SCHOOLS TO COST
$3,099,200 III 1913
Taxpayers' League Suggests
- Levy and Bond Issue to
Supply Treasury.
BUILDING STANDARD URGED
Fireproof Structures Recommended
' From Economical Standpoint.
Taxation Said to Increase
Faster Than Population.
A levy of five mills for maintenance
of school properties and a bond issue
sufficient to provide for permanent Im
provements, such as new buildings and
trrounds. was recommended by. vv. a.
Ayer. who .represented the Taxpayers"
League In an Informal conference of
taxpayers with the School Board of
Portland, held last mgnt on invitation
of the board. The purpose or the meet'
lng was to look over the budget for
the coming year, which is to De orougni
before the people at the school meet
lnir December 27.
The budget calls for 18.099.200, the
proportion of which to be raised by
tax levy or bond issue, or both, being
$2,333,200.
Mr. Ayer said he believed that the
School Board should establish now
precedent of raising the funds for
maintenance of the school property by
tax levy and that the cost of all new
nrooertles and improvements should
be met by bond issue. He suggested
sii per cent bonds with a term of 80
years, to be. Issued in denominations as
low as $100, so that they couia De soia
by popular subscription.
Bond Issue Favored.
"I believe It Is right that the cost of
maintenance should be met by tax
levy as the demand arises," he said.
"and that the burden of paying for
improvements should be distributed by
bonding upon the generations that are
to profit by them.
J. V. Beach favored a bond issue of
$1,000,000 and a five and one-half mill
tax levy.
Those who attended the meeting de
Glared themselves as favoring the
school board In the plans for the com
ing year and did not oppose the budg
et, the only points of difference being
as to what proportion ol the needed
amount should be met by tax levy and
what by bond issue.
W. F. Woodward spoke warnlngly
against plans for a large bond issue,
saying that he believed the people will
oppose any large issue of bonds at the
election. He read a comparative table
of taxes in Multnomah County In the
past ten years, which was supplied
him by Henry E. Reed, showing that
the proportionate increase in taxation
has been more rapid than the Increase
of population.
Building Standard Urged.
F. W. Mulkey recommended a bond
issue for new Improvements and in
speaking upon this subject urged that
the board abandon any policy in build
lng except a fixed policy of establish
lng fireproof structures, declaring that
he believed this eventually would prove
the more economical.
Those who attended the meeting, be
sides the members of the board, were:
W. B. Ayer. W. F. Woodward,- Henry
E. Reed. J. H. Haak. L. Allen Lewis, H.
H. Northup, W. I Boise, F. W. Mul
key, I. Lang, Edward Ehrman, F. H.

