14 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1906. ITER SUPPLY DANGER Mt. Hood Power Company Files on Rights on Bull Run, but City Is Protected. ENTIRE FLOW RESERVED C. W. Miller, Secretary for Company- Making the Filing, Says That City's Water System Will Not Be Interfered With. No fear is felt by the city authorities that the filing of. the Mount Hood Rail way & Power Company on water rights on the Bull Run above the Intake of the Portland water system will have any ef fect on the city's supply. It is the belief of members ot the water board that any such filing- is in direct violation of the act passed at the last session of the Legislature providing against just such contingencies. The Mount Hood Company made a filing, through lta secretary, C. W. Miller, a ' Portland attorney, on 20,000 miner's Inches or 30,000 cubic feet a minute at a point three miles above the intake point of the Portland water system. A notice : was posted by Mr. Miller on the ground, which is in Clackamas County. The entire flow of the Bull Run River during extreme low water is said to be but 70,000,000 gallons during the day. The filing by the Mount Hood Company would appropriate 324,000,000 gallons a day or far more than the entire flow of the river at its lower stages. This, on the face of it. Is alarming but C. W. Miller de clares it is the intention of the com pany to use only a portion of the surplus flow of the stream at such times as freshets and land slides or washouts render flumes from other streams useless. It is the belief of city officials that the filing of the Mount Hood Company is Illegal In that it is contrary to an act passed by the last session of the Legis lature which guards against any filing being made upon the Bull Run River and reserving the entire flow for the Port land city system. It was under this law that the project of Lafe Pence, who filed water rights on the same stream, was knocked higher than G-ilroy's kite last year. The act was passed on account of the encroachments of Mr. Pence and It carried such weight that Mr. Pence immediately withdrew his claims to Bull Run's sparkling flow. Point or Prior Filings Raised. A. fine point is raised in the matter be cause of prior filings made toy Mr. Miller on the Bull Run some time ago before the law was passed but it Is said by members of the city water board that as the water was not used, the filings lapsed. Mayor Lane, ex-officio chairman of the water board, says he does not feel the slightest uneasiness because of the claim of the Mount Hood Company to rights on the Bull Run. "I do not think there is any danger of the water being taken,-" said he. "I am satisfied that the act passed by the last Legislature safeguards the flow of Bull Run to such an extent that we need not worry in the least over the result." City's Klglits Protected. "The Mount Hood Company may file on the Bull Run but I do not believe It will do any good," said Dr. C. H. Raffety of the water board. "The act passed by the last Legislature, appropriating all the water of the Bull Run for the use of the Portland city system, will, in my opinion, safeguard the Interests of this city on the water question. If the acts of the Legislature are any good, and they should be, our rights there should be fully protected but of course attorneys must decide on that point." Dr. S. E. Josephi of the water board agreesfully with Dr. Raffety. "I do not see how the filing by the Mount Hood Company can lnterefere with the city water supply in any way," said he, "as the bill passed at the last session was carefully drawn with the view of pre-x-piiting anyone taking water from the Bull Run River lest it Interfere with the Portland water system. Anothqr reason why I think the Mount, Hood Company will fail Is because its recent filing was made within the Oovernment reserve. I have no fears in the matter whatever al though an attorney should of course be consulted." "The only object in placing our Com pany on the grill has fceen ' to make a newspaper . en.satlon," declared C. W. Miller, secretary of ' the Mount Hood Hallway & Power Company, last night, "the story' is an old one, though, for wa have filed water rights on the Bull Run as long- ago as four years. "The object in making ' the filing is to supplement the . water . . supply already filed upon in the-Little and Main Sandy Rivers with a canal leading to our reser voir from the Bull Run. The plan Is to use the water only "when trouble with the other flumes puts them out of commis sion. This would only be In the Winter when freshets and slides occur and when the Bull Run Is bringing down ten times more water than the city of Portland can use. Four canals will lead to our reser voir situated near the Bull Run post office1. Two of these will get water from .the Sandy River at different points and the third will take water from the Little Sandy. The fourth will tap the Bull Run. No Trouble, Says Miller. "We will not have any trouble with the city water authorities on this matter for there Is no occasion for any. Although I have, not taken the city Into my con fidence in making the filing, it Is the pur pose . of our company to use the surplus that will be wasted otherwise. We have ample water rights on the Sandy and Little Sandy to turn out S0,000-horse power-at our generating plant, where wa will have a 670-feet head. "During low water, we have a bigger supply than we can use. The Bull Run water will be in reserve so that It will be available when sllds or washouts damage our flumes leading to the two Bandy Rivers. It is true our filing notice calls for more water than there is in the Bull Run River at the Summer season but this method of filing is customary. It does not mean that we will absorb the flow of the river for our