THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1907. Phases of Industrial Growth in the Pacific Northwest CURE, NOT TALK, IS WHAT YOU WANT You Must Come to Us Sooner or Later, Why Not Now? MOTHS KEEP AWAY During my professional career I have treated and cured more MSN than any other single physician in America, hence it is only reasonable that I can and will cure yott just as surely as you come to me. I never accept a single case in which I do not feel and know that I can effect a snre cure, so yon run no chances of spending yonr time without results. The volume of my practice has reached a proportion so ereat that it has caused me to place such facilities at riy command that it is as easy for me to see 200 patients a day as it would he 50 callers. I have sep arate parlors, so that everything is strictly private, and if you feel fearful of meeting some one that you know, you can dispel the idea, for all business is carried on with the utmost privacy. Lighted Traps Do Not Attract Insect Pest. THEORY IS NOT NEW IDEA 1 If wf 0 , . , ' i 5 IB!! '.aft. 1 4 ; 1 B v ' r ! 'm'Ty vd ffV r-- --, f? Professor Cordley Advises Adher ence to Old Methods of Destroy ing Codling Moth Until Inven tions Prove More Effective. 6ALEM. Or., Dec 8. (Special.) That codling moth traps operated with a light to attract the moths, are not a success, le asserted by Professor A. B. Cordley, zoologist at the Oregon Agricultural College. A few days ago a resident of Port land announced through the tress that he had discovered a means of exter minating the moths. His device was a sack saturated In sweet cider and hung in an orchard at night with a lighted lantern five or six feet away. He said that if the trap should be thus set, in the morning the sack would contain all the moths in the neighbor hood. When thle scheme was called to the attention of Professor Cordley and his opinion of it requested he re plied: Invention Falls to Work. 1 Thera is nothing new about this theory for controlling the codling moth. It Is an old Idea which periodically crops out, and Indeed from tlma to time various contrivance! Illustrating the same idea have been placed upon the market and have met with a ready rale. The difficulty, however, with the whole theory Is that the codling moth Is not at all attracted by light. I have myself operated an electric trap ' lantern, for the purposes of collecting night-flying Insects, for a number of years, and while I have caught thousands upon thousands of speci mens of other epecles of moth and other Insects; I have, during all that time, taken but two specimens of codling moth. The fact that the codling moth Is not attracted to light has been known to entomologists for many years. There are at present but two methods in common use for the extermination of codling moth. One is the arsenate spray, applied after fruit has formed and at frequent intervals during the Summer. The other is the use of bur lap bandages around the trunks of the apple trees a few inches above the ground. The worms crawl under the burlap to get away from the light, and are killed by men who go through the orchard occasionally, take oft the band ages and replace them. In the best kept orchards both methods are In use. XEW JVTK MILL ABOUT READY Addition to Washington State Peni tentiary Well Under Way. WALLA WALLA. Wash., Dec. 8. (Special.) Warden Tteed, of the Wash ington State Penitentiary, today an nounced that work will belnaugurated tomorrow on the new Jute mill, for which an appropriation was provided by the last Legislature. The new building will be located on the hill back of the prison proper, and will be large enough to accommodate twice the amount of machinery In the present mill. The. additional machinery has been ordered from o. firm in Dundee, Scotland, and is now on the way to Walla Walla. When completed, the present wall surrounding the prison will be extended to include the new mill, and with the installation of the new machinery, the output of grain sacks will be doubled. WALLA WALLA VALLEY OUTPUT Ninety Loaded Cars of Products Shipped In November. FREEWATER, Or!, Dec 8. (Special.) The month of November was a record breaker on the Walla Walla Valley Trac tion. Company's line. They hauled out of this city over 90 cars loaded with hay, apples and canned fruit. These cars were all for points on the Northern Pacific Railway. The apples crop has been excellent this year and every apple of any account has hoen marketed. The second-class apples having been disposed of to the Freewater cannery. The total value of the fruit crop in this vicinity is estimated at $600,000. STRANGE STORY OF A HOODOOED LAWSUIT Many Fatalities Have Attended Prosecution of Case of Carie M Elwert vs. P. H. Marlays et al. A HOODOOED suit! Ghost-ridden j litigation! Is such a thing possible? This