WATCH OVER

Dr. Calvin S. White Drafts In
spection Measure to Bar
Bad Carcasses.
PRICES MAY NOT CHANGE
Official of Cltlr Following Sime
'. Act Say Increase In Cost Should
Xot Ensno City or Govern
mrnt Seal Demanded.
' A mcisuK which. If passed by the
City Health Hoard and the City Coun
cil will provide for strict Inspection of
all meat which conies to the Portland
market. drafted yesterday by Dr.
'alvln f White and will be considered
hy the Health Board at a ireclal nieet
lnc within the next few da- T..
.measure w ill be backed l.y Dr. V hlte
nd many others who deciare that the
present system of mat tn.pectlon Is
las and aa a result much Impure and
diseased meat reaches the consumer.
To offset the alienations of several
butchers and commission men that the
measure will require an Increase In the
price of meat. L't. White has telegrams
from Spokane. Seattle and Salt Lake
City, where similar meat Inspection Is
required denyinit that price-raising Is
entailed Telcprrnms were sent by Dr.
White Tuesilay askinic If the ordinance
In the other cities was successful and
If the price of meat was Increased. Dr.
J. B. Anderson, of Spokane; Dr. J. K.
Crichton. of Seattle, and Dr. O. F.
Spracue. of" Salt Lake, all replied by
teletcraph that the Inspection had
caused no Increase In price and that
the system waa successful.
Salaried laapoetora Provided.
The measure as drafted by Dr. White
provides for a chief Inspector of meats
and an assistant, the former at a sal
ary of ll-'a a month and the latter at
$100 a month, provision Is made for
a number of other Inspectors at l0 a
month to he appointed by the City
Board of Health as needed.
All slauKhter-houses where the Gov
ernment does not keep an Inspector
will be visited by the city Inspectors
and all meals will be examined care
fully. Kvery carcass placed -on the
market must bear the stamp of the
Oovernment or the city Inspectors. In
districts where farmers do thetr own
siaujrhtertna; notice must be given ths
Board f Health of the days on which
kllllna; Is to be done. City Inspectors
will make ante-mortem and post-mortem
examinations of the animals, and.
If they are found In healthy condition,
will stamp them. Kach carcass, when
sent to the market, must have the
heart, kidneys, liver and tunics Intact,
and no meat will be allowed to be
transported In waon without covers.
Dr. White says conditions In the meat
supply at present aro bad because of
the lack of a general Inspection sys
tem. The trouble Is not In the well-established
slaughter-houses." said Dr.
White, "as much as It Is In some of
the farming; districts. I am Informed
that oftentimes when a hog- or a herd
of heirs becomes sick with cholera the
farmer will kill them and ship the
meat to the market. Cattle are often
Improperly slaughtered and much meat
Is said to be tainted. Several slauKh-ter-bouses
are said to be unsanitary.
I am Informed also that calves and
plsrs are purchased a few days after
birth and are Immediately slaughtered
and placed on the market. This Is a
serious offense. In my opinion, and I
think It should be stopped. The In
spection system will bring .this to an
end. I believe,"
Ths proposed ordinance Includes, be
sides ths Inspection of animals, the In
spection of slaughter-houses and meat
markets to see that after carcasses re
ceive the stamp of the city or the Oov
ernment they ara bandied properly by
the dealers. In transporting cAreasaes
from the slaurhter-houses to the mar
ket covered wagons must be used. A
white covering also must be provided
for the meat to keep It from dust.
Lave May Art aa riab.
Right of the city to regulate slaughter-houses
outside the city may enter
Into tbe discussion of the meal-Inspection
measure at the special meeting
of the Health Board. It Is believed
the ordinance can be enforced out
side the city by prohibiting the Impor
tation of any meat which does not bear
the city or the Government seal. It is
said the dealers can refuse the city
Inspectors admission to their slaughter
bouses, but In so doing will make It
Impossible for them to send any meat
to any city market.
It is probable that the Health Board
will make changes In the measure as
drafted and that City Attorney Grant
will be asked to make a final draft to
conform strictly to the city charter.
When the Health Board adopts the
measure It .will g before tbe City
Council, where, undoubtedly. It will be
passed by unanimous vote.
The Mayor has declared himself In
favor of the measure, and the ordinance
will become effective soon after it Is
pasaed by the Council. Inasmuch as It
will contain an emergency clause. A
penalty of from S10 to li la provided
for every violation of the meat-Inspection
law. or the general rules which
the Inspectors ara given authority t
draft.

