That statements made by Dr. George
Parrlsh, a recall candidate for tha of
fice held by Robert O. Dieck, .attacks
ln tha department of public works
for extravagance and Inefficiency, are
In the main gross misrepresentations
or the results of unreliable informa
tion, as -can be clearly shown, is the
charge made by Commissioner Dieck In
a. st augment prepared yesterday.
According to Commissioner Dieck,
Dr. Parrlsh claims that the number of
employes ot the department has been
I greatly, increased. Mr. Dieck says that
thl i untrue, tut in Jun If II thrii
Were employed under the city en
gineer 380. while In June, 1814, there
were employed by the department of
pub-lie, works (exclusive of the bureau
of buildings and the plumbing In
spector's office) a totai of 246. Fur
thermore, the department has followed
the deduction In public improvements
y a reduction of 40 field men, says
Commissioner Dteyk.
That the number of high-salaried
employes was formerly less than half
now employed Is one of the statements
declared erroneous by Mr. Dieck. Here
Is what he says:
Deductions ghoold Be Mads.
"Dr. Parrlsh' own tabulations show
that the payroll for June, 1913, ex
ceeded that for June, 1914,, by $785.37.
Furthermore, he forgets to state that
$2088.52 should be deducted from the
June. 1914, pay row for items which
did not exist or for work not done

"Weed cutting. $1101.84; Carroll cen
tral market. $57.02; elimination of
grade crossings, $395; commissioner's
salary (a fixed charge under the charter),-
$41(1.66; secretary's salary, $125;
total, $2095. This leaves an actual re
duction of $2880.89 in favor of this
department.
Commissioner Dieck also refutes
the statements accredited to Dr.
Parrlsh that here were formerly four
office engineers getting $7800 a year,
where there are nine now getting
$23,720 a year. Mr. Dieck states that
there were formerly nine men getting
$16,800 a year, while now there are
nine men getting $20,820 a year.
Work Much Heavier Vow.
Reference has ben made to the
record office. Commissioner Dieck
declares that there were formerly
three employed, but there are now
four, one man being transferred from
another office In the department He
says that the great mass of resolu
tions, ordinances, etc, governing pub
lic work, was formerly prepared by
the city auditor, but are now prepared
In this department without additional
help. Actual records, he states, show
that the correspondence now handled
is at least three times that handled
by the office of the former city engl-
He says that there is only one I
Increase in the main office of the
department, and the main office now
handles an accounting system which
was never done before. The system
is such now, says Mr. Dieck, that
any taxpayer can learn the exact fin- !
anclal condition of the department
and the way the money is being spent.
Bay Statement Is TaUehood.
That the statement accredited to Dr. J
Farrlsh that the drafting force has

tered into the conduct of the office,
aye Mr. Dieck.
Another statement made by Commis
sioner Dieck Is that the charges made
by Mr. Parrlsh that the traffic and
other questionable surveys are not
necessary and not consistent with a
policy to keep down taxes, are ab
surd. , . The traffic survey is. not an experi
ment, contends Mr. Dieck, for It has
keen extensively used for 'many years
In Americas oltles and by the French
government, which constructed the
finest streets and roads in the world
upon Information secured from like

Sxpeadltures Steadily Decrease.
Figures have been DreDared hv him
te show that the average monthly ex-
.ieumiures nave sieaaiiy decreased In
gpite of a noticeable Improvement In
character, and amount of maintenance
on streets, bridges and sewers. Mr
" Dieck says that Dr. Parrlsh has failed
to mention that the department will
- return to the general fund practically
dv.uvu in savings alter completing all
work and correcting much defective
cpimrucuon wnicn it inherited.
He also states that Dr. Parrlsh has
omitted to state that the city engineer
; for 1912 should be charged for an ex
penditure of $79,992.83 from the spe
cial bridge fund, whereas during his
administration only $3,523.64 has been
.- taken from this fund In designs for
.; the elimination "Of grade crossines.
Other charges alleged to have been
made by Dr. Parrlsh are answered la
, detail by Commissioner Dieck.
. Cost of Faring- Xa. .
He further declares that Dr. Par
rlsh made no mention ox the fact that
the cost of pavements has dropped
from ths average of $1,788 for first
class pavements to an average of
- si. 54 a square yard, and for snonnd
: class pavements from $1,416 a square
' yard to $1,889 a square yard. Mr. Dieck
contends- that If the $879,020.50 in
hard surface pavements constructed
during 1914 had been constructed un
der former prices the work would have
. cost the property owners $941,462.30.
kence the department is entitled to
gome credit for a saving of $62,441.73.
In concluding Commissioner Dieck
- gays that Dr. Parrlsh personally ap
peared at his office to compliment the
department for Its efficiency. He also
states that his office rooms" have been
conducted strictly for the transaction
of public business and not with an
pen door for handshaking or polities.

