that the Morris Brothers had la d their
plans for a huge new power plant on
the Clackamas to enter Into competi

Light & Power company.
ftWe own the land on both sides of the
Clackamas." said Mr. Morris this morn
ing;, -and we believe that we also own
the water rights in the river where we
re located. I acquired Utile to both
land and water nearly 16 years ago, and
was subsequently forced to buy the land
lust below the site for our power house,
as the Portland General Electrio com
pany, which owned it, threatened to do
all sorts of things to us if we tried to
put up power plant
"I' consider the action of Engineer
Sullivan in filing on the rights fn the
Clackamas as simply an attempt to
block our efforts to utilise this power.
"Whether It will succeed or not I do not
'know,' but I -certainly consider that the
water rights In the river adjacent to our
property belong to us. The water laws
In this state are hard to understand,
and it is possible that the entire matter
may have to go into the courts."
Mr, Morris said, however."! that he was
going ahead with I work, on the power
plant," and would ! look over the ma
chinery And water power planjs among

( - "I do not think we will have any trou

limits." said he. "because It is generally
' understood that we are a bona fide firm,
and can carry out whatever we under
take to do."
He said he would not apply for a
; franchise Into Portland until the plant
: was nearly completed.

FARE TO SWIFT PACKING
PLANT WILL BE 1 0 CENTS
General Manager Fuller Intimates at Council Meeting
That Extra Nickel Will Be Collected Between Ter
minus of Proposed New Line and City Limits.
The fact that the Portland Railway,
Light ft Power company Intends to
chargo an extra fare efrora the city lim
its to the Swift packing plant was ex
torted from F.;I: Fuller, general man
ager of the company, this morning when
he was asked point blank by. Council
man Kellaher If It was the intention of
the company to make a fare, of no more
than E centa The railway official re
plied that his company . had not con
sidered the rate It would establish, but
that If he were given a vote, when It
came time to fix the rate, he wonld cer
tainly favor a 10 cent charge.
Mr. Kellaher then Introduced an
amendment to section 12 of the ordi
nance which provides that the company
may collect no more than 6 cents for
a single fare In any one direction with
in the city limits by adding the words,
"the council shall reserve the right to
regulate fares at all times." Those who
voted against the city having this power
of regulation were Annand. Baker,
Reldlng, Bennett, Driscoll, Dunning, Wal
lace and Wills. Concannon. CotteU Kel
laher and Rushlight voted for the
amendment, which was lost.
Another section, which gave the com
pany the right to charge such rates as it
pleases for observation, funeral and
other special -cars, was referred, to the
city . attorney for Investigation.
fcectlon 8 was amended by adoption of
Councilman Bennett's resolution to in
sert a provision whereby the company
must obtain the consent of the council
before It can abandon any street on
whlcn It has a franchise. The attorney
for the railway, who was present, ob
jected to this amendment on the ground
that the city council could force -the
company to maintain useless tracks Into
and out of the car barns. Councilman
Bennett explained that' the council

DR. PEARSONS PRAISES .
PACIFIC'S DORMITORY
The dormitory at the Pacific univer
sity and Us arrangement In general was
praised most enthusiastically yesterday
evening by Dr. D. K. Pearsons, thet-nt
cago philanthropist, at the luncheon
given film at the Hotel Portland by the
university trustees. Ir. Pearsons spent
Sunday flt Forest Grove, the guest of
the Institution to which 10 years ago
he gave 5o,000, and which is to Dene-
fit further, in all probability, by the
generosity of the visitor.
Dr. Pearsons said the appointments
of the dormitory were excellent In every
way and that everything considered the
building and the arrangements were the
finest that he had evr een In a uni
versity of Pacific's size. Dr. Pearsons
was most enthusiastic In his remarks
and showed clearly that he had taken
great Interest in the buildings and
grounds during his short stay. He said
tlint he had had considerable, experience
In the dormitory line an he had built
several such buildings for other col
leges and rn this account he thought
he was able to speak from personal
knowledge.
The millionaire recommended that the
present heating facilities be so altered
hat the heat would come from one
building located some distance away
from the main buildings This was the
best system, he thought, for various
reasons, principally because it removed
all possibility of fire from a defective
furnace or other heating apparatus.
Dr. Pearsons, although 5 years old,
travels alone. He left last night for
Pasadena, Cal., where he will spend the
winter.

amendment warn Annand.
Just before the session .ended and
while City Attorney Kavanaugh w
calling the attention of the council to
the fact that section IS of the railway
company's ordinance was In violation
of the city charter. Councilman Annand
tried to override the protest of the city's
legal adviser by moving to adopt the
whole section before any discussion had
been allowed. A motion to adjourn pre
vented a vote being taken on Annand s
motion. '. '
Section It relates to the forfeiture of
franchises when the tracks on streets
have not been built and completed with
in the time set forth in the franchise.
The wording of this section Is such as
to make the time limit depend almost
entirely upon the will of the company.
Another debate arose when section 7
came up, providing that the railway
company shall pay one fourth of the
cost of bridges, fills or elevated road
ways when It has a track along the
street where these Improvements are
made. City Attorney Kavanaugh sub
mitted an amendment providing that
the company must pay Its share when
It has a franchise on such streets
whether or not it has a track built.
This amendment was adODted and then
further amended at the behest of the
ra.ilwav attorney so as to make it sd
ply only to franchises hereafter granted
and not to those already held by the
com nan v.
' Councilman Kellaher was opposed to
aocedinv to this demand or the com'
pany. He tnougnt it ougnt to oe rorcea
to pay for bridges and fills along
streets wherever It now holds a fran
chise, Hs thought if the city demanded
this as a condition of granting the
franchise now asked the company would
yield.

