Attorneys are now preparing a iolnt tracjtage arrangement between the Ore gon KJectrte and tba Portland Railway. LJght ac Power Companies, which they will perfect for tha Oregon Electric a loop In the business district and for tha street railway an opportunity to make a loop on Stark street by which all cars going over the Steel and Broadway bridsea need not cross Washington street. This will lessen the Washing' lon-atreet congestion. Tha arrange ment la subject to tba approval of the City Council and the whole question will ba presented In a few daya to tha city authorities. The arrangement provides for tha use ef tha Portland Railway. Light Power Company's tracks on Second street by tha Oregon Electric from Salmon to Stark street, where the United Railways tracks ara placed. The United Rail ys Is a portion of the system to which tha Oregon Electric belongs and Ita tracks will ba uaed to Tenth street. On Tenth etreet the Una la continued until Salmon la reached, and from that point It runs down Salmon to Front. nd on Front to Jefferson, tha depot location. Thus It will furnlah the Oregon Elec. trie with a loop by which the Inter- urban cars may go from the depot at Jefferson street to Salmon atreet. pass down Second and make the circuit In almost the heart of tha business dis trict. It will permit passeccera to leave cars at any point desired, it Is pointed out that in due time an Inter-urban depot of considerable dimensions may ba constructed at some point on thla loop. With thtwsrreet railway the object to ba gained In giving the Joint trackage rights on Second street was to create a turning point for all of tha cars that now pass over tha Steel bridge. All he cars now cross Washington street. causing delays In tha passing of cars along that thoroughfare. To avoid this congestion tha only avenue available ras to secure an opportunity to go own Stark atreet at Fifth to First and then go towards the bridge. Tl.e lawyers." aald B. S. Josselyn. president of tha Portland Railway. Ught & Power Company, "are now en gaged In drafting the contracts and the necessary papers to be aubmitted to tha Ity Council. ' The plan will furnlah the city with a better system and a utrkrr transportation service, and In he end permit of many additional ad vantages. Washington atreet haa be come congested on account of tha de ars caused by the Steel bridge cars In crossing the street. There Is always a rlay when a car croasea a atreet, and tn thla case we can save conaiderable Ime on all of tha llnea wrich use that bridge." OLD SLOAN PLAGE SOLO TRACT OF 35 ACRKS BIUVRS S50.0OO SPOT CASH. IX-al Shows Keen Demand for Prop erty Tributary to Portland. Bayer Will Subdivide. The old Sloan place of 3: acres lust at the southwest edge of the town of Heaver ton waa sold yesterday for J..0. 00 spot cash. The buyer Is a British Columbia capitalist whose name will soon be announced, and the sale was made bv the new realty Arm of L. r Nlner and C. K. Wlckland. The prop- rty was own.d by the Sloan estate. Tha farm had been on trie market less than two weeks. It la the largest oash sale made recently, and tha trans fer proves that desirable acreage tiibu- arv to Portland la not going oegging when offered at fair prices. With the exception or 9 acres inai as been ciearea time dj imi. in last Si years, the whole tract la virgin Imber of good sue ani mica growia. So far aa known, tha Umber baa never been cruised. The purchaser la a man of means ana he Intends to supply all the men and money needed to cut tha timber Into whatever offers the best commercial alua. At the same operation he In' tends to clear tha land and make It ready for the plow. The tract Is level and the son ncn nd deep. It Is well adapted for truck farming and It will be subdivided Into mall parcels for this purpose. The Southern Paclflr West Side Una and tha Oregon Electrlo run through 1L HE WOULD SERVE PEOPLE Rev.

