HILLSBORO ROAD FRANCHISE
Rereferrcd to etrect committee for ad
justment of route.
"A certain member of this Council,"
said Councilman Albee yesterday, point
edly and looking directly at C. B. Rume
lln, "was quoted in this morning's Ore
gonian as saying: 'Mark my words; those
licenses will not be revoked. Now, is
there any any man In this Council, even
though he be backed by the machine, who
Is autocrat of this body; who can whip
enough men Into line to pass or defeat
.ny measure regardless of right or wrong?
If so, I want to know it, and the public
must know it sooner or late!-." Albee re
ceived, no reply. Rumelln made a slight
noise by blowing upon the edge of a
card.
This remark of Albee's was but one of
a number of the most candid assertions
on record in the Council chamber of the
City of Portland. When the resolution
proposed by Albce to revoke the licenses
of 23 saloons In the North End came up
for discussion In the Council meeting yes
terday it was the occasion for a very
long and heated discussion, in which al
most every member of the Council partic
ipated. Upon the introduction of the ordinance
which was included in the report of the
liquor license committee, Flegel moved
for the adoption of the report, but re
ceived no second.
Wanted to Amend Report.
"I have not been able to get through
my head." said Rumelln, "how the con
duct of these saloons affects the liquor
license committee. I do not want to line
myself up as a champion of combination
houses, but the people have seen my views
In this morning's Oregonian.
"I move that this resolution be amended
and the Chief of Police instructed to en
force the law. I had a conversation with
the Chief of Police this morning and he
told me that he thought the liquor license
committee knew what they were licensing
and I move the report be amended as I
have proposed."
Only a Forerunner.
"In my mind," said Louis Zimmerman,
"this is only a forerunner of what is to
come. I have a list of about 30 more sa
loons here. The question in my mind is,
'what are we going to do with them? Do
we want them in the North. End, in the
residence district or in the business sec
tion of the city? Portland is not a city
of one class. We have several classes
here and we need them all. We have a
population of 130,000 or 140,000, and we are
trying to make it 200,000. and pretty soon
we will want to make it a quarter of a
million.
"These people in the North End cannot
go around with the MOO. They can't come
to the Portland or the Imperial hotels.
They cannot even go into a saloon up
town and buy a glass of beer. Where are
you going to put them? The police regu
lation is the only thing that you can put
over them. I have lived here 25 years
and conditions are better today than they
evor were. I don't want to move. I don't
blame the gentlemen for introducing the
resolution because they think they are
right, and I too think that I am right."
As Zimmerman resumed his seat a large
crowd gathered in the gallery broke into
boisterous hand-clapping.
Flegel Enters Discussion.
"I've given this matter some consid
eration in the past two years," said
Flegel. "To take Mr. Zimmerman's Idea,
what are you going to do with the people
In the North End?' In one breath he
says, 'Jot the police regulate them,' and
in another he says, 'leave them alone for
there is no place to put them. These
women do-not live in these places. They
go there, are employed there and stay
there from 6 o'clock until early morning."
He then referred to the ordinance which
he read. Continuing, he said:
"It is not a question of police regula
tion. It is a question of absolute mandate.
I take exception to my friend's assertion
as' to conditions. A few years ago there
were. I believe, 34 of these places, and
today there are precisely 23 flourishing
combination houses. It is not a question
of polico regulation. These women go to
the places, remain in them and ply their
trade. In direct opposition to the pro
visions of this ordinance. I tell you it Is
a question for the liquor license commit
tee and not police regulation. It is for
them to say what is and what is not a
proper place. They have already can
colled the licenses of places conducted by
notorious thieves and thugs. The revenue
does not cut much figure in my estima
tion. Men will run saloons without wom
en If the other fellows will. They have
told me that if women are in saloons
across the street they cannot do business
without them, but if the women are run
out of all the saloons they can. and they
won't keep women in them if they know
they must not."
Rumelln Defends His Views.
"I hope," Interposed Rnraelln, "that Mr.
Flegel did not misunderstand me. I am
not a champion of the combination
houses, but I believe it to be the duty of
the Chief of Police, and not of the license
committee, to regulate these places. I
maintain that when the licenses are
granted it is the Chief's duty to see that
the saloons aro conducted properly and I
would like to see ae thing tried."
Sharkey had been restless for some time
and took the floor immediately Rumelln
finished. Much to the amusement of the
Council 'and the gallery,, he waxed elo
quent. Sharkey IVjakes Remarks.
"'I don't know whethor I am a cham
pion of the. combination-houses or not
I will say that I have no interest in any
saloon in this city or iri any other city
and in no combination-house, so of course
the finances do not interest me. I don't
care whether they run or not. But from
the social side, are we going to deny
these people the same privileges that we
enjoy ourselves?
"The sailor or the soldier or the long
shoreman wants a place to go and have a
drink. Society men go to our "hotels
and have their cocktails just the same as
the sailor goes to a house and has his.
Sometime ago a body of people came to
Governor Pcnnoyer. former Mayor of
Portland and protested against these
places. He said: 'Is dancing a crime?
Is drinking a crime? No. Do you dance?
