THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1906. C0QU1LLE FIGHTS LOCALOPTIONLAW Passes Charter Amendment Giving Its Council Control . of Liquor Traffic. TEST CASE WILL FOLLOW Vnti-Saloon eague Will Ascertain If Recent Constitutional Amend ment Gives Cities and Towns Power to Repeal Law. TOWNS MAY KSCAPE IXCAI OPTION LAW BY AMENDING THEIR OWN CHARTERS. Following Is the constitutional amendment adopted by the peopla of Oregon June 4, 1900, under which towns In dry counties will attempt to set aside prohibition In their corporate limits, by amending their municipal charters so as to give their Councils power to regulate the liquor traffic, thus nullifying the local-option law within those limits. (The clause In which the question Is Involved Is contained In the words In bold type.): Article XI, Sec. 2. Corporations may be formed under general laws, but shall not be created by the Legis lative Assembly by special laws. The Legislative Assembly shall not enact, amend, or repeal any charter or act of Incorporation for any municipality, city, or town. The" legal voters of every city and town are hereby granted power to enact and amend their municipal charter, subject to the constitution and criminal laws of the State of Oregon. One town In Oregon Coqullle City, Coos County has already taken to Itself the authority to rejrulate the liquor traffic, despite the prohibition of the local-option law. Following this lead, towns in the nine dry counties may endeavor to do the Same, the most important of these towns being Eupene, Junction City, Al bany, MaMInnvllle, Tillamook, Toledo. Newport, Bandon, Corvallis, Moro, Was co, Joseph, Enterprise, Wallowa and Los tine. This will be done most probably in municipalities that have been voted dry not by their own electors but by those of contiguous territory. The alleged authority In this course Is the constitutional Amendment, above quoted, which gives "the legal voters of every city and town . . . power to en act and amend their municipal charters, subject to the constitution and criminal laws of the State of Oregon," which means, according to this Interpretation, that the electors of every town shall have authority to amend their municipal charter so as to regulate the liquor traf fic, independently of the restrictions of the local-option law, In the same way as before the local-option law was enacted or applied. Against this interpretation Is that of the anti-liquor forces, centered In the Anti-Saloon League, whose president. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, of Portland, and whose other leaders maintain that, as the local-option law is one of the "crimi nal laws" which the constitutional amend ment says must not be violated by home rule charter amendments, it is not law ful for any town to control for Itself the liquor traffic, in opposition to that law. Coqullle Amends Charter. The town of Coqullle was voted dry June 4 by an election held under the local option law. The town itself voted wet, but was made dry by the ballots of rural areas Included in the voting district, most of whose votes were outside the munici pality. On the same day the constitutional amendment was adopted by the electors of the state and became part of the or ganic law of the commonwealth. The town did not wish to lose Its sa loons. In the amendment Its City Attor ney saw a means of escape from prohibi tion. Accordingly, the Mayor and Council called a special election, for the purpose of amending the charter so as to restore to the Council the control of the liquor traffic, which was taken away by the pro hibition election of June 4. This was done on advice of the City Attorney, after con sultation with Portland attorneys. The election was held. July 9, resulting In the carrying of tne charter amendment by a vote of 114 to 20. This same amend ment had been contained In the charter before the election of June 4, but was then suspended by the dry mandate of the voting district. The effect of the second election of July 9, as its advocates hope, Is to restore that provision to the charter. Anti-Saloon League AV111 Act. The Anti-Saloon League is directing its attention to Cofluille, and may test the matter by causing the arrest of some liquor-dealer there, thus bringing the question before the courts. Members of the League feel that they must do some thing to prevent the spread of the Coqullle idea to other towns, for it is reported that It has already spread to Eugene, where a movement has been started along the Coqullle line, and to towns in Wallowa County, especially Joseph. The "criminal law'" question is the core of the dispute and is a subject for vary ing opinions among lawyers. The defend ers of the local-option act, under which, Coqullle was voted dry on June 4, aver that the "criminal law" clause of the constitutional amendment is adequate to stop any dispute and to prevent Coqullle from legalizing saloons. They say that they had a hand in drafting the consti tutional amendment