WORK TO BEDONEPROMPTLY Contractors Will No Longer Be Given Extensions of Time. FINES WILL BE-ASSESSED Street Committee Declares That De lays Will Not Bo Tolerated Hpreafter and Fair Warn ing Is Given. The street committee of the Executive Board, at its meeting yesterday after- BV C. D. NAIRN, AMITV, OB.; FEMALE COLLIE IX SHOW. noon, acted upon a suggestion made by George W. Simons, of the Pacific Bridge & Construction Company, and decided to force contractors on street work to live up to their contracts or be fined, as per agreement. This means the termination on all future contracts, of the exceeding leniency of the committee. Several results are likely, one being that far less bids will be received on street work. The action was taken only after years of hard effort on the part of the street committee and the Executive Board to facilitate street work and to show absolute fairness to contractors; to bear with the latter because of the many features that enter into their work, and to encourage them in finishing improve ments speedily. Owing to the fact that the municipality is not equipped to take charge . of such work, in case of failure by the contractors, it has been impossible for the city to enforce strict compliance with agreements. Contractors Meet Difficulties. Some contractors have taken so much work that they have been unable to de liver any portion of it promptly. Others have met with difficulties, from time to time, which have forced them to seek of the Executive Board repeated, extensions of time on the contracts. This has always been taken up by the street committee, the members of which are R. L. Sabin, Richard Wilson and D. A. Patullo. Mayor Lane being ex-officio chairman. Great patience and pains have been the in variable rule of the committee, and they have never fined any contractor, each time taking the view that nothing would be gained thereby. Mayor Lane has for some time favored levying fines on certain delinquent con tractors, especially the Pacific Bridge Company and Harry Howard. ' This atti tude, however, the members of the com mittee did not uphold, and to date tines have noUJieen levied. Yesterday afternoon, while the members of the street committee of the Executive Board were engaged In the transaction of the routine business incident to their I F il;,mz::7'::r;;; iri"T 'tmwiWc-a t I jr? x- ""'r I T k. - ...j. , -. - , .-. .v.

Simon, manager of the Pacific Bridge & Con struction Company, was among those present, and ho suggested that it would be a good idea for the committee to hold contractors in future to strict compliance with agreements. Too Much Work Causes Delay. "The reason contractors do not com plete the work on time," said Mr. Simons, "is that they take too much work, and can't complete it. If the word should go out from this meeting of your com mittee that, in all future contracts, you mean business, 'and intend to hold con tractors down to the terms of the con tracts, you will not be asked for so many extensions of time." The remarks by Mr. Simons nettled Mr. Sabin, who replied that, for one, he was ready to demand strict compliance with the terms of all contracts in future. He said that, while the committee had been very lenient with contractors all the I while, he nevertheless thought that the members had at all times entered .into agreements in good faith, and said that, if it is the desire of contractors to be dealt with severely, he thought the com mittee was capable of accommodating them. . . Mayor Lane expressed himself as being of the opinion that no further leniency should be shown contractors: that tha time had come when . street work must be completed promptly or fines levied. Mr. Wilson spoke likewise. Mr. Patullo was absent. The committee decided that in future all contractors must finish work in the time specified in the contracts or take the consequences. Must Explain Right to Do Business. The Portland & Suburban Express Com pany, which carries freight over the lines of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company, must explain to the committee on health and police of the City Council what rights it has in its operations. Mayor Lane recently took action, looking toward ascertaining some information in this respect, as it seemed the company had no permit to do business. A com munication was read from the company at yesterday's session of the Council, in which a permit was sought. The matter was referred for consideration. The com pany' has no connection with the rail way corporation. Pioneers May Use Street. The Oregon Pioneer Association was granted permission to use Davis street, between Ninth and Tenth, during- the coming reunion, the Council in special session yesterday afternoon voting to this effect unanimously. A communication, signed by J. D. Lee, president, and George H. Himes, secretary, was read, setting forth the desire of the pioneers, and the Council immediately gave its consent to the use of the street named. East Side Wants Decorations. Councilman Bennett yesterday after noon introduced into the Council, at Its special session, a resolution appropriat ing $500 from the general fund to be used in decorating the streets of the East Side for the Rose Festival. The resolution was