We , . want our statements hereafter in writin" that we may keep a jcopy, and there will be no ques- iion a to what Was said. "We will give correct, laf or- matlon to any one who wants it, ' but that Information has to be Stt in writing from this office." " - .; Hydraullo engineers and water bu reau experts the world over are agreed that meters are necessary on water services,- to maintain efficiency and provide equitable distribution, accord ing to lb - M. Randlett, assistant en gineer of" Portland's water bureau.'ln his argument for meters. . "Mat rates for the use O water are wrong, unjust and unbusinesslike and against the Interests of any taxpaying t ommunity," said Mr; Randlett this morning. "Under the present system many -are paying for a waste-of a few. vThere is no more equity and right un "der such a system than there would- be by selling gas by annual rate charges. It Is guess work pure and simple. The grocer might just as well furnish you with potatoes for so much a year based . on the number of knives and forks you own. It makes the honest consumer pay for' the waste and abuse of the careless and dishonest ones. Expert Gives View. "Here's what John Erlcson, city en gineer of Chicago, a recognized exj pert, has to say on the subject: - .. 4Tbe best and generally approved method to Stop abuse Is to install me ters, a method which has proved eco nomical and satisfactory in Europe and those American cities where it bas . been adopted. "When we consider the additional cost on acebunt of larger pipes required to carry the excessive quantities. of water, other operating ex penses and the interest on the cost of pipe lines, headwords, etc., that could be delayed, the saving per year would amount to thousands of dollars. : : "Conditions In Seattle are about the seme as they are here," says L. S. Kaiser, superintendent of the water bureau. "Long ago it was found that meters were necessary if the supply of water Would be conserved.' j More "than . 40,000 meters are installed ' there, and It ia expected that all services will be metered by the end' i'of this season. Seattle has- a gravity system, 'has a larger supply of water from the Cedar river than we have here, while the ca pacity of the pipes are about the same. Xilfe or Meter Discussed "Much has been said about the life ,.- of a meter. What is meant by its life? When it needs its first repairs, or when it finds its way to the junk pile, . or when the new parts purchased ( amount to the original price of the me ' ter. I should say. the latter. The case of a meter, will last for 50 years. "Twenty years at least would be re ! quired before , the cost for new parts and Tepairs would amount to the orig inal cost of, the meters. Recently we removed meters , that had been in serv ice for more than ll-.years. No repairs , had ever been made on them. They tested correctly. "In view of the above facts. I feel , safe in saying that the average life of , a. meter such as we use can be placed .tat 29 years.. The amount received for i old meters when sold cannot be over Hooked, as we have received liberal al j Xowanees ft the past." ;i Stating Rink Most Go. i: 'Am result of objections made by resi dents in the vicinity of Grand avenue and Alberta streets to a permit granted for a skating rink In that neighbor hood, the proprietors of the, rink are Yog Can Do Better Ini'j LION No Auctipn Sal6s May Bid Saloons " Of .

Prominently involved in the trouble is James Fitrpatrick, the Catholic priest who' was paroled , by , Circuit Judge Davis some time ago.

R. W. Montag-uei attorney for the Warren 'Bros, company, and A.x J. Hill. IvTorth western manager, appeared be fore the board of county commission ers today and protested against the withdrawal of the name Warranite from the specifications jseing, prepared for bardsurfacing the main roads of the county .under the J reeent bond issue. They claimed that their product had an established reputation and that con tractors should be fully advised as to what they were bidding1 on. Ur. Montague quoted the 'familiar verses from Shakespeare "lie - who steals my good name robs me of that which does not enrich him but makes me poor Indeed." "We will submit bids for paving," continued Mr. Montague, --"and if you, do not like them you need not do bus iness with us. But if you deal with Would Defend Patent. - He asserted that It was unworthy of any private or "public body to withdraw that on.- which a reputation was founded. If it was the county's in tention to contest the patent he asked that the company be so notified. They were ' prepared to defend it as their right had been already established by court decisions. ' He said that It was a legal proposi tion that if a patentee permitted his product to be used "'under' another naxs he in a eenbe waived his rights. "'To cut out the trade name," he said .would be the same thing as com pelling an individual to hire a lawyer' who should be designated as lawyer No. 33." i Mr. HiU argued that in specifying Warrenite contractors - were not ex cluded from bidding on it. - He cited instances where the company had pro tected the reputation of. its product by making repairs, although under no moral obligation to do' so. When informed by ""the commission ers that it was the intention to follow the specifications of the city of Port land and specify "a blthulitio redress," Mr. Montague and Mr. Hill said that would be satisfactory. In drafting paving specifications, the board of commissioners and Road master Yeon are carrying out the prom ise made during the bond campaign that the specifications shall be open, and that all desiring to bid may do so. Concrete Base Called Fox. The specifications for wood, brick and basalt blocks call for a concrete base five inches in thickness, with a : six inch curb. Asphaltic concrete pavements will be classed as follows: No. 1, which shall be equivalent to bitulithic redress and similar to the city specifications. No, 2 will be what is commonly known as "Topeka mixture." Both classes shall be laid either on the old macadam base or on a con crcto b&s6 Sheet asphalt shall be laid on a con crete base. ; ' Concrete pavements Will be specified in three classes. ' ' No. 1, is to be the equivalent of the patented pavement, of Hassam. The other two classes are to differ only in the amount of cement entering into the mixture. One, which! is the Wayne, Michigan, mixture, calls for a mixture of one part of cement to four and one half parts of sand and gravel. The other Is the Pierce county, Washington, mix ture, and calls for one part of cement to five and one half parts of sand and gravel. - ! ! - It is expected to have a final draft ef the specifications by Monday, - at ; which time advertising for bids may j begin.- - EVANS OPINION REJECTED Number of Attorneys Hold Tea Year Guarantee Can Be Exacted. A number of attorneys do not accept the opinion of District Attorney Evans that a 10 year guarantee cannot' be exacted by the county on paving con tracts. I It is held that the board of county commissioners can at the time it re ceives bids for construction consider also a contract to maintain the' con struction for a period of 10 yeais. In v an opinion given by Carey & Kerr, it is held that "If a bid for maintenance la received and a contract i is awarded, it will be for a can con sideration immediately paid out of the county funds and not out of the funds procured by the sale of the road bonds, "We think,' says the opinion, "the board of county commissioners nas full power; to enter into such a contrast and to accept security, for its perform ance, i Such contract would be binding on the bidder and upon bis suretiee. To be binding the consideration paid by the county need not be more than a nominal sum." r r ' v ; Opinions on similar lines have also been given by E. E. Coo vert and Rich ard W. Montague, who bold that such a contractus enforcible.

