In an opinion In which City Attorney
Kavanaugh answers six questions asked
by the members of the special franchise
committee relative to the city's rights
In the franchises held by the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company, he
closes his opinion with the significant
sentence that "the Investigation of the
franchisee granted before the present
charter went Into effect Illustrates the
necessity of vigilance In granting new
franchises," which liberally interpreted
has been taken to mean that the city
has practically no recourse to compel
the railway company to accede to the
city's demands for better service.
Few opinions from the city attorney's
office have been looked forward to by
the council with so much Interest, be
cause behind the answer to the ques
tions lies the decision of the council
In regard to passing a new franchise
to the company.
Ksgaxdicg Revocation,
The first question asked by the com
mittee was whether the franchises now
held by the railway company are sub
ject to revocation by reason of the fail
ure of the company to construct cer
tain portions of the lines mentioned in
tha. franchise.
In anwertng this question the city
to examine nine Iran
singly admitted that the lenders were
chises, and his opinion on the question
covers each franchise. He holds first
that a franchise is a contract the obli
gation of which cannot be impaired, and
in regard to soma of the franchises,
none can be revoked if the company aa

Washington, July 21. Senator Owen
Of. Oklahoma Is to be one of the re-
wlthout being relieved from all.
City Attorney Kavanauch's opinion
on this question Is that the company
may under certain conditions be relieved
from certain parts without being re
lieved from nil. Rut the city, according
to t no opinion, would not have the right
power to relieve the company from a
portion of its active franchise, except
as provided in section 4 of the fran
chises of the Portland Railway com
pany and the City & Suburban company,
which provides that the company can be
fined for failure to run cars overs its
tracks and after a period of 30 days can
compel the company to forfeit the por
tion of line, over which it failed to run
cars.

This decision was reached today after
a long consultation at which official
dispatches from the scene of the revolt
were read. The conference was held at
tho French embassy and was shrouded
In the greatest secrecy. It was not
until late today that the United Press
was authoritatively informed of tho de
cision that had been made.
The official reports received here
today that led to the conference
stated that the uprising, which
started a week ago In eastern Mace

miltun's pay corps to arrive at the
barracks on time, has spread to all
portions of Macedonia. The outrage
yesterday on the capture of a mlltary

feared the uprising will become gen

a stenographer should be Interested In

become a mere mercenary hireling.

Miss Julia Beth Farrel, of North
western university, Evanston, 111., is a
practical Instructor who realizes the
importance of her work. She snld the
art of reading Is comparatively new
and so depreciated because of the mis
takes it has not yet outgrown.
One school stood for realism and an
other for technicality while the Ideal
school must combine both and so get
naturalness. She holds that reading
Is a good development as a medium
of expressing thought; that while words
are not Inflection and Inflections are
not words that together they put
thoughts Into their best form; that lit
erature Is best taught by dealing di
rectly with the author and by reading
his works aloud for many turns of
thought can be secured only by shad
ing of expression In reading.

Chicago. July' 21. K. P. Ripley, presi
dent of the Santa. Fo railroad, has Is
sued a reply to the plea for a "cam
paign of education" made by Tl (,'.
Barlow, executive oirecior ox ine . ni
cago Association ef Commerce, against
em advance in freight rates.
State and national regulation of rail
roads, according to Ripley, has been
persecution. In the course of his letter,
Ripley says:
"A vear ago our critics were asklnf
why we did not spend money faster,
why we did not double, our Investment,
why we could not furnish enough track,
enough power, enough cars. Now thev
ask us why we did not keep our money,
and say we ought to have foreseen tha
lean period.'
"Tho facts are. even on the enormous
business of last year, the margin of
profit made by the railroads In general
was not large enough for safety, and
even with a continuance of heavy
traffic an Increase in rates would be
necessary If the roads are to retain
their credit and ability to create th
facilities wh'ch the public demands.
"Give us a square deal a chance to
live or let the government take us.
becnuse the present, conditions are Im
possible." HOUSE SHOW DDE?
GUESS WHO HE IS?
Deep Interest centers In the selection
of the Judge for the coming annual
horse show, nnd It Is whispered that a
genuine surprise will be sprung on the
public when the Plunt club officials are
ready to make announcement of tha
nnme. That a man of more than i
tional prominence will officiate Is
pretty well understood, but until defi
nite arrangement Is consummated his
name cannot be made public. That a
man of this prominence considers the
poi-itlon an honor Indicates very clearly
that Portland's horse show has attracted
attention all over the country and
ranks right at the top In equine exhi
bition. The fine collection of silver cups
which Is being donated from points all
over the northwest ts another Indica
tion that the October event will attract
an unusually large out-of-town attend
ance and la considered one of the most
important events of the season. De
spite the excessive heat of the past
week, Interest and enthusiasm among
the Hunt club officials and members Is
unabated, and things are progressing
with a swing and evenness which can
only result in great success.
