The last day of Major Howe's admin
istration -was elenallzed by the unex
pected appointment of two Important
puttie officials, to fXi vacancies created
by resignation, and to bold over during
Mayor Williams' entire term of office.
at until the proposed new charter goes
into effect. In eient the charter Is
adopted by the next legislature, it will
abolish both tbe Board of Public "Works
and tbe Police Commission, and vest
the powers and duties of both in an
executive board.
Among Mayor Howe's last official acts
yesterday afternoon were ihe acceptance
of the resignations of A. L. Maxwell and
C. N. Rankin as members of the Board of
Public Works and the. Board of Police
Commissioners, respectively, and the ap
pointment of Mr. Maxwell to succeed Mr.
Rankin and of C. A. Cogswell to take
the piace of Mr. Maxwell In the controll
ing body.
The resignations of both Mr. Rankin and
Mr. Maxwell were In the nature of a
surprise. That of the former was filed
with City Auditor Devlin on March 10,
and was addressed to Mayor Howe. At
the tjme Mr. Rankin told Mr. Devlin that
the letter was to be given to the Mayor in
person and that It was not to be delivered
until he called for it. As the Mayor's
term was to expire at midnight last night,
Mr. Devlin handed him the letter In the
afternoon. It read as follows:
"When you assumed the duties of Mayor
of this city, you honored me by an ap
pointment on the Board of Police Com
missioners. At that time only one-half of
tbe year had expired, but nearly 70 per
cent of the Police Department fund was
expended. Notwithstanding the most rig
Id economy a large deficit existed at the
end of the year. During the year 1S01. the
expenses of the department were kept
within the appropriations made by the
Council. The appropriation for the year
1902 will permit of a slightly improved
service, but Is very much less than is al
lowed for police service in any other city
of caual uoDulatlon in the United States.
There are many conditions In Portland
which make the maintenance of an effi
cient police force more expensive than in
other cities of the same population. It is
not necessary to enumerate them to you.
I can only say that I have endeavored to
perform the duties of the office to the best
of my ability. I know the other members
of the board have been diligent and faith
ful, but the department is not sufficient,
and it has been and "will be criticised. The
economy we have practiced Is not appre
ciated, and I am convlnped there is little
to be gained In conducting a department
which Is rendered unsatisfactory both to
the people and the officers by the most
severe economy.
"It Is, therefore. In accordance with a
desire which I have often expressed to you
during the past year that I tender here
with, "my resignation as a member of the
Board of Police Commissioners of tnis
city. My action is taken at this time and
prior to this campaign, which has already i
begun, becauso It is probable, almost cer
tain, that you will be elected again to the
high office which you have filled so ac
ceptably to the people in general, and I
realize the Importance to you of knowing
at once the action of "your "friends.
"I thank you most heartily for the hon
or you conferred upon me, and which I
value most as an evidence of your per
sonal esteem."
Mr. Maxwell's resignation, which was
also addressed to the Mayor, was filed
with Mr. Devlin Saturday afternoon. It
read as follows:
"I hereby tender to you my resignation
as a member of the Board of Public
Works of the City of Portland. I thank
you most sincerely for the honor you have
conferred upon me."
Both resignations were accepted, and
Mr. Maxwell was appointed to take the
place vacated by Mr. Rankin. Mr. Cogs
well was selected to fill the vacancy
caused by the retirement of Mr. Maxwell
from the Board of Public Works. Mr.
"Rankin, who was appointed in 1900. under
the present charter, had four years more
to serve. Mr. Maxwell was appointed a
member of the Board of Public Works to
fill the vacancy caused by the resignation
of W. F. BurrelL He had three years to
serve.
Mr. Maxwell, the new Police Commis
sioner, was chairman of the board In 1E95,
when the late George P. Frank was May
or, and Is well known In railroad and real
estate circles. Mr. Cogswell, who will
succeed him In the Board of Public Works,
represented Lake County In the State
Senate In 1SS9-9L but for several years he
"has been a resident of Portland and is a
practicing attorney In this city.
If the new charter should "be passed by
the Legislature next January both Mr.
Maxwell and Mr. Cogswell will be re
lieved of office, for that measure provides
for the abolishment "of the Board of Po
lice Commissioners and the Board of Pub
lic Works and lodges the duties of the
two with the Executive Board which the
charter creates.

PILING TO HOLD SEW BRIDGE SPAN.
I .-
REPAIRING THE BRIDGE
TRAVEL
"WILL BE RESUMED IX
TWO WEEKS.
P. C. & O. Railway Is BaHdlns Foun
dation for Its Tract on East
Approach, of the Bridge.
The County Commissioners, who have
charge of the reconstruction of the Madison-street
bridge, have deemed It Inad
visable to spend any large amount on re
pairing the structure, and so. Instead of
having two new spans to travel over; the
public will have to content themselves
with temporary piling. This piling will
cost the county about $S500, and It will be
about two weeks before it will be ready
to accommodate traffic The P. C. & O.