is the question which is being asked at the County Courthouse regard ing the theory of its existence. Whether the facts prove that it does exist will be left to the reader to determine. A case which very nearly approaches sui-h a condition of affairs was filed in the State Circuit Court on October 26, 1!HX. and has been dragging on for more than two years. The suit referred to is that of Carrie M. Elwert against P. H. Marlay, H. E. Noble and J. Olsen, to quiet the title to waterfront property along the WHlamette River near East Washington street. The plaintiff asks that an injunction be is sued restraining the defendants from mooring scows or other obstructions In the river in front of the property claimed by the plaintiff, and for a decision of the court declaring that they have no right of ownership to It. It was the plan of the plaintiff to erect a wharf on the prop erty. On October 4. 1906, a few days prior to the filing of a suit, Ueorge Usherwood, a Janitor employed at the Courthouse, committed suicide by taking gas In the Jury room on the third floor of the build. Ing. This room was used more, perhaps, by the Juries of Judge Sears' department, known as No. 2, than by the. jurors of any of the other courtrooms. When the fellow workmen of the Janitor entered the room on this particular morning they found him lying In bed, with his head covered and the gas escaping from the end of a tube which had been connected with the gas jet and placed beneath the covers. Since that time strange noises about the building and strange ghostly sights have been of almost nightly occurrence. The night watchman tells of hearing door , - T - . E LOGGED-OFF TRACTS BEING CULTIVATED IN TURN. Chehalls County, Washington, Is Transformed Into Truck Gar dens and Orchards. ELM A, Wash., Dec. 8. (Special.) Business conditions in Elma, while af fected by the general shutdown of mills and logging camps to some extent, is still good, and the merchants report that trade is better than expected. There has been considerable building done during the year in the way of resi dences, and there are many houses now in course- of construction. For several months past there has not been a vacant house in Elma, and the same condition still exists. Inquiries for farm land have been quite numerous, especially for small farms. This is true also of Inquiries for small tracts of from two to ten acres for gardening and fruit raising. There are a number engaged in rais ing garden truck and small fruit around Elma and all have been very successful. It has been proven that there is no bet ter land and -climatic conditions to be found anywhere for the production of all kinds of berries, as well as apples, pears, cherries, plums ' and prunes than at Elma. Celery does remarkably well and those that have been raising It find a ready market for all their product, some of it going to Portland, and to the cities on the Sound and Grays Harbor. The supply of celery does not come near filling the demand for it, and as there is a great deal of land around Elma suit able for raising it, this will In time be a great celery-producing section of the state. It is estimated that the timber supply of Chehalls County will last for at least 25 years to come. But. with the passing of .the lumber industry other sources of employment are being opened up. The logged-oft lands are being made into pro ductive farms; the mineral resources of the county have never been carefully in vestigated, and will some day prove very extensive. This is especially true of the coal deposits, of which there are known to be many, but with the developing of which nothing has been done. Chehalls County has no indebtedness of any kind, and is in fine financial con dition. The County Commissioners re alize the Importance of good roads and have been doing everything possible to make new roads and Improve those al ready laid out. Extensive Improvements have been made during the year on the roads leading into Elma. The County Surveyor is now at work surveying on the road leading from Elma to Oakville, which is about to be straightened up and widened to 60 feet. This will be the finishing up of the last link of the road running down the Chehalls Valley, making it one of the best roads as well as the most traveled In the county. It is the- great highway from the Sound to the Harbor and travel by automobile and teams is very heavy over it. This road Is level through the entire length of the county, a distance of 40 miles, and running at times through the tall tim ber, makes it a very picturesque road. EXPERTS FORM ORCHARD FIRM Will Plant Forty Acres In Various Varieties Near Brownsville. BROWNSVILLE. Or., Dec- 8. (Spe cial. Charles Holloway, a prominent slam at 2 o'clock In the morning, as If a gale were blowing in at an open window, and upon