THE MORXIXG OREGONIAy, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1909. ' 1 t I I Sja I I N I WET -GflUHTT IUUY BE COUNTED Canvassing Board Is Instruct ed to Omit Vote in City of Rainier. EXTRA BALLOT BOX USED City Attorney Insists Municipality Is Not 6ubject to Provisions of Local Option Law and Votes Cast in City Are Lost. ST. HELENS. Or., Nov. 8. (Special.) Columbia. County, notwithstanding a majority of the votes cast were against prohibition, will' probably be counted dry by the canvassing board, which meets tomorrow. This is due to the peculiar stand taken by the people of Bainier, under the instruction of L. S. Thomas, the City Attorney. Rainier gave 95 majority for the "wet" side, and if this vote is thrown out the county is surely dry. Mr. Thomas holds that under Rainler's ini tiative charter the city is not subject to the provisions of the local option law. and the election board for Rainier pre cinct, acting under the City Attorney's orders, provided an extra ballot box in which the ballots of voters living with in the city limits were deposited, while -those of voters living in the pre cinct outside of the city were deposited in the box provided by the county au thorities. In determining the qualifi cations of voters living in the city lim its the city's reglstraton books were used. It Is evident that If Ralnler's conten tion that her charter exempts her from the provisions of the local option law is correct, her votes cannot be counted to affect the general result in the county, and even if this contention Is correct, the canvassing board will prob ably hold that it has no authority to count votes cast In a city ballot box by voters whose qualifications are based upon city registration books. YAKIMA "WETS" HOPE TO WIN' Saloonnien Work Secretly to Defeat Prohibition Move. NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Nov. . (Special. I The probable result of the local option election, to be held here De cfmber CO. is complicated by the city election which occurs earlier in the same month. While at present it is not be lieved that the city will go dry under ordinary circumstances, it is known that if Mayor Philip M. Armbruster is re elected a large element opposed to his "open town" policy will vote for no licence In order to checkmate him. There Is also a general understanding among the business men that if Arm bruster is elected they will throw their influence with the dry movement. Judg ing from the present registration and the rate at which the voters are coming up. the local option element is not suffi ciently strong to carry tie day. The City Attorney has ruled, however, that the regietration books shall be reopened after the city election so that there will be time to get out the dry vote If the movement gathers new force after the cltv ticket Is chosen. The saloonnien declare they are not much interested In the situation and that thev believe the city will stay as at present. They are working hard, secretly against the drys. however, and declare thev have an eleventh-hour scheme to defeat the measure. P 0. A. C. COACH PLEASES METHOD OP INSTRUCTION" POP tXAK WITH STUDENTS. Captain Evenden, Who Leads Col lego Squad, Won His Position Because of Qualifications. OREGON AGRICULTURAL. COL LEGE. Corvallis. Oct. 3L (Special.) The two men who will have the most to do In the determination of the O. A. C. foot ball fortunes this year are Captain James Kvenden and Coach Sol Metzger. If the trim is successful it will be due very largely to the efforts of these men; if unsuccessful they will be forced to bear the brunt of the criticism. Conditions make their problem a diffi cult one. Two years ago the college turned out a team which finished the season with the best claim on the North west rharr.piorehip. Last year practic ally the same team under the tutelage of the same coach finished the season al most at the bottom. They were able to win only one of the four big games of their schedule. Those who followed the fortunes of the team through the season were unanimous in attributing the fail ure to over confidence. This experience, mav be counted a an asset among the influences which bear upon the present situation because it has taught the men that over confidence is fatal to the best of teams. On the other hand only three of the men who went through this experience are available for the team this year. These men have only played the one year and consequently have not had the ex perience of playing on a winning team. With only this little squad of veterans of a single year's experience as a nucleus, and with a bunch of green men, many of whom have never before stood on a gridiron, from which to draw. Met Kfr and Captain Evenden have had to build their team. Captain Evenden was advanced to a plaoa in the regular team last year. Ke played a strong, consistent nme at guard throughout the season. His active. acressive work on the field this year caused Metsger to switch him to the tackle position. His earnest efforts won for him the captaincy. He is proving himself a good tackie and an able leader. Metzeer's known ability both as a playerand a coach won for him the sup port of the student body and the confi dence of Ms proteges at the very opening of the season. His methods of coaching and his style of play are entirely new to this college and to a certain extent to the Northwest. What will be the meas ure of his success In the intercollegiate contests remains to be seen, but in so far as good results may be judged In other ways thsn by intercollegiate com petition his work has been successful.

