Simon Says Ellis Ordinance,
Xow Under Consideration,
Embodies His Views,
MAYOR SIMON WILL NOT MEET
BOABDOWMiKS.
Mayor Simon -will not meet .-with
the health and police committee of
the Council this morning:, when the
mebbers take up the billboard ordi
nance, introduced, by Councilman.
Ellis. Representatives of the Mll
boardowners will be there, however.
"It is not customary, when a man''
is arrested for -a crime, to consult
with him as to what should be his
punishment," said the Mayor, when
asked to attend the session of the
committee, this morning. "I am re
.q nesting- reasonable legislation for the
regulation of billboards, and I don't
need the advice and counsel of the
billboard agents in preparing the pro
posed law."
Mayor Simon announced yesterday
morning, after noting the apparent un
willingness of the majority of members
of -the Council committee on ways and
means to do anything toward regulating
the billboards, that he will carry the
question before the people at tlie next
general election, if that is necessary to
get reasonable legislation to this end.
!The committee did not complete its re
port to the main body, but will, hold a
special meeting this morning to hear
p those Interested.
The attitude of the majority members
of the committee is opposed to what
Mayor Simon wants. Chairman Lombard
being outspokenly in favor of the' so
called regulative measure recently vetoed
"by Mayor Simon, prepared by Council
man Wat kins, who is the other majority
member of the committee now having
the new ordinance prepared, by Coun
cilman. Wilis, in charge. That an adverse
.report will be made, there is little doubt.
Committee Opposes Mayor.
Wayor Simon was present at the meet
ing of the committee, and told plainly
what legislation he wants concerning mil
lboards, but the committee members
seemed at variance with his wishes.
They will hold a meeting this morning
to go over the Ellis ordinance, when rep
resentatives of Foster & Kleiser, who
!hold a virtual monopoly of the business
In Portland, and others will be heard.
"The attitude of the Council committee
on health and police seems antagonistic
to the proper regulation of billboards,"
eaid Mayor Simon, after the committee
meeting. 'I have decided that there
must be much more stringent control of
these tfoards, and if the Council will not
grant reasonable legislation, I will cause
the preparation of an initiative petition,
and will ask the people to pass a regu
lative measure at the next general elec
tion. I have 'no doubt whatever that
they will pass any reasonable bill sub
mitted.' Mayor Simon Is deeply interested in
the billboard subject, and is deter
mined to have relief for the people
from what is referred to by him as
"the billboard nuisance." He is ask
ing for control of these advertising
boards for the purpose of having re
lief from the large number of them,
the style and size. In order to protect
life and property and the public
health.
Ellis Ordinance Covers Ground.
The Ellis ordinance, now up for con
sideration at the hands of the com
mittee on health and police, is such a
measure as the Mayor favors. It was
drafted and submitted at his request,
after Councilman Watkins had failed
to bring in such a measure as wjould
regulate the billboards. The Watkins
ordinance, which was vetoed and did
not pass over the Mayor's objections,
increased the revenue to the , city by
$400 a year, but the Mayor is not so
much- concerned about the financial
etde as ho is about the provision to
eliminate some of the boards, fix their
size and manner of construction, and
to see to it that people are not unduly
annoyed by the placing of the boards
near their homes or on their property
without their consent.
The Ellis ordinance provides all of
these things, and Mayor Simon is anx
ious to have it enacted by the Coun
cil. It is probable that in case the
Council refuses to pass it, the Mayor
and Councilman Ellis will embody its
features in an initiative bill and sub
mit it to the electors next November.
It is therefore considered certain that
it will be passed eventually, as there
Is a strong sentiment with the public
foe. strict regulation of billboards.

OREGON LAND CAPTURES
INVESTOR HAD INTENDED TO
BUY CALIFORNIA PROPERTY.
Influence of Wife, Former Resident
of Portland, Leads Husband to
Purchase 100 Acres.
Sentiment and business instincts
combined to bring- about the purchase
yesterday of 100 acres of fruitr land
near Gresham by "W. A. Coplen, whose
plan to go to California to purchase
a home was changed by the influence
of his wife, who, as a girl, lived in
this city and has a lasting- love for it.
The land purchased1 by Mr. Coplen
yesterday Is generally known as the
Emil Wiese place, and the purchase
price was $7500. Mr. Coplen will make
Mis home in. Portland, however.
In talking- of his purchase last night
at they Perkins Hotel, Mr. Coplen stated
that when he was four years of age
he came to Portland with his mother
from Albany, where he" was born, and
staying for a short time in the city
on their way to Walla Walla by wagon,
he was treated by his mother to a
store visit, when she Bought him a
pocket knife. This incident was im
pressed on his mind, for he imme
diately cut his. finger with the knife
before he left' the store, which he
thinks was near the place w.here the
Perkins Hotel stands.
Since that time he was never in
Portland, except to pass directly
through it in the night on one occa
sion, until a week ago today, when
he came to buy a place here.
"I have had much to do with fruit
production," said MY. Coplen last
night, "and it is my opinion that the
eastern parts of Multnomah and Clack
amas Counties are trie best in the
country for f ruitraising.
Mr. Coplen was for a long time su
perintendent of the mineral depart
ment of the Interstate Fair at Spo
kane, and after making a small for
tune in mining, he determined to put
the money into real state, which he
declares is much safer.

