WCRLEIN DEFIES
THE COMMISSION
Refuses to Appoint a Clerk
. Properly Certified from the
Civil Service List.
ONLY MAN WHO STOOD
TEST FAILS TO GET PLACE
City Charter Provides Very Se
vere Penalty for Persons
Who Disobey Rules.
City Treasurer Werleln is showing a
defiant attitude toward the city civil
service commission over the appointment
of a olerk for hla office. The difficulty
bids fair to develop Into serious trou
ble, snd may result In the commission
attempting to force a clerk upon Mr.
Werleln.
On Nov. II the civil service commis
sion certintd the name of Edwin W.
Jones to Mr. Werleln as the only parson
on the eligible list. Two days later a
communication waa aent him by the
commission asking when he Intended
to make the appointment of the clerk.
This Incensed Mr. Werleln. as he
thought the commission was altogether
too eager In the matter.
J. 8. P. Copeland, who has a tempo
rary appointment as clerk for 10 days,
failed to pasa the examination. He la
still retained In the office, and Mr. Wer
leln states hs will keep him until Deo.
T, when his temporary appointment expires.
When ssked If he Intends making the
appointment of Edwin W. Jones, he re
plied that he did not think he would.
"Information has coma to ma," he
atated, "that the civil service commis
sion haa singled out this department,
and that It haa boasted that It Is going
tp make me 'corns to time' In regard
to appointments of clerks. I am now
of , the opinion that I will run my office
to suit myself.
When asked what steps ths commls
slon Intends taking In the matter, P.
I.. Willis, a member, stated that he did
not know, but he thought the trouble
would be amicably adjusted.
Mayor Williams Is also of the opinion
that the -breach will not be serious. He
la trying to settle the row.
Three months ago Mr. Werleln had
serious trouble with the commission. A
lint of ellglbles was certified to him,
but W. N. Carter was ths only one who
consented to take the position. Mr Wer
leln refused to accept him, and although
ths commission attempted to compel him
to do so. he Anally won ha point Mrs.
Werleln was taken Into the office to as
sist In ths work until Mr. Copeland re
ceived the temporary appointment. At
the recent. examination for clerks only
one out of M applicants stood the test.
It la hinted that In case Mr. Werl'ln
continues to maintain his defiant atti
tude, the commission will attempt to
force him to accept Mr. Jones. Accord
ing to section 120 of the city charter, U
the treasurer attempts to override the
civil service rules he te held liable te
arrest on a Charge of misdemeanor. In
case he is found guilty in any of ths
circuit courts of the state, the misde
meanor is punishable by a fine of. not leas
than 126 nor more than 1600, or by Im
prisonment in ths eounty Jail for not
longer than one year.
f
LOTTERY CASES ARE" '
NOT PROSECUTED
It looks as If the oases in which ar
rests were made by the sheriff's
deputies for alleged violations of the
laws prohibiting lotteries sre to be
Ignored by District Attorney Manning's
office. '
Several raids were made on places
which have 'the reputation of being lot
tery "Joints," and a number of arrests
followed. Lee Foo and a number of
other defendants were to have been tried
last Tuesday, but the prisoners were
not taken Into court, no representative
of the district attorney appeared, and
nobody was present for ths defense.
"I don't know anything about It." said
Alvln Reed, clerk of the court. "The
trial of Lee Foo and several other
Chinese was to have taken place Tues
day, but nobody appeared for either
side. We shall do nothing unless either
the prosecution or defense makes some
move In the matter."
CANNOT FIND MAN
CHARGED WITH CRIME
After searching for James A. Murphy,
a painter, for several days the police
have discovered that he left the city
Monday or Tuesday evening. He Is
wanted on a charge of forgery preferred
by F. J. Browning, proprietor of the
Browning baths, st 141 First street.
It Is alleged In the complaint, filed In
the police court, that Murphy secured
the lndoraement of Browning to a check
for 117. SO, supposedly drawn on the
Merchants' National bank by W. L.
Bachelor.
Before Murphy left town he Informed
a number of hla friends that he Intended
making a trip to San Francisco. The
police believe, however, that he made
this statement In order to mislead them,
and that hs Is now In Seattle. They have
communicated concerning Murphy with
the Seattle and San Francisco police.
FEDERAL COURTS ALONE
HAVE JURISDICTION
Owing to a question of court Jurisdic
tion It Is likely that J. A Buckley will
not be prosecuted for slleged aasault on
L. L. Leadbstter.
Young Leadbetter and Buckley had
been at the La Camas mills and were on
their way to thla city on a steamer when
the trouble occurred. As a result of the
trouble Buckley waa charged with as
sault and battery
Becauae the affray occurred on board
ship, Ernest Brand, representing Dis
trict Attorney Manning, says ths federal
courts alone have Jurisdiction. Accord
ingly, on his motion, the case was In
definitely continued.

PUSHING ROAD FROM
THE DALIES TO DUFER
Crest Southsrn Railroad Com
pany WiH Havs ths Line In
.Operation Next Summer.
- Aa soon as construction trains Can be
put on ths line the Oreat Southern
Railroad company will push construc
tion of the line on south from Dufer.
The first 10 miles, from Ths Dalles to
Dufer, la now graded and ready for the
rails. Iron hss been purchased, and
will be laid as rapidly as possible.
"We will have the road In operation
aa far south as Dufer next summer."
says Julius Meier, who is" secretsry of
ths corporation and purchasing agent
of the company. "We do not expect to
stop at Dufer. The road la being sur
veyed southward, and ws will probably
go to Bend. That la a fine country, of
great reaourcea, and fully capable of
supporting two railroads, even ahould
any other road be extended to that
point."
It has always been auppoaad that the
Columbia Southern waa to be extended
from Shanlko to Bend, but since ths
Deschutes people have established an
automobile road between thoaa two
points and Invested a large amount of
money In the building of the road, and
Its equipment, the Idea prevails that
there Is no likelihood of an extension of
the Columbia Southern. So f ar ss pres
ent prospects Indicate, the new Itao
from Dufer would have) sole posses
sion of the buslnsss of ths Bsnd coun
try, excepting that which will go to the
automobile road and the Columbia
Southern via Shanlko.
