Newspaper Page Text13 THE 310RXIXG OKEGOXIAX. MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 19Q8. E IT, SAYS COUNCIL Aldermen Decline to Share Responsibiltiy for Purify ing North End. SAY THAT HE ACTED ALONE City Father Controvert Keren Vet ter From Executive Pen, Stating Ho Acted With Council in Crusade Against Vice. Members of the City Council do not relish the attempt of Mayor Lane V hare with them the responsibility for hi crusade against the women In the North End. Jn his letter published In The Ore gronlan yesterday. Mayor Lane referred to a petition whlcn, he said, waa pre vented to himself and the Council asking that the social evil In this city be sup pressed end that the bawdy-houses be closed. To this the members of the Council make vigorous exception and declare that the effort to stamp out the restricted district In the North End was assumed by Mayor Lane Individually and on his own responsibility. The Councllmen resent the apparent at tempt on the part of the Mayor to shift the responsibility for the so-cnllcd moral crusade, in part, at hast. to their shoulders. In rejecting this unsought credit the members of the Council refer to the fact that the movement to drive out the fallen women from the city was one of the Mayors initiative, and In which they had no part save to provide the necessary funds for employing addi tional policemen for the enforcement of the cltv ordinances. This, they aver, was done after repeated requests from the Mayor for that assistance. Following his first request for more policemen. Mayor Lane Is charged by the Councilmen with having renewed more speclilcally his ap peal for more patrolmen when the ordi nance making the necessary appropria tion was under conslderalion by that body. Furthermore, the cltys lawmakers Insist that at the time the ordinance pro viding the funds for an Increased police fori waa passed they explained, in voting for the ordinance, that tliey de rllned to assume any responsibility for tlie purposes for which the money and patrolmen were requested. Mayor's Own Crur-ade. This North End crusade is a mattpr Mayor Lane has assumed on IiIb own re sponsibility entirely." said Councilman (Mencfee yesterday, "and In view of the facts the responsibility therefor belongs to the Mayor alone. All the Council had to do with the matter was to pass an ordinance appropriating the funds neces sary to the employment of additional policemen. This was done after repeated requests from the Mayor. As members cf the City Council we did only what was requested of ua by the city's Chief Ex ecutive. Our responsibility ended there." Personally 1 am convinced that the ilayor has made a mistake in Inaugurat ing the crusade he has started." said Councilman Baker. "It certainly will re sult In scattering these unfortunate wo men all over the citr Instead of restrict ing them to the district they oocupled. The real effects of this attempt to drive women of this character from the city will probably not be disclosed for some little time but It will result eventually In respectable women on the streets being subjected to repeated Insults. I was not present at the meeting of the Council when the ordinance was passed appro priating the necessary funds for the ad ditional patrolmen, requested by the Mayor, but had 1 been there I ehould have voted for the ordinance. Intended to Annoy Council. In the first place, the action of the Mayor apparently was Intended to place the Council In a hole for he did not ex pect his request would be granted. But the Council complied with his request and. as the legislative body of the city. Aid it duty. So far as the responsi bility for the pending efforts to rid the city of Its restricted district Is con cerned. It belongs entirely to the Mayor. The responsibility of the Council cer tainly ended when It acceded to the re quest of the Mayor. This attempted puri fication of the city Is of the Mayors Initiative. To him belongs the responsi bility." . . "The weight must be getting heavy on the Mayor's shoulders when he undertakes to share with the Council the responsibil ity for his North End crusade." comment ed Councilman Cellars. "At his request the Council supplied him with additional patrolmen and its responsibility ended there. As to the position of the members of the Council In this matter, there can be no question. Personally. I told the Mayor some time ao that si questioned the expediency of his proposed action and suggested that less extreme measures be adopted for treating with the situation that had been complained of.

Ataerican ship STRIKE WILL NOT AFFECT PORTLAND Threatened Tie-Up cn Gray's Harbor Has No Signifi cance Locally. THIS PORT INDEPENDENT Longshoremen Are t'nder. Two Years' Contract to Work Ships Without Regard to Labor Troubles at Other Cities. Efforts on the part of stevedoring firms on Grays Harbor to establish open shop and the threatened strike on the part of the longshoremen who are mem- bers of the union will have no effect on Portland. Vessels will continue to load and discharge at this port for the next two years regardless of labor conditions and strikes at any other port on the Pacific side. Longshoremen on Grays Harbor threaten to strike and a general cessa tion of business Is looked for today. -The trouble grew out of a demand made on the Grays Harbor Stevedoring Company by members of the union for a closed shop and the employment of none but union men. The company decided not to agree to the demand and will submit a formal reply to the union today. If the men walk out It will tie up all the vessels on Grays Harbor for a short time. The situation is tense and in volves union sailors, union waiters, union firemen and several other brands of union labor. Shipowners and mill owners have taken a stand with the stevedoring company. By the terms of a contract, entered Into between members of the Portland longshoremen and the several stevedor ing firms doing business in Portland, labor troubles in any of the coast ports will not affect the loading or discharging of vessels at this port. The contract entered Into will hold good for a period of two years. The contract was drawn up September 1. hut was not signed until September . The stick tag clause for the union waa the one which forbids liquor ton board ships. During the time the contract was un der discussion the longshoremen held a conclave in Portland, which lasted a week.

YOURSELF OF CATARRH Shake well in a bottle and use in tea spoonful doses after each meal and again at bedtime. Get these ingredi ents from any pharmacist whom you know handles only pure drugs. This prescription acts directly upon the eiimlnative tissues of the kidneys to make them filter and strain from the blood, the poisons that produce all forms of catarrhal affections. Relief is often felt even after the first few doses and it is seldom that the sufferer ever experiences a return attack within a year. This prescription makes a splendid remedy for all forms of blood dis orders and such symptoms as lame back, bladder weaknesses and rheuma tism pains are entirely dispelled. a this valuable, though simple recipe comes from a thoroughly reliable source, it thould be heeded by every reader who suiters from catarrh.
