Action of Public Dock Com
1 mission in Asking Viaivers
in Bulkhead Question Scored
' at Meeting.
,,, i '. .,:
Lively discussion of the text of the
resolutions ent by the commissioner
of public docks to Governor West and
n-Attorney General Crawford, In connec
tion with the... filling behind bulkheads
at the Eastern & Western mills, by the
Port of Portland, was Indulged In by
the Port of Portland commission at their
.meeting yesterday afternoon. ; During
the discussion it was freely stated that
the demand for a waiver was no more
nor .less than' a blackmailing scheme.- A
letter tn connection with the matter was
laid on the table Indefinitely -until the
commission, of public docks can show
authority . to tell the Port of Portland
commission -where and how"- to make
their filler or until the latter body re
ceives a' further opinion from its at
torneys. V CftU It Blackmail.
In an opinion by Wood, Montague &
Hunt, counsel for the commission, in
' connection with the making of the fill
at the Eastern & Western Lumber com
pany's mill regardless of a waiver, the
lawyers said in part.: . . , '
u In tM . case -the action - of - thePort
of Portland commission seems reason
ably necessary In carrying out its pri
mary and essential duty of dredging this
harbor, and we have no doubt as to its
right to make the fill tn question." '
l "It the' upland owner does not own
Ifle filled land, then it certainly be
longs to the state," said President 8.
M. Mears, "and the Port of Portland
commission representing thai people of
the state, it should be their province to
make fills as they see fit. In doing
harbor work, there-is no other place to
dump material taken from the river.
Tlie - dock commission is, blackmailing
the owners into .giving a waiver."' . -
. Offr to Furnish Coal.
General Manager Marcus Talbot re
ported that be had been advised by the
Pacific Coast Coal company to the ef
fect that they could furnish coal for
steamships mined by themselves in
Washington at $5 per ton and that Brit
ish Columbia coal could be furnished by
them at 45.50 a long ton. A dismantled
steel hull of a steamer for barging pur
poses could be secured at San Francis-
. co for from' $12,000 to .114,000, with an
additional $7000 for repairs. A wooden
hull capable of transporting 2000 tons
could be leased for from $300 to $400 a
, month. -,
' It was the opinion of the commission
that large steamship lines which found
sufficient business here would come re
gardless of the fact that they had to
pay more for Coal here than on the
Sound or' in British Columbia, but the
American Trading company, in a com
munication, stated that they would load
their vessels at northern ports if the
price of coal was not the same here as
elsewhere. The matter of furnishing
coal for steamers 'nere was laid on the
table until the next meeting.
Purchase of Boat Approved.
At the request of General Manager
Talbot the commission approved the ex
penditure of $1850 for the launch Asto
ria to be used as a tender for the dredge
Columbia. As the dredge Portland has
no tender, the lease of the steamer
Pronto for that purpose at $350 a month,
was approved.
It was ordered that advertisements be
made for bids for furnishing 16,500 feet
iron bark and eastern oak, one of which
wllljie used for making new keel blocks
for tiie Port of Portland drydock.
Pointing out that it is impossible to
buy navigation charts here and- that
masters of vessels have to send to San

turned over to General Manager Talbot
with Instructions to look into it.

