WOOL ISSUE
Bitter Opponents on Tariff
May Be Heard .Before Com
ing Convention.
COMBINATION IS DENIED
Grower, Contending Only for nty
on Wool In Gree, Will Aase-rt
That Manufacturer Hit
Better of Situation.
Vfon the platform In th Armory dur.
Inc th huIod of th National Associa
tion of Woola-rowers from January 4
to T will appear tho two arch-opponents
within tho wool circles of tha
Volted1 States William Whitman, mil
llonalro woolen manufacturer of Wor
cester. Uu. and Frank P. Bennett,
editor of the American Cotton and
Wool Reporter. These men hav been
wajrtnir a battle of a National charac
ter mora than 10 years It has cropped
it In the wool association. In Congress
and before the committee on ways and
means of tha House of Representatives.
Even a libel suit In the East is re
corded In the warfare between these
two slants of tha wool Industry. Just
what will bo tha result of their meet
Ins; hero on tho same platform l prob
lematiral. an3 It Is rewarded as not ab
solute! certain that Mr. Whitman will
not chan- his mind and decide not to
com to Portland.
To add Interest to the warfare Ida
Tarbell In a recent article in a mtt
Blne exploited the situation, calling: at
tention to tha attitude of Mr. Whitman
with regard to tha duties fixed in
schedule K- She maintains that all of
the Inequalities of the schedule wer
tha product of the brain and Influence
of Whitman and says that sha believes
the charjres made by Mr. Bennett, that
9. N. D. North, ex-census director and
secretary ot the National Association of
Woolen Manufacturers. "bed worked on
Aldrioh's flnanr committer while It
was busy with tha Dingier bllL a the
paid lobbyist of William Whitman and
one other manufacturer.
Wooljrrowrrs Duped, la Charge?.
In addition. It Is asserted that "he se
cured benefits for them (Whitman and
on other manufacturer) regardless of
ether Interests. It Is further asserted
that Whitman used the woolgrower
of the West as "the rat to pull out Ma
chestnuts In the fire."
Bennett asserted that he bad certain
letters In bla possession which would
prove that Whitman bad paid North to
Set results In scbedale K. These letters
were obtained In a trial for libel which
took plsce in Massachusetts and were
produced as the result of an order of
court. They were from the private cor
respondence of whitman with members
of Congress and with North.
The publication of thes articles by
J.! las Tarbell and the discussion In lead
ins: newspapers of the Rast may result
In a final clash before the convention In
Portland. The wool tariff and the at
titude of Congress will be dlecussed. to
gether with the situation In which the
woolen manufacturers have placed the
wools-rower. It Is declared in the vari
ous charges made that there is combi
nation between the woolgrower and the
woolens manufacturer. The grower la
strong In the West and has great Influ
ence with his members of Congress. It
Is asserted. The woolens manufactur
er in the Kast Is equally strong with his
members of Congress and by uniting
their foreee the woolarowers were en
abled to get what they wanted.
Growers Make Disclaimer.
The woolgrower. on the other band.
4oiares that ha Is Innocent. He asserts
that there was no combination; that be
ought only the necessary protection to
which his Industry Is entitled and that
chedule K. which was to a large ex
tent under the watchful care of the
manufacturer, was created to suit
the maker rather than the grower. He
disclaims all knowledge of the work of
Whitman. Insofar as bis relations with
North are concerned, and proposes at
the coming meeting to make bis posi
tion clear for the retention of the tariff
on raw wool, no matter what mar be
done In the slashing process proposed
y the Insurgents of Congress.
The woolgrower now asks only for a
duty upon wool In the grease. He has
nothing to do with "top wool" "carded
wool'' ajid the dosen or more grades
whlrh are the product of the scouring
mill and whlrh belong to the manufac
turer and hla products In fact, the
f lorkmaarers are lukewarm as to
whether there is anr further necessity
fur protection outside of their own
field of endeavor. Wool today Is sell-
'lng for It cents, while scoured wool
commands the price of (0 to SS cents.
It Is contended that the wool mill has
too much protection; that the difference
la weight does not account for the dif
ference In price.
Th quemlon of asking for a duty on
other wool than thai In the grease will
be considered by th convention.

NORMANS TO BEGIN SUIT
CONTROL OF HOTEL PORTLAND
' IS ISSCE TO BE DECIDED.
Certificate Demanded for 2 7 Slares
of Stock Acquired In England.
Improvement Postponed.
Suit probably will be Instituted
against the Portland Hotol Company
within a week or ten day to compel
the Issue of certificates for 27 shares
of stock held by Norman Brothers, of
Spokane, recently acquired In England.
A formal demand was made on the
board of directors jit the Hotel Port
land loo days prior to the regular
monthly meeting lsst week, with a ten
der of the amounts due on the sub
scribed stock, together with interest,
and certificates were refused. The
action of the board of directors In re
fusing to Issue certificate for the stock
Is said to have paved the way for the
eult.
Day Brother and their allied in
terests, now In control of the Port
land Hotel, say that no payments have
been made on the stock and that the
stock held in Kngland. which was sub
scribed years ago. is no longer valid
because of nonpayment of amount
due. The Norman Interest contend
that the stock Is valid and that no ef
fort was mad to declare It forfeited
until last October. The Normana aay
this action was equivalent to a recog
nition of the validity ot the claims
Should tbe courts decide thst the
Normans have a legal claim and that
certlficatea for 2? shares of stock must
be lasued by the Portland Hotel Com
pany, the decision will again place the
Normans In control of the hotel.
As the Day Interests know of this
Impending suit It virtually has been de
cided by the board or directors not to
build an annex of is room and make
other extensive Improvements as con
templated. Plans have been drawn by
three architects for the addition and
Improvements. which 'nclude new
dining-room and grill, and were sub
mitted to the directors Before action
was taken the threatened suit stared
them In the face and negotiation were
dropped.

