Gels endorfer, Th Dalles. Third. Vice-President Dr. J. P. Taa lesle, HlUsboro. Secretary Dr. A. D. Mackenzie. Treasurer Dr. Mm CardwelL After a. hot debate in the Oregon State Medical Society yesterday It "was decided that new members would be admitted to the Portland Medical Society hereafter by a majority vote. A committee consisting of Drs. G. F. "Wilson, C J. Smith, A. J. Glesy, S. E. JosephI and W. T. "William son recommended that a committee be appointed to have charge of the admission of new members, and that their vote bo considered final. Drs. H. "Waldo Coe, R. C. Coffey, A. Tilzer and others ob jected to this plan, and a lively discus sion followed. The point before the meeting was the adoption of a new constitution as recom mended ly the National Medical .Associa tion. Tho above committee on constitu tion and by-laws advised that this consti tution be adopted. There was one point of difficulty, however. Tho National asso ciation recognizes but one medical soci ety in a district, and In Portland there are two. The old Portland Medical Society, how known as tho Portland City and County Society, gained recognition at the last meeting of the National convention. In order, then, for the members of tho other society, known as the Multnomah Medical' Society, to become members of this organization It will be necessary for them to change their membership. They cannot come in as a body, and will have to be admitted as individuals. Some of tho doctors oeemed to feel that the Mult nomah County Society had a few members who were not strletly, ethical men. "In their efforts to start a society they took in members that they should not have." said one of them. It was recommended then that a committee be appointed to have charge of the admission of new members. "A committee that will feel the responsi bility will take more pains to investigate a man's record." It was argued, "and they will vote according to the merits In the cane, and not be governed by personal feeling." Other doctors took exception to the views of the committee. "It is not a Just thing for a few to have charge of a question like this," said they. "The question of new members should be a matter for the whole meeting to decide, and the only right way is for the whole meeting to vote and let it be decided by a majority of the votes cast." "Let us vote on adoption of the report recommending the new constitution, and decide this matter afterwards," said a membcrof the" committee, and he made' a motion to that effect. The president was about to put the" question when one of the opposing side, took the-floor. "That Is a schemo to get it through." he said. "We can't let them fool us that way. If we adopt the report of the committee we adopt their recommendation. We- will have to decide this first nnd thon gnnf the report as t amended." After several. iuiu oucu ineir views on tne subject, a rote was taken and it was determined that a. majority should decide upon the new members. It was also rumored that a certain fac tion was making strong moves to capture the convention when the time came for the election of officers. The matter re ceived some little discussion before the call to order, but after the nomination of Dr. Coe for president and it was seen how strong the sentiment was in his favor nothing further was said. Aside from the regular officers the following councilors wer eelected: Dr. "W. D. May, Baker City: Dr. j. Fulton. Astoria: Dr. William Amos. ,!an(lvDr- G' R wRon.

Gilbert At the afternoon session the flrst paper was read by Dr. Coe. "Was Harry Tracy Insane?" which was followed by rSi6 T"?t1men,t a"d pathologj- of Major Epilepsy' by Dr. William House, of Pen dleton. The discussion was opened by Dr. tv. 3. -JosephI. r In the papers read and throughout the discussion it was, agreed that the actions of Tracy during his life were not those of an insane man. Every thing that he did seemed to have a pur pose, and his plans were all well laid. He was a very debased man. and utterly re gardless of ethical consideration for his fellow-man. but could not be considered insane. Owing to the short time left, a large number of the papers had to be omit ted. Dr. A. C. Smith gave an Interesting dis cussion on "The Surgical Treatment of Goitre. He said that the death rate had Deen diminished from 40 per cent to less than 1 per cent In the later development of improved methods of operating. He also dwelt upon the value of making a transverse Incision low on the neck, so that the scar would riot ohow, and brought two of his patients Into the room to show the difference between the old vertical incision and the transverse. "The use of local anesthesia. Instead of general anes thesia, he said, "eliminates all danger of injuring the voice." An interesting talk was aloo given by Dr. Coffey on some odginal work that he had done. The symposium on appendicitis was of pec.al interest, and the meeting held until -after dark. The subject wis discussed as lollows: ' p3SSot". Dr-Kcnneth J- Portla'nlCaOrTr;;atnlet-" Dn AndreW a Smith- GiefrionrSrrauoRs " Dr- An j- Prosnosls." Dr. Jacob A. Fulton.

