, Opposes Occupa
tion Tax Ordinance.
COUNCIL EXCEEDED POWERS
Unconstitutionality Alleged on the
Ground Tlmt There In an At
tempt to RcRuIate the Inter
state Commerce.
Tho ordinance of October 1, 1900. Impos
ing a tax on occupations -will be tested
In the courts on constitutional grounds. J
tuc o. K. & N. Co. refuses to
comply -with the provision taxing it $300
a year for doing business in Portland.
When License Collector McEachcrn opened
his mall at the City Hall yesterday morn
ing, he found this letter from President
Mohler:
Referring to your request tor payment of li
cense under ordinance No. 11784, our counsel
writes that he believes It Is unconstitutional.
"Under the circumstances, this company does
not feel Justified In making the payment.
A. L. MOHLER.
This was In answer to a request from
Collector McEachern for the tax. The
provision of the ordinance to which the
O. H. & 2s. Co. raises objection follows:
Each and every person, firm, corporation or
joint eiock company, commonly Known as j
eteam railroad companies, for business done
exclusively within the City of Portland, and
not Including any business done to or from
points -without the state, and not Including
any business done for the Government of the
"United State?. Its officers or agents, shall pay
o. license of $73 per quarter.
Asked to state the O. P.. & X. Co.'s
position, W. "W. Cotton, general attorney
of the company, said yesterday: "Our
objection Is that the tax is an attempt to
regulate inter-state commerce. There
lore the ordinance is a violation of tho
Constitution of the United States which
placed the entire control of the subject
of lnter-state commerce in Congress."
That Is all Mr. Cotton cared to say.
A lawyer who has examined the ordin
ance carefully, but not in connection with
the O. R. & X. Co.'s contention, says It
was the evident purpose of the Council
to keep Its hands off lnter-state business,
but that It is impossible under the or
dinance, to separate the state business
subject to the tax from the inter-state
business over which the Council has not
control. This Is a fine point for judicial
determination, the lawyer said, but In his
opinion the Council has usurped the pow
ers of Congress without intending to do
so- If the two classes of business in
volvedstate and lnter-state can be sep
arated, the ordinance, says the lawyer,
will stand; If not, it will be held to be
unconstitutional. It Is said that the views
of the O. R. & N. Co.'s legal department
coincide with those of the lawyer quoted,
but the only statement the company will-
give out for the present is that made by
Mr. Cotton yesterday.
Collector McEachern sent President
Mohler's letter to City Attorney Long.
That official had nothing to say last night
other than that the tax ordinance would
be enforced against the O. R. & N. Co. He
would not say what the first step would
fee. Under the ordinance the city may

FREE BEER FOR BOYS.
Disgraceful Orsjr at Fulton Which
a Father Approved.
t
Cases arising out oi the pranks of un
ruly boys are becoming so frequent in
the Municipal Court that Judge Cameron
declared hereafter that he would hereafter
hold the guilty ones responsible.
Li. Kommonzene, a Russian tanner, liv
ing at Fulton, had been arrested for
assault and battery on the person of the
12-year-old son of John Almela, a carpen
ter residing In the same locality. The
evidence disclosed the fact that a general
beer drinking frolic was being Indulged
in on the Macadam road last Saturday
night. About 40 persons, most of whom
were boys, were drinking beer In the
glare of a street arc light, when the de-
j fendant was struck with a chip. He Im-
meaiateiy approacned tne boy and knock
ed him over, for -which he was arrested.
The lad said he had drunk two or three
schooners of beer himself, and that -two
younger brothers were also being treated.
He denied having thrown the chip at the
tanner, though he admitted having an
noyed him on a former occasion.
The boy's father was on hand and also
partook of the free beer, he said, and
saw no harm In permitting his sons to
be on the streetat 11 P. M., as a lot of
othpr boys were there also.
Judge Cameron thought .both complain
ing witness and defendant were guilty of
assault and battery, though no charge had
been preferred against the boy. The
father was informed that his boys would
be taken away from him and given in
charge, of the Boys' and Girls' Aid So
ciety, unless he took better care of them.
Steps will also be taken to find out who
is giving beer to minors in Fulton, in
order to make an example of the law
breaker. Sentence was suspended in the
case of Kommonzene.