At an adjourned session of the Cir cuit Court for the First Judicial District, Judge H. K. Hanna presiding, a number of opinions were handed down yesterday that were taken under advisement at the close of the September term of court Among others was a writ of review taken from the City Police Court, where the defendant. W. T. Coburn, and Au gust Fetsch, desired to test the right of the city to legislate upon tho ques tion as to whether the city could pass an ordinance co-ordinate with the local option law or pass an ordinance making It a nuisance to sell liquor in violation of law. The defendants were convicted in the Police Court upon the charge of maintaining a nuisance. In sustaining the city's right to legis late upon matters of this character, the court cited Wong vs. City of Astoria, which arose over the question -of juris diction. The court held the ordinance was not In conflict with the laws of the state, but was co-ordinate and that a city had a right to pass ordinances which would in substance give the city power to co-operate indirectly with the state as a police regulation and that the local option law has not taken away this under the ordinance the keeping of bottles and liquor in violation of law was a nuisance per se and gave the city ample jurisdiction to legislate against such offenses. The defendants gave notice of appeal to the Supreme Court. LABORERS ARE IN DEMAND Construction Camps on Natron Cut off Are Walling for Men. EUGENE. Or.. Nov. 3.

STORAGE BOOMS TEAR LOOSE Loss In Grays Harbor Will Amount to Thousands of Dollars. ABERDEEN, Wash., iVo 3. Recent heavy rains In the Grays Harbor dis trict, which have continued more than 10 days, have swelled the Chehalls, Sat sop and Wynochee Rivera to overflowing, and millions of feet of logs have been lost from booms and are floating down the rivers to the sea. With the Chehalis River choked with logs and thousands of them slipping past all obstructions and passing aown ine Day or to sea where they will never be re covered, loggers of Chehalls County stand to lose thousands of dollars by reason of the freshet. The rise: came after a dry spell and found the Satsop. the Wynooche and the Chehalis Rivers full of logs. They came down, in such numbers and so suddenly that the mouth of the sheer boom of the Chehalis Boom Company, which operates on the Chehalis River and controls the output of the loggers on the three rivers, became jammed, , and the river was soon filled with logs from bank to bank. Since then the river has been filled with logs. It is stated that the river from Cos mopolis east is literally choked and nav igation Is interrupted. A launch which started for Montesano this morning was forced to turn back. For three miles above Cosmopolis the river was filled with logs and they were still coming as far as the eye could see. At the Northern Pacific Railway bridge in South Aberdeen a Jam has formed and the channel of the stream is practically closed. There is another Jam near the Union Mill Com pany's plant which extends more than half way across the river and still an other at Cosmopolis. Seven tugs were engaged to day in pick ing up the floating logs, but thousands have been lost. The Chehalis Boom Com pany on the Chehalls, Satsop and Wynoo che Rivers serves 15 firms and each of these concerns stands to lose several thousand dollars by reason of the freshet, making the total loss close to 375,000. RIVER SEEKS XEW CHANNEL Flood in Lewis May Seriously Dam age Valley Farms. KALAMA. Wash., Nov. 3. The down pour of rain has been almost continuous In this vicinity during the past four days, and all local streams are swollen to the danger point. Much damage has already been done on the Lewis River and that stream Is still rising. It is out of Its banks and over the county road In the'vicinlty of Klager's Farm, and it is feared that a new channel may be cut across the valley, beginning at the old Robinson place above Woodland. The Lewis River Boom Company's boom at the mouth of the Lewis River broke away under the terrific strain of the flood and drift wood, and over 15.000.000 feet of logs were set adrift In the Columbia River. A large portion of these logs be longed o the Krogslad Logging Company.

