THE MORNING- OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1912. PROPERTY OWNERS OH 7TH PROTEST Interurban Car Franchise Move Meets With Vigor ous Action. ONLY TWO" FAVOR GRANT Prominent Business Men Declare Selves Against Hensner Railway Right on. Valuable Thor oughfare of Portland. That a vigorous protest be made; that legal counsel be employed 11 nec- ' essary to take the matter into the courts, and that every property owner on Seventh street appear, before the City Council, .when it again takes up the question of the granting of the Heusner franchise, was the decision 01 tne u or more members of the Seventh-Street Improvement Association at a meeting held yesterday In the Commercial Club building. Everybody "talked out" in meeting and two speakers Whitney I Boise and C W. Hodson who favored the Interurban, were accused of not repre senting any property on the street, as well as being the representatives of the promoters back of the scheme to get the franchise. Abe Tichner took an active part In the proceedings and put the question which stirred up the ire of Mr. Hodson and Mr. Boise, both of whom insisted that they represented a portion of the property. Chance to Explain Lost- It was explained by one of the speak ers that the City Council had taken the franchise from the street committee be fore the Seventh-street property own ers had. a chance to explain their posi tion and all property owners had been led to believe that they would get a bearing before any action was taken. The sudden action therefore had worked an injustice which all wished to cor rect. ' With retard to the common user clause proposed it was pointed out that under certain conditions all interurban cars could run on Seventh street. J. C. Beck acted as chairman of the meeting and stated that all of the property owners so far as he could learn were opposed to the granting of the franchise. To this statement Mr. Boise took exception, and said he had a petition on which were the names of a number of property owners who favored the project. Abe Tichner then asked the question of Mr. Boise:- "Do you know of anyone who has valuable property on the street who favors the interurban cars on Sev enth? We know who you represent and whv you are here." Mr. Boise proceeded to direct his remarks to Mr. Tlchnor . and assertea that he had a right to be at the meet ing and proposed to voice his senti ments. The chairman then put a motion as to whether the association of Seventh street owners were for or against the Heusner franchise. The vote was al most unanimous, there being only two opposing. The motion was put In the form of being opposed" to the running ,of interurban cars on the street. Theodore B. Wilcox was called for an expression as to- his views. He said: I am opposed to the placing of in terurban cars on the street. Seventh, in my opinion, is the most valuable sroperty in Oregon and is even better than Sixth. For that reason, it would appear to be & ehame to permit this artery to be converted in such uses s proposed. I am ready to stand my share of the cost of the campaign "against the running of interurban cars tin the street." f. John W. Blodgett, millionaire Michi gan lumberman, who recently purchased the City Library building, was called )iipon and he stated that he was in sym pathy with the movement which had .for its object the keeping off the street of the interurban cars. He declared "that he had experience in his Eastern iSpome with just such a condition as is presented here and it worked to the detriment of property. . Elks Also Opposed. f. J. P. Flnley and K. K. Kubli, who .represented the Elks' building, an nounced that the lodge which they rep resented was willing to contribute to 'the cause of keeping the interurban xars off the street. Mr. Finley declared itliat In Los Angeles the experience of business streets with the Interurban was disastrous, for. it universally pre sented quick and efficient city serv ice. "Broadway bridge," said Mr. Finley, ''was built so as to accommodate the traffic In East Portland north of the bridge and if these Interurban cars are permitted to come In and up Seventh street it will destroy Its value as a distributive center for city service. For that reason the approaches to the bridge must be kept open to accommo date this section of Portland." A motion to appoint a committee of five to call upon the City Council and exercise such discretion as it felt necessary in the campaign of opposi tion was passed, and the chair an nounced that he would appoint the members at a later date. O. J. Kaufmann, of the Portland Ho tel: John Haak, owner of the Lowen gart building: T. Scott Brooke, Dan J. Malarkey, E. E. Coovert, represent ing S. Benson, were among the speak ers, and all advocated attending the Council in a body and presenting in most vigorous language possible the sentiment and wishes of the property owners. It was also the sense of the meet ing that the property-owners had no desire to prevent the Heusner line from entering the city and were will ing to assist the promoters of the line provided it was run through the retail district over either of the present standard-gauge systems operating under common-user franchises. " No objection would be made if the proposed line were operated over Seventh to Flanders, thence to the Tenth-street line or the Fourth-street line. It was suggested that if the city would adopt a policy of segregating the interurban and Portland lines there would be avoided in future a conflict in the operation of the two systems. Among those in attendance were: Julius L. Meier, John W. Blodgett, E. Henry Wemme, T. Scott Brooke, E. E. Coovert, J. C. Beck, K. K. Kubli, Charles Wright, J. P.

