Car Shipments of
Express to Be Taken
Over by Three Lines
Handling of carload shipments of ex
press will be taken over by the Great
Northern, Northern Pacific and S., P. &
S. railways after January 15. according
to announcement made by W. D. Skin
ner, traffic manager of the S., P. & S.
Tariffs are now being published by the
S., P. & S.
This will be the first time in the his
tory of the three northern roads that
express business has been taken over by
them on their own account. Under "re
cent contract with the American Rail
way Express company, the lines re
served the right to handle milk and
cream and carload lots of other com
modities on their own account for for
warding -on, passenger trains.
The three lines have not definitely de
cided to handle the milk and cream
traffic yet, but tariffs have been pub- I
lished for movement of carload lots of j
fish, clams, crabs, shrimps, oysters, fruit
and vegetables, butter, cheese, poultry
and eggs.
Transference of this business to rail
road supervision will mean competing
business between Portland and eastern
points, as the Union Pacific is still per
mitting the handling of these shipments
by the American Railway Express company.
MEL
SCORES
BUILDING
OWN
ERS
Building owners who start man
damus proceedings to compel the city
council to tesue licenses to soft drink
dealers who buy out dealers put out
of business by the council for con
ducting bootlegging joints are likely
to "start something they canot put
a roof on," according to Commis
sioner John Mann. Commissioner
Barbur said the same.
"The council has only withheld licenses
from new applicants for soft drink
stands because the councilmen consid
ered these men unfit to conduct a busi
ness, or because we were reasonably as
sured the applicant sought the license
to continue an illegal business taking"
advantage of the place being well known
to patrons of bootleggers as a place to
get a drink," Commissioner Barbur said.
"We have no - objections to men of
clean character engaging in business in
tne places closed because of bootlegging,
but if the property owners try to com
pel the council to license undesirables
we will in the future put the responsi
bility. for law violations on the building
owner and hold him equally culpable,'
Commissioner Mann announced.
The council once before was compelled
to hold building owners responsible for
the conduct of their tenants, Barbur
stated; "The tinplate ordinance, placing
the name of building owners on each
structure, had a wonderful effect upon
the renting of hqpses to Immoral women
for. unlawful practices, and that action
of the council was upheld by the courts.
Even now other more rigid ordinances
governing the council's action In stipu
lating where buildings shall be erected
and what they shall be used for stand
approved by the higher courts : -therefore,
I see no reason why the council is
not within its rights in refusing , to
grant licenses to undesirables."
Assistant City Attorney. L. E. Lattour-
ette gave it as his opinion that should
property owners start mandamus pro
ceedings against the council the courts
would hold the council wholly within its
rights in deciding on the fitness or un
fitness of an applicant.
J. F. Dwyer Asks New Trial
A motion asking the federal court to
grant him a new trial was filed Tuesday
by. Joseph F. Dwyer in the patent in
fringement suit he brought against I.
Holsman, Holsman & Co., Paul Har
baugh, Ben Levin, General Novelty
company, and others. Federal Judge
Bean held that the court could not pro
tect the alleged rights of Dwyer, as his
ticket dispensing device had the resem
blance of a gambling or lottery machine.
The new trial is requested on 'the
grounds that there was an error in law
during the trial.
