While Henry E. McGinn Scouts
Power of Executive Board
Law Show to Make Strange
- v Bed-Fellows.
George W. Bates & Company's
We'St Side Branch Opens In
Henry Building Monday.
fcx-Senator Charles W. Fulton ns a
' Jshatnplon of the Initiative -and referen
' 'dum, with Henry E. McGinn declaring
that In the passage of an Initiative law
; the city la trying to endow the execu
tive board wltli sovereign power" be
longing only to the state, la the mtm
ishlng situation presented by the Ilroud
way bridge case. ,to be argued In tho
lrult rourt tomorrow, and probably
' ' Tuesday a well.
.That law u well an politics makes
strange bedfellows Is shown b' tlio pt
' cullar lineup of the attorneys. Fulton,
who. has Win retained with Martin U
Pipes by the city to assist City Attof
ncy Kavanaugh and Deputy City Attor-
; ney BenboW, baa attached hla namo to
" . .... . . , . . i .
demurrer tnat araenny aeienun iu
Initiative and referendum, says It haa
, bten' sustained by tho eourta, and that
tbu courts should not tolerate an attack
on this system of popular rule. .
Equally contradictory of what would
be expected Is the attitude of McGinn.
Ha. wltn Raphael Citron, la attorney for
Maria I Flanders, whom property ins
' oltv is seekin to condemn for th
. Broadway bridge. He and Citron have
filed a demurrer In which they attack
the Broadway bridge Initiative as an at
Wmrt to confer powera on the city exec
utive board that only the state legis
lature pofcsessea.
i , ,. , Salts Are Different.
Tfc suits In which Fulton and Mc
Ginn appear are not the same, one be
ing an action to condemn property want
el by the rlty, us above stated, and the
, other being a suit in the name of Frank
Kiernan. against the city, to restrain
tne isaue of the Broadway bridge bonds!
It la in the latter suit that a rabid at
tack is mad, on the Initiative and refer
endum aa unconstitutional by Ralph R.
Duniway. and It la in this that Fulton
cornea to the . defense of rule by the
people. ,
Trte circuit Judges will alt en banc
tn.htar the arguments In the case, which
' are expected to consume all day tomor
; row and perhaps Tuesday. Presiding
Judgt) Bronaugh will designate two oth
er Judges to sit with him. Two jury
-ccscs are set for trial tomorrow.' and
two Judges will be needed to carry on
those trials. -"
Argument promises to cover a, wide
- range. It undoubtedly will, If It Is at-
- tempted to discuss all the points that
. Dunlwayj raise in his complaint. Be-
nldea . bis attack on the Initiative and
referendum, he alleges that the elty ex
hausted, power to order an election or
. the Broadway bridge by passing two
previous unrepealed ordinances, that tho
ordinance war too vague and defective,
that the1 offielul publication of,:nptice
was misleadins and. defective, that the
ballot title waa insufficient, that a re
quired majority of all tha votes cast
at the election were not east In favor
of the brldce, that an -attempt Is being
j made to fritter away the sovereignty of
the state, and numerous other things of
more technical nature. All of these
..things are controverted by, the city's de
murrer. In the caise of tire city against Mrs.
'Flanders, which will be heard at tho
same' time, McGinn and Citron contend
that the consent of the Port ofJ'ort-lanrt-
and the federal government are
conditions precedent to the issuitnce of
the bonds, ' that the bridge proponed to
be built la not the kind described by the
mtauunj submitted to the people, that a
legislative enactment Is being attempted
through a charter amendment, that It in
, void to require the county to pay for
maintaining the bridge after It Is built,
and that an effort is Being made to en
dvw tne executive board with legisla
tive power.
In a home of marble and mahogany
the new west side bank of Uorge W.
Bates aV Co., will open Its doors for busi
ness In the C. K. Henry building tomor
row morning Maynard Redmond will
preside at the cashier's desk; R. H. Wtn
nerbrrg and H. B. Iamson will be at
the paying teller's and bookkeeper's
windows, respectively.- Mr. Redmond
wus for many years cashier at Mr.
Bates' RiismpII street bank. Mr. Wlnncr
berg was bookkeeper for the United
Stntcs National bank, and Mr. Lsjnson
tvas-at one tlme.bookkeeper for the Ore
gon Trust A- Havings bank.
The two east side banks of Mr. Bates
will be maintained as at present, except
that tho west side bank will be the cen
ter of the big banking business which
Mr. Hates' energy has built up.
Big Interests on West Side.
Mr. Bates based bis decision to open
the west Side bank upon tho wonvlction
that, although East Portland Is destined
to prosper greatly, the center of
business and financial Interests will
continue always to be on the west side
of the Willamette river. He believes,
however, that a general banking busi
ness, with Its financial Institutions on
both sides of the river, will prove not
only convenient, but a profitable un
dertaking. The new bank fronts on Fourth street.
Just across from the Chamber of Com-'
merce building. Mr. Bates followed out
an original lea with nimseu wnen ne
had the banking room fitted up with
Italian marble, delicately veined. The
lobby has been made as wide as the slue
of the room would permit, and leads
Dast the cashier's, teller's and book-
keepersj rooms to a separate room where
women may nrne uui i , , , , i vnu.i "
list accounts. The directors' room In
ih mr haa been firilahed In solid ma
liogany. and the vault has been built
Into the wall.
May Bract Building.
"I announced at one time that we
would occupy quartern In the Henry
building only until I had completed a
new bank building on Fourth street
property between Stark and Washing
ton." said Mr. Bates yesteraay.
I think now If I can find a corner
location In the business center, that I
will by preference put up a new bank
building there. Meanwhile we will con
duct our banking business in the Henry
building, and' I think we will be pre
pared for successful operation."
BLACK

