Xambert Receives 134 Votes i to Sabln's 645 Chairman Wlt- ; tenberg Facetiously Instructs SnoceMor, Who Is Sworn In. R. L. Sabln was elected director of the Board of Education of School Dis trict No. 1 at the school election held yesterday afternoon. Although his election had been expected -without oo- Lpositlon. friends of A. W. Lambert, East Portland business man. became active fat the last minute and endeavored to obtain the place for their candidate. Mr. Sabln received 645 votes, while Mr. W-ambert's total was 134. The term nf Nfflce is five years. Immediately upon the conclusion of canvass of the vote at the City Hall, last night, Mr. Sabln was sworn into Ills new position, taking the place of H. .Wittenberg, who surrendered his seat after ten years' continuous service. I pK. Flelschner succeeded to the chair manship of the Board, and lmnn tha withdrawal of Mr. Wittenberg, Mr. kFlelschner was formally ushered Into Jiis place at the head of the Board. Entry of an unexpected candidate Into the field added Interest to an elec tion which was expected to be nothing nore than a formality. It Is said that supporters of Mr. Lambert had been planning such a coup for several days, but quietly remained in the background until the last. The fact that he was vetting considerable of a vote on the East Side occasioned no little alarm, early in the afternoon, among those who were looking after the interests if Mr. Sabin In the election. Telephone 'tails to voters were made In large num bers by representatives of both camps. In but one of the 17 school election precincts did Mr. Lambert run ahead, nd that was In the Ninth, where he resides. There he got a total of 74 votes, as compared with 14 for Sabin. Women Taxpayers Vote. For suffragists It was a glorious day. Women could vote quite as readily as men. provided, of course, they were owners of real property and that their names regularly appeared on the as ; cessment roll of Multnomah County. ; l'o way was available for getting flg , tires as to the number of women who exercised their voting prerogative, but It Is said the number was reasonably large, possibly greater than 50 per cent of the total vote cast. The polls were open from 2 until 6 I M. There was no rush In any of the voting precincts at any time. On the West Side of the river there was a vot ing place to each of the six wards, while on the East Side there were two voting plaoes to the ward, with additional ones at Portsmouth, Mount Tabor and Ar ista. The first count was completed shortly after 7 o'clock, and the final canvass was ended by 8 P. M. The Board of Education was In regular session to re ceive its new member, as soon as his Identity had been established by the count. Mr. Wittenberg, the retiring member and chairman, arose to wel come the newcomer and say farewell to his associates of the Board. He took occasion to point out the peculiarities of the various members so that Mr. Sa bln might be fully advised. Wittenberg Warns Successor. "It is a very good Board you are com ing Into." he advised the new member. "I do want to warn you about a few things, though. Mr. Beach, there. Is an excellent director, but you'll find he Is always seeking to hire good-looking and red-haired teachers. That is his especial hobby. "Then there's Mr. Flelschner. He's really an excellent worker, for he's al ways looking out for the Interests of -the teachers and trying to see that they get everything possible. "Mr. Campbell you know pretty ,well yourself. So there's no use of my try ing to tell you about him. Mrs. Sltton la. a very tine Director, and any time you want a Janitor, just ring her up. She always has a fine list. As for Mr. Rlgler. he couldn't be Improved upon' and you'll always find him pleasant and non-committal, except when It's abso lutely necessary for him to say some thing. Then he may loosen up and say a word or two." In conclusion the retiring Director said that In the ten years he had been with the Board his associations with the members had always been of the most pleasant nature. He apparently was deeply moved at leaving the Board. Mr. Flelschner. on taking the chair, took occasion to express the high re gard In which Mr. Wittenberg was held by the Board. "He has done hard, earn est and effective work, and has always had the welfare of the district at heart," said Mr. Flelschner. "We all hate to see him leave." Mr. Sabln has been a resident of Port land tor 21 years past, during which time he has followed the practice of law and has been the active secretary of the Merchants' Protective Association. He served for three years as a member of Mayor Lane's Executive Board, but re signed last September owing to contin ued differences with the Mayor. Vote by Precincts.

The same com plaint was entered at a previous meeting of the board and Mr. Vaughn insisted that some action ought to be taken dur ing the Summer looking to the construe-; tlon of a new building. His report that the building was unsuited to school pur poses was confirmed by Building In spector Dobson. The matter was referred to the committee on repairs.

VAUGHN GREATLY FEARED MAX HE BEAT UP REFUSES TO PROSECUTE. Belligerent Real Estate Man Must Leave This Part of Country, However, at Once. Fearing a repetition of the Dickerson tragedy, Robert Dunkel, assaulted by C. C. Vaughn, a real estate dealer, on the Portland Heights carline recently, Is said to have agreed not to prosecute Vaughn, provided the latter will leave this part of the country. Vaughn pleaded guilty to a charge of simple assault before Presid ing Circuit Judge Bronaugh yesterday afternoon, and sentence was postponed indefinitely. He was then allowed to go on his own recognizance. Judge Bro naugh said last night It was a case where, if all the parties are satisfied the state is.

