le
J. D. Meyer Severs His Con
nection With the City
Park Board.
POLICY OUT OF HARMONY
Letter From Mayor, Asking for With
drawal, Assigns no Reason, but
Friends of Meyer Say It
Is Due to roll tics.
At the request of Mayor Lane. Joseph
IX Meyer has tendered his resignation
as a member of the park board. In
a written communication, received by
Mr. Meyer yesterday morning, the May
or asked that he sever his connection
with the board, in compliance with,
which r letter wa addressed by Mr.
Meyer to the Mayor a few hours later.
The Mayor in his letter assigned no
reason for his action, which came as
a complete surprise to tho recipient.
Mayor Lane said last night that he
believed, in asking for the resignation,
he was serving the best interests of
the city, as he did not consider Mr.
Meyer fully efficient for the position
which he held.
Mr. Meyer had served two years on
the park board prior to the adoption of
LEAi ES I'AHK BOARD.
the present charter. When that went
into effect he was appointed by Mayor
Williams for a term of four years,
which lie served up to the time of his
resignation yesterday. He has at all
times been one of the most active mem
bers of tho board, and has worked per
haps harder to bring about the beauti
fying of the present parks than any
other one man. Because of his efforts
In tills line, the request of Mayor Lane
came as the vreater surprise to the
lrlends of Mr. Meyer.
"I realize that Mr. Meyer has worked
hard for the park system," said Mayor
I-ane last night, "but I do not consider
that his efforts have been directed
along the right line. In getting up
concerts in Summer and in planning
attractions for the City Park Mr. Meyer
has been untiring, but I do not believe
that he works for the larger Interest
of the city as regards the extension of
the park system.
"Jn my mind there Is nothing of
more importance to Portland than the
acquisition of public parks and play
grounds for children, for this reason
I wish to surround myself with those
whose ideas are In harmony with my
own. I have nothing personal against
Mr. Meyer, and it is for this reason
nlone that I have asked his resigna
tion." The letter from the Mayor asking
the resignation was written Saturday,
but was not mailed until Monday and
was received by Mr. Meyer yesterday
morning. It follows:
Mr. Joseph D. Meyer, Portland. Or. Dear
Mr: For some time I have felt that It wa
my duty to request that you tender jour
resignation as a member of the Park Board
of thts city and if at this time you will
kindly do m I will esteem it a great favor.
Very respectfully yours,
HARRY LANE. Mayor.
After the receipt of the letter, Mr.
Meyer immediately complied with the
request in the following reply:
Hon. Harry Lane, Mayor of Portland
Dear Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge
receipt of your favor of the 9th Inst., re
ceived this A. M., and to assure you that It
affords me pleasure to comply with your
request, and In pursuance thereof I hereby
tender to you my resignation as a member
of the Park Board of this city, to take ef
fect at once. Yours very truly,
J. D. MEYER.
"The request of Mayor Lane came as
a complete surprise to me," said Mr.
Meyer last night. "I have nothing to
say in regard to It except that I have
complied with his wish. I have always
felt an interest in the work of the board
and have tried to do my duty as one of
the members. Of course I realize that I
differ from the Mayor In the matter of
politics."
The friends of Mr. Meyer declare that
he Is one of the most valuable men to
the city that ever served on the board,
and that the action of the Mayor is due
to political differences. They point to
the fact that Mr. Meyer Is a staunch
Republican and that he was appointed by
a Republican Mayor. This they say is
undoubtedly the motive that has
prompted the Mayor to get him oft the
board.
"It is true." said Mayor Lane, that Mr.
Meyer did not sympathize with my can
didacy for Mayor and has not been in
harmony with my administration. This,
however, was not the cause of my asking
tils wttnarawai irom tne board. If this
had been the reason. I should have asked
him to resign when I first came Into
office."
Mr. Meyer has been very active in
connection with the city administration
prior to the election of Mayor Lane. He
lias served as a member of the execu
tive board and acted upon the police) com
mittee. His successor on the park board
lias not yet been appointed.

