To Induce Mayor Williams to be a candidate for re-election, bis friends have started a movement -which will -wind up In a testimonial from prominent bus iness men, declaring their confidence In his administration and asking: him to offer himself as a candidate. His Honor has said that If this were done he would "consider the question" of running again, but not otherwise. A letter addressed to the Mayor Is even now in circulation. In the Republican fold much Interest centers In Mayor Williams' candidacy. .That he would have a very large follow ing In the primaries for the Republican nomination is admitted on all sides even py members of the reform element. Should Judge Williams be renominated, the reform element would undoubtedly fuse with the Democrats or put up an independent candidate. The reform forces have not made harbor yet and will prob ably not anchor in anybody's port until they see what nominees shall rise out of .the Republican and Democratic pri maries. Many Reform Candidates. In the reform camp a dozen or more men have . been measured up for the Mayoralty. One of the latest additions to the catalogue Is State Senator C. W. Nott ingham, who, however, declares that he would not consent to be a candidate. "State Senator is all I want Just now," said he yesterday. One of the leading favorites of the Municipal Association is H. R. Albee, now a member of the City Council. An other is W. P. Olds, of Olds. Wortman & King. Tyler Woodward also has a place in the councils of the association. Others are such as George H. Howell, member of the Executive Board of the city and strongly backed up by labor unions; R. Livingstone. W. M. Ladd, A. M. Smith, Samuel Connell. and Willis Fisher. All the foregoing are Republi cans. To them may be added such Democrats as Tom Word, who Is con sidered in reform circles as the strongest Democrat that could be nominated for their purposes; A. F. Flegel, member of the City Council, who Is leading the assault on Chief of Police Hunt; 3. H. Thomas, who is foreman of the grand Jury which indicted Mayor Williams, and who will enter the primaries as a can didate. Reform forces prefer to take up with a Republican rather than with a Democrat, however. Inasmuch as the Democrats number only about one-third of the voting population of the city. Many Others Mentioned. But these are not, the only Democratic patriots who are talked of for the high office. Alex Sweek, chairman of the State Central Committee, perhaps has heard of a boom in his favor. Maybe L. T. Peery, Sweek's foe within the party, has aieard that the name Peery would soua'd alee belonging to a Mayor. Richard W. Montague is the possessor of a boomlet; also Dr. Hary Lane, M. J. Malley. J. N. Teal. M. C. Banfield, J. Couch Flanders. W. E. Robertson, Dr. G. M. Wells, and R. D. Inman. The list of Republican boomlets Btretcb.es out to very great length, even after the stalwarts favored by the Mu nicipal Association have been named. Chief of the probable primary candidates Is Mayor Williams. Ex-Sheriff W. A. Storey. who has whetted up a knife as long as his arm for the present Republican ma chine Is getting ready to have himself nominated at the primaries. Dr. Andrew C. Smith would be willing to take th Republican nomination if It came his way. H. S. Rowe, ex-Mayor, is being groomed for the race. Fred T. Merrill would like to make the run on an open town issue. Others for whom booms have been started are A- L- Mills, Speaker of the House of Representatives; L. R. Wrbster, County Judge; H. M. Cake. ex-County Judge and president of the Commercial Club; C F. Beebe, member of the Ex ecutive Board; L. Zimmerman, president of the City Council; C E. Rumelln. mem ber of the City Council; W. D. Wheel 'wright, president of the Chamber of Commerce; W. L. Boise, member of the Executive Board; W. B. Ayer, I. X. Fleischner and J. P. Flnley. ALLEGES HE WAS DECEIVED Wolfsher Says Note Was Obtained Under False Pretenses. Deceit was the defense in the suit of the Ames Mercantile Agency for the Mu tual .Reserve Life Insurance Company, against Adolph Wolfsher to recover on an insurance note of $69.40. The complaint alleged that a policy had been taken out by "Wolfs her In the Insur-" snce" companay. and that he had given -his note for the premium of $69.40. Upon his refusal to pay the note had been turned over to the Ames Mercantitle Agency, who brought the suit. In the defense WTolfshcr stated that his signature had been obtained to the note under false pretenses and that at the time of signing he was not aware that ho was signing a note, or, in fact, that ho had taken out a policy. He asserted that he understood that the paper he signed was an application to have a special agent call upon him. When the policy was delivered -be re fused to pay the note and returned the policy. The case was tried before Jus tice Reid, who will announce his decision later. OREGON'S EXCELLENT WEATHER Continued Sunshine and Warmth Makers March Like Summer Month. That even the elements recognize the fact that this is Portland's Exposition year Is evidenced by the almost unprece dented weather record for the past month. Ten days of bright, warm sunshine, with the temperature reaching a maximum of 72 degrees, and with the rainfall for the preceding 27 days 4.35 below the normal Is the record rarely equaled before in Portland. The continued sunshine has. had the ef fect of convincing even the doubtful that Spring must be here, and the gardens and lawns are not alone in displaying the ma terial evidences. That delight of all fem ininity, the Spring hat. is beginning to take up space In the windows, the Pan ama hat renovating signs show up large and some of the more daring of the mas culine have gone so far as to don the Spring suit. In several of the past years the tem perature In March has attained a max imum of 72 degrees, and in a few in stances higher, but these same months have been rainy and the higher tempera ture occurred on a later date. The highest temperature for March re corded occurred in 1SS6, when on the 29th a maximum of 79 degrees was registered. The next highest was on March 21, 1SS3, with 75 degrees as the maximum. At that time the warm spell extended from March 2 to March 22 without rain. March of last year furnished but four clear days in the month, and on only one day did the thermometer go. above 60 degrees, the maximum of 61 degrees occurring on the 21st. The indications are for continued good weather for some time yet and a higher maximum of temperature is looked for. PERSONAL "WORK IS NEEDED T. E. Brown Advises Young Men How to Aid Chapman Revivals. A meeting having for Its purpose preparation for the coming Chapman revivals, was held at the Y. M. C A. last night, with L E. Brown, state sec retary of the T. II. C A. In Illinois, as the principal speaker. The attendants were largely young men who will have charge of the Sunday afternoon men's meetings to be held throughout the city during the revival, and Mr. Brown, well fitted by his extensive experience in Christian work, gave many helpful aids and suggestions. His topic was "Personal Work," which he defined in Its broadest eenso as the influence which one person or life has on another. 'There are three ways," the speaker said, "in which the personal life and work of one person has its Influence on that of another: The Influence of ex ample, the work of Invitation, and the Intercession by prayer." Mr. Brown illustrated each of these points with many anecdotes and stories and then went on to the reasons why so many Christians fall in their per sonal work. He summed this up under six reasons: They do not hold at Its true value the worth of the unsaved soul; they do not have an adequate concep tion of the work which Christ has com missioned them to do; they do not rec ognize the opportunities which are. pre sented to them for personal work; they are not fully prepared to do this work, and they fail to do much work through pure cowardice. The speaker closed by urging upon all men present to exert their every effort during the coming revivals. dosed .until 1. " WANT MORE TRAINS' Willamette Valley People De sire Better Service. SUGGEST A NEW SCHEDULE Towns Along Portland and Yamhill Division of Southern Pacific De clare Unless Matter Is Reme died Harm Will Result. The small towns along the Portland and Tamhill division of the Southern Pacific are clamoring for more frequent railway transportation. They contend that the matter should be remedied immediately, as it is likely to result in a serious loss to that section of the country. They say thousands and thousands of homeseekers will stop over at the small towns this Spring with a view to locating perma nently. If they see the inadequate train service they bellevo that numbers of the prospective settlers will decide to locate elsewhere. The country on the Portland and Yam hill division of the Southern Pacific is de veloping very rapidly, and its inhabitants say that all It needs to hasten Its rapid growth is more frequent train service. In Newberg alone, over 300 new buildings were erected In 190L On Sundays the country from Oswego to Sheridan is par ticularly Isolated. Tho only way to got In and out of that community Is by pri vate conveyance. The country west of Whiteson to Cor vallis Is clamoring for evening service. This Is particularly true at Amity and Independence. Corvallls has morning connection from Portland by Trains No. 2 and X and also an evening connection with Trains Nos. IS and 14 on the