It will be understood. I feel, that I do not see the orrice for political advantage or private gain of any kind, but that, it elected. It would ba my sole purpose t.. .erve tha people, very largely irom tha standpoint of the practical Christian. Experience I Wld. "I have had wide experience In busi ness affairs, for example, and under stand bow to transact business; my whole life has been devoted to building churches sad parsonages, raising funds for various religious enterprises and. at one time. I atudled law, ao tbat 1 fee! I am qualified to occupy a posi tion in the Council, if the people should elect me, and I would make a careful study of city affairs, with a view to ac quainting myself with the problems that lie ahead, ao that I would ba in a position at once to do my full duty by my constituents in an intelligent manner.-" What particular Interests would you undertake to serve. If you were elected a Councilman waa asked of Rev, Mr. MePherson. Of caurse." he replied. it wou'd oa understood, first of all. that I would vote against all saloon licenses, ail grillroom licenses and such evils as that; I would not be a party to licens ing, for example, a place like that where a woman was murdered by her husband yesterday. I am Prat of ail Methodist minister, endeavoring; to uplift the human family; It would, therefore, ba impossible for me to lend my support to any questionable business. "I would do my best to serve the fublic well, and while viy busy In my church affairs. I would take suf ficient time to study into the dctai'.s of every proioaltlon that would come be fore the Council for action. Prog-res la Favored. I believe most heartlir in progres sive measures; I would try to get the expression of the people on measures like paving. Improvements of various kinds, and would be inclined to vote to give property owners crfectly fair trea'ment in aucb mattsrr, ao that I could understand their arlsl cs and vote accordingly. I would not vote to force pt-ot'e to accent a pavement they do not want, and It wouli be the peop'.e who would get my support in erev way were I to be elec'ed; that wou'd b-t my only purpose In serving; ia a Councilman." Rev. Mr. MePherson has been a mem ber of the Oregon conference for IX years, during which time he has held pastorates In or near to Portland. He built many churches and parson ages. Including Epworth. where ho has been pastor for four years. His work In church-building has been remark rLle, and all of the buildings are paid for. His genius in nalsing funds is fully recognlxed. and for that reason a etrT s f s - lis your Grocer Doctor a - . r -a. an vrraiia. Better Patronize than your Nine-tenths of all human ills start from stomach trouble. , Lard-cooked food, greasy and indigestible, is the cause of most stom ach troubles. The remedy is in the hands of your cook -not your doctor. Cottolene is a vegetable-oil cooking fat that is far superior to lard, buttef or any other fat for frying and shortening. Cottolene is pure in its source; it comes from the cotton fields of the Sunny South, and is made from the choicest of pure, refined . cotton oil. Cottolene is manufactured in a cleanly manner, amid the most favorable sanitary surroundings. Cottolene is packed in air-tight, friction-top pails to insure its freshness and prevent it from absorbing dust and odors of the grocery. We authorize your grocer to refund your money if Cottolejie is found to be other than fresh and satisfactory. Cottolene makes healthful food, and food which any stomach can digest. It is worth more per pail than lard or any imitation, because being richerr it will go one-third farther and is therefore most economical. From Cottonfield to Kitchen Human Hands Never Touch the Oil from which Cottolene is made Made only by THE N. K. FAIRBANK COMPANY he has been named as one of those to so'leit for the endowment fund of the Willamette University. APPOIXTOIENT IS DFXAYED Objection Made to C. V. Johnson as Appraiser of Customs. Stoma hitch has occurred at Washing ton In the appointment of a. succeasor to the late General Owen Bummers. Ap praiser of Customs for tho Port of Portland. Shortly after the death of fleneral Summers, Representative Hawley recommended to President Taft the ap" pointment of C V. Johnson, of Corvallis. This recommendation was concurred In by R. E. Williams. National Committee man for thla state. Johnewn was for merly chairman of the First District Congressional Committee. Since Johnson's" name was presented to the President, however, objections have been raised to his appointment. It has been called to the attention of the President that Johnson is not a resi dent of the district in which the port is located. Furthermore, Bowerman, de feated Republican candidate for Gov ernor, and hla friends have been active. They have reminded Taft that Johnson took off his coat following Bowerman's nomination In the primaries aa the Re publican nominee for Governor and openly worked for and supported West, the Democratic nominee. In the meantime, two other candidates for this nomination have developed in the persons of Carl S. Kelty, a Portland newspaper man. and L H. Adams, ex Representative from Multnomah County. Kelty is backed by Representative Laf ferty, whose campaign he conducted last Fall, and also has the indorsement of Senator Nottingham, chairman of the Republican State Committee; John F. Ixlfran. chairman of the Multnomah County Republican Committee, and J. L. Day, chairman of the Second District Republican Congressional" Committee. It is possible Kelty may also prove Wil liams' second choice. If Johnson's ap pointment is defeated. Kelty has the advantage over the average applicant for eucb an appointment in that he never has been identified actively in politics and for that reason may be acceptable to the conflicting factions represented In Oregon Congressional delegation. - Adams is regarded as- a Bourne man and his name was freely mentioned as a possible appointee by Bourne to succeed John W. ' Minto aa Postmaster at Port land. This plum was finally awarded to John C. Toung, who was succeeded on his death a few months later by Charles B. Merrick, incumbent of the office. Halvor Candidate for Council. William S. Halvor has announced his candidacy for the Republican nomina- tioB for Councilman from the Eighth Ward. Mr. Halvor is engaged In the insurance business, although for many years he was connected with the post office service In this city, a part of the time as superintendent of the East Side stations.- Two other candidates have already announced their candi dacy for the same nomination. They . are K. K. Kubli, Incumbent of the of- ' flee, and C. V. Howard, an attorney. - 1 I Widow Asks for Administrator. OREGON CITY, March 23. (Special.)
