GO-OPERATION WITH
RAIL LINES URGED
Mr. Booth Points Out Need of
Working in Harmony to
Develop Country.

Senatorial Candidate.
ELECTION NEWS WII,r. NOT BE
GIVEN OUT BI TKLEJHOXE.
As the oregronian's entire telephone
service will be needed tonlffht in
gathering returns from the 23 city
precincts, it will be impossible to
give out news of the recall election
from this office. The public Is re
quested not to call up The Oregonlan
for this purpose. No visitors will be
admitted to The Oregonlan election
department where the returns will be
received and prepared. An edition of
The Oregonlan containing the results
as far as the count has progressed
will be on the streets at 10:80 o'clock
tonight.
""If there la anything: that we need
more than any other in this country'
Bald Robert A. Booth, before the Port
land Transportation Club yesterday,
"it is that the producing classes and
the railroads meet on the common
ground of partnership."
Mr. Booth did not speak in the in
terests of his candidacy for the United
States Senate, but as a patron of trans
portation lines and as a former rail
road employe. He made a determined
and convincing plea for a closer co
operation between the railroads and
the people. He declared that every
farmer, every worklngman and every
merchant should feel that he Is a part
ner with the railroads in the develop
ment of the country, and emphasized
v that this feeling should be shared and
reciprocated in by tne railroads.
Own Experiences Related.
He related his own experiences as a
railroad employe and recalled with
pride the fact that at one time he
served as agent for the old Oregon &
California for the "stupendous" sum
of $10 a month.
"About the hardest work I ever did,"
he said, "was to try to persuade Mr.
Koehler to pay me $15, but 1 failed,
and I guess he thought I wasn't worth
it." Mr. Koehler, to whom he referred,
is Richard Koehler, at that time the
general manager of the Oregon & Cali
fornia, now the Southern Pacific, and
who recently retired at the age of 70
years as purchasing agent of the O.-W.
R. & N. Company.
Mr. Booth expressed his firm belief
in the principle that no development
can be accomplished unless the rail
roads are successful in their business
and their employes and those depend
ent upon them are prosperous.
"Roads Barometers of Business."
"As they are the arteries of trade,"
he said, "they are likewise the barom
eters of business. They take out the
forest and agricultural products of our
state and bring in what we need from
other states."
Pointing to the fact that the country
in general cannot prosper without the
railroads, Mr. Booth expressed his hope
that a stable condition of business may
be established. He declared that all
economio and political questions 60on
resolve themselves into a bread-and-butter
issue.
"On November 3 and on every other
election day," he advised, "it is well to
vote for your bread and butter, not
only for yours but for every working
man's and that of your employers.
Hope for fair Dealing Held.
"We have heard a great deal in re
cent years about the square deal, jus
tice and fairness and I believe we are
rapidly approaching the time when all
functions of the Government will be
done on a fafir business basis. I believe
all business will be done on & fair
basis.
"The railroads of the country are en
titled to a fair and, I dare say, a lib
eral rate of return on their investment.
AU employes of the railroads, from
the president down to the man who
sweeps the yards, are entitled to the
highest reasonable wage.
"If the laboring man and every other
