PASS ON LOCAL
OPTION PETITIONS
County Court Will Decide To
day Important Point in
Oregon Law.
OPPOSING LAWYERS HEARD
Question at Issue Affects Legality ol
Second Election Less Than Two
Years After the Precinct
Has Voted Dry.
The County Court will decide at 10
o'clock this morning which petitions for
local option In Multnomah County aro
valid and which are worthless. All dify
yesterday Judge Webster and CommiS'
loners Lightner and Barnes sat en banc
listening to the arguments of John F.
Ixgan and Ralph E. Moody, counsel for
. the liquor Interests, and Frank B. Ruier
ford for the Prohibitionists. It was the
contention of Mr. Rutherford that terri
tory voted dry can be combined with wet
territory at a succeeding election. Mr,
Logan replied that if such is the case
the local option law Is only prohibition In
disguise.
The precincts included in each of the
13 petitions for a vote on the saloon ques
tion, in the order in which these petitions
were filed with County Clerk Fields and
showing the grouping are as follows:
No. 1. Precinct 8.
No. 2. Precinct 60.
N. Z. Precincts 100 and 101.
No. 4. Precinct 101.
No. 6. Precincts 101 and 108.
N. 6. All of East Portland except pre
cinct 1.
No. 7. Precincts 89. 90 and 91.
No. 8. Precincts 62, 62, 63, 69, 71, 72,
VI. 76, 7b, 77, 78, 79.
No. 9. Precincts 90 and 91.
No. 10. Precincts 42, 43, 44, 48, 47.
No. 11. Peclnct 67.
No. 12. Precincts 90 and 91.
No. 13. Precincts 99 and 102.
Mr. Rutherford, for the Prohibitionists,
appeared in favor or Petitions 6. 9 and 12.
He opposed the others. Mr. Moody
favored Petition No. S, but opposed 6, 9
ana iz, while Mr. Logan favored No. 10.
and opposed the three petitions fathered
By tne Prohibitionists.
Contention of Prohibitionists.
In order that Mr. Rutherford might
make more clear his contention as to the
provisions of the Oregon local option law,
the Court asked him to illustrate it by
taking Precincts A, B, C, D and B as
examples. Mr. Rutherford said that the
law provides first that a vote may be
taken, upon petition, in Precincts A, B,
C and D, combined, pr on any other
number. No vote can be again taken on
this combination of precincts for two
years, unless the first election should re
suit In a vote to retain the saloons. In
. that event the local option Question could
come up" at the election of the following
year, nut, contended Mr. Rutherford, if
Precincts A, B, C and D were combined
with Precinct E a vote could be taken
the following year. The petition cover
ing all the East Side, with the exception
of Precinct 61, would be adequately Illus-
iraiea Dy taxing Precincts B. C and r.
eliminating A and adding E. This Is the
knotty question upon which the County
oun must pass.
Regarding Petition No. 2, for Precinct
60, Attorney General Crawford has said
that a vote may be taken this year. Dis
trict Attorney Manning disagrees with
him, and says a vote may not be taken
this year. Mr. Rutherford contends that
the petition is Invalid because it Includes
less territory than was voted on in 1906.
No one appeared In court to father the
petition.
Mr. Moody said that under the provi
sions of the Oregon statute, the liquor
question cannot be submitted to the voters
ot a precinct which has gone dry In less
than two years after the first vote is
taken. The only exception to this rule,
he 'contended, was when a valid petition
had been filed to have the vote taken in
the entire county.
Quotes From the Law.
He pointed to Section 14, of the statute,
reading as follows:
In no case where prohibition has carried
In my subdivision of any county shall an
election on this question of prohibition be
held thereafter in any precinct of such
subdivision until prohibition has been de
feated at a subsequent election held for
such entire subdivision.
Commenting on this section, Mr. Moody
said that no vote can be taken on the
East Side as a whole until It Is ail sa
loon territory, when it may be Included
In one petition. He contended that in
excluding Precinct 61 the East Side peti
tion violated this act.
Attorney Logan said. In arguing upon the
question:
If It Is true that precincts already voted
dry may be combined with others that are
wet, thereby making the larger territory
wet. It will be possible to run a shoestring
of precincts through the counitv. over
whelming certain wet precincts with others
that are known to be heavily the other
way Take Precinct 8D. That Is University
Park, a portion of Portland, where every
lot Is sold with a prohibition clause In the
deed. They Join Precinct 89 with 00 and
91, comprising the ctiy of St. John, to ret
prohibition in St. John. They have a right
to do that, and I am not complaining
about It. but the court can see the identity
of It. What becomes of the spirit of the
local option law? This Is nothing but pro
hibition, disguised as local option. '

OTHER CLEW THAN SHIRT
Writer Wants New Investigation in
Wolff Murder Case.
