H. C. McAllister, general manager of
the Greater Oregon Home Rule Asso
ciation, yesterday said:
"Just as soon as the result of the re
cent election Is known we are going
to forward with all energy at our com
mand a strong movement to encourage
and perpetuate borne Industries. We
are going further, and fight for a ra
tional compromise and adjustment of
the conservation question, which will
make possible the quickest and greatest
serlrultural and Industrial development
of the state consistent with conservative
conservation. We also expect to do our
shsre towards securing better roada
We will try and live up to our name
it e want a Greater Oregon.
"Regarding the lKuor traffic a meet
ing of the advisory board will be called
within the next few days to map out a
programme In line wltn the promises
we made to the cltiaens of Oregon. The
next step will be to call a state con
vention of Mayor of cities to discuss
tlie model license ordinances and urge
their adoption by each municipality.
Pnbllo 3Ios Co-operate.
"In keeping with our promise we
shall endeavor to divorce the liquor
traffic from politics, by taking away
from City Councils the power to grant
and revoke liquor licenses and trans
ferring that power to the courts. All
these things cannot be done In a day
and It will take time to ork them
out. In this connection, the public
much not think the Greater Oregon
Home Rule Association can do It alone
It reaulres the assistance and co-op
eratlon of the public. The home rule
bill aives to each city the ngnl to gov
ern itself and adopt lawa for self gov
ernment so long as they do not con
fili-t with the criminal laws of the
states. To tske the power away rrom
the City Council to grant liquor licenses
will necessitate a change In the cry
charter, which change can only be
brought about by an Initiative meas
ure. This measure may be voted on at
a special election or held over till the
next city election. The people may ac
rid e for themselves. All that Is nec
essary now to divorce the liquor traf
flc from politics la for each city to
vote that power away by placing the
authority to grant and revoke licenses
with the courts Instead of the Council.
"In this connection I hardly think
It necessary to say that we expect the
assistance and support of the Prohibi
tionists. I know of no reason why the
Prohibitionists should not help us re
move the liquor traffic from political
association. We may differ oa the
question of having the saloon, but now
that we have It. we should meet on
common ground and regulate it. The
Home Rule Association will take all
the Initiative steps to regulete the
liquor traffic and stand sponsor for all
eu.-h measures In addition to using its
best efforts for their adoption, but we
need help., We shall take the lead and
then It Is for the people to say what
shall be done. As the home rule bill
carried and the Prohlbltlonsts will un
doubtedly help us now that the fight
against state-aide prohibition Is over,
there is no doubt in my mind that the
liquor traffic In Oregon will soon be
cn a basis entirely different from that
In any other state In the Union.
Mayors to Be Convened.

ciation, will go before the 8lste legis

Influence to pass a law raising the pres
ent requirement of lio voters to Incor
porate a city to M There Is no doubt
that the legislature alii pass such a
law and it will be a statute before the
home rule amendment becomes a part of

tlmt no small community hat does not

unless a sufficient majority dislrea It.
"The advisory board will meet within
the next few dais and a call will be
rvade for a state convention of Mayors
to d'scuas the regulatory measures m-e
promised In our resolutions, and use
their influence to adopt them.
'l believe we are on the verge of a new
era In the liquor traffic In Oregon and
lhat precedents will be set In this state

People Await Outcome.
Rev. Clarence True Wilson, one of the
foremost workers in the cause of prohi
bition in the state, said last night:

THE corroding power of gossip fur
nishes the theme of "The World and
His Wife." In which thst capital actor,
William Favershara, appeared last even
ing at the Hellfg.
As Its title would suggest, the world
snd his wife delight In nothing so much
as in rolling bits of scandal under their
tongues and the burden of the message
of the play is tbst unfounded suspicions
mar In course of time breed their own
Justification. As a tremendous, arraign
ment of gossip the story is absorbingly
Interesting.
The clay Is an adaptation by Charles
P. Xlrdllnger of "Kl Oran Galesto." a
Soenlsh tragical drama written more
than years ago by Jose Echergay. it
is an aominaoiv coDsruaN on wi
craft: the story Is developed logically and
at all times convincingly. It Is In truth
a play of genuine power and one in
which the general character of the pro
duction is evenly sustained.
The drama has its action in the gos-
siov diDlomatlc circles of Madrid and
Involves the Inevitable triumvirate of
the husband, the wire and another man.
The uniqueness of Kchersay e treatment
lies In the fart that he gives ns the
other" as a charming and poetic youth,
Ernesto, who really adores the wife, but
la absolutely guiltless of any offense
against the marriace law.
He occupies a favored place In the
household of Don Julian and nis wile.
Teodora, both of whom cherish all sorts
of unselfish plans for his future.
The "world" is personified by Julian's
brother, an absolutely sincere, well
meaning man. who has. at heart the
preservstlon of his family Honor. ine
manner in which, he Instills suspicion In
the husband's breast, that husband's
earnest, loyel fight against these suspi
clons. which finally prevail, the way In
which his adored wife and his dearest
friend are involved, are depicted wltn
directness and subtle simplicity that
puts It all on the highest piano of stage
mission.
They din Into Julian's ears the ma
llclous prattle of the club, cafe and street
corner, hurry to him. with every new
Invention of slander or scandal, tell him
he la threatened with shame and din
honor, destroy his peace of mind, kill his
faith In all he holds sweetest and dear
est, "drag Into his house the mire of the
streets, stamp It on his neartnsione ana
when they have maUAerved him by the In
famy." bid him be calm, that It Is noth
ing, really nothing but idle gossp.
As a result the Innocent victims,
Teodora and Ernesto, are driven Into
doing that of which they had been
wrongly accused.
This woman's soul was pure as the
sunbeams: my heart as clear as the
skies," Ernesto cries In the eloquent
utterance with which the play closes.
"Now It Is as you would have It. . . .
Go. cry it from the windows and the
housetops, to all your neighbors, you
and your kind. . . . And when they
ask you who has wrought this marvel
of infamy, answer them you have done
It, and 1. and that man there, and that
one. ... all of us everywnere. we
mixed the subtle poison and scattered
It to the winds by gossip so that these
two might breathe it in. to stifle con
science and stain the soul.' "
Mr. Faversham plays the part of Er
nesto, the victim of the slanderous
suspicions. Never has he given us any
thing so finished, in no other role has
he so dominated the play. Part of this
Is because he does not seek to take one
Jot from the activity of the other play
ers. H. Cooper Cllffe as the husband has
a role that Is eJmost as good as Mr.
Faversham's. and be plays It splen-
Miss Julie Op p. as Teodora. Is not
only as lovely as always, but evidences
great strides In her emotional acting.
The rest of the east is highly adequate
and the play Is handsomely staged
throughout.
"The World and His Wife" will re
main at the Helllg for the rest of the
week.

