One Commission safeguard.
John F.' Logan Introduced a motion
' for the retention of the civil service
commission. He said that the report
nt tha committee, which was strongly i
in favor of this system as it is now
conducted, ought to be adopted.
-The only way to stop ring rule.
; which is bound to come with the new
council, no . matter-how elected. Is to
have the commission qualify appointees
as heretofore. Otherwise the distrlbu-
. tlon of patronage will be uBed as a
lever to keep one clique In of flee as
long as the city stands," said Mr, Lo-
v ran. we cannoi got nj uciici .mcu
than we have now In the council. Wo
have been up in the clouds, and It la
time that we alight from our aero
planes. Without the safeguard of a
civil service commission the city will
face a worse machine than those rlng
sters, Joe Simon and Jack ' Mathews,
ever dreamed of."
Bow, to 2111 Vacancies.
The report on the civil service com
t mission was read by Dr. Kllot It
' practically asks for the retention of
the present system. ' In cases of re
moral It provides that vacancies shall
be filled by circuit court Judges or If
they do not -appoint then By the gov
ernor. In cases of removals no appeal
Is provided for except when the Incum
bent was taken out for political or re
ligious reasons.
The report of the committee on exe
cutive favore the election of only three
city offices besides the mayor and
council. These are auditor, municipal
Judge and treasurer. All 'Others are to
be appointive If the report Is adopted.
The appointment -of the mayor must be
concurred In by five of the council.
Several reports were not discussed at
the meeting because there wore so few
members present that It was thought
better to wait until another session of
the board, when a larger quorum should
be- on hand.
Attorney John F. Watt, who was la.
dieted by the September grand Jury on
a charge of converting $1,000 of a ell
enfs ball money to his own use, will
either escape punishment or be Indicted
by another a rand Jury on a different
charge. When the oase was called yes
terday morning Dr. William Eisea, the
prosecuting witness, testified that
Watts stole his receipt for the 11.000
and drew down the bail money. Watts'
attorneys claimed that the proaeoutlon
had not proved embaalement or "con
verting money to his own use','' and
the rase was thrown out of court. A
charge of larceny may be brought, how
ever.
It was charred In the Indictment that
watts, who had been employed by Dr.
Klaen as attorney to defend him for a
criminal offense, substituted a paper
bond for $1,600 In place of Dr. Elsen's
i.ouo "lawful monev or the united
States," and that on receiving . the
money Watts converted 'it to his own
use.

to Dr. Elsen, In exchange for his serv
ices, bui Instead Watts stole the phy
sician's receipt for his ball from Dr.
El ilea's home while the latter was In
lxis Angeles and drew the money. This
is denied by Watts.
The case was brought before the
grand Jury during September and Watts
was Indicted. Dr. Eisen is appearing in
the case as prosecuting witness. In the
oase of the state of Oregon against Dr.
Elsen, the physician' was found guilty
and fined $500 by Judge O'Day, who la
now acting as on of the attorneys for
Watts. John Dltchburn and W. W.
Banks are acting as associate counsel
with Judge O'Day. while Demitv Dis
trict Attorneys Vreeland and. Pago are J
prosecuting me case.
Watt Drew Honey, Says risen.
Deputy County Clerk H. C. Smith was
the first witness called. He testified
that $1,000 ball was deposited with the
county clerk durlnjf October, 1907, and
that on January 23, 1908, Watts ap
peared with the receipt and drew the
money out, substituting a paper bond
for $1,600 in place of the $1,1)00. This
testimony was objected to by the de
fense on the grounds that the hail wu

up by Dr. Elsen and not lawful money
