    CIRCULATORS MAY
FACE PROSECUTION
Liquor Dealers Hope to Fix
Blame for Forgeries on
Excise Petition.
ASK OTHERS TO HELP
Ileform Organizations Will Be Re
quested to Aid in Convicting Men
Guilty ot Fraud in In- '
itlatlve Measure.
Prosecution of some of the circulators
of the Excise Board petition Is now
threatened hy the Retail Liquor Dealers
Association on charges of forgery and. if
this course Is adopted, the Municipal As
sociation and the Committee of One Hun
dred will be asked to Join In the move
ment. The liquor dealers think thev have con
clusive evidence that names were forged
on the petitions by the wholesale, and as
the Municipal Association and the Com
mittee of One Hundred stand for moral
ity. It Is asserted that they should par
ticipate in the effort to punish the
offenders.
If such a combined movement Is accom
plished the peculiarity will exist of ene
mies and friends of the Excise Board
plan being found working together to
convict men assisting- the defeat of the
plan by unlawful means.
One of the striking Instances of alleged
forgeries discovered In the Excise Board
petition Is of the name of C. F. Adams,
president of the Security Savings & Trust
Company. The signature on the petition
was so like Mr. Adams' name as he
wrote It In the registration books that
the Deputy Auditor checking the petition
counted It in spite of the protest of the
watchers for the liquor dealers.
Adams' Xame "Was Forged.
Later Mr. Adams was brought to
the Courthouse. where he pronounced
the signature on the petition a forgery.
He signed an affidavit that he had never
BUhscrlbed his name to the petition.
Discovery that the names of saloon
men were on the Excise Board petition
has also been the subject of Investigation
by the liquor dealers. r. Germanlus
who conducts a retail liquor establish
ment on Morrison street, was one whose
name appeared, and yesterdav Mr. Ger
manlus signed a statement that he had
not placed his signature on the petition.
As the grand Jury, yesterday, was prob
ing the mutilation of the petition and the
forgeries that are part of It. the check
ing at the Courthouse was abandoned for
moat of the day. The deputies worked
for a while In the morning, but the grand
Jury had the petition In lta possession aU
afternoon. The work will be resumed to
day. If possible, and completed by night.
The checking, which has been In progress
in the County Clerk's office, will be trans
ferred to the City Auditor's office on ac
count of Interference with the work in
the Clerk's office. County Clerk Fields
has consented to Auditor Barbur taking
the registration books and card Index to
the City Hall, where an effort will be
made to simplify the checking by elim
inating some of the numerous watchers.
If registration Is a necessary qualifica
tion for a signer of a Portland Initiative
petition, the Excise Board petition Is un
doubtedly Insufficient. Sixty per cent of
the 2000 names already checked have not
been found in the registration books or
are duplicates or proved forgeries. This
means a loss of 1200 names, or a number
so nearly sufficient to defeat the peti
tion that there Is no hope for it.
Whether or not registration Is a neces
sary qualification Is a close legal ques
tion and one which will undoubtedly be
settled by the courts as the outcome of
the irregularities in the Excise Board pe
tition. The Oregon constitution reserves the
right of the initiative to "legal voters, '"
but also authorizes cities to provide,
by ordinance, regulations for carrying
out the Initiative In municipal affairs
In ordinance No. 16.811, known as 'the
McNary ordinance, the City Council of
Portland has endeavored to make regis
tration a qualification for voters whose
signatures shall be accepted by the City
Auditor. Section 6 of the ordinance reads
as follows:
City Ordinance on Subject.
T1A Auditor i-.f .V. rl... . t- . .
. " , , ...... ul i ui imnu sn&u

cient number ot Qualified voters b rmmH
have eisned mid petition, he ehall file tho

film. m
As a matter of fact, registration is not
a necessary qualification of a legal voter.
An unregistered elector. If otherwise
qualjfled, may swear In his vote at the
Dolls with the aid nf n1 y frschniH i .
The question has therefore arisen: Has
not Portland attempted to abridge the
Initiative right reserved by the constitu
tion ror legal voters by making reglstra
tlon an additional l o t 1 nngiiHndtin4
It is Contended hv IhA nrnmn.. . v. -

rue ana inai tnererore Ordinance No
16311 Is unconstitutional. But It is the
general custom for city officials and their
legal advisers o accept as constitutional
laws arovemlna- their ivi.ioi .
such laws are declared invalid by the
courts. rnererore. City Auditor Barbur
will follow the provisions of the city or
dinance, unless advised to do otherwise
vy .uy Attorney Kavanaugh. and It is
probable that City Attorney Kavanaugh
will not advise the nitxr A,1rii.n-
regard the ordinance, whatever he may
piivuieiy mina concerning its constltu

