14: THE MO$XI2G 'OREGON AS. THURSDAY, MARCH 2&, 1903. DUNSMUIR, CALIFORNIA WHERE THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC HAS A PAYROLL OF $15,000 A MONTH jr SODA -SPRINGS RESORTS DUXSMUIR. CaL. March 15. Special correspondence.) "Twenty minutes for supper," calls oiit the brakezn&n on the Southern Pacific train as It slows up at Dunsmulr. and the paseengera are evi dently ready for the announcement, for there Is a general movement to set off the train. Lookjrie out the car -windows & lone row of business houses are seen -on the hillside above the level of the rallrpad track, brilliantly Ushted by elec tricity, and ioon the clanc-clanc-clang Is heard of half a dozen cones directing the $85en?ers where to And something: to eat. the -price; ranging: from 15 to 50 cents. "There 1s bustle and confusion, a rush and a scramble, but before the allotted time has expired all are through eating and saunter leisurely back to the train. Passenger trains arrive here at 7:30 and 9:30 in the ' morning, and Yi30 ana 9:20 in the evening, and thoee hours are the greatest events the day in Dunsmulr. This is an eating station and the accommodations ore ampie and service excellent. Five hundred can be fed at once, and 200 furnished with lodgings. Dunsmulr residents are accustomed to seeing stranger's, and they welcome the tourist and traveler, and any person you may meet, be It man, woman, schoolboy or -schoolgirl, will give you a respectful CRttwer lo any reasonable nuestion. Dur ing the Summer months there are hundreds of visitors here and'aa they wander about seeing and being seen, no attention is paid to their belns strangers. Dunsmulr is a division of the railroad, and conductors, brakemen, engineers and firemen, aostal clprks and express mess engers "lay off" here. Eighteen freight trains pull out every day. and their crews lay off. It Is estimated that 150 employes of the Southern Pacific Railroad in above capacities make their partial head quarters here and spend more or less of their money. Here are also 'helper" en gines, the roundhouse having 18 stalls, and there is a railroad blacksmith shop, ma chine shop, carpenter shop, for general re pairs, with employes numbering 100 to 150, and these permanently reside In Dunsmulr and have families and dwellings, their residences being very homelike and even elegant. It Is Winter now, and the stocjt hills towering hundreds of feet above the town on both sides of the Sacramento River, are covered with snow. The population now Is Its very smallest "When Summer comes hundreds of visitors are here to enjoy the bracing mountain air, the cool ing breezes and partake of the warer from the several soda springs near by. The census of 1900 gave Dunemulr a pop ulation of C50, but the people hero claim the town has 1200 to 1500, and Is the largest town, in Siskiyou County. They are anx ious to attain that distinction. The en rollment at the public school, where are four teachers. Is 220, which would Indi cate a population of more than 1000. Summer Rcnorts. Just above town Is Upper Soda Springs and a mile further Shasta Hetreat, and three miles from Dunsmulr the well known ShaBta Springs, alongside the rail road track, where all passenger trams stop live minutes to allow passengers to par take of the bubbling soda water. At each of these places are accommodations for Summer visitors and there are camping grounds, furnished tents (at $15 a month) furnished Summer cottages (at $25 a month) and hotels at $10 and $12 a week. A very nice class of people assemble here every Summer, and the residents are anx ious to see them enjoy their visit, so that tjiey will come again, and each year these resorts are becoming more popular. Each of them in provided with water systems carried to each camp and cottage, and it Is proposed later Introducing electric lights. Dunsmulr has waterworks, a gravity sys tem with 300 feet fall, and -as a protection against fire there are over 40 hydrants. The abundance of water Is taken ad vantage of by the citizens and. there are green lawn6 and flowerbeds in many of the yards. The streets, stores and resi dences are lighted by electricity. In addition to being a Tailroad division and the center of the Summer resorts there are a number- of sawmills near the town, and the payrolls In the mills and camps add to the prosperity. The lumber business la increasing in importance each year, and new mills are being added. Property on the main street rents at high prices and town lots there are "held at from S0S) to $7000 for each 50 feet front age. On the streets higher up the hill side, where are the residences, lots sell at from $100 to $300 