Ho Man Shall Interfere Xa Sis Way of Doing Polios Bnainess. PORTLAND. Or June 4, 1903. Editor Journal: I notice with regret that the dally pa pers of Portland, among them The Jour nal, are having the temerity to criticise Chief Hunt for the manner In which he" Is conducting the Police Department of the City. Some of the papers seem tothjnk . Mr.. Jlujt should PX lomL?$r. tention to tne wisnes or Mayor wii Ilaroe. Others think the Chief should treat newspaper reporta with common courtesy. This shows how shortsighted these newspapers are. It also shows now lit tle they know of the powers of Chief of Police. They seem to have forgotten that some years ago Portland had a Chief who could not hit It off with the newapapera and porters. Have they lost sight of the result of that con troversy? This was William Watklns. He went so far as to deny all persons access to the "blotter." What did he care. If all It contained was matter of public rec ord? Wasn't he Chief of Police? It 1 true he lost his head, officially, and there are persons Ill-natured enough to claim It was small loss, but he shewed the newspaper men that he was "It," and that was all there was to It. Some of the papers have seen fit to criticise Mr. Hunt for keeping a woman In Jail for hours with no charge pending against her. This shows how unjust these papers are. Isn't Mr. Hunt Chief? Hasn't he the power to put Inoffensive persons behind the bars and detain them at his own sweet will? Did not Presl dent Roosevelt compliment him on his effte iency as Ch lef t And- would not t he President reinstate him if the Mayor shdQld be short-sighted enough to re move him? There are carping critics among the saloon men, :who claim partiality ls shown to certain saloon-keepers In the "bad lands." This Is all wrong. Should not the Chief be allowed to select the saloons he wishes to favor? What is the use of being Chief If. one has no discretionary powers? There is alao a kick from the gamblers, which deserves attention. Some of them claim outalde gamblera ahould not be allowed to do business within the sacred limits of Portland. It Is alleged that when 'The Colonel" and "Little Eddie." from Van couver, opened up at the Oilman, they were shut out because of their foreign extraction. Everybody knowa how un Juat thla atatement Is. They were not closed up at all. All that they were re quested to do was to quit, which they immediately did. Can any one blame tbem for thla? Some of the saloons are required to close promptly at 1 o'clock, and no one Is allowed In the building after that hour. Others, notably the three saloona on Second and Burnslde, close their out side doors and gambling and drinking go on during the remainder of the night. What If there is a law strictly Inhibiting such practices? Is not the Chief above the law? Blind policemen. stone deaf, patrol this vicinity. None of them could see a white elephant run across a red table; and none of them could hear the loudest clap of thunder that ever pealed. The causes which produce myopia In the "North End" are wrapped in mys tery. It may' be the glare of the electric light, or the swift wind from the river. No one knows. Some allege blindness can bo produced-by rubbing the palms of the hands with an auriferous oil. It is also claimed this will produce deaf ness almost Instantly. Not being versed lir-the auricular and ocular sciences, the writer Is unable to' answer properly The object of thla communication la to show the reading public that the carping critics and fault-finders are wrong, and that the Chief Is right, and having attained that object I shall close.

Morris, of ihe banking Institution of Morrla Brothers A Christ tensen, haa returned from his Eastern trip. From the time he left Portland until he again set fo tn his home city, exactly fourteen days elapsed,- all of which, with - the exception of - two, -were spent on tha rosd. Many persons have Journeyed to the Atlantic seaboard and have spent more i time there than did Mr. Morris, but none , have returned' more enthusiastically, hopeful for. .the future of Portland and of Oregon than he.

Betterment of the local and auburban service waa the main Incent ive of the visit and Mr. Morrla has ac complished all he sought To a Journal reporter this morning he said: ' Z asters People reel Seenre. "The main point that atruck me in my brief trip was the feeling of secur ity that all -Easterners have In Oregon Investments. Every enterprise of mo ment that requires capital needa East" ern help. There are opportunitlea here, -but the money is there and we must have It. The. time was when money could not be secured, but that la differ- , ent now. In the city of Philadelphia the monled men are not only Investing their own m6ny In the West, but are urging their frlenda to do the same..

In the Eaat I met many of. tboae who ware here at that'tim. Not only have they, not lorgotten the impressions gained, but they have taken pains to tell others, all of, which in its own weight redounds to ine benept of Oregon.

Mr. Morris went and came over lines that paas near the flooded districts of the Middle West. He says the Platte . River Valley in Nebraska Is covered with water for a distance of 200 miles. '. It was net an uncommon sight. said he, "to see chickens roosting - on the house roof a. I never saw so much , water before, except, of course, where water la supposed- to be."