PCGET SOUND RIVERS RISE Disastrous Floods Are Threatened If Rainfall Continues. SEATTLE. Wash., Ncv. 3. (Special.) trinoHn and serious' damaee to property are thVeatened at Puyallup through thJ phenomenally rapid rise of the Puyallup River. The river today is as mgn as dur ing the disastrous floods of three years ago. Much debris is coming down the stream. At McMillan, the water la cut- tine awav the soft banks. A dam, caused by debris, has formed at Riverton and preparations are under -way to blast the obstruction, it being feared that unlesB Immediate action is taken the river win overflow the lowlands and cause heavy property damage. If the heavy rains continue, severe floods may be recorded in the White River Valley. During the last 48 hours the rainfall has been 1.34 Inches, or double the usual pre cipitation In King County, even during heavy storms. I B. Youngs, superin tendent of the Municipal Water & Light Departments, received advicee today that Cedar River has risen three and a half feet and Is still rising. The White River, at several points, already has overflowed its low banks, inundating adjacent low lying areas. The Green River at Auburn is flush with its banks. E. J. Decker battled for his life In the waters of Green River eight mile from Auburn late yesterday afternoon, when he attempted to drive his team over a lit tle bridge. The foundations were under mined by the rushing waters and It buckled. Decker was driving a wagon filled with traps for the fish hatchery sit uated not far from Auburn. The wagon and team fell into the river. Decker, aft er a hard struggle, reached shore. The team was drowned and the contents of the wagon lost. While no fears are expressed of any disastrous floods In the valleys because of the unusually heavy rains, it is be lieved that the high water will cause considerable inconvenience to the farmers to the southward and will impede traffic over wagon roatis to a great extent. At Renton Junction, the White River has risen three feet. The water is now flush with its banks. RAI IROAD BRIDGE THREATENS Great Northern Structure at Sno homish May Go Out. 5IT4TTT.F. nv. X.

The mail stage carrying the mail to Etna and Hayes could not cross the Lewis River yesterday on account of the quan OUR TEA ROOM SERVICE tity of logs, ties and debris floating in the river due to the extra high stage of the river on account of the snow and rain that have fallen In the last few days. The steamer Mascot, of the Lewis River Transportation Company, reached Wood land last night for the first time this Fall, and will doubtless be able to come up the rest of the season. Captain Camp bell, of the upper river, has been running the Etna for the past week, which is greatly appreciated by the upper river people, as on account of all the mills and camps being in operation the freight and passenger traffic is better than it has been for two years. SNOW IN MOUNTAINS GONE Castle Rock Believes Danger of Flood Is Lessened. CASTLE ROCK, Wash.. Nov. 3. (Spe cial.) The Cowlitz River was nine feet above low water mark at 11 A. M., and is still rising. There is little fear of a flood because there is little If any snow left in the mountains. A few cords of shingle bolts were lost by the Cowlits Shingle Company yesterday, because they came down so fast and so numerous that the boom across the river could not hold them. Many old bolts belonging to mills are passing. No other damage has been done in this vicinity. Owing to the swift current and the drift, the ferry at this place and the one a short distance below town are temporarily out of commission, and consequently the rural mall delivery is confined to the east side of the river for the present.

STATE TOUR MAY BE OFF Because Students Propose to Use Vlllard Hall, Manager Smith Proposes Theaters Throughout State Be Closed to Club. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Or., Nov. 3. (Special.) The annual tour of the 'Varsity Glee Club to Portland and other Oregon towns may have to be called off this year through the refusal of Mana ger Smith, of the Eugene Theater, to let the club give its local concert in Villard Hall, one of the college buildings. The trouble was caused this week when the students prepared to hold the concert in Villard, rather than pay what they say are the unreasonable rates asked by Smith. The theater man declares he will have all the show houses on the North west theatrical circuit barred to the club, and all its contracts cancelled unless the action Is rescinded. The club is booked to play in Portland shortly after Thanks giving, and was to have made a Southern Oregon tour just before that. Rather than pay Smith's rate of 30 per ceht of all the receipts, which they say is twice what they pay In most of the road towns, the club members say they will disband. Many of the pa trons of the local theater are university students. Unless the trouble is adjusted they declare they will not patronize the house. Lewis River Fruit Attracts. ,.
