GREAT PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN BEGUN BY "500,000 CLUB" SCENE AT ORGANIZATION OP "500,000" MOVEMENT AT PORTLAND COMMERCIAL CLUB BANQUET r , : r m..... - , i IIJ6 j feAftft) f to sr,EU.P5mRC5S I . , . j tr1 Continued From First Page.) from a commercial consideration and It was predicted by Mr. Wilcox that the Canadian Paclflo would be entering this city on Its own tracks within five years. Mr. Wilcox said he placed hla confidence In Portland because of th "resources that lie behind It and the people who sit in front of it." Dr. Andrew C. Smith, president of the Hlbernla Savings Bank, responded to the toast "Portland as a Half a Million Financial Center." He eaid that Port land, which now ranked third In wealth among the cities of the United States, would succeed to first place If the spirit manifested at the banqnet should be perpetuated until 1913. B. S. Josselvu, president of the Portland Railway, )4ht & Power Company, dlscusssed "Trans portation Service for Half a Million City." He said his company would be prepared to meet all reasonable require ments as to service and to keep pace with the city's growth, in promoting which it would do its part to assist. Mr. Josselyn took, the position that the street railway system of any city is necessarily the partner of the munici pality Itself, there being a mutuality of Interests between the two. He made the announcement that the investment of his corporation, while already larger than that of any other corporation in the city, would be Increased, extensions to the system made, and an improved service assured in proportion to the de mands of the public. Incidentally, Mr. Josslyn took a fling at Mayor Lane, who was characterized as a "political dema gogue," by reason of his recent an nouncement that should he become a can didate for Mayor It would be on an anti- treet railway platform. William McMurray, general passen Iter agent for the Harriman lines In this territory, was introduced as "one of the best boosters in the state," and Rave an enthusiastic talk on "Trans continental Migration to Oregon by Railroad." "This gathering," said Mr. McMurray. "la the best "family meeting' I have ever attended. It is typical of Portland and the state, and Is an ex ample of the unanimity of feeling throughout the state from Ashland on the south to Huntington on the east, for the further development of the state." ;. McMurray Wants More Roads. Mr. McMurray referred to the unprece dented record in the arrival of new set tlers In the state and commented on the fact that for the first two weeks the colonist rates were In effect this year, 1000 more people entered the state than for the same period a year ago. He com mended the "600,000 movement" and said he hoped to see the time when there would be 12 railroads instead of Ave en tering Portland, explaining that the greater theyiumber of railroads, the bet ter it would be for the state. Kills a. Hughees was Introduced as "al ways a booster" and entertained the present-day boosters with a recital of what Portland did in the way or raising publicity funds 20 years ago. At that time, he said, the business men of Port land, when the population did not ex ceed 5o.000, raised f,000 in one year for advertising purposes. He waa confident the committees that had been appointed could without trouble raise J200.000 as well as tho J100.000 they had fixed as their goal. "Portland should have the Alaska trade," asserted Mr. Hughes. "This city is nearer Skagway uy the outside route than Puget Sound Is by the inside route. Harriman is building a railroad from Portland to Seattle, presumably to get a part of that Alaskan trade. If he would put on a line of steamers between this city and Skagway. there would not be any Alaska trade to be had by Seattle." rXscUBstng the probable population of Portland in 1912, Mr. Hughes predicted that It would surpass the 500,000 mark. "Kven if you do nothing to advertise Portland, you will have a population of WO.AOd three years from now." he said, "and if you go to work along the lines you have mapped out. you will easily have 58O.O0O." To Rev. Benjamin Young, pastor of the Taylor-street M. E. Church, was given the assignment of preaching a three minute sermon on "A Half a Million Congregation." 