THE BIORXING OREGOXIAX. FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1913. TRUE COMPETITION IS COMPANY'S AIM Lower Rates, Highest Effi ciency in Service, Says Herbert Fleishhacker. "PROMISES TO BE KEPT" One of Principal Backers of w Northwestern Electric Declares (S.OOO.OOO Expenditure Will Be Beginning Only. Comoetition that competes, develop nient of the territory in which they one rate and efficiency of service are three business hobbles of Mortimer Fleishhacker. who with his brother. Herbert Fleishhacker, of San Francisco, are the orinciDal backers of the J.ortn western Electric Company, which Is seeking a franchise from the City Coun cil to enter Portland. Something about the plans for the Northwestern company in Portland were dismissed last night by Mortimer Fleishhacker. who is In the city tor a few days. Mr. Fleishhacker Is staying at the Multnomah Hotel. Mr. Fleishhacker, a dynamic young man who is. perhaps. In his early '40s, but locks young enough to be taken for SO, is president of the Anglo-Cali fornia Trust Company, -of ban Fran cisco, and hi. brother is president of the AukIo & London-Paris National Bank. The two hold the controlling interest in the Great Western Electric Company, the principal competitor or the Pacific Gas & Electric Company, the so-called "power trust" in Cali fornia. ' Promises to Be Kept. "The same policies that we have fol lowed in our California enterprises will be pursued in our operations in Port land and the Northwest." said Mr. Fleishhacker. "We want to give the neoDle of Portland genuine competi tion, lower rates and the highest pos sible efficiency in service, and we are prepared to make good every promise we make. "Our big power plant on the White Salmon River, which will be only the first unit in a system that eventually will generate 100.000 electrical horse power. Is progressing so fast that it will be ready for service by January 1 of next year. It will develop 20,000 horsepower, and most of this current we will use In Portland at once. "We are ready to put 200 men to work constructing our auxiliary steam power plant and distributing system in Portland within a week after the City Council grants us the franchise here. We could put them to work the next day If we could get the men. It will cost us fully $1,000,000 merely to build our plant here. "Within two years after we begin work we expect to spend close to $3,000,000. and that will be only a be ginning of the development we plan for thi city and the territory about it. Power Im Six Months A oared. ' "We will be ready to furnish power to Portland consumers probably within six or nine months after we have be gun work here, though of course It will require longer to develop our plant to Its highest efficiency. We shall em ploy from 600 to 1000 men in this work and all the money will be spent In Portland. "We are confident that the people of Portland want us to come In here. In a city like Portland, with its great un developed resources, there is unlimited room for development and a competing company. "One of the hobbles of my brother and myself, which we have demon strated to be the very best business policy. 1 to use the most up-to-date machlneiy n our plants and to en courage I-- use of labor-saving de vices by our patrons. In this connec tion we have always taken especial Interest In the needs of thei housewife. In our California offices we sell such things as electric heaters, electric stoves, and other conveniences for the housewife practically at cost. We shall do the same thing in Portland, for we have found it to pay as a matter of straight business. All 'ortkwu( la Plan. "Our plans for Portland, however, are only a small part of our plans for the development of the territory we serve In the Northwest. These plans Include the extension of our power wires through the rich, undeveloped country and to the smaller towns along the north bank of the Columbia River. Within five years we expect to have all three of our projected plants on the White Salmon. Klickitat and Lewis Rivers, generating a total of 100,000 horsepower, running at a capacity to supply the needs of this country: Among the associates or tne leisn hackers in the Northwestern Electric Company are Antone Borel, of Antone Borel & Company, bankers, and Wil liam H. Crocker, of the Crocker Na tional Bank, of San Francisco. The Great Western Electric Company in California is now developing a great project on the Feather River, 160 miles from San Francisco, which will have an untiraate power capacity of 600,000 horsepower. Smith, complaining that they had not checked over a paving- remonstrance qwickly enough. He charred them with "standing in with the- grafting paving companies." Finally Mr. Barbur in tervened. The City Auditor said he has re ceived mint complaints since he took office as a public