"There never was a better time for ad vertising the Northwest, and the North west was jievcr better prepared for new comers," said R. H. Hall, advertising agent of the O. R. & N. Co., yesterday. "Reports from our Immigration agents are most encouraging, and a great tide of homeseekers is about to flow this way. We must look after them well when they arrive, for if we do many of them will ) stay. There arevopportunltles enough here xor an. "The best way to advertise Portland and Oregon is to keep everlastingly let ting the world know through type who and what and where we are and what we have that others wan!. The motto of all advertising is, 'Never let up The book let which the commercial bodies of this city are about to get out for the Immigra tion bureau of our lines Is a step In the right direction. "Persistent and constant advertising al ways wins. To cite a few examples: About two years ago a leading depart ment store was paying less than $1000 a month for space to tell about goods and prices. A new man, with new ideas, alive to the value of advertising, took charge of the advertising. What was the result? In less than six months he was paying some thing like $1500 a month to the same pa pers, and the business of the house in creased accordingly. Today tho adver tising bill of the house passes $25,000 a 'year, , and there is every Indication that it will go higher. Look to tho Northwest and see what publicity has done for the cities of Seattle, Tacoma, and other Pugct Sound places. They are spending thou sands annually, keeping their names and the opportunities in and near them be for the people of the Eastern States. "Then again, look to the south of us. For weeks the Chamber of Commerce of Sacramento, Cal., wrestled with the ques. tlon of the best means of advertising that city. Correspondence was opened with several advertising agencies, relative to a general scheme of advertising In East ern publications. Replies to tho letters of Inquiry were discussed, and a plan was decided upon. As adopted, it pre sents a uniform advertisement, ol strik ing design, two Inches In" length and one column In width, prepared with the view of attracting' inquiries for literature and other1 Information, In a total of 1713 pub lications, at a cost of $392 60 a month. Tho list is a splendid one. The Chamber of Commerce depends, upon argument con tained in the literature and an adequate 'follow-up' system to 'land' those whose interest has been created by the adver tisement. "In the 'follow-up system the names received are entered upon cards, and lit erature or letters are sent these persons each month. An accurate record Is kept of Inquiry made, of all literature sent and all letters received. ,The Chamber of. Commerce has also prepared a set of 12 pamphlets, uniform in size and style, containing 16 pages, about 6x9 Inches, and each pamphlet Is devoted to a particular product or subject. These pamphlets are used In following up the Inquiries, and in this manner an Inquirer is given lit erature upon the subject In which he is Interested, and Is not compelled to read dozens of pages before he is able to And the desired subject. "For myself, I am a firm believer in plain facts, plainly told, backed up by figures. This Is what the general -public can understand, and It Is what tho people want. One of the cheapest ways to ad vcrtlso Is to have a slip printed containing In terse" form facts about Portland, and induce each business man in the city to inclose this slip in every letter sent. It will cost no additional postage, and should every letter that leaves Portland con tain one of these slips, much advertising would be done In this way. If the mer chants do not believe it, let It be tried for six months, and I am sure they will have cause to change their minds. Then PHYSICIANS IN ACTION AT THE STATE MEDICAL there are hundreds of other persons who would be glad to secure the slips and would gladly nd them. "The Portland newspapers deserve much credit for the work they are doing In spreading the news about the great Northwest Every article pertaining to this city or section of the Union does much good. A few weeks ago, after my return from the three weeks' trip over this state and Washington with our Immigra tion party, I was interviewed by an Ore gonlan reporter and gave a recital of the trip. The article made something like a column. Yesterday I received a copy of a leading New York City paper, with the article republished from The Oregonlan and credited to it. Of course thousands read the article as It appeared In the New York paper, and a number of New York people have written me for more In formation." Temple Beth Israel. After an absence from the Temple of seven months' duration, during which time extensive alterations have been completed and the Interior virtually re constructed, the congregation will resume Its services in the Tempfe this evening at S o'clock. Rev. Dr. Stephen S. Wise will preach on the subject, "Tho Place of the House of God In the Life of Man." A special musical programme has been ar ranged for the. services of tonight.

