ELECTION JUDGES
Question of Annexation Will
Complicate the Balloting
in Several Precincts.
SEPARATE BOXES REQUIRED
BufiMlvllle, "Woodstock, Anabel,
South Mount Tabor and Part of
Arleta May Vote to Come
Into the City.
Voters in three Portland suburbs are to
vote on. the annexation question. Sepa
rate ballot boxes have been provided by
County Clerk Fields for the precincts In
volved. In Precinct 92, the special ballot
ing will be almost a burden, for four
boxes have been provided. This portion
of the precinct is the southeast quarter
of section 21. One ballot box, the large
one. Is for the general ballots, one Is for
the district ballots and two boxes are for
annexation ballots.
Two divisions of the county, in which
the annexation question arises, Include
this portion of Precinct 92. Citizens of
this portion of the precinct will, there
fore, say whether they want to be an
nexed in conjunction with Precincts 73
and BOi, or with a portion of Precinct
9 Hussellville. The other portion of the
county in which the annevation question
is to be voted on Includes Precincts M,
Woodstock; 95, Anabel; 96, South Mount
Tabor; 97, and portion of Arleta.
Though one precinct should vote for
annexation this would not bring the ter
ritory into the City of Portland. The
vote on each division involved will de
cide the question.
Voters Should Study Ballot.
Mr. Fields recommends that every voter
in th county obtain a sample ballot, and
study It before election day. He said yes
terday that if this is not done much time
will be spent by the electors at the polls
next Monday, as the balloting will be very
slow.

for a few changes which have been made

WARM CAMPAIGN IS WAGED
Both Sides Claim Victory on Ques
tion of Annexation.
The Mount Scott Annexation Club will
hold Its final meeting tonight In the hall
at Nashville. Several speakers will ad
dress the people. Including; Walter
Thomas Mills. With the near approach
of election the fltrht for and against an
nexation In this district Is becoming In
tense. The annexation boosters are
working nfjcht and day. Annexation Is
the topic discussed in the homes and
places of business between Anabel and
Grays Crossing. The anti-annexation
forces also are busy. They are not hold
ing public meetings, but they are, but
tonholing every one who has a vote.
Considerable feeling has been projected
into the campaign.
Annexationists claim they will win by
a majority ranging from BO to 100. while
the opponents have figured out that they
will win by an even larger margin. The
water supply, taxation, school affairs
and possible increased expenses are
among the questions that are being dis
cussed. In the territory along the eastern side
of Montavilla, where a vote on annexa
tion will be held next Monday, strong
opposition has also developed. There 1s
no doubt but annextion in Rose City
Park will carry. A vote will be taken
In that territory because the vote last
year was Illegal.
ISfiRCHITECT'S LIES VALID?
POINT AT ISSUE IX SUIT, IX THE
CIRCUIT COURT.
Action Brought by A. J. Capron Re
lates to Building Erected for S.
V. Davidor In St. John.
Whether or not an architect can hold
a valid lien upon property for which he
has made drawings, is the question
which Judge Cleland has under consid
eration in the suit of Albert J. Capron
against himself, Matilda Light, P. H.
Light. C. Goodrich, F. Losch and S. V.
Davidor. The case was submitted to
the court yesterday and will be decided
at 9:30 Saturday morning. The suit
was brought to foreclose a mechanics'
lien for 286.
The building In question is located at
St. John. It appeared from the testi
mony given in court that Davidor
leased the ground floor of the building
with the intention of putting in a bank.
The money stringency of last Fall came
on, and about that tlme'C. Goodrich, the
contractor, fell behind In the construc
tion work. Light is said to have dis
charged Goodrich, but it is also as
serted that the latter appeared on the
premises at intervals. Then Light had
Goodrich arrested for trespass, but
nothing came of it. Light then went
to Davidor, It appears, and negotiated
for tho purchase of the latter's lease.
After this no more trouble with Good
rich was experienced.
This is the second suit brought into
the Circuit Court recently over this
same building. The other suit was
brought by Losch against Davidor to
recover $777.42 damages and costs for
the material and labor furnished by
Losch in the construction of a bank
vault for Davidor. It was alleged that
Davidor refused payment. When the
case came to trial neither Losch nor
his attorney appeared, and the court
dismissed the suit, awarding Davidor
his costs.
BRINGS SUIT FOR INJUNCTION
C. B. AVebb Demands That Factory
Agents Cease Crossing His Land.
Judge Bronaugh in the Circuit Court,
listened yesterday to testimony in th
suit of C. B. Webb against the Doern
becher Manufacturing Company. Webb
is seeking an injunction restraining the
manufacturing company from trespas
sing on his premises, or breaking down
his fences. He asserts that he is the
owner of block 4, York addition to
Portland, at the intersection of the O.
R. & N. railway track with East 28th
street. The company, it is asserted, has
been using his property as a roadway
for a year. Webb said yesterday that
he is endeavoring to improve the prop
erty but that the company tears down
his fences.
The members of the firm allege that
when they purchased their property,
adjoining that of Webb, they also pur
chased a right of way over his land.
The plot upon which the Doernbecher
plant stands was purchased from the
Hawthorne estate. The case was con
tinued until this morning.
Gets Judgment for Commission.
W. O. N. Morrison was awarded
(468.50 damages by Judge O'Day, of the
Circuit Court, yesterday afternoon in
his suit against E. E. Miller. Morrison
brought suit to recover 9S7.B0. He as
serted yesterday that In December, 1906,
Miller was the agent for property In
Cowlitz county, Washington, valued at
$37,500, and belonging to. a Mr. Muckle.
Miller employed Morrison, according to
the latter's testimony, to find a pur
chaser. Morrison -brought buyer and
seller together, and Miller received
$1875 commission. He refused, how
ever, to pay Morrison for his services.
Miller testified that the $1875 commis
sion belonged to E. Turney, MiBS L. E.
Haymore and himself, doing business as
the City Realty & Building Company.

