MOVE TO RECOVER
STREETS FOR CITY
Mayor Instructs Kavanaughto
' Take Action Against In-man-PouIsen
Co.
BIG FIGHT WILL RESULT
Lane Quietly Takes Stpa to Oust
Lumber Mill From Possession
of Six Thorough farts on
Fast Side.
It developed yesterday that Mayor
Lane has officially requested City At
torney Kavanaucrh to begin court pro
reedlnita to take over for the city all
of the streets upon which the plant of
rhe Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company
In located. These are East Harrison,
Kast Lincoln. East Grant. East Sher
man. East Carruthers and Division
streets, from the river line to and In
cluding East Sixth street. That this
will precipitate one of the greatest
leiral battles in the history of Port
land Is predicted by those who are in
clone touch with the situation
Mayor lane evidently did no. wish
to make public the matter at this time,
as he quietly sent a communication to
City Attorney Kavanaufrh last Friday,
In which he asked the city's legal rep
resentative to take up the case and
proceed to secure the streets alleged
by the Mayor to be unlawfully occu
pied. The Mayor did not srlve out for
publication his letter on this occasion,
hut when asked about the matter yes
terday, readily said that he- had asked
Mr. Kavanaugh to take action to re
cover the streets.
Mayor Lane's letter follows:
IrttPT ( City Attorney.
Hon J. P. Kavanaunh. City Attorney,
City D.ar Hir: I ish ut thia lime to call