No Changes Made in Civil
; Service Provisions Except
to' Add to Right of Direct
Appeal and Trial. :
The civil service provisions of the
commission plan charter ahould be par
ticularly attractive to the members of
the police department. No.changes In
the present code are made except to add
the right of direct appeal to and trial by
the civil service board. Section 20 of the
commission charter requires a dally effi
ciency record of every municipal em
ploye and every policeman, and in case
of trial thie record would be used as
evidence. If the officer's .record was
good- it would be hard for personal
feeling or.'"frame-up" to makp a case
against him. He would be safer in bis
position than is now possible, as long
as his acts were right.
This information was given the mem
bers of ,the police department by rep
resentatives of the official commission
plan charter-Committee yesterday even
ing In the police association rooms.
The questions asked by the officer
in later discussion were the most sig
nificant feature of the meeting. The
inquiries showed the department mem
bers are studying the new charter and
that they are open minded. At the eame
time it was evident that many misstate-
hnents have been circulated, among the
policemen and .other public employes
about civil aervlce under .the new plan.
Provisions Are Exvlaintd.
Questions asked of W. C. Benbow and
George L. Baker, members of the char
ter revision committee, showed that pa
trolmen came to the meeting believihg
that civil service was to be wiped out
or weakeni'd. Few left with that belief
after it had been clearly proved that
the amended charter will be Identically
the same as the present charter so far
as civil service is concerned except in
four points:
Line sfx of section SI 7 Is new and
does away with a meaningless trial be
fore the commission preliminary to re
moval or discharge. 'That such re
moval or discharge may be made with
out any trial or hearing means a bless
ing, and not an injury, to civil service
employes," said Mr, Baker. The. rest
of the section makes it necessary for
the civil service commission to give
a trial and to reinstate if the employe
shows that his removal was not war
ranted by the facts. The burden of
proof stays where it is now, upon the
employe. It was asserted that the pres
ent perfunctory trial before . removal
only hurts tho employe without restrain,
ing the removing officer. The new lino
protects the employe in that, he goes
to trial before the board without the
disadvantage of a preliminary, possibly
unfair, hearing, while at the same time
prompt action for the sake of disci
pline is permitted.
Would Benefit Employes.
, Line 22 of section S17 says that when
removed or discharged- employes are re
instated after trial before the civil ser
vice commission, it shall be "upon such
conditions or terms as may . be imposed
by the commission." V. L. Brewster,
who served six years as civil service
commissioner, explained that this cw
power would benefit employes, and Im
proves public service. He emphasized
the fact that -oftentimes men ought to
be punished but not so seriously as by
removal. For example, a patrolman who
had been removed for drunkenness
ought not to be reinstated without some
penalty to keep him straight afterwards.
On the other hand, discharge for the
first offense might be unnecessarily
severe. The new line enables tho. com
mission to make a conditional reinstate
ment "pending good behavior" or "pay
ment, of fine."
The third' new provision in the char
ter makes eight hours the logat work
ing day for laborers, mechanics and
workmen employed by the city, $2 the
minimum wage and preference for em
ployment goes to citizens of 'the United
States who have resided in the city on
year.
Chief Slover aged with William IL
Allen, the municipal efficiency expert,
who is directing research work here,
when he said the required service rec
ords of work done by civil service em
ployes would give employes a sadly
needed protection against arbitrary ac
tion. Chief Slover recalled that he hlm
had recommended such records as the
new administrative code (section 20)
would compel. He said trials could
pever be fair under the present charter
and rules, because only hearsay' and
opinion are available. All civil service em
ployes, ha said, ought to have records
of their work which no one can distort,
and no one forget.. They can then prove
whether or not their removal was for
the good of the service or for spite.

them when I said that their statements

seemingly bused on lack of informa

'"The mayor would have no autocratic

a vote favorable to it. Bead from sec
tion 114: " - - '
'No money shall be expended nor
payment made from any fund of the
city; except assessment funds, until a
specific appropriation shall , be made
therefor: and an ordinance making an
appropriation of money shall not con
tain a provision on any other subject"
"Again, this same section reads'
'The Council may, by ordinance, 11ml'
the expenditures of every department o?
thf city government, . except Interest
charges,' This means that, if the. may
or attempted autocratic use of power,
the chief means of that power could be
denied him Again, the section reads:
.'"Tha city shall Issue no warrants or
other evidence of Indebtedness, except
upon special assessment funds.', .
'Evidence can be multiplied for the
convincing of . any person open to con
viction that the mayor's powers under
the proposed charter will not be as great
as now, if he does, not do right."
SUIT RESULTS FROM '

.The trial of the suit of W. W. Lucius,

company claims that $100 is a reason
able foe,
Lucius alleges that he was compelled
to examine the building and make a re
port in eight hours, that the wok 'was
very hazardous on account of the fall
ing in of part of the building, and that
he had to guarantee his report within 3
per cent. He claims that on his report
