J. E. Werleln. representing: the com
pany, devlurfd that the published state
ments might nt be true. He deplored
the char made by the Kast Side rep
resentatives to the members of the com
mittee, who were In session to start an
Investigation as to the valuation of pro
posed franchises for the company.
Mr. Werleln said he knew nothing of
the statements published In the Mall,
and Intimated that he felt the report
nil;ht have been made by a reporter in
the course of a day's work- Mr. Kella
her corrected this, however, by assuring-
Mr. Wrrleln and the members of
the committee that the statements were
paid advertising; and therefore must be
correct, a the company was trying: to
place fact before London Investors, to
whom It was offering bends.
JotMrlyi Kef siaew tat r meat.
The advertisement details the hold
ings of the company. In el ud In a f ran
chlses. Its power plants and lines and
streetcar traces, and arlves Information
tnat nitffht be valuable to prospective
bond Investors.
B. S- Josselyn, president of the com
pany, when Informed of the Kellaher
Itu-iilcnt. iU that he hnd not receive!
from Mr. Werleln any statement about
what trnj.rd at the street com
mittee mectinsr and that he would await
further Information before ma kin a;
any statement. The committee session i
luted until b o'clmk.
W. H. KltsireruM and K. O. Hector
were te only members of the street
committee present at the meeting yes
terday. K. K. Kubll belns; absent. They
heard the statements tf Messrs. Kella-
her and 1-epper for tne Kast Side clubs
and Mr. erlln for the company ami
then announced that they will hold
further sessions and Investigate every
phase of the rase tfore making any
recommendations to the Kzecutive
Hoard as to valuations of the various
franchises, all t which are contained
In the ordinance now before the com
mit t.e. '
Kare Reswlattosi Barred.
Mr. Werleln told the committee that
Under no circumstances wll the com -pany
accent any franchise with a
clause irvt-itli'til'v reculutlng fares, al
though he said he wanted It distinctly
understxd that ita statement was not
tn any way a threat or an attempt to
intimidate.
Kar from wishing to Intimidate or
to threaten." said Mr Werleln. "we
would Klut'ly lo an tiling we coold
honoratly to serve tlie people by the
vibration of rars over tracks to be
built by authoi isation of these fran
chises. But our word has been given
to the bond buers that the maximum
fare Is & cent and that It will not be
less, and we cannot now say to the
buyers of those bonds that we have
got to make an amendment to the con
ditions stipulated to them. We cannot
do that and we will not do II, as a
matter of principle."
"The fare-revitlating feature has
ben falsely raised." continued Mr.
erl In. Another thing, the public
has been badly corfused as to the
enttre subject, as It has gone out that
this is a blanket franchise. Il does
not begin to be a blanket; it has not
t.im least blanket frature..as when It
hrjt started there were but two main
lines Induced. These were the andy
Hoiilevard anil Milwaukt. street. Oth
er vers a.ideii. so tnat now the ordi
nance does not rrsemhle its first ap
pearance any more titan doee night re
semble da.
t'eaapaay !
-We wotiM he glad to operate the
Hue specified In these franchises, but.
if we fall to get hese franchises, after
doing everything that we honorably
can do. the company will not lose a
rent. The people must ride and they
will use our cars, anyway. Hence, why
s'tuuU this regulation of fares cut
much figure at this time and under
tMese circumstances?"
Mr. Werleln pointed out that the
stockholders had long been pouring
their money Into the extension and
Improvements of the. comrany without
returns on their investments, and do
ll; c so without a murmur, lie said that
tne company had been continuing this
for years, hoping that some time the
Increase In the expense of Operation
and maintenance would cease: but that
it has cot ceased.
Mr. Lepper replied that he would re
gard It as an injustice for the stock
holders to build new exten.-lons and
n.ake such long hauls. If they fur
mshrd the money, but that they do
not.
t'alraeaa la Uaraf toaea.
The people, said Mr. Lepper. have
to put up the money to build extensions,
lay tne ties and track to connect with
the company's lines and guarantee the
company an Income before the cars
will be operated. He said he did not
resard this as fair: but Mr. Werleln
said tiiat ho did. as the people wsnt the
new extensions largely for speculative
value In realty being rut on the
market.
Messrs. Kellaher and Lepper also
asked the committee to consider the
question of transfers to Kast Side pas-
aengers who have business to transact
before crossing the river. Mr. Kella- I
br said that he believed It would be
reasonable to give passengers who
wish to stop off to pay their water
rent or similar business a transfer
good for from 30 minutes to an hour.
When Mr. Werlein remarked that MT.
Kellaher would like to have the com
pany give unlln-.lted stop-overs, Mr.
Kellaher replied that be did not ask
for unlimited stops, but only a rea
sor.atle proposition for the relief of the
many thousands jo are now forced to
SHOW DISCREPANCY
pay two fares to g:et to the West Side
In case they have business to which
they must first given attention on the
Kast HMe.