East Side division, with Trains Nos. 4 and 3 on the Corvallls & Eastern Railroad. The following schedule has been sug gested to supply tho demands of the en tire West Side of the Willamette Valley for years to come: Portland and Corvallls. No.. No. 2. No.1. No. 3 P.M. A.M. P.M. A.M. 4:50 7:30 Lv. Portland Ar. 8:50 8:25 9:05 11:45 Ar. Corvallls. Lv. 1:20 4:10 Portland and. Sheridan. No. 6. No. 5 A. M. P.M. Ar. 7:00 Lv. 4:00 7:0 J Lt. 10:CO Ar. Portland. Sheridan. Portland and Dallas. No. 8. P.M. 4:10 Lv. 7:20 Ar. No. 7 A.M. Ar. 10:10 Lv. 7:00 Portland. Dallas. The following article concerning the present schedule on tnis branch line of the Southern Pacific appeared In the New berg Graphic: One of the first things to call forth un favorable comment from the new arrival Is tho poor transportation facilities with which Newberg and vicinity has to put up. It Is so uncommon a thing for so populous a community as this to be so handicapped that the stranger is nonplussed at the sit uation. It Is tho policy of most enterprising- railroads to give the best possible serv ice and thus develop the country. A few roads wait for a fully developed territory, with full patronage assured, before satis factory service is given. This neighborhood Is what lt Is today largely by its own ef forts, and without outside assistance. But with & spirit of hearty co-operation on the part of Newberg and other towns on this branch line, and the Southern Pacific Com pany, great results of mutual advantage might certainly be obtained. Here Is the situation as it exists. Newberg, a town of some 2000 inhabitants, the center of an Incomparably rich agricultural sec tion, and within 23 miles of the metropolis of the Pacific Northwest, has Just one pas senger train into the city in the morning and one out again in the evening. Look at the situation from the standpoint of the mall servico thus given. All Eastern and sosthern mail which gets Into Portland in the evening does not reach here for an other day. The noon (?) freight carries mall, lt Is true, but its ucertalat.es make conditions but little better. Four days across the continent, 2500 miles, and one day from Portland, 25 miles! What is tho relation of the sltuatton to readers of the dally papers, especially morn ing papers 7 The Oregonlan reaches New berg readers anywhere from 2 to 4 o'clock, and only an hour's ride from Portland. This Is bad enough, but think again. There are three rural delivery routes going out from TAXPAYERS XN LINE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF XEBATE. Taxpaying time is now at Us height, and the clerks In the Sheriff's office are kept "busy from morning until evening attending to the throng which fills the office and the hallway on the outside. At times the line extends out onto the steps leading from -Fourth street. The rush Is expected to continue until March ' 1& All taxes paid on or before that' date In full are subject to a rebate of 3 per cent, and the majority of taxpayers wish .to effect the saving." The total of th ttxrcjl Is about $2,000,000, and-it Is expected that when the books are closed. March 13, most of the money, will have been collected. - The books are not finally October, but these who delay payment lose the ' Newberg. the carriers starting out early in the morning. Subscribers living on these routes get their Monday morning papers, for instance, by Tuesday noon, a day and a half after it is issued and a half day after another paper is out. It a morning train were run out from Portland, reaching here at 8:30. not only would the citizens of Newberg get the advantage of the Improved mall service, but the rural carriers would be held until after the morning mall, with the result that their patrons would get their papers a day earlier and read the news while it Is news. The same would apply to mall in general, for while the present service means a day from Portland to New berg with much of the Eastern and South ern mall. It means nearly two days to those on the rural delivery. Three days from Chi cago to Portland and two days from Port land to Newberg R. F. Dl Present conditions place Newberg at -a great disadvantage in attracting new peo ple, and especially those who have been used to ?o much better service elsewhere. And besides, the prospective home buyer who Is making a hurried tour of tha state finds It takes so much time to make the trip out here that, other things being equal, he goes elsewhere. This is no mere theory. It Is a hard fact that militates against the development of this locality. As It Is, one cannot spend an evening in Portland without being away from New berg two whole days. This meas an outlay of time and money which keeps most peo ple at home. Newberg. a college town, has a high