Employes of Seaside' Concern
Fail to Get Back Pay.
BANK'S VAULT IS SEALED
W. S. Henninpcr, President of Man.
nfartnrlns; Company, Falls to
Settle With Men Depositors
Discuss Money Snarl.
SEASIDE. Or., Nov. 10. (Special.)
Faillns; In their attempt to collect the
two months' back pay due them, the
men employed by the Seaside Lumber
V Manufacturing Co., to give finan
cial aid to which Edward Hennlnger
wrecked the Bank of Seaside and then
committed salclde rather than face the
consequences, walked out after an
hour's work this morning. Those who
had money left the city In search of
employment where wages were more
certain, and the rest of them are wan
dering about the streets, penniless and
discouraged.
When they assembled for work this
morning the men delegated the time
keeper to call upon W. S. Hennlnger,
president of the concern as well as of
the defunct bank and brother of the
suicide, and inform him that unless
their money was forthcoming they
would quit.
Request Is Refused.
Mr. Hennlnger asked that they keep
working until they could ship three
carloads of doors, saying that he would
pay them from the proceeds of the
sale. The men rejected the proposition
and. despairing of Immediate financial
relief, left the company s plant.
The vault and safe of the wrecked
bank has been sealed, pending the ap
proval of a receiver by the State Bank
Kxamlner. This was attended to by
Will H. Bennett, Assistant State Bank
Examiner, who arrived in Seaside last
night and left this morning for As
torla.
Petition Is Circulated.
A petition asking for the appoint
ment of A. I. Washer as receiver, clr
culated by E. W. Lippla. one of the
large depositors, was readily signed by
local depositors. The petition has been
forwarded to Bank Examiner Wright.
At a meeting of the depositors of the
bank, held In the City Hall. J. A.
Smith, an attorney of Astoria, was ap
pointed to act In their Interests In the
settlement of the bank's affairs. Chair
man R. A. Price appointed V. Dresser,
Alex Gilbert and Dr. W. K. Lewis as a
committee to advise the attorneV as to
what course the depositors wished to
have taken In the disposal of the
curl ties.
Since this morning the plant of the
Seaside Lumber Manufacturing Com
pany has been Idle. W. 6. Hennlnger,
the president and manager, has not
made any statement as to what will
be done. As fast as they can the
former employes are getting out of
town, as there Is no other work to be
had at this time of the year, and the
merchants refuse to extend further
credit to them.
PORT MAKES ITS REPLY
(Continued from pas 14).
a contract with th O. R. A N. Company
pledging the people of Multnomah
County to pay tor the upper deck of the
new steel bridge over the Willamette
River, upon terms that were unfair to
the county.
Answer Iso such contract was ever
made, nor had the Commission any
power to make It, Up to the time of
the recent decision by the Supreme Court
of the Btate of Oregon. It was generally
understood and so far ss we know, never
questioned, that the Port of Portland
Commission had Jurisdiction over the
bridges across the Willamette River.
They were so advised by their own coun
sel, the same belief was expressed by
the legal member of the Commission;
the eminent lawyers representing the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
Railways. In all the course of their long
fight with the Commission before they
succeeded In getting Its consent to
bridge the Willamette River at Llnnton.
never questioned the Port of Portland's
jurisdiction: the Mayor of the city, head
ing a deputation of cltiaens who desired
the draws to be closed during certain
hours, made application to the Commis
sion for its consent to such procedure.
Franchise Claae Mere Option.
It was In the same belief, no doubt
that the O. R. A N. Company applied
to us for a franchise covering the new
Steel bridge that they purposed to erect In
place of the old one, and sucb franchise
was granted, after many months of
negotiation, on the condition that the O.
R. & N. Company would build at their
own cost an upper deck, of which the
city and county were to have the use.
If desired by them, at a rental that
should not exceed five per cent per an
num on the cost of same, and that
should provide a sinking fund to extin
guish the said cost In JO years, which
period was estimated to be the life of
the bridge. The franchise further con
tained the condition that in case the city
or county did not avail of the privilege,
the railway company would have the
right to levy tolls, with the same limita
tions as to amount, on such traffic as
should use the bridge. But no art of
this Commission bound or attempted to
bind either the city or ths county or
any Individual to use it on any terms
whatever, or to pay any portion of the
cost of its erection, or to pay any tolls
for crossing it. except by those who
might elect to do so. And if Mr. Munly's
contention Is sound that there will be
no use for the Steel bridge after the
Broadway structure Is bu'lt neither the
city nor the county nor the public will
pay one dollar, either for rent or toll.
The franchise .granted by the Commis
sion simply secured, without expense to
the city, the county or any individual
therein, an option which the city, the
county or the Individual Is free to avail
of and equally free to ignore.
Time Cheerfully Given.
In conclusion the undersigned beg to
remind the public that the Port of Port
land Commission Is the creation of the
Legislature of the State of Oregon; that
at one time or another every member of
the present Board has been elected by
that body; that It considers itself bound
to perform the duties allotted to --It until
such time as the Legislature shall see
fit to relieve the present members and
elect others to take their places, when
the undersigned will most gladly te
tire and allow their tasks to be per
formed by other people; that no mem
ber of the present Board ever sought
the office or took it or held it except
to perform a public duty; that the mem
bers serve without compensation; that
they have given freely and cheerfully
of their time and thought to safeguard,
according to their lights, those Interests
that were committed to their charge
That they should have performed their
duties to the satisfaction of every citl
sen or . that they should escape crlt
cisra Is, of course. Impossible, but that
they should have been assailed as they
have been Is Inexcusable and without
warrant.
In the position that they were tin- i
derstood to occupy, as the guardians
of the commerce of the port, tliey op
posed the erection of the Broadway
bridge at the present time and for the
following reasons:
First All bridges are an obstruction
to commerce and should not be allowed,
except when necessary for the accom
modation of the public. The growth of
Portland In the past has been in s.reat
measure due to her ocean commerce
the question of her future supremacy
as the leading port of the Northwest,
if not of the Pacific Coast, depends
upon the maintenance and extension of
the commerce. The port is greatly
handicapped, as compared with the
Puget Sound cities, which are making
a great struggle -to control the exports
from the Coast, by her distance from
the sea and the obstacles of the bar
and river, and, therefore. It behooves
her citizens to consider carefully sny
project that looks to a further limita
tion of her shipping facilities.
Bridge Delay Crged.
Second The construction of the pro
posed Broadway bridge in the near fu
ture, and, while work is being pros
ecuted on the two O. R. & N. bridges,
old and new. Is specially objectionable,
as the passage of the river will at cer
tain stages of the water be absolutely
Impossible, and In view of the en
larged facilities that will be available
In the near future, can be postponed
without Injury to any public interests
or to public convenience.
Third The careful and impartial con
sideration that such a problem de
mands cannot be given to it at a time
when there Is a temporary congestion
(as to the amount and Importance of
which, there are differing opinions even
now), which congestion will shortly be
relieved by the two new bridges that
will more than double the present ac
commodations for public travel between
the East and West sides. It has been
and is the opinion of the Commislon
thst the four bridges that will shortly
be In operation will be all that can be
required for years to come, and In this
Judgment they observe that Mr. Munly
concurs. The Oregonlan reports him
as saying that after the construction
of the Broadway bridge there will be no
use for the O. R. & N. structure. It
follows, therefore, as a logical conse
quence, that after the new facilities sup
plied bv the O. R. & N. Company are
available the Broadway bridge will be
useless.

