" Hvltrart Speaks on ewers.''
' One of the features of the evening
'Was an address by city Engineer Hurl
JburtJntna sewers otPortlaniL,He said
the original city Is admirably located
for drainage, but that some of the area
l "jjcluded by eipanwlon of Portland of
fers problems. He particularly men
tloned the Tualatin valley which Is be
ing rapidly built up. Concerning the
ease side ne said:
"It is only on the east side of the
Willamette that we find territory within
and also adjacent to the present city
uounaary tnat presents difficult prob-
1m-tB-dfsJnage. -The great width of
tne area on the east side, reaching to
East Ninety-second street at the ex
treme eastern side, means much longer
-lines of sewefs to reach the river than
..ftn, the west- side, - Besides this there
are portions of the east side that cannot
' directly drained into the Willamette
-Among these Is a large area east of
Woodstock, Including all of the Mount
Hcott district, ahd southeast -ef-Mount
laoor (reaching to a line runnlnir dl
, recti y east from the summit of Mount
Tabor) that drains Into Johnson creek,
- for which a sewer running along
-Johnson, creek to its jdlscharge Jnto Hie
TW1ttametteaf lUlwaukle will bo needed."
Problems Bard to Meet.
i The city engineer said the Country
club district has no outlet at all. The
: north side of the Peninsula drains di
rectly Into the Columbia. The district
of about BbOO acres could ha dmlnfwl
Into the "Willamette, but much more
easily Into the Columbia slourh. whirh
, he recommended should be deepened to
Increase Its current, thus making not
only n sewage receiver but a navigable
cnnnnei.
-yltfn Htrrrburt TfltBinrese
.forts at dr-'TiaRe In Portland and con
irasted the ancient system with the
present. Classifying some of the large
ewers he sp.id that the Kast Stark
mreei mm drams an area of 2300 acres
ftom the Willamette to Kast Twenty,
first street' Trunk sewer o s
1- Kast Stark drains between East Twenty.
jirai una oriy-secona streets. Sulli
van gulch sewer under construction by
two contracts is to drain an area of
1800 acres. The east Thirty-third Btreet
extension of the Sullivan gulch sewer
drains an area of 600 acres. Insley
avpnue trunk sewer drains 1800 acres.
After discussing proposed- sewer con
alruction, Mr. Hurlburt spoke warmly in
favor of the plan to built a great In
tercepting sewer on the best bank of
the Willamette river Into which all west
fide sewern will drain rather than di
rectly into me river us at present. He
declared that the present system causes
the water to h befouled. Portland has
pent 13.46.000 for sewers already and
le spending approximately 81,000,0001
mis year.

I
(Sperlal to Th Journal.)
Olympla. Wash.. Oct. 11. The su
preme court yesterday granted a writ
restraining .the state canvassing board
from declaring Judge W. W. Black the
Democratic nominee for governor. This
probably means that Ernest Lister ot
T a co ma will head the Democratic state
ticket.
Tho majority decision was written by
Judge Pose and was signed by Judges
Mount (chief justice), Parker and Ellis.
Judges Chadwick and Morris concur in
the conclusions of the majority In a
separate opinion, while Judges Crow
and Fullerton dissent. The writ was
asked by Charles A. Reynolds, a Seat
tle Democrat
The decision means, according to
some, that the state Democratic centra!
committee wtlt name the man to run in
place of Judge Black and that Mr. Lis
ter, second high man on the ticket, "Will
be chosen. Lister's name will not be
certified to as the nominee, said Secretary-
of-State -I. r-M. HowelMastmlgtit,
and the place will be left vacant until
legal advice is had.
The court points out that it is con
ceded by all that the Judge cannot qual
ify himself to hold an office other thai.
Judicial during his elective term, by a
resignation or by any other act on his
part. The court says that the para
mount desire of the framers of tho
constitution was "to keep the judges
out of politics. Both the letter and the
spirit of the constitution are In har
mony with this view."

Greek colony, two American aeroplane
owners have offered their services to
the Greeks in the Balkan war and are
to leave at once with their equipment
to join the 10 Greek aeroplane operators

the Greek consul at Chicago was ad
dressing hlg countrymen on the occas
ion of the departure of 1000 trained
Greeks for New York on their way to
Greece.
The local society has also learned that

for them, oiul,tlioie V.I10 are unable to
pay their fiire to New York are being
supplied With funds appropriated by.the
Pan Hellenic society, which has set
aside $26,000 for that purpose.
" Many telegrams, letters and long dis
lance messages are being received dally
by Pulo asking if men are needed and
If there is a body of them to leave
Portland. . Already more than 1000 have
signified their willingness to leave on
short notice and If the call should come,
they could leave in a few hours,
Nick Btainoulls. a local loader, has
filed the names of his countrymen who
are ready to go to war, and has their

as Is observed In Germany, snd all are
at the command of their ruler.