Investigating of findlngall the windows closed and locked, and all the doors locked both downstairs and up, except the swinging doors of the courtrooms. At another time, at dead of night, he will hear a door rattle loudly, as though someone was seeking admittance at the Fourth-street entrance, and upon calling out "All right," and go ing to the door, will find nothing but the sputtering street lights, and the night wind sighing through the trees on the Courthouse Ipjvn. The janitors who knew the suicide de clare positively that they have seen the ghost of ' Usherwood In the upper Jury chamber, and have heard voices and rushing noises in that part of the build ing when no one was near. They be lieve that the peculiar rushing sound is caused by one ghost running hotfoot after another, and that ghost No. 1 escaped from a man who drowned himself several years ago in the Willamette River near the contested property. Another theory advanced by some is that the ghost of an attorney Is endeavoring to rid the building of those spirits which might in fluence the minds of the Judgo.or Jury to ward a decision adverse to the plaintiff. The ghost is not the only strange sight to be seen about the Courthouse building at night. It is said 'that In the south hallway a flickering light Is to be seen playing upon the floor, at certain times of night, when all gas Jets In the building have been extinguished. Those who have seen it declare that It resembles the glim mering lantern with a barn, which is sometimes seen through the cracks in passing along a country road at night. Since the ghost was fn in the upper room by two Janitors In succession they have a superstitious fear of going to the jury chamber after nightfall. . In this they are not alone, for a re - V- FIVE-TOJT LOAD OF WHEAT, SALEM, fruitgrower of this place, and C. C. Cate, an expert horticulturist, of Cor vallls, and a graduate of the State Agricultural College, have formed a partnership for the purpose of engaging in the fruitgrowing business in this locality on an extensive scale. They have purchased a fine 40-acre tract a few miles east of Brownsville, which Is now being placed in condition to plant to fruit trees. The entire 40 acres will be set to apple, pear, cherry, peach and walnut trees. Mr. Holloway is also Interested with his brother, Edward Holloway, manager of the Brownsville Canning & Preserving Company, in a big orchard just south of the city. Thousands of fruit trees will be planted in this section this Fall and next Spring. FRUIT ACREAGE INCREASING Palouse Country Has Big Yield From Orchards. GARFIELD, Wash., Dec. 8. (Special.) "This has been a great year for the frultmen of the Palouse country." said John Berkstreeser, yesterday, "and they have made good money. The result is that thousands of fruit tree orders are going into the nurseries of Oregon, Washington and Idaho. From one acre of peaches I sold this season $447 worth of splendid fruit, and my cherry trees paid me at the rate of from $250 to $300 an acre." Mr. Berkstreeser is the pioneer fruit raiser of EJberton, and has made a suc cess at the business. He Is at present setting out Bing, Lambert and Centen nial cherry trees, as he thinks they are about the best producers for the Palouse country. The local fruit dryer has made a splen did run thlB season, and many of the Italian prunegrowers netted $75 an acre from their fruit this year. The evap orating company, paid the prunegrowers $12 a (on for their fruit this season. RAIN STARTS TJP MINING WORK Josephine County Farmers Also Re port Prosperous Times. GRANTS PASS, Or., Dec. 8. (Special.) A severe storm has visited this section accompanied with a steady downpour of rain which lasted two days and if It con tinues another day there will have been sufficient rain to start the placer miners at work. A few of the mines are already being operated on half time on the reser voir system. Most all the Fall crops have been gathered. Considerable Fall plowing and sowing has been done in the farming communities. The rural inhabitants all seem to be happy and prosperous and have money in banks. The The country stores In the outlying districts are stock ing up for the holiday trade. The farmers and miners in the northern and southern part of the county are coming in and taking out large loads of goods for the Winter and are doing their holiday shopping. Gold In Chicken's Crop. FREEWATER, Or., Dec. 8. (Special.) Mrs. Louis Johnson two years ago heard of a woman finding gold nuggets in a chicken's crop. Ever since Mrs. John son has been hunting for gold In every chicken she has killed, and last Wednes day her perseverance .was rewarded. She was dressing chickens for Thanksgiving dinner and found a piece of gold the size of a pea in the gizzard of one. Mrs. John son is much elated over her