FIGHT FOR LIFE ON
Coast Jobbers Seek Lower
Distributive Rates.
MARKET TOO RESTRICTED
Hearing Soon to Be Held by Wash'
ington Commission Involves
Opening of Interior to Mer
chants of Seaboard Cities.
After seeing the State of Washing
ton launched in Its biggest fight for
a revision of distributive rates in the
state. Attorney J. N. Teal returned to
Portland yesterday morning from Ta
coma.
Mr. Teal represented the cities of
Tacoma and Seattle in a complaint filed
with the State Railroad Commission
charging that the distributive rates
from these places charged by the rail
ways were unreasonable and abnormal
The action seems to have arosued the
remaining commercial centers of the
state and now Walla Walla, Aberdeen
Spokane and other places have entered
Into the fight. Every railroad In the
state will be represented at the hear
lng to be held at some date not yet
determined upon.
"We are i.ghtlng for the life of the
Jobber and the manufacturer, said Mr.
Teal. "The possibility for development
of manufacturing on the Pacific Coast
lies within the power of its railways
more than anything else. At the pres
ent time a reasonable distributive rate
is only permissible along a narrow
strip of the Coast, When the Jobber
and th manufacturer goes across the
range be Is getting into doubtful terrl
tory. He is burdened with unreason
able rates. It is these charges which
we are endeavoring to correct and we
hope to secure a Just decision from the
fact that a comparison with Jobbing
and manufacturing centers in the East
and Middle West clearly indicates The
unreasonableness of the present dis
tributlve tariff."
When Spokane, Walla Walla and
Aberdeen entered into the fight, they
brought the O. R. & N. into the contest,
and indirectly Portland. It is pointed
out that, if a new distributive rate is
given Spokane or Walla Walla from
Seattle or Tacoma it follows that the
rate from Portland to these and t.ie
Intermediate points will have to be re
vised.
No date was fixed for the hearing
owing to the absence of the statistician
for the board, O. O. Calderhood, who is
In St. Paul checking up the railroad
movements of a distributive character.

PKK our . your home site in a section
that is reached in quick time,- that has
excellent streetcar service, that is ap
proached by a wide double-tracked,
hard-surfaced street, like Hawthorne avenue,
where there is every indication that that sec
tion will increase in value rapidly, where prices
are not too high now, where there are already ,
built numerous comfortable homes where'
you are just far enough away from the hustle
and bustle of the downtown district, yet near
enough to the center to reach the shopping
district and the theaer in a few minutes.
Fiftieth and Hawthorne is such a location.
The opening of the Madison-street bridge is
going to make this section on of the most
valuable in Portland for home sites. Now is
Xhe time to buy; $10 a month pays for any of
our 50th and Hawthorne lots. You can arrange
to have your home built right away, too, if
you wish and pay for it in small monthly pay- .,
ments. There are but a few lots left. It will
be to your advantage to act at once.
