?Ir. Albee and Mr. Dieck Prepare
Statements to Go on Ballot at
Mr. Barbnr's Request Poll-
lag Places Listed.
Without regard to the possibility of
the recall being held illegal by the Su
preme Court in the Columbia County
case now pending:. City Auditor Bar
bur is going ahead with arrangements
for the proposed recall election in
Portland against Mayor Albee and City
Commissioners Dieck and Brewster. A
list of polling: places was completed
yesterday and will be published Mon
day, and the ballot form and other pre
liminary plans have been prepared.
The polling places for the special
city election, which is scheduled for
October 27, will be the same as those
selected for the state and county elec
tion November 3. It is planned to have
.the booths fixed up "for the special
election so that they can be used also
for the general election, without
change and with but little additional
4-ost. It is probable arrangements will
be made so that the cost of preparing
election booths can be distributed be
tween the city and the county.
Two Statement Ifisaed.
Mayor Albee and Commissioner
Dieck yesterday issued their state
ments to appear on the official ballot.
They were requested by Auditor Bar
bur. Commissioner Brewster has not
prepared his statement as yet.
The official statement of Mayor
Albee in answer to charges made in re-
call petitions by the recallers reads as
follows:
"Reasons given as to why H. R.
Albee should not be recalled: He has-1
fulfilled his pledge to the people, given
before his election, to devote his time,
energy and talents to the best of hi
ability for the general public welfare.
1 he city business has been so econom
ically conducted that a large saving in
operating expenses has been made and
there will be lower taxes for municipal
purposes next year as a result."
Mayor Alimrcta Old Cklrge.
In the recall petitions the Mayor
charged with retaining his position as
general manager of a local insurance
company. Mr. Albee says he has an
swered this upon many occasions. He
cays he has retained his name in con
nection with the company to protect
his claim on renewal revenue, payable
from time to time from insurance poll
cies written while he was with th
company.
He says he had expert legal -advice
from attorneys before he took office
and this was declared by them to be
within the law. It Is considered that
it is the same as though he had prop
erty from which there was an income.
As to the Insurance company he says
he has not been in the office since he
became Mayor.
Mr. Dink Makn Defeuc
Commissioner Dieck in his official
statement says:
"I am charged with the following
"1. Extravagance.
"From appropriations aggregating
$530,000 the department has completed
all work intended and expects to re
turn about $50,000 to the general fund,
as savings.
"2. Instability, inefficiency- and in-
Judiciousness.
"The reply to the first charge seems
to answer.
"3. Many competent and worthy em
ployes have been discharged without
Just cause and contrary to the spirit of
civil service.

ORIGINAL DIRECTOR OF
'PAID-IN FULL" TO ACT
Thomas Coffin Cooke, Who Staged Broadway Success Originally, Has
Charge of Production Here as Stage Director of Baker Players.
NTERESTING in connection with the
production of Paid In Full," by The
Baker Players this week, is the fact
that Thomas Coffin Cooke, stade di
rector of the company, was director of
productions in Niw York for Watren-
hals & Kemper, aiV personally directed
and rehearsed the original Broadway
production of the play, which had a
phenomenal run of two years, not even
stopping for the hot Summer season.
It is a fact." said Mr. Qooke.. "that
nothing unusual was expected of the
play, and the surprising wav in which
the critics and public alike simply went
mao over it rainy took away the breata
of everyone connected with its produc
tion. It was the first success Eusrene
Walter had, and his greatest, also.
1 do not know Just how the firm
happened to produce it, as it was ex
tremely difficult for an unknown au
thor to gret a hearing-, but often an
emergency arises which necessitates
the keeping open of a playhouse (sud
denly closed by a failure or a succes
sion of failures) and with nothing
promising on hand, a choice is made of
plays that might never be considered
otherwise.
"In this way Fate has often 'discov
ered' and smiled upon struggling- play
wrights whose fortune from that time
became fixed. Walter is now one of
our most successful playwris-hts and
oes not have to go to manasers. bea-
ging to have his plays produced. There
re bids for them before they are writ
ten. The success of his 'The Easiest
Way. "The Wolf.' 'Fine Feathers'
which the Baker Players will be seen
n soon), and others is well known.
But to get back to 'Paid in Full," I note
hat two of the original company were
people who had formerly played with
the Baker Stock Company in this city.
