02 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 1905. ' PflVESEGQNDSTBEET Councilmen Vote for the Bitu lithic Proposition. DAN MAIARKEY OBJECTS Attorney Declares That the City Fathers Should Ask for Com ' pctitive Bids and Xot Help Foster a Monopoly. The fight for the improvement of Second street took another turn yesterday, at the meeting: of the street committee of the City Council. At the last meeting: of the committee, there was a difference of opinion between affected property-owners as to "whether the street should be im proved with stone blocks or with the bltu llthlc or some other smooth surface pave ment. When the matter of paving: Second street was taken up by the committee yes terday afternoon the only petition pre sented was that of Frank Kiernan and others calling: for Warren's bltullthlc pavement. Chairman Kumelln asked what had been done by those wanting- the street paved with the Belgian blocks, and W. P. White stated that the property-owners standing out for a stone pavement had decided to make no further efforts to se cure it. Malarkey Enters Protest. A& soon as this statement was made a motion was Introduced for the granting of the Kiernan petition, but before it could be put to a vote Attorney Dan Malarkey asked to be heard. He entered a protest against the granting of the petition oh the grounds that it was unfair, illegal and impolitic for the City Council to order a street paved with a pavement that could be furnished by one firm only. He con tended that the word "bltullthlc" was an arbitrary word or trademark adopted by the Warren Company for the purpose of securing a monopoly, and that by adopt ing that word and providing in the speci fications for the pavement for the use of Warren's brand of cement and other ma terials, the city authorities were promot ing that monopoly and preventing honest competition In public work. He said that it was not necessary to use the word "bltullthlc" or provide for the use of any one man's material to se cure a so-called bltullthlc pavement He directed attention to the fact that there was attached to the petition before the committee a letter from the Warren Com pany to Frank Kiernan, stating the price at which It would lay Its bltullthlc pave ment on Second street, and said It was a waste of money and a farce to advertise for bids for public 'work when it was known in advance that there could and would be only one bidder. He contended that the proposed procedure put it In the power of what he called "the bltu llthlc paving monopoly" to charge what it pleased for grading, curbing, drains and other Items that entered Into street improvement. He Favors Competition. Mr. Malarkey said that the Warren Company was not the only person who could lay a so-called bltullthlc pavement. He urged that the fair and proper course to pursue was to leave out of the reso lution, specifications and ordinance for the proposed improvement the words and private brands of materials that pre vented competition and substitute there for generic terms and descriptions of ma terials, so that anyone in the paving busi ness could bid on the work. "It is not necessary," said Attorney Ma larkey. "to use this trade-marked name bltullthlc or specify Warren's brand of tar or cement to secure the desire pave ment. Let the city officials prepare full and accurate specifications of the meth ods and materials to be used in laying the pavement, and then, no matter to whom the contract is awarded, insist on a strict compliance therewith. I maintain that neither this committee nor the City Council has a right to foster a monopoly by stipulating that a street shall be paved with a certain kind of pavement that it is alleged has been patented. Other firms can put down the same pavement as War ren's bltullthlc If you will call it by some other name, and all thaX this committee has to do Is to change the wording of the resolution for the pavement of a street Jn such a manner that others can bid and therefore carry out to the letter the pro visions of the city charter, which says that all contracts for the improvement of the city's streets shall be let to the. low est bidder." Pointed. in His Remarks. Mr. Malarkey was very pointed in some of his remarks about the methods of the Warren Construction Company in obtain ing contracts for street work. While he did not accuse any of the Councilmen of crookedness in connection with the grant ing of contracts to the Warren people, he called attention to sections 19 and 21 of ordinance No. 14,253, of the City of Port land, which relates to the Improvement of streets. In section 13 the grade of asphalt is described, but no one kind is stipulated, while in section 21 Warren's alleged patented method of paving streets is described as the only smooth pavement of that character sanctioned by the Council. Chairman Rumelin stated that it was his understanding that all the property owners had practically agreed at the last meeting of the committee to consent to "whatever pavement a majority thereof petitioned for; but Mr. Malarkey Insisted that the only question at issue at the former meeting was stone block or a smooth-surface pavement, and that the property-owners, who had favored the stone blocks, had in no way committed themselves to shutting out competition in any event, and he urged that, inasmuch as the petition was only filed after the meting commenced, no action should be taken until the other property-owners were given a chance to be heard from on that subject. Interested property-owners answered Mr. Malarkey by saying that they had asked for the bltullthlc pavement because they wanted that kind, and they had un derstood that the committee would grant whatever pavement the majority of the property-owners wanted. "It is not a question of a pavement as good," said one of the