i Definite announcement to' fhia effect

': Dr. Parrish wos the last candidate to
j file and the only candidate to join the
; race outside the three named origin
al ly as candidates by the recall com
; mittee. City Attorney I.altoche ruled
that yesteraay was the last day for the
; filing of nominating petitions, which
'.s means ihat there will be no other can
" dictates than those now in the race.
" They are H. II. Kennedy for Mayor and
' II. il. Abry, V. A. Deet and Dr. George
I'anish for Commissioners. City At-
torney LaRoche says the filing of peti
- tions must be in accordance with the
'' city charter covering this point. The
charter reuiiirrs filing of nominating
petitions not sooner than 40 days and
the election not later than 20 days prior
to the election.
Hat for intricate and extremely se
rious legal questions appearing at the
last minute yesterday City Auditor
ljarbnr would have issued an official
call this morning for the recall elec-
inr; on October 27. Forms had been
prepared and sent to the printer, when
it developed that in case Mr. rlarbur
expended any money for the recall ar
rangements he might be held person
ally responsible lor the amounts if
the recall was held by the Supreme
; Court to be illegal.
Klection C'nll -Withdrawn.
5 Forthwith he withdrew the official
. call far the election on advice of City
i Attorney La Roche. He will call a
special meeting of the City Commission
I today and put the subject before that
i body. If the members are -willing to
t take the responsibility for expending
money on the recall Mr. Barbur will
' go anead with arrangements. Other
1 wise. ho r-ays, he will wait until
questions involved are settled satis-
factorily.
' George Mason, of the Xon-Partisan
i League. who has conferred with a
number of prominent attorneys who
j have looked into the recall question
; thoroughly, raised the recall questions
! that baited proceeCings. Mr. Mason
1 wrote a letter to City Auditor Barbur
: yesterday notifying him that there Is
a serious question as to the legality
j of the recall and that should he or the
City Commission t:o ahead and call
- and hold a recall election each, or
i the bondsmen, would be held person-
; ally responsible for the expenditures
Injunction Not FeaMible.
: Tt was intended at first to seek an
! injunction against the proposed elec
. tion. It was found that this could not
; be done, but that the city officials
; could be held responsible for any ex-
penditures made for a recall election
T- if 1 1 was determined by the Supreme
I Ctuit that the recall law is illegal. A
; case from Columbia County involving
1 the same question as raised in Port-
land is to be argued before the Su-
pieme Court Saturday.
J City Attorney LaRoche will ask the
I City Commission for authority to go to
K Salem Saturday and appear before the
? court to present Portland's side of . the
case and to urge a decision as soon as
possible. It is believed a decision can
j he !ad in time fcr a recall election to
; be held Octoher 27 if it Is decided a re
( call law exists in the state.
t City Auditor Barbur proposes to put
' tlie entire responsibility up to the Com-
mission. Xo money is available at
present to defray any election costs.
It wouid be illegal. Mr. Barbur says,
f f- r him to expend any money for recall
t arrangements or for an election wlth
! out getting an apropriation from the
: Council.
Amllior In -Worried.
: Mr. Mason in his letter to Mr. Barbur
says:
-I understand from the newspapers
that you contemplate a special election
' on or about October '-'7 in connection
; with the recall of the Mayor and two
; Commissioners. I wish to call your at
: tention to the fact that the legality of
i the recall is. to be adjudicated in the
Supreme Court of the iftnte of Oregon,
the case to be heard on Saturday, Octo
; ber 10.
; "Upon advice of counsel I believe that
; a retail election held at this time would
f be illegal, and 1 am advised it would
cost something like J23.cutf. and should
you expend this money in conection
J- witn that, I wii! hold you, the Coni
J niissioners and their bondsmen person
', allv ivsponsible in case this recall is
. declared illegal and tne money conse-
j q'ler.tiy being improperly spent."
K vpeuilltlire Stir Protest.
"1 am taking this action," saitl Mr.
Mason yesterday, "because I oppose a
recall election b.-ing called under pres
J era conditions. It involves an expendi
'' lure of about $J5.000. Why hoM an
election and expend this amount of
t money when the whole thing is now
1 before the Supreme Court with the
chances strongly in' favor of its being
" illegal?
i "it is not that I and the Non-Tarti-i
nan League are attempting to protect
any o? the officials sought to be re
J called, but it is merely a step to pre-
vent an unwise and probably an illegal
expenditure ol $2".0c0. 1 think a recall
. would clarify conditions, but it would
v not clarify conditions if, after we had
expended $25,000, we should find that
it had allvbeen wasted. I do not believe
t'.ie City Commission or City Auditor
Barbur will take any chance on be
ing held personally responsible for an
expenditure of this kind. I have gone
Into the recall question extensively and
4 1 am informed by some of the best iaw-
yers in the city that It is almost eer
j lain the Supreme Court will rule that
the recall is not in effect because the
tate Legislature has not passed an
mauling act putting the provisions of
the recall amendment to the state con
stitution into effect."
It is said that should City Auditor
Barbur refuse to act in the lecall the
backers of the recall may start manda
mus proceedings. This, it is said, could
be sent straight through to the su
preme Court and could be considered
with the other case Saturday.
Following is a public statement is
sued last night by ex-Mayor Rushlight:
-'Since my name has been so inti
mately identified with the presumably
open office for Mayor in tiie coming
or rather contemplated recall election,
and this notwithstanding that I had
determined not to be a candidate, it
might not be amiss for me to explain
my position.
"I endeavored to prevent the filing of
this recall, first because I believed the
men now in office had hardly had a
sufficient time to demonstrate, to tne
public what they were capable of ac
complishing. Again 1 was opposed to
the recall on account of the unneces
sary public expense which would
naturally result from a special election.
as a city election is close at hand. And
I fully realize the feelings of the al- j
ready overburdened taxpayer, a demon
stration of which was clearly regis
tered in the last special election called
by t!e City Commission. w;:en some 29
measures were all defeated, not because
they were all bad, but because the
voters wished to rebuke this constant
tinkering with the laws and the frivo
lous use of public funds.
Tteea!! Deemed Inopportune.
"Again I felt the recall was inoppor
tune on account of the impending gen
eral election and that the special elec
tion might and would detract from the
interest of the candidates in the field
and might jeopardize the success at the
polls of my esteemed Republican
iricnas, tor whose success 1 am as
much concerned as I could possifcly be
for my own fortunes.
"Being fully convinced, then, that
this recall election is ill-advised. I
have determined not to permit my
name to be used. I cannot, however,
but be more than grateful to hun
dreds of my old friends and support
ers who so consistently tendered me
thetr support and think it proper here
to assure them of my sincere apprecia
tion of their confidence.' - Should the
time come in the future when this
system or plan of government shall re
quire revision or my services either
as a candidate or a supporter shall
be needed I will not' bo found want
ing, ior i desire sincerely the pros
perity and welfare of Portland and all
its people and cannot but hope that
the Republican party, that has so
honored me in the past, will be hon
ored itself in the coming election b'
the election of its entire ticket.
"Trusting that it may be rightfully
understood that I refrained from en
tering this recall campaign because I
did not believe it well for Portland
and tiiat whenever it seems otherwise
to me I will not be wanting, I beg
to remain, truly yours,

