V TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 2, 1909. 14 MANN TELLS HOW NEW ROAD GROWS Vice-President of Canadian Northern in Portland for Day. FIRM CONTROLS 500Q MILES JW-sIrii Is to Gather All Lines Into One Big System Tappipsr Klcli Wheat Country Now Branch Within 60 MilC3of Pnluth. T). D. Mann, vice-president of the Cana dian Northern, with a main trunk line between Port Arthur and Edmonton. Canada, besides numerous branch and connecting roads under its control, spent yesterday In Portland, leaving last night for California. From there he will re turn to hie headquarters in Toronto by way of Chicago. Mr. Mann reached tlio city yesterday morning and stopped over a day to see Portland, for he had never before visited this city. He came in a Canadian Northern private car, "Atti besra." from Seattle. Mr. Mann is a member of the big Cana- dlan contracting firm of McKenzle. Mann ft Company, and be to more than vice president of the Canadian Northern, for his firm owns the road outright. The mileage of the Canadian Northern is about 3450. but the total mileago con trolled by the firm is 5X. This has been built up by Mr. Mann and his partner. In 1S36, the firm operated 100 miles of rail way. Each year saw substantial addi tions built to this original unit and exist ing tracks acquired. The system Is now far from complete, for additional track age Is being built all the time. During the present year, according to Mr. Mann, the system will be considerably extended. "Vancouver. B. C, is to be our Pacific terminus." said Mr. Mann yesterday, in telling of his plnns for the development of Canada by his railroad. "I do not know when we will gef there, for we have a lot of work to do. We are build ing now out through the wheat fields. In some places ahead of the demand for a railroad. We have about 3i0 miles of 1ra-k In the three prairie provinces of (British Columbia. Form One Big System. "We expect ultimately to form one or ganization of our present mileage and the other roads now under our control. There are places In our territory now where the farmers haul their wheat by wagons "0 miles to market. But that will not last long, for our rails are being laid through this country all the time. More and more prairie is brought near a mar ket by this means each year. We are not alone in this, for all the Canadian roads are building branches to take care of this wonderful country that is being rapidly developed. ' "We do not now contemplate building anything on this side of the boundary line. What we will do In the future we cannot now tell. I think our company will, bowever, gain control of some road Into Duluth. We have acquired a logging road that brings us within 60 miles of that city, and our sleeping-cars run into Duluth now. Great Future for Portland. "Portland and Seattle are indeed won derful cities, with great futures ahead of them. I am sure. I had never been in either city until this week. when I stopped over one day in each place. Van couver. B. C. too. I feel sure will become a large center because of Its excellent harbor, making it a fine outlet for British Columbia." Mr. Mann met an old friend in Seattle. J. D. Farrell, general manager for the Oregon & Washington, the projected Vnlon Pacillc extension to Puget Sound from Portland. The two railroad men used to work together in the Canadian Pacific oflice at Winnipeg 27 years ago. Since then they have followed different openings in the railroad business, both with great success. The Canadian Northern is expected to extend from Edmonton to the Crows Nest country, to tap the great coal bodies in that district, although Mr. Mann says it Is more probable that the main line of "the road will cross the mountains by the Yellow Head Pass, instead of following the Crows Nest route. rEHFtrXCTORV MEETINGS HELD llarriman Roads In Oregon Tte-elect Officiate and Directors for Year.

That Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific Railway, Is not disposed to lift the bars from the Portland gate way, as requested in a recent petition by Portland business interests, is dis closed in an interview on this subject given at Tacoma by President Elliott. He Is on his way to Portland and may reach this city today or tomorrow. A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent, has gone from Portland to meet Mr. Elliott at Tacoma and accompany l:im to this city. When asked by a Tacoma paper what his company was going to do In the mat ter of lifting the embargo at this city. President Elliott Is quoted as saying: The Northern Pacific Is not maintain ing any embargo at Portland. We are very glad to carry people between Port land and the Bound, in fact, we run many trains daily for that purpose. We have : great faith Is Portland, too. - We would not have built our new line in there, had we not. The Northern Pacific, operates Its own lines to the territory east of Colo rado points and Is ready to carry all the passenger traffic originating in that ter tory. We can pick up a passenger at most any point east of Denver, sell him a through ticket to Puget Sound, get the long haul and the pay for It. "There is no reason why we should make arrangements with some other rail road to bring passengers by way of Port land and give us only the short haul from there to the Sound. It Is a straight busi ness proposition between competing lines."' Concerning the recheck baggage annoy ance here. President Elliott Is quoted as saying: When I go to New York, I have to change at Chicago and recheck my bag gage. I do not think that much of a hardship." LINCOLN TOPIC OF PAPER S. B. Huston Gives Address to Meeting of Ministers. "The Life and Character of Abraham Lincoln" was the subject of a paper read at the regular monthly meeting of the Portland Ministerial Association, in the T. M. C. A. auditorium, yesterday morning, by 8. B. Huston. The speaker said: "We are near enough to Lincoln's time to feel still his personality and to love him. but are too near to give him his true place in history.

Another Interesting fact is found in flour shipments in January, when Port land exceeded the Sound nearly 2000 bar rels, although the Sound for the cereal year to date still maintains the lead In flour shipments. The crop fell greatly below that of the cereal year 1907-8, and from authentic sources It is learned that the present store Is about all handled or provided for. Flour shipments promise but little for the next two months, although the next two Asiatic steamers will take out fairly good-sized cargoes of that commodity. The Portland & Asiatic liner Nicomedia Is expected to be ready February 11, and is now loading a considerable cargo of flour for her coming voyage. The Ori ental market is "shot td pieces." accord ing to latest advices, and no Immediate prospects of an Improvement are ob servable. CAPTAIX PEASE IS HONORED Chosen Vice-President of National Organization at Washington. Captain A. L. 1 ease returned Sunday from his trip to Washington, where he represented Willamette Harbor, of the American Association of Masters, Mates and Pilots. He left Portland January 11, and attended the six-day sessions of the National Harbor, after which he made visits to other Eastern cities. He said yesterday that when he left Portland there was some inches of snow on the ground, but that when on his way home his train passed through a blizzard In Nebraska that caused him to think that a bit of snow In Oregon was a small mat ter compared to a storm that delayed traffic six hours in one night on account of terrific wind. Captain Pease was elected vice-president of the association, his competitors for the office being rep resentatives from San Francisco and Se attle. INSPECTORS HEAR EVIDENCE Witnesses Testify About Collision Between Potter and No Wonder. Hearing of evidence concerning the col lision between the T. J. Potter and No Wonder was heard at the office of In spectors Edwards and Fuller, yesterday. The collision occured January 28, near the mouth of the Columbia and the No Wonder was badly damaged, being Before any sore can heal, the cause which produces it must be removed. As long- as the blood, from which our systems receive their necessary nour ishment and strength, remains impure and contaminated with disease germs, any old sore on the body will remain open, and resist every effort made to heal it The nerves and tissues of the flesh around the places are continu ally fed with unhealthy matter and nature is simply disposing of the poison by draining it from the system through the sore. The only cure for an old sore is a thorough cleansing of the blood, entirely ridding the system of the cause. S. S. S. heals old sores by removing every particle of impurity from the circulation. It goes down to the very bottom of the trouble and so com pletely cleanses the circulation that there is no longer any impurity to draia through the sore, but the place is once more nourished with rich, health ful blood. S. S. S. heals the sore from the bottom, the place soon fills in with healthy, firm flesh, the tenderness leaves, all discharge ceases, the skin regains its natural color and when S. S. S. has thoroughly cleansed and purified the blood the place 13 permanently, healed. Book on Sores and Ulcers and any medical advice free to all who write.

