Commissioner Raftety We live for
our children, and the animals at the
City Park are a (treat educational at
traction for children. I see no reason
to abolish the Zoo. but think It should
be rearranged.
Commissioner Lewis I believe in
the xoo feature of our park system,
but I believe more room is needed for
the comfort of the animals.
Parkkeeper Mtsche Personally. I
oppose a xoo such as we have here.
I would prefer to have it abolished
altogether or Include In It only the
more hardy specimens, something
more of a collection from the West
ern region.
A strong; effort to abolish the Port
land City Park Zoo Is to be made by the
Oregon Humane Society, and to this end
Secretary W. T. Shanahan Is preparing
ss-n ordinance, which ho will present to
Mayor Lane and the members of the
Park Board at the session to be held to
morrow afternoon. He will urge as the
principal reasons for doing; away with
the feature the alleged cruelty Inflicted
!jpon the animals that are held captive
and the large expense connected with
he!r keep.
Mayor Lane Is delighted with the ac
tivity of the Humane Society, and says
Jh hopes It will accomplish its object,
thereby liberating; the animate that are
tield in captivity In the soo. The mem
bers of the Tark Board are not greatly
Sn sympathy with the ideas of the Mayan-,
although they admit that there Is an
element of cruelty In keeping the wild
animals caged or in small Inclosures. The
Commissioners regard the feature as
fclghly valuable from an educational
standpoint. Parkkeeper Mlsche favors
abolishing the zoo or of reorganizing It,
nd making a collection of animals typ
ical of the "West, such as the more hardy
peclmens, so that captivity will work
Jess hardship upon them.
Says It Is Shameful.
"I am of the oplnfcm." said Mayor
tne yesterday, "that there Is nothing
nore cruel In tho world than holding
the wild animals in captivity, as Is be
an; done at the City Park. It is the
nost cruel. Inhumane thing I ever saw.
It makes me sick to think of It. It la
amefuJ. I hope the Humane Society's
efforts will be successful."
i.'I.vha hR'1 ln mlnd tho elimination

years.' said Mr. Shanahan. "I always
regarded It ns very cruel to hold those
nnlmals captive, but I have hesitated to
take the initiative, because I feared that

:Now that the Mayor has taken the lead

'Krtrtay afternoon."
"It Is like everything else." said Dr.
SJ. R. Wilson, chairman of the Park
Hoard. "It Is a question of whether the
educational feature outweighs the suffer

good deal depends upon the way the
nlmals are kept. Sentimentally, I favor
Jetting the animals go, but educationally,
they are highly valuable to ' the ris'n'g
feneration."
Raffety Believes In Zoos.
"All cities have zoos," said Dr. Dav
SRaffety, a member of the Park Board
"'There Is a very valuable educational fea
ture connected with them. I do not favor
the exhibition of wolves, covotes snakes
lizards and the like, which prey upon
more domesticated specimens, but I think
It Is very valuable from tho educational
view to maintain a zoo. We live for our
children, and the animals at the City
Park are a great educational attraction
tor the children. I see no reason to abol
lnh the soo. but I think It should bo re
arranged,, and more room given the ani
mals and- birds."
"I favor retaining the zoo," said Com
missioner Ion Lewis. "No doubt there

In the reorganization ef the park system,
and with the acquiring of more ground'
I think we can arrange the animals and
birds so they will be more comfortable
and better satisfied with life. As edu
cators, they are very valuable to the
park system."
'Personally. I oppose a zoo, such as
we have here," said Parkkeeper Mische "I
would prefer to have it abolished alto
gether, or Include ln It only the more
hardy specimens, something more of a
collection from the Western region, rath
er than Imported, species. One trouble
ln Portland is the lack of room to make
the animals and birds comfortable. As
far as the City Park Zoo Is concerned.
It Is already a nuisance. The wolves!
covotes and the Hon make the night hid
eous with their noises, and the value of
property ln the vicinity Is kept down
thereby. If the goo feature Is to be re
tained. It should be reorganized at once."
Mr. Shanahan said that every mall
brings to his desk letters supporting
Mayor Lane's views, as stated In the
Oregonlan Tuesday. Mr. Shanahan says