referred to the committee on ways and means. BEPIITYCLERKMARSH QUITS KES1GXS FROM FEDERAL COURT AFTER 17 YEARS. Popular Official Leaves to Go Into . Fruit-Growing His Brother v Succeeds Him. G. H. Marsh, who for over 17 years has been Deputy Clerk of the United States Court, has resigned and will become a farmer. Mr. Marsh will be succeeded by his brother, J. N. Marsh, who has been employed In several local banks and has done newspaper work. The resignation of Mr. Marsh, after so many years of faithful service, will be a surprise to his many friends of the bench and bar of the state.' From the time that he first entered the office until his departure he has been exceedingly popular. Always obliging and courteous to the host of people who have business in the office of the United States Clerk, Mr. Marsh has made many friends who will wish him great success In his new -work. Mr. JMarsh has a large apple or chard under cultivation near Underwood, just across the river from Hood River. '1 don't know how I will make it as a farmer," he said yesterday, "but I do know that I have had enough office work. If I had remained in the office until June, I would have been In the office . 1754 years." Asks $7500 for Brother's Death. A jury in Judge Wolverton's court be gan hearing the evidence yesterday in a damage suit brought by a brother of Michael Welsh, who was killed while em ployed by the Barber Asphalt Company, at the foot of Randolph street. The brothers, through Attorney Henry E. Mc Ginn, are seeking to recover damages to the extent of $7500 from the Asphalt Com pany. After the jury had been selected, the members were taken to the asphalt plant and investigated the machinery in which Welsh was caught and flayed to death. Several witnesses testified that when the hoisting machinery was stopped and Welsh had been released, every shred of clothing had been torn off. McCourt May Call Grand Jury. United States Attorney John Mc Court is contemplating asking for an other Federal grand jury, so that a number of criminal cases which have come up since the adjournment of the last grand jury may be disposed of. The Jury will begin lbs grind some time in May, and in addition to hear- ing evidence in a number of minor criminal cases, there will also be an Investigation Into some land-fraud cases that have been hanging Are. Among the cases that will be heard will be that of J. Williams, now out on $1500 -ball, who is charged .with opium smuggling. The counterfeiting charge made against Steve Ramsey, alias Norls II. Byron, who has been held under $3000 bail, will also be given a hearing. ThPre are also sev eral cases against postmasters and one against Mrs. Nellie Bauer-Ragan, as sistant postmistress of Roystcn. Postal Business Increases. Owing to the serious illness of his mother, C. A. Straus, financial clerk of the Postoffice, will not be able to prepare his monthly statement of the business done at the Postoffice. Postmaster Minto, however, is confident that the month of April, 1908, will show a 20 per cent gain over the corresponding month of 1907. BOURNE HAS BIG FIGHT. ON HANDS Attempt to Control State Con vention Seems Doomed to Failure. LUCKY IF MADE DELEGATE Doubt asjo Where Multnomah Dele gation ' Stands, Aside From Friendship for H. M. Cake. His Wishes May Govern. It is obvious that the attempt of Jonathan Bourne, Jr., to control tle Re- :.::y::: iiiiill ENGLISH SETTER, HALLWYD BEAN, OWNED BY V. A. KUAHN, SAW FRANCISCO WINNER OF CUP FOR BEST SETTER DOti IN SHOW. publican State and Congressional Con ventions May 14, and dictate the selec tion of delegates to the National con vention, will be contested vigorously. Senator Bourne for some time has been working with a view of sending an un lnstructed delegation to the Chicago convention from this state, but the anti-Bourne Republicans declare they have an organization that will not only defeat the Senator's plans In that par ticular direction, but -will prevent his selection as one of the delegates if he. becomes too insistent in demanding the privilege of dictating the Oregon dele gation. Of the eight delegates, four are to be named by the state conven tion and two each by the Congressional conventions of the First and Second Districts, w;hlch will meet simultane ously with the state convention In Portland May 14. The state convention will consist of 239 delegates and of that number Mult nomah County's 47 representatives not being included, the anti-Bourne people claim a total of 115 delegates. The opponents of Senator Bourne assert that they have the assurance of full delegations from 16 of the 33 counties of the state, representing a total of 101 delegates, as follows: Benton, 5; Clatsop, ' 7; Douglas, 9; Gilliam, 3; Grant, 4; Josephine, 5; Klamath, 4; Lake, 3; Lane, 12; Marlon, 13; Polk, 6; Sherman, 3; Wasco, 8; Washington, 8; Wheeler, 3: Yamhill, 8. To these should be added seven each of the eight delegates that will be selected In Jackson and Union Counties, and which are claimed by the anti-Bourne contingent. This total of 115 undoubtedly will be increased sufficiently by the Linn County delegation of nine members, a part of which will be opposed to Bourne and his tactics, to give the enemies of Bourne the control of the state