At Meeting ot Homeopathic Medical
Society Gives Reasons for
Other States Actions.
The State Homeopathic Medical Society
met yesterday in Its thirteenth annual
convention at the Alisky Hall, with Dr.
T. L. McKenxle. of Portland. In the pres
ident's chair. The morhing session was
devoted to routine business and the elec
tion of officers for the ensuing year. The
following; were elected: Dr. A. W. Vin
cent, of St.-Johns,- president: Dr. D. O.
Webster, of University Park, vice-president:
Dr. Nellie Smith-Vernon," second
Vice-president; Dr. Emma J. Welty, treas
urer, and Dr. Charles BUllngton. secre
tary. The board of censors and the legislative
Committee were re-elected for another
jear. The attendance at the morning; ses
sion was not very large, but In the after
noon more than 30 members were present
to hear the discussions. Dr. Byron . B.
Miller, member' of the State Board of
Medical Examiners, addressed the conven
tion, mentioning: the comparative laxity of
Oregon laws In regard to the admission
of applicants to practice medicine In this
state. He said that the reason Oregon
was unable to make any reciprocal trea
ties with other states In regard to the ex
change of doctors' certificates, was that
In Oregon It was not necessary to be a
graduate of a medical college to be ad
mitted to the examinations. The Oregon
examination, said the speaker, .was. not
below that of the strictest state In the
Union, but he admitted that the probable
reason why California refused to make a
reciprocal treaty with this state some time
go was that several doctors practicing in
this state weer not graduates of any col
lege. The afternoon session opened with the
president's address, after which the fol
lowing programme was carried out:

man; "Drug Proving," C. H. T. Atwood,

A committee of three doctors was ap
pointed to honor the memory of the late
Dr. G S. Wigg. of this city, and the ses
sion adjourned till 10:30 o'clock this morn
ing. This afternoon's session will close
the annual convention, and today's meet
ing promises to be the most Important of
the convention.
HALF OUT AND HALF IN
Peculiar Situation of the Mount Ta
bor School District.
The situation of Mount Tabor School
district No. 5 is somewhat peculiar. The
north half, 'in which a considerable por
tion of the school -children live, is now In
the city and part, of Portland district, or
will be July 1, while that part south of
the Base Line road is part of the city, but
is not connected with the Portland dis
trict. This situation was brought about
when the south half was annexed to Port
land, a special provision being made tnat
the school should not be affected. The
schoolhouses, except a two-room struc
ture, are in the southern portion. To rem
edy the situation and bring the entire dis
trict, with all- its property, under the con
trol of Portland District No. 1. all the
taxpayers of No. 5 will vote at the school
meeting to be held in the West avenue
building Monday evening, June 18.
If annexation should happen to be de
feated in the Mount Tabor district. It
would give Portland the north half of the
district with a lot of children without
schoolhouses, but would leave out a frag
ment of the Mount Tabor district with
two large schoolhouses and with few pu
pils. However, annexation is expected to
carry by a large majority. The present
corps of 15 teachers, except Superintend
ent Adams, who goes to the Portland
Academy in the Fall, will be re-elected
for district No. E. ,

ROTATION IN THE SHIFTS
POLICEMEX OX GRAVEYARD
WATCH SIGX PETITION'.
When weak, weary and worn out.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is Just the medicine
to restore strength.
Ask That Every Four Months the
Men Be Changed on
These Watches.
Believing that considerable favoritism
has been shown in assigning policemen to
each of the three reliefs, those who do
duty on the second night relief, commonly
known as the "graveyard watch," have
signed and presented to Chief Grltzmach
er, to be given to Mayor Lane, a. petition
asking that each relief be assigned to
duty for a period of four months on every
ehift.
Under the present system there are po
licemen who have traveled beats during
eight hours of daylight for several years
without a change, while others, many of
whom have wives and families, have
never, with the exception of an hour or
two in the afternoons, seen the sun. Port
land is the only city on the Paaclfic Coast
that has such a system, but repeated com
plaints have been of no avail. At the re
cent police inspection Mayor Lane asked
that any grievances which they might
have be submitted to him and that, if it
were in his power, he would right them
if possible. Taking the Mayor at his
word, the following petition, has been
drawn up and forwarded to him:
"Whereas, We, in common with all fair
minded people, believe in a 'square deal
for all holding that any policeman should
be able and willing to serve on any beat
or shift, otherwise he could not be con
sidered a well-qualified policeman, we, the
undersigned members of the second night
relief, hereby respectfully ask that the
policemen's, shifts be changed every four
months, giving all of us an opportunity to
work four months on the second night
relief, four months on the flret night re
lief and four months on the day relief.
Believing this to be of great Importance
regarding both the service to the public
and harmony among the policemen, we
pray that you give this your most earnest
consideration, especlaly as the entire po
lice force is in sympathy with this re
quest." The petition was signed by all members
of the second night relief with one or two
exceptions.