Two French barks, the Thiers and Bufton, previously listed for Portland for wheat, have been diverted to Sydney, N. S. W. The local agents. Charles Far racque & Co., received Instructions to have the vessels proceed from Honolulu to the Australian port for orders. This will reduce the tonnage en route for this port, which Is accounted for by reason of the cleaning up of grain In sight for shipment. Marine Notes. With a good cargo and passenger list the Senator arrived from San Fran cisco last night. After lying at Washington-street during high water, the British ooal barge Quatsino will begin discharging today. The Shoshone left down from St. Helens yesterday afternoon with lum ber from that place and Rainier for San Francisco. Repairs are being made on the No Wonder at the Portland Shipyards. The river boat was badly damaged in collision with the T. J. Potter. Freight arriving on the Rainier was consigned to Portland, Eastern Oregon and Idaho points. After discharging here the vessel will drop down to Pres cott to load lumber for San Francisco. Carrying: freight for Tillamook, the Argo will sail this afternoon. Owing to the requirements of the Custom House authorities, the steamer Is not yet ready to take passengers and prob ably will not be for at least three more trips. Lower docks along the front have again been put into commission after being submerged during the high wa ter. Offices have been- reopened at all the docks, the lowest of which were being washed down yesterday In pre paration for receiving freight. Petitions are in the hands of John McNulty, past commander of Oregon Chapter, Naval Union, to be sent to Congress recommending the passage of an act providing for retirement on three-quarter pay of all petty officers and enlisted men of the Navy after 25 years of actual service. Carrying apparatus and moorings for the upper coast stations, the lighthouse tender Armeria sailed yesteday for Pu get Sound. The Heather is at work at Tongue Point crossing replacing buoys and beacon lights. The marks will be probably In place Inside of ten days. An important addition to the refer ence library of the local Hydrographlc office was received yesterday by John McNulty, naval expert in charge. The book Is issued by the Census Bureau at Washington and contains special re ports on transportation by water oceans, lakes and rivers bordering or Inland in the United States. The river boats America and Iralda have changed docks from Taylor street to Alder street, at which place they will arrive and depart from this date. Alder-street dock has become the ren devous of the mosquito fleet in ad dition to the big boats that dock there. The lone has returned to that dock af the skirmishing around from place to place for some weeks. Some of the passengers arriving on the Northland yesterday complained that a leaky upper deck had damaged their clothing before they had a chance to remove their effects from their stateroom. The captain i3 reported as saying that when it was found the stateroom let in water the passengers should have notified him at once and he would have given the use of his own cabin for the time being.

ANNOUNCE DECISION LATER Preacher Says Slattei" of Salary Does Not Enter, Question Being AVhich Church Offers Better Field for His L-abors. Rev. A. J. Montgomery, pastor of the Third Presbyterian Church, received a telegram at 6 o'clock last night, saying that the Second Presbyterian Church of Oak Park, 111., has extended to him a unanimous call to take the pastorate there. The salary offered is J1SO0. Mr. Montgomery recel.es $1600 from his pres ent charge. Mr. Montgomery said last night that he will reserve his decision In the matter until some time later this week. He will announce it at a meeting of his church, perhaps at the prayer meeting next Thursday night. He said, however, that the question of salary does not enter into his motive, either In leaving or remain ing. It will be partly, he said, a ques tion of which church will grow the fast est, the Portland congregation, of which he is now pastor, and which numbers 500, or the church in the Chlcsago suburb. The latter church now has only a small membership, but is a rapidly-growing section of the Windy City. Mr. Mont gomery has been pastor of the local church for nearly seven years. When he took up the work, the Third Church of Portland had but 175 members. Mr. Montgomery was first apprised-, of the Intentions of the Oak Park Church when he received a letter last week, say ing that a unanimoua call would be ex tended to him If he would signify his will ingness to accept. He called a meeting of his board of eiders Sunday night, and was in session with them until after midnight. The local church Is very de sirous of retaining its pastor. Dr. William Hiram Foulkes, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, said last night that PresLyterianism