MEN CRITICS
tXRESTRY IiAW OFFICER
PLIED WITH QUESTIONS.
IS
Members of Oregon Branch of
American Mining Congress Ad
dressed by W. F. Staley.
X defense of the forestry bureau In
the administration of Its affairs In con
nection with mining1 projects and an
explanation of laws governing- their
operation in forest reservations, was
made last night at a special meeting
of the Oregon branch of the American
Mining Congress by V. K. Staley, chief
law officer of this district. With Mr.
Staley was his assistant, D. F. Mc
Oowan: supervisor of the Columbia
reservation. H. O. Stabler, and J. S.
Judd, Assistant District Forester.
Immediately following Mr. Staley's
address, the assembled mine operators,
including President J. Frank Watson, of
the Congress, fired volleys of questions
at him on technicalities, which kept
the forestry officials busy answering
for half an hour.' There was a display
of some heat in the questions pro
pounded and no little open criticism
of Individual rulings of the bureau
with reference to mining claims in this
and other districts was offered..
In answering one of these questions.
In which he explained the forestry
officials were handicapped by the law
on the question, Mr. Staley grew apolo
getic of the law. He- said In some in
stances, though manifestly unfair,' the
forestry officials were forced to take
aetlon because of the law governing
the case.
On the whole the meeting was gen
erally conceded to have been of value
to both, parties concerned. A vote of
thanks was extended to the law officer
and his associates for the address and
answers to questions. '
"Th forestry bureau welcomes fair
criticism." said the speaker. "We are
anxious to encourage the development
of mines and are glad to consider any
'kicks' you may have against the ad
ministration of our rulings and the
law."
This statement met with applause.
The meeting was poorly attended, there
not being more than half a score of
mgmbers present.
DYNAMITE USED TO SCARE
Neighbors of Beaverton Farmer Do
Xot Believe Murder Intended.
BEAVKRTON, Or.; April 15. (Spe
cial.) With the evident ' intention of
intimidating Tom -J. Allen, a Beaver
ton farmer, an unknown man, sup
posed to be his secret enemy, exploded
a -stick of dynamite about 50 yards
from his house at 9 o'clock Thursday
night, causing one window in his house
to be broken. "
Allen's neighbors say he is a man
of pronounced opinions on many things,
and his set views have aroused re
sentment among many with whom he
is associated in Beaverton. It is the
general opinion among these neighbors
that whoever exploded the powder did
not really intend to cause Alien physi
cal harm, but simply wanted to intimi
date him. The distance of the explo
sion from the house is taken as proof
o fthls.
With the purpose of tracking down
his unknown enemy, jllen sent to Sa
lem yesterday to the State Penitentiary
for a bloodhound, but the animal failed
to locate the boom thrower.
With the exception of breaking the
window In the Allen house the dyna
mite did no serious damage. It was
of considerable strength, however, and
startled the people throughout the
neighborhood..

PAVING IS DOWN NOTCH
BITULITHIC BIDS ARE CUT TO
$1.85 YARD.
Offers for Several .Iarge Contracts
Are Received Only One Firm
After Asphalt Work.
When bids were opened at the meet
ing of the City Executive Board yester
day afternoon, it was disclosed that the
Warren Construction Company and the
Pacific Bridge Company, layers of bitu
lithic pavement, had reduced the price
of their material from $2 to J1.S5 a square
yard. This is in accordance with an
agreement made between them and
Mayor Simon last week.
Asphalt bids were $1.60 a square yard.
i and there was no competition, the War-
ner-Quinlan and the Oregon Independent
Company having no bids in. It begins to
look ' &g though the Barber Asphalt
Paving Company has completely routed
its rivals, who have been threatening to
invade the field, but who to date here
done little but threaten. This .applies
especially to the Warner-Qulnlan Com
pany. , as the other concern has secured
a few contracts.
Hawom is costing $1.75 a yard at its
lowest rate, and Mayor Simon wants a
reduction, before long In this kind of
work.
For the first time. Elwood Wiles put
in a bid for laying bitulithic. quoting
xhe same rates as the other bidders on
this work. Among the large Jobs bid
upon by the bitulithic people are East
Couch and other streets, a district im
provement, aggregating $73,000; Alberta
and others", $oi,000: Barber Asphalt Com
pany on Slavier street, $34,000.
A Powell-street sewer system bid by
A. Lind was $T6,000. and another branch
of the same by Jeffrey & Buffum was
$24,000. All were referred to the eewer
committee, and the paving bids to the
street committee.
On recommendation of the police com
mittee. Policeman Henry Holtz was dis
charged from the force for habitual
drunkenness.
CASHIER GONE, CASH SHORT
"Western Union Employe Missing for
Two Weeks.
R. M. Taylor, aged 26, for the past year
cashier for tne Western Union Telegraph
Company, is missing from his work and
his boarding-place under circumstances
which have given rise to the report that
he has embezxled the company's money.
The police have been asked to locate
him, for, it is alleged, his accounts are
short to the extent of $290.
Local officials refuse to divulge any in
formation about the case. It is known
that Taylor has beep missing for two
weeks, and that experts are working on
his books. Friends of Taylor in the city
assert that he did not take any money
for his own use. but finding his books in
volved and being unable to straighten
them out, he got frightened and ran
away.
Taylor lived at the Torke Hotel, corjier
of Twelfth and Burnside streets, but he
removed all his belongings and paid his
bill there two weeks ago. Since that
time all trace of him is lost. Taylor
formerly worked in the office of the
company In Tacoma, and also in Seattle.
He came to Portland from the position
of bookkeeper in one of the Sound cit
ies, and was promoted to the position of
cashier here.