yich. Only a small portion of the residence part of town can be seen from the railroad, as It is located on a bench, back out of sight; where also are the three churchesCatholic, Episcopal and Methodist and the four room schoolhouse. Through the liberality of the railroad company and citizens of the town, there is a fine reading-room in tho second story of the depot building; also a circulating library of over 700 volumes, the monthly dues being 50 cents. Dunsmulr, as a division point on the Southern Pacific Railroad, has tho assur ance of a permanent payroll. The rail Toad company's roundhouse Is a substan tial brick, with stalls for IS locomotives and 25 men are employed. The machine shop, also of brick, is S5x250 and employs 75 men. The car shops are of wood, 75x200 and employ 25 men. A K5.000-barreroll tank Is completed and the loading and unloading apparatus hav ing been delayed is tho reason why oil burning engines are not yet in use. Forty live ensrlncs run out of Dunsmulr. both north and south. A rotary enowi)Iow. box plows, headlight plows and Hangers for Winter use. are kept here, and also a wrecking outfit and crew. A $50,000 steel turntable Is soon to replace the present, and SO-pound steel rails are to replace the present 60-pound Vails from Sacra mento to Portland, tho work being now in progress here. Dunsmulr has fwo general merchandise stores, two dry goods stores, two drug storos. six saloons, three churches, one livery stable, one cigar factory, two hotels two restaurants, throe lodging-houses, one jewelry store, one newspaper, two de livery firms, one tailor, one shoemaker one photo gallery, four barber shops, ono racket store, two millinery stores, one news 6tand. one butcher shop, one black smith shop, two roal estate agents, two doctors, two sawmills, one planing mill, two box factories, one brass band OB pieces). Some of the well-known residents of Dunsmulr are: J. T. Harlans. A. L. Grimes. Joseph McMann. O. Dixon. Charles O. Clarke. J. B. Dougherty. A. M. Leach Lan Fossen. W. B. Beem. F. H. Sim VJJohn Massn.

It seems to be the regular thing for Speakers of the House of Representatives to go to New York and join great cor poration law firms. This is a little like the rule that a Controller of the Currency always becomes president of a great citi bank on his retirement from office. But that rule. Is easier to understand. As Con troller of the Currency a man makes a very large acquaintance among the bank ers of the country. No one is so -well -rcrclppen .as .himself tp gabxior a great cliy bank a large number of profitable correspondents. But how on earth does the position of Speaker of the House train a man to be a great corporation lawver? Mr- Reed was a great man, and his name, like -Mr. Cleveland's, would lend lustre to any law firm. But Speaker Hender son is by no means a great man. What personal acquaintance or epeclal legal knowledge has he gained by presiding -o'ver four scsstdns of Congress- to make him a desirable acquisition to a New York firm? Perhaps, we shall know better when the nature of his legal position has been divulged. One rumor Is that he is to' be counsel for the Morgan steamship trust. That Is the kind of position ex members of Congress often take; but we do not remember that any ex-Speaker ever undertook to look after the legis lative business of a great corporation. Mr. Reed would not have been worth his salt as a member of the third house. EGG-LAYING CONTEST, Oregon Hen a Produce Some Substan tial Results of Industry. There will be no market for eggs by Easter Sunday if Oregon hens continue to astound their masters in such a marvelous manner as they have done dur- Ing the past few days. Sallle, a promis ing Gresham pullet, surprised her owner recently with a three-ounce egg. The egg was brought to The Oregonlan office and its likeness published In the next morn lng's paper. This evidently made 'proud Desdemona, a maidenly hen who resides in La Grande, Jealous, for the following day she laid an egg entirely outclassing Sallle's effort and Mrs. H. C Montgomery, Desdemona's mistress, announced, through the press, the wonderful feat of Des demona. The Willamette Valley is noted for poul try raising and the disgrace of seeing the egg-laying laurels cross the Blue Moun tains considerably ruffled the Western hens. The result was that Eunice, an old and experienced hen, belonging to J. H. Settleraler, of Woodburn, Or., determined to wipe out the disgrace and succeeded in so doing with a four-ounce egg, eight Inches In circumference lengthwise and six and one-half Inches in circumference in width. The pullets looked upon this as marvelous and the old