Word has been received In Portland
that Judge J. E. Whit ten of the law
board of the general land office and
Special Agent Hinrlchs of the land of
fice will come to Portland In the near
future to take testimony In the can
cellation suit of the government against
the Alaska Petroleum & Coal company.
Horace TUlard Jones, formerly ape-
clal agent of the general land office
and Louis R. Glavis, former chief of the
field division of the general land office.
both made Investigations Into the char
acter of the location made by the com
pany In the Jnneau coal flolds, and rec-
pmmended agalmit the company s clatma.
They aecured affidavits from ropreaen
tatlvea of the company at the time they
made their investigations, and it la to
fortify theae affidavits that testimony
In the caae will be taken in Portland.
The Alaaka Petroleum & Coal com
pany is largely a Seattle corporation.
Thomaa S. Lippy, a millionaire and ei
Methodlst minister being president, and
Clark Davis another Seattle capitalist,
being one of several Seattle directors,
It Is claimed by the government that
stockholders In the corporation filed on
coal and oil lands near Juneau for the
company.
The fact that Judge Whltten, one of
the beat known men In the general land
office Is coming to Portland to take this
testimony indicates that the government
Intends pushing Its case in an attempt
to block the Alaska Petroleum claims
from going to patent, though there had
been some rumors the fight on the com
pany would be dropped.
FOUR CHILDREN CONTEST
LEGACY TO BROTHER
(Special ntipittb to The Jonrnil I
Hlllsboro, Or.. June 7. A petition to
set aside tne will of the late John M.
Simpson has been riled In the county
court by attorneys for Hettle A. John
son, Emma M. Bowlby, John M. Simp
son Jr. and Bessie Simpson Purvis, sons
and daughters. Simpson was a Wain-
Ington county pioneer. He died May
20. 1910, leaving an estate of more
than $25,000. His will gave a life es
tate to the widow, the entire property
with the exception of legacies of 5
each to the contesting heirs to go at her
death to Franklin H. 8inipson, a son.
The petition to set aside alleges undue
influence by the latter and Incompe
tence ox the testator.
Stillman-Whltnry Wedding.
San Francisco, June 7. One of the
largest and most fashionable weddings
or the season took place In Trinity
church today, when Miss Mildred Whit
ney, daughter of the late Calvin E.
Whitney of this city, became the bride
of Ernest G. Stlllman, son of James
Stlllman, the eminent New York banker.
A large party of guests from New York
attended the ceremony.
Mr. Grant, who returned to Portland
Saturday night after a tour of north
western cities, where he Investigated
the commission plan In effect at Spok
ane and Tacoma, Is even more confirmed
In the -views that he has always held
that .the commlslon rule Is the most
economical and efficient form of muni
cipal government.
I am convinced that tha trend of
public opinion," said the city attorney,
'la unmistakably towards simpler muni
cipal legislative. Judicial and execu
tive methods. I have heard that opinion
expressed on every hand. But In Hpok-.
ane, where the people have adopted
a moat modern commission plan, em
bracing all the beat features of the Gal
veston and Dea Moines systems with
many Innovations, every body with
whom I talked, whether It happened to
be the waiter at my restaurant, the
barber who shaved me, the street car
conductor on whose car I rode to the
ball game, the fan with whom I talked
at the ball grounds, the merchant, the
banker or the contractor whom I met
at the Commercial club or the public
official whom I met at the city hall
all advised me to warn Portland ers to
go slow.
favorable Comment.
"I didn't hear a single unfavorable
comment on the Spokane charter, but
the general belief In the inland empire
metropolis la that the people were
fortunate In their choice of the flrat
commission.
"One thing that we do not want In
a commission for Portland. In my opin
ion, is the preferential ballot. It la
too cumbersome. Outside of this fea
ture the Spokane charter lmpreaaed me
moat favorably.
'One of the beat provisions In the
Spokane charter is that which elim
inates politics In municipal electiona.
There are no primaries, but the com.
mission officials are chosen at one
election. There is no chance for any
throat cutting or mud slinging. If a
candidate can't get a first choice vote
he asks the electors to give him a
second or third choice vote. He does
not incur the enmity of the voter by
denouncing hla opponents, thue losing
his chance of their support The ef
ficacy of the system was shown in
the election held at Spokane this year.
Only one official was elected! on first
choice votes. All the rest trot Into
office by second and third choice votes.
As the result of my tour of Inspec
tion the first thing I would counsel Is
that the committee which Is to draft
a new charter for this city go about
their work without haste and that af
ter It has prepared a charter that this
be given the utmost publicity before
going to the, voters.
Tacoma Acted Hastily.
"An example of a charter that was
prepared too hastily and which was
dopted without sufficient considera
tion by voters Is that of Tacoma. As
a result that city has had four recall
elections already this year.
x am aurprised that Mayor Simon
neglected to Include a representative
of the city attorney's office on the
charter commission that he has ap
pointed. I do not say this because of
any personal reason, but if seems to
me that the advice of an attorney that
has had years of experience with the
legal phases of the present charter
would have been Invaluable on any com
mission Belected to correct the defecta
in the present charter.
The mayor's list of charter revis
ers does not include an engineer, either.
xnis also I consider to be a mistake.
One of the members of the com
mission appointed by Mayor Simon Is
the head of a corporation against which
he city is prosecuting a suit to re
cover streets that have been occupied
by the mill of that corporation for
years. I do not believe It was a wise
thing to appoint such a man a member
ui a committee cnoBen to prepare or
ganic laws for the government of tha
municipality."