HABRT LAXB. Mayer.
City Attorney Kavnnaiisrh was averse
to making; anv statement about the case,
ns he said he had not yet been able to
find time to no Into the case sufficiently
to be ablo to tell what course Is best to
pursue. It Is probable that one of two
rourses will be followed, however man
damus proceedlliK or actual ejectment
nf the mill company from the streets In
question. It is a bin question, and one
that will require considerable time and
much caution before final action is taken.
Viewers for Kast Third.
Just why Mayor Lane came to act at
this time is unknown. He has had all of
the facts In his possession for many
months but not until Inst Friday did he
decide to Institute learal proceeding. In
this connection. It U recalled that Coun
cilman Kellaher recently put In a reso
lution to open up East Third street, which
runs through the mill company's prop
erty, and that the company, through
f;eorge S. Shepherd, made strong; objec
tion. It was only last Friday that there
was a heated verbal clash between Mr.
Shepherd and Councllnien Kellaher and
Kushllght over the matter, and the street
committee recommended the appointment
of viewers for the street. This will come
up for final action In Council session to
morrow, when it is anticipated tiiat a
lively skirmish will ensu.
The officers of the mill company con
tend that the streets were never dedi
cated, and will probably make their flftht
upon this ground. As the mill, one of
the largest in the Northwest. Is spread
all over the streets named. It Is certain
the company will contest the city's r'ght
to ths property with all the power at its
command.
MAY CONFER ABOUT BRIDGE
JCniCIVnY COMMITTEE WANTS
EXECUTIVE BOARD'S VLEAVS.
Proposition to Negotiate With Rail
way on Madison-Street Tolls
Opposed by Kellaher. -
Whether it would be advisable for
the city to enter Into negotiations with
the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company in the matter of the proposed
new Madison-street bridge. Is a ques
tion now before the member of the
CounciL It was under consideration
by the Judiciary committee yesterday
afternoon, and was recommended to be
sent to the City Executive Board to
see what Mayor Ian and the members
of that body think of it.
When Councilman Kellaher heard of
the action of the committee, he de
clared himself strictly opposed to it,
saving that he believed the city should
proceed with the construction of the
bridge and let negotiations. It there
are to be any. originate with the street
car company. As the people have Tot
ed bonds for the structure, he said,
and have by their ballots fixed $15,009
a year as the proper toll for the rsll
way company on the new bridge, the
municipality should not wait to see
what is the pleasure of the company in
the premises, says Mr. Kellaher.
Those favoring an amicable arrange
ment. however, believe that It would be
mtse to avoid litigation, and think that
It Is possible for the bridge to be built
and operated without a legal bsttle
between the municipality and the car
company.
Official notice has been served upon
Mayor Lane and tiis other authorities
that the company will not accept the
tondltlons laid dean In the bill which
authorises tlie construction of the
bridge, as the company's officers make
the claim that It Is the duty of the city
to provide means for cars to cross the
river at Madison street for IS years
more at the present rate of II- a
year.
The City Council has already passed
liie ordinance authorising the issuancs
of the bonds and the sale of such sums
as snail be required to furnish suffi
cient money for the work as It pro
gresses. It will be Interesting to see
what the Executive, Hoard does with
the matter. If the recommendation of
the committee on Judiciary Is adopted
by the Council tomorrow, and the Board
has an opportunity to consider the val
uation of thV franchise for the new
structure.
BUYS CHURCH FOR HOME
Danish Aid Society Purchases Cen
tral Methodist Building.
Ths Central Msrthodllst Church, on
Russell and Kerby streets, Alblna, has
been sold to the Portland Danish Aid
Society, the price being above J3000.
ths exact figure not being announced.
Possession of the entire building must
be given by December, but up to that
time the church will occupy the upper
room. The Danish Aid Soclet bought
the property for a permanent home,
and as soon as it comes Into full pos
session will reconstruct the building
so as to meet the requirements of the
organisation. The church Is a two
story structure, and occupies one lot
on the principal street In Alblna, mid
way between Upper and Lower Alblna,
and convenient from, all parts of the
city.
Members of ths Central M. E. Church
are glad to dispose' of the property, as
It will enable them to proceed with
the erection of a modern church qp the
corner of Vancouver avenue and Fargo
street, where a quarter-block was pur
chased for the purpose some time ago.
As the erection of new church build
ing had been contemplated for some
years, the opportunity to dispose of
the Russell-street property was at
once taken advantage of. Temporary
quarters will be secured until a ciurch
can be erected on the new site. The
old church Is ajtoneer building, erect
ed when setlement In Albina was
commencing, by Rev. H. M. Pierce.
HARMONY IN COAST CITIES
Tom Richardson Says Commercial
Bodies Are Working as Unit.
Tom Richardson, manager of the Com
mercial Club returned Sunday from at
tending the TransoMlssissippi Commercial
Congress and the conference of Pacific
Coast Commercial Bodies at San Fran
cisco. He was the guest of honor at
a special dinner given him at Sacramento
by the local Chamber of Commerce and
the business Interests. He says that he
found the Idea of harmony between the
coast commercial bodies stronger than
ever before and believes the meeting
Just held will accomplish much good for
all sections of the Pacific Coast. Every
where he went, too, he found people say
ing good things about this city and the
State of Oregon.
Edmond C. Glltner, secretary of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, returned
Sunday from attending the same gather
ings. He believes that the work of the
San Francisco meeting will be lasting
and that the unity of Pacific Coast com
mercial Interests will accomplish much
good for all sections of the West. He Is
anxious that the work Just begun shall
be continued until the full benefits are
realised.
ATTORNEY'S OPINION ASKED
Kavanaugh Consulted on Sale of
Bull Run Bonds.
The ways and means committee of the
City Council yesterday afternoon refer
red to City Attorney Kavanaugh the mat
ter of how to proceed in the authorization
of the sale of bonds for the second pipe
line to Bull Run. R. B. Lamson. a mem
ber of the Water Board, was present to
discuss the situation with the Council-
men, and said that while the Board had
not definitely decided upon a course of
action. It would probably be safe to au
thorize the sale of J250.000 of the bonds
for the purchase "of ground for reservoirs
and other necessary buildings.
Inasmuch as the undertaking is a large
one. and great caution must be used In
proceeding with the outlay of the money
to be derived from the sale of bands, it
was deemed wise to refer the matter to
City Attorney Kavanaugh for an official
opinion as to the proper course to pursue.
In the meantime, the Water Board will
consider its part of the task and it is
believed that the construction will begin
before very long.

Of by Council.
The ways and means committee oJJ the
Cltv Council yesterday afternoon sold
I19R.000 of Improvement bonds, for which

owners to put money In this kind of an
Investment. The bonds bear interest at
6 per cent and run for from five to eight
years.
Thers was 147.000 In bonds for disposal,
but the committee decided to sell only to
those offering a premium of 2 per cent