NOISY CONCATENATION
Warren O. Harding, former lieutenant
governor of Ohio, has announced his
willingness to sefc the Republican gub
ernatorial nomination this year.
' At a dinner given at the Commercial
club Friday evening by members of the
Order of Hoo-Hoo, plans were made for
the big concatenation, which ia to held
here on the evening of February 16.
G. A. Orlswold, vicegerent snark of
the northern Oregon district, presided at
the dinner. Most of those present had
some good words to say for Hoo-Hoo-dom.
Among other things, it was decid
ed to make this the biggest concatena
tion ever held In Portland, especially
because" of the aplendld opportunity for
a very large attendance. In view of the
fact that at that time there will be
present from 400 to 600 visiting lumber
men, in attendance upon the annual con
vention of the Western Retail Lumber
Dealers association. The large majority
of the delesates are members of the
black cat order. ,It Is figured that they
will appreciate nothing more during the
visit than a chance to aBstst in opening
the eyes of 60 or more trembling kit
tens. Vicegerent Grlswold says he has
already some 60 applications, and more
are coming, 80 there is no telling how
largt the class will be.
It was decided at the dinner to have
a committee of nine attend and arrange
for the concatenation. Vicegerent Snark
Grit wold will make the appointments in
a few days.

New, Home Planned for Bishop
on Portland Heights if
' '. Deal Closes,
Meier & Frank's new Annex Restaurant.
i
Following the custom of many of the
eastern hostelrk's and stores, Meier (&
Frank have placed their new restaurant
on the seventh floor of the annex, far
above the noise and bustle of the streets.
It (s the highest restaurant in the city.
and the only one which affords such
view of the city as well as of the sur
rounding country.
The windows, which are extra wide,
have been left free of sash curtains, so
that one seated at any of the many win
dow tables may enjoy an unobstructed
view of the Heights on the west and of
Mount St. Helens and Mount Adama on
the north, to say nothing of the traffic
In the streets below, which assumes
new and interesting proportions wnen
looked at from the ' height of seven
stories.
The firm has designed the restaurant the noon rush made one think of the
with sneclal attention to the needs of
the women shoppers. A charming "rest
room has been fitted up at the south end
and a special ladles' orchestra furnishes
delightful music from II until 6:J0
o'clock, except Saturday, when the hours
are extended until 8 o'clock. It would
be difficult to find a more Ideal place
to seek a bit of mental as well as phys
leal refreshment In the midst of busy
shopping day.
However, the women are not the only
ones who are attracted to the Meier &
Frank restaurant, for at the noqn hour
crowds of men -come regularly, and it Is
said to have become extremely popular
among the politicians about town as a
convenient and pleasant place to gather
together and lunch. ' "
A hurried tour of the kitchen during
tales of spotless town, or the old New
England kitchens which were marvels
of cleanliness. Perfect order reigned
throughout, and ft waa not in the least
damaging to appetites to have gone
through the kitchen before enjoying
luncheon In the restaurant.
It Is said that there will be a number
of changes In the restaurant in the near
future which will make a vast Improve
ment In it. . A handsome imported car
pet from Germany is in the house and
will be put down In the restaurant aa
soon as the rush of business will per
mlt. An 18 foot sideboard is to Dein
stalled, and the walls decorated with
appropriate pictures, while it ia said
that pinna are under way which will
featune a special 6 o'clock or matinee
tea.
RECEIVER ASKED