WORK TO BE STATE-WIDE Joint Session With Vancouver Men to Be Held Soon When Engineer Modjeski Will Give His Views. Dual Celebration Projected. Tentative, plans for a lively cam paign in the interest of the proposed Paclflo Highway bridge across the Co lumbia River between Portland and Vancouver were made -yesterday at the Initial meeting of the bridge campaign committee appointed Tuesday by presi dent Piper of the Commercial Club. The meeting, which was held at the com mercial Club, was attended by all mem bers of the campaign committee ex cepting John F. Logan, who was out of the city. All phases of the work of the future were considered and plans for Immediate action were formulated. The first business of the session was arranging a conference between the Portland committee an the committee representing Vancouver, ni waitii en gineer Ralph Modjeski will be asked to express his views as to. when tne bridge should be started 'in order that it can be finished in time for opening during the San Francisco exposition. This conference will be neia eitner to night or next Tuesday night, the date to be finally settled this morning. Complete Co-operation Planned. The Portland committee members were heartily in favor of co-operatm in every move with the; Vancouver committee. It is the plan to have no merous joint meetings and to have the committees keep an even pace in the promotion of the bridge interests on both sides of the river. . . One of the most important features planned by the committee yesterday was a bridge day" to be held m .fort land and Vancouver some time this Fall. The committee considered this a good plan to arouse public interest in the bridge. The celebration will be held in Portland probably in the morning, with a - programme of speeches and musio and perhaps a pa rade, to be followed by a similar pro gramme in Vancouver. - It is likely that a parade will be formed In Port land and proceed direct to Vancouver. Work to Be State-wide. The committee will undertake the work of organizing a state-wide or ganization to boost for the proposed bridge. This work probably will re quire many months to complete, but it will be one of the most important fea tures of the campaign. To assist in the work of organization a publicity bureau probably will be established- Consideration of the question of finances resulted in the conclusion that enough money can be secured in a short time by members of the commit tee to conduct the campaign. It is not thought that a large amount of money will be necessary. CASEY CLOSE TO HEAVEN DRUNKARD NOW GETS AS MUCH - WHISKY AS HE WANTS. Experiment on Old "Police Offender Agrees With Patient and May Effect Real Cure. James Casey, 62 years old, wchose record on the police dockets in Port land's police station for the past ten years has always been followed by the charge, "drunk," is, in his own opinion, pretty close to heaven. Under the charge of Attorney Roscoe P. Hurst, special agent of Governor West in liquor cases, Casey, has been placed where he can get all the whisky his heart desires. Incidentally, the plan is to cure of the liquor habit the man who ts rated in police circles as the town drunkard." -At his own request, when Attorney Hurst suggested it to him last night. Casey asked to be placed in a llqaor cure Institute. Other reforms of Casey, one through an extended so journ in the country, far -from the source of drinkables, having failed, Casey was willing to try anything new. Hurst, on the principle that one re formed drunkard is worth ten convic tions of saloon men for selling liquor, made the venture on Casey. Relieved of his old clothes, bathed and shaved. In a pair of new ecru pa jamas, tucked, between clean sheets, with his red nose showing in high re lief against the whiteness, Casey was surprised to see a pretty nurse enter the room at the institute, with a drink of whisky in a glass on a tray. Casey marvelled,' then thought he was the subject of .a joke, but finally reached for the glass and drank tne liquor. He Is to be given all the "whisky he desires, so it seems somewhat heaven ly to Casey. But the theory on which the treatment Is based is that, being able to have the liquor at all times, Casey will soon tire of it.

