the honor of hie wife, alsteror dautjh-
ter-,-the stand- taken by Dr. Clarence
True Wilson And '. other prominent
clergymen of Portland,
In advancing their beliefs they ex-
press the hope that the present grand
Jury may not return true bill against
., 8. Murray. Jr., who killed young
"Lincoln -Whitney week ago to avenge
his sister's honor. - They further -press
the belief that a trial jury can
not be found whtf will convict the
.young man even If he Is Indicted by the
grand Jury. ".
Open advocacy of such sentiments
are the direct result of a sermon de
llvered Sunday night by the Rev,' T,. B.
Tori, of Bunnyslde I Methodist- church,
s Mr. - Ford expressed, sympathy with
Murray, but stated at the same time
that, even though there might be
me case, tne murderer should be pun
; lahed. The law should take its course,
i h said. t '; , ,.
' aubjeot Is Bevlved. '
The subject was revived at the Meth
odist preachers' meeting' at Grace
church yesterday morning. Mr. Ford
reiterated hi" statements, which were
quickly, challenged by adherents of the
"unwritten-law" method. Dr. .Wilson
believed that Murray was thoroughly
Justified In Uking the Jaw into his own

Wilson expreaaed .his vlewa today.
"Should Murray be punished for
evening his slater's loaa of good name?"
he eald. "I think not. There la an
unwritten law prior to constitutions and
statutory enactments that a manly man
is the natural protector of the good
name and virtu of his sister, his wife
and hla daughter. And that law is as
sacred as any other.
Safeguard of Society,
"It does more to hold in check the
libertines who delight In forcing frail
and trembling virtue oft ths steep preci
pice of Infamy than all written laws
and courts of Justice. Men do not tri
ne with the virtus of young women In
communities-where- there te manhood

verity of ths penalty of this unwritten
law Is ths safeguard of society.

fall to bring In a true bill against young
Murray, or If - ths district attorney
should openly discharge him, , it would
be a great lmpetua to decency.

After hearing arguments on both

night and outlined an ordinance under
which a number of Improvements In tbs

must be made by the companies holding
franchlaea to string wires on poles.
This meaaurs la not exactly what ths
linemen's union wanted, nor la It all
that the Portland Railway LIght-A
Power company desired. Ths attorneys
of both sides were aaked not to attend,
and Messrs. Gray, Masters, Wallace and

framed what Is believed to bs A prac

serve on the grievance committee.
Judge Northrup poured oil on the
waves. of the storm. He said he. upon
consideration and inquiry, found that
his resolution would rather hurt Judge
Tanner than help him. This he did not
wish. Hs would trust to the supreme
court end would withdraw the resolu
tion and his motion to adopt This the
chair permitted.
The dlaousslon was ' undoubtedly pre
cipitated by the Introduction of A mo
tion providing that the private prosecu-

to eld the grievance committee In Its
work be retained, such sn offlolal hav
ing been found to be of great benefit
and aid to the work of ths committee.
Judge Charles H. Carey took this op
portunity to bring up the mstter of the
Tanner charges. He defended Judge
Tanner and painted him as a high
minded man possessed of sterling quali
ties and great worth. - Judge Carey said I
the commutes should never have filed
the charges sgalnst Mr. Tsnnsr.
Robert Piatt, secretary of ths meet
ing, wished Mr. Carey to be declared -out
of order, but ths chair would not so
ruls. Ths speaker then continued. He
said he was doubtful of the advisability
of having such an officer.
Mr. Holman took issus with Judge
Carey, contending that the grievance
committee ' was a necessity. The mo
tion to continue ths prosecutor was
adopted.
The annual meeting was called to or
der In the federal court room by B. B.
Beekman, 'vice-president. In ths absence
of President W. M. Cake. After ths
reports of ths officers had been read
and approved the following names were
-presented for- election to membership-)
and referred to the proper committee:
Max O. Cohen, F. F. Freeman, J. M.

The legislation committee aaked that
the legislature bs requested to provide
a stats commission to work with like
commissions for uniformity of lair
Among the different atates of the union.
The grievance committee made a re
port on It" work. It has preferred
i charges against six men and secured the
disbarment of one. The remaining casee
are pending in the supreme court.
In the afternoon Judge Webster took
up the discussion of needed legislation
with the association and presented
drafts of bills which he wished the as
sociation to Indorse before the legisla
ture. Tonight the members of the sssocia-