official, and that he hag always given them careiui ana icourteous consideration. uoraon B epiliieis nno iiiwi iiihb undeserved by my deputies." said he. "and I had to put a stop to them. Gordon has been to see me on many different occasions, and I have stood a great deal from him. "The remonstrance was against a gravel bltullthlc pavement on Fremont street, between East Eighth and East Twenty-fourth streets. The time for remonstrance expired today, and Gor don wanted to know why the remon strance had not been checked. It had been checked and found to contain only 27 per cent of legitimate signa tures. A remonstrance to be effective must contain the names of the owners of 60 per cent of the property affected. I explained this to Gordon, but the abuse continued, until I was forced to eject him from' the" office." SUFFRAGISTS TO UNITE GREAT MASS MEETING CALLED FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON. Oaks to Be Scene of Gathering and Noted Speakers Will Be in Attendance.., What is expected to be the greatest eatherins: ever held In Portland of men and women la favor of equal suffrage will assemble at the Oaks park Sunday afternoon. C. E. S. Wood and Sara Bard Ehrgott will deliver addresses and 300 members of the College Equal Suffrage League, under whose auspices the meeting is being given, will attena In a body In their caps and gowns. Members of every suffrage organiza tion in the city have been mvitea 10 attend. Up to the present members of the various organisations have been in the habit of holding their own meetings. but on all sides now it Is beginning to ha recognised that, though there are many advantages In having a number of societies, which will tnus reacn an types of people, it is necessary that the various bodies unite on occasions of Importance. For this reason every man ana woman, whether a member oi any or ganization or not. Is particuuarly re quested to be present, so that the re marks made by some of the opposition as to the scarcity of any but the "few faddists, the paid agitators and the mannish women" may be refuted. The addresses will commence at 4 o'clock from the bandstand and there will be an intermission, during which fine musical programme will be given, v Professor Pels, the popular musical director at the Oaks. Is. giving his assistance in the preparation of the entertainment features. Plans are already under way for a great suffrage parade after the meet ing, which, though not expected to rival that of the New York women, will. nevertheless, give some idea of the number of people who are hoping for a successful issue to the campaign in No. vember. FOREIGN FIRMS ATTRACTED Commercial Concerns May Secure Connections In Portland. During the past few weeks the Chamber of Commerce has received a number of letters from business houses in foreign cities making inquiries about the products of Oregon and the pproxlmate wholesale prices. In every Instance the letters con clude with the statement that with the opening of the Panama Canal it might be possible to open up new business connections on the Pacific Coast. As far as the letters can be traced commercially they are all from firms of financial standing. Columbus Knights Select Boston. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.. Aug. 8.

They bear, the names of the foremost makers in America. They are regarded as the standard by which other instruments are measured the country pver. They have always commanded the highest prices.

Hay- DELAYS GUARDED AGAINST City Council Adopts Resolution De vised to Prevent "Jockeying." . To keep committees of the Council from "jockeying" with proposed ordi nances, petitions or resolutions, an or dinance was introduced in the judiciary committee at its meeting at the City Hall yesterday by Council man Clyde.- This ordinance pro vides that all ordinances referred by the Council to committees must be re ported back to the Council within one month. If this is not done, the ordi nance provides that these proposed or dinances be read in the Council as en grossed ordinances. In support of this new law Council man Clyde said that in the last two years 210 ordinances and other docu ments have been "killed" In committees either by being tabled or Indefinitely postponed. "It is time the thing was stopped," he said. The judiciary committee recommend ed the Clyde ordinance to the Council for passage, but before doing so in serted a clause excepting from its pro- vlslons all franchise ordinances' and matters referred to the City Attorney. Clyde protested that this would be just as bad, as whenever a committee desired to kill an ordinance it could refer it to the City Attorney. "Look at all this junk," said Clyde, holding up a long typewritten list of ordinances "killed" in committees. "The City Attorney would be glad to have It out of his hands."
