IXrrctors Oppose) Civil Service.
On tha whole tha directors are Inclined
to believe that the taxpayers' meetlne;
should be done away with, that contracts
should be -riven to the lowest rvaponslbla
bidder and that the annual budxet
sho ild be advertised two weeks In sa
ve nee of the tau-.paer" meetln-f. They
are unalterably opposed to the ae.ectloa
of tree be rs and prlaclpala by civil serf'
Ice rulesi They ray that they will wel
come stricter provisions to prevent any
member of tha Board or employe from
belra- In any way interest. M In a school
contract If such can be formulated, but
declare that there la no necessity tor re
form in that connection.
I. N. Flelschner yesterday brVfiy dls-cu-xed
each of the Ilaak resolutions. Ha
1.4 -
The taxpayers meetlne Is antiquated
and useless. I am willing that member
of the Board of Kducation shall b elect
ed annually. 1 acre that contract
should be let to the lowest reeponetbl
hl.i.l-r-, quality being taken Into consid
eration. That Is done now when the sum

flit me I certainly brll-ve that the
b'il"t f.r the ensuinc year should o
published tn th rewnpap-r for two
weeks In advance of th taxpayer' meet
ing." Twelve .Mem her- Too Many.
-Am tn nuking th boundaries of th
city and the school district Identical,
w have a great deal of valuable prop
arty new outside th rtty limits and L
for on, would not feel Justified In re
llnqut.hlng control of It. Twelve mem
ber of th Board of Kducatlon would
make that body altogether loo cumber
sou. I hav surgested that th .Ar
chitectural Association of th city
present th names of 13 or IS archi
tects and that th board select a differ
ent on to upervta the construction
of ea-b new school building. This Is
as far as I would be Inclined to go In
that direction, as th competltlv plan
sstem ba proved unsatisfactory and
has already dragged th Board of
Education Into th courts.
"If w had civil service rules It
would be difficult to obtain the dis
charge of Incompetent teachere. As It
I now. th good teacher are elected
from year to year and hav no fear of
losing their positions. I would suggest
that th County Auditor or the City
Auditor, not th grand Jury, which Is
mad up of a miscellaneous lot of cltl
sens. b empowered to audit th
board's books. Th grand Jury Is real
ly th prosecuting attorney, and In ad
dition It seldom la composed of men
competent to audit an Intricate set of
bocks."
Meeting Called Safeguard.
It. t Sabln said he could see no par
ticular advantage In narrowing th
limits of th school district to those
of the city. He believed that a body of
five men could give better service than
on of 12. Speaking ot th taxpayers'
meeting h said:
"The abolition of this meeting I an
open queetlon. The recommendations
of th board are Invariably adopted. It
iMmi only right that th board should
lix th tax levy, but this meeting pro
vides a safeguard In case any attempt
ever I mad to take arbitrary artlon.
I do not favor the election of th mem
ber of th Board of Education at th
earn tun as city officials, for the rea
son that politics might creep Into
school questions. I can pee no advan
tage to be gained by allowing compe
tition of school plans. A to civil gere
lc rules. I do not believe that the
Board ot Education ever haa laid Itself
open to the charge of persecuting
teacher. The competent teachers
would nut benefit, and It would be
difficult to obtain th resignations of
poor teachers.
To publish In a report each and
every Item of money spent would make
th report altogether too voluminous.
Any taxpayer has th right to secure
detail of expenditures by applying at
th clerk'a ofnve. 1 can see no neces
sity for prohibiting any member ot th
Board from being Interested la a con
tract. 1 do not believe that any mem
ber of th Board haa ever, directly on
Indirectly, reaped a cent's worth of
benefit. It would b better to hav
tie County Auditor examine th books.
II and his subordinate are compe
tent. They could be obligated to re
veal to the grand Jury any errors which
might be dlecevered.
Larger Board OppowU.
M. C Campbell said he thought that
the limits of the school district should
be extended to Includ th whole coun
ty, that 13 men on th Board from
different sections of th city would
ep-n th way to district Jealousies la
addition to providing a body more cum
bersome than the present one. and that
th taxpavers meeting should be abol
ished. He referred to Wednesday
night meeting as "farrtra! and dls-
ra-ef ll II opposed th Introduction
of civil servlc rulea for th same rea
son as Mr. oabla and Mr. i'letsrhner.
adding that tbey had failed in Chicago
and tan Francisco, and ba could se
no advantage In adopting tn com
petltlv plana system. H agreed with
th Civic Council commute a to th
wisdom of publishing th tax budget
tn advance of th taxpayers meeting.
but thought that th County Auditor
would bo th proper person to nav
charge of th auditing of th school
account.
Th views of J. V. Beach wr sim

