Weir Informed t'lty Prosecutor Tomlin

though he was very much grieved a
the destruction of his one and only hat.
After tie had sworn to the complaint
he said he hoped the judge would fine
"Pap" enough to pay for the hat. which
was of the S variety. w nen tola tna
any money received from "Pap" would
go into the city's coffers. Weir declaimed
at length on the injustice of the law in
doing that, as It was he that had sus

When court convened yesieraay

The track to that point will be tnree an-

RENDERS FORMAL OPINION
Advises Executive Board That Coun
cil Has Power to Pass Ordinance
Compelling Playhouses
to Foot Bills.
City Attorney Kavanaugh yesterday
transmitted to City Auditor Barbur an
opinion as to whether the municipality
has power to place firemen in the thea
ters and to compel payment for their
services by the management of the play
houses. Mr. Kavanaugh holds that such
power exists, and so advises the Execu
tive Board, the members of which sought
the information.
At the last meeting of the Executive
Board Marcus A. Fleischner, chairman
of the fire committee. Introduced a reso
lution, asking the City Council to pass
an ordinance . authorizing payment for
salaries of six firemen, who were to be
stationed at the theaters during: all per
formances. Some of the members of tne
Board, especially T. G. Greene, believed
the management of the theaters should
be made to pay for the services of the
extra firemen, and the matter was re
ferred to City Attorney Kavanaugh for
an opinion.
City Attorney Kavanaugh's opinion is
as follows:
Section 73 of the charter provides that the
Council has power and authority, subject to
the provisions, limitations and restrictions
in the charter contained, to exercise within
the limits of the City of Portland all the
powers commonly knewn aa the police power,
to the same extent as the State of Oregon
has or could exercise said power within said
limit.
An ordinance requiring firemen to attend
theatrical performances as a preventive
agrains. Are is a police regulation looking to
the health, comfort and safety of the public.
tTnder the provision above quoted the police
power granted to the city in ample to author
ize such an ordinance. An ordinance prop
erly drawn would be within the powers
granted to the Council by section 73. and
would be valid unless it could be ehown
to be an unreasonable exercise of the police
power thus delegated.
It would appear that such a regulation Is
not an unreasonable exercise of the police
power.
The case of Tannebaum vs. Rehm was de
cided July 2, 1907, and is an interesting case
on this subject. The charter of Mobile dele
gated to that city police power as roi lows :
"The city shall have and exercise full police
powers within the limits of the City of
Mobile." The court held that under this dele
gation, which is the ime in effect as the
delegation of police power to the City of
Portland, the city had full authority to pass
such an ordinance. The ordinance in that
rase provided that it should be the duty of
the chief of the fire department to assign
one fireman to all performances at any the
ater, said fireman to be stationed at the flre
plmrs located on the stage, and whoee duty
it should be to have charge of the Are hose,
and in cane of fire to use every effort to ex
tinguish the Fame. The manager of th the-
MUSIC STUDENTS
Should Have Steady Nerves.
The nervous system of the musician
is often very sensitive and any habit
like coffee drinking may so upset the
nerves as to make regular and neces
sarv daily practice next to impossible.
"I practice from seven to eight hours
a day and study Harmony two "hours."'
writes a Mich, music student. "Last
September I was so nervous I could
practice only a few minutes at a time
and Mother said I would have to drop
my music for a year.
"This was terribly discouraging as
I couldn"t bear the thought of losing
a whole year of study. Becoming con
vinced that my nervousness was caused
largely by coffee, and seeing Postum
so highly spoken of, I decided I would
test it for awhile.
"Mother followed the directions
carefully and I thougnt I had never
tasted such a delicious drink. We
drank Postum every morning instead of
coffee, and by November I felt more
like myself than for years, and was
ready to resume my music.
"I now practice aa usual, do my
studying and when my day's work Is
finished I am not any more nervous
than when I began.
"I cannot too highly recommend
Postum to musicians who practice half
a day. My father Is a physician and
recommends Postum to his patients.
Words cannot express my appreciation
for this most valuable health beverage,
and experience has proven Its superi
ority over all others." '"There's a
Reason."

ater was required to pay the fireman for
his services. It was also made the duty
of such fireman to see that all fire apparatus
was in place and in working order prior to
each performance. The ordinance was as
sailed upon the ground of unreasonableness.
Upon this point, the court said: "The ordi
nance cannot be paid to be unreasonable in
that the city assumes to designate the man
to perform the particular service or impose
the duty of paying for such service upon the
manager. The duty of protecting the per
son or citizen from dangers of fire in the
exercise of police power would- seem to carry
with it' the right to employ the most effective
means to that end; and this would include
the rirht of designating competent agents or
servants for the performance of suoh duty.
Of course, mir-h cost or expense must be fair
and reasonable. We are ot the opinion that
the ordinance was clearly within the police
power of the municipality, and that It is not'
unreasonable."
The Executive Board is therefore advised
that the Council has the authority to pass
an ordinance providing that a fireman shall
be In attendance at each theatrical per
formance in the City of Portland, and- re
quiring the management of the theaters to
pay him a reasonable compensation for such
service.
