G. RUsn- liKht. nominee for ilayor. To the peo ple of Portland, ami particularly those residing in tl:e Northwest section of the city, there Is no more unpopular man than Klernan. who. with his attor ney Ralph R. Duntway. who Is also op posing Mayor Simon, is mainly re sponsible for the delay In proceeding with the construction of the Broadway '''it!' because Mayor Simon has con tended for the Immediate building- of this span that he today finds himself bitterly opposed by Klernan. There Is no other reason for Klernan a opposi tion to Simon's re-election. Promises Are Indicated. Rushllsht finds himself Just about as bnsy squaring himself with prospective appointees to municipal Jobs as he does In teUlna- the northeast side people why It Is Klernan la so aitresslvely sup porting Dim for the office of Mayor. Of course, itus-ii'-' eral times that he has made any prom ises as to the appointments ho will make. If elected Mayor. But the fact remains that the trades unionists of the city are pretty well lined up In his support, and It is reasonable to pre sume they have not thrown that sup port to Uushlltrht without some understanding- In return.

These peorle also are staking their faith In their ability to dictate to Rush light the appointment of s Chief of Po lice. Pledge Made In Advance. In the primary campaign these facts became known. General circulation was given them among the organised labor people aa a means of Influencing their aupport of Rushlight against Ixjmbard and Werleln. who refused absolutely to commit themselves to a slnsle appoint ment, should they be nominated and elected These promises by Rushlight are said to Include the appointment of Andy Matson. one of the leaders 06 the Longshoremen s I nlon and an active Rushlight supporter, for Chief of Police. At the Dame time "Paddy" Maher. pres ent County Detective, has his eyes on this plum. Maher la known to have made application to Rushlight for this appointment and Ruslillgat, so Maher says, has assured him that he will give Manor's application "earnest, cousiue- tion." Both Matson and Maher are among Rushlight's most active workers In the pending campaign, one or ooin vi imiu will be disappointed, but to date Rush light has succeeded In holding both in line. The Job la worth K50 a montn. Other Places Promised. appointments by Rushlight should be be elected, except that John B. Coffey Is said to be slated for a place on Rush- ugnt s j-.xecu-.ive rwmu no the police committee. V. H. Fitzgerald, a union cigarmaker. and who is Just as active as Coffey in working for Rush light. Is said to be one of the organized labor men who will be named on Rush light's Executive Board of 10 members. Aside from Chief of Police, the Mayor elect will have the appointment of a City Health Officer at KM a month; City Engineer, at 1200. and a Building Inspector, at 0. In addition to an Ex ecutive Board of 10 members, the Mayor also appoints a Water Board of three members. Health Board of three mem bers, and of which the Chief of Police is the fourth member, and a Park Board of four members. The Health Board has the appointment of a superintendent of the crematory at $1S5 a month. Superin tendent of Parks, a Job paying 4208 a month. Is an appointment vested with the Park Board.