J pal sections of the city that they might respond quickly to riot calls, mobs made their way through the streets, attacking German shops and stores and' causing German and Aus? trian residents to flee for safety. The windows of the chamber of deputies were smashed in an organized demonstration In favor of war. '" Led by interventionists a huge crowd then paraded to the palace to demand that King Victor Emmanuel immediate ly declare war upon Austria. Appearing before , the chamber of deputies the mob stoned the structure. Windows were smashed as the angry crowd howled Its denunciation of the peace advocates. The attack upon the chamber was an organized demonstra tion for war. Led by interventionists, the throng poured toward the quirinal to voice its demands for an immediate declaration of war to the king. Police and soldiers were powerless to control the crowds. ; King Victor Emmanuel called a con ference of the most prominent states men during the morning to consider the action- that should be taken .as re sult of the resignation of the Salan dra cabinet. Troops were than pa trolling the streets in an effort to prevent a fresh outbreak of the vio lent rioting. which swept the city early in the . day. - The guards about the Austrian and German embassies were doubled In fear that an attempt would be made to wreck them. Peace Paction Satisfied. In the meantime great satisfaction was expressed - by members of the peace party orer the. resignation of the Salandra cabinet. They hailed this action as an admission of defeat. Interventionists . declared the resig nation signified nothing more than the people were to . be given a chance to declare pubUcly. whether 'they want ' war, before parliament meet on. May 20. Premier Salandra, his friends say, was confident, that the people would repudiate former Premier Gioletti and the advocates of .continued neutrality. Not only in Rome,' but , in other Italian cities, - . violent rioting and clashes between " the intenventionista and neutral factions occurred. ! Several were wounded in Florence and a-group of students; -demonstrating in-favor of war, -were attacked by a crowd of peace advocates. In Milan, one person was killed and four wounded during a 'pitched battle in the streets between the rival fac tions. ' " V """ ' Troops Ttr on Mob. Troops were forced to fire several shots into a. mob which was rioting on the Piazza Colonna in Rome, and many were .wounded. A crowd which gath ered about the German college threat ened to burn the i structure. The king called both leaders of the peace party and interventionists to the palace today for the. conferences fol lowing the resignation of the. cabinet. It was accepted that should he defi nitely decide to. accept ' the resignation of Premier Salandra and bis ministers and appoint a peace cabinet, nothing but a revolution will drive Italy in t the war. Should the resignations be j rejected, it was believed certain Italy ' would be at war within two weeks. Near the Piazza Colonna the troops j were forced to fire several voUeys be- i fore the mobs were dispersed. Many I persons were wounded. The mob later I reformed, however, and the rioting continued, the military being unable to restrain the angry populace. At Milan, interventionists and those favoring neutrality clashed in a pitched battle. A number were killed and wounded. Threats to burn the German-college in Rome were made. Mobs assembled about the college, shouting and curs ing the Germans and . loudly proclaim ing their intention of applying the torch. They were dispersed by soldiers after windows in the college had been smashed by clubs and stones thrown by the angry people. ' The wildest scenes were enacted oa the Piazza Colonna. The mob at- k tacked every German shop in that vicinity. ' Fleeing beiore the Irenzied Italians, the German proprietors took refuge in the residential section of the city. 1 : REICHSTAG MEMBER v ATTACKED IN ROME, JUST ESCAPES DEATH Rome. May 14. (I N. S.)
