GASOLINE WARRANTS
CASE TO BE FOUGHT
District Attorney Files Answer
to Injunction Plea.
. TREASURER LEWIS BALKS
Official Refuses to Join Action Be
cause of Vncertainty as to
Legality of Practice.
Multnomah county commissioners
acted lawfully when they ordered pay
ment from county funds of bills for
$332 worth of tickets to be used to
purchase gasoline for une in their pri
vate automobiles on county and pri
vate business, is the contention of an
answer filed by District Attorney
Kvans yesterday to the injunction pro
ceedings instituted ten days aero by
John W. Kaste, as taxpayer, to prevent
County Clerk Beveridee from issuing
warrants drawn at the order of the
commissioners.
Thouerh he is named as one of the
defendants in the action, and concurred
in the answer filed. County Treasurer
Lewis declined to swear to the answer
as his personal belief regarding the
facts of the case, because he was un
decided as to the validity of the com
missioners act. County Clerk Bever
idsre verified the eomplaint on the
prounds that the matter had come to
his attention o'ff icially through lef?al
channels, and that the law presumed,
so far as ie was concerned, that the
act of the commisisoners was leg-al.
He held that no matter what his per
sonal opinion of the proceedings mipht
be, officially he had no reason to doubt
their validity.
The refusal of Mr. Lewis to sifrn the
answer almost caused the matter to pro
by default. Mr. Kvans did not care to
proceed without both Mr. 'Lewis and
Mr. lieveridpe siprntnfr, - but finally did
so for the purpose of settlinsr the is
sues and possibly preventing other law
suits. Had it prone by default, the war
rants would not have been issued, the
injunction beine; made permanent, and
the Standard and Associated Oil com
panies would have had to sue the
county commisisoners for their money.
Mr. Beveridge said yesterday that he
desired the court to determine as soon
as possible the legality of the proceed
ings, and that it was his idea in sipjn
inp the answer filed to brine- the affair
to an Issue. Arguments on the petition
for a permanent restraining order will
be heard before Presiding; Judge Ca
tena next Saturday morniner.
District Attorney Kvans'found it im
possible to brinn the matter to issue
by arguments on a demurrer for the
reason that it would require admission
of the alleerations. For that reason
they were denied in the answer. He
believes that the charges made by Mr.
Kaste are so strong that the case will
have to be fought out on the issue
whether or not the use of gasoline
purchased by county funds in the pri
vate auto?i3ohiles of county commis
sioners wotld be a drain on the county
treasury for an unlawful purpose.
AIRPLANE SERVICE, PLAN
Yakima to Offer Rounil Trips to
Mount Adams Over Orchards.
YAKIMA. Wash.. Aug. 12. (Special.)
C. K. Husk, receiver of the Yakima
land office, left yesterday to spend two
weeks in exploration of Mount Adams.
The trip is made partly as a personal
outing, and also to obtain for the
Yakima commercial club a v;ew of the
big mountain, locate a feasible automo
bile road to the northern side of the
peak, and locate a site for an airplany
landing field.
The latter enterprise is in connection
with projected air flights from this
city to Movint Adams. It has been
decided that the round trip between
Vakima and the mountain is too long
for the ordinary observation planes. If
a landing field can be est a Mished on
the mountain, however, witli supplies
of gasoline and oil, the trip may be
made easily, it is claimed.
The project has peeu liar interest for
Mr. Rusk, who assisted in making the
original survey of the mountain, and
has since made seven or eight ascents.
He hopes to be a passensrer in the first
air plane to circle the peak he has so
often toiled up afoot.

A RESOLUTION asking Governor
Olcott to call a special meeting of
legislature to ratify the national
amendment to the federal constitution
granting equal suffrage in each state
was adopted yesterday by the Woman's
ad club at its weekly noon luncheon
held in fne Benson hotel. The resolu
tion was adopted with the understand
ing that it did not violate the club's
ruling that politics of any nature have
no plac'e in its sessions.

before our club is the presentation of an
issue bigger than politics and which
affects all womankind," declared Mrs.
William P. Strandborg, speaking in the
interests of the matter. "It is the least
we can do for the women of our coun
try. When women of Oregon were
endeavoring to win equal suffrage east
ern women came here with funds and
workers to give us assistance. Xow we
have the privilege of voting and they
have not. We h a ve no money with
which to help them and if the adop
tion of this resolution to be sent to the
governor can in any way assist, it is
our duty to give it our full approval."
The resolution was presented by Mrs.
Ocean Jolly who in addition gave a
short history and explanation of the na
tional and local suffrage situation.

national vigilance committee of the
Associated Ad Clubs of the World, was

National and State Campaigns to
Raise Fund Xow Being Ar
ranged by Committee.
Nation-wide plans of the Roosevelt
Memorial association to raise $10,000,000
for the erection of suitable monuments
and memorials to perpetuate the achieve
ments of Theodore Roosevelt are fast
nearing completion, according to FJd
ward H. Brown, field representative of
the association, who arrived in Port
land yesterday to confer with Dr. Henry
Waldo Coe and other members of the
Oregon committee of the national asso
ciation. Plans have been perfected for staging
a regional conference of workers of
the association in Portland next Mon
day, at which representatives will be
present from the states of Oregon
Washington and Montana. At this con
ference, which will be held at the Ben
son hotel, plans will be outlined for
a standard campaign In the western
states. Following the regional confer
ence each state association will follow
with state conferences to determine t'ae
local details of the campaign.
Promoter Are Confident.
"There is no question but that the
American people will subscribe gladly,
willingly and freely to this memorial
fund," said Mr. Brown yesterday. "In
fact, the campaign wi 11 be unique, in
that the workers will advance no argu
ments of any kind in their search for
funds. It must be in every : .-pect a
gift from the people, for the Roosevelt
family has said the memorials would
be of no significance were they not
gifts from the hearts of the people of
this country."
The actual campaign for the $10.-
000,000 fund will start in every part of
the country October 20. and will close
on October 27, the latter date being the
anniversary of the birth of Theodore
Roosevelt.
'This movement Is non-partisan in
every respect," said Mr. Brown. "The
various state committees contain the
names of men prominent in the councils
of opposing political parties; for party
lines and party prejudices are thrown
aside when the American people devote
inemseives to the" pleasing duty of
arranging a lasting memorial in honor
of Theodore Roosevelt."
OpfRon A lilted for 973,000.
Oregon will be called upon to nub
scribe $75,000 to the fund, and leaders
of the state committee believe that
this amount will be procured long be
fore the campaign has been brought to
a close.
The state committee is headed by i
Dr. Henry Waldo Coe as chairman. !
The other members include Senator :
George E. Chamberlain. Mrs. Lawrence
T. Harris, Salem ; Arthur I. Moulton.
Portland; A. F. Flegel, Portland Kdgar

Grande; Dr. Andrew C. Smith. Port
land; Mrs. Frederick Kggert. Portland;
Thomas B. Neuhausen. Portland; John
H. Smith, Astoria, and Edward H. Sen
senich, Portland.

Benson next Monday an address will
be delivered by Mayor Ole Hanson of
Seattle, who will deliver a eulogy on
the life and accomplishments of Roosevelt.
Delegates from Washington will in
clude, William H. Cowles. Spokane,

Gooding, chairman ; Will H. Gibson,

well ; Klias Marster, Meridian ; R. S.

tions will have been completed. The
members of the state committee are
now mapping out a programme for the

In addition to the construction of a
lasting- monument at Washington. D
C, it is likewise proposed to set aside
Roosevelt Memorial park. Oyster Bay
and perhaps conserve a part of the
Roosevelt family home at Sagamore

so much of his time during the latter
