'reparatory to continuing an lnvestl- tlon of the police and civil service airs of the two years dating1 back m July 1 of this year. Civil Service mmlssioners Clark and Caldwell yes- uh. v lBHUtni Li mil: im w 1 auio a w s vu u rest of Police Captain Keller and bert Armstrong, brother of ex-Com- issioner A. P. Armstrong. Both men ill be required to appear before the i W . niffkt ? -in lock to explain why they failed to - 1 1 nr.j. I lnandlng their appearance before the mmlesion Wednesday night. They ill also be required to explain their nnectton with certain alleged mta allngs In civil service examinations In addition to the bench warrants. hnAnsi vprA laRued for a number of olice officials, including Captain Slo er. ex-Acting Chief, and invitations ere sent to ex-Mayor Rushlight and Georire McCord, Mr. Rushlight's rmer private secretary, to appear at tie meeting and defend themselves gainst allegations which have been lade against them. An Invitation also 111 be sent to A. P. Armstrong, giving ,im the privilege of making the same Investigation Will Extend. That the investigation, which re- : i J Wl- tesday, will extend much farther han originally had been anticipated Is he declaration of Civil Service Com missioner Caldwell, who said yesterday that he and Mr. Clark intended to go to the bottom of the whole police sit uation. Let the chips fall where they may," said Commissioner Caldwell, "we are going to get at the bottom of the whole affair. If there are men on the police force now who secured their positions or promotions through unfair or Im proper procedure, they are to be found out. "I believe we have the proposition In band so that we can get at the facts, and from the looks of things now there will be some very tangible results from our investigation. The city charter provides for competitive Civil Service examinations for all positions and pro vides that the best men shall receive the positions. In every case where this rule has been violated In any manner I believe we will ascertain the facts and will see that corrections are made." Among cases which will be Investi gated, In addition to those already brought out. are those in which ex- i'Ollce LBpiaia - Sergeant Cole were discharged from the service. Reports of political frameups" in both cases have been received.- It Is said also that the Inves tigations of other cases of a similar nature will be taken up and the facts ascertained. McCord Promises to Talk. . George McCord said yesterday that he will accept the invitation of the Commission to appear and tell his con nection with the alleged misdealings. Ex-Mayor Rushlight could not be reached by telephone yesterday, and it is not known whether he will accept the invitation or not. Police Captain Keller faces a serious charge In connection with having failed to answer the subpena served on him Wednesday morning, as does also Rob ert Armstrong, who is said to have ignored the summons. Keller says he had an important engagement at the Moose Lodge and could not attend. This is considered no excuse by Commis sioner Caldwell. Armstrong. It Is said, passed the summons off with a laugh, refusing to respond. Inasmuch as the Civil Service Com mission has the power to demand the presence of witnesses the same as any court in the state, both men are sub ject to penalty for contempt. Mayor Albee announced yesterday that he has nothing whatever to do with the Investigation which is being made, the whole proposition having been undertaken by the Civil Service Commissioners on their own initiative.

Improvement of the Columbia River is the theme to which the Progressive Business Men's League is dev6tlng Itself In addresses at Its weekly lunch eons at the Multnomah Hotel.

Ill his remarks yesterday Mr. Jack son went Into the history of the open ing of the Columbia River. He told of the millions the Government had spent for deepening the channel at the In stigation of politicians and the rail roads, and Bald that If a portion of that money were evailable now it would more than cover the present needs.

HOW many oyster cocktails can the average newsboy hold? If J. M. Larson knew, he would also know Just how many oyster cocktails he lost last night But as he had neglected to check up his stock and has no statis tics as to the capacity of the little headline shouters, he must reckon his loss In round numbers, and In future take better care to tie his horse than he did last night. Larson peddles oyster cocktails over a route to regular customers, and, as he explained at the police station last night, he finds It necessary for the good of tho business to cultivate the acquaintance of his patrons. He went Into a place at Second and Burnside streets to deliver an order and remained to do a little cultivating. In the mean time his horse, left unsecured, walked off. Harbor Patrolman Powell found the horse at Second and Morrison streets, with a half dozen newsboys perched on the wagon. Not one of them would have dared to look an oyster cocktail In the face. They said the hcrse was a runaway and that they had stopped It. Patrolman Powell and the owner of the horse, wagon and cocktails reached the police station simultaneously, where Mr. Larson explained that In his business It Is impracticable to comply with the ordinance requiring horses to be secured when left standing on the street. The officer entered a charge of violation of the ordinance and the vender of oyster cocktails produced ball to guarantee his appearance before Jud?e Stevenson this morning. "You must use some kind of an an chor after this when you stop to Irri gate I mean cultivate your custom ers," said Patrolman Powell, dropping easily into nautical language. Powell was not on regular duty when he re lieved the newsboys of their prize. FARM EXPERT VISITS BEND Professor Shaw to Talk to Ranchers . , of Central Oregon. Professor Thomas Shaw, agricultural expert of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific Railways, who Is on a lecture tour of the Northwest, has gone to Bend, where he will pass a few days with farmers and stockmen of that locality.

He declares .that the combination dairy and beef cow will solve the meat problem which is be coming serious in the United States.
