PACKERS SUGGEST

COMPROMISE
Draft New Ordinance Forbid
ding Maintenance of Any
Slaughter-House.
WILL SUBMIT IT TODAY
Kcrrsentativcs of Sctmartzschlld &
Sulzberger Contend That Amend
ed tranehise 'Will Meet All
Objections to Big Plans.
An entirely new ordinance permitting
thu Schwartzschild & Sulzberger inter
ests lo build and operate a modern packing-plant
within the city limits, and
at the same time prohibiting the main
tenance of a slaughter-house within the
Hmc limit, will be submitted to the
committee on health and police at its
meeting at 11 o'clock today. At the same
time a strong petition from property
owners !n South Portland will be pre
sented asking that the ordinance be
passed.
It will be stipulated in the ordinance
that the plant shall mret all require
ments imposed by me United States au
thorities to regulate such industries. The
new ordinance to be submitted is in the
nature of a compromise proposition as
tho bond that was suggested from tho
Si'liwartZNchlld Sulzberger people
proved objectionable. What favor the
committee will show the new ordinance
r'-malns to be seen. Members of the com
mittee are Councilmen Concannon, chair
man, Annand and Wills.
Deny Zimmerman Rumor.
The suRgostion that has been made
tha.t the grhwartzpchild & Sulzberger
prnple are acting in tire interests of
.nui Zimmerman, seeking to permit
him to operate his slaughter-house on
the old site, is stoutly denied by the
Srltwartzsehild & Sulzberger people and
the new ordinance seems to explode this
etory.
Opposition to the erection of a packing
plant on the old Zimmerman site comes.
It is said, from people who have prop
erty on the Peninsula, at I.iunton and
In otjier parts of the city that would be
cnlifmrcil In value by the erection of a
p;tcking-house nearby, as well as from
the rival parking interests. It was said
last night that practically everp property-owner
In the district where the. new
plant will he located is favorable to the
erection of the Schwartzschild & Sulz
berger plant on the old Zimmerman site
ami will petition the Council to that
effect.
The business done by the Schwartz
schild & Sulzberger packing-plant in a
year Is given as over $1 ."(. OrtO.OUO or more
than the earnings pf the llarriman sys
tem of railroads in the same period. This
tn-nii-mltfiia business is handled in four
pi. mis, one at New York, another at
Smith OiiihIih. one at Chicago, which it
is proposed to duplicate at Portland,
ami the establishment at Kansas City.
The Schwartzschild & Sulzberger people
iiavu no small plants anywhere. .
1). S. Stearns Gives Views.
Havitl S. Stearns, who is quite heavily
Interested in Sou! h Portland . property,
favors granting the Schwartzschild &
pulzhergrr people the right to operate
nn the old Zimmerman site. He said
last night:
'The South Portland people are in
favor of the plant and they are cer
tainly the ones to be consulted. If the
establishment proves a nuisance. South
Portland people will be the ones to
suffer and it will be their property that
U be affected. However, they believe
that the operation of a packing-house
thero will be a great benefit to their
fiction as well as to the entire city.
"f am of tho same opinion. A modern
establishment that meets the require
ments of the Government is not a
slaughter-house and one that costs
J-'.iW.OrtO. as I understand this establish
mtnt will cost, will be a credit to that
part of tho city and will build it up.
That It will benefit the whole city is
apparent, for it will mean a labor center
at the south as well as the north of
Portland, and will not mean the build
ing up of the city only at the north. The
packing-house proposed will consume
ex cry thing, hides, horns, blood and offal
aud there Is no reason why it should
bo offensive.''