Ii. M. Vinberg's Overzealous Efforts
to Secure Patrons for North End
Pawnshop Result In a
Charge of Vagrancy.
Any woman who looks back repeatedly

flirting as the man in her wake. This
Is the effect of a finding made yester
day forenoon by Municipal Judge Cam
eron in passsing on the case of a young
married woman who caused the arrest of
a Greek dandy, under the mashing law.
It doesn t matter either what her mo
tive may be in looking back. In this
particular case the woman said she
h.wea "Vt to sc lf th8 man wa
from ii. I Was tryln8r to Bet awav
from him. she said, but In the light of
the testimony adduced, the Court found
that the woman showed entirely too
much curiosity regarding the movements
of her pursuer.
Mrs Edna Mormur, residing In Aiblna.
was the complaining witness In the case
and Gas Stamatis, a salesman, ap
peared In the role of masher. The case
was before the court on Tuesday, but
was settled yesterday.
Mrs. Mormur appeared very Indignant
at the attempts to Stamatis to make her
acquaintance. She said that on Monday
night she was down town late and start
ed homeward. She went to Third and
Oak streets for a car, but as no car was
in sight, walked on down Oak past the
police station to Second.
Shortly after leaving Oak and Third
she became conscious of the fact that a
dudlsh-appearing young fellow was fol
lowing close behind her. When she
stopped at Second and Oak the fellow
stopped likewise, and as Bhe decided to
stroll north on Second while awaiting
one of the perennially belated streetcars,
the man moved in the same direction.
Walking to Pine. Mrs. Mormur looked
back and her pursuer was close behind.
She maneuvered around the block and
he did the same thing. Her own shadow
could not have been more constant. Los
ing patience, she called a policeman and
had the fellow arrested. It was Sta
matis. That Individual u
- 1 l wwij w I c itujis
as set forth, but had his own peculiar
version oi tne airair. Mrs. Mormur
looked at him most invitingly In 'pass
ing him on the street, he said, and when
he walked along behind her thinking she
might be lonesome, she looked back re
peatedly. That appealed to him as being
marked encouragement, and when she in
vaded the risque territory north of the
police station he said he felt sure she
was not one whose finer sensibilities
would be wounded by his unseemly con
duct In following her.
While affirming that he has fib pa
tience with the flirt variety of human
beings, the Court held that Stamatis