SKETCH BT HARRISON FISHER r
FORBES
BT LEOSTJ OASS.BAER.
SOMEONE someghere. sometime ac
credited to Harrison Fisher ths
saying that he couldn't paint a
picture of a girl whose mouth turned
down at the corners. Naturally, then,
when I met Mary Elisabeth Forbes, ths
original of some dozen or so pictures
he has made. I looked to aes If her
mouth turned up or down. And It
turns way up with widening little
tucked-ln dimples that keep spreading
out Just like ripples do when a wave
breaks on a smooth surface of a
stream.
Mary Elisabeth Is decidedly a beauty,
with great big gray eyes, dark-lashed,
and a wonderful lot of really-all-her-own
hair, ash blonde in color and worn
Just like It Is In the -Mistletoe Pic
ture" Mr. Fisher made of her. She Is
playing here this week with "The Vlr
glnlsn." In the part of tha little school
teacher, and It waa In between acta
that I found her ready to chat for a
few mlnutee.
"Mr. Klsher saw me In New Tork
one evening when I was playing with
Miss Russell In 'Wildfire.-" said Miss
Forbes. "He had been searching for a
model to pose for his Christmas cover
design on the Saturday Evening Post,
and while he had In mind exactly the
subject he needed, he had not yet run
across the type. In one part of the
play the exigencies of the 'business'
called for me to throw back my head
and clasp my hands as If in ecstasy.
Mr. Fisher was sitting in the front
row and. as ha told me afterward, ha
said as soon as I took the attitude.
That's the girl for my picture.' Ths
next day an offer came from him ask
ing ma to pose. For a while I hesitated,
not that I wasn't crazy about being
painted by Mr. Fisher, whose art Is so
well known, but becausej I doubted
whether I'd ever on earth be able to
sit quiet long enough to bput on can
vas. Poalag Foaaa Easy.
"Really you'd be surprised, when fin
ally I began the sittings, how easy It
all was. Mr. Fisher Is a worker and
I never said a word, like a perfectly
good child, unless I was spoken to. He
works rapidly. In water colors, and fin
ished each part as he took it up. For
Instance, the day he made my nose "
here Mary Elizabeth crinkled up that
saucy feature "he began it and fin
ished it every bit. In the some way
he made all my features, finishing
every one before he began on another.
Mr. Fisher doesn't 'block In" his draw
ing after the manner of most artists.
He Just stsrts to work and paints every
bit as he goes along. Just as If In
building a house you'd put In all the
doors, then all the windows and finish
every individual speck as you go along.
When Mary Elizabeth paused long
ONLY NEEDY TO GET AID
APPLICANTS FOR CITY WORK
MUST PROVE WORTHINESS.
Certificate From Botchera and Gro
cers to Bo Required Before Work
Will Be Provided.
To make sure that only men with
families in destitute circumstances re
ceive regular employment on the Mount
Tsbor boulevard under the 119.000 ap
propriation, each man after Monday
will be required to present along with
his application for work a statement
j from his buter and grocer that he
, needs the work and that he has a
I family to support. This plan waa de
vised yesterday artexnoon wnen 11 waa
learned that In the list of men em
ployed since last Friday there have
ben many undeserving.
The sytem up to last night was to
grant every applicant a place In the
city's employ upon his statement that
be was a man of family and needed
the work. This practice led to many
abuses and It Is said the gang of 4v0
men now at work Is largely composed
cf single men of the hobo class.
Tbe Intention of those who obtained
the city's appropriation waa to furnish
work exclusively to the deserving men
of families. Conditions were found so
tad that work was given all applicants
List Frldsy snd Saturday and Tuesday.
Or.ly the men who said they had fami
nes were given employment Wednes
day. This gang will be kept at work
until Saturday night. Monday the new
system will be Introduced. The ap
plicants will be required to report at
tbe Municipal Free Employment Bureau
and present letters from their butcher