purposes, far from it. It moans that when the river Is high and there is a big surplus of water, we will be privileged to take as much of the surplus as we may need in case of accident to our other flumes." RAISE SALARY OF JUDGES Bar Association Will Ask Legislature to Increase Stipend to $4000. The Legislative committee of the Ore fron Bar Association met yesterday to consider the form and substance of bills recommended to the committee'by the Bar Association for presentation to the Legislature. Judge Webster is chairman of the Legislative committee. The bill of most general interest tak en up by the committee was that in creasing the salary of Circuit Judges from 30po to $4000 annually. The bill also proposes to change the method of payment from quarterly, as at pres ent, to monthly. Circuit Judges out side of Multnomah County receive less salary than those who preside at the local Circuit Courts, who are now paid $4000 annually. Another bill of some general Interest is that giving Circuit Judges concur rent Jurisdiction in cases of forcible en try and detainer. The remaining meas ures under consderation relate to the various means of perfecting title to real property and to recording of prop erty. The committee will meet again one week frohi yesterday. CHRISTMAS CHAUTAUQUA Rev. G. Li. Tufts Attends Conference Held at Pittsburg. PITTSBURG, Pa., Dec. 22. (To the Editor.) Probably the first Christmas Chautauqua ever held has just closed Its eight-day session at Pittsburg, Pa. It waa under the auspices of the International Reform Bureau, of which Dr. W". F. Crafts is general superin tendent. The Pacific Coast District, covering the five states of Washing ton, Oregon, California, Nevada and Idaho, was represented by its superin tendent. Dr. Or. L. Tufts of Portland. Four sessions were held each day. Miss Blanche Crafts, leader of violins In Boston Conservatory of Music and Prof. A. M. Thatcher, celebrated basso of Boston, were the chief musical at tractions. Senator E. J. Burkett, of Nebraska, the youngest member of the United States Senate, Dr. T. A. Green and Dr. W. F. Crafts were three star bpeakers from regular Chautauqua platforms. Dr. G L. Tufts discussed the question of "Prison Reform." The International Reform Bureau is opertlng in four fields, local, state, national and international, against the big four evils of Sabbath-breaking, gambling, impurity and intemperance, by the four moans of lectures, letters, literature and legislation. Interna tionally with the assistance of the Senate and President of the United States it is seeking a federation of civilized nations to prohibit the traffic in intoxicants and opium to all aborig inal races. Nationally it is pushing the McCumber-Terrell bill to prevent tlfe sale of intoxicants in all govern ment buildings, ships and parks, and the Llttlefleld-Carmack bill, to prevent other states from shipping liquors Into dry states and territories under the protection .of the interstate com merce law. In the Pacific Coast Dis trict a Sunday rest bill will be intro duced in the Idaho, California and Or egon legislatures, - an antl-gambling bill in Nevada, and local option will be promoted . in co-operation with other organizations in Idaho and Washington. The Reform Bureau is also backing a movement to prevent the Sunday opening of the gates of the Yukon-Alaska Exposition, as it suc cessfully led similar movements to close the gates of the St. Louis Fair and Jamestown Exposition of 1907.

WHEAT IS BADLY NEEDED Weather Conditions and a Slx-Foot Boating Stage . Will Materially Help the AVheat Situation. Three Boats Working. Six feet of water is recorded on the official gauge at Riparia, Idaho, on the Snake River, and the prospects for an open river during the entire season are exceedingly bright. With the present stage of water it will require a long continued cold snap to freeze the river and tie up steamboats. Usually the water is low at this season and steamers- figure on a tieup about the holidays. Wheat is in great demand at this port now and a tieup on the upper river would OPEN THE PRICE OF THE NEW YEAR'S OREGONIAN The New Year's Oregonian that will be published on Tues day morning next will be mailed to any address in the United States, Canada or Mexico for 8 Cents a Copy, Postage Prepaid. seriously handicap the local shippers. Between Cow Creek and Riparia there are'Close to 500,000 sacks of grain. Three boats are in 'service and they are piling onto the. cars at Riparia between 6000 and 6000 sacks daily. The amount brought to . the rail lines will be materially in creased . with the completion of the Rlparia-Lewlston branch as far east as Almota, a distance of H miles. It Is the expectation of officials of the O. R. & N. Company to have this' portion of the line in operation by the middle of January. This will enable the boats to double the amount of grain brought from points above. OREGOX LUMBER CO. IS SUED Damages Asked for Wreck, of the Barge Monarch. An echo of the turning turtle of the barge Monarch, which sent to the bottom of the Willamette River hundreds of tons of coal, a human life and coal-loading apparatus last Summer, waa heard yes terday when suit was filed for damages against the Oregon Round Lumber Com pany, owner of the barge. A suit for libel amounting to $2087.79 was filed In the ' United States Circuit Court by the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company. The complaint alleges that the Oregon Round Lumber Company agreed to coal the 'steamship Arabia, belonging to the libelant, which was lying at the Mont gomery dock in Albina. It is also alleged In the complaint that the Oregon Round Lumber Company stated that the barge Monarch was seaworthy, and this they STEAMER INTELLIGENCE. Dae to Arrive. Name. Prom Date.

