THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, APRIL 21, 1907. TO KEEP UP PRICES ONE THOUSAND WOMEN'S WHITE PETTICOATS 43 Loggers Organize to Protect Their Industry. OFFICERS ARE ELECTED Plan Is Either to Curtail Output ol Camps or to Slake Minimum Price or Logs $11.00 a Thousand. Protection of the yellow fir timber Industry, either by curtailing the out put or by maintaining a minimum price for which this product shall be sold. Is the object of the Columbia River Yellow Fir Loggers' Association, which effected permanent organization In Portland yesterday at a meeting at the Imperial Hotel. Officers were elected as follows: President, W. F. McGregor, of Astoria; vice-president, Albert Brlx, Astoria; secretary, P. So renson. Portland: treasurer, F. C. Lit tle, Portland. These officers are also members of the executive committee of nine members, the other members being R. S. Farrell, A. W. Clark, J. B. O'Gorman and H. O. Alger, of Port land, and H. C. Clair, of Marshland. Owners or representatives of 18 of the principal logging camps on the Columbia River and its tributaries at tended yesterday's meeting. This rep resentation includes practically all of the large camps in that district, with the exception of those operated by saw mills. The minimum price at which logs shall be sold by members of the association was fixed at ill a thousand, although loggers' at the meeting re ported several sales at $12. A consti tution and by-laws for governing the association were adopted. E. H. Brehm, of Seattle, manager of the Washington Logging & Brokerage Association, addressed the Oregon log gers, detailing the operation of a sim ilar association across the Columbia River in Washington. He said through this organization the Washington deal erg are able to control the output of fir timber and at the same time regu late its market price. Another meeting of the Columbia River Loggers' Association, from which the yellow fir organization resulted, will be held in Portland next Saturday. The old association was organized dur ing the recent lumber-mill Btrlke in this city, and by closing down all camps while the strike was in progress, was successful in preventing the accumu lation of any great surplus of logs to the injury of the market. It differs from the more recently organized as sociation in that It includes In Its mem bership dealers In all classes of logs. Independent of the sawmills. Fully 90 per cent of the logging output on the Lower Columbia River and Its tribu taries is represented in the member ship of the association. CAN BAR MAN IN UNIFORM Sailor Thrust From Dancing Pa vilion Can Recover Only 25 Cents. PROVIDENCE, R. I.. April 20. Chief Yeoman Fred J. Buenzle, who was barred from a dancehall in Newport because, as he says, he was wearing the uniform of the United States Navy, can recover at' law only the price of his admission ticket, according to a decision handed down by William H. Sweetland, chief presiding officer of the Rhode Island Superior Court. The decision, which overrules the demurrer raised by the defendants, says the legal rights of a man wearing the United States uniform are not different from those of any other well-behaved person who possesses a ticket of admission to any place of amusement. Judge Sweetland rules that Buenzle. excluded because he was wearing a naval uniform, is in no different position, le gally, from one who is excluded because he is not in evening dress or for any other reason, though it may have been but the whim of the defendant. In other words, the Judge said, the pro prietors of a place of amusement are not under any obligations to admit any per Bon whom they may choose to exclude. Suit was brought against the Newport Amusement Association, proprietors of a dancing pavilion at Newport, from which Buenzle claimed he was excluded last September because he was wearing a naval uniform. The management ten dered to him the 25 cents he had paid for lils ticket, but Buenzle brought suit for damages. He was given financial sup port by naval officers stationed at New port, and President Roosevelt sent a check to help defray the expenses of prosecuting the case. The court holds also that the action Is not properly one for damages for the wrongful exclusion of the plaintiff, but Is an action for breach of contract be cause of the failure of the defendants to carry out the contract they made when they sold the ticket. This covers only the recovery of the admission price and the expense Incurred in attempting to obtain admission to the pavilion. On the breach-of -contract phase of the case the demurrers of the defendants are overruled and they are ordered to plead on or before April 30. Now Corporations.
