THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 19Q7. 1G HAWLEY RETURNS FROM " THE EAST ble company are supporting Mr. Hanford this aeason. Oregon Congressman - Elect Learned Ropes Thoroughly in Washington. TWO WEEKS IN THE HOUSE "Leah Kleshna" for Easter Week, i The Baker Theater Stock Company always provides pleasant surprises for its patrons, and in announcing: that it will give the celebrated problem play "Lean Kleshna" for Easter week the public will be enabled to anticipate a decided treat. Mrs. Flske with an ail-star cast gave this play In Portland two years a0 and it proved an artistic success. MUSF OBEYTHE LAW Empire Will Present "Ole Olson." "Ole Oleson," the most popular Swedish dialect play ever presented on any stage, will come to the Empire Theater for Easter week, opening In that playhouse Sunday afternoon Easter Day. There is mirth, laughter and song intermingled with the more serious sentiment of this play. Occuytfil Seat on Iloor and Aided Members In Deliberations Be lieves Railroad Land Mo nopoly Can Be Curbed. Initiated Into the working methods of the Nation's lawmakers. Representative W. C. Hawley returned from "Washington yesterday, spent the day In Portland and then went to his Salem home. Mr. Haw ley was In the National capital nearly a month, and though he will not take the oath and his seat until the meeting ot the 60th Congress, next December, or sooner If there should be a special ses sion, ha eat In the House of Representa tives about two weeks, viewing Its work, but not participating in It. Having thus acquainted himself with his duties, he will now visit the people of the First District to learn their wants and needs and to pave the way for his re election next year. As he will be in Con cress next Spring during the campaign for nomination, and perhaps for election, he will not be able to participate in those campaigns, and If he is to do any work In that direction, he must devote himself to it between now and the December meeting of Congress. Senator Fulton is preparing to do the same thing, since he will come up for election as the people's choice for United States Senator, at the same time as Hawley. Knows the Ropes Now. Representative Hawley believes that he has learned the ropes in Washington in a manner that will enable him to render good service to his district. His hope of receiving important committee places, he says, received strong encouragement from the treatment he received irom men 01 influence. While In the House, Mr. Hawley sat in- the seat of Rhodes, of Missouri, be tween Gardner, of Massachusetts, and Jones, of Washington. In the passage of the bill raising the compensation of postal employes, he offered suggestions which were put into the measure and which raised the salaries of underpaid employes. Mindful of his promise that he would endeavor to secure legislation to hold railroad companies to the terms of land grants, which Congress made in l66-70 to the Oregon & California and the Ore gon Central railroads, on condition that they should dispose of the lands only to actual settlers, in tracts of not more than 160 acres to each purchaser and at not more than J2-50 an acre, Mr. Hawley laid the matter before President Roosevelt, Secretary of the Interior Garfield, Com missioner of the Land Office Ballinger and Attorney-General Bonaparte, all of whom promised to give it their early at tention. Land Monopoly Obstinate. For some three years, the Southern Pa cific, holding the lands, has refused to sell. Prior to that time, large areas were sold In tracts of more than 1ft) acres to a purchaser and at more than $2.50 an acre. The announcement that Congress may be expected to treat rivers and harbors more liberally with appropriations is con firmed by Mr. Hawley. Said he: "Sentiment is strong in Washington that the Government is about to change ils hitherto economical policy as to im-. provement of water courses. The inade quacy of railroad facilities brings to the attention of the country the need of im proved waterways and more of them. "Senator Bourne is making many friends and will become a very valuable Senator for Oregon. He has put on the harness like an old Senator and will undoubtedly accomplish valuable results for Oregon. Senator Fulton is a hard worker and has been rendering faithful service. Repre sentative Ellis, of the Second District, is highly thought of in Washington. He is regarded as a man of standing and stability." "Carmen" at Popular Prices. Next week, beginning Monday matinee, the Lyric will present a magnificent produc tion of "Carmen" at popular prices with an enlarged company, beautiful scenery and ef fects and stunning costumes. Seats now selling. "Winchester" Next Week. There are no better dramas founded on the Civil War than "Winchester." which will be well produced