hens refused to believe the story. One proud black Minorca however, whose homo Is In Port land, had been watching the contest in silence. Yesterday morning Mr. J. P. Wentz. her owner, was awakened at an early hour by a loud cackling in his hen house. Thinking some unscrupulous per son might be availing himself of some of his fat pullets he ran to the hen house, gun in hand, determined to 'punish the thief. There was no thief to be found, but there on the floor, surrounded by the en tiro population of the hen house, was the black Minorca, a smile of satisfac tion beaming on her face. At her feet lay an egg whose circumference in length was nine and one-half inches, circumference in width seven and three-quarter inches and just a full half pound In weight. The egg-laying tournament has been concluded and the black Minorca will defend the state championship. The egg may be seen at Mr. Wentz's home at 923 Halght street. VARIED CRITICISM. The "Other Side" of a Number of Matters Presented. BAKER CITY. March 24. (To the Edi tor.) As The Oregonlan has always been the standard-bearer for every movement in the interests of the people at large, and as it has for 50 years been most fair In Its treatment in every public subject, and has been willing to give each side to any controversy a hearing in ita pages, I have to ask a short space In which to correct some of the statements made In the re cent issues of The Oregonlan, particular ly letters from Salem and Arlington on the subject of the "referendum In the matter of tho recently passed corpora tion tax and portage railway bills. Calling names and mud-throwing Is neither argument nor business. I hap pen to be tho one referred to in the Ar lington letter signed by S. A. D. GAirley as the "young upstart," and, while rep resenting tills matter for myself and friends In the mining districts of Eastern Oregon, as well as friends In Southern Oregon, and mercantile firms, I am not so young, but that possibly my "start up" was a few years in advance of our Ar lington friend. I must deny that the Eastern Oregon people generally, or my self in particular, have any grudge against Portland, in any shape, manner or form. On tho contrary, we have done everything In our power to advance the Interests of the Port of Portland, be lieving that the supremacy of the Oregon metropolis means prosperity for every sectlon of the stite. It has seemed at times, however, to some of us. that Port land did not care much for us. and that we might possibly do much better as a separate state. We are not opposing the corporation capital stock tax and the portage railway bills because we think they will benefit Portland, giving us op portunity to vent jealous spite, but those of us who have studied the situation and who have consulted with Southern Ore gon mining men. real estate corporations and Portland incorporated mercantile firms are opposing these measures on business principles only. Without going Into details. I simply want to state that if, like Missouri, Ore gon desires to stay in the rear guard of the army of progress, all she has to do is to frighten Eastern capital and impose such heavy taxes on corporations doing business here as will close up all small mining operations and prevent the expm sion of larger properties. The demand among the farmers for the taxation of corporations is not a new one. and its legitimate carrying out in the East and Middle West Is what is now driving thou sands of homeseekers to the Pacific Coast. There Is scarcely any business today, even stockraislsg ana farming, that Is not incorporated. Ninety per cent of the real estate and mercantile firms of the state win have to pay this new corporation tax, and most of them cannot afford to do so. as their property Is also taxed to the limit. I venture the assertion that there Is not a large build ing in the City of Portland or improved real -estate anywhere in the state that la not now taxed beyond the limit and as sessed at more than its actual value on a 6 per cent dividend-paying basis; The people of the state have gener ously, through their representatives in the Legislature, just voted $500,000 in aid o the Lewis and CI irk Fair. All property In the state will have to contribute, and even in the faco of the good crops and heavy Teturns from the mines, lumbering, cattle and other Industries, in the past three years, the burden will fall heavily. Now, as to the objection to the action of some of us in regard to the portage railway bill: The mining men, generally speaking, real estate men and others who favor the repeal of the portage bill have several good reasons for so doing. With the special tax