Judge Ballinger Will Make
New Commissioner of General Land Office Sure to Add Strength
BY ARTHUR A. GREENE.
OR A number of years I've had an
overwhelming desire to meet a man
who had actually been pursued by
a public. Regularly each Spring when
the candidates bloom tra la la.
I've been informed by various aspiring
politicians, with an eye to the loaves and
fishes, that numerous friends and tax
payers were urging them to run for cer
tain offices, or to seek diverse and sundry
appointments. It has always been an
occasion for mirth and hilarity with, me
for I never believed that the office sought
the man, however much, I might approve
the academic theory. Yesterday, however,
I met the rara avis whom an office has
sought.
His name is Richard A. Ballinger and
he hails from that obstreperous rival
town Seattle, of which he was some time
Mayor, and for several years a prominent
and properly respected citizen, in spite of
the fact that he was Mayor.
Judge Ballinger, as is of common
knowledge, has Just been named as
Commissioner of the General Land Office
in spite of his efforts to side-step the
place. He is now on his way to Wash
ington City, where he will assume his
new duties on March 4 and he tarried
for the day at the Portland Hotel yes
terday where It was my good fortune to
meet him. He is the type of man who
accomplishes things energetic but delib
erate, well-poised, confident, inquiring,
with a conservatism born of years of
varied experience on the bench and at
the bar.
Judge Ballinger is still on the sunrise
side of 50. but is alrea-dy quite gray In
the matter of mustache and hair. He
came to the Northwest in 1898 and has
been closely identified with the state of
"Washington since that time. He located
at Port Townsend and shortly after
ward was elected judge of the Superior
Court and his opinions are held as
models among the legal fraternity of the
state. He codified the laws of Wash
ington in such admirable form that his
code is accepted generally as weUnigh a
perfect arrangement.
In 1S97 he removed to Seattle, his term
as Judge having expired, where he entered
the practice of the law, the style of his
firm being Ballinger & Battle. He very
soon became a leader of the Seattle bar
and built up a lucrative practice. In 1904
he was elected Mayor of the city, his
term having expired last Sprlnsr. His
career as an officeholder is limited to
three public positions. First as City
Attorney of New Decatur. Ala., in the
latter 'SO's; Judge of the Superior Court
of Washington, and Mayor of Seattle.
He isn't a politician ana onioe-seeking
has been his last consideration. These
three jobs came to him naturally because
people wanted him. Just as President
Roosevelt and Secretary Garfield, that-is-to-be
wanted him at the head of the
Government land department.
The Judge's father. "Dick Ballinger,
who read law in Abraham Lincoln's- of
fice and was a leading abolitionist before
the Civil War, removed with his family
to Western Kansas in the early '70's. The
new Commissioner grew up in the atmos
phere of the frontier, which had its
margin at Lamed then before Dodge
City and Bat Masterson figured on the
map.
Later the young man was sent to a
freshwater college at Topeka. and still
later to Williams College, where he
graduated in 18S4. At Williams he was
a schoolmate of James R. Garfield, who is
soon to become Secretary of the Interior.
Garfield graduated a year later, but they
were closely associated, and a friendship
was then formed which has continued
uninterruptedly during the score and more
of years that iyive elapsed. In 1SS6
Judge Ballinger was admitted to the bar

at Chicago, and after practising for a
time at Kankakee, in that state, he
went to Alabama.
He has been a consistent Republican
during all the years of his manhood, hav
ing in many campaigns repledged his
loyalty to the party which his father
helped to organize.
It is an absolute fact that the Judge
took the Commissionership under pres
sure. It might almost be said under
duress. When originally offered the place
by the President he declined; later Mr.
Garfield wired him at the request of Mr.
Roosevelt to reconsider and he asked for
time to think it over. Then Mr. Roose
velt sent him a telegram 160 words long
calling him to the post and urging him
to serve as a matter of duty.
Now, Judge Ballinger had a law prac
tice worth several, times the JSOOO per
annum which the Commissioner of the
General Land Office . takes down from
the National treasury. Being also a man
of sundry other business interests,
among-them a place on the directorate
of the Scandinavian-American Bank of
Seattle, and having much substance at
stake, he did some high and lofty think
ing. But the end of it was that he ac
cepted and so another big man becomes
part and parcel of the Roosevelt adminis
tration. During his brief stay In Portland,
CONTRACTORS WANT PAY
Demand Pay for Street Work From
St. Johns Council.
Recorder Thorndyke was instructed by
the St. Johns Council at the meeting last
night to proceed at once with the collec
tion of all delinquent street assessments.
O. J. Perkjns, representing the street con
tractors, was present, and demanded that
the contractors be paid their money, for
which they had been waiting for some
time.
A resolution was passed expressing the
sympathy of the Council to the widow on
the death of City Engineer William
Wordsworth Goodrich, and the Recorder
was instructed to convey the expression
from the Council to her.
A proposition was received to fix the
license and regulate the plumbing busi
ness in St. Johns, the object being to
protect local plumbers from outside
plumbers. It was decided to invite the
plumbers of the town to submit an ordi
nance embodying their views at the next
meeting of the Council
On motion the St. Johns Transporta
tion Company was granted an extension
of time to April 15, in which to complete,
its ferry-boat now under construction. By
its franchise the company was to have
the boat finished by March 1, but bad
weather made this Impossible.
Extension of Richmond street is still
held up by Mrs. Nancy Caples until such
time as the Council rescinds all former
proceedings. When this has been done,
Mrs. Caples will give a deed to a right of
way through her property. The former
proceedings leave a Jog in the street, but
to this she objects.

