THE SUNDAY. OK EG OX TAX, PORTLAND, MARCH 3, 1912. 11 " .... - a GRAND JURY RAPS COUNTY COURT ACT Sale of Kenton Gratel Pit Re ferred to as Somewhat Rep rehensible Transfer. FURNITURE DEAL UPHELD Jporl of Inquisitors Kxonrratcs Members on Charge Conrernlnir Kurnlhtns fr Multnomah 'arni and T j of Architect. In Us final report, relumed yesterday afternoon, the ronnty crnd Jury rxon rrat'i the nxmbrn of the County Court from charRes of ln-ompeten-e and vronsdolnic In connection with the con ktrurtlon of the new Courthouse and the purchase of furniture for Mult Iiomab Farm. The exoneration does nut extend, however, to the Jlo of the Xenton rravel pit. the expression . on this subject being: "It does not look verjr well, especially in a transaction like this, to hava the title of the property appear in the name of Hubert Shaw, a clerk In the offlce. the trn.f.-r taking place to rhaw within It days of the sale to A. ltnskowltx by the County Court." The report sets forth that the pit was soil t Anslem Boskowltz, a nephew of M liloch. the Courthouse mney lender, on November 1. for :)1'. and that Hobert Shaw. Clerk of the County Court, purchased it on De cember 13 for fj:i. ruins Instances cf transactions of which no record ap pears in the commissioners Journal, the report says: -We recommend that In the future 11 transactions of the County Court he spread upon the Journal as required by law." Karaltare-Us'las Ja.tiard. The f jrnlh!nKS for Multnomah Karm. the Jury finds, were purchased from the Ira K. Towers Furniture Company, and were secured "as low as could be furnished by any reliable firm." Speak inir r the Courthouse, the Jurors ex press a desire to "commend the County Court and the architects for their eli-eavoi-a to net the best for the, county. The so-culled extras were really addi tions. Ini-ludln the two upper stories and the Jail, and many changes In dif ferent departments recommended by their head-t." Concerning the furnishings for Mult nomah Kami, the statement Is made In the report that the Morgan-Atchley Furniture Company. Ihe Kdwards Com pany. H. Jennlng tt Son and I. Uevurts ax ttons also submitted bids, ami that the bid of the Ira F. Towers Furniture Company was the lowest bid. Appended to the report was a letter written to the grand Jury by William W hidden, of Whldden I.evl.. archi tects of the Courthouse btilldtng. In this communication Mr. Whldden ex plained In detail the expenditure of '1.721.47 charged to extras, and de clared that "not one-quarter of 1 per cent can be charged as purely extra work, meaning such Items as were overlooked or neglected br us In pre paring the original pl.ni." .trraltrrt Kxplalea Aeewvat. Mr. Whldden wrote that It h id been the custom of his firm to consider one half, or 2, per cent, of Its per cent commission earned when in readiness to let a contract for a building, an additional I per cent earned when de t.itlrd drawings are. finished, and the full 5 per cent when a building was finally completed lp to January 1. Jl- his firm had drawn tiu.uuo In commission, he stated, leaving a bal ance due of Ji53M.lt. On February 17 the firm had I13.S7I.C3 due It. These statements from Mr. Whldden were In answer to charges that the architects had overdrawn their account by many tnoiiaand of dollars. "We recommend that persona held s witnesses be given better quarters and be not put In with criminals." states a paragraph of the grand Jury's report. This was occasioned by the fact that the Jurors, when on a visit to the County Jail yesterday morning, found a man who had been locked up as a witness for about a month, lie complained of his treatment. Ijter tn the diy the Jury returned a not true bill In the case of Wtlllnm tnrm.in. accused of having stabbed Joe ISeherkl In a s::l n at Third and Flan ders streets on January 29. It was to testify In this I'M. that the witness had bern held In Jail a month. SOUTH DEVELOPS TYPES Speaker at Club I.uiuht'on Dk-Uri Knrlal 1 ItararlcrlMU. He v.