Officers Re-elected.
NAMPA, Idaho. Jan. 7. (Special.)
"The best meeting in the history of
the association, a larger attendance,
and more enthusiasm and Interest
manifested than ever before," was the
statement of ' Professor J. R. Shinn,
secretary of the association, when
asked his opinion regarding- the eighth
meeting: of the Idaho State Horticul
tural Association, which closed here
this afternoon.
The forenoon session today was
largely taken up by E. D. Ball, director
of the Utah Experiment Station, on the
subject of "Arsenical Poisoning: of
Fruit Trees," the question which has
aroused a controversy between the
Utah and Colorado experimenting; sta
tions. Professor Ball maintains that arseni
cal poisoning: is not responsible for the
extensive dying of fruit trees in the
orchards of the West, and he gave
substantial proof of his statements in
the resumes of his extensive investi
gations on the subject.
Weiser and Boise extended invita
tions for the next meeting and the
Boise invitation was unanimously ac
cepted. The present officers of the
association were re-elected for - next

CLACKAMAS LOWERS TAXES
General FHind Is Cut .75 of Mill, but
Total I.evy Is Same.
OR0GOX CITS', Or., Jan. 7. (Special.)
The County Court of Clackamas County
lias announced the taxlevy for the year of
1910 to be the same as that of last, 14
mills in all, but the general fund is cut to
.75 of a mill, as against a little better
than 2 mills last year while the state and.
school tax remains practically the same.
Enough was added to the road and
bridge tax to offset the decrease in the
general fund, bringing it up to a total
of 7.S4 mills for this purpose. The balance
of the appropriation is divided as follows:
Stale tax, 24 mills and the school fund
receives 3.16 mills, or enough to made the
total of 14 mills in all. The total value
of ase3sable property of the county as
compiled by County Asseaser, J. E. Jack
is nearly 5500.000 less than that of last
year, being J2i.OS7.O0O in all as against
S32.500.C0O in 1909. The reason assigned for
this fact is that last year thousands of
acres of timber land w& assessed., as
such, which have since been returned to
the Government and therefor now
exempt.

Passengers Who Were Marooned by
Storm Reach Destinations, and
Bring in Reports of Death
and Great Suffering.
SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 7. With the
clearing of the recent railroad blockade
throughout the Rocky Mountain region
and the arrival here of passengers who
had been snow and flood bound, there
was also an Important gathering of
railroad officials, called together to dis
cuss ways and means of making per
manent repairs to damaged roadbeds,
and to consider methods of preventing
similar damage in the future.
Already the line of one road, the San

ing the washed out track.
Porter Stays With Car.
The nine passengers rescued from a
stalled sleeper at Caliente, Nev., yester
day were brought to this city this
morning, but little the worse for their
experience. They report that the last
they saw of their temporary home it
was in charge of a single porter, who
was determined to remain with his
car until the undermining of the tracks
upon which it stood made his further
services needless.
Reports from Butte say that the snow
blockade at Gray Cliff, near Big Tim
ber, which has stalled Northern Pacific
traffic since Tuesday, was reported
clear today. Delayed trains are. being
rushed through to their destinations.
Death in Colorado.