next week at the Star Theater. The play has been In prep aration for soma time and it will he present ed with all the mechanical and light effects necessary to make, it realistic AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS x Magician at the Grand. Magic Is as interesting now as it was in the Bark Ages, only now people know that the feats are performed by tricks. This is what makes the illusion of Albinl, at the Grand, this week, so astonishing. The audi ence understands that the Illusion of "Transparent" is only a trick, but they cannot discover the proper solution. Steamers Forced to Carry Full Life-Saving Equipment. REINSPECTION IS ORDERED Big Comedians at Pantages. Barr and Evans, character comedy come dians, are by long odds the cleverest pair of funmakers seen in the Northwest in many a day. Their act Is one continual round of laughter, - and to miss it is to over-look a hearty laugh. Mickey Freley, the clever comedy acrobat; the Hilton Sisters, novelty musicians; La Tonzl, operatic singer, and several other goad acts complete the pro gramme. . All Steam Vessels in the District of the Willamette Will Be Thorough ly Examined by the Assist ant Inspectors. Every steam vessel operating in the District of the "Willamette must be rein spected within the next few months. Equipment must be up to the Government standard and all requirements of the in spection service met or the certificate of the steamer will be canceled.

Mrs. Jorie Robbing, of 1121 Clar Street, Decatur, Ills,., is enthusiastic) over the merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. "In 1900, be cause of overwork," states Mrs. Rob bins, "I was threatened with nervous prostration, complicated with 1 heart trouble. I consulted my family phys ician who said It was' heart trouble and he gave me thrtee or four different kinds of medioin but I felt no benefit from them. I was very weak, pale, thin and troubled with headaches. Mr appetite failed so that I did not rel ish mj food. I was unable to do my work because my limbs pained me so and my feet were swollen. I got numb and dizzy, my tongue seemed at times to be paralyzed so that I oouldn't speak distinctly. My extrem ities, when in this numb state, felt as tf some one was sticking needles into me all over their surface. Through my shoulders at times I had such pain that I couldn't sleep. Many times I awoke with a sensation of smothering. when the physician's remedies failed to benefit me I began to look for something that would. My sister, Mrs. McDanlel. of Decatur, recom mended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to me and I at once purchased some. I was greatly encouraged when I saw how they acted on my nervous condi tion and continued using them until cured. I am now able to attend to my duties and have not consulted a phys ician since. t also garre them to my daughter who had always been weak and who at this time seemed to lack vitality. Her cheeks were colorless and she was thin and spiritless. She had an aemia and we feared consumption, be cause every time she went out doors If it was at all cold or damp she would take cold and cough. But Dr. Williams' Pink Pills brought color hack to her cheeks and strength to her body." Dr. Williams' Pink PHls are sold by all druggists, or sent postpaid, on re ceipt of pnee, 60 cents per dot, six bores for 92.50, by the Dr. William Medldna Co, Schenectady, N. x. Carrier Dove at Iloqniam. HOQTJIAM, Wash., March 28. (Special.) The schooner Carrier Dove arrived in port today from San Francisco and is lying in the lower harbor. steam vessels he changed at least three times a year and that all excursion and ferry boats he reinspected with each change of assistants. This action was taken in order to insure the proper main tenance of equipment for boats carrying large number of passengers for short trips. OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION HELD Seattle Inspectors Inquire Into the Loss of Steamship Dakota. SEATTLE, March 28. The official in vestigation into the loss of the steam ship Dakota commenced before the TJni- States Marine Inspectors Whitney and Turner this morning. Three officers- trom the wrecked vessel gave testimony, in cluding A. Ashman, first officer. If any one of the three men know the exact reason why the Dakota was steaming a mile and a half off shore when it was customary to keep fully Ave miles away from the dangerous coast line they have not made it known. First Officer Ashman testified that the ship struck about 5 minutes past 6 o'clock on the afternoon of Saturday, March 3. The weather was good, sea calm and the reef where the Dakota hit charted. Insurance companies holding policies on the wrecked Dakota may make a fight against paying the insurance on the ground that the disaster was one which could have been