Water ' users generally, among tha rank and - ' file of the cltlxenahlp, are back of the meter and believe that it is tne only fair, and just solution of tha water service Question. Jt la Dolnted out that nearly all of tha .wealthy residents of the city have their residences equipped with meters in . order that they shall pay for what they is and not according to the number or later futures they may have in their houses, - 1 It is pointed out again that 'the In f stallation of the meter stops waste, ( -prevents carelessness in-the use ofiwa- ter and thereby "conserves the supply.

The' landlords and the , tenants of apartment houses throughout the city, ; and 1n residences generally, desire the installation of meters. They contend that it is not fair or just for two. peo ple living in one flat to pay. the-same ' amount for ..the water the v use as - is . paid pv six people living in tne next list. ; ' i'. - ' : Many Arguments Presented. These and many more arguments are being raised by those , in. favor or the , meter system to show-that the fair way to the people of the city In their use of water, would be to measure It out to ttiem and let them pay according to the consumption. . The water board yesterday went on record against the further Increase of me metered district or tne city. The residents or ; the city who have heen .-clamoring for meters at their places of . resilience ana ousiness are now turn ing, their attention to other means of forcing meter Installation. It is prob- oi'ie mat; oeimiie steps will be taken within a few days to start a pro-meter cm m;,algn, which will override the pro hibition of the water board. FORSAKES FARM TO EDUCATE CHILDREN Dayton, Wash., Sept 21. Henry - James, a farmer living six miles north of Dayton, faces the alternative of tnov ; ing his family to town or letting his ... children grow up without an education, with the opening of schools of the county. Mr. James finds that ho ih only resident in his district having chil-j -urcir j Knom age. jne Duying up or small farms in-he district by largo . land owners has caused a depopulation of the district, forcing Mr. James lit erally from the farm. He is a pro gressive American- and -will move to ...'Dayton In order to school his children. Alarming ieereBses In school atten- s. dence Is noted In other districts of this county, a condition which is duplicated in other agricultural communities of the Inland Empire. The school census or this county this year shows a decided j Kiting on over tne previous year. Springing a sensation at Ihe arraign ment of Harry Holland and Jack Rob ertson, auto apeed manlara charged with manalauchter. Justice of the Peace Olson Monday afternoon fixed Hi hail of the two at ISO.OOO each. "Hecauae theeo men fnce a moat serl oua charge and.

Kosa, Eva and Anna Mever and Holland and Robertson were riding, plunged over an embank ment at the gravel bit turn on the G res ham road Sunday morning and tur ned. Mrs. Ferrers was killed. Escap ing Injury the others were arrested, the e-lrla as witnesses and ths youths on charges of manslaughter. And then the whole tale came oat. Deavlng Portland about 11 o'clock, the party took the bl Ladd machine, of which Holland is the hired driver, and went to the Twelve-Mile house. Speed ing from the Inn about 2 o'clock, Rob ertson was driving the machine. Skidding around ths gravel nit turn, the heavy machine slipped off the road and toppled oyer a low embankment Mrs. Ferrera. divorced wife of Attor ney Albert B. Ferrera waa thrown head lone. She died immediately. Miraculously, the five escaped death or injury. Shaken and frightened. Rob ertaon ran to the road house, a short distance away. Deputy Coroner J. J.

The three Meyer sisters are being held in 11000 oau. wnicn nas not yet been' furnished Evidence at Znqnest Evidence against. Robertson and Hnll- nd was vitally strengthened at the In quest which was held about 6 o'clock ast night That Robertson was under the influence of liquor when the party in notorious iweive Mile house, was shown. "Both Robertson and Ifnllnnrf hn1 nev. eral drinks at the bar and with myself, my sisters and Dollv. Ferrera t th Twelve Mile house," testified Eva Meyer at tha inquest. "He wjts drunk." -Harry Bulger, deputy Sheriff, one of the arresting officers, averred, that two hours after the accident, when he met the chauffeurs, he noticed evidences of intoxication. This was the verdict of the coroner's jury: "In. the minds of this Jury, the eald Dolly Ferrera-Martlni came to Jier death through the careless driving of one John Robertson and' we respectfully recom mend that a further investigatibn of tn.ca" b made by the grand Jurv." Through the fact that the Multnomah; county grana jury returned true bills in the murder mystery case of Mrs. May Real late yesterday afternoon, no inves tigation of the joy riding case was made. When the investigating body meets at 2 o'clock this afternoon, wit nesses in the Ferrera case will probably be called. . Says, They Drank Coffee. Frei Merrill denies "that any member of the party of joy riders was given anything to drink at the Twerve Mile house except coffee after 1 o'clock on the night Mrs. Dolly Ferrera was killed.

Indicted for man slaughter by the careless killing of Mrs. May ileal on the Linnton road are now at liberty on bonds furnished the district attorney s office subseauen to their arrest on warrants issued from the district attorney's office. Owing to the fact that all the hear Ing in the municipal court could do would be to bind the prisoners over to the grand jury it was considered by the authorities that the indictments did away with the necessity for such hearing. District Attorney Cameron has not made up his mind when the two prisoners will bo arraigned, but will undoubtedly take some definite action to start the case to trial within a few - days.
