' , Martin L. Pipes. "About Council Creft,"
he supplemented.: .Then he went on to
explain. Judge Pipes la a lover of the
beautiful and a. loyal friend ot the city
; pf Portland and thoae things which are
conducive, or would be, to the better
, ment of the city. He believes that. the
one logical -and r natural site lot a
park, open to the people and the visit-
ore who come to Portland. Is the top of
Council Crest 'a
"It is a shame," continued Judge
' Pipes, "that Portland has not set aside
the Crest for a park. There Is fhe one
place where we all take, those who
come to see the city. There Is the one
place where ' we can show all of . the
wonderful scenery of the city in pan
orama. It ought to be set aside and
maintained as a show place. I think
the city should buy it. Improve it, put
In drives and promenades and boule
vards ana make it tne most dcsuuiui
' spot In the city where, wo could take
our guests who come to see Portland
yand show 'them the moat wonderful
view they have, ever .seen or will ever
see unless tney come dsck xor a sec
r -on1 look:
"Portland is a city of flowers. It
Is famous all over the world as a
cltT of flowers. Hare the rose is queen.
I believe, that the city should secure
the top of Council Crest, employ a cap
able landscape gardener, plan the park
as a big rose garden and keep it as
such. It would be a wonderful sight,
something that no other city In the
world couia .snow .in. its. visitors.
O-rsndsst of Scenery.
"All neople love beautiful scenery.
It makes the deepest- tiflpreeaioa- en the
nuraan mind or anything, wrist mental
pictures would Portland visitors carry
away with them then,, should they be
taken to the top of Council Crest,
where standing in the roldst ef a beauti
ful bower of Portland roues they could
look out on all sides and see such won
derful scenery as that spreading out
on every side of the big mountain. As
an advertisement of the' beauties of
the city and as a source-of civic pride it
could not be equalled in any other city
of the world.
"I think that all artificial things
should be cleared off the Crest, that
It should be made as near to nature as
possible, snd maintained as a bower
of bloom and a place of beautv for the
advertisement of the 'City, the wonder
or visitors ana tne pleasure or the peo-
File of Portland. If I can aid In brlng
nc thla about I am to be counted In
the harness, for I am, and long have
neen, n entnusiast over tne possibili
ties of Council Crest."
Judge Pipes says that a large num
ber of men in the city have discussed
. the question with htm; and that he is
confident that there is a strong public
sentiment now existing in favor of the
acquisition of Council Crest by the city
a pars sue. tic is in raver or start

Presiding Judge Bronaugh In the cir

creasing the bond of Fvank BoUara
from 11090 to $5000 in th suit brought
by Bollam to rtrln'the county court
from giving a awii w the county poor

of the bond Is to secure the Interests
of 'the defendants against loss on ' ac

defeated In the trial..
Martin I Pipes appeared for Span
ton and his associates and declared that
the sum of $1000 is much too small in
a ease involving a 1164.000 deal, as the
interest on the money in one month
would be a greater sum. E.. V. Little
field, representing Bollam, . said he
thought the sum sufficient but did
not make a stre-nuoustflght against an
Increase. It was agreed that the lay
creased bond shall be filed Monday.

IMPUGNS MOTIVES
OF DAIRYMAN
"We did everything that we could
possibly do for Rolfes," said Paul V.
Maris, deputy dairy and food commis
sioner, this morning. "When he told
us that his herd was idiseased we told
blm to 'stop the fcale of his milk from
his diseased, cows, notified the state
veterinarian and were aasured by Rolfes
that he would not sell any more of
the milk from the sick cows. We con
sidered that we had done our duty In
that we had done all that we could
de but still made further inquiries about
the matter. -
"Dr. Craemer, a reputable veteri
narian, whom Rolfes emplered, told us
that the herd appeared to be perfectly
normal in all respects. He tried his
best to find some evidence of tubercu-
Josls but coutd not so that we could
lo nothing but wait till the state
veterinarian got back from his trip
to eastern Oregon before taking any
further action..
"To us it seemed that Rolfes had
other than the right motives in re
porting this case. He has his herd
mortgaged for more than half their
value and It is said wants to keen from
paying the rest of the purchase cost.
He has not acted sensibly all through
his trouble and we think that nothing
but a motive other than what is right.

It is said that Alfred Hlnes of Wasoo,

Schandoney Implement, secured a patent
and sold numbers of his hitches to
farmers in Gilliam and , Wheeler coun
ties. Farmers using combined harvest
ers and other heavy machines were
eager purchasers. ' .
The owrers of the original patents
claimed that the Hinea hitch was an in
fringement and secured an injunction
against the Hines people either making
or selling their device. Deputy Marshal
Griffith has prders to stop the use of
the infringing hitches and will be com

extent of stopping harvesting operations
