Mayor Lane and the members of the Park Board met In an Informal session yesterday afternoon to discuss the proposed pur chase of a 12-acre tract of ground In Sell wotd. above The Oaks, at a price of JT).oo. It has been asserted that the amount named In the ordinance Is exor bitant, and that the city. If It closed the deal, would be virtually robbed. It was to Inquire Into these rumors and to devise a means of avoiding this that the Board met. It was finally decided to secure a survey of the ground at once, to ascer tain Just where It lies and then to check up and determine whether the rate is reasonable. "Because It has been alleged thst tlie price named In the deal Is ex orbitant and that the city is being robbed, we held an Informal meeting and decided to get a survey of the ground and ascer tain whether the land Is good and the rate reasonable." said Mayor Lane after the meeting. "There must be no unfair prices paid for this property, and we will see to It that the right thing Is done in all the purchases."' City Engineer Taylor will make the survey for the Mayor and the members of the Park Board. It is contended that the ground named In the papers to the city Is first-class, and that It Is confusion between this land and some near it that has caused the suspi cion. Resccti Homb Ntods Help.

SPEAKS TO COUNTY BAR That Circuit Judg Is Temperamen tally Arrayed AVith Strong as Against the Weak Is Sub stance of Address. Circuit Judge Cleland was denounced scathingly by ex-Judge Henry E. Mc Ginn In an address before the Multno mah County Bar Association at the Courthouse last night as a man tem peramentally unfit to fill any Judicial position. "Judge Cleland Is a reactionary, an ultra-conservative, and belongs to one neriod In the history of law and Its administration of the past," said Judge McGinn. "He has not made one parti cle of advance since tho Middle Ages. He always is allied with the strong as against the weak: the rich as against the poor. I do not wish to Imply that this is due in any sense to any influence, for It comes irom nis constitutional temperament. I deRlre to call the speaker to order, Interrupted Arthur P. Tittt, jumping to his feet, but a number In tho audience urgea Judge McGinn to continue his remarks. which he did without further interruption. "In every controversy that arises in this department, resumed Judge mcijinn. Judge Cleland invariably is found with the strong and arrayed against tne weaa. This, no doubt, la due entirely to the way he views things, rather than that he in tentionally is in the wrong. Judge Cle land Is an ultra-reactionary, an ultra-conservative and has no place on the bench. In everv case that Is tried before him, Judge Cleland makes up his mind early In the case, and. having once made UP his mind, he la utterly immovable. There is no ones! Ion but that tne proposal to in crease the membership of the bench in this county is In the Interest of Cleland's retention in office." The denouncement of Judge Cleland's Judicial qualities by Judge McGinn came In connection with a discussion or a mo tion proposing that the association re scind a resolution adopted last October and declaring for an Increase In the num ber of Circuit Court Judges In this county from four to six. Judge McGinn had been Invited to address the association in opposition to the propose enlargement of the Judiciary. Dan J. Malarkey answered the argu ment of Judge McGinn, contending that a discussion of Judge Cleland nad no place In a consideration of the merits of the movement for two additional Judges in this district. After an ex tended discussion, in which several other members of the association par ticipated, the motion to rescind the as sociation's former action failed, not a siugle affirmative vote being cast In Its SUDDOrt. Judge McGinn opposed the resolution on the general grounds that the bus! ness of the district did not require the services of two additional Judges. He criticised at considerable length the present system of administering the business of the courts In this county and. attributed to that system the congested condition complained of and on which the advocates for two more Judges large ly base their argument. He denied that there was any valid excuse for the courts to be overloaded with work In recent years, except during the series of legal holidays In the Fall of 1907. It was pointed out that the four Judges now on the bench had an easy time and It was rharged that lti is not infre quently that there is not transacted any business in either of the fovu- depart ments. Judge McGinn denied vigorously that the Judges now serving In this dis trict were overworked. He s.-iid they were on the bench only from 9:30 A. M. until noon and from 2 P. M. until G P. M. In addition, he said each of the Judges annually took a two months' vacation. Condemns Outside Engagements. Judge McGinn also criticised the present system by which litigants are compelled to pay a library tax in au dition to other court costs. He pro nounced objectionable the practice whereby members of the bench are employed as lecturers In the law school. He favored paying the Judi ciary an adequate salary, as much as JiiUOO a year, and then uemanning inai they give their time entirely to th people. In con.'