man -who works for wages is well paid,
our" country will prosper. The farmer
who sells grain, the stockman who
sells meat and the merchant who sells
clothing all will feel the beneficial
effects.
"Kvery farmer who turns a furrow,
every man who owns a black-faced
sheep or a white-faced cow and every
woodsman who handles an ax or a saw
in the forest ought to belong to you
as partners. I hope soon to see this
spirit of fraternity and brotherhood
extend and permeate the entire com
mercial and social fabric of our coun
try." Roads Responsible for Distrust.
In discussing more particularly the
present stagnant condition of trans
portation development, he declared that
the railroads themselves were largely
responsible for the distrust entertained
by the people.
"There was a time." he asserted,
"when the railroads did not charge for
the investments they had actually
made, when they sought to charge on
investments that did not exist.
"Now this was just as wrong as it
would be for a farmer to charge for
two bushels of wheat when he had
sold but one, or for a lumber manufac
turer to charge for 2000 feet when he
. sold but lOOfl.
"So the feeling of the publlo towards
the railroads grew into a prejudice
against them. But I believe that this
attitude has gone too far. It is time
now to look towards the 'railroads as
institutions engaged in an honorable
business, entitled to continue thefr
business at a profit.
"Wsterwayi Must Be Used."
"But the time is passed when activ
ity in the transportation world must
be limited to rail lines. We must take
advantage of our rivers and our nat
ural waterways and permit them to be
used In carrying on our commerce."
Mr. Booth declared that co-ooeration.
rather than competition, is the life of
trade.
He appealed for a spirit of harmony
among employers and employes, a unity
of purpose and a brotherhood of
humanity working for a common good.
Thus, he concluded, the country and
Its institutions will thrive and grow
and prosper.
Judge William. M. Colvlg, tax and
right of way agent for the Southern
Pacific Company, presided. He fol
lowed Mr. Booth's address with an elo
quent descriptive oration on the beau
ties of Oregon scenery and urged the
', railroads to bestir themselves more to
bring tourists to the state so that these
scenic advantages may be made to re
turn a profit to the people of Oregon.
PERIL IN SAMPLE BALLOT
District Attorney Warns That Dis
tribution for Votes Is Illegal.
District Attorney Evans has advised
County Clerk Coffey that it will
be a lvolation of the election law
for persons interested in various can
didates or measures to have sample
ballots printed upon which the advo
cacy of certain men or amendments
may be printed or otherwise indicated.
The decision is in response to Mr. Cof
fey's request for advice on the subject.
It also will be illegal, it is held, for
Mr. Coffey to supply quantities of sam
ple ballots to any persons who will use
them to Influence voters.
It is pointed out by Mr. Evans that
it is against the law for an elector to
take with him into the election booth
a sample ballot to which stickers of any
nature advising the voting for any
measure or candidate have been at
tached or which has been printed with
advice to voters. One may, however.
take with him a sample ballot he has
marked for himself, but he may not
take anything into the booth with him
but the sample.
District Attorney Evans intimated
that the grand jury will take up, today,
the case of a man accused of illegal
registration, in that he is said to have
been in the state but two days when he
registered at the. Courthouse.

