Trarks Removed From Ilalsey Street
nd Objection Is Made to Pa-Ins
for HardKurfacliif.
Objections were filed yesterday by
tha Portland Railway. Light A Power
Company agatnat being assessed by
the city I1T7.1 for the company's
share of the Improvement of Kent Ilal
sey street, from the east line of IIol
laday Addition to the west line of Fast
Twenty-second street, the contention
being that the company had removed
Its tracks from tha street before the
work was doAa. The same company
also filed an objection with City Audi
tor Itarbur to being assessed IS1.:
fur tha Improvement of East Twenty
eighth street from Halsey street to
the south line of tha Sullivan's Gulch
bridge, the contention being In that
rase that the company had never laid
any tracks there.
The questions Involved In the as
sessments concerning which the com
pany filed protests are to be fought
out In court, tha Council having au
thorised C'.ty Attorney Oram to bring
suits for that purpose. It Is contended
by the city that the railway company
has no legal right to remove Its trarks
from a street to be Improved, or to
abandon any portion of a street rail
way franchise, without first gettlnz
the consent of the Council.
Instead of getting permission from
the Council, the company simply noti
fied the city engineer of Its Intention
to remove Its tracks, and It Is con
tended by the company that under
the law such notification was suf
ficient-
There has been a number of Instances
In which the company has removed
Its tracks without permission from
tha Council. In order to avoid paying;
street assessments, and the city. In
stead of filing a suit In one Instance
only to test the matter, has authorised
the collection of assessments In all
cases and the appeal to the courts to
force It If necessary.

E SOI and
an ordinance passed by the Council, was
vetoed yesterday afternoon by Mayor
Simon, who recommended that a de
crease be made of at least With
this excopt'on the Mayor lias approved
the various appropriations made by the
Council for this year.
In vetoing the appropriation, the Mayor
explained that the expenses of the atreet
department had grown so rapidly within
Iho last few years that It Is necessnry
to put a limit on them. In his budget,
filed with tha Council on November 19.
the Mayor recommended that the depart
ment bo allowed for this year 1233.566.5
and when It was found that tha assess
ment values were far In excess of what
they were expected to be at the time
the Mayor prepared his budget, he rec
ommended that a material Increase be
allowed, but UOO.OOO ha believes la ex
cessive. 1
Reason for Action Given.
The mayor shows that the possible
revenue for the general fund of the
city, from which the expenses of th
atreet cleaning department are to be
paid, 'a only about S3MM0 more than the
total appropriations already made by
the Council from the fund, and this Is
one of the chief reasons for vetoing the
street cleaning appropriation. The fol
lowing are extrarta from the Mayor's
veto:
"It Is. of course, known to the Council
that there are many Items of expendi
ture arising during the year which can
not well be anticipated, anl that calls
are likely to be made upon the general
fund which ara not foreseen. As stated
In the annual budget filed by me on
November IS. 1910. the engineering de
parttnent and atreet cleaning and sprlnk
ling departments are the largest bene
ficlarlea of the general fund, and any
substantial reduet'on that must be made
from the estimates filed by the different
departments must come from the engl
neertng department and the atreet clean
Ing and sprinkling department.
"A very substantial reduction has been
made In the estimate of the engineering
department and a reduction of t9&a0
haa been made from the estimate of the
atreet cleaning and sprinkling depart
ment. but I think that the appropriation
of W"V In the ordinance under con
slderatlon should be still further re
duced to the extent of KS-OvO or more, as
herein suggested.
Expense) Increase Shown.
"For the Information of the Council,
I beg to submit the following tall
which shows the Increase In operating
expenses from 1W8 to 1!M Inclusive. In

"The Council will observe 'from the
comparative statement given that the
expense of operating and maintaining
the street cleaning and sprinkling de
partment hss year by year steadily in
creased, until It has now reached almost
phenomenal proportions: that for the
year 1903 the appropriation was less than
144,000, and now It la sought to appro
priate for the year 1911 loOO.OM.
"I think I am fully warranted In say
ing that no one connected with the city
government would advocate dispensing
with th elmportant and sanitary work
performed by the street cleaning and
sprinkling department, yet It does seem
to me that there la a limit beyond which
the expendlturea of that department
should not be permitted to go. I firmly
believe that with rare and the exercise
of economy the appropriation In question
could safely be reduced to the extent
of CSkOOO or more and that efficient and
satisfactory service could still be maintained."