convention- This condition may result not only in the failure of the convention to send an unlnstructed Bourne delegation, but it is within the range of possibilities that a delegation will be named with instructions to work for the nomination of Secretary Taft for the Presidency. At any rate. It Is apparent that the state conven tion will not accept the slate that Bourne, has prepared, and it is alto gether a question whether or not Bourne will be included among the four delegates that are to be named by the state convention. The attitude of the Multnomah County delegation of 47 members as to Bourne Is a disputed- question. Primarily they are friends of H. M. Cake, Republican candidate for Senator. A majority of them, it Is understood, will be governed altogether by the wishes of Cake In any action that will redound to the 'advan tage of the Republican Senatorial candi date. That loyalty may extend to the Indorsement of Bourne as a delegate to the Chicago convention, but It does not Involve the support by the delegation or a majority of it of the proposed Bourne unlnstructed delegation. These delegates may be induced to accept Bourne as one of the delegates, but they will rebel. It is said, If any attempt is made to force them to swallow the Bourne slate. Bourne's strength In the Multnomah County central committee is not Hercu lean by any means, as may be deduced from the election of six delegates-at-large at the meeting of the committee Wednesday night. By direction of the executive committee Chairman Kennedy was authorized to appoint six delegates to the state convention. But Chairman Kennedy did not care to assume the role of dictator, and when he had announced his selections, invited further nomina tions. The names of other prominent Republicans were suggested and a bal lot was taken, with the result that George H. Williams and T. M. Dunne, two of the candidates nominated from the body of the committee, were elected, defeating George M. Orton and Thomas McCusker, who had been named by the chairman of the committee. McCusker is one of Bourne's principal lieutenants. Friends of Secretary Taft in Oregon have not yet made any organized effort in the interest of his candidacy, but it is understood that a systematic campaign has been outlined In his behalf. This campaign will bo Inaugurated in a few days, when Taft headquarters will be' established in this city. In this way Taft's friends expect to assemble in the state convention sufficient support to in sure sending an instructed Taft delega tion to the National convention. Concert for Seamen. There will be a concert at the Institute of the Portland Seamen's Friend Society tonight. The programme, is in-charge of Miss Lottie Hampton and- the Hassalo Street Church, and some good numbers will be given. The concert begins at 8 o'clock and all friends of the society and sailors are invited free. BANK WILL INCORPORATE Details Being Worked Out and Will Be Announced Soon. , ' Edward Cookingham. of Ladd 4 Tllton, last nigbt confirmed the report that the banking, firm Is to incorporate as a state bank. The details of the future plans of the institution are in process of be ing worked out and will be completed in a' few days. Mr. Cookingham said that until these plans were fully con sidered and agreed upon he did not think it advisable to announce partial information on the subject, though, he added, there is nothing with reference to the proposed change with which the publicNs not to be fully informed about. He said the name of the corporation would be chosen at the same time the other details are determined. The bank of Ladd & Tilton was opened for business in April, 1SS9, and in 1861 the L capital was increased to $150,000 and a few years arterward was Drougnt up 10 J1,000,000. When the partnership existing between the originators of the bank was dissolved, in 1880, the business was con tinued by the sons of W. S. Ladd under the same firm name. In' recent an nouncements the owners of the institu- 1 ? - -k,- "tv -V . ' .fc , . . . tion are given as William M. Ladd, Charles E. Ladd and J. Wesley Ladd, and the amount of responsibility placed at $6,000,000. The banking house is at the southwest corner of First and Stark streets, and recently It was found nec essary to terminate the leases of tenant on the second floor in order to enlarge the quarters of the bank. W. M. CAKEpENIES DEAL Says He Made Xo Concession to Se cure Election. W. M. Cake, chairman of the Republi can State Central Committee, yesterday vigorously denied that his selection as state chairman was secured in considera tion of any 'sacrifice on his part. He de clared that the office came to him with out solicitation and that the adoption of the Taft resolution had nothing what ever to do with his election as chairman, Mr. Cake Insists that the election of him self as chairman was not in considera tion of his acceptance of the resolution directing the state convention to name a delegation to the Chicago convention favorable to the Secretary of War for f resident. The information that Mr. Cake agreed to the adoption of the resolution indors ing Taft as a candidate for President in consideration of his election as state chairman came from members of the committee.
