SALEM. Or.. O-t- !D. f Special.) The
City ef Porttand 1 now fre to diipoM
f the :sn.noo Rrotdwar bridge bond
la any way that It pleases and at any
time that It pleases.
JusM.e Kakln refused late thla after
ttoon to grunt an application for a re
newal of a temporary restraining order
inhibiting Portland from selling the
bonds and dissolved the restraining
order that las been In effect for sev
eral data and which waa to hare ex
pired at S o'clock thla afternoon.
For more than an hour arguments
were made by Ralph R. Dunlway. rep
fsentinr Frank Klernan, and lawyera
representing Ihe elfy.
KrMralnt I nrmoffd.
Justice Kakln waa railed upon to
dc!0 upon till phase of the question.
lntmu-h as he granted the temporary
restraining- order anft baa been assigned
to the case by Chief Justice Joora.
Jmnlwar early in the day bad mad
application for a renewal of the order
until such time aa trio court made final
!sposlt:on of the rase on Its merits.
With the quashing of thla application
Portland Is now free to dispose of the
bonds.
The original suit, which waa lost by
tie appellants In the Multnomah
County Circuit Court. when Juda-e
George H. Burnett waa sitting to aa-
1st In catching up on tardy business,
carries no restraining order with It
nd In no war afferta the sale of the
tends, providing the purchasers are
willing to fare the pending litigation.
This the prospective purchasers have
agreed to do.
Original Salt Futile.
Mr. Punlway offered the contention
(Wore the Justices that If a temporary
restraining order were not granted and
the City of Portland sold any of the
lnds. no matter to what amount, the
rase on its merits now pending became
a dead Issue and the appellants were
without any recourse whatsoever.
With this In view a speedy sale by
tte city means that the litigation
brought on by Klernan Is (utile so far
as accomplishing Its original object
Is roncerned.
Attorney Dunlway waa surprised when
the Supreme Conrt Insisted that the case
b argued on Its merit1 Immediately.
Punlway and the attorneys representing
the city appeared In court this morning
to erg ii the Issuance of the temporary
restraining order recently granted by
Justice Kakln.
City At:orrey Grant, of Portland,
a.krd the court early in the proceedings
vhtthrr It would be possible to argue the
entire eas on Ita merits and to submit
arguments on the temporary restraining
errter at the same time, thus deciding the
whole rase for alt time. Chief Justice
sloore expressed himself aa understand
ing th.it Mr. Dunlway feared the bonds
might get Into the har of Innocent pur
chaser; and taking thla fart Into con-
rderatlon. waa reticent about advancing
the cause and allowing arguments on
the' merits of the case.
.Case Argued on Merits.
Arguments were then begun relative
to the restraining order. Attorney Punt
way continually entered Into the merits
of the case In his argument and the
whole bench objected.
"If that Is the case. Dunlway finally
said. "'I ara ready to argue the matter on
Its mfriln" The court Immediately dl
reeled that this be done, after City At
torney Grant had said that he was de
sirous of doing the same thing. Dunlway
demurred aomewhat to this form of pro
cedure, but Chief Justloe Moore Insisted
that the question be Immediately taken
tip on Its merits and arguments were re
sumed. They probably will continue
through a large part of tomorrow.
Duniway spent the greater portion of
the. day in presenting his arguments,
whi.-h are principally an attack on the
T'S'ilarlty of the proceedings 0f the

bond election Itself. Attorney for the

to be retried within 60 days and that
this provision had been violated. Judge

JUDGESHIP MAY
BRING
HARMONY
Senator Jones Urged
for Federal. Bench.
JOHN L. ; WILSON PROVIDED FOR
With Poindexter Each Side
Would Have Senatorship.
TAFT LIKELY TO APPROVE
Wilson Now Conceded to Hare Been
Strongest Candidate on West
Side in Washington, So All
Would Be Satisfied.
HOQUIAM, Wash.. Oct. 20. I Special.)
In an effort to cement and harmon
ize the Republican party in Washing
ton, politicians are endeavoring to have
United States Senator Jones appointed
to succeed the late Federal Judge Whit
son, and to have John L. Wilson ap
pointed by Governor Hay to succeed
Senator Jones. Then it is proposed to
ask the Legislature to confirm both
Wilson and Miles t Poindexter at its
meeting In January. '
The men behind the movement be
lieve that In no other way can the party
be so thoroughly Harmonized . and
brought to a solid fighting basis as
by making these changes and appoint
ments. Although Jones would quit a por"' n
keeping him more or less In the pilbllo
limelight, he would succeed to a Ufa
office. By Wilson's appointment to the
Senatorship the Western Washington
Republicans would receive the comfort
for which they sought In vain In the
September primary election.
Hay Reported Willing.
It is said that Governor Hay is will
ing to aid ..the. movement and appoint
Wilson, and If Senator Jones can be
brought to see that his resignation and
appointment to the. Federal bench
would be good politics. It is believed
that the plan will be carried out.
There Is only ' one thing that stands
in the way of the programme, and that
is President Taft's wishes. So far as
known, lie has not been consulted, but
it is believed that he will be willing to
yield to the wishes of the leaders If t
Is their opinion that party harmony cat
be secured by such an arrangement as
has been proposed. Taft's concern In
Washington affairs preceding the pri
mary election Is well known, and, be
sides being personally friendly to
Jones, he has a high regard for the
Eastern Washington man's ability,
which makes his approval seem cer
tain. Party Elements Satisfied.
By the appointment of Wilson to suc
ceed Jones, a large element of the party
will be satisfied, for it is conceded now
that Wilson was the strongest oppo
nent Poindexter had. and if the other
Western candidates had withdrawn he
would have made a strong rare against
the Insurgent candidate. These frienda
of Wilson would be satisfied by his fill
ing Jones' unexpired term and the
Burke and Ashton followers would also
be satisfied, because their main desire
in the primary election was the elec
tion of a Western Washington man.
If the plan is carried out there will
be nothing left for the legislators to
fight over when they meet in January.
All partisan feeling will be swept away
and the legislators can proceed with
their work without being hampered by
factional fights that would arise were
the question of selecting a Senator left
finally with them.