Campbell and Mr. fa bin. Mr. Beach,
however, said he did not car to go

CITY'S DUTY TO INSURE
County's Contention Regarding
Bridge Raises New Issue.
Whether th county or th city Is to
pay the cost of Insuring th approaches
to th Haathorne-aveoue bridge la at
Issue. The County Commissioner hav
decided that as th city own th bridge
the county might hav some difficulty In
collecting the Insurance It th approaches
suffer from fir.
The subject has not been presented to
the Council In a,formal way. but members
of the Executive Board have heard of th
position taken by the county and hav
Informally talked about It. Some ot th
members of the Executive Board ex
pressed the opinion that th county
should pay for too Insurance of the
bridge, as It has been th custom with
other bridges. Th genejal agreement
between th city and the county was
that the city should construct the bridge
and that th county should maintain
them. Whether th Insurance Is to be a
part of th maintenance Is a question
Involved.
How much th approaches ar to b
Insured for Is a question to be deter
mined after It la decided -who shall pay
for th Insuranc. A formal letter Is to
be addressed by th County Commission
er to th city In a few days. In which
will b set out th arguments in favor
of payment by th city.

All five admitted that they had lent

ing thew had simply helped him out
of pure generosity and because Pow

COX KILLS FILMS
Jeff-Johnson Fight Pictures
May Not Be Shown.
THEATER MEN NOTIFIED
Action of Tollce Department Based
on Oregon Statute, Which For
bids SIkAWiic Scenes Embody.
Ins Commission of Crime.
Movlng-plctures of the Jeffries-John
son fight, at Reno last July, will not be
presented in this city, according to an
order issued yesterday by Chief of Po
lice Cox. The action was taken upon
the receipt of a handbill snnouncing the
presentation of the celebrated "$200.
000" pictures at the Bungalow .Theater,
for three days, beginning next Sunday
at 11 o'clock.
Immediately upon learning of the in
tention to show the pictures here. Chief
Cox directed Captain Baty to send an
officer to the theater to serve notice
that the show would not be tolerated.
George I. Baker and Manager Seamen
were notified accordingly. ,
The action of th Chief Is based upon
an Oregon statute which forbids the
presentation on the stag of scenes em
bodying the commission of crimes. It
wa last Invoked In May when George
Sontag was prevented from showing
pictures purporting to represent the bat
tles of the Sontag-Evans affair in California.
Th officials of the theater say that
they have no connection with the pre
sentation of th fight pictures, the thea
ter being leased by the concessionaire
who purchased the picture rights from
the pugilists.
Shortly after trie rignt took place me
question of allowing the pictures p be
shown was made isationaj. and xne of
ficials of one municipality after another,
from coast to roast, took a stand against
them. At that time Chief of Police Cox
was not certain what bis attitude would
be.
There was woe among the pugilistic
fans yesterday when the news spread
abroad that the films would not be tol
erated here. Many who missed tha trip
to Reno were counting upon partial con
solation In seeing the pictures when
they came here, and their hopes are
now shattered. It is believed that the
three, days' presentation, running con
tinuously from 11 o'clock A. M. until
late at night, would have reaped a har
vest unsurpassed by any recent attrac
tion.
The Chief of Police says that his de
termination in the case is unshakable if
the law upholds him, and is positive in
his announcement that the picture will
not be shown.
LAND TRADE IS PROPOSED
ConrKy May Refuse to Make Change
of Sycamore Gravel Pit.
Although 1C acres of rocky land are
offered to Multnomah County for Its
Sycamore gravel pit. which contains
only 13 acres. It Is believed the tender
will be refused by the County Commissioners.
W. II- Grlndstaff. owner of a cliff J
just opposite the Sycamore gravel pit
owned by the county oft Foster road, is
snxious to trade his property to the
county and give four acres to boot. Mr.
Grlndstaff says his holding is just as
valuable to the county for road work
as the gravel pit now in use, but Road
Supervisor Chapman contends that the
transfer would not be fair to the
county, the four additional acres not
making up the deficiency between the
quality of rock owned by the county
and that held by Mr. Grlndstaff.
Another inspection of the cliff will be
msrie before the County Commissioners
announce their decision to accept or re
ject Mr. Grindstaff's proposal.