IS CAPTURED BY
SWEDISH CONTRALTO
Mme, Julia Claussen Wins
Hearts of Audience as-Soloist,
With Appollo Club,
, By J. L. W.
When Mme. Julia Claussen. the
Swedish contralto sang America in
In "Aida" here with the Chicago Grand
Opera company a little more than six
months ago she- won admiration, ap
plause and repeated curtain calls for
her charming voice and splendid act
ing, but last night as soloist with
the Apollo club, she completely cap
tivated musical Portland. She not only
charmed with her voice; she won the
hearts of her audience.
Mme. Claussen as a concert artist
was practically unknown to Portland,
and in grand opera she had been heard
here but once, but the Heilig was taxed
to capacity last night with a critical
audience, filled with expectation and
anticipation, because of the Impression
made by this rising star on her former
visit. It was but for her to sing the
first strains of the
ever, to dispell any fear of disap- I
pointment, and as the concert pro
gressed, so her voice grew In color
and volume till the last, when It rose
to a glorious climax in Schubert's
"Omnipotence," that held the audience
spell bound.
Bespond to Encores.
It was a triumphal finale, and the
listeners refused to leave their seats
until the contralto. Director W. H.
Boyer and Edgar E. Coursen, Port
land's dean of accompanists, had re
sponded to recalls half a dozen times
or more.
Last night's concert was the club's
most ambitious undertaking and by
far Its greatest success and It fixed
a standard difficult perhaps to surpass.
The program was chosen with great
discrimination, opening with the fa
vorite "Pilgrims Chorus" from Wag
ner's "Tannhauser," by the chorus
with Mr. Coursen and William C Mc
Culloch at the pianos. The shading
was exquisite and put the audience
into splendid mood for what was to
follow. These were two dainty num
bers. "The Night Has a Thousand
Eyes" by Gaines, and "Reveries" by
Storch, both sung a capella and softly
but with tremendous power in reserve
like a river that winds quietly but
inevitably through its well defined
channel.
Than "Elizabeth's Prayer" from
Tannhauser," Mme. Claussen could
hardly have chosen anything more
suitable for her opening number. It
proved adapted for her big, luscious
and so remarkably even voice. SeU
d&m one hears a eontralto, or mezzo
soprano with the absolutely even tone
quality throughout the register as that
of Mme. Claussen.
Other Hmabari Sung.
Other numbers in which she was
heard was Wagner's "Dreams," Saint
Saens' "Mon Coeur" from "Samson
and Dellla," SJokren's "Molnet" (The
Cloud), Peterson Berger's "Serenade,"
Greig's "Efteraarstormen" (Autumn
storm) and "Drifting." MacDermld's
"Sacrament" and "Little Playmates"
by Tuckfield. All of these were sung
in the original and with splendid dic
tion, in response to the insistent ap
plause after each number, the cantra
trice graciously gave "Annie Laurie,"
"Long, Long Ago" and "To a May
Day," the latter named a Norwegian
song written by the Swedish com
poser. Sjogren.
The big chorus made a particular hit
with the little Jocular song, "The Elf
Man" by Gibson, which it had to re
peat. This and the preceding "Sum
mer Lullaby" by Gibson, were also
sung a capella and with most artistic
phrasing. The most difficult number
tendered by the- chorus was perhaps
"Sunrise" by Podbertsky. It was
given with a splendid dramatic effect.
The club now numbers about 70 ac
tive members and tha associate list
has been increased with a great many
names since last season. W. A. Mont
gomery is now president, with J B.
Pilkington as vice president and Sid
ney G. Lathrop as secretary.
Suffragettes Are
for World Peace
Columbus, Ohio, Oct 24. Nearly
1000 suffragettes marched iU a driz
sllng rain in a torchlight parade here
tonight, esoortlng Mrs. Carrie Chap
man Catt. president of the Interna
tional Woman'e Suffrage alliance, to
Memorial hall, where she spoke to
S0O0 people.
Mrs. Harlret Taylor Upton, state
president, predicted the suffrage
amendment would carry November 3
by a big majority.
Mrs. Catt ' advocated world wide
peace which could be insured by the
establishment of an International par
liament to make laws and an Inter
national court to Interpret these laws
with women as well as men taking
part In making the laws and enforcin"
them.
Raid Is Fruitiest.
Acting upon information th th.
law relative to the sale of liquor was
being violated, Governor West d-
tailed a squad of four militiamen

