TEACHERS TO GET
BIGGER
SALARIES
By Majority Vote of Board
Compromise Advance m
Is Adopted.
SOME TEACHERS GET MORE
Instructors Who Akerl for Raise of
30 Per Cent Are Recommended
for Inrreartte Amounting to
About 15 Per Cent.
Teachers In the public schools of
Portland presented to the Foard of
Education some weeks aao. through a
committee, a request was made that sal
arlee be Increased ! per cent straight
through the existing schedule. This re
quest was taken up by the committee on
salaries last week, a compromise schedule
was presented and adopted by a majority
vote, the president of the board. Her
man Wittenberg, alone voting against
an Increase.
Tn advocating the advance, argu
ments were presented and figures
shown Indicating that Portland stood
below any of the Coast cities In the
matter of teachers" salaries, with the
result that the best teachers coming
to this part of the country to seek
positions po to Los Angeles. San Fran
cisco. Oakland, or to Seattle or Spokane,
where salaries are higher than here.
For this reason Portland has been de
prived of the services of some experi
enced tutors, and besides. It was alleged
br one of the directors, some of the
I experienced teachers already In posl
f Hons, In this city had announced their
LI intention to resign and accept better
paid positions eisewnere ir roruino um
r.nt see fit to advance salaries to corre
spond with those paid along the Coast
In cities of similar Importance.
Better Schoolhousea Wanted.
An argument was raised by oppo
nenta to the advance that more and bet
ter srhool-houses were of more urgent
necessity than to use additional funds
In paying teachers. This stand was an
swered by an advocate or tne increase
in the words. "I would rather nave
child of mine receive the benefit of
good teacher's training in a barn than
to be badly or carelessly taught in the
finest building that could be erected.
All agreed that better school-houses
are required In Portland, but tne aavo
rates of the increase said that both bet
ter buildings and the best teachers
inhtalnable are enually of Importance,
fend that the slightly Increased taxation
vmniH h vllltnfflv met by the people
I of the city, especially as it meant bene
fit to the children of the community.
The" teachers" committee also request
ed, that salaries, with the 10 per cent
Increase, should be paid monthly for IS
months of the year. The board decided
on an advance approximately of 15 per
rent, and by vote decided that salaries
hall be paid monthly for 1 months as
heretofore, thus giving teachers Immed
iate use of the increased salaries rather
than have it spresd over a calendar year.
The matter of the-proposed Increase will
rome up at a meeting on the night of
December 3. and it is believed by mem
bers of the board that opponents of any
Increase at all and some who favor a
larger increase will have representatives
present on that occasion to advocate their
respective contentions.
Tables were made part of the report
to the board by the committee, with an
explanation that it was deemed advis
able, after due consideration, to so ad
Just the schedule that teachers longest
Jn the service and necessarily pos
sessed of the most experience In local
schools shall have a higher percentage
of the advance than those who have
been in the department for less time.
It was said in advocating the adoption
of the schedule as prepared that It is
based on commercial and professional
usages an experienced employe In a
mercantile house, for example, or an ex
perienced attorney or physician, com
manding better salaries than novices
or newcomers. If the subjoined sched
ule Is favorably voted on at the tax
payers meeting. Its provisions will go
into effect at once. The increase pro
posed adds 4-10 mill to the tax rate.
These are the changes favored by the
board:

date both the electric and telegraph wires
on that thoroughfare.
The erection of new and Improved poles
on Alder street ordinarily would not have
attracted any particular attention but In
view of the agitation by members of the
Cltv Council for legislation requiring that
all electric and telephone wires be placed
underground the activity of the electric
company on Alder street naturally ar
rested the attention of pedestrians, in
response to an inquiry. B. S. Josselyn.
president of the Portland Railway, Ijght
A Power Company, explained that the
pending Improvement would be made on
the one street only. The company, he
said, had no intention of extending this
character of improvement to any of the
other streets of the city at this time.

Th cost of Interments has been

Heretofore it has been the custom
of funeral directors to mako charges
for all inciaentaia connn-im witn a
funeral. The Edward Holman Under
taking Company, the leading funeral
directors of Portland, have departed
from that custom. When casket is fur
nished by us we make no extra charges
for embalming, hearse to cemetery,
outside box or any services that may
be required of us, except clothing,
cemetery and carriages, thus effecting
a raving of $?J to $7i on each funeral.