PORTLAND, May 7. (To the Editor.)
The Oregonlan cannot be given too much
praise for its fine editorial on the Wolff
murder case, which appears in today's
Issue. Its broad and conservative view of
the incident should open the eyes of both
the police and detective departments. Is
It not true that all stores have hundreds
of shirts of the same patterns, fabric,
marks and sizes, and could not hundreds
of people buy them? Is it possible that
Ev H. Martin could have left the scene
of the murder, in broad daylight, with his
shirt, coat, vest and overcoat soaked and
spattered with blood, with bleeding
wounds on his neck, head and hands
travel over tho street at the busiest hour
of the day to discard the bloody shirt in
one end of the city, and secret his over
coat and gun In the extreme other end?
Perhaps the individual who wore the
bloody shirt (if other than Martin) is
many miles away now, or perhaps know
ing the crime Is fastened on another than
himself, might be leisurely roaming bout
town. Who knows hut what Martin,
while under the influence of drugs,
may have had. trouble with another
"fiend" or in a drunken brawl received
a beating? When in a stupor somewhere,
the real murderer could have besmeared
his clothes with blood In order to fasten
the crime on Martin.
It was reported that one man was seen
who acted as a guard in front of Wolffs
store, In a blinding rain storm, with no
overcoat or umbrella, at the hour the
crime was supposed to have been com
mitted. Why not look for that fellow?
The promptness with which a man In
Martin's predicament answers all ques
tions put to him, throws one in doubt.
The case Is similar to one which oc
curred some years ago In Indiana, when.
a young woman wag butchered. A short
time before finding the body, two drunken
laborers had a rough encounter In which
one was bad,ly bruised and bleeding, and
was seen in the neighborhood with blood
stained clothes. He was Immediately ar
rested, the town turned against him, was
found guilty and hanged In less than four
months. Seven years after, a tramp on
his deathbed confessed to the crime.
I think it would be well If the detectives
and police would follow some advice from
The Oregonlan: "Look at two sides." I
don't wish to defend a brutal murderer.
but when the police refuse to work on
any other clew than a shirt which anyone
mignt nave discarded, it seems they are
all bewildered toy the dazzling splendor
of the $1000 reward. Any old thing will
do. F. JOHNSON.
EXCURSION T0H00D RIVER
Portland Realty Board and Guests
Take Outing Tomorrow.
Arrangements have been completed for
the Realty Board's excursion to Hood
River tomorrow. The realty men and
their guests will leave the dock at the
foot of Washington street on the steamer
Charles R. Spencer, which will leave
promptly at 7 A. M.
Upon arrival at Hood River, commit
tees are to meet the excursionists and
escort them through the valley. Infor
mation has been received that the apple
trees are now in full bloom and that the
scene from elevated places affording
views of the famous fruit section is
beautiful.
Included in the cost of the trln. which
Is placed at $3.50 a person, are lunch and
dinner on the steamer. Short speeches
are to oe made by representatives of the
Hood River fruitgrowers and by mem
bers of the Realty Board. Whitney L.
Boise and Tom Richardson are expected
to be members of the party making the
trip, and will be called upon to tell the
Hood River people something about the
advantages to be gained through organi
zation of allied interests, as Is evidenced
by the Realty Board of this city.
A band of music Is to accompany the
excursion and Secretary Rountree ex
pressed himself yesterday as being confi
dent the trip will be both enjoyable and
instructive. Several local dealers said
yesterday that the result of the excur
sion more than, likely would be to effect
closer business relations between dealers
of the. two points.
Thiel's Cashier Arrested.
W. E. Douglas, cashier of the local office
of the Thlel Detective Agency, fpr whom
a warrant was issued Wednesday night,
was arrested yesterday morning. The

CANCELS OREGON GAMES
Multnomah Not Able to Play Uni
versity at Kugcne.
The proposed trip of the Multnomah!
baseball club to Eugene has been called
off. The clubmen were scheduled to play
two games with the University of Ore
gon at Eugene on May 8 and 9, but it
was found impossible for the players to
make the trip, so the games were can
celed. The University team will come
to Portland and meet the Multnomah
nine on the club grounds on Decoration
day. They will also play here the Mon
day following. It is reported that some
radical changes will be made in the club
line-up in the near future and the team
thereby greatly strengthened.
A challenge has been received from the
Victoria. B. C, Athletic Club for a game
there on Dominion day, and if it is pos
sible to get the players off for so ling a
time, this challenge will be accepted. A
challenge has also been received from
the Aberdeen team.