PROBE SELLWDOD SCHOOL
COMMITTEE FILES FINDINGS
WITH BOARD OF TKADE.
Recommends That Additional Stair
way Be Built and Exterior
Fire Escapes Erected.
TV. H. Golding, J. W. Campbell and D.
A. Thompson, appointed by the Sellwood
Board of Trade to Investigate the con
dition of the Sell wood schoothouse, , have
filed their report. It ia set forth that
fire drills are held frequently and that
exits are kept tree. It fs recommended
that a stairway be place! at the south
end of the upper hail leading to exit
below, to allow escape In that direction.
The committee also noted the absence of
fire escapes on the outside of the build
ing;, and reports that they should be pro
vided, to afford means of escape from
any room in case of fire obstructing the
doorway in the hall.
The door leading from the children's
basement into the janitor's basement and
thence to the outside from south end of
basement is too narrow to accommodate
a crowd in case of a panic and should
be made double its present width. The
committee conclude:
We take the liberty to travel beyond the
scope of authority delegated by you and of
fer some criticism upon the lack of out
door playgrounds' for the children. The base
ment, a very poor substitute for outdoor
ground at the best. Is too small to provide
playroom for 600 children, while the tramp
ling of so many small feet, frequently carry
ing clay from our ur. paved streets, produces
dust upon the cement floor, that rles and
Alls the air. to the manifest injury of lungs
and throats and possibly carrying germs of
insidious disease. A frequent flushing of the
cement floor would help for a short time
only, but -would be likely to render the base
ment damp and objectionable on that ac
count. We are informed, as above indicated, that
contracts have been let for four additional
rooms to be built this coming Summer upon
the ecuth end of the present structure. There
are already classes to occupy three of these
rooms, two classes now occupying the assem
bly hall to the exclusion of everything else,
and one class occupying a temporary struc
ture etandlng on Multnomah street and shel
tering also a class in manual training. By
time of opening the September term this
addition will be overcrowded, together with
the present rooms, and we will be again
calling for increased evhool facilities. All
this a p pea rs fro m the present an X proa
pective growth of Silwood.
To recapitulate, we recommend stairway
from south end of upier hall and fire-escapes
on outide of each room and widening of
doorway between front and rear parts of
basement.
Though not within the scope of our in
struct ions, we recommend the acquirement
of additional grounds which are needed now
for additional playgrounds and will be needed
very eoon for additional buildings.
We fel that ample grounds- should be se
cured now. w bile property fs cheap, and

The Doctor Knows.
Note what your Doctor drinks.
You will find itgenerally a beer, and a bottled beer. And the label is usually Schlitz.
He is a man who knows.
He knows that beer is healthful, and every day he prescribes it. The hops are a
tonic, the barley is food. The trifle of alcohol is an aid to digestion.
That is why he drinks beer.
But he knows that beer must be pure, else there are germs in it. And he knows
that beer must be aged, else biliousness comes from it.
That is why he drinks Schlitz..
He knows that we double the necessary cost of our brewing to insure absolute
purity. We carry cleanliness to extremes. We filter, not only the beer, but even
the air that cools it. And we sterilize every bottle.
Do as your Doctor does.
The demand of today is for purity among the millions who know.
Schlitz and insist on it.
The Beer That Made
They order
There are now so
many of them that our sale exceeds
1,500,000 barrels annually.

IX JUXXERS.
Deputy City Attorney Tomlinson
Pointedly Kebukes Aggressive
ness of Youns Russian.
H. Tanckwich. a youns Russian bar
rister whose extreme aggressiveness hae
gained for him more or less attention, bad
an eventful visit yesterday afternoon to
the office of City Attorney Kavanauch.
Yanckwteh went in the interest of a gang
of Russian workmen who had a grievance
against an employment agent. With
characteristic real he demanded, rather
than requested, a warrant of arrest, and
when reputy City Attorney Tomlinson
suggested that there were two sides to fhe
case, as he had learned after an investi
gation, Tanckwich flew into a rage, say
ing a number of things that could hardly
be printed.
"You can't use that kind of language in
here.' Mr. Tomlinson informed the young
lawyer.
"There are places where any kind of
language ought to go." said Tanckwich.
with another touch of his characteristic
sarcasm.
"No. you've got to behave yourself prop
erly here," Mr. Kavanaugh said when he
was appealed to.
There was a brief tempest, but both
men quieted down. Tanckwich said he
would waive his right to a warrant and
make a settlement on behalf of his clients
for 18 from the employment agent. The
agent said he would write the check and
left the office with the lawyer. But on
reflection the employment office man
changed his mind, decided that he would
rather chance a trial before Judge Cam
eron than pay IIS and so informed Tanck
wich. That young man fairly ran back to the
office of Mr. -Tomlinson, breaking in on
him while the official was talking with
newspaper men regarding a case which
had been tried earlier in the day.
"Your talk up here beat me out of an
other case and I'm cut US on account of
you," exclaimed the barrister profanely,
unceremoniously and without excusing
himself for the intrusion. Mr. Tomlinson
fairly sizzled for a moment in silence:
then he walked up to Tanckwich and
spoke very much to the point.
"I want you to understand, once for all,
that kind of talk doesn't go here. I
won't stand it from you, or any other
man. You've got to behave yourself like
a gentleman when you're In here or I'll
throw you out. I mean that and I hope
it penetrates your understanding. That's
the second and last time you're going to
be told." .
The rapidity with which the Tanckwich
aggressiveness disappeared was a sight to
behold. He didn't apologize, but stam
mered meaninglessly for a solid ten min
utes trying to find an easy place to light.
Then he retreated amiably, saying he
would call later and ask for warrants in
another case wherein employment sharks
are alleged to have bilked unfortunate
workingmen.