The expectation, therefore. Is that the
Kxclse Board rtAlltlr.n win v,-. . .

insufficient by City Auditor Barbur and
mat me oacaers or tho plan will apply
for a writ of mandamus to compel him
to file it and submit the question of the
Excise Board law to the voters In the
next election.
The prediction Is made by City Auditor
Barbur and also by Attorney Roger B
Sinnott. representing the liquor dealers',
that the present tangle will result in a
change in law governing the circulation
of Initiative and referendum petitions
Just what this. change will be they are
unable to forecast, but both express the
opinion that the law has undoubtedly
been shown to be lame In this particular
Mr. Barbur suggests that tho circulator
should be compelled to check up his list
of names -with the registration books be
fore the petition is filed and should be
required to certify to the number of
registered names thereon. Mr. Barbur
would also have it made felony for a cir
culator to make false certification.

By Defeating Atkinson Lands in
First Place.
By defeating the Atkinson School
yesterday the Shattuck School gram
mar school baseball team practically
cinched first place in the West Side di
vision of the Grammar" School League,
and made It four straight victories.
The score of yesterday's game was 13
to 10. In an exciting contest. The Shat

week, and this game should prove one
of the hardest-fought contests of the
grammar school season. The Chapman
School team, the rivals of the Shattuck
for the West Side premierhsip' is root
ing for Couch to win the next game.
In yesterday's game the Atkinson
team became threatening in the ninth
inning, for three men were on bases
and none out. Shattuck changed pitch
ers and the next batter fanned, while a
double play from center field to first
base closed out the Inning and brought
victory to Shattuck. The teams lined
up as follows:
Shattuck. Position. Atkinson.

MOTHER GIVES VERSION
Says Mrs. Saf ten berg Was Badly
Treated by Husband.
Indignant denial that Mrs. A. Saft
ernberg, 167 Grand avenue, who killed
herself with carbolic acid Monday
night, did' the rash deed because of
uncontrollable wrath at Her husband
was made yesterday by relatives of the
woman. Mrs. J. A. Bates, mother of
Mrs. Safternberg, said her daughter
was driven to the deed by the conduct
of her husband, who neglected her by
keeping unseemly hours.
"My daughter was unable to get
along with him," said the mother yes
terday. "Some time ago she came home
saying she could stand the mistreat
ment no longer. She told us she was
going to get a divorce. But Saftern
berg came after her with promises of
future good behavior. She went back
to him but told me he was treating
her worse than ever. It was this mis
treatment that made her what she was
and drove her to death, and not a fit
of anger."

As the Norris & Rowe circus train was
passing through Ashland. Or., on Its way
to Medford to give an exhibition, the
train was held up. H. S. Rowe, aroused
at the delay and the shouts of his train
employes, emerged from his stateroom to
ascertain the cause of the tumult He
found a crowd of Nobles of the Mystic
Shrine of Hillah Temple of ABhland. The
Potentate proved a friend of many years'
standing, and when the request for the
loan of one of the big camels used In the
Norris & Rowe parade, was made Mr
Rowe gladly agreed. The Shriners wanted
the camel for use In the initiation of the
weary pilgrims to pass over the sandy