Railway people are now repairing the
approach at their own expense, so that
there will be little delay for them when
the bridge is finished. f .
One span of the bridge was completely
consumed by the fire, and one "was so
badly shattered by falling from the piers
that repairing was out of the' question,
so the county had to face the proposition
of two entirely new spans or of tempo
rary repairs, and as the remainder of tho
bridge Is of poor construction, anyway. It
was thought that It would be a waste of
money to put In two good, new spans with,
the wreak old onea. Consequently the
Portland Bridge & Building Company was
given orders to put In an elevated road
way where tho spans had been. Two pile
drivers and a large force of men are at
work, and It is thought that at the expi
ration of two weeks' time the burnt porr
tlon as far as the river bank will be
ready for travel.
East of the bank the bridge is a city
street, over which the County Commit
sioners have no authority, and it will be
necessary for the City Council and tho
City Engineer to attend to that part of
the work. It will take some time for this,
and as every day of suspended traffic
means a dead loss for the car line, the
company has decided that the best course
for them to pursue Is to do the work at
their own expense and by their own con
tractors, so they have had a bridge gang
at work on Hawthorne avenue, between
the river and East First street, for the
last week, building a trestle for their dou
ble car tracks. This wjll be done as soon
as the bridge people finish their piling, so
that in two weeks cars will be running
to Oregon City as usual, if there is no
Interference from the strikers.
AT LENGTH THEY SEE IT.
Just What The Oregonlan Predicted
Two Years Ago.
WASHINGTON. June 24. Special to
"New York Journal of Commerce.) "When
you can bring me a reciprocity proposi
tion so framed that It will Injure no in
dustry, remove the protection enjoyed by
none, and arouse no opposition on the
part of those who manufacture the arti
cles to which it relates, I will favor the
echerae." These words were used not
long ago by one of the members of the
House of Representatives, who has been
known as a principal opponent of tariff
concessions to Cuba and who is also re
garded as among the most capable of the
House Republicans. The statement is
characteristic of the attitude adopted by
a large clasc of men. It signifies that no
difference Is recognized between reciproc
ity and tariff reduction as such. It Indi
cates that a system which will secure
trade advantage for one industry at the
expense of another will be bitterly op
posed, not merely by those whose inter
ests are Jeopardized by the new arrange
ment, but by hide-bound protectionists
who see no Justice in such a method of
procedure.
The reciprocity debate has had the ef
fect of putting this question namely the
relative advantages of tariff reduction and
reciprocity agreements plainly before the
minds of Republicans. They find It very
uncomfortable to be obliged to face the
necessity of a definite decision regarding
JUst what Is meant by "reciprocity''- as
such. But everything that has been said
of late Indicates perfectly plainly that
the tariff question is now putting Itself to
them In the old simple form of reduction
or no reduction. The attempt to obscure
the issue by means of "reciprocity talk"
has been unsuccessful. As a Republican
Senator stated the other day, "the tariff
is either a theoretical problem of protec
tion to home Industries or else it is noth
ing more than a mass of trade bargains
representing compromises with different
industrial Interests. Now, if the question
Is purely theoretical In character, involv
ing only the problem of manufacturing Jn
this country, and of so protecting our
manufacturers that they wiU be able to
continue producing, then evidently It
would not be- morally right to trade away
the Interest of one Industry for the ben
efit of another. In other words, It would
not be fair to deprive shoe manufactur
ers of protection so that producers of
hats might find a larger market abroad.
On the other hand. If no theoretical ques
tion is Involved but we have merely
reached a point where protection, in many
Industries, at least. Is no longer requisite
in order to enable us to contlnuo manu
facturing, then evidently the situation Is
one which calls for a general reduction In
duties and a thorough revision of our
schedules."
This same Senator was asked whether
ho did not believe that it might happen in
some instances that an industry enjoyed
superfluous protection which might bo
taken from it and used as a means for
bargaining with, foreign countries. It was
inquired whether this might not induge
them to remove superfluous protection
from some articles manufactured by them
In order that our goods might enter into
those countries moro extensively. An
swering these questions., he replied:
"No; If reciprocity means anything and
If the tariff reductions which it contem
plates are to have any effect, then goods
will come Into this country and will flow
from this country to others In greater
measure as a result of the tariff reduc
tions which are supposed to have taken
place. If this Is not so, then reciprocity
amounts to nothing and it would be pure
ly deceptive to think of introducing-it. If
this Is so. then all that has happened is
that the material hitherto retained for
some one industry Is opened up to for
eigners In a greater or less degree. In con
sideration of those foreigners opening up
a market to some of our products. In
other words, reciprocity Is either mean
ingless or else It is unfair."