averted, since the dan gers off the Shlrahama coast are known to all mariners operating vessels in Ori ental waters. Captain Francke and the rest of the crew are expected in Seattle in two or three weeks, and the master of the wrecked liner will then rnstke known his excuse for piling the big vessel on the Japanese rocks. It is the general opinion In steamship circles in Seattle that Captain Francke alone is to blame for the wrecking of the Dakota, on the rocks of the Shlrahama coast of Japan. The members of the crew who have recently arrived In the city have little to say further than Captain Francke was on watch at the time. NOW DEMAND RHXTVERS' PAT Coastwise Sailors Are Scarce and Want Single Trips. ' Coastwise lumber carriers are short, of sailors and on a number of the craft now nearlng completion, sailors are demand ing "runners' " wages, 1. e., 45 for one-way trip between Portland" and the Bay City. The regular scale is $45 per month for union men. The shortage in sailors is due to the fact that the Alaska fleet Is about ready to sail for the North and will require large number of men. While the ships are standing by at the canneries there Is comparatively little to do and tars appreciate a craft where there is plenty to eat and little to do. The recent enact ment of the Moore law in California will have a tendency to correct these con ditions. Old EDITH ON THE WATS. Tugboat Is Being Overhauled at Portland Shipyards. The tug Edith, belonging to the North ern Pacific Railroad Company and en gaged on construction work on the 'bridge across the Columbia at Vancouver, is on the ways at the Portland Shipbuilding yards. The Editn 13 undergoing a gen eral overhauling and will receive a new wheel as well as having her machinery placed in order before she is again placed in commission. The Edith was built for M. Meagler, the cannerymen, in 1S77 "and is one of the best preserved boats in Northwestern waters. She was built of the finest oak obtainable and after nearly 30 years of service is in A-l condition. The Edith is commanded by Captain John Winters and her engine-room is in charge of M. Kennedy. Sailor Lost at Sea. ABERDEEN. Wash., March 28. (Spe dal.)

Woman suffrage was the subject dis cussed at the meeting of the People's Forum last night, the presentation of the subject being led by Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway, Oregon's pioneer in the move ment. Mrs. Duniway advanced many arguments in favor of giving the ballot to women, treating the matter from the standpoint of both expediency and justice. She contended that women should have equal rights with men, and in addition should receive protection at the hands of the stronger sex. Mrs. Duniway took a fling e-t the recent Legislature, censuring it for not allowing the suffrage question to go before the people without the formality of circulat ing petitions. This refusal, she said, had -cost the women a large amount of money, and in addition much trouble. "We went before the Legislature," said Mrs. Duniway, "with a reasonable re quest, but we had to sit there meekly as though our hands were tied behind us, The members were clearly against us. Most of the members of the Legisla ture are too old to change their opinions and the rest are too young to have any." After the opening address there was a general discussion of the subject. Nearly all of the speakers favored woman suf frage, which led Mrs. Duniway to com plain because none of the "Antis" were present. "I only wish that some of those Salem legislators, or other opponents of the movement were present to knock the chip off my shoulder," declared Mrs. Duniway. "There is nothing I like better than a friendly row on the Buffraga question." Make Milwaukie Road a Street. The Midway Improvement Association has started a movement to make the Milwaukie road between Holgate street and Nehalem avenue at Sellwood a street, which will take it out of the jurisdiction of the County Court. It is thought that if this road can be made a street there will be a better chance to get it widened and improved. At present there is onlj a narrow space left on the east side ol the Milwaukie road as far south as the point where -the double tracks leave the road. The r-emalnder of the road is oc cupied by the double tracks of the Sell wood electric branch railway. The west side also is obstructed by poles, and the road is under 50 feet wide nearly all the way to Sellwood. It carries a heavy travel from Clackamas County and Sell wood. The Milwaukie highway is a county road from Holgate street to the old city line at Sellwood, and then through Sellwood it again becomes a street. Beyond Sellwood to the Clacka mas County line it again becomes a county road. If it becomes a street the adjacent property will have to improve it Avoid harsh purgative pills.