'This Is not too great an idea for this city and the men at the head of. Its busi ness life," said Dr. Young. "It is prac tical, sane, sensible. There Is every in dication that the remarkable development of this section of the country is to con tinue with leaps and bounds. To accom plish the results that are aimed at by this organisation, all that is necessary is for each to assume his share of the re sponsibility and give his assistance. With the spirit that Is manifested here to night, there is little question but that the 600.000 population will be attained by 1813." Reviews Publicity Work. In the concluding address last night Dr. Wetherbee. president of the Commercial dub. reviewed the history of the publicity department since Its organization In 1904. He pointed out that the work was orig inally supported by 27 men. The speaker said he waa ashamed to say how much money had been spent during the past year. He added that If the money had r been spent to the very best advan tage, the club could not have obtained the results it had. "During that time," he said, "27.000 letters of inquiry have been received by the department from farmers and others in the East who want to settle in Oregon. When the department was first formed, Mr. Richardson immediately organized the Oregon Development- League. Five years ago there wasn't a town In Oregon that had anything like a publicity bureau. These towns were all against Portland. When the league was launched every town in it became a booster, not only for its own locality, but for the state and Portland as wll. Every week there goes out from the club here a letter to each of these towns which is published in the local papers, and the people everywhere now fcelleve that Portland Is a friend of the state. "We must become a unit. The people of the East can hardly bear the truth regarding our resources here. We have 700,000 people, and we have resources enough for 20.000.000 people. We can support that number more easily than Massachusetts can support half her pres ent population. It is up to us to tell these "Eastern people what we have here; and we needn't enlarge upon the facts, either. We want the Eastern farmers to come here and settle in our fertile val leys, and If they come. Portland will in crease in population. Five hundred thou sand people In 1912 means 3,000,000 In the State of Oregon. Help Needed for Workers. "What we want to do now Is to holcL up the hands of these public-spirited men who have been carrying the burden. We want 2000 men in the next three days to help as much as possible In raising this publicity fund. We ought to have a press bureau. We need It and we are going to have it. We want an Information bureau maintained in the station where any man who wants to locate here can get Infor mation regarding localities without ref erence to any individual or real estate firm. We must do this if we are going to do the work right. It Is Just as Im portant that the City of Portland should advertise her resources as that a business house should advertise its business. The only way we can do this is by increas ing our fund." Edward Ehrman, of the Mason-Ebrman Company, spoke briefly in behalf of the new movement. "We have in Eastern Oregon, and In Central Oregon." said Mr. Ehrman, "at least 30,000 square miles of territory that is undeveloped and that really belongs to Portland. Without it our jobbing busi ness will gradually grow less. We should all work hard to have Central Oregon de veloped. There Is not a foot of railroad in it. We are promised a railroad there. We should not let up on that movement until it Is commenced not even then. I will do what I can to aid in this boosting campaign, and believe that everyone who has been asked to assist should consider It a favor to do so." East Side Grows Fast. C. A. Blgelow, of the East Side Business Men's Club, spoke briefly and alluded to the advancement the East Side business section has made in the past few years. "In 1913 we shall probably have the second largest vehicle business in the country," said Mr. Bigelow, "and other Industries will show an equal expansion. We feel that the East Side can safely say that she can contribute 300,000 or 400,000 to the population; so unless you West Side gentlemen raise your figures considerably there isn't going to be very much left for you to do." , "There can be no doubt that the coming of the North Bank road into Portland marked an era," said James B. Kerr. counsel for that railroad. "One cannot talk about it in a new or novel way be cause it has been the subject of so much laudation that every statement regarding It has become a platitude. If, however, the North Bank road had been built a generation ago, tonight we would be looking back upon and not forward to a population of 600.000." E. B. McNaughton was called upon to give his Impressions of Portland from an architectural standpoint In 1912. He said: "I believe that Portland three years from now will have a group of skyscrap ers that will make a camel's hump look like the Sahara. This city will have more 'class A" buildings In 191S and fewer of the 'cream puff' type; more dwellings that can be lived in in cold weather and fewer of the sort that have to be aban doned in such weather as we had last January. I believe we. have got a great city here, set in superb surroundings. One of the best-known landscape archi tects in the country was in Portland a day or two ago and was In my office. He asked me what the possibilities were here for a man in his line. I told him to go and get his shovel and go to work. He is going to make hie home here. He will help to make Portland one of the most beautiful cities in the United States by 1911" Objects of 500,000 Club.