Csoen Already Has Been Decided,
nd Declines to Listen to
More Argument.
So far as the Circuit Court of Mult

an effort was made Dy rt. it. uuiu tj.
attorney for Klernan. to arg-ae a new
phase of the case before circuit juuge
McGinn yesterday forenoon, the Judge
promptly threw the case out of court
without the formality of hearing; argu
ments. Mr. Dunlway appeared In court with
an armful of law books and when Judge
McGinn asked him how long It would
take him to present his arguments, the
lawyer said an hour would be re
quired. "It Isn't going to take a minute,
replied Judge McGinn tersely, and he
straightway put the case out of court,
holding that the Klernan objectlona
had already been decided by Circuit
Court and Supreme Court.
The aubject came up in the form of
a motion by the City Attorney to
strike out Klernan'a aupplemental com
plaint. After Klernan'a Injunction pro
ceedlnga against the city were dis
posed of by the Supreme Court, a new
suit was filed, largely similar to the
original complaint. The city Immedi
ately demurred to that complaint and
Judge Morrow refused to Issue a sec
ond temporary order restraining the
city from disposing of the bridge bonds.
It waa then that Klernan. through hla
attorney, filed a aupplemental com
plaint, which waa the occasion of yea
terdny'a brief proceedings.
'Hasn't this whole matter been
threshed out and decided by the Su
preme Court?" Judge McGinn Inquired
of Mr. Dunlway when court convened.
Dunlway began an explanation, but
before he had finished a single sentence
the court Interrupted him.
You hsven't any business oomlng Into

Ginn. "It haa all been decided. I will
allow the city's motion to atrlka out
the supplemental complaint and also
sustain the city's demurrer to the origi

Attorney Dunlway. without a word.

FROM FATHER O'HARA
Takes Exceptions to Oregonlan's
Comment on Bacon and Zoroaster
PORTLAND. Jan. 31. (To the Editor.)
In The Oreronlan of last Sunday there ap
peared an editorial on Francis Bacon In
which wer contained many things of be
wildering Interest. For Instance, w get
fine view of the dogmatism of the un
believer when we read In that editorial:
"The prayers of a thousand centuries have
brought down not a single substantial
gift. This Is high doctrine to preach from
the editorial page of a great newspaper and
will doubtteas prove an important moral
tonic for young and old. When their
minds are overwrought with cares and their
consciences troubled by the memory of
wilful misdeeds and there comes upon them
sns of the emptiness of everything that
their "human intelligence" has been intent
upon money, power, pleasure and pres
tige they will remember that the prayers
of a thousand centuries have been storming
the heavens in vain and of course, being
men of Intelligence, they will put the re
volver to their brain. Why not? The
father of this republic held a different view.
In bis farewell address George Washington
wrote: "Keason and experience both forbid
us to expect that National morality will pre
vail In the exclusion of the religious prin
ciple," But I am not concerned here with the
blasphemous absurdity of the above state
ment regarding the utility of prayer, nor
with the ludicrous suggestion that those
who banish prayer from their lives are en
gaged In "building the kingdom of God."
I write to take issue on the alleged teach
ing of the "theologians of the century be
fore Iante" which, according to the edi
torial referred to. It was the great glory
of Bacon to have driven from the fleJd of
philosophy. We read: "The theologians
of the centuries before Pante had seized
upon Aristotle's notion that matter and
form made up the unlveree. They had
grafted upon It the Zoroaatrlan princi
ple that good and evil powers are at war
for the control of the world." Thus Aristo
tle's "perverted philosophy mingled with
Zoroaatrlan superstition bframe mediaeval
Christianity." The umption of easy fa
miliarity with the "theologians of the cen
turies before Dante" In the above passage
la really charming. It Is turned off aa
lightly as a reference to the Elizabethan
dramatists or the Victorian novelists. The
only comment which la possible to one who
happens to be acquainted with the "theo- ,
Inglans of the centuries before Dante" Is
that the charge brought against them of 1
mingling ZnroawTrlan dualism with Arleto- 1

tellaa hylomorphlsm Is simply and wholly
untrue and unfounded.
There Is no difficulty in determining the
facts. The theologians were unacquainted
with Aristotle's metaphysical works until
the very century of Dante's birth. The ques
tion Is therefore confined to the great theo
logians of the thirteenth century Albert
the Great. Bonaventure and Thomaa of
Aquin. The fundamental principles of all
of these and I may add of the Catholic
Church for the 12 centuries before them
and for all the centuries that may coma
after them Is the direct antithesis of Zo
roastrianlsm. Omne ens est bonum is their
formula and slgnlnes that God has made
all thlnss. that everything which God has
made Is good. Christian ascstlsm Is as far
removed from Zoroastrlanlsm aa la Chris
tian theology.
In conclusion I Would say that there are
a fair number of things which can be placed
to Bacon's credit without Invoking his op
position to a philosophy which never ex
isted. FATHER O'HARA.
It is pleasant to hear from our old
friend and critic again. As to prayer.
The Oregonlan had no purpose to dis
cuss or deny its efficacy,, or to say
anything more than it said, incidental
to a discussion of quite a different
subject that prayer had brought down
nothing substantial "from the sky"
which phrase, by the way. Father
O'Hara neglected to Include in Tils
quotation. If Father O'Hara will cite
a " specific instance of the kind
to which The uregonian oisunci
ly referred, he will get the sub
ject on debatable ground. As to Aris
totle, the theologians had a disturbed
notion of his philosophy long before
th. cen-turv of Dante's birth and this
nr.. vhut Racon disliked. As Father
O'Hara says, the facts are easily acces
sihle. Anybody who can read may
look them up.
BRUTALITY TALES DENIED
Women Say Conditions at Centralia

TArwvrA. Jan. 31. The stories of
brutality circulated regarding; the
