Garrison, Receiver of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit com- argument conccrmnir the rijrht of Service Commission to permit the raise the Tire on its surfacejmes to eight cents. , The decision of the court that the' Commission5 has no jurisdiction over the fare when the fare is stated, in teh franchises stands. Corporation Counsel John P. O'Brien said last night that the decision, of the Court of Appeals gave pleasure; to the Mayor. 'It .means," he said! "that the highest. Court in the state, has adhered1 to; its decision of last July,rln which it followed the ruling, made, in the -famous Quinby case in April, 1918, where it held that the Public Service Commissions are without power to override , the five-cent fare ated by a city in granting a franchise."- I fl l.si Ih en3 FOR Means 5c Fare i Vote Ballot 9 X Stanffieldl a Straimgeir to Swift Chamberlain lore Liable tp Partnership Charger Than Stanf ield STANFIELD'S OWN STATEMENT H- Portland, Oregon, October 28, 1920. The Journal To the Editor: My attention has been called to certain adver tisements and articles in your paper in which it is alleged that I am a partner of Swift & Company and of Mr. L. F. Swift, in various livestock and business enterprises. This allegation is untrue for I am not a partner in Swift & Company or any of its sujxjrdinate. establishments, nor have I any partnership arrangement with Mr. L. F. Swift. I have" never met Mr. Swift except at a stockmen's ( banquet in Chicago and have never discussed busi ness matters with him. I own only 130 out of 4000 shares in the Co lumbia Basin Wool Warehouse Company, which is a corporation engaged in the purchase, storage and sale of wool, with headquarters in the city of Portland. I made my subscription to this enter prise in order to help put Portland on the map as a wool center. The remainder of the 4000 shares is divided among a large number of stockholders, most of whom are business men of the city of Portland,, although Mr. Swift owns several shares of stock. The stock of this company was bought and sold on the market and the fact that I own a few shares and that Mr. Swift also is a stockholder does not in any sense make me a copartner of Mr.'Swift I own only five shares of the 1000 shares 4f the Livestock State Bank at North Poitlind. Mr. Swift is also a stockholder in this concern but it is not a copartnership and those who own stock are in no sense partners. A number of the stockholders- both, of the Columbia Basin Wool Ware house Company-; and the Livestock State Bank .also own snares of stock in the United States National Bank of Portland. v Senator George E. - Chamberlain is stockholder" and director in this bank, but it would be the height of folly to charge him with being a partner of the other stockholders and directors of this institution. I own no shares whatever in the Portland Cattle Loan Co. ' I am engaged , primarily in the sheep business, although I have cattle and other agricultural in terests. I raise and purchase sheep and cattle and have frequently sold both through the Union Stock Yards of Chicago, and in some instances have sold to Swift & Company, but I have also sold to vari ous other packing plants in Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City, St Joseph and North Portland. I have sold beef and mutton on the open market but the fact that I have sold at times to Swift & Company does not in any sense make me a partner in any of their enterprises. My business is a legitimate7 one and needs no defense. I am not a speculator but a producer and a large employer of men, and a large purchaser of all materials. I have at times owned shares of stock in various enterprises, but it would require a very wide stretch of the imagination to picture me as a farmer of the other stockholders! many, of whom have never seen and who are entirely unknown, tome. I had hoped that the present campaign would be . conducted in a clean and dignified way with due. regard for the issues of the day and with no con sideration of irrelevant issues. 1 have no objection whatever to a full and free discussion of mv record as a business man, provided this is an adherence to facts. I feel that I have been misrepresented in the matter of the alleged partnership with Swift & Company and Mr. L. F. Swift, I therefore take this opportunity of informing the public as to the exact state of the affairs. v; Yours very truly, ' y.y . R. N. STANFIELD.
