BOARD
MAI a I2LW1NG PROPOSED EXTENSIONS OF OREGON EASTERN
xmvujavmiu AJNij DIVISIONS TOR
I arm i
Chief Engineer Hood, of the Southern Pacific, with headquarters in San
Francisco, has asked for bids for the construction of extensions to the
Oregon Eastern Railroad, aggregating 59.48 miles. The extensions are Indi
cated by heavy dark lines In the accompanying drawing. They Include 34.24
miles of track extending southeasterly from Natron, the present northern
terminus of the projected road, and 2 5.24 miles of track extending north
westerly from Klamath Falls, terminus of the California Northeastern and
the starting point of the south for the Oregon Eastern. The probable cost of
the two extensions Is estimated at approximately 12,225,000.

southerly from Natron would terminate
the road from this end in a mountain
ous and sparsely settled district.
Avoid Haul Over Mountains.
For these reasons it Is patent from
a practical business consideration that
the Harriman Interests will complete
the road as soon as possible and place
the investment on a revenue-earning
basis. The primary purpose in project
ing this road was to provide for the
Southern Pacific a better grade for
crossing the state and thereby avoid
the more difficult passage-now followed
over the Siskiyou Mountains. When
completed, the Oregon Eastern un
doubtedly will become the main line of
the Southern Pacific between Portland
and San Francisco.
Not only is the road regarded by Har
riman as the most practical for routing
his Portland-San Francisco traffic, but
It also enables him to reach an im
mensely productive area on the edge
of Central Oregon, which is without
transportation facilities. In addition
to serving these purposes, the Oregon
Eastern also will furnish the Union Pa
cific magnate an ideal starting point
for constructing an extension through
the central part of the state.
It is known that Harriman eventually
Intends to bui'd from his Western Ore
gon property to Vale and Ontario. At
least two routes for such a road have
been surveyed. One extends from a
point on the projected Oregon Eastern
north of Klamath Falls, via "Lakeview,
to the eastern border of the state at
either of the points suggested. The
other proposed route contemplates an
extension also from the Oregon Eastern
from Odell, southeast of Natron,
through the central part of the state to
the same objective point selected for
the more southerly extension.

CONFESS FAILURE
Mayor and Water Commission
ers Admit Mismanage
ment of System.
NOT CONDUCTED PROPERLY
Municipal Ownership Under Mori
bund Administration Has Been
Unsuccessful Excuse for Not
Discharging Incompetents.
Mayor Lane nnrt t-K- ..
?VateJ Board yesterday morniner frank
ly admitted that the municipal water
system, which furnishes the world
famous Bull Run supply for Portland,
is a failure as conducted for the past
many years and at present. It Is mis
managed, lacks business execution and
"f luyeu. or which there are many
are not properly handled to get the
best of results, according to their ad
missions. Because they felt themselves as much
to blame as any one else, Messrs. Allen
and Raffety. of the board, refused to
vote for the discharge of Chief Pump
Engineer Sharpe, and no one was dis-
ixiias,ea as a result of the long Invests ,
gation made into the recent lamentable
accident to a large tube running under
the Willamette River, and which re
sulted In turning river water into the
mains on the West Side.
That muni-ipal ownership of util
ities is going to have to take a back
seat unless there Is tremendous changes
In the service, was the expressed opin
ion of Mayor. Lane, but Mr. Allen re
buked the Mayor for making such a
speech at so late a day, this being the
last session of the board during the
present administration. The majority
of the members present Messrs. Allen
and Raffety refused to act upon a
communication from the Mayor, urging
the discharge of Mr. Sharpe, who is
alleged to have shown himself to be
grossly incompetent. Mr. Lamson alone
voted to discharge him. All of the other
employes involved in the scandal are to
draw their pay regularly, as hereto
fore, all of them being retained.
Frank T. Dodge, who for many years
has been called "superintendent" of
the water system, was censured by
Mayor Lane for failing to check up on
the various subordinates In his charge,
to see that they were doing their work
properly and that they were turning
in correct reports. However, the mem
bers of the board, unanimously, held
that Mr. Dodge is not blamable because
the nature of his work keeps him in
the office at the City Hall much of the
time. He was told by the Mayor, how
ever, that in future he must be super
intendent in fact, as well as in name,
and see to it that those operating the
system shall do their work right, and
not slight it as they have in the past.
Under the amendment to the civil ser
vice law, now in effect, Mr. Dodge has
power to dismiss from the service any
incompetent employe, and it is for the
employe to show, if possible, that he
was not discharged for the good of the
service.
Chief Engineer Clarke and Fore
men Albertini and Gray, it was
decided, are not subject to dismissal,
as it was considered that they worked
hard to locate the accident to the big
burst main and to adjust the gates
so that the system would operate
properly and supply the West Side with
Bull Run water. They failed in this,
and the river water was turned in.
It was later discovered that this was
unnecessary, and that but the one tube
was broken, whereas it was declared
by the employes of the board that both
large mains were out of commission.
GASES GO BY DEFAULT
SEVEN DIVORCES GRANTED

streets, and that Florence Taylor, the
ticket seller for a moving picture
theater, also roomed there. Mrs. de

Mrs. de Cowe said a favorite expres

Clara Foster secured a divorce from
Frank Foster on a charge of habitual
drunkenness He came home drunk every
Saturday night, she said. Her sister re
lated that one night, while she was
dancing with Foster, he fell on account
of his Intoxicated condition, and she

Mrs. Foster also accused her husband
of associating with other women. The
couple married at Hammond. Wis.. Au

She was given $40 a month alimony
and $100 attorney's fees.
Because she was beaten three weeks
ago, Emma L. Morrison secured a di

earns $90 a month. The court decided
she should have $20 a month for the
support of one child.
Mrs. Nellie "W. Smith also told of the
woes of married life, when it must be
endured with a brutal husband. She
said that the day after Christmas, three
years ago, William G. Smith knocked
her unconscious for two hours. She
was sick for a month, she said. They
were married May 2. 1900. and within
six months, she asserted, the beating

with her rival. Mrs. May H. Stowell
decided that one or the other must go.
She secured a divorce yesterday from
Myron R. stowell. whom she married at

lived with her husband for 12 years,
she said, but could not endure his con
duct toward the other woman. She was
allowed $50 a month alimony.

stocks, and went on frequent sprees,
according to Mrs. Ida Stewart, who se
cured a divorce yesterday. They were
married at Eugene. September 26. 1900.
They moved to Monterey, Cal.. after

Jennie Matilda Stephens secured a
divorce from Edgar Bewls Stephens,

As a defense the railway company as
serts that the administrator signed a
paper releasing the company from obliga
tion, the company having paid John H.
Olston $500 for the funeral expenses. Ol
ston, the administrator, said yesterday in
reply that W. T. Muir, attorney for the
company, deceived him into believing

Olston said he did not know the differ
ence between signing the release as ad
ministrator of the estate and as an in