standard of citizenship. Her people appreciate hearing and seeing some of the good things which come to a city the size of Portland, but the opportunity Is prac tically denied them. From this standpoint an evening train Into the city and a morn ig train out would be a great boon. The Lewis and Clark Centennial Is draw ing on apace, but under present conditions the people of this section feel that they wlU be unable to enjoy the full benefit of the Fair and the posibllltlea which it brings for development. Newberg Is giving, and for years has given liberal patronage to the Southern Pacific. Isn't it about time there was something coming from the other end of the line? We are aware that these suggestions aro not new that they have been heard before. And we might add that they will be heard again If something Isn't done. To be In stant In season and out is the Graphic's aim, for it believes that agitation is neces sary to secure this and other improvements. But there Is one thing that would beat agi tation all to pieces. . And that Is a morn ing train out of Portland. REPAIRING NORTH HEAD CABLE District Forecaster Beals on. Scene Superintending the Work. District Forecaster E. A. Beals, of the local Weather Bureau, is still at the mouth of the river endeavoring to secure the speedy repair of the North Head cable. .This cable, which provides telegraphic communication between the weather sta tion at North Head and the mainland, was caught by the schooner "Virginia two weeks ago and broken. Since that time several attempts have been made to lo cate the broken ends of the cable, and they have twice been picked up by the revenue cutter Perry and the lighthouse tender Manzanlta. In each case, how ever, they have been dropped, owing to unfavorable weather conditions. Mr. Beals seems to be encountering considerable difficulty in securing the proper boat or tug to do the work, and he telephoned to the local office yesterday to ascertain Just what tugs are available In Portland. In the meantime communication Is main tained with North Head by means of the telephone. This, however. Is not alto gether satisfactory, and the officials are anxious to have the cable repaired at the earliest possible moment. BOARD OF TRADE JOURNAL OUT March Number Contains Instructive and Interesting Articles. The March number of the Board of Trade Journal of Portland. Just pub lished, is devoted to exploitation of the Northwest, Oregon and the Lewis and Clark Fair in particular. Among its leading articles are one on the Fair, another on the Rogue River "Valley, and another which, by statistics, snows Portland and Oregon to be growing at a wonderful rate. A prominent department In the paper is devoted to .the mining Industry, in which note Is taken of mining opera tlons in all parts of the Northwest, even as far East as Butte. The articles in the paper are all written to show the opportunities In the Northwest for development, and at the same time the statements of fact are based on sta tistics which prove this country to be going ahead as rapidly as stated. rebate. WILL GIVE RELIEF Water Board flans New arfd Larger Piping System. - ESTIMATES . ARE PREPARED If Plans Are Carried Out the Im provements Will Cost About 52257000 Large Conduits to Be Laid and Piping Done. So that the northern part of the East Side will within a few months have a water supply adequate to the needs of that rapidly growing region, esti mates for a new piping system have been prepared by D. D. Clarke, engineer of the Water Board, which, if followed out. will mean the expenditure of 55,000. A large conduit will be laid from ihe Mount Tabor reservoirs and the water distributed over a wide area, where now prevails low pressure and some times a positive lack of water. Before the' line can be completed, however, the dry Summer months will be at hand, and Portsmouth and Uni versity Park will suffer for water. Therefore temporary relief will be granted that district until the entire new system is connected with the res ervoirs. Sixteen women, representing the University Park Civic Improvement Association, appeared before the meet ing of the Water Board yesterday afternoon. Mrs. M. Athey acted as spokesman- She presented a petition signed 'by 327 water users, praying for improvement over last Summer's con ditions. Water Vas Scarce. "After 5 o'clock in the afternoon we couldn't get water at all," said she. "We either had. to draw off water be fore that time and keep It or melt ice for drinking water." To relieve this section of the city Dr. S. E Joscphl moved that a 16-lnch main be laid from Commercial street and Kllllngsworth avenue, out Killings worth avenue to Patton avenue, and thence following the more populous portion to a terminus at Dawson street