Mllwaukie, late last night. Upon their
arrival the place was found practi
cally tenantless. No arrests were
made.

IN RECALL ELECTION
Citizens Advised to Study the
Ballot in Order to Vote In
telligently, THREE QUESTIONS ASKED
Opinion as to Bees 11, Officials and
Water Sate Ovdlaanoe
Sought.
The recall election will be held Tues
day. It Is the duty of every registered
voter to vote.
Unless voters do their duty the
recall may be successful.
Study the ballot elsewhere repro
duced in The Journal and prepare to
vote intelligently. The list of polling
places is also printed. Find where
you are to vote, and vote early.
Beoome familiar with first and sec
ond choice voting provisions of the
ballot.
On the ballot you nswer three ques
tions: Do you or do you not desire
the recall of Mayor Albee and Com
mlssioners Dieck and Brewster?. Do
you or do you not want to elect suc
cessors to them? Do you or do you
not favor Commissioner Daly ordi
nance for quarterly collection of water
rates?
Above all, VOTE,
People who oppose the recall have
been heard to say, "We will have noth
ing to da with lc" ,
By which they, mean they will not
vote, thinking thereby to defeat the
recall.
Totes Will Count. r
Thelr's Is the surest way to make
the recall election a victory for the
recallers.
The recallers will not need to be
urged to get out and vote. They have
their o.wn motives to urge them.
If others stay away from the polls
their worda may condemn the recall
but their acts will support it.
The votes cast at the polls will de
termine the outcome of the recall elec
tion.
Votes alone count.
If the people of Portland do thelf
duty they will poll the largest vote
ever cast at a city election. If such
a vote is cast the recall will be de-
feated
Public sentiment is against it.
A decisive rebuke will thus be admin
istered to Kennedy. Leet, and Abrey.
who are chiefly responsible for
forcing upon the people at
this time a $25,000 special election
cost, not because the officials they
seek to recall are guilty of corruption,
malfeasance or gross Incompetency, but
because Kennedy, Abrey and Leet want
the offices these officials hold.
The rebuke is necessary to discour
age others from ever again lightly in
voking the recall In Portland.
Superintendent Alderman of the pub
lic schools lias asked all teachers to
talk to the children tomorrow about
the Importance of citizens doing their
duty in voting. The children will
write essays giving reasons for voting-
and these they will carry home
for their parents to read.
It Is intended that the children shall
receive not alone lessens la language
and penmanship, but lessons in citi
zenship and that these lessons shall
be carried to their parents. If tha
schools can do so much, cannot every
good citizen both vote and urge others
to do so?
Everything la In readiness for the
recall election to be held Tuesday.
The official ballots are ready and the
ballot boxes will be ready for distri
bution to the various polling places
the first thing Tuesday morning.
Every employe that could be spared
from City Auditor Barbus office has
been working strenuously preparing
for the election ever since the recall
petitions were filed and now every
thing indicates that the election will
be held without a hitch.
The police bureau will lend all as
sistance possible to assist the judges
and clerks and the city auditor's men.
The members of the three reliefs of
the bureau will report on duty at 6:30
o'clock Tuesday morning and distribute
the ballot boxes and tally sheets. The
saloons are to be closed from 8 o'eloek
in the morning until 8 o'clock at night.
Twenty men will be held In reserve
at headquarters.
Under the preferential system of
voting as shown on the ballot print
ed elsewhere In The Journal today,
If a ballot contain more than one
vote for the same candidate, enly
the one vote highest is to be counted.
If the majority of the votes cast
are to recall Mayor H. K. Albee or
either one of tha two commissioners
the candidates receiving the majority
of the first choice votes for the three
offices shall be elected. If the can
dictates, however, do not receive a
majority of the first choice votes
then the second choice votes shall
be added and the candidates receiving
a majority of the first and second
choice votes shall be elected. A tie
between two candidates ahaJl be de
cided in favor of the one having the
largest number of first choice votes.
If the majority of the votes cast
on the recall questions in the cases
of Mayor H. R. Albee and Commie
sioners Robert G. Dieck and W. L.
Brewster are for the recall in any in
stances, the vote on the candidates
amounts to nothing. Should one of
the ' men be recalled, however, the
candidate receiving the highest num
ber of votes is to be elected.