GAS PLANT TO COST MILLION WILL RISE Portland Gas & Coke Company Selects Site Mile Above Town of Linnton. FUEL IS TO BE MADE Before Buildings Can lie Erected Fill Ilequlrins O50.000 Cubic Yards of Earth Will Have to Be Completed. rians for the establishment of a big pas and fuel manufacturing plant near the Government moorings, about one mile above Linnton, are under way by the Portland Gas Coke Company. The site that has been selected covers a large plot of ground and before the buildings can be erected It will be necessary to make a fill on the properly which will require about S50.000 cubic yards of earth. The project will require an expendi ture estimated at nearly $1,000,000. The plant will have a much larger capacity than the one now in opera tion on the waterfront between Everett and Flanders streets. Included In the plana for the new project there will be established a plant for the manu facture of brlckettes for fuel purposes. The brlckettes will be molded from tine coal and residue of the gas gen erating plant. The company plans to install a plant that will provide gas for a much larger population than Portland now has. The new location wan selected because of better facilities for receiving oil from steamers and also for the reason that the property now occupied has become too valuable for such a purpose. The new location is also outside of the city limits and the Are risk accordingly will be reduced greatly. The remova? of the plant to the new site will require the laying of several miles of main gas conduits. The dis tributing plants on both the East Side and West Sides will not be affected by the removal of the main plant out side of the city limits. EUGENTTiLTElTiS 0, K. I.OX: TEST FltOVES PLANT IS , GREAT SUCCESS. rure Water Xotv Available for Varsity Students Xo I I sense Producing Germs Found. After a trial of 11 months, the health committee of the faculty of the Cniver sity of Oregon pronounced the filter plant at Eugene a success and declares tliat a safe water supply has been found for the students of the State University. Professor Sweetzer. tiie head of the department of botany, who is also State Biologist, has been mak ing bacteriological tests, four times a week since the filter was installed last April. His findings have shown that at times during high water the Willam ette River has shown 4000 colonies of bacteria to the cubic centimeter, while the same water after It has passed through the filter has averaged but five or six colonies to the cubic centi meter, and tests have never shown more than 30. In the tests made of the flK tered water, no pathogenic or disease producing germs have been found. Con sidering that a few colonies of the harmless varieties of bacilli are found even In the pure water of mountain streams, the results of the tests have been highly satisfactory. The most pleasing proof of the purity of the water at Eugene has been the entire absence of typhoid and other in testinal disorders from among the stu dents. There has not been a single student 111 with typhoid since the in stallation of the filter. Speaking of the effect of the filter upon the health of the community. Professor Stafford, head of the chemistry department of the university, who is chairman of the health committee of the faculty, under whose direction the change in the water system at Eugene lias taken place, said: "Every case of typhoid which has come under my observation in the town of Eugene since the Installation .of the filter plant, has been found to have arisen from drinking well water or from some other source of contamina tion than the city water. It is with a great deal of satisfaction that we know now that the health of the students Is no longer endangered from contami nated water supply. Of course, a water system that must depend upon filtra tion Is not as satisfying as that sup plied by a pure mountain stream and we are not so self-contented that the plan of Pr. Calvin S. White to supply water to all the Willamette Valley WHEN YOU TRAVEL Next to the ticket your trunk is the important thing.

Tbe rialn Truth Is This. Rupture as explained In our free book can't be relieved or cured can't even be kept from growing worse unless constantly held in place.

No bait, elastic belt or springs around your waist, and no leg-straps nothing to pinch, chafe, squeexe or bind. Self-regulating, self-adjusting. It is held in position by suction can't shift or slip the only truss in existence that is honestly guaranteed never to let the rupture come out. Try It 60 Days at Oar Risk. TVe have so much faith in the Cluthe Truss we have seen It work wonders for so many others that we want to make one especially for your case and let you wear It at our risk We'll give you 0 days time to test it if it doesn't keep your rupture from coming out. whn you are working and at all othr times if it doesn't put an end to the trouble you've heretofore had with your rupture if you don't tret better right away then the truss won't cost you a cent.