and put in the "criminal law" words for the very pur pose of preventing what Coqullle has done and other towns plan to imitate. Is It "Criminal Law?" But many able lawyers dissent from them. They hold that the local-option act is an election law primarily and that it provides penalties for violation Just as every other election law does. After the election has been held and the eleo toral area has voted dry, the sale of liquor therein is a criminal act and then the law may have a criminal application. But a city, by amending Its charter to regain control of liquor, may not alter this criminal application at all only pro viding for a separate election in the mu nicipal limits, apart from the district or county that voted dry. By this method the city could enact into its charter the substance of the local option law, alter ing not the criminal features of that law only the territorial features. According to this view, the local option law has two parts: the one prescribing how It shall be determined that liquor shall be sold: the other prescrlbtnjr the prohibition. The second Is held to be the criminal part which a town may observe, while altering the other. According to other views, the local-option act is not a criminal law at all. Statute vs. Constitution. It Is to be borne in mind that the loeal option law is a statutory act, while the unsndment wiUi which It is said to bo in opposition Is a constitutional act, to which it Is subservient- The amendment was enacted after the local-option law, but the question of later enactment la not the vital one in this case, for a statu tory act cannot conflict with a constitu tional provision, and if there should be any collision between the two, the statu tory act must give way. The real Issue seems to be whether the local-option act is a criminal law. President Wilson, of the League, to gether with attorneys for that organiza tion, takes the "criminal law" view. He said last night that the liquor forces, un able to win from the people amendment or repeal of the local-option law, were taking to their one refuge technicality through which they hoped to beat the law. In his belief, however, the courts would judge the question by a funda mental principle, that of the will of tne people, who had declared themselves for the law and against its amendment by overwhelming majority. SHOULD BUY MORE MEAT Norwegian Inspector Favors In crease In Trade With Packers. NEW YORK, Aug. 2. Dr. Adolph Ja cobsen, chief Veterinary Inspector of the City of Chrlstiania, Norway, who has been Inspecting American packing-houses In behalf of the Norwegian government, sailed today on the Oskar II for Copen hagen and Chrlstiania. During his stay here he inspected packing-houses at Chi cago, Kansas City and New York, and visited Washington during the examina tion of the applicants for the new meat Inspectorships. "The big plants which I Inspected were most cleanly and satisfactory in their manner of operation," said Dr. Jacobsen, speaking of his Investigations at Chicago, which were the chief object of his visit. Before his departure. Dr. Jacobsen re marked that. If his home government acted upon his recommendations, there would be much more American canned meats and barreled beef bought in his country than there has been heretofore. He saw no reason to put any sort of re strictions upon American meat products bearing the Government stamp. MEAT INSPECTION IS NEEDED New Vork Health .Officer Finds Some Packerles Unsanitary. ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 2. Commissioner Porter, of the 9tate Department of Health, in a bulletin printed today, de clares that recent inspection of slaughter houses and meatpacking establishments by local health officers was carried out very thoroughly In nearly every part of the state. "While a comparatively small number of places were found in which the conditions could be considered as be ing very unsanitary," says Dr. Porter, "enough was discovered to show the value of maintaining an inspection of the places. The local boards have been prompt to act in ordering the premises cleaned and gen eral conditions bettered. The result has been a marked improvement In a large number of these establishments." American Meat Not Barred. LONDON, Aug. 2. Replying to a question in the House of Commons to day. Secretary of the Admiralty Rob ertson said that the men in the navy for the present would be allowed the option of drawing Australian or Argen tine corned beef in place or American meat, but it was not thought necessary to consider special measures for dispos ing of the American meats in stock, amounting to over 1,500,000 pounds, purchased in 1903. Armour Will Build New Plant. ST. PAUL, Aug. 2. It was learned definitely late today from St Paul business men that Armour & Co.. of Chicago, through their agents, have paid down about $40,000 as option money for the purchase of a large tract of land near the Minnesota Transfer Company's yards lylnar in the north west part