This, point of view has undoubtedly been
stimulated very recently by the Congres
sional discussion. In fact, one strong
ground of opposition to reciprocity seems
to bo that the industries affected ac
tually fcol that their Interests are being
bartered away for the sake of the welfare
of others. They would be willing, per
haps, to see a general tariff reduction
take place where they would not be wil
ling to see their own protection lowered,
while that of others Is maintained at its
old level. One of tho manufacturers who
not long ago visited Washington to in
quire into the status of the Kasson trea
ties put this point of view In a very clear
way. He said that there are two rea
sons why reciprocity Is -more distasteful
to producers than tariff reduction would
be. In the first place, when a general
tariff reduction, or a tariff reduction af
fecting those things which It is supposed
are able to bear It, occurs, there is as
surance that all Interests will be consid
ered, that the reductions will be made
only after full and fair hearings and that
there will be no self-interest on the part
of some, leading them to favor the reduc
tion of the duties on the products manu
factured by others. In the case of reci
procity manufacturers are afraid that
other manufacturers desirous of getting
concessions abroad will be willing to as
sent to some tariff reductions on goods
which they do not themselves 'produce In
order that by these means openings for
their own goods may be purchased In for
eign countries. Secondly, in any reci
procity secheme there Is always the lurk
ing fear that In the process of bargain
ing with other countries -we shall be out
witted and give a great deal more than
we get. When we have a simple tariff
reduction we merely cut down our duties
to that point which Is held to be best for
the Interest of our consumers and manu
facturers. When we enter Into negotia
tions with foreign countries there is a
danger that we shall go below this point,
and that by some error of bargaining we
shall overreach ourselves.
Whatever may be the justice of these
arguments, the fact remains undoubted
that the reciprocity idea except on the
terms outlined by the member who was
quoted at the beginning of this discussion
has been discredited. Men prefer to con
template the idea of tariff reduction just
as It stands rather than to sugarcoat the
pill with a reciprocity cover.
PRESIDENT'S YACHT.
Mayflower, Completely Refitted, lias
Been Pnt in Commission.
NEW YORK. June 30. Trim as a Sum
mer girl in her daintiest bathing suit, the
Ma flower lies In the Brooklyn navy
yard, 'the official yacht o'f the United
States and ocean home of President Roose
velt. In her new function,, after under
going alterations that cost $50.00 she is
ready for sea as one of the most luxu
riously appointed vessels afloat. She was
commissioned Saturday, but the date of
her sailing from the navy-yard has not
yet been settled. f Of the new Mayflower
all the officers at the navy-yard are proud,
as they feel .she will be a fitting residened
for the Chief Executive when social or
naval regulations call upon him to fly his
flag afloat.
In designing such a palace for use by
the President, the United States departs
somewhat from the old lines of Jefferso
nian simplicity and takes her place among
the other world powers In the matter of
naval luxury. Neither the Hohenzollern
nor any of the other royal yachts has
staterooms and saloons more behutlful or
costly than those of tbe President's yacht.
In the four weeks just passed the May
flower has been refitted and refurnished
completely from stem to stern.
Tho President's quarters are situated
aft on the main deck, and Include six
staterooms for the exclusive use of him,
Mrs. Roosevelt and their children. The
two larger of these staterooms have been
very lavishly furnished. Special atten
tion has been given to the decoration of
the bulkheads and the paneling, which is
covered with expensivo silk in many
colors. The smoking-room occupies the
after portion of the spare deck, an'd is
finished in teak, with a floor of fancy
woods, inlaid In mosaic nnd waxed. Many
cane chairs and sofas add to the comfort
to be had In this room. Behind the offi
cers' quarters, below the main deck, is
the 'President's dining saloon. It extends
tho width of tho yacht, and is furnfshed
in white and gold, Louis XIV style.
Running aft is the companion way to
tho President's reception-room. Some of
the panels along this companion way are
made of Valenciennes lace, painted over
with a silver paint to resemblo steel. In
the reception-room the white and gold ef
fect Is still carried out. Leading down to
the berth deck aft is a magnificent ma-hog-any
stairway that gives entrance to
the private apartments. There are two
large staterooms and two bathrooms. On
the port side, just outside the President's
room, is his private bath. The tub la
cut 'from a. solid block of flne marble.
Besides the provisions for the comfort
of the President and family In the living
and sleeping apartments aboard, exten
sive plans were made to give him the
heneflt of the most Improved culinary and
sanitary contrivances. There is a large
refrigerating plant In the forward part
of the chip, near the dining saloon. Noth
ing has been left undone to make the
Mayflower a fit habitation for the ruler of
a wealthy" Nation.
Before the Spanish-American War the
Mayflower was the property of Mrs. Og
den Goelet. It had been built for her
husband on the Clyde at a cost of $800,000.