and Portsmouth avenue. So rapidly are houses being built in this neigh borhood that it was stated the demand for water would this year be greater by 50 per cent than last year. Engineer Clarke has been at worjc on the new East Side system for a long time. Last June he submitted a report outlining the route. Changes and Im- provements have been made, as shown by the report filed yesterday. It is the purpose of the Water Board grad ually to build up a permanent system of pipes for the entire city, which can be added to as the population grows. The construction of the portion out lined yesterday will proceed as rapidly as funds permit. Conduits to Be Laid. From reservoir No. 1, Mount Tabor, the conduit will be laid to West avenue, and thence north on West avenue to the Base Line road. From Fremont street and the Gravel Hill road two routes have been surveyed at a slight difference in cost. The survey of the conduit ends near the southwest corner of the "Vernon addition, near where a standpipe will be erected. From this point distrib uting mains will branch oft, carrying water to the northernmost limits of the city. The largest tube", a 20-inch pipe. Is to run out Kllllngsworth and thence on Union avenue. The engineer esti mates that the 24-lnch conduit for 31. 600 feet will cost $130,200, while 5400 feet of 20-inch pipe will cost $24,800. Smaller pipes for greater distances will cost $75,800. For the purchase of a new site and the removal of the pres ent Irvington standplpv, an estimate of $5000 is made. Allowing for connec tions and contingencies, the total ex penses wlIL amount to $255,000. The Civil Service Commission re quested that Superintendent Dodge be allowed the power of appointing em ployes of the Water Board. Dr. JosephI thought this was taking too" much pow- er away from the board. The other members present, CS. H. Raffety and George W. Bates, waited until Dr. Jo seph! discovered ' that the resolution presented gave the members the final appointive power after all. A. H. Wilson was appointed clerk in the Water Office, and W. Douth was given a position at the head works. SLOT MACHINES UP AGAIN. Council May Consider Subject at Spe cial Meeting Tomorrow. With every wind that blows comes a change in tho slot-machine regulations. One breeze Is on the way now. At the special meeting of the Council tomorrow 'an 'effort will bo-made to change the lat est ordinance which absolutely prohibits such devices from operating. When Councilman Mat Foeller was in dicted by the grand jury and fined for operating a slot machine he determined that the city license on these machines should hi done away with. "What's the use of paying your fine and a license, too?" he asked. Therefore, a month ago Foeller intro duced an ordinance which he thought re pealed the license provision. But he went to California soon afterward. On his re turn he was surprised to learn that an ordinance prohibiting slot machines had been passed. It's up to the Mayor whether the ordinance shall be enforced or not. No orders have yet been given the police to chaso the machines from the cigar-store counters. Want More Policemen. Fifty additional policemen during the Exposition months is the desire of the po lice committee of the Executive Board as formulated at the meeting yesterday morning. A recommendation will be pre sented to the next board meeting. This is following out the expressed wish of the other members of the board. The num ber of patrolmen is now less than a year ago. as several vacancies have occurred which have not been filled. FAIR WILL BE BENEFICIAL. Major Algar M. Wheeler Says It Will Not injure Portland. ."Without exception, the various great expositions that have been held in the United States during the past 15 years have resulted in much good to the cities In which they were held." said Major Algar M. Wheeler, director of the manu facturing department at the Pan-American Exposition and assistant .director-general of the Charleston Exposition, in an Interview yesterday. "I have attended every great Exposition held In this coun try and Europe during the past decade, and I have revisited many of the cities a few years after the close of the exhibi tions' and invariably found that the bank ers, merchant sand transportation com panies were as one in praising the bene ficial results to the city. "The only reaction that I have ever no ticed at any of these expositions was among the hotels, lodging-houses and private home-owners who had rented rooms. It seems to be the Idea of these people that they must get twice as much for their rooms during the Exposition as at any other time, and as a result they lose their regular guests and are able to keep the sightseers but a few days. People coming to Portland with the