Do you drink? Yes. Well. If 3'ou will,
when you next give an affair, extend an
invitation to these people in the North
End, I will see that their operations are
curtailed.' Now, if you please, I put this
matter to you in the same way. If you
will make these people our social equals,
I will be in favor of closing the combina
tion houses. If God created men equal
let us try and see that all men are equal."
Albee Answers Opposition.
"One point that strikes me," said Albee,
"among the opposition, if I may term
them such, is that Mr. Rumelln says the
matter may be amicably settled by the
Chief of Police. Notwithstanding the
question of law alone, ho feels that we
should all fall down on what is irrevocably
our duty, because one man may not do
his duty. Another gentleman comes for
ward with the argument of finance. An
other member takes the social side of the
controversy. Mr. Flegel has clearly es
tablished the law side of the question and
our duty is plainly before us. One mem
ber of the Council shows his views on the
proposition In an interview in this morn
ing's Oregonian. He is further quoted
as saying: 'Mark my words, those licenses
will not be revoked. Now is there a man
in this Council, even though be be backed
by the machine, who is autocrat of this
body; who can whip enough men into line
to pass or defeat any measure regardless
of right or wrong? If so, I want to know
it. and the public must know it sooner or
later." Receiving no reply, Albee con
tinued: Appeals to Councilmen.
"This is not a question of police regu
lation. The women are in these places,
the liquor and women are together. You
all know your oaths of office and I appeal
to you as Councilmen of the City of Port
land: I appeal to you as men."
"I want to say to Mr. Albee, as presi
dent of this Council," said Zimmerman,
''that some time ago when the advocacy
against boxes was commenced, it was I
who agitated it in the Council, the ordi
nance was passed, the boxes went and if
the ordinance had not been repealed it
would be a law today."
"I desire to say," answered Albee, "that
Mr. Zimmerman is slightly mixed on his
dates. The ordinance has not been re
pealed and I Jiave hopes that the Su
preme Court will uphold it."
Rumelln Moves Adoption.
"I move that the resolution be adopted
as amended; that the licenses be not re
voked and that the Chief of Police be
instructed to enforce the law," said Rum
elln. "Second the motion," affirmed Merrill
gleefully. When put to vote, Albee, Bent
ley, Flegel. Foeller and Whiting voted
aye; Sharkey, Rumelln, Merrill, Sherett
and Zimmerman, nay. Called upon to
decide the tie ballot. Mayor Williams
voted in the affirmative. The resolution
as amended was recorded carried.
Vote to Take Trip.
Alter a great deal of desultory discus
sion and after two Councilmen had voted
in the negative and then in the affirm
ative, an ordinance appropriating $1500 to
pay for the Los Angeles journey was
passed. A committee of nine Councilmen
will go instead of the full Council, and
guests as previously agreed. There was
a vigorous effort on the part of several
Councilmen to break the proposed journey,
on account, it is said, of retaliating
against Albee and Flegel, who constitute
the reform element. For a Jlme it looked
as though the opposition would succeed.
Remarks after adjournment would indi
cate that Mayor Williams will veto the
ordinance insofar as it Is asserted that,
regardless of any balances in the mis
cellaneous fund, nothing in excess of $1000
may be appropriated In one year.
Other Business Transacted.
Herman Wittenberg, when given the
courtesy of the floor, entered a spirited
protest against the holding up of an im
provement on Holladay avenue. The Ore
gon Real Estate Company was, in his
opinion, responsible for the delay. Bltu
lithic pavement, he averred, had been
investigated and the property-owners
wished nothing else. Rumelln proposed
an amendment permitting competitive
bidding. This was defeated, and the Im
provement eloquently championed by
Messrs. Wittenberg and Sharkey was
granted.
The requested appropriation for the re
pair of the garbage crematory came in
for a lively discussion, which resulted in
the matter being tabled on motion and
second of Flegel and Bentloy, until the
Health Board submits an outline of what
they wish done, as requested by the Coun
cil two months ago.
Authorization of the Executive Board to
repair the Tanner-Creek sewer for the
sum of 55000 was tabled.
Assessment for the payment of tho con
tract on the construction of the First
street bridge was tabled after a spectacu
lar array of pro and con arguments, in
which Zimmerman and Flegel figured con
spicuously. Protests against the granting of a fran
chise to the Oregon Traction Company
for the construction of the Hillsboro roa"d
on Pottygrovo and Overton streets were
not honored. The matter was re-referred
to the street committee.
A recommendation of the license com
mittee to reduce the licenses of the Ore
gon Water Power & Railroad Company
on their Oregon City and Springwater
lines, received a severe slap at the hands
of the Council. It was hopelessly de
feated, and the Oregon Water Power Com
pany .will continue to pay $25 and $50 a
quarter respectively instead of $5, as re
quested. Numerous other matters of mediocre im
portance including petitions for street im
provements, sewers and protests were re
ferred to various committees.
NEW BEEDGE BREAKS DOWN.
Morrison-Street Structure Is to Be
Closed to Traffic During Repairs.
Owing to the breaking of a steel shaft,
the new Morrison-street bridge could not
be opened after 11 o'clock last night, and
boats were unable to pass through. One
steam schooner was obliged to tie up at
the foot of Oak street.
This morning the bridge will be forced
open and kept in that position until the
necessary repairs can be made. The
street-cars will cross Burnside-street
bridge and observe the schedule under
which they ran during the construction
of the Morrison-street structure.