Dr. Pohl Tells Teacherf How

Unabated interest in the proceedings
of the county teachers' Institute was
shown by the large attendance at the
opening this morning of the second
day of the annual event Following the
usual opening musical exercises. Pro
fessor Edward O. Sisson of the Univer
sity of Washington was Introduced by
Professor T. T. Davie, who presided
over the morning's deliberations.
Professor . Sisson spoke on "The
Spirit of Discipline.'' He was both In
teresting and Instructive and soon con
vlnced t his audience that discipline,
while important. Is really one of the
simplest of all the troubles that beset
a school' teacher. Continuing he said
'There are three elements hi the
spirit of discipline light of reason.

"The will of a child Is the totality
of that child's being. It Is what he
really is. A child Is built to be noisy
and is to be trained by gradual pro

"Actual school work, of value Is im

mand. The will of a child is a navering
will. As he grows older he begins to
take on.more responsibility. The power
of influence depends upon strength .of

One of the most interesting and In

Case of Ecssma.
How do medical firms -secure the tes

This Is a question which no doubt
every reader of The Journal has oc
casionally asked himself.
Well, testimonials are obtained in va
rious ways. Some are undoubtedly not
sincere; they are written by friends of
advertisers or by employes. It is al
leged that In some cases testimonials
are even paid for a species of bribery
which cannot be condemned too highly.
But contrary to general opinion, it Is
a fact that at least a large number of
testimonials are genuine and sincere.
They are usually given by people who

out of his way to find sufferers and to

Three more appeals from the action
of the oounty board of equalization In
refusing to grant reductions of. assess
ment were filed with County Clerk.
Fields late yesterday afternoon, 'making
five concerns In all that will go Into
the circuit court, in an effort to have
their taxes reduced- or cancelled.
four of the appeals are by big Imple
ment firms. They allege that the as
sessor overhauled their stocks and that
large assessments on money, notes and
accounts should be expunged. The
notes, they declare, are payable In oth
er states, and the property on which
they hold mortgages is taxed where It
is located, tney declare, so that assess
ment here would make double taxation.
The Buffalo Pitts' company was as'
sessed 830,000 on merchandise and ttQ.
000 on money, notes and accounts, and
the board refused to reduoe the figures.
The company claimed that the aggre-

VANISHES WHEN HE .
LEAVES HOTEL IN .
ALBANY YESTERDAY
Although officers throughout the
state have been put on guard to pre
vent the escape of F. Theorln, who is
wanted for the murder of M. C Rasmus
sen, he has not- been recognised since
he was seen In Albanv veaterdnv morn
ing. Sheriff Stevens dispatcntd two of
nis deputies to Alhany last night, and
they are assisting n the setron In that
section of the st.it.
.This morning a telephone message
came ftom Deputy Sheriff Beatty at
Aioany, saying mere is no aouot mat
ine suspected man was mere vesterdav.
Two men who had known Theorln shook
hands with him nnd talked with him.
and there is no doubt In th Identifica
tion. It was learned that Theorln
stopped at the Franklin house In Albany
Monday night He carried a small grip,
and left this In his room when he went
to breakfast at a restaurant He called
for a Portland newspaper and read It
with some care. Later he returned to
the hotel and secured his grlpt That
was about 0 o'clock yesterday morning.
and that was the last time he was seen
in Albany.
Sheriff Stevens thinks that Theorln
may try to work his way back to Port
land or through Portland to Puget
sound, with the Idea of getting to sea.
Vigilance will therefore be redoubled
In watching all departing ships from the
harbors of Oregon and Washington.
Telephone messages have also been sent
to all towns as far south ss Ashland,
giving a description of the man and ask-
ng ror nis apprenension.
Manv of the officers believe that he is
In hiding in Albany or In that vicinity.
This is on the theory that after reading
tne aearcn in progress ne wouia dc
raid to try to reach a eeiport, and
amid seek to disguise himself as a
farmhand or t hobo. Deputy Sheriff
Beatty is directing the search at Albany
while Deputy Sheriff Hutfkaby Is scour
ing the country with a livery rig in tha
hope of locating' some farmer who has
seen the fugitive. His ultimate cap
ture is believed to be certain, although
he Is known to be shrewd and resource
ful and may do the unexpected thing.
