OREGON EXHIBITS WANTED
Manufacturers Urge That Proposed
Auditorium Have Displays.
Before adjourning Thursday night at
their banquet at the Portland Com
merclal Club, members of the Manufac
turers' Association adopted the follow
ing resolutions relative to the proposed
public auditorium and its uses:
"We favor the establishment In Port
land, preferably in connection with the
Chamber of Commerce or In the new
auditorium, of a permanent 'made-ln-Oregon'
exhibit. We believe It to be
just as much the duty of the "Cham'
ber of Commerce to exhibit the prod
ucts of the factory and the loom as
of the soil and sea.
"We further request the auditorium
commission. In erecting the new audi
torium, to arrange for a conspicuous
place for exhibiting not only the prod
ucts of the farm, but of the factory
and the loom.
"We also express ourselves as favor
able to the immediate establishment of
a permanent exhibit in the Chamber
of Commerce oi tne manuiacrurea
products of the state."

RILEY fJ COMMAND
Acting Captain Will Not Qui
His Post.
MAYOR DESIRES RETENTION
Officer's Feelings Hurt by Iow Mark
Given Him at Kecent Examina
tion, but Chief Slover De
fends His Action.
In spite of the announcement made
to his relief Thursday night that he no
longer would have command of it. Act
ing Police Captain Riley stepped to th
front of the platoon at reporting time
yesterday, remarking aimpiy: x m nere
because I'm here." He was greeted
with annlauaa bv the men. who had
not come to attention.
"It's no secret," said Riley, after the
relief had been dismissed to their beats.
"I am back at the head of my command
at the request of Mayor Rushlight, who
sent for me this morning and asked me
to continue where I was. ' I shall do so
now until my superiors see fit to make
a change."
Riley's announcement that he Intend
ed to quit his command was made be
cause he felt that Chief Slover, In giv
ing him a rating for efficiency at the
recent examination for appointment to
a cuntainev- had shown favoritism by
giving him only 70 per cent while other
candidates were rated at luu ana so.
Riley argued that his holding of tn
rank of captain under a temporary ap
pointment for many months either en
titled him to a higher rating or never
should have been allowed. -
Mayor's Requests Return.
"Mavor Rushllerht asked me why
hart withdrawn and I told him. He ex
pressed surprise that I had been rated
so low. In favor of other men of less
experience. He said ne naa not tua-
cussed the matter with Chief Slover and
was surprised at the Chief's action. He
asked me to continue in my position
and I agreed to do bo.
"The ratines I gave the various can
didates were my personal expression of
the value in which I hold them, saio.
Chief Slover yesterday. "I made them
mvself. without dictation or sugges
tlon from anyone, and based them upon
mv knowledge of the officers. I know
them better than anyone else, and
know their shortcomings. I am not go
ing to disparage any of them In order
to defend my action In giving' others
higher marks.
Riley Popular Witt Men.
All throueh the day Chief Slover pro
fessed to know nothing of Riley's In
tended resignation, and assumed that
the acting captain would step to the
head of his relief as usual, ills conn-
dence was shared by no one else, and
the question of the day arouna nera
nuartera was. who would taie com
mand? Riley kept nis pwn counsel w
the last minute, and his action was
correspondingly dramatic. He is In
high favor with the members of his re
lief, who privately make no. secret of
their disapproval or .tne manner w
which the vacant captaincies have been
handled during the past year.
Np attempt will be made y Mayor
Rushiitrht to make permanent appoint
ments of captains In the police depart
ment before the next regular meeting
of the police committee of the Execu
tive Board, at which the question of
captaincies will come up In the regular
order of business, 'i'ms was me an