TEACHERS' ARE TAUGHT PROMINENT EDUCATORS TELL THEM HOW TO SUCCEED. Helpfal Suggestions na to Methods Arc Made on Second Day of Institute. X The second day of the Multnomah County teachers' annual institute opened under rather unfavorable auspices, "for the edge had been worn from the enthusi asm of more than one teacher by the previous day's work, and the uncomfort able atmosphere deterred many from at tending. Nevertheless, the Institute was full of Interest and the rooms were fairly well filled. Work In the four sections oc cupied the morning, and in tho afternoon the teachers listened to addresses by three eminent educators. Music, as usual. Interspersed the programme, and the NEW PRESIDENT STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY. DR. If. W. COE, leader. W. H. Boycr. not satlsfled with the first half-hearted effort, kept the teachers to their task until they sang In unison and with good effect. Number work, under Mrs. J. Llsher, was again taken up in the primary section. As the work was voluntary, several teach ers made suggestive talks, while Superin tendent Frank Rlgler spoke on reading and W. G. Hartranft upon language. The Intermediate section was addressed by W. G. Hartranft on "How to Interest Children In Books." The sum of his very practical remarks was: "First In terest the child In story books, and leave those of deep thought till later." Many material illustrations were used by J. Burnham in his talk on "Climate," while T. P. Heaton spoke upon "Reading." The advanced department listened with interest to W. C. Hawley on "Organiza tion of the American Revolution." T. L. Heaton addressed the county sec tion upon "The -Dally Programme," and gave many helpful suggestions. The afternoon session was taken up by three addresses of general Interest. Taking "Reconstruction After the Civil War" as his subject. W. C. Hawley said: "There were two! divisions of the Re publican party those who thought that the Confederate States should be still fur ther humiliated, and those who thought that they should be restored to state hood. It was a great calamity that John son succeeded Lincoln, for he had showed that he was more severe In his attitude toward the South than Lincoln, but within three months he turned from one wing of the party to tho other. In his opinion he could not punish a state for treason, and he must punish the leaders. Soon after he became" President the Southern States were practically restored and the men of the black belt led in every political move ment. The question of whether or not tho South had actually accepted the results of the war was stirring the North. The radicals thought It had not, but It ls-now conceded that they had." Here the speaker Introduced a graphic picture of the desolation of the South and the ruin of the planters, but stated that his at titude was not a personal one, but from the standpoint of a student of history. ''Grant, Seward and others believed that the South was sincere, but the radi cal wing was against tjiem. The South was on dangerous ground, for the ne groes, lazy or Improvident, were a prob lem In themselves. Men prominent In the Confederate Government and Army were sent to Washington, and the radi cals raised a storm of protest. The 'Mis sissippi plan consisted In forcing negroes to work. or. if they would not work, to bind them to any wriltc man who would pay their fine for laziness and compel them to "work for him. This finally re duced the negro to a state of s:avery. Then the Government plan of providing the negroes with M0 acres and a mule was tried, but the blacks were not ready to take care of themselves. Until 1867 the local government was completely In the hands of the Southern whites. John son declared that such men as Wendell Phillips and Charles Sumner were as much traitors as the Confederates The 'reconstruction act' rep".accd the local gov ernments with an arbitrary military gov ernment, and the states were forced to ratify the 14th amendment. Then began the 'carpet-bag regime,' by which- the South wns plundered and such things as the Ku-KIux Klan became a natural con clusion. In )S76' the South was recon structed over again, with the white man on top." , s In closing" he said: "The South must 'have a government of the people, but the great problem is how 21 W. G. Hartranft followed with "Manual Training." Taking the useless buttons of a coat sleeve as an lilustratloh, he said: "There are many buttons upon educa tional questions. The great points toward which we should aim are the consolida tion of country schools and manual train ing. The best idea is that of teaching children to do something rather than that they should know something. If manual training knocked out of our schools much of our arithmetic, grammar and physiol ogy, it would be a bettter thing for the children. The mechanic Is today assured of a better livelihood than the man of letters." T. P. Heaton then spoke upon "Alms and Methods of Discipline," in which he said: "Bad discipline is not a separate dis ease, but a symptom, and where there Is bad discipline there is bad teaching. Doc tor the disease, and not the symptom. OF PORTLAND. Sentiment governs the schpol, and a wise teacher creates the sentiment."