Portland German. En Route to Visit
TTncie in Europe, I Captured.
Taken by force from the ship on
which he was heading for Germany to
visit an uncle there and escorted an a
prisoner of war to. Aldershot, Eng
land, was the experience, of Theodore
Metz, a prominent business man of
Washougal, Wash. as related on a
post card received in Portland yester
day by his friend, -Martin G. Budel,
editor of the Nachrichten. Mr. Metz
did not take trouble to take out papers
establishing- his identity as an Ameri
can citizen before leaving: and his arrest
was the result.
The English evidently believed that
Meta was a reservist going back to
fight for his country, in spite of his
expressed intention of visiting an uncle.

"The facta are," he says, "that most
of our young friends have gone, are

He concludes:
"Although it Is a terrible affair for

come now, for if it had not ft is cer
tain that Germany would have gone
over France like a steam roller and
then she and Austria might have
beaten Russia."

finding Income lessened, olans retrenchment
for the coming year.
WHO WILL PAY BILL?
Mr. Daly Would Hold. Property
Owner for Water Rates.
REJECTED PLAN IS REVIVED
Commissioner's Pica Is That Cost of
Billing Could Be Eliminated, but
It Is Shown This Expense
- Was Added Recently.
Who shall be responsible for the
water bills In Portland, the tenant who
uses the water or the person who
owns the property occupied by the
tenant?
This is the principal point in the
water measure to be voted on today
at the special election.
If the measure carries the present
system of sending out bills and col
lecting water rental by. the month, in
advance, from the tenant who uses the
water, will be abolished. In its stead
will be & system of Bending out bills
at the end of each quarter for water
used during the preceding three months
and the bill will be against the
premises instead of against the tenant.
Property owners are opposed to the
measure on the ground that it, is un
just and unfair legislation. It Is con
tended that it is no more right that
they should be forced to pay the bills
for the water used by delinquent
tenants than that they should have
to pay the grocery and meat bills of
tne tenants.
Tenants Oppose Change.
It Is contended that the plan would
necessitate an increase in the rental
of houses to cover the amount of the
water service or the exacting of a
deposit from the tenant to guarantee
payment of the water bin. Without
one of these plans the property owner
or landlord would have no recourse in
case a tenant moved out leaving a
water bill of three months due and un
paid. Many tenants therefore are
joining with property owners In op
posing the 'measure. If the property
owner refuses to pay the bill for the
water used by the tenant the water
will be shut off until the bill is paid in
full.
The same plan in a different form
was before the City Commission last
uecjmoer and was defeated after a
full investigation and hearing. Not
satisfied with the decision of the Coun
cil, Commissioner Daly has brought the
subject to the vote of the people. It
is not, however, in the same form as
It was before the Council. There are
added some meaningless provisions
which would appear to mean the re
duction of water bills but which in
reality would not alter the rates ex
cepting in cases of water users who
are served through meters.
Redaction In Help Aim.
Should the measure pass the metered
service would get lower rates should
the amount of water used run under
the number of gallons allowed for 75
cents. In few cases. It is said, would
this occur, as the amount of water
allowed for the minimum of 50 cents
is small.
The only point Commissioner Daly
argues in favor of tha measure is that
it would reduce the cost of operating
the Water Department. The reduction
would be in the reduced number of
bills sent out. It Is figured that under
the monthly billing system 700,300 bills
are sent out each year. Under the
quarterly system the bills would num
ber about 200,000 a year. Up to two
years ago no bills were sent out and
the saving was much greater than will
be brought about by the quarterly bill
ing system. Commissioner Daly has ad
mitted that there is no need of sending
out bills to flat rate users, who number
three-fourths of the water users of the
city. By merely abolishing the billing
system which Commissioner Daly
admits is. needless the saving to the
Water Department would be about
33 1-3 per cent greater than the saving
which, will be brought about by the
quarterly billing system, should it be
adopted by the voters today.
BAN PUT. ON MISCHIEF

HALlOfl E'E.V DISTURBER.
Ghostly Traditions of Night Befsr
All Saints Day Still Find
Superstitions Believers.
There was a time when It was
thought all right and fitting to the oc
casion, for the youth of the community
to go forth on the nigth of October 31
and steal gates, soap windows, take all
the doormats, potted plants and street
signs of a neighborhood to a vacant
lot or to place barrels, boxes and wash
tubs on the streetcar track, but those
were "the good old days" now gone by.
The police department has put the
ban on all such so-called "harmless
fun." There must be no horse-play, no
pranks or practical jokes. Anything
that endangers the life, property or
even the good temper of the public
will be taboo on this Hallowe'en.
The outlook for this season's festival
evening is that it will be as tame as
the new brand of noiseless Fourth of
July. For generations It was consid
ered a necessary part of the year's do
ings for the last night of October to
be celebrated with practical jokes and
many of the demonstrations were car
ried to such an extreme that serious
trouble resulted.
The traditions of Hallowe'en have
been handed down from an early date.
In England the evening preceding the
festival of All faaints was marked with
many harmless revelries such as duck
ing for apples, grabbing raisins in a
dish blazing with alcohol or with mas
querade parties In which witches and
ghosts predominated. Much supersti
tion was attached to the date and many
tof the young people firmly believed
that on Hallowe'en the face of the fu
ture husband or bride would appear
under favorable conditions. These tra
ditions were kept alive in this coun
try and are today the foundation for
the decoration and form of entertain
ment that prevail.
Some authorities assert that Hal
lowe'en dates back to the Seventh cen
tury when the Parthenon in Rome was
converted into a Christian place of
worship and was dedicated to the
virgin and all saints. The celebration
was first held May 1 but later was
changed to November 1 under the gen
eral designation of the Feast of All
Saints. Observation of the date was
retained among Anglican and Amer
lean Episcopalians. In some of th
Roman Catholic countries and In Lou
isiana people visited the cemeteries and
left a tribute on the graves of departed
relatives. It was believed by some
that spirits walked abroad on All
Saints' day. A number of the super
stitions were introduced in tha ages
when superstition held sway.
The forms of observance are allied
closely ' to the "Walpurgis." the Ger
man witch festival, which was sup
posed to mark the assembly of evii