Thirty members shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Original Songs Make Hit. During the dinner and sandwiched between the addresses of the various speakers, the enthusiasm of fhe ban queters found expression in singing several verses that had been set to National and popular music, all of which were decidedly appropriate to the spirit that animated the gathering. Under the title, "In Portland We'll Have Half a Million," the following was one of the verses adjusted to the air of "Marching Through Georgia".: Clear the way for boosting, boys; we'll sing a Portland song. Sing it with a spirit that will move the town along. In nlnteen twelve we're going to be Ave hundred thousand strong; In Portland we'll have half a million". The chorus follows: Hurrah! Hurrah! for Greater Portland town! Hurrah! Hurrah! for Greater Oregon "With forty ten of water down Columbia to v the sea. In Portland we'll have half a million. , "Boost, Boost, Boost,") was the title of another vocal selection, which was sung to the tune of "Tramp, Tramp, Tramp." One of the verses and the cho rus follow: Population is our quest. With more neonle we'ri he bleat- We're the llvest. brightest city and the best' Get before the people's eyes, , Spread our story; advertise. And in three years we'll be biggest in the West. Boost! Boost! Boost! for half a million Tune up. boosters, and they'll come And before three years are o'er We'll be blgger'n Baltimore And five hundred thousand will call Port- land "Home." Words of "Boost Song."' Still another was called a "Boost Song." It waa set to the music of "A Stein Song," and its words were: Raise of roses twenty trillion And lets boost, and build and delve; Shout our slogan, half a million. Greater Portland. - nineteen twelve. So in all kinds of weather. Proud and loyal we all boost together For our City of Portland And our State of Oregon. The air "Heidelberg" was utilized to good purpose in another selection, "Ore gon, Dear Oregon," in which some of the attractive features of the state and its citizenship were recounted in the fol lowing terms: Better than riches or worldly wealth la life In a clime that's royal. Teeming with happiness, hope and health and warmed bv a mm Wi.n Sweeter than pelf that Is won' by stealth la vuuuing- wun citizens loyal; So come let us clink, but first let us drink uiiw waei witn a Drimmlng stein. Here's to the.state that knows no dearth Here's to the hopes that rlee. Here's to her sons, the best on earth Here's to her smiling skies Here's to her past so glorious. Here's to her future great. Here's to her. ever victorious. Here's to our own dear state. Set to the more lively air of "In Jungle Town," the contempt of the genuine Portland booster for the knocker found expression In the following sample verse of a selection entitled, "In Portland Town:" Bown in Portland town the boosters knocked a knocker down; Sore, he hit the floor;' they drowned his roar: there are no more. Boosters singing, cheers are ringing; Port land forward oesL Kever slumping, ever Jumping; how the city grows. Room for you, if you're true, come to Port- tuna, too. CHORUS. Down in Portland town, where boosters ooofTt ana never roost. Half a million eager noses Soon will smell our Portland roses. And dear old Portland will lead the Coast and loudly boast Half a million, nineteen 'twelve, way down in Portland town. Those Present at Banquet. Guests at the dinner were: F. H. Ransom Charles J.

The crowd was enthusiastic in Its plaudits and Blspham was especially gracious in his replies to encores. His reception was as warm as ever and his voice as sweet and resonant as when he has appeared here be forefore. English songs and ballads were selected by Mr. Blspham, who upheld his reputation of being the "song Interpretation King." His phrasing was a work of art and his voice resonant and strong. But best of all In Mr. Bispham's work Is the artistic appreciation he shows. One need only to look at his face to see that he has a fine intellectual mind and It is his application of it to his voice that has placed him in the enviable position he holds among con cert singers. Denver Republican. The dramatic power of Mr. Bispham's voice, his strong, manly personality his wonderful range and the beauty of hla tones were never more apparent than last evening. He Is at his best In songs which express tenderness and feeling and also in Jovial, rollicking ditties. Every sort of emo tion he aroused in his audience, which showed its appreciation with half a dozen encores. San Francisco Call.

The Harmony ,Of Home Does Not Mingle With or Emanate Prom the Table of Dyspepsia. In the home, meal time should awaken In all the Inhabitants a pecu liar harmony of Joy which will make for the home the abiding place of In terest and happiness. If one member at the dinner table Is out of sorts, his Influence Is felt and the harmony Is lacking. Conversation and mirth are absent. Devouring thoughts assail the diners and silence prevails. "At The Dyspeptic's Table Ominous, (Inlet And Gloom Crowds Oat Mirth." All physicians agree that mirth and Joy at meal time does much toward digestion. Mirth tingles the whole nervous organism of man, the cells wherein are stored valuable digestive Juices, empty their contents under the nerve stimulation and promote the highest degree of digestion. If gloom and discomfort prevail at table the reverse action obtains and meals become necessities, not antici pated joys. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are little storehouses of digestion which mix "with the stomach Juices, digest food, retingle the mucous membrane and Its nerve centers, give to the "blood a great wealth of digestive fluids, promote di gestion and stays by the stomach until all Its duties are complete. - If dyspepsia sits at tables It makes the dining room a place of awe; these tablets should be taken after meals and dyspepsia of a consequence flees. No need for diet or fasting. The dyspeptics who will use them religious ly will find no sense of nausea in the sight of generous meals or In the odor of rich cooking. It matters now what the condition of the stomach Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets only Improve the juices and bring quiet to the whole digestive canal, of which the stomach Is the center. Forty thousand physicians use these tablets In their practice and every druggist sells them. Price 60c. Send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package by mail free. Address F. A.