of St- Paul and partly In Min neapolis for the purpose or. tunainr a proposed slaughtering plant. AT THE THEATERS AVhat the Frai Agcoti Say. French Athlete at Pantages. The athletio feats of Kins Ners, the French athlete who is at Pantages thla week, are a marveloua exhibition of atrength and daring. His act will cause you to catch your breath not once but many times. And there are six other big vaudeville acts, all going to make up one of the best shows of the season. Comical Climax at the Star. Hiding behind a screen in fear of exposure, Monte Collins and J. W. Clifford present a comical climax to "Three Married Men," whicll the Star stock company Is giving this week. It is a laughter show from one end of the programme to the other, and the houso is in a continual uproar of mirth. There is more aotlon and less talk in "Three Married Men" than in last week's bill. Praise for Grand's Bill. There la no mistake about the Quality of the vaudeville performance given at the Grand this week. Everyone in Portland is boosting the show because It is so extraordinarily good. The Belleclaire brothers, physical artists, have created a sensation because of their wonderful muscular development. They are two of the best specimens of the kind Portland has sebn at any time. Been to Lyric This Week? "The Smugglers," running this week at the Lyrlo Theater, is one of those plays of vivid human Interest and quaint character drawing that touches the heart and Interest one in tensely from start to finish. The Lyrlo la com fortable and the acting on the stage far above the average of stock companies. Telephone Linemen Out, The telephone linemen for the Home Telephone Company are still out and at present both sides seem deter mined to maintain their position to the end. Both the union leaders and the company officials express themselves as confident of ultimate success. C. A. Elmore, secretary of the union, when seen last night, said: "We are merely striking for an agreement with the Home Telephone Company. Our linemen have a con tract with the Empire Electrical Com pany for $3 per day, which was signed up last Fall covering a period of two years. This contract is satisfactory so long as it lasts, but the Empire Company will finish work in six or eight months and turn things over to the Home Company, and we will have nothing." Victory for the Open Shop. ASTORIA, Or., Aug. 2. (Special.) The machinists' strike at the- Astoria Iron Works was settled this evening, after be ing in effect for four days, and the men will return to work tomorrow morning. The machinists withdraw their demand to have the discharged union men reinstated, and the company, in turn, discharges one man to whom the union machinists ob jected. The shop remains "open." Salem Bog-Owners Fight Tax. SALEM. Or., 'Aug. 2. (Special.) An In junction suit was brought here this after noon to enjoin the city officials from try ing to enforce a recently-enacted city or dinance the purpose of which was to di minish the dog nuisance by imposing a heavy license feee. A number of dogown ers raised a fund, and suit was brought in the name of A. Smith, a dogbreeder. HARRIMAN LOSES Blf FREIGHT TIE-UP Seven Thousand Loaded Cars Are Lying Idle in San - Francisco. EARN NOTHING FOR OWNERS Shippers and Public Are Trged to Be Patient Freight Is Still Pil ing Up and the Wheat Harvest Is On. The raising of the embargo on San Francisco shipments over the Southern Pacific is not yet in sight, and from pres ent indications It will be some time before freight to the ruined city can be handled. The congestion that now obtains can hardly be imagined. Every available track and siding in and around San Francisco is NEW HEAD OF THE 1 t r 1 If General Hagroa. when the offender redeems it by hard was never known to punish a private his superior. filled with cars waiting to be relieved of their loads. For 100 miles out of San Francisco the sidings are filled with box cars, space for which cannot be found anywhere In the city. About 7000 loaded cars have been lying Idle in and around San Francisco, waiting to be unloaded. This number is about 20 per cent of the freight rolling stock of the Southern Pacific. Its detention means a tremendous loss to the company. The big number of idle cars, whose value averages almost J1000 each, represents a huge Investment which is earning nothing for the owners, while the loss In business is a serious thing. Julius Kruttschnitt, director of mainte nance and operation of the Harrlman lines. Is personally doing everything pos sible to relieve the congestion, but his most hopeful word to shippers is to urge patience and forbearance. Meanwhile the wheat harvest is on and the cars now rusting on sidings will be sadly needed in all parts of Harrlman territory. The sur plus freight that is piling up, awaiting shipment, will be handled with difficulty when freight again moves south. "We, ourselves, are the hardest hit by the San Francisco situation," said a high traffic official of the