there is doubtless a strong sentiment
against continuing the zoo, at least as
at present managed.
ENGINEERS HOLD MEETING
Portland Members of American In
stitute Discuss Technical Work.
The Portland members of the American
Institute of Electrical Engineers held a
meeting Tuesday night In the Chamber
of Commerce Hall. O. B. Coldwell. of
the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company, and L. B. Cramer, of the
Portland Academy, presided as president
and secretary, respectively.
L. M. Antoine. of the Home Telephone
Company, presented an interesting paper
on "Automatic Telephony." His paper
was followed by another by A. E. Burgh
buff, entitled "Hlckeys." which Waa also
very Interesting and created considerable
amusement by the definition of the title,
a "htckey" being any piece of apparatus
that is not sent out from the factory '
with the instruments, but is manufac
tured in the Portland shops.
Upon the completion of the papers and
the discussion, those in attendance were
escorted to the Exchange building of the
Home Telephone Company, where the ac
tual operation of the automatic telephone,
as well as of the "hlckeys,"' was demon
strated. During the meeting, a petition
to the board of directors of the Institute
was signed by the local members, peti
tioning the board for a charter for a local
section of the institute for Portland.
There were about 60 in attendance and
several who were not already members
made application for membership in the
Institute at the close of the meeting.
The organization of this section will un
doubtedly tend to improve the practice
of electrical work in and about Portland
through the exchange of ideas that will
take place at Its meetings, and from the
discussion of the papers presented before
the institute, and will be of great benefit
to those attending. The next meeting
will be held April 20.
TENNANT HANDS. IN STAR
Officer Dislikes. Methods of Acting
Captain Baty. '
Disgusted at the conduct of the Portland
detective department under Acting Cap
tain Baty, Charles Tennant, a member
of the department for three years past,
tendered his reslgnataion to Chief Gritz
macher yesterday and was relieved from
duty. Although the reasons are not set
out in the letter of resignation, Tennant
admits that he is tired of the Baty regime
and wishes to engage ln some occupation
where there is a chance to advance with
out following practices to which he ob
jects. It Is said that several other resigna
tions are to folio- within a short time,
the chief exciting cause being the effort
of Baty to get himself put permanently
Into the detective captaincy, even after
failing to measure up to the civil service
requirements. Since Patrolman Riley, one
of those eligible for captaincy, withdrew
from the eligible list several days ago
thus removing the chief obstacle to
Baty's advancement, there has been much
discouragement among the members of
the department. The complaint is gen
erally heard that merit counts nothing in
the department. The recent campaign
of midnight door-breaking and eaves
dropping is an example of what is said
by the complainants to be expected from
those who would flourish under the
regime of Police Commissioner T. G
Greene.
Tennant's resignation caused consider
able regret among those members of the
department who do not belong to the
"inner circle." He was ln plain clothes
for several months but was returned to
a beat recently because of having1 a dis
taste for keyhole Investigation.
COUNTY TO SELL POORFARM
Tract Elsewhere More Stilted to
Purpose AV1I1 Be Bought.
The County Commissioners are plan
ning to sell the countv poor farm on
the Canyon road this Spring or Sum
mer, and to purchase a tract elsewhere.
The location of the new poor farm has
net yet been determined, but "it Is
thought that options will soon be se
cured, and when this Is accomplished
the Commissioners will make known
their plans. They are withholding
them at present because publicity
would add to the difficulty of -securing
a suitable location at a reason
able price.
County Commissioner Lightner said
yesterday afternoon that if the Com
missioners think best they will adver
tise the old poor farm this Spring. It
contains 202 acres, and it is thought
the county will be able to realize about
750 an acre, or 1161.500. Although the
land ls desirable for some purposes.
Mr. Lightner says that only 50 acres
are ln cultivation, the balance being
covered with bushes. He says it is
not fit for cultivation, as It is very
rough. "We have been working for
some time,r' said Mr. Lightner yester
day, "to get an option on a piece of
property where the soil is good. We
would like about 100 acres.
"Although the Smith tract ln South
Portland has been purchased as a new
hospital site, the county does not enter
into possession of It until May 1. Soon
after that all the serious cases in the
present County Hospital will be moved
into the building which stands on the
premises, and that will be used tem
porarily." AMUSEMENTS

