COURTENEY OBJECTS - AND SPOILS THE PLAN Hunt's New Patrolmen Nearly Al Too Old to Take.Exam- (nations for Places. . ' A, A. Courteney blocked the proposi tion to Increase the age limit for applt cants for. the police department from 19 to 41 years, and for the are depart ment from 19 to tS years, at the meet Ing of the civil service commission yes terday afternoon, and Insinuated "very strongly inac tne change waa desired for political reasons. Tbeee age limits ehould sot ba changed; not at preaent . at any rate." aald Mr. Courteney, when i the matter waa suggested. "1 refuse to take thla up until I have gone Into It very -thoroughly. ' It haa been but a abort time atnoe we had the preaent age limit un der consideration, and we discussed it very thoroughly before we came to deciaion.1 .-.. It was explained that there 'waa dearth of eppllcanta for positions In tha police and lire departments, because of the low age limit; that many capable maa over the age limit -were applying for positions, and that Chief Hunt and Chief Campbell reedmmended a change for the good of the service, aa older mea were ateadier la their work. - A lengthy communication waa read from Chief Hunt, In which he etated that the beat officers on the force ware between 44 and i . yaa.fifagBccretaryfl. McPheraon explained that there about 109 applicationa for 44 positions on tha police force, and t applicationa for or 10 vacanciee in tne nre aepart- ment. - " ' i"- ' v membera of tha engineers federa tion bad told him that it waa impossible to get competent engineers IV years of axe. aa men had barely finished their apprenticeship by that time, and asked that the-age limit do raiaeu. - - ' "Favorites who have been In the de partment and nave left desire the age limit changed so that they can come back," aald Courteney. -"I take exception to your statement.' aald Mayor William - "I hardly be lieve that any of those applicant has ever been In the department." . - "Several men have epproacnea me and asked that arrangement be made ao that they could get back," replied Conrtenev.V The result of the refusal to raise the age limit la that not more than half of the offlcera selected by Chief Hunt and tha nolice commissioners and given tem porary appointment by Mayor Williams will be permiliea to waa uia examina tion for permanent -positions. Bach will have to get a uniform, belt and nlatoL which will cost not leaa than 130 for a 4 days' Job, at 17i a month aal- It waa aeciaea to noia examinations for-englneera Apru li; Bremen, Apru 11. and patrolmen. April . Such an arrangement wUI give Chief Hunt'a ii appointee at least 14 days' employ ment Money for salaries will be appro nriatad by the council tomorrow; Fri day the appointments will be confirmed by the executive Doara ana men cmoi Hunt Will be ponnutea o ueign iirem to duty. Aa tha examinations will not be held until April z. after which It win take time to correct the papers, tha eligible Hat win not ba certified to Chief Hunt before 14 daye..; i COURT WILL DECIDE y WHAT A NEWSPAPER IS The judgea of .the tHrcult court will be asked by the city council to decide the queetion Involved in letting the con tract for tha city printing. - The Port land Dally A be tract waa tha loweat bid der for the city printing, and tha qnea tlon arose as to whether It waa a news paper, as required by tha charter. City Attorney McNary waa of tha opinion that It did not cover the requirement. aa ft waa a clase .. paper instead . of a paper of general news, MoNary and Judge X IV Bloomfleld. representing the Portland uaiiy a Detract, wui sunmu tne question to Judge George on a statement of facta, asking that tha circuit Judge alt en bano to decide the matter. The proposition to give Health Officer H. R. Bleradorf another aaalstant failed. ' It waa decided to Increase Deputy Health OUloer W. Beutalspacher'a aalary to $84 month. ' . , ,-, v y -,. . w i THEBE CONTEST WILL CE 'PRACTICALLY DECIDED Good Citizens Should , Register and Show Their Preferences : . by' Direct ' Nominations, ( North end voter have registered In sufficient number to Insure the nomi nation of Mayor George H. Williams aa the Republican candidate, oa the face of the record up to .thla time. If tha pri mary nomination election were held to morrow. Mayor Wllliama would receive a substantial majority of the votes of his party-and would be the candidate, Thla conclusion is warranted by a dose watch of the registration and' an examination of the list of electors who bava beea enrolled.:.-, v- . ? ... Unleaa ef forta be made by . the' oppo nents of Mayor wllliama, the direct primary-nominations law, heralded a :th trusty . weapon of ! the anti-machine force,, will have beea used effectively to Insure the retention of power In hi party by the present Incumbent "of the chief executiva'a office ef thla city. - ' - Whan County Clerk Field closed his Office Saturday night (.414 voters had been registered as to party affiliation for tha primaries. Of these. 1,114 Be publloana and 141 Democrat, or 1,411 In all. were registered last fall Juat be fore the presidential election. - Since the book were opened on March 14 thta year, 4,474 Republicans and 444 Demo crats, or 1.444 in all have been enrolled, bringing the total to 4.614. troaa; Baoagh t Spread Bnwior, ' .When the reglatration book ware opened thia year, the announcement waa made that the political elementa that heretofore bad constituted : what waa called the Mitchell-Carey-iMatthewa ma chine would not take a part la the city election. It waa circulated aa an ascer tained fact that the Matthews support era had been scattered, and that the ma chine had fallen to piece. TBI report waa spread apparently by the machine1 Itself, for the voters that alway have been controlled by the machine have been brought out In such numbers a to Insure the" Republican nomination to George H. Wuiums,-unless his oppo nents show great energy for the 14 days that remain,' . ", - It la apparent that absolutely no or- ganlaed effort ha yet been made In tha Interest of any antl-machlne candidate. "The card are . a tacked for Mayor Wllliama," aald a politician laat night, who ha kept posted on the progrea of the reglatration, land, were the nominat ing election to be held now, the preaent Incumbent would be renominated for the mayoralty. Tha direct primary nomina tion law 1 all right, but It. ia Ilka a Damascus sword possessed by a brave knight who doe not uae It, but who al lows his adversary to uae It to destroy it owner.. Of what uae 1 the new law If the people are aot going to uae It to the destruction ot the machine man la politics r - .-.'.:.. r v.? -'" SCsBtn's- lrograsa, Fred T. Merrill, who com eo. out on aa open town platform, ia muustriousiy working to gat hi menaa tntereacex It, seem to be the Impression that ha wiahes the nomination of someone "op posed to the policies - of the 'present mayor, so that -be himself may run on aa Independent platform and fall heir to the open town support that would go to Wllliama were he to receive the Republi can nomination. - ' ' Another conclusion drawn from the registration of Democrats to thla time, la that George H. Thomas ba a majority of those already enrolled. ' Practically no work ba been done for Dr. Harry Jbane. Thl I due tO'the fact that Dr. Lane finally determined to be a candidate only laat week and haa not had time to get hie forces at work to get the voters to register. . From thl time on, there will be lively .work among the Democrat, and efforts will be made to get them out. TERKES ACQOTRESireW -.TITLE AND MORE SALARY SL . G. .
