of yesterday. The gallery roared.
The mayor laughed so quietly that ha
seen became the cynosure of eyes. Audit

uty Auditor Grutsa read the etty char

The fun began when a vote was taken
upon tha veto of thq mayor of tha or
dinance making an appropriation for
the salaries of the assistant superin
tendent of the fire alarm and police
telegraph system and assistant lineman.
Neither of these positions had been cre
ated when the ordinance was passed.
The Veto- message was read and a vote
was to be taken. ..

The Gray liquor ordinance. Increas

, -What ordinance! asked Sharkey
' again. . .
f- "I believe It Is tha liquor ordinance,"
'replied Shepherd. .':'.' :
Auditor Devlin ...solemnly afnrmed
that the-ordinance ha had just read
was the Gray liquor ordinance, and the
)'nharkey moved that tha action on tha
'measure be postponed two weeks, or
f until all councilman were provided with
copies of Jt. ...
"I'll overrule yoo on. that." said Shep
; herd. - -, s . . ' -,-. . ' .
'Then .I'll move that we refer tha

to adjourn." said eneraey nouy. .

- sponded Shepherd.
t "But the rule ' of tha council are

Shepherd himself moved that the

' prise That Khould Have Been .
Kept In This City Is Forced

Am - Oregoalan'a Invention That WW
Bevolutlonlae .Overland Traaspor-
tatloa aad Z.aa4 JrTowtnf.
An Outfit That Will Tarn Over tha Soil
. at tha Bate of ?. Cents on the
Dollar of Ordinary Cost.
Tho Multnomah Mechanical Manufac
turing Company held Its annual election
at its .offices In tha Chamber of Com
merce, resulting In but few . changes
from that of last year. F. A. Oerllng
was reelected president and manager,
3. M. Turtle, secretary and yeasurer;
F.-C. Iloerker, attorney for the com
pany, and J. A. Pettttt, M. !., vice
president. The board of directors con
alst of J. A. Pettttt, M. D., P. M. Shu
man. F. C Hoecker, J.--M. Tuttle and
F. A'. Oerllng.
The Multnomah Mechanical Manufac
turing Company was organised In this
city by F. A. Oerllng, inventor of an
entirely original Idea In' traction en
gines. In that tha heavier lt burden tha
more powerful la Its capacity to trail 1
ande-wdulaTny-tosd " which " It. Is" altarm-art
coupled witn the engine, Mr. Oerllng in
vented a plow capable of turning any
number of farrows, fium onu in e dosen
or more. If he' desires to extend Its
breadth. Figuring, therefore, the ordi
nary price of plowing at tl per. acre,
Mr. Gerling plow will do. tha work at
It cents; In a country where plowing
costs IS per acre, this engine and plow
'will do It for It cents per acre. For
freighting It will pull and carry a load
equal to any two or three of tha old
sty la tractions. The reason for this Is
that it not only hauls trailers behind,
but carries as muchfreight upon Its
deck as the ordinary traction will trail
behind It. Thta deck load, by reason of
Its weighting the angina down. Increases
its capacity for hauling, and In this
respect It Is the only Invention of tha
kind In existence. - '
There la a story connected with this
enterprise that "points a moral and
adorns a tale." Arter Mr.- Oerllng, a
native Oregon Ian. had perfected his In
vention, and upon trial of his model
found It a complete success, he cast
about for a place to have tha engines
tha plows constructed. - In this pursuit
ha visited all tha Iron .works In Port
land, resulting In the best reply to his
proposition being that of a certain ma
chine shop which said:
"We will charge you St cents par
hour for our men while employed In
building your machine, but cannot guar
antee yon anything."
This was rather a "lonesome" bid. In
the estimation of Mr. Gerling, so after
thinking the matter over he decided to
try his luck in soma other city: The
4 result was that.- after . investigating
matters In St. Uuis he proceeded to
Ohio, and the engines -end plows are
now being made at Hamilton, Ohio, at
less than half what the coat would have
been i If made In Portland. The enter
prise, therefore. Is transferred from this
state to the Buckeye commonwealth,
and Mr. Gerling and Mr. Tuttle ara now
In Portland arranging to move their
families to that state, and . will lea ve
for Hamilton some time next' week. The
fir gal headquarters of tha concern will.
however, remain here, at 40s Chamber
of Commerce, V
At Hamilton Mr. Gerling made tha
acquaintance of a Mexican of wealth
who became greatly Interested In the
plow and engine; and ha induced the in-.
ventor to visit Chihuahua. This trip
resulted In 700 outfits being sold la I
Mexico by the time the first one was
completed - at Hamilton. .. Not only'
Portland, but Oregon, therefore. Is loser I
by tha Inability of local machine shops
to do the work here that Is being dona
East at less than half what It would
cost on- tha Pacific coast.

London, Feb. 7.- An enthualastle
Scot nere la trying to convert English

body who baa -One worn kllta will never
forget tbe comfort and warmth It In
sures. IUs opinion ts Indorsed by a
west end physician, who, among other
argu-nenta, claims that petticoats are
much warmer 'than trousers.
Tha editor of the Tailor and Cutter
says tbe fashionable ' streets of the
west end certainly gain In picturesque
ness by adoption of kilts. Among other
advantages. It would necessarily kill
tha obnoxious high hat and abolish
baggy trousers... . It la mora costly than
tha ordinary suit, but wilt wear - far
longer and never lose shape.
IDAHO STOCKMEN WILL r
NOT LOSE BY STORM
Oran gevllle, Ida.l Jeb,.!. Subsequent
reports concerning tbe Salmon river
stock situation which were brought out
to Orangeville today by parties arriv
ing from as far up. the river as War
ren are of the most cheerful nature.
All rumors of heavy sheep and cattle
losses are greatly exaggerated and
stockmen and ranchers have enough
feed to last a month or six weeks.
Boiling Is responsible for tho death
of more stock than starvation and the
effect of tha latter la not being more
pronounced than In average - winters.
Telephonic advices from Ooff deny the
reported loss of 1.(00 sheep - belonging
to Holt Rhoadea. the big Idaho
county stockmen. Sheep and csttle In
that locality are In good condition and
able to withstand tha. winter without
appreciable 111 effects.

The Knight Shoe company, "all around
the northwest corner of Third and
Washington.' has added a new depart
ment, and certainly a natural one to
run In conjunction with shoes a ho
siery department Soros Is hosiery for
ladies bears the- same stamp of high
quality as does ths weU-known SotosIs
shoe. For men, to correspond, they
carry the Snawlcalt socks. These es
pecial lines range all the way np to IT
a pair, and are most beautiful in de
sign and coloring. Plaids all the tar
tsns and polka dots maintain the lead.
Tha' Increasing popularity of pumps for
street wear Is perhaps accountable for
the unusual elaborateness of hosiery.
The latest styles received , have tha
mall leather bow to match' tha shoe,
which Is really more of V slipper, and
which will afford the pretty foot and
ankle the very beat of opportunities to
be admired. . Mr. Knight maintains r.t
all times a splendid window display,
always with cut or growing flowers for
the centerpiece. t