- Xetv Logging: Rnllrond Incorporated, Articles Incorporating the Clatskanle & Nehalem Railroad Company were filed In the County Clerk's office yesterday by E. E. Coovcrt. S. Benson and A. S. Benson. The authorized capital is 150,000. The ob jects announced are to construct, equip and operate a railroad from Clatskanle, running thence In a southerly direction to a point on the Nehalem River near tho town of Vernonla, together with a branch line extending from the main line and running in a southerly direction up the Clatskanle River to a point 23 miles up said river from its mouth. S. Benson, one nf the incorporators; says this will be merely a logging road, though it will be of standard gauge and connect with the Astoria Railroad at Clat skanle. Construction is expected to begin next Spring and about seven miles of the road will be put in operation next SOCIETY SESSIONS. ! t Co- year. Then extensions will be made as there shall seem to be demand for them. Logs will be brought by rail to be sawed In mills on the Columbia. A few shingle mills will be taken into the forest to make iwe of the timber that will not pay for transportation out In a raw state. WILL FIGHT TO A FINISH ENGINEERS AlSD STEAMBOAT MES EQUALLY DETERMINED. Attempt BeinsrMade to Bring In Men Prom Outside Steamer Elmore ' Ties Up. Union engineers idle and all the river boats, with a few exceptions, running with nonunion men, sums up tha situa tion in the marine engineers' strike. It Is apparently a question of waiting ori either side to sea which will held out the longer. With the withdrawal of union engineers, the O. R. & N- Co. laid up the T, J. Potter, and when the Elmore came in last night she, too, tied up for an indefinite period. On the towboat Harvest Queen, advantage was taken of the occasion to wash her boilers, and the Hassalo was temporarily placed In the towing business. All the other companies which had not been running with non union men quickly secured engineers to take the strikers' places, and the boats were sent out according to schedule. This applies to the White Collar Line. Regula tor Line, Oregon City Company, Captain Karam's 'boats and the other transporta tion companies. The strikers are as determined as ever to fight It out to a finish. Being In this frame of mind and having ample re sources, they see no reason why the struggle could not be prolonged for a year If necessary to win their point. "What we are fighting for." said Secre tary Smith yesterday, "Is reinstatement. The companies are trying o get away from this point, but they can't. We are' in the fight td stay, and can stand it as long as the steamboat men can. When they get tired losing money and running down their boats with incompetent men,, perhaps they will consider our demands for recognition, fair play and proper wages. Just now they are trying to bring -tn men from the outside, from Shoalwater Bay, Rogue River and such points, but they are not having any suc cess." The O. R. & N. Co., the strikers say. realize the danger In putting nonunion men in charge of their expensive boats, and would rather tie them up to the docks. The O. R. & N. people, on the other hand, profess to be gjad of the op portunity to give up an unprofitable busi ness. "We have been running these boats." they say, "to keep the men at work, and now If they don't want to work, why. that's all there Is to It." The Hassalo, It Is said, can take care of all the company's towing business, and as for the passenger trade, they declare there is no profit in it, anyway. Captain F. B. Jones-is running his towboats Vulcan and Gamecock with nonunion men, and would, have .his other boat in service but for a lack of business. The Altona, Ramona and Leona, of the Graham Line, went out on time with nonunion engineers. On the Regulator, the chief and second engineers gave up their posts, but others were on hand to take the vacant places. The Portland-Astoria business Is being han dled by the Bailey Gatzert. of the White Collar Line, and the Vancouver Trans portation Company's steamer Lurline. CASE OF THE POLAMHALL. Big Steamer Goes to the Sonnd to Complete Cargo. The big steamer Polamhall went over to Montgomery dock yesterday, and by working late last night completed the Portland end of her wheat and barley cargo, some 4000 tons. Today she will leave for Tacoma, finishing there with 2000 tons, and sailing thence for St. Vincent All this grain should have been shipped from Portland. The reason It was not. accord ing td the charterers, pilots and others concerned, Is the Tack of water at the mouth of the Columbia. Along the water front there Is no end of complaint, prin cipally directe'd against the Port of Port land Commission, at the way things are going. The. money Is on hand for deep ening the channel, but they say nothing Is being done in that direction. Natural advantages or disadvantages, in their view, have nothing to do with the case. They point to Manchester. Liverpool Dunkirk and other places In Europe where great ports have been made where for merly scarcely a harbor existed. Ocean dredges have been proved a success else where and might be tried here. While this indignation Is being expressed over the state of affairs, the assertion la made that It Is not the river that Is to blame Tom Dolg, the pilot, who has seen long years of bar service and Is trying to get a branch from the State Board of Pilot Commissioners, declares positively that the bar Is not to blame. He says there la enough water there, and If he Is given a HcensQ he will undertake to pilot out any ships that come along without the necessity of sending them to Tacoma to load down to their full draught. Siberia's Successful Trial. NEWPORT NEWS. Va., Sept. 11. The r.ew steamship Siberia, built here for the Pacific Mall Steamship Company, re turned to Old Point last night after a most successful trial at sea, making a maximum speed f 21 knots. The Siberia left hero at 12:15 o'clock Monday and made the run of SCO miles from the capes to Nantucket Shoals In 20 hours, averag ing IS knots an hour under natural condi tions. Coming back several spurts were made, and the Siberia ran easily from 19 to 21 knots an hour. She will leave In about two weeks for San Francisco. Not a Log Was Lost.
