SLOUGH OUT URGED
North Portland Club Criticises
City Administration.
USE OF FUND CONDEMNED
Assertion Is Made That Proposed
Sewer Would Mean Forfeiture
of Much Property for Tax
and Mass Meeting Called.
The North Portland Commercial Club
adopted resolutions at the meeting
Tuesday night held In the North Port
land Library on Killingsworth avenue
and Commercial street, condemning: t"e
use that had been made of the $2090
appropriated May 31. 113. to open up
the Intake of Columbia Slough to pro
duce a current from the Columbia River
strong enough to carry off sewage of
the Penlnisula. A committee visited the
intake Sunday and found that nothing
had been done toward opening the in
take. George S. Shepherd read an itemized
report of the disposition of the i-'OOO.
which indicated that 90 per cent of the
money had been expended for other
purposes. Mr. Shepherd declared that
the main portion of the 2000 had been
wasted and tlfat none had been applied
directly to the object for which It was
appropriated. He said that it wouia
be a simple matter to deepen the Intake
and divert a current from the columDia
.River into Columbia Slough that would
carry off sewage from the Peninsula
at a cost ranging between V-000 and
J3000.
It was asserted that Commissioner
Dieck had spent more than tlO.000 get.
tins data for a sewer system from the
Peninsula and that he favored the con
struetion of a trunk Intercepting sewer
from Parkrose to the Willamette River,
paralleling Columbia Slough. which
would cost from tl.000.000 to $1,500,000.
Jt was the sentiment of the meeting
that the cost of this trunk sewer would
be more than the property owners
ould stand and would mean confisca
tion of property. The use of Columbia
slough as the sewer outlet was aavo
cated. S. L. Osborne declared It would cost
less to dredge Columbia Slough than to
build the trunk Intercepting sewer, the
estimated cost being $630. U00, accord
ing to the estimates of ex-City Engi
neer Hurlburt. while the sewer trunk
would cost more than $1,000,000. E.
Orth said that a vast amount of ma
terial would be needed to fill the ap
proaches to the interstate bridge, and
that this could be taken from Columbia
Slough.
G. A. Carter, representing the East
St. Johns Improvement Association,
said that club had taken up the dredg
ing of Columbia Slough with the United
Slates authorities. Mr. Carter said he
ronsidered the dredging of Columbia
Slough as a project of great Importance
for the City of Portland, both for a
ship channel and for sewerage, and
promised that the St. Johns Association
would co-operate with the other Penin
sula organizations In having the im
provement made.
It was decided to call a mass meeting
f the property owners of the Peninsula
for Saturday, March 10, In the assembly
hall of the North Portland Library to
discuss the matter.
Revenue, is busily at work tabulating
the income tax statements tiled with
that office prior to March 1 by Oregon
people who have incomes of $3000 or
more. Until the summary is com
pleted It will not be known just how
many have filed or the number of de
linquents. Many failed to file ' statements, it is
understood. through the misunder
standing that because of ttie exemption
of $4000 for married men those with
incomes between $3000 'and $4000 need
not submit statements. This is an er
ror, says Collector Miller, as all with
incomes amounting to $3000 or more are
required to file their reports and the
exemptions will be allowed wherever
they are prescribed in the law. The
statements are sent to Washington
and the amount of the Income tax in
each case is figured and the statements
are then returned here for collection.
Although Collector Miller is allowed
some discretion in the matter of una
voidable delays, upon a proper show
ing being made to him by delinquents,
the law prescribes a penalty of $1000
for failure to file statements at the
time required and a number of Oregon
people are liable to have a fine as
sessed against them.

When friends, numbering two score.
tried to free Gus Kropas, Greek, from
the hands of the law after Kropas, bad
stabbed, possibly fatally, a fellow-coun
tryman in a fight at Fourth and Couch
streets yesterday, John H. Price, cit
detective, knocked one man to the
ground, and, still holding his prisoner,
drew his gun and defied the mob. Two
friends of the wounded man joined him
and there was no further resistance.
Sam Koulas, the man that was
stabbed, was taken to the emergency
hospital and later removed to St. Vin
cent's, where a deep wound In the ab
domen was dressed. Kropas was lodged
in the city jail on the charge of assault
with a deadly weapon by Detectives
Price and Mallett.
Detective Price was off duty yester
day, being on the night relief, but
happened to pass Fourth and Couch
streets when the fight was going on.
He collared Kropas before the man
could flee and found himself in the
center of an angry mob of Kropas'
friends. Though both men involved
were Greeks, each appeared to belong
to a different faction and feeling was
high. A crowd of several hundred per
sons gathered when the officer was at
tacked. Koulas. the injured man. is an ex
pressman with headquarters at Fourth
and Couch streets. He lives in a rooming-house
at the corner of Grand av
enue and Pine streets. According to
his story of the fight, he had been
annoyed the night previous by Kropas,
when the latter, meeting him when he
was engaged in a card game at a Greek
coffee-house, insisted upon standing be
hind him and telling his opponents
what cards he held. Hot words were
exchanged then, but no blows.
Yesterday Kropas came to Koulas'
place of business and the fight started.
Several blows had been exchanged when
Kropas drew his knife. It had a blade
four inches long and made an ugly
wound. .