In preparing the budget ef expense
for the administration of school af

special levy of t.T mill as necessary
to create sufficient funds. The levy as
agreed upon by tbe Board yesterday Is
17 mills higher than tbe levy made for
1910.
The Increase to be asked for, say
member of th Board, I due to two
condition first, the action of the City
Council In passing an ordinance requir
ing all school buildings after January
1, 1911, to be of fireproof construction:
second, the Increase of the teaching
force and higher salaries for teachers.
At a special meeting of tbe Board

The sum of 110.000. set aside for library
use. In co-operation with the Public Li
brary, haa furnished one of the most
successful and satiafactory results ot the
year. Over 15,000 volumes . were pur
chased, the books being carefully and
wisely selected by a member of the li
brary corps. Tbe entire time of six peo
ple and part time ot several others of
the library force was given to the work
during the whole Summer in checking
and registering books and preparing rec
ord cards and other details for circula
tion. The books, arranged as circulating
libraries, hare been used exclusively for
our schools. W acknowledge 'out in
debtedness to the hearty and sympa
thetic Interest and labor of the library
officials, and recommend as an Interest
ing document the report of Miss Wood.
Use head of this department ot the li
brary. Board Needs an Office.
Obliged to vacate the quarters so long
occupied In the City Hall to make room
for a department of civic government,
tbe offices of the school district were
temporarily removed to the TUford build
ing, on Tenth and Morrison streets. A
convenient administration building, suited
to the Increasing business of the district,
is a pressing need. It is earnestly hoped
that the offices of the district may not
long' be without adequate permanent
headquarters.
An urgent request from the teacher
of this district for additional salary, ac
companied by a table of comparative
salaries of the Coast cities and some
Eastern cities of similar conditions, waa
given consideration by the board, with
the result than an Increase of approxi
mately 10 per cent of the present payroll
has been planned for the coming year.
The School of Trades la growing In fa
vor and some departments cannot ac
commodate U who apply for admission.
We believe this Is destined to become
a power for great efficiency in vocational
preparation, end we bone to see Its scop
for usefulness Increased from year to
year. The Atkinson building, now oc
cupied partially by the Trade School,
while It In a way serves the purpose, la
unsulted to Its demands, and a building
that would meet all the requirement of
a purely vocational school should In the
near future be erected on this block,
which is an ideal location.
An ordinance was pssaed by our City
Council on August It. 1910. recralrlng all
school buildings erected after January
1. 1911. to be of fireproof construction.
This will necessitate an Increased appro
priation for building expense. It Is to
be hoped that the ordinance can be ao
amended ss to allow -the buildings al
ready begun to be completed according
to present plans and thus save the dis-

to accommodate the growth at

prudence requlrea that such purchase
be made before expensive Improvement
thereon greatly enhance the price.
The Couch, Failing and Shattuck
buildings are becoming antiquated and
Inadequate and should be replaced with
modern structures at an early date. It
might be wise, even now, since additional
room Is especially needed at Failing, to
consider the purchase of new and more
ample grounds for tha beginning ot a
new building and later to dispose of the
present site, but this Is not Included In
our estimate.
Bonds, amounting to 9350,000, which
were authorised at the special election,
held February 2. 1910, for the erection of
the new Lincoln High School, were sold
on December 16 to the Harris Trust &
Savings Bank, of Chicago, and Morrl
Bros., of this city, at a premium of
94401. These bonds bear 4 per cent In
terest. It will require 9150.000 additional
to made the bulldtng strictly fireproof,
according to the present ordinance. We
have made no arrangement for this
sum In our budget, believing the district
would prefer Issuing additional bonds for
this amount.

recommendation of Francl J. He

yesterday by Attorney Harrison Allen,

Mr. Heney would not deny afterwards
that he refused to recommend the re

would pay hi fine of 910,000, as sug
gested by Attorney Allen, but he said
such a statement at this time would do
him an injustice.
"I argued with Mr. Allen a little a
to the effect of the tines." said Mr.
Heney, "but I did not tell him what I
would do. It Is not fair to quote me
as having said I would oppose a pardon
for Mays, and It would not be proper
for me to say how I stand. The Attorney-General
has asked the prosecuting
officer to make a report, and for hira