THE MOKXIXG OREGOyiAX. TUESDAY. OCTOBER 13, 1908.
TIRES OF HIS ROLE
Protest by Engineer Against
Being Lane's Scapegoat.
TAKES MAYOR TO TASK
City Official Also Hotly Resents
Charges of M. J. Muralne Re
flecting on Honesty of Kis
Department In Street Work.
"Tou take the responsibility and I
take the blame." said City Engineer
Taylor to Mayor Lane at the conclu
sion of a lengthy discussion between
a delegation of residents of Multnomah
Addition, the Mayor and the City En
gineer, held In the executive office
yesterday morning. From this state
ment. It Is evident that Mr. Taylor is
weary of being made a target for all
sorts of charges and accusations; of
being ignored by the Mayor and mem
bers of the Executive Board and of hav
ing his work interfered with uncere
moniously. He resists the action taaen
in the matter of alleged defective side
walks and curbs that have been put In
on a few streets of the East Side.
Msyor Lane apparently has assumed
charge of the office of the City Engi
neer without discharging Mr. Taylor,
as he Issued instructions during the
session yesterday morning that, in fu
ture, samples for analysys shall be
taken from cement barrels on tne
ground. Instead of from the cars, as
heretofore done by Instruction of the
City Engineer. The Council furnishes
only one man to make analysis tests,
whereas there are from 25 to 40 crews
working all over the city, making it
an utter impossibility. It is said, to
make teats from the Jobs.
Makes Charge of Graft
There was a heated colloquy between
Mr. Taylor and M. J. Murnaine, a mem
ber of the delegation and the man who
made the open statement at the last,
meeting of the Multnomah Improve
ment Club that there has been criminal
practlcea in the Improvement work In
the district. He reiterated this de
claration yesterday morning, when Mr.
Taylor replied:
"I remember that you are the man
who made the statement that there
have been criminal practices In that
district relative to the curbs and side
walks, and I want to tell you that you
want to be a trifle careful how you
talk, for personally I don't propose to
stand for much such talk as that. If
you are prepared to charge criminal
practice you will probably be given
an opportunity of trying to prove what
you charge. It's an easy matter to talk,
but to prove things that you say Is
another thing. I am trying to assist
you people over there In locating the
trouble. If I can. but I don't propose to
have any one make slanderous charges
against me."
Attends to Every Complaint.
Mr. Murnaine was very talkative
during the session, and made strong
statements, saying that the work on the
curbs and sidewalks Is ail bad in his
locality. He said that' a big stick
could be run along In the cracks In
sidewalks and curbs in numerous places.
He charged Mr. Taylor with Inatten
tion to business, and said that he had
a list of persons who had complained
In writing about certain work, but had
received "no satisfaction" from Mr.
Taylor, and had to go to the Mayor for
a hearing. This, Mr. Taylor denied,
saying that he gave attention to every
complaint sent In. but not always per
sonally because of the large amount of
business of his office.
' During the discussion. In which the
members of the delegation participated
freely. Mayor Lane left his desk, and
drew from a place of concealment a
long, green stick, to one end of which
was attached a set of heavy bolts. This
Is the wood with which he has been
testing cement curbs and sidewalks.
Mr. Taylor told the Mayor that the best
curb or sidewalk on earth could be
broken with such an Instrument, but
he was contradicted by the Mayor, who
soon after said:
"Well, gentlemen. I tell you; I think
we're a lot of ignoramuses we don't
know anything about cement at an;
never studied It."
LIKENS COUNCIL TO MISER
MAYOR LAXE RELATES TALE
FROM ALMANAC.
Seeks to Make Point That Council
Repents Its Aid to So-called
Moral Crusade.
Mayor Lane yesterday afternoon
compared the City Council to the
miserly communicant In the old almanac
story, who accidentally dropped a 15
gold piece in the contrlbtuion box and
then begged the minister to hand him
back all but one penny, saying he in
tended to place a cent, and no more, in
the collection. According to the story
as told by the Mayor, lie minister re
plied that the miser would get his re
ward in heaven, but that it would
hardly do to return any of the money.
The miser said he supposed he would
get credit for the full J 5, then, but the
minister said that the 1 cent, being the
fuil sum intended for the box, would be
all that could be credited to the miser.
"It's that way with the Council." said
Mayor Lane. "They were all anxious
to assist me. as the Mayor of the city.
In eradicating the social evil. but. now
that I have tried to put Into operation
the plan for Its eradication, the Council
seems to think that Its members put in
too much."
The controversy between Mayor Lane
and the Council over the crusade
against the social evil originated in a
letter issued to the public by the
Mayor and published Sunday morning.
In it the Mayor connected the Council
with the movement, and the following
day several Councilmen. who voted to
give the Mayor necessary assistance,
disclaimed aly Intention of taking part
in the somewhat unpopular affair. While
acknowledging their votes had made
possible the crusade to drive out disor
derly women, they refused to be credit
ed with favoring It.
"There must have been a mistake
somewhere." said Mayor Lane yester
day, when discussing the Interviews of
the Councilmen. "When I first called
the official attention of the Council to
the North End and said that I wished
to try driving out the women there,
the Councilmen said they would give
me all necessary aid; and I deeply ap
preciated their gracious willingness
thus to aid me In this work. Having
carried out their part of the business,
cheerfully and gladly, to assist me.
would it be proper on my part now to
take unto myself the whole credit for
this work? I hardly think so. That
waa way, la setting forth my views on
the subject. I gave the Council its due
share or the credit ior tne muvemc.....
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MOTTO
Dr. Brougher Set Right by Quota
tions From Mrs. Eddy's Book'.
PORTLAND, Oct. 12. (To the Edi
tor.) Dr. Brougher in his sermon
Sunday evening on the subject of the
First Commandment, Quotes a verse
from the fly-leaf of Mrs. Eddy's book,
Science and Health, and states it is the
motto verse of the text book of Chris
tian Science. The students of Chris
tian Science generally understand that
this little quotation of an unknown
author has been used by Mrs. Eddy to
uncover and expose the tendency of
the human mind to deify itself and to
exalt the one God. This verse Is In no
sense the motto verse of the Christian
Science text book.
The sermon of Sunday claims the
philosophy of the Christian Science
text book to assert that "we are God."
In refutation of which we quote as fol
lowss from Science and Health:
"Man Is not God, but like a ray of
light which comes from the sun, man,
the outcome of God, reflects God."
(Page 250.)
"God and man are not the same, but
in the order of divine science, God and
man coexist and are eternal. God is
the parent Mind, and man Is God's
spiritual offspring." (Page 336.)
The attitude of Christian Science re
garding the first commandment is
clearly set forth by Mrs. Eddy on page
340 of Science and Health: "Thou
shalt have no other gods before me.
(Exodus xx.: J.) The first command
ment is my favorite text. It demon
strates Christian Science. It incul
cates the tri-unlty of God, Spirit. Mind;
It signifies that man shall have no
other spirit or mind but God, eternal
good, and that all men shall have one
Mind. The divine principle of the first
commandment bases the Science of be
ing, by which man demonstrates health,
holiness and life eternal. One Infinite
God, good, unifies men and nations; con
stitutes the brotherhood of man; ends
wars; fulfills the Scripture, 'love they
neighbor as thyself;' annihilates pagan
and Christian Idolatry whatever is
wrong In social, civil, criminal, politi
cal and religious codes; equalizes the
sexes; annuls the curse on man. and
leaves nothing that can sin, suffer, be
Dunished or destroyed."
Incontrovertible evidence exists not
onlv in the teaching of the Christian
Science text book, but In the lives of
Its loyal students, to prove that self-
deification has not ' become a principle
of life in the relig.on of Christian
Scientists."
We are lad to have this opportunity
of removing one more mistaken con
ceptlon about Christian science, ana
Dr. Brougher can be happy in knowing
that Christian Science Is eliminating
Just such worshipping of other gods
as he decries.