OR WHICH MART ELIZABETH
POSED.
enough for a full-sized breath, I told
her that this Interview wss not to be
all about Harrison Fisher's method of
painting, but rather about his loveli
est model.
"O dear, how can you say such
things?" faltered the girl, whose like
ness adorns ths room of every boy or
girl who ever went to college. "If I
dreamed I looked In the remotest de
gree like the pictures Mr. Fisher has
Idealised from my features. I'd be the
happiest girl In the world."
Naturally, then it was up to me to
point out to Mary Elizabeth that she
waa the very "spit an' Image." as they
say down South, of the be-au-ti-ful
drawings that have been made of her.
She's quite a sensible girl Is this tall
athletic sometime model, and says that
while she doesn't mind being known
as the original of Harrison Fisher's
posters, she doeen't want It to be her
only claim to recognition. Believe me.
It won't be.
Climb to Success Steady.
That girl has had a steady climb
ever since she accidentally stumbled
against the flrst rung of the ladder of
success down In Honolulu, when she
was a little maid. She had gone there
with her mother's sister, Edith Chap
man, and the letter's husband, James
NellJ, well-known Pacific Coast actors.
These two had a stock organization In
Honolulu and In an emergency one
evening Mary Elizabeth .was rushed on
to fill a vacancy. The "rush" became
a habit one she didn't care to break
and when they all came back to San
Francisco, Miss Forbes waa put on at
the California Theater as utility wo
man. Next she was sent by Mr. Nelll
a-starring In "Barbara Freltchle."
playing in Portland in her tour at the
old Marquam Grand. Following that
season she went abroad on a pleasure
Jaunt with Mr. and Mrs. Nelll, and
coming back to New Tork "started out
to look for Jobs the same aa If I'd
had no pleasant sailing." she charao
teristically puts it.
For two years she was leading wo
man with Lawrence DOrsay In "The
Earl of Pawtucket." then for two
years with that matinee hero, James
K. Hackett. In 'The Walls of Jeri
cho" she played in the same company
with Mary Mannerlng. the actor's then
wife, and Beatrice Beckley, the Eng
lish woman, whom he married recent
ly. Next she came out with E. M. Hol
land In "The House of a Thousand
Candles," and then for one season was
Lillian Russell's leading woman. In
"Wildfire." she came to the old Co
lumbia four years ago and later, the
next season. In fact, she was leading
woman with "The Man from Home."
playing also at the old Columbia. Last
season Miss Forbes waa In the East
ern company as the leading woman In
"Alias Jimmy Valentine."
and grocer. Each man who Is consid
ered worthy will receive a tag entitling
him to employment aa long as the
110.000 appropriation lasts.
Arrangements will be made to have
one or two days a week open to all
classes of labor. This arrangement
will furnish steady work for. the needy
and will give a few dollars to all others
every week. It Is believed the pres
ent appropriation will not be exhausted
until March under the new system.
The County Court has been having
difficulty in getting men to take the
Jobs created by a recent appropriation
for the benefit of the unemployed. Tem
porary camps have been established at
Rocky Point and the Multnomah Coun
ty Farm but no men have been will
ing to accept the positions at SI a day
and board. The county positions have
been open to married men exclusively
and care has been exercised by the
County Commissioners to give work
only to the needy.
A gang of 11 men was detailed yes
terday morning to the rock quarry
near the Rivervlew Cemetery where
clearing work Is to be done. These
will be paid tl-50 a day. It being pos
sible for them to return to the city by
streetcar and therefore unnecessary for
the county to board them. The county
still has work for about 40 men.
Sewer extensions and -extensions of
city water mains will be begun this
morning snd work furnished to many
nnemnloved. Several big sewer con
tracts let by the Executive Board last
Thursday will be started Monday and
will furnish still more employment.
General extensions in the Water De
partment are to be begun at once. Many
miles of trenches are to be dug and
hundreds of laborers will be needed.

SUGGESTS
F
OF DRAFTS
Charter Committee of Nine Ap
pointed by Mayor Is Rec
ommendation. PLAN BITTERLY OPPOSED
Wood Short Charter Almost Sore to
, Go on Ballot and at Best Peo
ple Face Three Different
Proposals foe Vote.
Appointment of a committee of nine,
with Mayor Rushlight as chairman,
to arrange for a fusion of the four
charter drafts on commission form of
government, so that but one draft shall
be placed on the ballot at the elec
tion, was the recommendation settled
upon yesterday by the committee ap
pointed from the City Council to take
preliminary steps In the solution of the
charter problem that confronts it.
The committee will recommend that
three of the nine be appointed from
the official Charter Commission, three
from the people's commission, and
three from the Council.
The meeting of the committee yes
terday afternoon consumed several
hours, while supporters of the differ
ent charter drafts aagued before them
the merits of their favorite documents.
Councilman Joy finally put an end to
the discussion by pointing out that
ths committee had nothing to do with
the acceptance or rejection of any of
the charter drafts, but was merely
there to make some plan for reducing
the number of charter drafts to be
placed on the ballot
Baker Favors Fwalow.
George L. Baker, chairman of the
committee, favored fusion of the dif
ferent drafts Into one charter provid
ing for commission form, with which
should be placed on the ballots, as an
alternative vote, a revised form of the
existing charter of the City of Port
land. This Idea was strenuously ob
jected to by Dan Kellaher, president of
the East Side Business Men's Club,
who attended the meeting in behalf of
the people's commission, and by W. C.
Benbow, who had appeared before the
committee to submit a copy of his short
charter draft. Both Mr. Kellaher and
Mr. Benbow believed that the charter
providing for commission form of gov
ernment should alone be placed on the
ballot .
A. D. Crldge spoke In lavor 01 m

whatever might be the action of the
imn the nonncll. he would
not bind himself that the Wood char
ter would not be riiea as an iniuu

changed frpm what It has been since
the alBSOIUllOn VI wio ywv a
slon. There Is every probability that
the Wood charter may be filed aa an
initiative measure, and Mr. Baker s
suggestion of putting the present city
cnaner " ...-
against commission form was approvea
by many of the members of the com
mittee. If this should do aone u
would mean at least three charter
rirafta to come up for a vote at once.
while, as Mr. Baker pointed out. it Is
perfectly possible for anyone wno is
not satisfied with the final draft sub
mitted officially from the Council to
have the Benbow draft or either of the
other drafts entered on the bauot Dy
Initiative.
Members of the committee over
which Mr. Baker presided yesterday
are Councilmen Montag, SchmeeV, Joy