the belief that Mrs. Mormur was as will
ing as no 10 orusn up an acquaintance.
Accordingly the masher was given his
high Indignation.
Pawnbroklng methods in North Port
land are reaching a fine pass.
Complaints of people who are literally
forced inside one of these places have
been heard for months past, but a new
variety of business enterprise came to
light yesterday, when L.. M. Vinberg,
salesman and assistant at the London
Loan Office, was tried In the Municipal
Court on a charge of vagrancy.
The charge of vagrancy was placed
against Vinberg by Deputy City Attorney
Tomlinson. because no other , charge
would fit Vinberg's misconduct, and while
vagrancy was hardly suited, the prose
cutor, with characteristic seal, fought
for a conviction under that law. rather
than see a man of Vinberg's stripe go
unpunished. a
It was shown by the testimony that
Vinberg works out in the street. When
someone happens along who does not
appear to have much firmness or ag
gressiveness but a little money, it is
Vinberg's duty to Inveigle him into the
store. One of Vinberg's victims was
looking in a window when Vinberg
stepped up to admire a heavy band ring
the man was wearing.
"What did you pay for itr Vinberg
asked.
"I got it at a bargain for J9," was the
reply.
"That sounds pretty steep let me
look at it, if you don't mind I'm a great
fancier of rings," was Vinberg's next re
mark. The unwary stranger did as requested.
Vinberg reported that the ring did not
seem worth much and asked the man
to step Into "the store." Here he exam
ined it with a glass, turned it over in
his hand a few times, and, taking a tag
from a drawer, wrote, "charges $1.25."
The astounded victim wanted to know
what the charges were for and Vinberg
told him it was for making an expert
examination of the ring. . The fellow
protested, but ended by paying the
amount In order to secure the return of
his ring.
Another man had a tin watch he
bought for 12. Vinberg got talking with
him and asked to see the watch. He
6aid It was a fine watch, but didn't seem
to be keeping good time. The stranger
admitted as much. Vinberg took the
watch Inside, took the works out. tam
pered with it, gave it to a second man
for examination and then put a charge
tag on the watch calling for $3.75. And
having the gift of gab, he talked the
weak-spirited victim into paying $1.75
more than the watch was worth for fan
cied repairs.
Those are two characteristic examples
of his art. Mr. Tomlinson insisted that
since Vinberg was not engaged Jn lawful
occupation he could have ho visible
means of support and therefore that he
must "be guilty of vagrancy. Vinberg had
a wordy lawyer to dispute this and offer
voluminous authority. Judge Cameron
said he would take the case under ad
visement. John Shultz' business seal nearly re
sulted fatally yesterday morning.
Following out a much-used plan, which
peddlers have for besting wholesale mer
chants, he operated at the Davenport
Thompson produce house yesterday
morning and was literacy kicked out
into the street by Robert West, an em
ploye. Shulti struck against a metal
contrivance while falling and only the
substantial thickness of his skull warded
off possibility of serious consequences.
Shultz had West arrested for assault
and the case was heard at once by Judge
Cameron. Shultz told of the assault and
even declared the produce employe hit
him in the head with a sledgehammer.
West explained the reasons for. the as
sault. He said Shultz. following a com
mon practice, bought several bunches

to the scales for wleghing, broke off
from six to a dozen on the pretext that
they were too green. After the bananas
had been weighed the enterprising ven
dor would appropriate the "green" ba
nanas without the formality of paying
for them. West had a dozen of bananas
which Shultz broke off in court and they
were anything but green.
"I told him to quit that kind of busi
ness, but he kept it up until I kicked him
out," said West.
As the charge of assault had been
clearly established, no matter what the
provocation, the court imposed a small
fine. The evidence was assimilated by
court attaches with a little assistance
from the court, after the regular session,
and all voted that it was anything but
green.