Cellars Will Oppose Change of
Saloon Ordinance.
SAYS IT IS GOOD MEASURE
Many Councilmen, However, Cons4d-
der Regulation Too Drastic and
i Will Make Fight Tomorrow
for Its Modification.
Councilman Cellars, author of the
celebrated ordinance which prohibits
the sale of liquor to women and for
bids them to enter saloons or restaur
ants where liquor Is served, declared
yesterday that this Is the best law
ever passed by the City Council regu
lating the saloon trade. He said that
he will fight any amendment that is
calculated to destroy its effectiveness.
He also flayed Councilman Baker for
the stand the latter has taken regard
ing the measure. No amendment was
offered to the ordinance at the session
of the liquor-license committee yes-
.et.mnon hut one will be in
troduced before the Counncll meeting
tomorrow.
"The ordinance is a mighty good
. ..u tut- Cellars, defending the
measure which he fathered and which
was passed by the Council at the last
session. "The only amendment needed
is one that will make it possible for
family liquor stores to sell bottled
goods. As it now stands, the family
store cannot sell, but a woman can
walk across the street to a rrocerv
or drugstore and get all the bottled
goods she wants. This should be
changed, and then the ordinance will
be all right."
Cellars Replies to Baker.
t- i;n to Mr. Cellars that
Mr. Baker and others intend offering
an amendment to the measure m
Council session, ana mr. -umi
"I know that Mr. Baker will fight
the law, although he voted for It. Mr.

It would pass, ne voieo. mr i-

to defend it." '
It is expected that the Council will
endeavor to pass on amendment mak