DAVIDOR DUPES FRIENDS
(Continued from Pasre 1.)
immediate marriage was rejected. Be
fore the warrant could be served Davi
dor disappeared. Later the charge was
changed to assault with a deadly
weapon and an effort wah made to
find the fugitive, wherever Tie was, and
extradite him. He was not heard from
again until his Portland business deal
ings involved him in trouble with the
United States Postal authorities.
As a land promoter in Portland Eavi
dor appeared as manager of the Pa-,
cine Northwest Realty Associates and
the Yakima Valley Fruit & Land Com
pany. Greens Become Friendly.
. A year ago Julius Green and his wife
maintained an appartment at 784 Gli
san street, Portland. After becoming
acquainted with Davidor, he and Green
grew to be great friends. "When Green's
health had become bad and he was
obliged to spend considerable time in
a sanitarium, the family funds grew
low and they decided to take a cheaper
establishment. Davidor had been stay
ing at one of the larger hotels in Port
land, but when he heard his friends
were in financial need, he offered to
take an apartment with them to help
keep up the house.
It was about that time that Mrs.
Green decided to sell a piece of land
she owned in her own name to help
out in paying the heavy doctor's bill
and other expenses her husband's con
dition necessitated.
Xavidor Gets Deed to Property.
"Mr. Davidor was in the land busi
ness and I allowed him to' handle the
sale of the property," said Mrs. Green
today. She is staying at the home of
W. E. Cochran, 1309 Hoyt street, tem
porarily. "I wished to dispose of some
property I -had in the Fay tract in
Portland. Davidor suggested that 1
deed the property to him so that he
could handle it better. I 'did so and
he sold the property to Rothchild &
Cohen there- I received a payment of
$500 down and last September I re
ceived $1000. There is $300 due me
now and this has been due for aome
time. Regarding it I cannot find any
trace. The whole affair was in Davi
dor's hands and . he disappeared, I un
derstand. Now, just when I need the
money most, he either has the cash it
self or has discounted the note.
Only Davidor's Word to Show.
'Through him I purchased some prop
erty near Portland from a M-s. Ma'io
Curtis. I paid Davidor $100 down and
then ave him nearly $200 more in
small payments. I have nothing to
show, for that purchase except his word,
and unless this Mrs. Curtis allows me
to keep up the payments on the land
I "have lost that money through Davi
dor. "At the time I was having the real
estate dealing wtth Davidor, he asked
Mr. Green and me to allow him to use
deeds to the property -we had as se
curity for matters in which he was
interested. "We allowed him to do that
and he returned the deeds. At one
time he said he had purchased some

name, explaining he did so in order to
maJce the commission allowed by the
real estate firm from which he secured
the land. Those are the only dealings I
have ever had with Davidor."
5IRS. GREEN HELPED DAVIDOR
In Tight " Place, She Mortgaged
Home to Help Promoter.
Julius Green was well known in Port
land business circles and for a number
of years was the traveling representative
of Lowengart & Co., a millinery firm at
93 K.ront street.
While Davidor, who fled from Portland
the day the November grand jury re
turned an indictment against him in. the
Federal Court, -was on the crest of the
wave of financial speculation which final
ly led to his-downfall. Green and hid
wife became acquainted with him. Da
vidor went to their rhome on Gllsan
street to board and the three were fre
quently seen together at the Oaks dur
ing the Summer of 1909. Where the
company was cheerful, there were they
usually to be found.
Green 1b alleged to have acted as di
rector in some of the companies which
Davidor organized for the purpose of
buncoing the public. He was a sales
man at one time for the Pacific North
west Realty Associates, the company
which made & business of dealing in land
titles which it neiUier owned nor con
trolled. It was for using the United
States mails in the promotion of bogus
sales of real estate that Davidor geft into
trouble with the Government, which
caused his hasty flight to Canada. He
was also connected with the promotion of
the Washington Home. Telephone Com
pany, which he is accused of nearly
wrecking, and with; the St. John Gas
Company.
From correspondence and other evi
dence which has been unearthed since the
disappearance of Davidor, it has been
learned that Mrs. Eva Green at one time
mortgaged the propertyV she -owned in
this city to prevent Davidor's being ar
rested for swindling N. P. Vineyard, a
laboring man living in Portland.
A knowledge of these- facts caused the
authorities to place Mrs. Eva Green and
herhusband under surveillance at their
apartments, 1000 Hyde street, San Fran
cisco, whither they recently removed.
Davidor engaged to sell a tract of land
to N. P. "Vineyard and drew up a con
tract requiring the payment of a cash
deposit of $500. To meet that demand
Vineyard put up all his savings from
years of toil. When the time came to
deliver the land, Davidor failed to come
forward with the papers, and Vineyard
employed Thomas N. Strong, an attorney
in the Labbe building, to represent him.
Mr. Strong pressed Davidor to the alter
native either of deeding over the land or
refunding the money. It was then
learned that Davidor never had title to
the land in question and that it was not
for sale by the owner. In his extremity
Davidor appeared at Mr. Strong's office
in company with Mrs. Eva Green, who
eettled Vineyard's claim by giving a
mortgage on her property to raise the
money. - .
From canceled checks, notes and offi
cial papers which have come to light, it
appears that Davidor repaid the loan
to Mrs. Green in installments, but these
have -also revealed a second transaction
of $1800 in which Davidor and Mrs. Green
were involved. A mortgage was. given
to Davidor which indicates that Mrs.
Green had obligated herself for that
amount.
. It is probable if Davidor is ever brought
back for trial the charges will be changed
to embezzlement, because of the fact that
tle checks he gave Mrs. Green were
drawn on the trust funds of the Pacific
Northwest Realty Associates. Federal
authorities may have difficulty In extra
diting him upon a charge of using the
mails for fraudulent' purposes, but as an
embezzler he can be returned.