OUTLINED FUTURE WORK
TOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSO
CIATION. ,
President Strong:, of the University
of Oregon, Commends it Educa
tional Classes Formed.
That the recent organization of a Young
Women's Christian Association has taken
deep root in Portland was made manifest
last night at a well-attended public meet
ing held under the auspices of the asso
ciation In Grace Methodist Episcopal
Church. Despite the weather and numer
ous counter-attractions, the body of the
church was filled with people, a great ma
jority of whom were women, all "of them
deeply Interested In the work.
President Frank Strong-, of the Univer
sity of Oregon, was the principal speaker.
Ho earnestly commended the work of the
association. It tended, he said, to raise
the ideals of young women. Character
Is molded by environment, he declared,
and the central idea of the association
was to place proper surroundings about
young women. The problem, of dealing
with the latter was Infinitely more dif
ficult than that of dealing with young
men. It was possible to reclaim a sin
ning man. but Christianity had as yet
but imperfectly devised a plan of redeem
ing an erring woman. Hence the neces
sity of surrounding girls with proper In
fluence at the starting point of their ca
reer was most urgent.
"The century which has Just closed,"
said President Strong, "was one of Indi
vidualistic tendencies. The one upon
which we are now entering will, accord
ing to all present signs, bo one of con
centration and organization. No organ
ized effort can be better than one which
aims to strengthen and develop true,
earnest womanhood."
Mrs. C. K. Lawrence, chairman of the
educational committee of the associa
tion, announced that classes had been ar
ranged for in music, French, lectures on
art, bookkeeping, stenography, penman
ship, English, sewing, embroidery, cook
ing, botany and physical culture. All of
these classes will be In charge of com
petent instructors, and tho fees In each
Instance will be so moderate as to permit
the admission of young women of the
most slender means. Membership in the
association Is a requisite to class mem
bership. Mrs. "W. J. Honeyman, the president of
the association, made a few remarks, In
which she stated that a cottage at the
seashore had been placed at the disposal
of the organization during the Summer
months, where the members could secure
board at actual cost. Mns. Honeyman
also announced that the formal opening
of the association headquarters would
take place on Tuesday evening, April 2.
The rooms are on the fifth floor of the
Macleay block, corner Fourth and Wash
ington streets, being those recently va
cated by the Oregon Telephone Company.
Mrs. Lu E. Rockwell outlined the Bible
study work of the association. It was
the Intention, she said, to hold an after
noon service on each Sunday at 3:30. The
first of these services will be held In
the association rooms, on Easter, ono
week from next Sunday.
Miss Alma F. Hunt, the general secre
tary, spoke briefly concerning the city
work of the association. It Is planned,
she said, to organize an employment
bureau, which will furnish work In all
lines, and which will not "by any means
bo confined to the furnishing of domes
tic help. It is also aimed to serve a
lunch during the noon hour, and to es
tablish a boarding-house register, by
which quarters can be furnished to
strangers coming to the city, or to trav
elers temporarily detained here. Event
ually a gymnasium will be added to the
other features of the association.
"It will be observed," said Miss
Hunt, "from the explanation of the
workings of the association given
here tonight, that we aim to
meet practical needs. This is ex
emplified in the outlining of our course
of study. We do not attempt to give
Instruction in branches which are roere-
I ly fashionable, but .only in those which
are useful and Instructive.
H. W. Stone, general secretary of the
Young Men's Christian Association, pre
sided over the meeting, and following
President Strong's address. Miss Metta
Brown sang a solo. Dr. J. R. T. L,a
throp, pastor of the church in which the
meeting was held, opened with prayer,
and closed with a benediction.
KEARNEY-TILFORD.
Marriage of a "Wealthy Portland
Widow to an Old Friend.
D. Walter Tllford, formerly of Indian
apolis, Ind., and Mrs. Sarah M. Kearney,
of Portland, were married yesterday after
noon at the bride's residence, 335 West

performed by Rev. W. S. Gilbert, pastor

nessed by a few family friends. Mr. and
Mrs. Tllford left over the Southern Pa
cific in the evening for New Orleans and
Florida. After spending soyeral weeks in