to National Administration
Judge Ballinger busied himself with
Investigating local needs of the service
and it is suspected he asked a number
of pertinent questions. He is not given
to telling about the things he intends
to do and he parried most of my ques
tions. In fact, the only definite statement
he gave out for publication was that
he Intended to ascertain immediately
on coming to the office if the railroad
company's selection of lieu lands had
been properly accounted, and if not to
undertake a reform in that direction.
He says that being simply a lieutenant
of the Secretary of the Interior It is
not becoming of him to talk about
policies and that the President's Sec
retary's policies will be but for him to
carry out.
Beyond that Judge Ballinger is too
wise in his day .and generation to
say.
Having had some little experience
In estimating men I am prepared to
give it as my opinion that the land

City Baseball League Formed.
The Portland City Baseball League,
which was formed Monday night, is com
posed of six teams, each of which has
made a deposit to guarantee that it will
play through the entire season. The con
stitution and by-laws of the National
Baseball League were adopted, and they
will be followed as nearly as possible by
the local league.
Mutnomah Club has entered the organi
zation, and Manager Eastman, of the
club team, is vice-president of the league.
H. K. Smith was elected secretary and
C. A. Partlow treasurer. No one was
eleoted president, as the managers could
not agree on any person. It is probable
that the old Lewis and Clark Exposi

MRS. T. W. TAYLOR IS RELEASED
FROM JAIL OX $2 000 BAIL.
H. II. Wilson, Her "Companion When
Arrested, Is Stilt Jn Custody, Be
ing: Vnable to Secure Bail.
After remaining in the women's ward
of the City Jail, crying and sobbing U1
night, Mrs. T. W. Taylor, who was
arrested at Oregon City Monday night
while boarding a Southern Pacific train
for California In company with H. H.
Wilson, was transfen-ed to the County
Jail yesterday, but lal e In the afternoon
succeeded in securing $2000 bail, and was
liberated.
Wilson, who has cat a. wide swath In
society circles and at "swell" cafes and
roadhouses for a long itlme. Is still occu
pying a cell In the 'County Jail, being
unable as yet to rals-e $2000 bail neces
sary for his release.
Mrs. Wilson still declares she will
prosecute her husbami and Mrs. Taylor
on the statutory charge she preferred
against them Monday afternoon, despite
efforts by some of his '.friends to dissuade
her, and in the Municipal Court yester
day morning, the wouild-be elopers were
held for preliminary (hearing tomorrow,
but both were commltued to the County
Jail in default of bail. Lawyers B. S.
Pague and N. D. Simon, have been engaged
by the defense.
It is said that Wilson, who is the father
of three little children, whom he de
serted to flee with Mrs. Taylor, has
spent large sums in recent weeks enter
taining Mrs. Taylor. Where he secured
this money is not known.
At police headquarters. Mrs. Wilson,
who confronted him J mmedlately after
his arrest, accused him f stealing money,
but he made no reply.
"You stole money, you wretch, to buy
wine and dresses for tlm woman there."
shouted Mrs. Wilson at her husband as
he stood at the desk at headquarters,
waiting to be locked up. "But you left

It developed yesterday that Mrs. Wil
son had suspected her husband's Infatu
ation for Mrs. Taylor for some time, and
that she had placed the case in the hands
of a local detective agency. At head
quarters, she loudly cried to him that
she had documentary evidence he had
lived with Mrs. Taylor several weeks
under the name of Davis. Wilson made
no reply, neither did Mrs. Taylor, who Is

with Mrs. Wilson in physical proportions.