"I resrard this as the most Import
ant subject ever coming1 before this
committee," said Mr. Fitzjcerald. chair
man of the street committee, -and will
say now that it will be the policy of
the members to jrlve much considera
tion to these franchises. Of course, our
Jurisdiction Is limited, but we will
make a fuil Investigation before mak
ing: any recommendations.
Mr. Kellaher loaned to the commit
tee a ropy of the London Mall carrying
the company's advertisement and a
copy of the report complied by an ex
pert accountant from the quarterly
earnlnars, reports of the company filed
last year. A friend of his. said Mr.
Kellaher. while visit fna; London, read
the advertisement and sent him a clipping-
of it. ile then wrote for 2& copies
which he had distributed about tile
city for Information of those interested
in the franchise now under consider
ation. FAREWELL IS PLANNED

National Republican Leader
Invites Talk on Planks.
OREGON DELEGATES REPLY
Hubert It, McCormick, or Illinois,
I'rges ProConvcntlon Debate on
Questions That Should Come I'p
In Chicago Skeptics Balk.
Oregon's delegates to the Republi
can National convention have received
personal letters from Robert H. Mc
Cormick, delegate to the same con
vention from the Ninth Illinois Con
gressional district, inviting a corres
pondence for a discussion of planks
that should be Incorporated In the party
platform, candidates for the Presidency
and Vice-Presidency and measures that
properly should come before the con
vention.. Mr. McCormick is believed
here to be a brother of Medill Mc
Cormick, of the National organization
that is conducting the candidacy of ex
1'resident Roosevelt.
Answering the McCormick letter,
Thomas McCusker, of this city, one of
the ten delegates from this state,
wrote that although his personal choice
for President was Senator La Kollette,
whose campaign McCusker conducted
in this state, the delegates were all
elected at large and were pledged to
support the ex-President for nomina
tion as President as long as he bad a
chance to win. In this connection, Mr.
McCusker also pointed out that his
personal choice. La Follette. in the
Oregon primary election received a plu
rality of the ltepubllcun votes cast for
President In the Third Congressional
district, although Roosevelt carried the
state.
MeCvsker Makes Sosrgestlosis.
On this subject. Mr. McCusker also
wrote that should Roosevelt receive
the nomination at the Chicago conven
tion, he was doubtful If the ex-Presl-dent
could be elected.
Mr. McCusker suggested that the con
vention In the platform to be adopted
should Include declarations for Presi
dential primaries in all states and the
elimination of the convention plan en.
tlrelv. a law by Congress providing
for the financing of Presidential cam
paigns by the Government after the
candidate has been nominated, and
prohibiting the contribution of funds
by trusts and corporations In the can
didacy of any candidate for the Presi
dency. It was also suggested by Mr. Mc
Cusker In his letter that the Republican
Nationnl convention should adopt a
resolution Indorsing the measure re
cently enacted by Congress and pro
viding for direct election of United
States Senators. Before this constitu
tional amendment becomes effective It
must be adopted by the voters of two
thirds of the states.
Larimer ""triage" Sospeeted.
One of the other delegates from this
state, suspecting that McCormick was
a member of the "Lorlmer crowd," re
plied to the Chicago man's letter with
a brief but pointed answer.
In It the delegate Informed Mr. Mc
Cormick bluntly that the Oregon dele
gation was unequivocally committed to
Roosevelt and that McCormick need
not think that "he and his bunch can
count us out."
OR. H1NS0N TO SEEK AID
ASSISTANT PASTOK TO BE EM
PLOYED AT WHITE TEMPLE.
Advisory Hoard of Church Author
ises MinlMcr to Find His Own
Helper Membership Grows.
The 'White Temple Is to have an as
sistant pastor as soon aa Dr. Walter B.
Hlnson finds a suitable man and re
ports back to the church. At a meet
ing of the church body last night the
report of the advisory board, formerly
known as the prudential committee,
was received and unanimously adopt
ed. The board reported that the rela
tions between the pastor and the
church were most satisfactory and rec
ommended that the pastor be author
ised to find a man suitable to act as
his assistant.
No mention was made last night as
to the salary which would be paid, but
the advisory board members. In dis
cussing the question at a previous
meeting, are said to aave considered
from 11500 to $2000 sufficient. Dr. Hln
son receives $5000 a year. Dr. J. Whlt
comb Brougher. his predecessor, re
reived S4000 and had an assistant. Rev.
John Benson, at S1S00 a year.
The present membership of the 'White
Temple Is 1SO0. It waa 1200 two years
ago. when Dr. Hinson took . charge.
More than 400 members have been
added, as some have moved away and
removed their membership during the
two year.
During the last year Dr. Hlnson has
delivered many lectures outside Port
land, in addition to his church work.
The question was taken, np by tbe ad
visory board whether It should relieve
htm of some of this outside work or
provide for him an assistant. The lat
ter course was chosen.