find. Mr. Johnson has been hauling sand from the Walla Walla .river a few miles below Milton for his chickens to scratch In, and that is how the gold is accounted for. cent Jury, which was trying a case short ly before the holidays, refused, it is said, to sleep over night in the beds provided for them in this upper room by the cit izens of the county, .and dozlngly couched Instead in the armchairs of department No. 1. A significant fact in connection with the ghostly case is that all parties who In any way connect themselves with its prosecution are suddenly taken off. The complaint was filed by Attorney U. S. G. Marquam, and came first before Judge Frazer on a motion of demurrer. On May 29, 1906, it came 'before Judge Cleland. and on April 19, 1907 the late Judge Sears issued an order compelling Olsen, one of the defendants, to appear in court. Attorneys R. W. Montague and George S. Shepherd have appeared in the case in behalf of the defendants. Soon after the death of the janitor, At torney U. S. G. Marquam passed away. The case was then placed in the hands of O. F. Paxton, as prosecuting attorney. He did but little with It before being also taken off quite suddenly. His suc cessor, E. B. Seabrook, is now prosecut ing the case. Following this came the sudden death of Judge Sears, and only a few months have elapsed, and the entire county is bemoaning the death of Judge Frazer. John Hill, bailiff of Department No. 2, since Judge Sears' election to the benchj has also suddenly lost his wife, all the efforts of the physician to save her being in vain. Progress upon the suit was stopped when the holidays commenced, and what disposition will be made of It after they are over, a week from Monday, cannot be prophesied. Stayton Elections. STAYTON. Or..

Southern Oregon Electric Line Ex tension to Rogue River Valley Arouses Enthusiasm. GRANTS PASS, Or., Dec. 8. (Special.) The announcement through the press that Moffatt & White are about to extend the Oregon Electric line through Rogue River Valley has been received here with the greatest satisfaction. It has been the dream of the citizens that some day an other transportation company, would find Its way Into the valley. The annulling of trains 11 and 13 by the Southern Pacific Company has aroused the people to greater activity and to stand ready to offer an Inducement to a competing line. The resources from the mills and mines and the products of the fieid have been carried for years by one railroad company, with charges running up Into thousands of dollars. The growing fruit Industry, calling for special trains, has added much to the wealth of the railroad company. The number of acres that are annually being set out in fruit will gradually grow to be an enviable amount of freight for some new enterprise that shall enter the field. An instance of freight rates charged by the Southern Pacific Company may be cited. A box of books shipped from Chi cago with point of destination at Grants Pass cost $12.90. The Intermediate charges from Portland to Grants Pass being $4.60, a fraction over half the amount of the entire freight to be paid from Chi cago to Portland. Complaints are made that this section of Oregon feels the monetary tentacles of a large corporation embracing it from all sides. SURPRISED AT OUTSIDE NEWS Residents of Harney County Felt No . Effect of Stringency. BURNS, Or., Dec. 8 (Special.) No vember was a month of ideal Fall weather In Harney.- There were two flurries of snow, on November 16 and 23. but they were followed by pleasant sunshine and the snow disappeared in a few days. There has been a great deal of Fall plowing done and the amount of Winter wheat sown this year is double that of any year in the history of the country. Conditions In general are very good. Crops yielded generously and there has been a good price for everything. Cattle and sheep are in the best condition and there has been a heavy demand for them at strong prices, one sheepbuyer from Lakevlew alone leaving between $50,000 and $60,000 in this county the pres ent FalL A great many horses also have been scattered among the ranchers of Harney County, so that prosperity Is general and had there been no news papers to bring in the news of the finan cial disturbance nobody here would have known a thing about It. The late Fall has brought a great many more homeseekers than was ex pected at this time and many who made entries last Spring have come to take possession and make Improvements, so that the population of the county has increased heavily of late and in fact during the entire year. in the history of the town was cast, 161 votes. There was a complete ticket elected with the exception of two coun cilmen. R. L. Wlmer and Dr. C. H. Brewer, who hold over for another year. The following officers were elected: May. or, W. L.