JURY TO FIX GUILT
Inquires Into Mutilation of Ex
cise Board Petition.
LOTAN TELLS HIS STORY
Declares He Did Xot Know ltelnslcln
and Breslauer Erased Signa
tures Auditor Barbur
Also Testifies.
Rigid investigation of the mutilation of
ho 'xc,se Board petition at the ' City
Auditors office on the night of April 19
was taken up yesterday by the county
grand Jury, and after several hours of in
quiry t looked very much as if a batch
of indictments will result. The Inquiry
will be resumed this morning.
Sam Lotan, Deputy City Auditor, who
admitted Maurice Reinstein and S. Bres
1 PortIa"d Brewing Company,
to the Auditor's vaults where the petition
was kept, and permitted the document to
remain completely in their care for sev
eral hours, was one -of the first witnesses
called. His manner was that of one en
tirely unconcerned, and he protested that
he- had nothing whatever to do with the
alteration of signatures on the petition,
and that he had no guilty knowledge of
the affair. Reinstein and Breslauer have
been served with subpenas to appear to
day and present their explanations of
their strange visitation to the vaults on
the night of the affair.
Considerable Evidence Given.
Considerable evidence connecting Bres
lauer, Reinstein and Lotan directly with
the felony was evolved by the proceed
ings of yesterday. District Attorney
Cameron had half a dozen witnesses on
hand, and while he declined to discuis
their narrations at the star-chamber ses
sion, yet It was learned from a positive
source what occurred.
City Auditor Barbur told of Lotan's
confession to him that he had let the two
men itno the vault and had given the pe
tition over to them. Mr. Barbur also re
called that on Monday morning Lotan
inquired the combination to the vault, a
most suspicious circumstance in Itself
Janitor Devroe told of seeing Lotan and
two men leaving the" Auditor's office at
11 o'clock on the night in question. W.
J. Smith and James Gill, Deputy City
Auditors,, testified to noting changes In
the . petition which had not been in evi
dence when the office closed Monday
afternoon. Devroe was sure one of the
three men was Lotan, but he couldn't re
call the appearance of the other two. as
he paid no particular attention to them.
Lotan. in his own behalf, made a de
tailed statement. He said that on the
Monday night named he was asked by
Reinstein and Breslauer to accompany
'them to the office, as they wished to see
the McKenna petition and check It over
in order to determine if the signatures
were genuine. Merely as an accommoda
tion to the two men. he consents f
no omu. mey arrived at the office about
9 o'clock and he opened the vault at once
secured the petition, laid It open on a
table in the record room and then, sus
pecting nothing wrong, proceeded to his
desk in the main office and wrote two
personal letters.
Failed to See Wrongdoing.
From time to tima Ttn ,tcnnni .
- u .wcu lit LU
see how the men were progressing and
vinculo oi wrongdoing, so he
said. When they had completed their
inspection of the book, he returned it to
the vault and accompanied the two men
downtown, later going home. Upon being
told the next day that the petition ha
been mutilated, he at once admitted, he
said, having given the petition into the
hands of the brewerymen.
The petition was secured from the
County Clerk s office, where the recheck
lng is in progress, and was closely exam
ined by the Jurors. They were shown
where addresses had been carefully erased
on several sheets. In many instances the
erasures were made In order to nullify
signatures since declared fraudulent. In
spection of this petition will be made this
morning with a view to determining the
percentage of irregular signatures, and
thus the process of going over the book

The second phase of irregularity, that
of forged signatures, has not yet been
touched upon by the Jurors. It is first
Intended to affix guilt on those who mu
tilated it. Then the alleged forgeries
will be gone into, and it is regarded as
entirely probable that several of those
who circulated the petition will be called
upon to answer charges of forgery.

track and roadwaay to the Swift plant,
all ready to connect with the electric
branch line."
He also pointed out that it was even
now difficult to keep men at work on the
buildings owing to the difficulties In get

"There will be over 1000 men employed
by the Swift Company, the Monarch

said Mr. Colt, "and unless there be

Councilman W. T. Vaughn was present
and explained at length the situation and
why he had, voted for the franchise. W.

the franchise should be granted. A reso

effect and will be presented to the City
Council today.
J. H. Nolta, member of the league, said
yesterday: "The franchise Is not what

but we cannot afford to imperil or hamper

. An aching back is instantly
relieved by an application of
Sloan's Liniment.
This liniment takes the place
of massage and is better than
sticky plasters. It penetrates
without rubbing through
the skin and muscular tissua
right to the bone, quickens the
blood, relieves congestion, and
gives permanent as well as
temporary relief.
Sloan's
Liniment
has no equal as a remedy for