Unless City Renews Contract,
Power Company Is Expect
ed to Shut Off Lights.
AGREEMENT IS HOPED FOR
Lighting Committee of Council Will
Tonight Consider Situation,
Which Was Brought on by
Pruning: of Bills.
Unless the City Council through Uie Ex
ecutive Board readies an understanding
with fhe Portland Railway. Ught &
Power Company before midnight Thurs
day, December 31, the management of
the electric light corporation may shut
off all lights now supplied the city for
lighting Its streets and public 'buildings.
The contract under whii'h this service Is
being furnished expires December 31, and
because of the hostile attitude of the
Executive Board toward the light com
pany there is said to be a disposition on
Uie part of the latter to terminate Its
lighting service for the city promptly on
the expiration of its contract. It is be
cause of the seriousness of the situation
that the lighting committee of the City
Council will hold a special meeting to-
Oight that some solution to the trouble
may be reached.
B. S. Josselyn, president of the electric
light company, would not discuss the
subject yesterday. He refused to Inti
mate what would be the course or his
company in event of the failure of the
city to renew its contract or make some
arrangement for lighting service. The
Council committee on lighting expects to
make its report and recommendations to
the Council at its meeting v ednesday.
At that time the Council will report the
matter, back to the Executive Board,
which meets Friday afternoon. The elec
tric light people will not issue any state
ment until after the Executive, isoard
has finally declared itself.
New Lamps started Controversy.
The trouble between the Portland Rail
way. Light & Power Company and the
Executive Board had its origin several
months ago. It resulted from the in
stallation by the light company of a
new style of street arc light. Mayor
Une and members of the Executive
Board protested against the change In
lamps, contending that the substitutes
furnished not to exceed three-fifths of
the electricity consumed by the oll lamps.
This objection w answered by tlie man
agement of the light company, which
contended that the new lamps furnished
10 per cent morj Illumination than the
old ones, but this d'd not satisfy the
objections of the Executive, Board, which
inaugurated a programme of discounting
the company's monthly hills.
Some time ago the electric company
submitted to the city a ' new contract
for municipal lighting covering a period
of five years. To the proposed agree
ment Mayor Lane immediately registered
a vigorous objection, contending that the
terms of the agreement were decidedly
more liberal for the company and less
reasonable toward the city than were the
provisions of the one about to expire.
He urged further that under the pro
posed contract the rights of the city
would be curtailed to a greater extent
than under the old one.
The result was that when the Executive
Board met subsequently tile contract was
sent to the Council with the recommenda
tion that the city refuse to enter into
t!i agreement. Instead of rejecting the
proposal of the electric company the
Council ordered that the contract be re
ferred to the standing committee on light
ing for consideration and recommenda
tion. Councilman Cellars la chairman of
that committee and the other members
are: Baker, Belding. Concannon and
Menefee.
Cellars Will Present Data.
Tills committee will hold its first meet
ing tonight, when Mr. Cellars expects
to present some facts that Will prove In
teresting and possibly pave the way for
an early adjustment of the existing dif
ferences between the city and the electric
light company. Ever since this Important
matter was referred to this cominltteo
Mr. Cellars has been conducting a thor
ough Inquiry into the actual status of
the relations between the city and the
light company. At the same time the
committee requested from City Attorney
KavaDaugh a legal opinion as to the
rights of the city to withhold from the
company a portion of lis monthly bills,
alleging a non-compliance with the terms
of Its contract with the city. Mr. Kav
anaugh will deliver this opinion to the
committee some time today, that it may
lie considered In connection with the de
liberations of that body tonight.
The whole trouble between the city
and the electric company." said Mr. Cel
lars yesterday, "appears to have "orig
inated from the refusal of the city to pay
to the electric company Its bills for
service alleged to have been rendered
under the terms of the existing contract.
In my Investigations I have obtained pos
session of all of the docunents pertain
ing to the contract between the city and
the electric company for a lighting serv
ice I have been very much surprised
to find that there exist two distinct and
separate contracts between the city and
the light company on the subject of mu
nicipal lighting. One of these agree
ments refers to street lighting and the
other to he lighting of municipal build
ings, and neither refers In any particular
to the other.
Kxecntlve Board Is Blamed.
"I have also learned that the Execu
tive Board has been withholding from
the electric company a part of Its month
ly bills for this service ever since last
Spring without the knowledge of the City
Attorney, who at no time has been re
quested for an opinion as to the legality
of the procedure. It also appears that
since last October the Executive Board
has been consolidating In one warrant the
bills 'both for street lighting and light
ing municipal buildings after making re
ductions In the bills for street lighting
on tbe alleged grounds that the service
was not according to the terms of the
contract. Having done this, the members
of the board have been holding these
warrants until the management of the
light company would receipt its bills In
full.
"Under the circumstances I -onBider
that the course of the city authorities
in their dealings with the electric com
pany is a high-handed procedure, evi
dently dictated by politics. The commit
tee has not completed Its Investigation
Into this wrangle, but when Its work is
finished some facts not generally known
to the public may be expected."
City Attorney Kavanaugh yesterday de
clined positively to say what his opinion
would le as to the terms of the existing
contracts and the rights of the city
thereunder.