T ANOTHER FIREBOAT
INCREASED INSURANCE RATES
REQUIRE MORE PROTECTION.
Business Men of Portland Intend to
Submit BUI to Legislature Au
thorizing a New Boat.
Business men of this city are agitating
the building of another flreboat for use as
a means of fire protection along Port
land's growing water front. The mer
chants behind this- move are not con
demning the boat now In use, for they
are almost unanimous' in their approval
of the efficiency of the George H. Wil
liams, but they desire another boat which
would add to the safeguarding against
disastrous fires along the river.
The men who are behind the proposi
tion to secure the added protection state
that the Increase in insurance rates for
certain portions of this city are becom
ing prohibitive and that unless something
Is done very shortly to relieve the situa
tion, business firms will be out consider
ably by the high rates.
The proposition Involves a plan for the
submission of a bill to the next Legis
lature providing for the building of a
new flreboat to be larger and faster and
capable of throwing heavier streams than
the boat now In use, which shall be
built by the- City of Portland within a
certain time. The provisions for the new
boat require that it shall be con
stricted of steel and be equipped
with all the latest up-to-date fire-fighting
appliances, and provisions are to be made
later for the berthing and housing of the
vessel and crew
In referring to the proposition, K M.
Brannlck stated that the Portland Com
mercial Club and Chamber of Commerce
were behind the movement and that
these organisations would see to it that
such a bill would be presented to the
Legislature at the next session.
The East Side Is especially desirous of
this equipment, according to Mr. Bran
nlck. who states that since the vetoing
of the East Side fire limits ordinance
by Mayor Lane, Insurance rates have ad
vanced 21 per cent on account of the
large number of frame structures being
erected in the business district on the
other side of the river.
Cows May Not Run at Large.
Sixty days' notice, which is required by
law, will be published by County Clerk
Fields against cows running at large In
Woodstock and Lents precincts. The elec
tors In these two precincts at the recent
election voted against free cows, and in
future the bovlnes must be tied with a
rope to a stake, or be liable to arrest, and
the owner fined. If the owner neglects
to pay the fine, the cow can be sold by
the Constable of the precinct, and may
be slaughtered by the purchaser to ob
tain funds to meet the demands of the
court. . This course of procedure differs
vastly. with events of pioneer days, when
cows ran all over Portland, and were con
spicuous figures in the capital grounds at
Salem,- and their -favorite haunts were
frequent subjects of discussion at the
time of Legislative sessions, by members
from the cow counties.
MAY CLOSE ON SUNDAYS
Effort to Be Made to Shut Up
Gresham Saloons.
GRESHAM. Or., June li-(Speclal.)
Eastern Multnomah is still "wet" from
the Portland city limits at Montavilla as
far as the county line extends eastward.
Some of the precincts had. a few spasms
before election, when an effort was made
to force them. to go "dry," but for some
reason unknown the issue was not forced
by the Prohibitionists even after the pe
titions were signed to put the local op
tion question on the ballots. Now that
the liquor element Is breathing freely
again for two years, another nightmare
has arisen to confront the saloons of
Gresham. The Common Council has un
der consideration a petition to close the
saloons on Sundays. There are three sa
loons in Gresham over which the Coun
cil has jurisdiction, but there is a loud
cry going up that something more than
morality is behind the movement. Fred
T. Merrill is just now an element in
this section and has just opened his new
roadhouse on the base line. Those who
know his resourceful methods are not
slow to assert that he Is behind the
effort to close the Gresham saloons ton
Sundays for his own profit. The City
Council has this matter under advise
ment, but an ordinance has been pre
pared and will be acted upon at the next
Council meeting.