The sinking of the barge Monarch oc curred at night, and at the time that it turned turtle a number of workmen were engaged in unloading the coal and they were hurled into the river. At first it was thought that several lives had been lost. All were accounted for but one. and it was supposed that he was burled underneath the coal, since the body has never been recovered. SAILORS LEAVE THE MUSKOKA Make Sensational Accusation Against Captain and Then Desert. Up to the present time nothing has been done in the matter of the com plaint of the sailors of the British bark Muskoka, who charged Captain McDonald with the death of a sailor named Bas sett in the English Channel shortly after the vessel started on her voyage to Port land. Bassett disappeared one night, but the matter was not reported to the cap tain untlt some time after. He Immedi ately put about and cruised in the vicinity for about five hours. The circumstance was duly entered on the official log of the ship. On arrival in Portland Harbor several of the sailors appeared before the British Consul and swore that the sailor had been hounded to his death by the cruel treatment of the officers. As yet United States Attorney Bristol has not been asked to make an investigation of the case. Mariners think it strange that all the men forward should leave the vessel as soon an they had made the complaint against the skipper. At present the Muskoka has not enough men in the forecastle to man a working boat. WANTS TO PAY AN OLD DEBT Woman Gets Religion and Recalls Stealing Towels From Steamer. Captain George Conway, superintendent of water lines for the O. R. & N., is the latest to hear from a would-be contribu tor to the conscience fund. The writer was evidently once a passenger on a vessel of Captain Conway's fleet and she purloined two of the ship's towels. The letter follows: "My Dear Captain: I have been oon- verted to God and am seeking God for the baptism of the Holy Ghost. The Lord gave me the vision of a towel, which caused me to remember that years ago I took two towels when I left one of your steamers, and ' I desire to pay you for them. What are they worth?" The letter gives the woman's name and address and is evidently sent in a spirit of sincerity. Captain Conway will an swer the epistle. SHIP JrCTi,E REACHES PORT Blown Far to the Northward Before Entering the River. The American ship Lucille, Captain Mclnnls, In ballast frotn San Pedro, ar rived up yesterday and docked at the North Pacific Mills. She will load lumber for the Southern California Mclnnis reports that he came up to the bar about ten days ago, and sighting no pilot, put off shore. A heavy gale sprang up and carried him to the Northward. When the wind subsided he was to the west ward of Destruction Island. It re quired some time to beat back to the mouth of the river. The master of the Lucille is well-known In Portland, having been formerly mate of the Re dondo. Columbia Sails for San Francisco. The Portland-San Francisco liner Columbia sailed for San Francisco at 8:05 last night. She carried close to 100 passengers and a full cargo of freight. It is possible that the boat wlll experience some delay In the river on account of the fog. Before the re turn of the Columbia to Portland the steamer Ajstec will have arrived in the river and will assist materially in relieving the freight situation. The Aztec Is a big carrier and her return to this port is due to the fact that the Costa Rica was laid up for repairs. Two Lumber Ships Finish. The American . bark Diamond Head and the British bark Bankburn fin ished loading yesterday, but will not go to the stream until some time to day. Boats were ordered for yester day, but owing to the fact that log rafts blocked the channel it was im possible to get the ships away from the dock. The Diamond Head carries lumber for San Pedro and the Bank burn will go to Negritas, In Chile. Captain Suiter Dead in Australia. Captain Moore, of the British bark Bankburn, Is in receipt of a letter an nouncing the death In Port Plrie, of Captain Suiter, -of the ship Bardowie. Captain Moore was an old-time friend of the dead skipper. The Bardowie sailed from Portland last August with a cargo qf lumber for the Australian Dort. Marine Notes. The German ship Marie Hackfeld shifted to the Irving dock yesterday, and will finish during the week. The British bark Oweenee is taking on lumber at the Linnton Mills. She will clear for Valparaiso. The steamer P. A. Kilburn is due to arrive this evening from San Francis co. She will sail for the South Mon day evening. The Kilburn waa de layed on the up trip by minor repairs at the Bay City. The Norwegian steamship Christian Michaelson has completed the lumber portion of her cargo and will load flour at the Oceanic dock. Arrivals and Departures. ASTORIA, Dec. 27.