W0 REDUCTION IN NUMBER
Initiative One Hundred Is Behind
Proposed Plan to Remove Chairs
and Tables From Saloons and
Place Control With Board.
There will be no reduction ln the num
ber of saloons in Portland if the Excise
Board and other features of the blU soon
to be circulated by the Initiative One
Hundred are adopted by the people next
June. A meeting of the members was
held yesterday morning, and -It was de
cided best to leave undisturbed the sec
tion of the present liquor ordinance that
permits one saloon for each 500 popula
tion. Hence, "if the saloonkeepers now
holding licenses behave themselves, they
can remain ln business," according to
Francis I. McKenna, the leading spirit In
the agitation of the new' measure for
regulation of the liquor traffic
A final session of the members will be
held today, and the finishing touches put
on the measure, after which It will be
sent to the printer. Numerous copies will
be printed, and the active work of circu
lating the initiative petitions will be com
menced next Monday. It Is announced.
The backers of the movement are thor
oughly in earnest, and state their belief
that the bill will be carried by a Btrong
majority.
The one feature more drastic perhaps
than the others is now eliminated. It was
the clause which reduced the number
of saloons materially, it was thought
wise by the members of the Initiative
One Hundred to exclude this provision,
largely on the ground that some-electors
might regard It as an unwarranted hard
ship upon proprietors of saloons that
would be ordered closed under the terms
of the law. With this feature ruled out.
Its supporters believe the people will en
act it into law.
"The main things now contained ln the
proposed law," said Francis I. McKenna,
are the removal of the liquor business
and the regulation thereof from the City
Council to the Excise Board, the banish
ing of all tables and chairs from saloons
Tv? .B the government into the hands
or the Mayor and a Board to be named by
mm. The Council has not regulated the
saloons, although the members have had
the power to do so."
Mayor Lane, ln his efforts to secure
the co-operation of the Council ln reduc
ing the number of "saloons in Portland
has been urging some such measure as
the one proposed by the Initiative One
Hundred, and has said that, if he. were
given the power to regulate the saloons
ha would bring them up with a sharp
turn and close every 'dive ln five min
utes. He declined to discuss the. pro
posed measure, for the reason that it
names the Mayor as the head of the .Ex
cise Board, and he did not care to make
any statement about It at this time.
Chief of Police Grltzmacher said:
"I have not had time to make a very
careful study of the proposed ordinance,
but from what I have heard of it, I
believe it would be a good thing. I can
say without hesitation that, as matters
now stand, I do not know just what to
do regarding the liquor laws. It would
require a Deputy City Attosney for each
officer to keep the police straight on sa
loon cases, and I earnestly hope that ln
the near future . some simple, effective
law will be enacted that will enable the
police to regulate saloons and restaurants
more satisfactorily."
"I believe- the proposed law Is a good
one, and. that It will have a very salu
tary effect, if passed," said Councilman
Cottel, for nearly two years chairman of
the Council liquor license committee: "I
fear, however, that the provision pro
hibiting any tables, chairs or furniture
ln saloons may work against the bill;
but, as a whole, I can say that I favor
It. If the people want it, I believe It will
be a very good thing."
The initiative petition will be circulated
rapidly, and will be filed within the re
quired time, not later than the first Mon
day ln April, and the people will vote
upon the proposed measure at the regu
lar election, which will occur the first
Monday in June.