Henry was asked later to elaborate

Clark praise Congress Work.
With the record breaking session of
congress practically at an end. the fol.
lowing expression concerning It
.'achievement were made especially for
the United Press, today by represent
atives of the three parties:
By Speaker Champ Clark: "The
Baltimore platform contains a multi
tude of promises. We have redeemed
several of them, are in process of re
deeming others and purpose to re
deem them alL Jn my Judgment a
majority of the American people In
dorse the achievements of the Demo
cratic administration, for have
kept the faith. We stand confidently
on our record on this contest."
By Majority Leader Underwood:
"The Democratic party la entitled to
the confidence of the people because
it has kept Its pledges to them. It
has revised the tariff downward to
a revenue basis, has shifted the burden
of taxation from those least able to
pay to those most able to bear the
burden, haa reformed the banking and
currency -laws, has furnished the nec
essary supplemental legislation to
make effective the provisions of the
Sherman law to prohibit monopoly
with the least possible disturbance to
business, and It has further Remon
strated that it can efficiently admin
ister tha affairs of tha national gov
ernment" SKaaa Critlelsea Democrats.
By Republican Leader Mann: "There
is lack of confidence throughout the
country, and why should not it de
vedop? There has been no legisla
tion since Mr. Wilson became presi
dent whih tended to restore confi
dence. Whenever the Democratic par
ty is In power and has an opportunity
to legislate or attack the business of
the country through the administra
tion there necessarily comes lack of
confidence."
By Representative Rupley, Progres
sive, of Pennsylvania: "The great con
structive measures that were passed
by this congress' were passed with the
assistance of the Progressives and so
called Progressive Republicans. In
the future we will demonstrate that
the Progressive party should have
been entrusted with the passage of
these great constructive pieces of leg
islation. One big blot oh the achieve
ments of the Democratic administra
tion is the failure to pass the immigra
tion bills."
By Senator Polndexter, Progressive:
'This congress Is entitled to undisputed
credit for several far-reaching and ex
cellent measures. Among the best is
the bank reserve act. The anti-trust
bill was shamefully weakened by omit
ting all criminal penalties against the
individual violators. The war tax bill
is a misomer and unpardonable."

the close of registration In the
counties.
The increase In the registration this
year over that of 1912, when 159,888
were on the lists and when 144.11$
ballots were cast, is due to the grant
ing of the franchise to the women of
the state, as well as to the inter
est taken in the election Issues this
year by practically every voter. In
1910 there was considerable interest in
the election in Oregon, but the vote
was only 120,248.
There is a possibility that the reg
istration this year may be 305,000 and
it is estimated that the percentage of
those who fall to cast their ballots
will be small.

of the raids. Think of that $36,000 a

people who could afford it. It was
not from the banks and from men who
had it to siend. It was money taken
from the poor working man and his
family. Money that was taken from
men who earn but a few dollars a day
and who could ill afford to lose it.
"It was not my fault that Russell
