THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1915. MUZZLE ADVOCATED AS I REATMENT FOR RIPARIAN OWNERS Evidence of Aroused Public Conscience in Behalf of Portland Is Apparent, VALUABLE WORK IS DONE Writer Shows by Tig-ores What Agita tatlon Has Saved In Dollars and Cents to This Fort. SPLENDID BABIES AMONG WINNERS IN CONTEST AT LAND PRODUCTS SHOW By J. B. Zielor. There Is evidence of a l-aven at norlt arousing a port rons-ienre for the port of Portland. The plight of the port huslneK.i Is sufficient cause. There Is plenty of warning In the mls , takes of the past to prevent those of tho present br winpr, nnd it Is wise that the firnt point of attack should be the rail rate structure. My par ticular siiKl'fsion is, however, that a muzzle be rut upon riparian owners, and that thev be compelled to submit to reconstruction of the harbor on pub lie lines without the exaction of their pound of flesh. Jet such forbearance 1 e their contribution to the fortunes of the port. If the decision of the Oregon court In the dock case Is to be regarded as com lufilve, and the argument of the organ of the waterfront owners that adequate dock service can be secured through regulation without "conflsca t'on," is to bu the accepted policy, then iet an adequate public plan for a water terminal system be enforced upon the harbor shores, whether in public or private ownership, Just as has been done at Astoria and Joos Kay. They got. the wharf right for Omt purpose. No land should be bought to in crease the harbor area vhile the pri vately owned shores are being con erted Into uplands by fills. Credit Is Claimed. In my last two letters I have claimed credit for the initiation of a policy of reform in this matter, and the recovery of 1 1 f rivcs of foreshore Into the har Lor. While I have my 'hand to this Irk some plough, if The Journal will al low me. I will make a statement of the concrete benefits 1 claim have ac crued to this port as the result of my humble, almost anonymqus efforts If it brings the blush of modesty to pny cheek for me, I will plead that the thilm is not so egoistic as it may appear, at least that my egoism is halt and tardy and lame In compari fon to my. public interest, as It may be noted that the Oregonlan letter ap pearlng only lust week bears date of August 12. The reason Is that my personal defense was interrupted by the passing demands upon my public propaganda, and these were of para mount interest to me. Much Work Done. SJnce August 12 I have taken up the Coos Bay situation, i presented my plea for a public foreshore to the Kan IVanclsco conference. I have drafted and presented to the Interior depart ment a plan for disposal of the O. & C. lend grant, so as to save to settlers values which otherwise would be sac rificed to speculation, and have piessed the rights of the public ngainst the fills on the O-W. R. & N. beneyard. But here Is my statement: 1 909 Amendment to city charter enforcing upon public utility corpora tions reports to the auditor; success ful. 1 y 1 0 Led and carried to a success ful conclusion opposition to the vaca tion of 11 east side waterfront streets; ably assisted In this by East Side Business Men's club. Xitll Passage of the Ziegler amend ment forbidding all waterfront vaca tions. 113 Secured the adoption of the present common user clause in the city cr.arier; aiso tne passage or the com mon transportation terminal amend ment. lilo Secured the war office order restoring 11G acres of foreshore in the deep water terminal district Into the harbor. Concerning this latter I enjoyed the pleasure of reading In the public press various entertaining interviews and comments concerning' the value and beartnjs of the change, the most defi nite of which seemed to be that it might Interfere with the Windemuth baths. Yet no Inquiry came to me for a view of the matter, although it was the result of two years of work on my part. Seal Tain of Work. By far the greater part of the, value of this work lies In the replacement of the inadequate and wasteful policy of private terminals by prbllc termi nals, and establishing a protection for public properties and rights. Perhaps, though, the appeal of the hi it w i i S8m 4. I 1 i 5 nerchants' eye of concrete figures may be more effective. Then the state ment Is something like this: Public properties saved from imme diate loss: 1910--Sidewalk at Third and Glisan 1 The H street side at - pralsemcnt Keduction at price of .Swan Island due to change in har bor lines Similar reclamation at Ross island ends on H. & X. 5.000 600.000 TO, 000 20,000 Total $;S.r,.i)00 Tills tidy sum would pay me a salary Of $1000 per year for a period of 583 years.

According to statements of Mrs. Hopkins, employes and the girl her self, a ((traitjacket had not been used until after the girl had rut herself with glass, and It was feared that she would seriously injure herself or per haps end her life. The girl tore the straltjacket into shreds and she was then placed In solitary confinement in a storeroom. Jackets Not Commonly Used. Testimony offered yesterday was to the effect that the straltjacket has not been In general use at the school. The one used on Miss Foster had been brought to the school with two girls' from Portland. Two st ral tjackets had been prepared for use in prevent ing them from Injuring themselves, j One of the girls was later found to be j seriously mentally affected and she1 I was removed but the straltjacket re-' mained at the girls' school. I Testimony was also introduced to j J the effect that Miss Foster hd suf-j fered no Ill-effects from the stralt jacket and solitary confinement. Miss Foster, who was quite docile yester day, admitted that she was very angry after she had been brought back to the institution, following her escape, and an attempt was made to make her work in the laundry on a bread and milk diet. According to Mrs. Baldwin, the girl told them that she had not received half the punishment she de served. Miss Foster showed them her arm, on which she had written with a piece nf broken Klass the name of a Port hind young man The glass had not cut very deep, but tile name was quite legible.

She stated later that the advisory board would hold a meeting and rnke a report nd Pr haps some recommendation t the board of control. Strong pressure was brought to bear upon the advisory board by some -Pp" land men and women to recommend the removal of Matron Hopklna, fol lowing the disclosures a to the treat-1 ment of the Foster girl, but Mra.

"Isn't that just like a woman? What Would You Do? EKrTS a real, true story with an Alladin lamp flavor, that the Street and Town reporter ran across: "Decause Frederic M. Kerr, a New York advertising raan, was given 2S hares of Hevhlebem in 1909 and pro ceeded to for;ret it, he found himself richer, on Tuesday by $15,904. The original investment was $336. On Tuesday his holdings in Bethlehem "at the market" were worth $16,240. Mr. Kerr didn't know he had the stock un til Tuesday morning. He was engaged In cleaning out his desk, when he ran across a bundle, and opening it by chance discovered an engraved certifi cate calling for 28 shares of Bethlehem common." The chief reason the Street and Town reporter runs this story here Is that he likes to speculate on what he would do if he found such a Christmas pres ent in his desk. , What would you do? STATE CAPITAL NEWS Salem, Or., Nov.- 9. State Bank Su perintendent Sargent has approved the articles of Incorporation of the Central Oregon bank of Bend, which will open up for business December 1 In the old quarters of the Deschutes State bank.

The public service commission has cited the Southern Pacific railroad to explain an alleged violation of the law requiring electric headlights on engines by operating engine No. 2130 on many trips between Brooklyn and HiUsboro. The state public service commission has set aside $15,888.40 to pay the pensions of Mrs. Robert McCune and daughter, aged 4 years, of Pittsburg, Pa. McCune met death at Portland while employed by the Shaver Trans fer company. When a criminal case ia transferred by a change of venue from one county to another, the district attorney in the county to which the case Is taken can not appear as counsel for the defense, according to an opinion of Attorney General Brown. Instead the district attorney of the county where the case is tried should assist the other district attorney in the prosecution. A district attorney in a county to which a case had been transferred wanted to know if be could defend the accused. Many pleas for and against the re tention of a county agriculturist have been received by the Marion county court, but no definite action will be taken until the annual budget Is made up.