Four petitions have been filed with the County Court requesting the court to order placing on the ballot and submitting to the voters the ques tion whether Intoxicating liquor may be sold in the towns of Carlton. Tm hill. Lafavette and Sheridan. In this -couiux. Th tour xtsUUona axe. sixes d by electors residing in. these towns. In the aggregate about ISO . petitioners have signed the petitions. The County Court ts still giving the question due consideration end has gone so far as to obtain written opin ions of some of -the most prominent law firms in McMlnnville. The court is In doubt as to it being legal for this question to be- placed on the ballot at a general election, or whether it should call & special election for the purpose. The petitioners Intended it to be sub mitted to the voteers at the general election to be held November 5. The conflicting effect of the so-called home rule amendment and the original local option law makes this a difficult ques tion. Yamhill County has been dry territory since July, 1906, and this is the first time this matter or anything like I it has been before the County Court. The Supreme Court of the state has, indirectly, passed upon this ques tion in the cases of State vs. Hearn and State vs. Schluer. Both are cited in the 59 Oregon Reports, pages 227 and 18 respectively. The court will probably take action dn this question before adjourning, but as yet there Is no. way of learning what might be its conclusion. If the question is allowed to go on the bal lot for the coming election it will, as far as the four towns are concerned, become a live issue and perhaps be second to that. of the Presidential se lection. " v ' CLARK SPEAKS AT ECHO BULL MOOSE CANDIDATE ADVO CATES RECLAMATION. . Denunciation of Congressional Dele gation for Letting Money Go Elsewhere Applauded.. ECHO, Or., Oct. 4. (SpeciaU De nouncing in vigorous language the neglect of Oregon's delegation in Con gress properly to look out for the wel fare of Eastern Oregon, particularly in the reclamation projects and water ways on the Columbia and Snake Riv ers, A. E. Clark, of Portland, Roosevelt Progressive candidate for the United States Senate, was loudly applauded during a street address made here to day. . "Nowhere In the country," he de clared, "are there more splendid possi bilities for development than in the western part of Umatilla County. In many parts of the state there are irri gation projects awaiting development by the Government. We are told there are no funds to carry forward this work, and yet about three years ago there was passed without protest by our own Senators and Representatives in Congress a law under which some thing like $7,000,000 was obtained from the sale of public land in Oregon and taken and used by the reclamation service in other states while our exist ing projects drag slowly along to com pletion and no new projects can be commenced for lack of funds. This is a flagrant Injustice against Eastern Oregon. ' "There is no reason why Eastern Oregon should not be given the atten tion it deserves. If elected to the Sen ate, my first consideration will be to prevent further diversion of Oregon funds and the return of the amount already diverted to other states." Mr. Clark advocated the. immediate completion of the Celilo Canal and the prompt improvement of the Snake Riv er and the upper waters of the Colum bia to give water transportation to the Inland Empire. He said he considered this and the question of reclamation among the- most important matters de manding consideration at this tim. Mr. Clark also advocated the elim ination of red tape and unnecessary restrictions in. dealing with the set tlers on public lands. He advocated also the Presidential primary law, the National corrupt practices act and sim ilar popular legislation. f rom jiicno he went to Stanfield, where he gave another address. He later spoke at Hermiston and Umatilla and completed the day with a meeting at The Dalles. RESULTS OF TRIP TOtD Inspector Clement Appears Before Cleveland Grand Jury. CLEVELAND, Oct. 4.

Little "Babe." a pedigreed dog of long ancestry, and a huge automo bile, as principals, and Campbell Mur phy and a flock of 14 more dogs, as actors and supers, pulled off a tragedy on Tenth street today, when the little , canine was crushed as the big machine colled over It, amid the shrieking and yelping and kl-yl-ing of her dos friends. And Mr. Murphy's act at a theater here is sadly crippled because Little Babe was leader of the dog band. The dogs are kept in boxes, and sev eral times a day Mr. Murphy, who owns the outfit, frees his pets and takes them out for exercise. Shortly after noon today he released the whole dog ville and they shouted and cried and barked In their joy at being able to run around the streets.

He will attempt to find the man who killed Ws dog. taally all the mucous mem cranes oi me rxray oecorac diseased. Catarrh is a deep-seated blood disease and must be treated constitutionally; it is beyond the reach of local treatment. Only temporary relief can ever be had from the use of sprays, washes, etc. 6. S. S. cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all impure catarrhal xnattet and at the same time build ing up the entire system. It goes down into the circulation and removes all impurities. Then as pure, nourishing blood circulates through the body, the inflamed membranes heal, all discharges cease A N A
