stalled.
Through the bitterness which exists,
however, the members of the school
board have refused to connect the
schoolbuilding with the city water
supply and instead have' had a well
dug to supply the school children.
Mayor Blamed for Riot
A majority of the present city ad
ministration of Turner is aligned with
the "wets." it is declared. They are
led "by the Mayor, whom many blame
for the riot last night. They say it
was at his inslstance that the Council
forced the issue of whether the carni
val 'company should pay a license.
Members of the Council are R. O.
Thomas, Mayor; Dr. G. W. Maasey, Wes
Smith. Lee Jeans and H. A. Thieson.
Frank Hall is City Recorder and W.
G. Smith, City Marshal. These last two
officials are aligned with the City
Council. Thieson is said to be the-only
member of the Council inclined to the
side of the "drys."
A majority of the members of the
Turner band are with the "dry" ele
ment, it is said, and it was this fact
that served to stir up added ill-feeling
when the controversy over the license
arose.
Band Paya KIne for Company.
The carnival company was secured
by the band to aid in giving a benefit
entertainment. The band members
took charge of the carnival and be
cause of this they contended that the
city should not levy ii license fee,
-which the city ordinance provides shall
be paid by visiting attractions.
Members of the Council, the City Re
corder, and Marshal Smith contended
that the carnival was not a home talent
production and therefore must pay a
license. Friday night Manager Brown
ing, owner of the carnival company,
was arrested and fined $5 for conduct
ing a carnival without a license. The
band boys resented this and I. I Rob
ertson, of the ban, paid the fine.
Saturday, Robertson. representing
the band, went to the Recorder's office
and offered to pay to the Recorder the
$3 demanded but that official then de
manded $6 on the ground that two per
formances were to be given.
Robertson and two other representa
tives of the band tried to prevail on
the Recorder to accept the $3 formerly
demanded, but the Recorder held out
for $6, according to Robertson's story,
caying the city ordinance required J3
license for each performance of a car
nival. Payment of . this amount was
refused.
The band then proceeded to give the
carnival last night with the band boys
or their friends in charge of all of the
nine attractions within the larger car
nival tent.
About 9 o'clock, the Councilmen,
Recorder, City Marshal and several
others appeared at the carnival. Sev
eral small fights occurred between
sympathizers of the two factions, but
when the city officials entered the
main carnival tent and attempted again
to place Browning under arrest, the
band boys interfered, and the riot
started.
Rescurr Hurt In Attempt.
Robert Hunsaker, the young man
most seriously cut, went to the aid of a
friend, who, witnesses declare, was
being pummelled in the face by a man
who later wielded the knife. As soon
as Jeans was pulled from this man, it
is said, he drew a knife and made a
lunge at young Hunsaker, but struck
Jim Kelley, cutting him in. the stom
ach. Before the many fighting partici
pants realized the seriousness of the
situation young Hunsaker had been
deeply slashed in the stomach four!
times and Martin Nicely had been cut
In the shoulder.
Nicely, one of the men slashed, is a
married man, about 45 years old, and
runs a garage at Turner. James Kelley,

55 years old and runs a fish market.

Seefc on Girl's Charge.
"Do unto others as you would have
them do unto you" may be a nice motto,
but its application got Nick Kerbatch
into serious trouble last night.
Kerbatch was wanted on a charge of
attacking a 12-year-old girl a few
weeks ago. Last night the police re
ceived information that the man was
coming to Portland on the St. Johns
car. Detectives Coleman and Snow -and
Patrolman Holland were sent out to
meet the car in am automobile.
The police dismounted and waited for
the car at Stanton street and Williams
avenue. The car was of theno-stop"
variety, so the police swung on as It
went by them at full speed. A courte
ous passenger took pity on the plain
clothes oficers. who stood on the foot
board pounding desperately at the
locked car door. The passenger un
locked the door and admitted the police.
"Thank you, sir!" grunted the de
tectives. Then they looked close at
t-heir benefactor. It was Kerbatch.
They arrested the man and locked him
up. Kerbatch is held in default of $2000
bail.

Senator Says Brandeis Of
fended Against Ethics.
RATE CASE MADE BASIS
Betrayal of Case of People Declared
Violation of Common Morality
Among Men Five Re
ports to Ee Made.
WASHINGTON. April 2. Senator
Cummins made public tonight the un
favorable report he will submit tomor
row to the Senate judiciary committee
as a member of the sub-committee
which investigated the fitness of Louis
D. Brandeis for the -Supreme Bench.
It is devoted entirely to a denunciation
of Mr. Brandeis' conduct as counsel
for the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion in the S per cent advance rate
case.
Insisting that Mr. Brandeis was em
ployed "to take the public side of the
question," Senator Cummins declares
that his action in admitting in the
closing argument that the net reve
nues of the railroads were Inadequate
was an offense against common mo
rality and professlonad ethics.
"I have endeavored in vain to con
ceive any excuse for the course Mr.
Brandeis pursued," says the report. "If
under the circumstances of this pro
ceeding the most important from
every point of view which has taken
place in a quarter of a century a
lawyer who appears with other coun
sel la behalf of the public, can, after
his assistants have made their argu
ments, arise and in open court admit
that the carriers were wholly right
and the public wholly wrong upon the
immediate question under considera
tion, without incurring the censure
which follows betrayal, then I confess
that I do not understand either com
mon morality among men or the ethics
of the profession to which Mr. Bran
deis belbngs."
Senator Cummins' report will be one
of five submitted. The three Demo
crats, who voted in fvor of confirming
the Brandeis nomination, and Senator
Works, the second minority member,
all report individually to the full committee.
tions. Divorces cost money, and she
believes that many couples are delay
ing bringing actions to 6ever domestic
relations until they have more ready
cawsh. Prohibition also is credited with
helping to lessen the number of di
vorces. A study of the records of the Clacka
mas County Circuit Court, which has
always been a favorite with divorce
seeking men and women, show that
when money is free and business good
the number of divorce suits Increase,
but as soon as a period of depression
comes they become fewer.
Whether mSny couples who really
would like to be separated postpone
securing a decree during times of de
pression on the theory that two can
live cheaper than one, is a debated
subject among those who are brought
in -touch with these numerous divorce
actions.

Promoters Say Refining Mill Will Be

land Men lnteretited.
OREGON CITY, Or., April 2. (Spe
cial.) An exploratory tunnel, already
some 30 feet deep and large enough to
permit a man to stand upright within
it, has been cut into the silica deposits
on Charles Terrill's property, just out
side of the city limits. The tunnel will
be carried in about 75 feet, and then a
shaft will be sunk downward to de
termine the depth of the deposit, which
was discovered a month or more ago
when Mr. Terrill started excavating
under his house for a cellar.
Indications so far are that the silica
deposit, the only known one of its kind
west of the Cascades, will rank in
grade to "Bridgeport silica," which is
the standard of purity. Portland men
are interested with Mr. Terrill in the
venture.
Engineers who have viewed the de
posits estimate that there are approxi
mately 400,000 cubic yards of the ma
terial on the property, and the deposit
has but two feet of earth over it.
Accordtng to the promoters, within 30
days a refining mill, employing at the
start from 15 to 20 men. will be erected,
and shipment of the silica to Portland
market by truck and barge will be
started. The silica will be sold at from
$20 a ton up, according to its quality,
and already contracts for a consider
able amount have been secured.
The enterprise will be in the hands
of the promoters alone, and there will
be no stock issued. The silica concern
will be strictly an Oregon company,
dealing through a Portland market.