Harrlman lines yes terday. "Everything possible is being done to help matters out. but until they are adjusted people should not roast us for the condition. We are assailed by both newspapers and shippers as If we brought about the congestion to embarrass others. "We are In the railroad business to haul freight and passengers, and the more we can haul the better we are satisfied. The tie-up in San Francisco is a serious thing for the railroad. Both Mr. Kruttschnitt and Mr. Schwerin are doing everything possible, and missionary work la being done to get consignees to use all haste in unloading and storing their freight. Until the situation is improved the public should be patient." With the close of the fiscal year June SO the Southern Pacific reached $100,000,000 In gross earnings, which was unprecedent ed. This, too, despite the fact that for a time following the San Francisco fire the company carried passengers free at heavy cost to the railroad. The disaster also brought a paralysis of Industry for a pe riod directly following the earthquake in which the company suffered heavily in lost business. With the determination to rebuild the city, however, came orders that would have meant probably the heaviest rail traffic in the history of the country, had the railroad been prepared to handle It, With the tie-up of freight, this lucrative movement will be curtailed or postponed, and It is likely that traffic officials will have difficulty in improving on the earn ings of last year in view of their thou sands of idle cars. ROAD WILL BE DOUBLE-TRACK From Vancouver to Cape Horn Par allel Tracks Will Be Built. Not only will the Portland & Seattle Railway line be double-tracked between Portland and Vancouver, but for a con siderable distance up the Columbia as well, making the longest stretch of double-track railway in the Northwest, Announcement has been made by offi cials of the new Hill line that for a dis tance of 25 miles, from Vancouver to Cape Horn, the road will be built with two parallel tracks. The same will be true of a stretch of 12 miles long between Kennewlck and Hover, on the Upper Co lumbia, Both tracks will be built and operated at the same time, it being the idea of the Hill officials that it will be cheaper to construct two parallel tracks for long distances than build sidings at frequent intervals. During the grain-thaullng sea son, particularly, the added trackage fa cilities are expected to be necessary. Troops Coming Next Week. Advices have been received by the Southern Pacific passenger department that three special trains of troops lor the American Lake encampment will reach. Portland from California August 7 or 8. The troops expected are the Twentieth Infantry and three compa nies of the Fourteenth Cavalry. They leave San Francisco August 4 or 6. PLANS RAILWAY TO STATTON Willamette Valley Company to Build Electric Line From Salem. The project of an electrio line from Salem to Stayton, a distance of 28 miles, has been started by the Willam ette Valley Company, a concern headed by A. Welch, with whom are said to be associated Eastern" capitalists. It Is planned to expend about $500,000 on the scheme, which will give transpor tation facilities to a rich agricultural district along the Santiam, from which stream it is expected to get electrio power in the future for the projects now being carried out by the Willam ette Valley Company. It is said that surveyors have been in the field running preliminary sur veys for the projected road for the past few weeks. How soon the rights of way will be secured and the pro moters of the plan will be ready to proceed with actual construction Is not yet known. MUST BEHAVE OR GO TO JAIL Mrs. Rosa Be Clcco Threatens Life ' of Former Husband. Unless Mrs. Rosa De Clcco consents to leave Portland and agrees not to molest her former husband Antonio FRENCH ARMY The new Generalissimo of the French army Is General Hagron. He was a prominent figure in Paris during the Presidency of M. Carnot, as a member of the President's mil itary household. As Colonel of the One Hundred and Nineteenth Regl- ment of Infantry, to the command of which he was appointed In 1S33,? he developed those eminent qual ities as a Boldler which even then marked him as the coming man. Since that period he has been In command of the Sixth Army Corps the iron division which guards the frontier and has thus an intimate knowledge of the point of concen tration of the French armies in case of mobilization. As a member of the consell superieur de la guerre, and destined to the command of an army. General Hagron studied deeply the grave problem of revict nallng. He has also initiated the excellent practice of bringing to gether his own staff and the staffs of the various army corps which would compose his command, so that they may learn to work to gether and be trained according to his ideas. General Hagron is greatly loved by all ranks, in spite of his severity. His men have absolute confidence in him. He never