O'Connor, a Portland boy, who has been located at Redmond, Crook County, Or., during the past three years, has perfected an inven tion for centering headings on state ments written on the typewriter. The new instrument Is designed to save the stenographer much time and an noyance in arranging the spaces on the machine in order to place the head ing in the exact center of the paper. The Invention of Mr. O'Connor Is simi lar to a drawing compass and has at tachments which render the spacing easy of arrangement. Since securing his patent on the de vice, the inventor has received numer ous offers for It. He is now planning to have the Invention manufactured in Portland. Mr. O'Connor is connected with a large land promoting company in Crook County, which is engaged in extensive irrigation projects. He is in Portland spending the holidays with his relatives. Seamen's Institute Dinner. Men who go down to the sea in ships can eat roast turkey and mince pie just as well as shore lubbers, as was proven Wednesday night at the Christmas din ner given at the Seamen's Institute.

Patterson Will Make His Home in San Francisco. i TERM OF OFFICE EXPIRES Business of Port Has Doubled in Eight and a Half Years Since He Became Collector of Customs. I. L. Patterson. Collector of Customs, whose term of office will expire December 31, will leave this evening for San Fran cisco, where he will engage in the gen eral brokerage business In connection with Charles D. Willits. The latter was formerly engaged In the same line of business In Portland, but moved to San Francisco about four years ago. He is an old-time friend of the retiring Col lector. Mr. Patterson was appointed to the office of Collector for this district early in the Spring of 1898. He has held the office continuously since then and has made a showing .that is most satisfactory to himself and the department. On the recent visit of Assistant Secretary Rey nolds the office was found to be In such excellent shape that the latter wrote a personal letter ' to Mr. Patterson com plimenting him on the results of his official career. A detailed statement of business of the Custom-House during the period of In cumbency of Mr. Patterson follows; For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1893: Im ports. $1, 444,452; number of entries, 1530; to tal receipts. 376.927.11; total cost of collec tion. J62.309.98; cost of collecting II. leij cents; number of employes. 44. For the fiscal sear ending June 30, 1906: Imports. $2,741,041; number of entries, 8488; total receipts, $738,235.04; total cost of col lection, $55,927.83; cost of collecting $1, 744 cents. ' - Increase In Imports, $1,296,589. Increase in number of entries, 1958. Increase In receipts. $361,308.83. Decrease In annual expense of office, $6382.18. Decrease in cost of collection, 544 per cent. Decrease In number of employes, 6. The collections at the Lewis & Clark Fair were made during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906, and amounted to $34,369.70; the cost of collecting $1 was 24 cents, which Is less than the cost of collecting at any fair that has been held In the United States. The cost of collecting in the Puget Sound district for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906, waa 12 4-10 cents, or about 6 cents on the dollar more than at thlat port. This statement shows that, while the business of the office has doubled during the past eight years, the expense of oper ating has decreased. Less men are em ployed and the cost of collecting has been reduced more than one-half. Start on Grange Hall. Work has been started on the founda tion for the hall for the Milwaukie Grange, on the lot recently purchased from Richard Scott. M. Nye, T. R. A. Sellwood and Richard Scott, the building committee, were given power to go ahead with the work and have lost no time In getting it started. The building will be 86x66 feet and two stories in height. It will cost, when completed, between $1600 and $1600. The hall will be central and near the electric railway. Undrbem Bitter.

IT ISN'T THE 8EGAR IT'S THE STOMACH Every smoker has experienced this pe culiar condition of the stomach and liver, the result usually of imperfect digestion of food. And the blame Is usually put on the cigar and not where It belongs. Such men are usually high livers, hard workers mentally, living under high pres sure and high draught, and it doesn't take a great deal to disorder the atom ach or render the liver torpid. They should make it a practice to use some tried and reliable remedy like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets that will aid Nature and not force It and will take care of the sudden attacks of acute in digestion. The use of these tablets Is not to be confounded with the patent medicine habit. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a patent medicine, but are composed of the very elements which nature pro vides the healthy stomach to do the work of digestion pepsin, diastase, golden seal etc. There is no secret in their prepara tion they are absolutely pure and there fore all the world uses them. No matter how disordered the stomach may be, it will right itself if given the chance. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets di gest food where the stomach can't, give the abused stomach and Intestines a rest, and offer renewed strength to the worn out glands and muscles.