bills passed at the last Legislature, including the necessary budget for running the state, there is added $165,000 for the building of a port age railway between The Dalles and Ce Hlo, and the mines, real estate com panies', mercantile corporations and cat tle companies are taxed on their capital stock, in addition to their general taxes to pay for this piece of state railroading. A portage railway at this time is not VIEW OF DCSSanJIR, CAL. good public policy. A portage railway should never be built. In the first place, the bill does not provide one-third of the cost of construction, as any engineer of experience will say. The bill does not provide for the carrying out of its own objects. It is simply an unconstitutional leech on the people to satisfy a fad of the .farming districts growing out of con ditions which existed long ago, but are now dead. By the time enough money can be raised by future Legislatures to build the road, provide right of way, ex pensive terminal facilities and operating expenses, the United States .Government canal betweentho same points will have been completed. The Federal engineers are at work on the canal, ample money has been provided for its construction, and it is conceded that about six years not to exceed eight will see its comple tion. At the present rate of appropria tion. It will take ten years to build the portage railway. We ask why it is necessary that the growing Industries of the state should be taxed to death and a large portion of the money simply thrown away. These are some of the reasons why we want to see both of the bills repealed. Is there a bank in the State of Oregon that would advance $165,000 to begin construction work on this forlorn hope of a portage railway when the Federal authorities have commenced work on the only true solution of Columbia River transporta tion? It is needless to say that no sane, banker would put up the money under all the existing conditions. Why should the state do it? Why should the people be burdened for a useless fad? Some day the last straw will be laid on the camel's back and the break must come. Oregon's camel can carry only a few more loads. W. C. COWGILLu HE PRESSED THE BUTTON How Dick Sutton Cut Short His Omi Dinner. "Uncle" Dick Sutton, tho theatrical magnate of Butte, Mont., and well known as the vice-president of tho Northwest ern Theatrical Association, recently par took of an "electric" dinner at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Cordray, and will not forget the occasion for some Tittle time, as the joke Is on him. All the same, however, he had a most excellent dinner until tho electricity shut him off. Sev eral days ago Mr. Sutton had occasion to visit Portland on business matters, and. to his great pleasure, found himself Invited to dine with Mr. and Mrs. Cor dray, at their home on the East Side. Mr. Sutton is known as a very jovial, good-hearted man. and every one who knows him loves him for his many good qualities. He was enjoying his dinner when something occurred that not only embarrassed the jovial "Uncle Dick," but his host and hostess as well. It is not generally known that Mr. Cordray is somewhat of an electrician, but he Is. From his bedside he can push a button operated by electricity, with signals to summon the police, a physi cian and his lawyer, if necessary. In order to save his wife's table maid un necessary steps in walking from the dining-room to the culinary department and vice versa, ho placed an invisible button in the dining-room floor, near tho placa where Mrs. Cordray usually sits. When this button is touched, the sound of tho bell is only heard in a distant portion of the house, and the maid heard the first signal to remove the dishes used in the first course. Now, "Uncle Dick" was hungry that day, and ho was in tho last stage of tho second course, and enjoying the dinner Immensely, when he acci dentally placed his right foot over the button located in the floor. Of course "Uncle Dick" did not know what he had done but the maid did. She demurely entered the dining-room and removed the dishes, according to directions, but "Uncle Dick" had not finished. Mr. and Mrs. Cordray were much embarrassed by the odd circumstance and did not realize for the moment what had happened. "Uncle Dick" looked up in blank aston ishment and said "Well, I guess it was about time that I did quit; but how did that girl know It?" His host and hostess of course expressed their apologies. "Uncle Dick" says he will keep a good look-out for the push-button In future. Art Work and Advertising. It would be to the advantage of a good many -of the business houses of Portland to communicate