property-owners, "but of the bltu llthlc pavement. The property-owners of Portland have had some experience with the Trinidad Asphalt Paving Company, and Second street does not care to take another chance " To this Mr. Malarkey replied that the Trinidad company had as much right to do business In Portland as the Warren company, and that competi tion between two trusts was better than no competition- at all. After listening to the argument of both, sides for some time, Councilman Bent ley suggested that the matter be referred to the City Attorney for solution, but At torney McNary stated that, though it was not within his province to give an opinion as to the wisdom of Inviting bids in such manner as would prevent competition, he was satisfied, that a contract could be en tered Into with the Warren Construction Company for bltullthlc pavement without involving the city in legal difficulties. Councilman Bentley then withdrew his motion and a motioruby Councilman Zim merman. Sor the granting of the petition for the bltullthlc pavement was put to a vote and carried by the following vote: Ayes, Zimmerman, Bentley and Rumelin; nays, Sharkey and Merrill. Councilman Sharkey explained his vote by stating that he believed in competition and that several Second-street property-owners bad asked him to vpte for competitive bidding on the proposed Second-street improvement. FOR CLEAN BARBER-SHOPS. State Board of Examiners Win Take Special Precautions. From now on an active crusade will be opened by the Barbers' State Board of Examiners for Oregon, to insist that clean barbers and clean barber-shops shall be the rule and not the exception in the city, in view of the crowd of barbers from other cities working here during the Lewis and Clark Exposition. The Board has just finished a tour of Southern Ore gon shops where fairly satisfactory trade conditions were found, and yesterday the officers were busy renewing barbers' cer tificates expiring May 1 each year. Out side inspection work will bp resumed again Tuesday and Wednesday, and the officials will then leave for inspection work in Eastern Oregon towns. Cole & Hawarth, proprietors of the barbers' col lege, still defy the authority of the Board of Examiners and insist that all the usual sanitary rules are being observed at their place of business. "Some people there's no need to men tion any names seem to take a pleasure in finding fault with the Barbers' State Board of Examiners," said a "boss" bar ber, last night. "It does not seem to be known that the State of Oregon does not pay one cent to our board. All salaries are paid by the barbers themselves, out of their earnings. We insist on cleanli ness In person and shop, and our work in this regard is conducive to public health. The other day a barber from another state came to Portland to begin business here, as he thought he would make money with the Increased travel to the Exposition, and when he applied for a permit from the Board to begin work, one of the examiners noticed that the man was suffering from a skin disease. Of course the application was refused. In other days when there was no board of examiners, this man would have gone to work, to the harm of his patrons." STATION A OPENS MAY 1 W. Jr. Halvor Will Be Appointed the Superintendent. While not officially announced. It Is un derstood that W. S. Halvor will be su perintendent of the new East Portland Postofflce, and that the station will open on or about May 1. The appointment of Mr. Halvor will be satisfactory to the people of East Portland, as he has had ex tensive experience In the postofllce and mail business. While in name the station will be Station A, in reality It will be a fully equipped postofllce and will do all the business that is done in a postofllce. The room at tJnlon avenue and East Al der street Is being fitted up with new and modern furniture. There will be more than 100 mall boxes for people who want to get their mall that way. For the Sun day delivery, between 10 and 11 A. M.. a special window is being provided. Mail will be taken through a door opening from East Alder street, leaving the front to the public. Extra windows have been cut In the south wall. At the start there will be eight carriers, which number will soon be Increased -to ten. Mails from the Southern Pacific and O. R. & X. trains In the morning will be made up. in pouches on the incoming trains and delivered directly to the East Portland station, and the .carriers will j be delivering this mail before It could i reach the main office, making a saving j of time of one to two hours In the morn ing deliveries. In the afternoon, for the outgoing malls, a mounted man will gath er up the mall In East Portland at 5, 6 and 9 o'clock, all of which will give East Port land first-class mail service. Every effort is being put forth to get into the new sta tion by May 1. Regarding the Ferry Contract. PORTLAND, Or.. April 28. (To the Editor.) Wednesday's Oregonlan says the new Al blna ferry will be accepted by the county, although it does not seem to be satWactory. Presuming that the ferry was constructed from definite plans and specifications and under a contract that .calls .for certain require ments, why is It necessary to accept this boat before the builders complete the same according to contract, thus throwing the cost of alterations or additions upon the county? Upon what baste -was the contract let? Is the county letting contracts in .sweh a vague and slipshod manner that the commissioners must take what Is turned over to them and have no opportunity for redress? If thin is the case, it is high time contract of thin kind be drawn up at the proper period so that the County Judge and the commissioners may not find it necessary to accept and nay for a boat that is not complete and satisfactory In every particular.