Pacific Export Lumber Co.
Asks Custodian for Rival
Corporation.
Alleging that the Campbell Lumber
compayy Is unable to meet Its obliga
tions, an application for appointment
of a receiver to take charge of It was
begun In the circuit court yesterday by
the Pacific Export Lumber company.
The Dlalntiff Is particularly anxious
about a claim of $58,000 that it holds
against the Campbell company.
The Pacific Export Lumber company
says that It held off on Its claim, the
original debt being $81,766, In order
to give the defendant a chance to set
tle, agreeing not to press Its claim
while tbe Campbell company tried to
clear Its path by an Ismie of $100,000 in
first mortgage bonds on all Its prop
erty. The property is enumerated In detail
In the complaint, bracing many tracts
of land In Oregon, also the ' Chinook
IFOIR
The Addition with Character
property at Deep river. Wash., the Steel
man property near Skamokawa, Wash.,
the Rosedale property near Cathlamet,
Wash., and stumpage contracts, logging
camps, railroads, cars, franchises and
other-property.
In the effort to help out the defend
ant. It is declared, the plaintiff secured
an offer from Giltner & Sewall for $25,
ooo for tht Skamokawa property. It
Is said that this is all the property
there is worth, but the defendant re
fused to accept the offer and thereby
failed to gather in that much cash.
It is alleged that the defendant is
rapidly stripping some of the property
it owns of timber and dissipating Its
assets. It Is declared that a receiver is
necessary to take charge and arrange
for payment of creditors, Williams,
Wood & Llnthlcum and James Gleason
represent the plaintiff. 1

This in Amendment on
Water Main Question.
Portland Is to have a modern nine
tory apartment , house of. the New
York type. If tht plans are carried ou
which were recently put In motion tiy
the ' trustees of the endowment, fund
of the Episcopal diocese ; of Oregon,' ,
A part of tho endowment of, the dio
cese. is the site of the Blshopcroft, at
Twentieth . and Everett . streets, which
haa a frontage of 130 feet on Everett
and 118 feet on Twentieth. The. trus
tee of the fund," William' MacMaster,
George C v Nicholson. Rev. ' George , B.
Van Waters, Rev. Mr. Bowen and
Bishop Charles 8. Scaddtng, voted at a
meeting held last week ' to lease the
site-for 60 years at a monthly rental
of $300 as a site for an apartment
house. '.' .. ' ' , . ,-, ' ....-,.
The trustees are negotiating with a
local capitalist and builder who la anx
ious to secure, the property on' lease,
and It la probable that the deal will
go through In a abort time.' r;
The Blshopcroft propertr was a gift
to the Episcopal endowment fund from
the Flanders estate, and cannot be sold.
It baa increased greatly in value durr
Ing the past few years and-Is now
valued at $60,000. The very, fact of
leasing thlf property on a valuation
of $60,000 will have the Effect of In
creasing the endowment fund by this
sum and will make ample provision
for paying the bishop's salary, thus
doing away with tha necessity .of as
easing the various parishes through
out tne state for that purpose.
In the event that this property Is
leased, which now seems probable, the
trustees of this diocesan fund will build
a new and more modern Blshopcroft on
property owned by the church at Nine
teenth and Elm streets, Portland
Heights. .

The legislative committee of ths

that Its' first plan for a water main
amendment should be that the consumer
pay only the actual expense of install
inK and maintaining water supply equip.
ment. Lot speculators are to pay -the
entire expense of putting In the mains
near their property. This burden shall
not be Imposed on the purchaser of sin
gle lots. This action is favored on the
ground that the lot speculator puts In
water mains' only for the our Dose of
adding value to his property, and for
mm to neglect payment for them Is an
evasion of financial responsibility,
Aiemoera or tne committee announced
yesterday that their first official action
will be to secure the advice of several
well known lawyers to advise them rn
the construction of. an. amendment
which. If adopted at next 'November'
general election, will insure the. people

the crest est possible justice to all con

sult members of the water board upon

Finally, they will draft and report an