slipped away from the school the next
morning and headed for the fair
grounds. He spent the day seeing the
sights and, late in the afternoon,
climbed into the wagon of C. A. Muths.
of Lincoln, and asked that he be cared
for during tl-.e nijiht. With fair com
plexion, blue eyes and a mop of tawny
hair, the boy soon won a place in the
affections of the Lincoln man and his
wife.
Willie said he was lost; that his home
was near Salem, but he did not know
just where. He explained that his
mother died "many years ago" and that
his sisters were in a convent in Port
land. The boy told Mr. Muths the next
day that he did not care much about
going home and that he would like to
remain with him.
Superintendent Hale learned today
that Wrllie was at the Muths' home and
went there for him, but the boy saw
tiie superintendent coming and made a
hasty departure 1 in a southerly direc
tion. Willie was committed from
Portland about a year ago.

COAST WINE "SALES GROW
California Producers Announce Or
ders for 3,0 00,00 0 Gallons.
SAX FRANCISCO, Oct. 7. Activity
in the shipment of California wines to
the Atlantic Coast via the Panama
Canal is noted in the manifests of ves
sels leaving- this port for the Eastern
seaboard and it is said in a statement
published here today that Eastern or
ders for 3,0U0,000 gallons are now being-
filled by this state's producers.
The stimulated demand for the do
mestic wines is due partly to the Euro
pean war, it is said, but largely to the
expected Federal tax on wines, which
it is. believed, would not affect goods
that already had left the wine cellars
after maturing.
DRAFT SURPRISE TO BANK
I'ornier Ashland Painter Has Sts
tern of Kstablishing Credit.
ASHLAND, Or., Oct. 7. (Special.) A
local bank was rather startled this
morning on receipt of a sight -draft for
$8500. This was drawn upon the home
Institution by Dan Mylrea in favor of
the First National Bank of Vallejo,
Cal.
Mylrea is well known here, having
been a former-itinerant painter in these
parts, and has been in trouble across
the border on several occasions. It has
been his custom after drawing such a
draft to request a copy of the same,
which would be exhibited as evidr.net
of abundant credit, against which he
would issue worthless checks.
STATE FAIR HAS SURPLUS
In Spite of Rain, Tvo Days' Profit
of $2000 Is Reported.
SALEM, Or.. Oct. 7. (Special.)
Frank Meredith, secretary" of the State
Fair, announced today that the receipts
of the recent show would more than
pay expenses. He said he thought the
surplus would be nearly $2000.

day ana the day following the pro
ceeds would have been larger than last
year, which established an attendance
record. The attendance Salem day this
year was as lrage as on the same d:.y
last year and almost 33 largo as that
on Portland day last year.
WATER CHANGE IS UP
Proposal Is to Make Charges
Lien Against Property.
DRAFT MADE BY MR. DALY
Commissioners to Discuss Asking
Opinion of Voters on Having
Bills Payable Quarterly and
Exacting Xo Deposits.
The City Commission at a meeting
tomorrow morning will decide den
nitely upon the question of referring
to the voters at the special recall
election, if one Is held, the question
of assessing water rental against the
premises instead of against the occu
pant, and also the question of sub
stituting a quarterly collection for
three months after use instead of
monthly in advance.
The proposed initiative measure was
completed yesterday by Commissioner
Daly and is expected to meet with
a great deal of opposition from prop
erty owners. The ordinance would
make the property owner responsible
for the water bills of his tenants.
The ordinance as proposed would
do away with deposits to guarantee
payment of bills and would reduce the
minimum charge from 75 cents a
month to 50 cents a month.
Following is the f ull , text of the
proposed measure:
Section 1. AH charges for furnlBhlner

chargeable to the premises where water is

At a meeting of the City Commission
tomorrow plans for pruning budget
estimates for 1915 to the minimum will

at the same time as it is considered

Considering the fact that there will

expected the tax levy can be brought