CLUB COMMITTEE REPORTS
Attacks Upon X. M. C. A- Declared
Unwarranted toy Investigators.
A special committee of the Portland
Commercial Club, to which the local
vice situation wu referred, with C. C
Colt as chairman, has prepared the fol
lowing resolutions:
Whereat, the Young- Men's Christian Asso
ciation of Portland hie been the object of a
xnallcloua and unwarranted attack by the
Portland News, and
Wbereaa, ve believe that untruthful and
vlcloua atatament, auch aa have been pub
lished, reflect not only upon the object of
their attack, but alao upon the good name
of Portland, aa welL
Therefore be It resolved, that the Portland
Commercial Club, through lta Board of Gov
ernor!, express lta confidence In the Young
.Men's Christian Association as an Institu
tion which Is. and always has been, deserving-
of the support of each and all of our
citizens, and the further belief that the
work which la being; done by the Young
Hen's Christian Association la worthy the
respect and praise of every right thinking
person. And further ne It resolved, that the Port
land Commercial Clb does deplore and con-
demit all untruthful and vile statements
which have blamed the Young- Men's Chris
tian Association as an organization for the
recent developments of crime In our city.
CHANUKKAH IS OBSERVED
Jewish Folk to Celebrate Feast of
Dedication for Eight Days.
Chanukkah, the Jewish Feast of
dedication begun last night and was
alebrated by the Hebrew race sjl over
will be given In celebration of the feast
at tbe Temple Beth Israel tomorrow
the world. Special mnslc and a sermon
evening, and the children will have
special services on Sunday, at the
Temple Beth Israel In the morning; at
10:30 o'clock and at the synagogue on
Sixth and Hall streets in the after
noon. To a large extent the feast has come
to be considered a children's festival.
It lasts for eight days.
The historical background of the
celebration is found in the fact that
In tbe year 165 B. C. Judas Maccabeus
re-dedicated the Temple at Jerusalem
after its pollution by Antlochus
Eplphanes, who had set up a shrine to
his heathen god. Just three years after
this pollution, on the 25th day of the
month of Klsley, the temple was re
claimed and re-dedicated to the service
of God.
Around the festival cluster many
beautiful legends, one of which is to
the effect that when the temple was re
dedlcated only a single cruse of oil
was found unpolluted. Through the
miraculous intervention of God, this oil
proved to be sufficient for burning for
eight successive nights. For this rea
son, to this day. Jews light candles in
their homes in celebration of Chanuk
kah for eight successive nights.
There is a theory that even before
Chanukkah the feast had been observed
by Jews as the beginning of the
Winter solstice, and that its origin Is
common with that of the Christian
Christmas and the Roman Saturnalia
which occur at about the same season.
PUBLICITY PLAN IS HUGE
exposi-xiou iwrrATiox to
REACH CIVILIZED- WORM).
New Tork Director Says 500 Cliati
tauquas Will Be Reached With
Picture Accompaniment.
"A personal Invitation to every man
In the civilized world to attend the
Panama-Pacific International Exposi
tion" Is the slogan adopted by Fred
erick Vinlng Fisher, of New York, man
ager of the bureau of lectures of the
gigantic San Francisco Exposition of
1915, who was a Portland visitor yes
terday. Mr. Fisher's publicity campaign is to
be by far the most comprehensive ever
attempted for an international exposi
tion or any other event. He plans to
reach practically every man in the civ
ilized world through a publicity propa.
ganda Involving schools, business
men's clubs, woman's clubs, and the
general publlo at chautauquas and
illustrated lectures in hails throughout
the cities of the world.
"During the coming year we expect
to reach BOO Chautauqua, or many mil
lions of people," says Mr. Fisher. "A
staff of about 25 of the most able men
In the country will spread the exposi
tion doctrine over this oountry from
the lecture platform, while each big
foreign country will be handled in
much the same manner. Lectures will
be accompanied. by pictures. Including
Government motion picture films of the
Panama Canal. A man starts in the
morning in the student body of the
school, addresses the business man at
his olub at noon, meets the women at
the club later in the day, and the gen
eral publlo at the Illustrated lecture at
night.
"This is a new line of exposition
publicity. This was attempted in be
half of the St. Louis Exposition, but
only after it had started. However, thef
results were so noticeable that trie ban
Francisco people wisely adopted it as
one of the greatest methods of attract
ing the eyes of the world to their city
in 1915."
Mr. Fisher met with the Northwest
Chautauqua managers at the Mult
nomah Hotel yesterday and secured
their indorsement. The managers
passed a resolution permitting the
coming exposition to be represented at
every Chautauqua In the Northwest
during the coming season.
ROELFS HEIRS ARE LOCATED
Executors of Will Tell of Trip to
England and Ireland.
The story of their trio to New Tork
and Maine and the further visit of one
of them to England. Ireland and Scot
land in search of heirs to property left
by Mary Roelfs, who died in Portland
March 19, 1912, leaving an estate ol
J80.000, is told by Joseph Woerndle,
attorney, and Rev. Father E. P. Mur
phy, executors of the will. In a report
filed yesterday with the iroDate uourc.
Mrs. Roelfs left 310.000 m trust, Jiiwo
In cash and a little real property to
Fred Roelfs. aged 72, her husband, and
many smaller bequest so I cash and per-
sonal belongings to various Oregon
friends and Institutions. She directed
that the residue of her estate go to the
sisters of Thomas Jackson; her second
husband, and to her cousins. These
former relatives were rather indef
initely described In the will, and It be
came necessary for the executors to go
to the Atlantic seaboard and for Mr.
Woerndle to continue his trip to the
British Isles.
It was necessary for Mr. woerndle,
while In Great Britain, to examine birth
and death records in Liverpool and
Glasgow and at Athlon. Ireland, from
which the Jackson family came orig
inally. In some cases it was found that
church records had been destroyed by
fire or otherwise, and In some instances
deaths, apparently unknown to Mrs.
Roelfs when she executed ner will.
were discovered to have occurred.
The executors state that, despite a
gloomy outlook, they have succeeded in
locating all the rightful heirs and will
be able to distribute the estate exactly
as Intended by the testatrix.
TEMPLE PERE MAN OF NOTE
Son of Original "Mikado" Himself
Author and Composer.
Though not known generally to the
Portland theater-going public, and par
ticularly to those who enjoyed the
antics of the "president of the Repub
lic" in "The Rose of Panama," at the
Helllg, this city housed, up to an early
hour this morning, the offspring of one
of stagedom's most prominent and
popular of comedians of a time. This
was Richard Temple, son of the late
Richard Temple, for long a member
of the Savoy Company, of London, and
this selfsame man originated the roles
of the "Mikado" in "The Mikado," "Dick
Dead Eye" in "Pinafore" and "Pirate
King" in The Pirates or renzance.
Young Temple, or the man wno didn't
want to be president for life of a re
public, in addition to being a finished
actor, is alao an author and composer
of no mean ability. Recently he com
pleted a romantic comic opera, founded
on Dumas' "Three Musketeers." He is
also at work now on a musical "version
of Mark Twain's "Yankee in King Ar
thur's Court," In which Roger Gray, the
reporter in "The Rose of Panama." and
one of the hits of the show, will be
starred.