In tention of remaining weeks will return to their homes in a few days on account of the exorbitant rates asked in the hotels. It is to interests of the merchants of Portland to Insist that equitable rates for rooms and board be maintained. The same amount of money will be spent, and prob ably more." FR0K P0ST0FFICE TO HOTEL Stone Building at Sixth" and Burn side Streets to Be Remodeled. The stone building now occupied by the Postoffice at Sixth, and Burnslde streets is to be turned Into a hotel. The Postoffice will be ready to vacate In two or three months, and after that the alterations are to be made. It is considered by the agents, Harfman. Thompson & Powers, an excellent position for a commercial hotel, and they are now taking archi tects figures on the cost of the alteration. The work will be altogether in the in terior, as tho walls and floors are sub stantial enough for any purpose. BEFORE THE COURT Contractors on Trial for Break ing Ordinances. IMPROVEMENT BOARD ACTS Other Contractors and Merchants Who Persist In Filling Street and Sidewalks Will Be Ar rested and Prosecuted The efforts of the board of ctvlc im provement of the Chamber of Commerce were confined in great part to the Munici pal Court yesterday. The cases of Con tractor Bingham, at work on a building between Sixth and Seventh streets on Stark; of the contractor at work on the Oregon Hotel, on the corner of. Seventh and Stark; of the Blazier building, on West Park and Washington; of S. L. Brown, a cigar man, on Fourth, and Al der, and of the Palace Market on Tam hill, between Third and Fourth, were all brought Into the court for the considera tion of Judge Hogue. The court continued the cases until this morning, when, all will be given a hearing. In addition to this number there are several warrants out for contractors whose names were not known to L. E Crouch, the attorney for the board, but who win be taken into court as soon as the papers can be served on them. It will be the desire and is the Intention of the civic improvement board to prosecute all the cases taken to tho court with the utmost vigor possible. In order that it may become apparent that there Is an earnest purpose behind the movement for a clean and wholesome city. The next point of attack wlU be on First street, south of Yamhill, where many Junk dealers hold forth, in all their glory and disorder. Here, it Is reported, the, sidewalks are almost covered with, old refuse gathered together by the Junk dealers, who are in the habit of leaving the stuff on the streets as a very con venient dumping place pending final dis position of the goods. This practice will be stopped, and if the request of the board that the streets In that locality be cleaned up and kept clean is not heeded, trouble is in store for the merchants, so it is promised. The wholesale district will be looked into to a certain extent, though, it Is rec ognized that different conditions prevail here than are to be found in other parts of the city. .There Is a provision, in the ordinance which allows the use of the sidewalks in transferring goods from a store or warehouse to trucks and wagons, or the reverse, but in tha face of this it Is not necessary to obstruct the whole of the street, so It is argued, and the board will ask that a.passage way be left at all times along the streets of the wholesale district. Notices axe being prepared by the direc tion of the board which will be placed, hi all public buildings and in many conspicu ous places along the streets, warning the people that it Is a violation of the or dinances to scatter paper or other debris along the streets or in the buildings. In addition to these notices, and to make them more effective, it Is the Intention of the board to provide boxes or other receptacles into which all waste matter can be thrown, the boxes to be placed at convenient intervals along the curbs. These boxes will be put In place In a short time and it is expected they will be of great assistance to the board and the city officials in their contention for the observance of the ordinances. DIES FROM APPENDICITIS. E. W. Paget, of Gaston, Succumbs at St. Vincent's Hospital. D. W. Paget, a farmer of Gaston, Wash ington County, died yesterday at St. "Vin cent's Hospital, of appendicitis. He was a brother of B. Lee Paget, of the Port land Trust Company, of this city, and of L. L. Paget, of Fleischner, Mayer & Co.. and was born 36 years ago in England. A week ago last Sunday he had his first attack of appendicitis, and the following Wednesday came to Portland for treat ment, but was too late for a surgical operation. Mr. Paget was married to a daughter of the late KL. L. HIbbard. of Marion County. Interment will take place this morning m Lone Fir Ceme tery.
