Awn uninuA demonstration in this let

single file past the box. Each dropped
a huge handful of letters Into the gap
ing receiver.
a rnlnRHHi riirurA of Uncle Sam led
the procession. A group of stately
sandwich men spelled out the letters,

mailing box on Sixth street this noon
will partake of statewide significance.

any single organization will be that of
the employes of the Hill railways. Five
thousand invitations from all parts of
Oregon to tourists will be mailed.
The response to the suggestion made
through headquarters officials that
many of the men and women who deal
with the traveling public might de
velop excellent prospects among those
residing elsewhere North. South and
East has been almost overwhelming
since Monday morning. Stacks of let
ters have been prepared from various
. departments of the lines having execu-
. live offices In Portland.

the Vancouver shops, the parade will
leave Tenth and Washington streets

west on Morrison to Sixth and thence
past the mall box.

RIGHT OF LOWLY UPHELD
CIVIL SERVICE HEARING EXTENDED
EVEN TO MANUAL LABOR.
Judge In Suit of Dismissed Employe
for Salary Gives Ruling; as to
Appearance Before Board.
Though you may only shovel snow
from the street or be employed in
manual labor by the Water Bureau, if
you were employed by regular routes,
through the Civil Service Board, the
city cannot discharge you without ac
cording you the same right to a hear
ing as the highest-priced .man in its
employ.
This construction of the rights of
those employed under the city system
of Civil Service was affirmed yester
day morning in a decision of Circuit
Judge- Gatens on a point raised by
Deputy City Attorney Henry A. Davie
In the case of C J. Hermann against
the city of Portland.
In the case tried yesterday and which
went to the jury last night, Hermann
sued the city for J3.60 a day during
the five months following July. 1914.
Hermann was employed in the Water
Bureau as a blacksmith and was laid
off on account of lack of work. He
appealed to the Civil Service Board and
that body put him back in the muni
cipal shops. Poor workmanship was
charged when he was dismissed. After
a hearing the Civil Service Board sus
tained the dismissal. He sued for the
time he was off, from when he first
was let out and when the Civil Service
Board put him back In the municipal
shops.

ICE DAMAGE NOTED
Three River Steamers Arrive
in Need of Repairs.
POULSEN SPRINGS LEAK
I Ocklahama Is Rammed Astern by
Temple E- iorr Henderson Has
. Hole Punched in Hows.
Harkins Is Running.
Damaged by ice so that she leaked
I at the rate of five inches an hour, the
steamer Johan Poulsen arrived late
yesterday after temporary repairs were
I made, and is to be lifted on the Oregon
drydock today to have several planks
replaced in her hull. The steamer
Ocklahama reached here last night badly
damaged astern, as the result of hav
ing been struck by the steamer Temple
E. Dorr while making her way through
the ice below Brookfield. The steamer
Henderson had a small hole knocked
in her bow by ice in North Portland
! harbor yesterday, and repairs were
made here.
The Poulsen was 11 hours making
her way from Astoria to Westport,
though smooth steaming was had as
far as Altoona, where the ice was met,
and she was in it constantly to West
port, so in that stretch she spent 10
hours. It was not until she began
loading lumber that the leak was re
ported, and it was then making at the
rate of five inches an hour. 'mere
was no damage apparent where the
vessel was sheathed, and on being
beached it was discovered to be on the
starboard side about two feet under her
light water line.
Plankfnsr I Cut.
The four-inch planking had been
cut through there in one place and
other planks were damaged, so, at least
for part of their length, five or six
will be renewed. On the port side
amidships more planking was damaged. ;
i It is estimated the vessel will be on
the drydock about three days.
Damage to the steamer Ocklahama
consists of the fantail being carried
I away, both monkey rudders, outside
cylinder timDers on tne siarooara eme
and Inside timbers on the port side, i
besides damage to the wheel proper,
W. Wright, manager of the Port of ,
Portland, after examining the steamer!
at the drydock last night, salt it would
require six weeks or two months to j
make complete repairs.
According to the report made to him
the Ocklahama was in tow of the tug
Wallula, though under her own steam.
and the Temple E. Dorr was astern.
when, at Elliott, below Brookfield, the
Wallula ran over some submerged
piling that was covered with ice, so
she Hlowed and the Ocklahama am
likewise, the Dorr striking the stern
wheeler.
Henderson Also Damaged.
The Henderson, with officials of the
Shaver Transportation Company aboard,
made a trip to North Portland harbor
in the morning, it being desired to
ascertain if log rafts could be handled
there. While an effort was being made
to push into the ice it is supposed a
hole was driven in the planking near
the bow though it was not discovered
until the steamer had returned to
Portland. A sample was secured of
the ice there and it measured five
inches in thickness.
Captain Hosford, of the Harkins
line, said last night that the steamer
Jessie Harkins was operating between
Vancouver and the Oregon shore in
clear water, all ice having gone out
below the interstate bridge. Conditions
there were favorable for the ice to melt
in a day or twd, be said.
The McCormick steamer Multnomah
arrived in the harbor last night, after
having been on the way from Astoria
since midnight, the vessel proceeding
cautiously so as to eliminate danger
of damage. Rivermen look for the ice
in the Lower Columbia to break up so
that navigation can be resumed early
in the week.
SNOVIOXIAX IS AT NAPLES
British Steamer AVith Wheat , Cargo
From Portland Reaches Port.
Safe at Naples after steaming more
than 90 days is the British tramp Sno
donian, which was reported to the Mer
chants' Exchange yesterday as having
reached the Italian port January 19.
She left the Columbia River on Octo
ber 4 and because of the closing of the
Panama Canaj was compelled to follow
the long route to the Mediterranean.
The steamer was at Balboa October
29 and reported at Coronel November
20, making Montevideo December 4 and
St. Vincent December 24, while she
passed Gibraltar January 3. The ves
sel had 227,995 bushels of wheat aboard.
She was followed from the Columbia
October 5 by the British steamer Volga,
the latteY being bound for Belfast, and
her arrival at Balboa was about the
same as that of the Snowdonian and
she was reported at Montevideo about
November 24 and St. Vincent December
12, having passed less time at the Pa
cific side of the Canal than the Snow
donian.
ICE STOPPED SHIPS IX 190 7
Aragonia Broke Way Here and Re
leased Steamer Columbia.
With the shifting of the wind yester
day from chilly quarters to the east
and north to more balmy southern
climes, thereby indicating an early
breaking up of the ice on the Lower
Columbia, a tie-up of ocean-going ves
sels was avoided by the freeze, though
it caused the withdrawal of a number
of river steamers.
The last freeze that blocked deep-
water men was in 1907 and the steamer
Columbia, then in the service of the
San Francisco & Portland line, was
held in the ice from January 17 to
January 25, when on her way to sea,
having sailed from Portland January
16. She was released after the German
steamer Aragonia, at that time under
charter to the Portland & Asiatic
Steamship Company, broke her way
through the ice on her arrival from the
Orient.