the hope that It will be completed
early in the new year. In addition to
this we will improve the main line
along the Columbia, in accordance with
the policy previously adopted. This
will Include straightening the line in
every place where this is practicable
and eliminating curves. We will put In

"While these improvements are in
tended to Improve our roadway to the

here to Spokane as good as any other.
It will be a few miles shorter."
Mr. Farrell announced further that
the proposed new union passenger ter
minal at Spokane was the subject of
extended conferences In New Tork
while he was there and that the plans
and specifications for the structure
now have been agreed upon by the
various interested roads. Architects

MALHEUR MINES ATTRACT
Good Assays and Important Deals
. Attract Attention.
VALE, Or., Dec 4. (Special.) Nu
merous reports of rich gold strikes in
the vicinity of Malheur City, which
were at first treated lightly, now are
causing considerable excitement In this
section. When D. K. Worsham, F. L.
Johnson and other large mine owners
from Malheur came to Vale last week
with rocks weighing from two to 10
pounds and with gold in them visible
to the naked eye, with Government as
says which showed exceptionally well,
the authenticity of their claims was
admitted.
For many years Malheur City has
been a great gold producing country,
supporting such mines as the Oolden
Eagle, Red White and Blue, Black
Eagle and others, but owing to difficul
ties which have Involved lawsuits they
have been closed for several seasons.
Last week George H. Bodflsh sold his
holdings to Dr. S. D. Taylor, of Vale,
for 25,000. Claude Worsham bonded
his holdings in the same locality for
$100,000 to Baker people.
FRICTION AT COUNCIL MEET
Hood River Aldermen Clash on Time
for Advertising Bids.
HOOD RIVER, OrTDec 4. (Special.)
More friction has been created be
tween Councllmen of Hood River be
cause of the differences of opinion over
the proposed municipal water system,
bids for the installation of which are
now being advertised for, than from
any other source for the last five years.
Monday night tbe wrath of Coun
cilman A. C Staten was aroused be
cause of the determination of his fellow-officers
to advertise for bids for
18 days Instead of the period of 30 days.
Mr. Staten declared that it was a mat
ter on which the prospective contract
ors for the work should be allowed de
termination. However, he alone voted
against the resolution calling for the
18-day period of advertisement. The
bids on the $90,000 job will be opened
by the Board of Aldermen Monday
evening, December 23.