in the Far West will suffer a great loss If Mr. Mont gomery should decided to leave for the East. "He is one of the best-informed men about Presbyterian matters in this section of the country we have," said Dr. Foulkes. Asked about the Oak Park Church, Dr. Foulkes said he believes it will, in a few years, be a flourishing con gregation. ASK MONTGOMERY TO KEMAIX Members of Church Do Not Want Pastor to Leave. The congregation of the Third Pres byterian Church is unanimous in its de sire that Rev. Andrew J. Montgomery, the pastor, should not accept the call to the Oak Park- Presbyterian Church of Chicago, and will hold him here if possible. Wilson Benefiel, a prominent member of the session, the official body of the church, said yesterday: "We certainly shall do all we can to induce Rev. Mr. Montgomery not to ac cept the Chicago call. I don't know of a single member of the congregation but who Is anxious that he should remain here. Rev. Montgomery seems Inclined to accept this call when It comes, but we are Just as anxious as we can be to have him remain. This is the sentiment of the congregation, and all who have heard that a call was to be given him. We need him here in Portland. Our meeting Sunday night continued till after mid- SEASON FOR CROUP NOW AT HAND "WOMAN WHO KNOWS BEST CROUP REMEDY IN DEMAND. Goose Grease No Longer Depend' ed Upon Because Chamber lain's Cough. Remedy Is Better. From the Atchison, Kan Dally GlobeJ This is the season when the woman who knows the best remedies for croup is in de mand in every neighborhood. One of the moat terrible things in the world is to be awakened in the middle of the night by s whoop from one of the children. The croup remedies are almost as sure to be lost, in case of croup, as a revolver is sure to be lost in case of burglars. Geese are not very good to eat, but they are in great demand because of their grease, which is good to put on a cloth and tie around the neck of croupy patients. Jewish families nearly always have goose grease on band. Moat children, when they have croup, refuse to take the remedies offered them. The only thing to do is to hold their noses and make them take it. There used to be an old fash ioned remedy for croup, known as hive syrup and tolu, but some modern mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough Bemedy is better, and does not cost so much. 1 1 causes the patient to "throw np the phlegm" quicker, and give telief in a shorter time.

Mr. Montgomery has been pastor of the Third Church for six and one half years. He is also a prominent leader in the Portland Presbytery and the Ore gon Synod. He has reached a high place in the hearts of his own congregation and Is esteemed by all who have come into contact with him. The call is an attractive one, as the Oak Park Church What I 1 I am anxious that every man who is a sufferer- I care not as to whether his trouble is blood poison, "weakness," nervous debil ity, organic weakness, varicocele or hydro cele should know that IF I ACCEPT HIS CASE he is assured a PERFECT and a PERMANENT CURE. I guarantee this. My written guarantee contains, among other protecting clauses, this plain state ment: "If the cure is not made to the satisfaction of the patient, ALL THE MONEY is to be refunded, without deduc tion for any cause whatever." In justice, mmr T out- VflTT what st.rontrer nroof I can offer than this as to my certainty of being able to cure YOUf Come and tell mc what clearer proof you would like to have and it is at your disposal. You must remember that your confidence is FULLY RESPECTED. I never divulge a name. If my cured patients wish to speak kindly of me, they will do so. I have never asked it, I never shall.

I emplov the only scientific and fully effective treatment for "weakness, which effects a permanent cure by restoring the prostate gland to a sound but healthy state. I obtain complete results In every case I treat. Interest lnr literature and a beautiful engraved chart free if you will call. Contracted Disorders The serious results that may follow neglect of contracted diseases could scarcely be exag irated. Safety demands an absolutely thorough cure in the least possible time. I have treated more cases of contracted disorders than any other physician upon the Pacific Coast. My jures are thorough and are accomplished in less time than other forms of treatment require In producing even doubtful results. I employ remedies of rav own devising, and my treat ment is equally effective In both recent and chronic cases. I Treat Men Only The vast multitude of men who have taken my treatment have not been disappointed. They know that I do not promise more than I perform. To them I have actually illus trated In the cure of their own cases the truth of what I claim, namely, that my treatment is as certain to cure as It is that my patient engages my services and follows my directions.