.udlng his remarks. Judge McGinn said that, regardless of the ac tion of the amioclation lit Its final con sideration of the resolution, he would take his fight into the Legislature. Should he fail to defeat the proposed bill when it comes before tke law makers, he declared that he would take the fight right to the Governor. Should the Governor decline to veto such a bill. If passed. Judge McGinn an nounced that he would invoke tne rer e re mi urn and take the measure before the people. Following the startling charges of Judga McGinn, M. C. George, ex-Judge of the Circuit Court, was called upon. Judge George, however, excused him self from participating In the discus sion, so far as personalities were con cerned, but said he thought that there should be some changes in the present system of administering the court business of the county. He also de clared for an Increase In the number of Judges. Mnlarkey Makes Reply. In replying to the argument of Judge McGinn. Mr. Malarkey defended the present system. Referring to the at tack by Judge McGinn on Judge Cle land. he said that the discussion of that phase of the situation had abso lutely nothing to do with the merits of the controversy as to whether or not the district should have additional Judges. Mr. Malarkey called attention to the fact that Judge McGinn was a member of the Legislature of 18S3. when the number of Circuit Court Judges in this county was Increased from two to four. It was further pointed out that Judge McGinn was also a member of the Leg islature at the sessions of 1901 and 1905, and at neither session did he make any effort to reduce the number of Judges. In support of the contention for ad ditional Judges. Mr. Malarkey quoted satisfies that had been obtained from the clerk of the court showing that the number of civil and criminal cases filed In this county had Increased from 788 In 1901 to 2039 in 1908. According to the figures presented by Mr. Malarkey, the number of cases filed each year since 1901 was as follows: 1901, 788; 1902. TS3; 1903. 1104: 1904. 138S; 1903. 1593: 1906. 1509; 1907, 1532; 1908. 2039. Another point urged by Mr. Malarkey was that since 1S93. when the member ship of the bench was doubled, the population of the city had increased at least 100 per cent. Joseph Makes Explanation. At the close of Mr. Malarkey's re marks, George W. Joseph, author of the motion to rescind, explained that the reason he had presented his motion was because the enactment of a law such as suggested by the resolution would have the effect of perpetuating Judge Cleland In office. Mr. Joseph declared that he Intended to oppose Judge Cleland openly and with all of his might whenever the latter became a candidate for any Judicial office. Representative Clemens' anti-con tln-gent-fee bill was denounced as unfair and unjust and "an outrage." At the same time the meeting Instructed Its legislative committee to favor the en actment of a law making Indemnity In surance companies party defendants to all suits for damages for personal In juries against corporations indemnified by such companies. In this relation the committee was Instructed to have incorporated In the bill a provision making competent evidence on the trial of a case to show that the defendant corporation Is Insured, without specifi cally designating the company furnish ing that Insurance.

Lights Go Out and Preparation of Dinner Pauses In Many Homes. High pressure on the main that carries g:is across the Burnslde-street bridge tp ldat Siders, blew out a rubber valve in the connection at the east side of the draw, last night shortly after li o'clock. For about 15 minutes It appeared to all of Hist Poitlanders using gas that they would have to go out for supper, and then buy some candles, or go to bed in the dark. The accident occurred at that very In teresting hour when in thousands of homes the evening meal is in course of preparation. Housewives at their gas ranges saw the flames die down and go out, leaving the meal half cooked; other folks arranging their toilet preparatory for dinner or a social visit, were sud denly left in darkness, groping about for elusive articles of apparel which simply refused to be found until the light came back. The Inconvenience occasioned by tho eclipse was great and patience and amiability had their tryout last night wherever the householder depended solely on gas for light and cooking. The valve explosion was unattended by damage. It was speedily remedied but during the quarter of an hour in which it was being repaired the pressure on thla main had to be turned off and as a con sequence the entire Kast Side was cut off from its gas supply.- The unusually high pressure was necessitated because rcDalrs were being made at the gas res ervoir on the East Side, which was out of commission, and empty. The entire supply having to come from the West Side extra pressure was exerted unon the pumps and all this district was supplied directly from the mains. Leaks were started in many places on tne ivasi Side but beside the explosion of the valve on the bridge there was no other accident.