Trevers, the National amateur golf champion, who returned from England Sunday, told why he did not get past the first round In the amateur champion ship of Great Britain. "Their system of playing golf is en tirely different from ours." said Mr Travers, "and they have many more good players than we have. When the best gather to compete for a championship, golf of high class Is furnished from the start. Of course, I had to contend against a strange, raw. foggy climate and a dif ferent turf from what we have here. "With regard to my particular match. I did not play so badly. On the other hand, my opponent not onlv played good golf, out luck was with him as-well," THE MORNING RAIL UNION AIDS Rock Island Frisco Official Lauds Recent Compacts. MERGER OBVIATES WORK Ft. G.

That the Portland terminal situation will be settled in the course of a very few days was the only Inference to be gathered from an Interview last nisrht .aC' Nutt. general manager or the Northern Pacific. The only difficulty standing ln the way of the Hlll-Harrlman agreement with regard to the Vancouver-Tacoma tracks has been the Portland terminal situa tion." said Mr. Nutt in the course of conversation in which he mentioned that the terminal situation at Taooma was now settled by the Northern Pacific per mitting the Oregon & Washington to use the Hill depot. From Mr. Nutt's remark It appears safe to assume the Portland terminal situa tion has reached a state when the Hill and Harriman officials have agreed to agree. That a conclusion more welcome to the public cannot fail to follow in the course of a brief time Mr. Nutt ad mitted. Regarding the Portland-Tacoma track age arrangement, Mr. Nutt said the line had not been purchased, that while the O. R. & N. would be permitted to operate trains on it they would be operated under his personal Jurisdiction. There has been a belief that J. D. Farrell. president of the Oregon & Washington, would control the track as far as the O. R. & N. trains are concerned, but Mr. Nutt's statement explodes this idea. Mr. Nutt further declared there had been no purchase of the Northern Pa cific tracks, but as to what arrangement had been come to he would make no statement. In reply to a query suggest ing a heavy rental Mr. Nutt smiled. He was asked what effect Harriman competition would have upon Northern Pacific business and did not seem to think there would be any -great loss to the H311 line. "Of course any business the O. R. & N. happens to take away from us will be business lost to our line, for previously we have had all the busi ness," he said. A suggestion it might be contemplated running the Shasta Limited to Seattle was treated with derision by Mr. Nutt and Via seemori thinly 1. - 1 , 1 - i'ia iutm 1111- mensely humorous. It did not appear un- iijLeiy me --sonnern Pacific was still to carry the bulk of the travel by the route, emanating from San Francisco, at any Nutt said the new Tacoma depot would be completed December, 1910, that pending the completion of the Harriman tunnel at Tacoma,- the Northern Pacific (depot would be used by the Oregon & Washington. He said that Tacoma would then have the finest depot West of St. Louis. I.YTI.E ROAD HAS DIFFICULTY Force of 500 Men Hewing "Way Through Primeval Forest. President Lytle reports that over 500 men are now scattered along the route of the Pacific Railroad & Navigation Company by J. w. Sweeney, the con tractor for the line from Buxton to Tillamook. According to Mr. Lytle who has Just returned from a trip along the route of the road, Sweeney has several camps In full swing, and is pushing wagon roads Into the interior as fast as possible. As Instancing some of the construction difficulties, Mr. Lvtle said there were many trees 6 and 8 feet ln diameter which had to be removed be fore the railroad could make any show ing. Further, the whole line lay through entirely new country, rocky gorges, mountain torrents and primeval forest forming only a few of the difficulties. ruirlner the last tew: days the firm pfj OREGOyiAJf, TUESDAY", , George J.

According to a well-informed railroad official, an immediate issue of bonds for the Clfcago, Milwaukee & St- Paul roads is pending to the amount of 25,000,000 for feeders and extension lines in the North west. As has been before stated, the Mil waukee lines advocate the policy of ex tension by branches, throwing innumer able small feeders into the country drained by the main lines. This Is be lieved to be the policy foreshadowed ln the Northwest. These bonds are being Issued by the Pacific Coast branch of the Milwaukee and will probably be entirely absorbed by the parent syBtem. It is said bankers all over America would be glad to sub scribe, owing to the nature of the se curities, but an impression is current that five bonds, of the value of $5,000,000 each, will be issued. This this issue portends still further and greater development ln the North west appears unquestioned. The direc tors of the Pacific Coast branch of the Milwaukee system have authority to Is sue bonds to $200,000,000 and have already availed themselves to half this extent in building the road as far as Tacoma. There yet remains ln the treasury, it is stated, approximately $25,000,000, making with the new Issue an available fund of $50,000,000 for immediate work. Full publicity to the announcement awaits the return of President Earllng to New York, as nominally, at least, the issue will require his official sanction It is well known ln New York financial circles that the Milwaukee has made Portland its eventual Pacific Coast ter minal and that impression is current that the arrangement with the O. R. & N is but temporary. Whether the Milwaukee will push on to Portland via the Ta coma Eastern at once, appears doubtful but a well-informed railroad man said part of the new issue was designed to cover the cost of the Tacoma Eastern, which, it is known, has been sold, more or less formally, to the Milwaukee. With the exception of its entrance to Tacoma the Tacoma Eastern has excel lent grades much on the pattern of solidity President Earllng has made the watchword of his road. The road has not been an unquestioned success, owing to its limited territory, while with the territory made available by a Milwaukee extension to Portland, the road is thought to be well worth its purchase price to the Milwaukee system.