with Barnhart and Swasey, 107 New Montgomery street, San Vrancisco, ip regard to the preparation of their advertising copy. This Arm makes a specialty of art work and booklets. They have a large staff of artists, and can draw and make illustra tions for every purpose. They have had a good many years of experience in ad vertising al. kinds of business, and have met with unusual success in making the advertisements of their clients-profitable. Their cuts and engravings are probably the best that are made in California. In thel- art department they do a large business with printers, getting up fancy letterheads, cover designs, labels, eta, for the trade. They are the only con cern In the Wc-st catering aggressively to this business. HARRIMAM'S NEW LINES GETS THE CALIFORNIA NORTH WESTERN AND ITS LEASEHOLD. Railroad Extending TJp tae Coast From San Francisco Bay It Gets Into the Tall Timber. . SAN FRANCISCO, March 25. The Call this morning says: The California Northwestern Railway and its leased appendix, the San Francisco & North Pacific Railway, have passed from the control of A. W. Foster and his associates to the syndicate over which President Harriman, of the Southern Pa cific Company, dominates. The deal, which has been agitating local railroad circles for some time, has been made. The suspicion that the Coast road was about to be transferred to the Santa Fo Road as a connection between its re cently acquired properties in Humboldt County and tne San Francisco Bay has been set at rest, for it has developed that Mr. Harriman has practically owned the road for several wec-ks, in fact longer than that. The Santa Fe officials learned that they could not buy the California Northwestern, and they immediately turned their attention to other means of reaching Northern California, eventually securing the Eel River & Eureka Rail road, In Humboldt County, and then opening negotiations with President John Martin, of tho North Shore Road, with a view of buying that lately improved and extended property. The deal in the stock of the California Northwestern, or at least the majority of it, which is controlled by President A. W. Foster, dates back several months, but has been kept a secret. It Is said the formal announcement of the change in tho management will not be made un til alter the annual meeting of the Strath em Pacific stockholders In New York next month. Although It cannot bo confirmed, the report In financial circles is that Mr. Har riman gets the 25 miles of road owned by the California Northwestern, and the 153 miles of line which are included in the holdings of the San Francisco & North Pacific Railway, at $32 a share, which means to Mr. Foster something like $1,654,000, as he owns 55,000 shares. Mr. Foster will retire from the railroad busi ness. (The California Northwestern, like the Southern Pacific' Company, owns no rail road. It operates the lines of the San Francisco & North Pacific Railway from TIburon, on San Francisco Bay, to Uklah, with several short branches, the total mileage being 165. The equipment Includes 24 locomotives, 70 passenger cars and 456 freight cars, and three ferry boats be tween San Francisco and TIburon. The out standing stock aggregates $1,566,000 and the bonded debt Is $3,993,000.) EUREKA AS RAILROAD CENTER. Klamntb Basin May Be Connected With Humboldt Bay. The movement, described In yesterday's dispatches which looks to making the 'long-neglected port of Eureka on the Northern California coast a railroad cen ter, has In it an Important element of Interest for Oregon. East and northeast of Eureka there is a wide timber belt into which a railroad is now being built; In the general direction of Ager's Station, near the point of Junction of the Klamath River and the line of. the Southern Pacific railroad. From Ager's Station a line of railroad is now under construction north east Into the great timber fields west of Big Klamath Lake. It takes no very pro found reflection to seo interesting possi bilities in this eituation. Before anybody has discovered it the Klamath Basin upon which Portland, San Francisco and f3alt Lake are casting longing eyes may have a way of Its own to market and a short cut at that at Port Eureka by way of the lines of logging railroad above described; for, while these little railroads are both nominally for local purposes it does not escape notice that they may easily be connected and that both are being built in a solid way with track, bridges and other arrangements for heavy and per manent work. If tho Business of the Klamath Basin la to be gained and held for Portland, it Is time somebody was "getting busy." ISCREASES ITS CAPITAL.