When Mr. Goelet died his widow at one
time contemplated selling the yacht to the
Klng-of the Belgians. At the outbreak of
the war the Mayflower was bought as a
torpedo-boat destroyer at a cost of $430,
00). The vessel is 321 feet over all, 273
feet on the water line. When Governor
Allen was sent to Porto Rico he was
given the Mayflower after sho had been
outfitted at considerable expense, as his
official yacht.
The Mayflower, which now replaces the
Dolphin, Is under command of Lieutenant
Commander Albert Gleavcs.

FOR A GREAT STATE FAIR
PRESIDENT WEHRUNG SAYS
WILL BREAIC RECORDS.
IT
Tonr Through the State Arouses In
terest and Enthusiasm Among
Farmers Everywhere.
If the coming State Fair does not eclipse
all previous exhibitions, it will not be the
fault of President W H. Wehrung and
Secretary M. D. Wisdom, of the State
Board of Agriculture. These gentlemen
have Just returned from a tour of the
Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon,
where they Journeyed In the Interests of
the 1S02 fair, their special mission being
to secure county exhibits and arouse gen
eral Interest In the worthy Institution
which they represent. More than half of
the counties visited will bo represented at
Salem In September, and It is thought that
all of them will get on the band wagon
later on and take a chance at the hand
some prizes offered for the county ex
hibits. One thousand dollars is appro
priated annually for this purpose, the
county with the best all-around exhibit re
ceiving $300, the second $250, the third $200.
the fourth $150 and the fifth $100. No end
of rivalry exists among the counties, and
special efforts are being put forth by the
enterprising Ones, In order that their fa
vored localities may land "first money."
Messrs. Wehrung and Wisdom are very
enthusiastic over the prospects for a grand
display and an entertaining programme.
Their recent tour took them as far south
as Ashland, where the Ashland Board of
TmIb In (nnnwtlnn Tvffrh n slm!lni nr.
ganlzatlon at Medford, Is arranging for a
Jackson County display. The people of
this enterprising section have varied re
sources at their command, and their ex
hibit will Include agricultural, horticultur
al, mineral and forestry displays, as well
as Individual displays of thoroughbred
livestock, pouglas. Lane, Linn, Benton,
Polk, Yamhill and Washington Counties
are all In the race for that $200 prize, and
some of the Eastern Oregon Counties will
send down excellent exhibits. The people
of Josephine County hav e promised a flrst
dass mineral exhibit, and the w ork of col
lecting specimens has already commenced.
In Washington County, Heidel & Wall, a
real estate firm, of Hlllsboro, Is collecting
materials for a display, while J. C. Coop
er Is doing a similar work In "old Yam
hill." When seen last evening, Mr. Wehrung
said: "Mr. Wisdom and I visited most of
the counties In Western and Southern Or
egon, finding, to our great delight, that
the people are deeply interested in the
State Fair, and are doing all possible to
make tho thing a success. If nothing un
foreseen happens, the 1902 fair will be the
largest and best on record, as the display
room Is being gobbled up with great rap
idity. Last year, the fair was the best on
record, but this year's display will be 50
per cent better, and. If weather conditions
are favorable, the crowds will prove record-breakers.
Crop prospects are excel
lent, this year, and whenever the farmers
are prosperous, then look out for a big
state fair.
"The speed programme will be well
worth seeing, and nothing but clean sport
will be tolerated. Entries have been re
ceived from hojsemen all over the Pacific
Coast, the large purses attracting many
who have herptofore paid but little atten
tion to Oregon and tho Northwest. Our
place on the circuit will-bring us horses
in good condition, not too fresh, nor yet
too stale. All in all, the fair prospects
are far above tho average."
Mr. Wehrung. accompanied by his wife,
left last evening for his home at Hllls
boro. A GREAT PEACEMAKER.
Xew York. Minister's Sermon on
King: Edward.
NEW YORK, June 30. Among the ser
mons preached in this city with the post
poned coronation for a theme was that
of Rev. Dr. Robert MacArthur, at
Calvary Baptist Church. The edifice was
decorated with American and British
flags. The National anthems of Amer
ica and Great Britain were sung by the
congregation. Dr. MacArthur devoted a
great portion of his discourse to the in
terchange of sympathy between this
country and Great Britain on the occa
sion of the National calamities which
recently have befallen the two kindred
peoples..
"The British Empire and the whole
civilized world," said Dr. MacArthur,
"have experjencea a cruel disappoint
ment In the illness of King Edward and
the postponement of the coronation.
Many facts added to the greatness of the
occasion. Never before In all Its history
was th6 British Empire so great. King
Edward used all his great influence to
obtain peace with honor for his emplro
in the Boer War, and without humilia
tion to his brave foes. His plans have
been crowned with signal success, and
Edward VII may jet be known as the
'great peacemaker.'
"Never before were the bonds of friend-