worries them with petty punishments and is al ways ready to overlook a fault work and punctuality. Moreover, he for a fault due to the negligence of De Clcco, she must remain in the Coun. ty jail and serve a sentence of nine months for striking him on the bead with a bar of steel. Mrs. De Cicco was released three months ago on parole. A week ago An tonio was married to another woman and Rosa, upon hearing the news, went to the house of the couple and threat ened to kill them both with a revolver. She was arrested and incarcerated and yesterday had a hearing in Judge Fra zer's court. She denied the charge and Mr. De Clcco called witnesses to prove that she threatened to kill him and also his new wife. Pauline Russo, a little girl, so testified. "The courts have had sufficient trouble with this woman," said Judge Frazer in disposing of the case. "It appears that she has already made two attempts to kill her recently divorced husband, and we cannot have her going around with murderous designs. This thing must come to an end. She can either go back to jail and finish her term of one year or leave the city. She Is remanded to the Sheriff." Mrs. De Cicco has not yet decided If she will go away or stay In Jail. Her two sons, of which Antonio is the father, are in the reform school, and a little daughter is in St. Mary's Home. CARRIES VIAL OF POISON San Francisco Refugee Found to Have Strychnine In Possession. W. A. Gibson, a San Francisco refugee, was arrested at an early hour yesterday morning on a charge of standing around the streets. He seemed pleased at the chance of getting a comfortable bed at the Jail. When searched, preparatory ' to being locked up, Gibson was found to have a small vial of strychnine In his pocket. He said that when the world got to be such a bitter dose that he could stand it no longer .he Intended using the strychnine. Evidently the man felt he might get unbearably tired of life at any time, and he wanted to have the neces sary mode of transportation to another world all In readiness. Yesterday morning In Police Court Gib son seemed to be feeling In a better mood: He declared that he had found the poi son and picked it up as a curiosity. Upon promising to secure employment at once he was released by Judge Cameron. Joint Rates Announced. A Joint rate of tOA cents on catsup and canned goods from San Francisco to Spo kane Is announced by the Harrlman and Hill lines, to become effective August 10.

STEAM SCHOONERS FIRST Project of Captain Chilcott for Pur chase of Interests of Nome Har bor Improvement Company Also to Be Considered. A steamship line between Portland and Alaska Is reasonably assured. The proposition was thoroughly dis cussed at a meeting of a special com mittee from the Board of Trade and a number of representative business men held last evening. The report of the committee suggested the immediate formation of the Portland-Alaska Steamship Company and the subscrip tion of sufficient capital to provide for acquiring a controlling Interest in the Nome Harbor Improvement Company. The idea Is to establish a line of steam schooners, sailing from Portland within the next few months. The schooners are to be substituted as soon as possible by a number of modern, well-equipped and fast steamships, built to carry freight and to take care of the passenger business as well. Captain Richard Chilcott, represent ing the Nome Harbor Improvement Company, addressed the meeting, ex plaining his proposition. The purchase of this concern by the people of Port land will Include many improvements that have already been made and the harbor works at that point. Resolutions were passed receiving the report of the committee, confirm ing the members In office, and sug gesting the appointment of commit tees of three from the Chamber of Com merce, the Commercial Club, the Manu facturers' Association and a similar committee from the Board of Trade, to meet with Captain Chilcott to discuss the steamship proposition under con sideration. The general expression of the meet ing was to the effect that as wide a subscription as possible be made to finance the steamship line, rather than to secure large individual Investments. Several business men present stated that they had been Interested In the venture from the beginning and now that the proposition had been launched assured the committee of their co-operation and offered to subscribe sums ranging from J5000 to J10.000. W. H. Moore, of the Oregon Trust & Savings Bank was one of those who offered to take stock. After the meeting of the committees from the different business men's or ganizations with Captain Chilcott, and In case they are as well pleased with the proposition as the meeting last night, the matter will be put before the people, and all those desiring may take stock in the company. The special Board of Trade steamship committee Is composed of the follow ing: J. Frank Watson, chairman; W. H. Beharrel, E. W. Brown, George M. Brown, W. H. Chapin, Wallls Nash, T. N.