In reply to an inquiry concerning the report published in New York that the New Y6rk Central had passed Into the" hands 6f the RocKefeller-Pennsylvanla-Morgan Inter ests with his consent, Mr. Vanderbllt sent the following note to the Associated Pres3 reporter: "There Is no truth in the statement that the New York Central has passed into other hands.

The Inter state Commerce Commission today Issued an order requiring common' carriers sub ject to the act to regulate commerce to publish in their rate sheets what. If any, cartage or other kind of terminal service they Drovide or allow. The order states that rebates, or concessions from tariff, or advantages to shippers or consignees which change the aggregate charge to the shippers are plainly affected by free cart age or other forms of terminal facilities not Included In the ordinary service, un less such cartage allowance or other kinds of terminal service is specified in the pub lished schedules. Newman Will Remain. NEW YORK. March 25. President W. H. Newman, of the New York Central Railroad, in an interview today, declined to either deny or affirm the reported change of control of that road. Asked whether he contemplated retiring from the presidency, he said: "Certainly not. I shall not leave my position, no matter into whose control the company may have gone." A representative of the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Co. said that so far as that firm was concerned the report was not true. Merger of Indiana Trolley Lines. CLEVELAND, O., March 25. The Fort Wayne Traction Company, of Fort Wayne, Ind.. capitalized at $2,000,000. has been sold by Cleveland parties to a syndicate com posed of G. F. McCulloch. of Indianapolis; Henry Paul and State Senator Fleming, of Fort Wayne, and Levering Jones, of Philadelphia. It Is understood that the road will be merged with a number of other Indiana suburban and interurban electric traction lines, forming a big sys tem covering a large portion of the state. Pennsylvania Not Absorbed. PHILADELPHIA. March 23. An official of the Pennsylvania Company said that that company had not entered Into a Rockefeller-Morgan-Pennsylvania combi nation by which It is to secure control of the New York Central Railroad. He said: "The story Is absolutely without founda tion in fact and Is wholly unwarranted. There Is nothing In it so far as the Penn-. sylvanla is concerned." Santa Fe Tracklayers Moved. GUTHRIE, O. T.. March 25. The Santa Fe tracklayers on the Eastern Oklahoma extension from Newklrk, Okla., to Paul's Valley, I.

Xa Loagrer la Vesve. For many years past the usual treat ment for catarrh diseases was with local douches, "sprays. Inhalers and liquid medicines composed principally of alcohol, all of which never cured but simply give the temporary relief and stimulation. A thorough cure can be made only by the treatment which removes the, catarrhal poisons from the blood. A new remedy, which meets the require ments and which so far has been remark ably successful In curing catarrh is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. These tablets act upon the blood and mucous membrane only. They can hardly be classed as a secret patent medicine as they are composed of such valuable remedies as blood root, Hydrastln, red gum of Eucalyptus tree and similar antiseptics combined In tab let form, which cure by. eliminating from the blood and mucous membrane the pois ons of catarrh. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large, pleasant-tasting lozenges to be taken In ternally, allowing them to dissolve in the mouth, thus reaching the throat, trachea and finally the stomach. If desired they may also be dissolved in water and used as a douche. In addi tion to the internal use, but It Is not at all necessary to use a douche: a few of them dissolved In the mouth dally will be sufficient. However, when there Is much stoppage of the nose a douche made from these tablets will give im mediate relief, but the regular dally use internally will cure the whole catarrhal trouble without resorting to the incon venience of a douche. Dr. Bennett stated "that the Internal treatment of catarrh by means of pleas ant medicated tablets Is rapidly taking the place of douches and local applica tions" and further says that "probably the best and certainly the safest remedy at present on the market Is the Stuart's Ca tarrh Tablets, as no secret Is made of their composition and all the really effi cient catarrh remedies are concentrated in this tablet." Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at 50 cents for full-sized package, and he will tell you there Is no safer, more palatable, efficient and convenient catarrh cure known to the trade.
