If Drivers Refuse to Conform Witn
Demands of Council, Operation

Counter Proposition Likely.
Tuesday Is "Double Savings" Day ait Meier &. Frank's
A list of proposed Jitney routes -extending
over streets not now coursed
by streetcars and into well settled dis
tricts not now amply provided with
transportation, was submitted yester
day by City Commissioner Dieck to A.
A. Thlelke, president of the Jitney
Drivers" Union. He said he would con
sider the routes and announce within a
day or two whether the Jitneys would
accept them or not.
The move is now up to the Jitneys.
If they say they will not take the
routes as outlined. Commissioner Dieck
will report to the City Council, prob
ably on Friday, that there is no use
nrenarinsr an extensive franchise, be-1
cause the jitneys have refused the basic i A
part of the franchise, the routes the 'a
Council Is. willing to give.
Mr. Dieck says the routes as sub
mitted to the Jitneys are purely his
own ideas of where Jitneys should op
erate and that changes might be made.
He says, however, that he is opposed
to granting the jitneys a franchise to
operate over streetcar lines merely
within the close-in territory, as at
present, and he is backed up in this
position by Mayor Albee and Commis
sioner .Baker and possibly Commission
er Bigelow, forming a majority of the
members of the Council.
Mr. Blgelow'a Stand fn Donbt.
Commissioner Bigelow's position, on
the jitney had not been announced
yesterday. The only comment he has
made on the subject is that he does not
believe the jitneys should dictate what
the 'provisions of their franchise shall
be.
It is expected at the City Hall that
the jitneys will make a counter set of
routes to submit to tha Council at the
time the Dieck routes are submitted.
It is not expected, however, that the
routing suggested, by the Jitneys will
be acceptable, because the basis of jit
ney operation has been the short haul
along the principal lines of the street
car company, leaving the unprofitable
haul for the streetcar to handle alone.
The jitney competition has "been com
petition lor the cream of the business
only.
It is expected the negotiations be
tween the Council and the Jitney lead
ers will be hurried, inasmuch as No
vember 15 is the time set for jitneys
to cease operation unless they have a
franchise.
Continuation In Donbt.
If It is seen by November 15 that the
jitneys are unwilling to accept a fran
chise bearing conditions of service and
regulation comparable with those Im
posed on streetcars by that time it is
considered certain that the jitneys will
be put out of business. If, on the other
hand, the jitney Is willing to submit
to regulation the service will be con
tinued, probably on the present basis,
until a franchise can be put Into effect.
The list of routes submitted to the
jitneys by Commissioner Dieck was as
follows:
Div'slon-streat line From Third and Al
der streets acroes Hawthorne bridge to East
Water, Kast Clay, East Twelfth. Mulberry,
Harrison. Ladti avenue. Division to Six

Horses to Be Displayed Will Rep
resent Ideas of Most Valuable
Stock, for Military Purposes
and Give Hint to Breeders.
James H. Murphy, president of the
Portland Hunt Club, which is staging
the forthcoming Horse Show for the
benefit of charity, yesterday received a
telegram from W. S. Holland, "of Van
couver, announcing the shipment of
eight jumping and high school horses
as entries for the big society event.
The animals are from the stables of
Messrs. Drysdale, McCormack & Hol
land, of Vancouver, and the entry by
Mrs. GiWspie. a promient society
leader of Victoria. They comprise the
cream of the show stock of British
Columbia, and will be contenders for
the cups and other trophies offered at
the Horse Show Friday and Saturday
nights. The Drysdale entry practically
assures the competition of Miss Drys
dale, the charming society equestrienne
of Vancouver.
The Canadian shipment will bo on
the waters of Puget Sound today. To
night they will arrive at Seattle, where
J. D. Farrell, president of the O.-W. K.
& N.. Is personally arranging for tHeir
reception and transshipment to Port
land. The blueblooda will travel by
express to Portland and in cars that
have been equipped with padded box
stalls.
Mr. Murphy also received yesterday
the entries of Captain F..K. Newcomer,
of Vancouver Barracks, representing
the United States Army. The Van
couver . off icers will have five mounts
In the' class, which will demonstrate
the most suitable animals for use of
the Army.
The entries by the officers of the
Army is attracting unusual attention
from horse breeders over the North
west. The reason is that the war, in
Europe has taken nearly all of the
horses in the short-grass country, and
those owners who had especially desir
able animals received enormous prices,
for them." While they are at it. the
growers intend to provide an animal
that will command those prices in 'the
future. -They are told that Oregon's
climate is suitable for monopolizing
the horse-growing Industry of the
West, that it Is a competitor with Ken
tucky for growing the thoroughbreds
and that it is a money-making indus
try at this time.
In the eyes of many in Portland the
Horse Show is therefore taking on a
practical, as well as social, aspect. Its
importance is Enhanced just that much.