OPPOSITION INCREASING.
Propertr-Ovraers Pressing: Their
Protests Against Closing: Streets.
The property-owners In Holladay's Ad
dition are becoming thoroughly awakened
in regard to the vacation of streets in
Sullivan's Gulch. Some of them were at
the City Hall yesterday, thinking there
was to be a Council meeting, and the
matter was coming up. It appears that
because the officials of the Oregon Real
Estate Company do not state definitely
what they Intend to do with the property
where the streets are to be vacated, the
people who bave bought property In the
addition are determined to prevent the
vacation of the streets.
There is one rather numerously signed
petition before the Council now, and oth
ers are being circulated, to which it is
alleged 200 more signatures will be ob
tained. The property-owners Intend to
present a petition asldng for a bridge
across Sullivan's Gulch at Sixth street,
and say that there will be enough signers
to the 3titlon to Insure the bridge being
built
There was no visible opposition to the
vacation of the streets when the matter
first came before the Council, and it
might have gone through, had not the
CHy Engineer insisted on a definite right
of way for a sewer being granted through
the gulch. Then the resident property
owners wanted to know definitely what
was going to be done with the property
after the streets were vacated.
. The officers of the real estate company
scout the idea that they intend to do any
thing to injure property in the vicinity, as
the company Is the principal property
owner there, and would not wish to injure
themselves. If they would state definite
ly what they intend to do with the prop
erty, they might be able to convince the
people that rhelr scheme Is a good one,
and for the best Interests of all con
cerned. t

BAPTIST MISSION WORX
State Society Hears Reports and
Elects Oillcers.
The annual meeting of the Woman's
Baptist Foreign Missionary Society, of
this state, was held yesterday In the Third
Baptist Church, Vancouver avenue and
Knott street. East Side, and was fairly
well attended by representatives from the
churches. The session opened In the
morning at 10 o'clock, Mrs. M. I. Driggs,
president, in the chair. The most of the
forenoon was taken up with receiving re
ports from the different churches, some
being given In writing and others verbally.
All indicated progress and prosperity
along the line. The most interesting and
important report was rendered by Miss
Carrie O. Mlllspaugh, the regular fleld
missionary for Oregon. She told In de
tail of her work for the past year, show
ing that she had traveled all over the
state, visiting the remotest districts, trav
eling 5000 miles on the railways, stages, on
horseback and In other ways. Her work
was to conduct religious meetings, make
addresses, attend all kinds of gather
ings, write letters and promote the spread
of tho gospel. Miss Mlllspaugh has been
field missionary for two years, and In
that time she reported she had taken,
four weeks' vacation. After hearing the
Teport she was continued in the Oregon
ROUGH SPOTS.
Good Food Smooths Them Over.
"There Is probably nothing In the world
that produces as much happiness as the
peculiar feeling that comes over the mind
when well fed with nourishing food that
particularly rebuilds the brain, and makes
everything on earth have a rosy tint.
Ambition is renewed, spirits are the most
sanguine and confidence has retored that
feeling within us which carries us over
the rough places."
So writes a man who was built up from
a wretched Invalid to a fine condition of
health by changing- his diet and using
Grape-Nuts Food-
"There is no sense of enjoyment equal
to that of being well physically and men
tally. I can hardly realize that such a
transposition has been made. Frbm being
ill tempered and disagreeable I have
changed to something like enjoyment of
the society that I had grown to avoid.
From feeling that life was not worth liv
ing. I now foel that I would like to live
always.
"I inclose a sample of my handwriting
showing my nervous condition before
using Grape-Nuts Food, and you can com
pare it with my signature to this letter."
The writing done while he was In a
nervous, ill-fed condition, is shown on
an old time-check and reports a serlps of
dates when he was absent on account of
sickness. His signature was made in lines
that consist of minute waves or wiggles,
showing the desperately weak condition,
while the signature to the letter Is re
markable for Its clear penmanship.
It Is the old story over and over again
that when a man Is broken down because
he exhausts the gray matter in the nerve
cells and brain from overwork and im
proper food, he can rebuild that gray mat
ter by using Grape-Nuts, for this food
contains phosphate of potash direct from
the natural grains of the field, and -this,
united with the albumen of the grain,
makes the only combination that will re
build this peculiar soft, gray substance.