That the salvation of the worklngman lies In union and not In dividual effort was the opinion expressed by P. McDon ald at the People's Forum, in the Mulkey block, last night, when the question of the "Open Shop" was discussed. H. W. Drew and Mrs. Millie R. Trumbull also expressed themselves as favoring the views of the unionist. Mr. Drew offered several illustrations of the value of the labor organization, not only to its mem bers but to society generally. E. S. J. McAllister spoke In opposition to the union Idea, declaring his belief that the day of the trade union Is pass ing; that as a remedy for oppression by the employer it has always been a failure, because its only remedy, the only means of enforcing its demands, is the strike, and the strike In the majority of cases has been found a failure. He urged that the laboring men should find a solution for the problem and then work to secure its enactment into law. "We must have complete organization." said Mr. McDonald, speaking from the union labor standpoint. "It is utterly im possible to carry out any project, any enterprise, without unity on the part of those who make up the movement. Or ganized labor has recognized that fact more than any other body of our society, knowing that unity of action is the vital thing." Tomorrow.

STRUGGLES ERE MURDERED SPOKANE MOTORMAX FOXJXD DEAD IX ROOM. Room Torn Topsy Turvy and Police Think He Is Assailed by One or More Burglars. SPOKANE. Wash., Dec. 8. Perry Schultz, aged about 45 years, a Spokane Traction Company motorman, was shot and killed in a desperate encounter with a burglar or burglars, the police believe, in his room. Schultz lived on the seconi floor of a Main avenue hotel. The murder was committed about 3 o clock this morn ing. Following a thorough probing of the mystery by the entire detective force, the police placed under arrest, on sus picion, Curtis A. Hawkenberry, 22 years old, and an ex-convict, and Joe Gregg, 25 years, a bartender, who occupied the room adjoining that of the dead man. The first intimation the police had of the tragedy was when the night clerk of the hotel telephoned to the station that a man had been found dead there. The motorman's dead body, clad only in night robes, was lying on the floor with the head nearest the door, and the light full on. About the room were evidences of a fierce struggle. Every thing was turned topsy turvy. AGAIXST STATE UNIVERSITY Linn County Granges .Working to Defeat Appropriation. ALBANY, Or"., Dec. 8. (Special.) The Linn County council. Patrons of Hus bandry, in a meeting at Tangent yester day afternoon, began action to interest voters of the state in the effort to disap prove tho University of Oregon appro priation, which will be voted on in the next state election by virtue of referen dum petitions circulated by the grange. A committee consisting of Eugene Palmer and Cyrus H. Walker was named to look after the securing of a suitable title for the bill on the ballot and to formulate plans for interesting voters of the state in the movement. A resolution was passed, reciting Gov ernor Chamberlain's veto of the bill when it passed the Legislature, the fact that it ultimately passed over the Governor's veto and resolving that "we urgently re quest the legal voters of the state to vote against eaid appropriation through our referendum against the University of Oregon appropriation to be placed upon the ballot for the general election to be held in June, IMS. this virtually sustain ing the above veto of the Governor." In addition to action on this matter, the council passed a resolution favoring postal savings banks and authorizing the secretary to send a copy of this resolu tion to Oregon's delegation in Congress. Saturday's meeting of the councjl was additionally interesting from the fact that the day was the 69th birthday of Cyrus H. Walker, Oregon's oldest native son, who is a leading spirit in the council.
