Merchant Would Divert Trade! From
Man FraiicUco Apjwul to
HUunii'r Owners.
PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 28. Me
llevelng that far closer relations
can bo established with the townH
along the Umnqua and Sululaw, local
merchant are taking steps to Induce
the owners of the steamer Arago
which recently begnn to ply between
Portland and Tillamook, to drop In
to the former coast ports on both
tha up and down trips. Under the
present arrangements It Is said that
practically all of the commerce from
that eectlon goes to Han rrnnclsco.
With regular stenmshtp Bervlce to
Portland It Is the consennus of onin
Ion that this condition would be re
versed. Relative to the matter. J
Kahn, a well known local business
man, says:
"I am certain that the merchants
of Portland would secure much valu
able trndo If a boat from hero should
go in thoro regularly. Resides I
think It would 1)0 a paying proposi
tion to the steamship line. That Is
one of the richest sections of Ore
gon. But so far the residents hnve
been greatly handicapped on account
of poor and uncertain transportation
facilities. To ship out thoir pro
duct they hnve been forced to de
pend upon the Irregular visits of
Binnll sailing vesRols from San Frnn
cIbco, and they procure their goods
In the enme innnnor.
"It Is one of the best dnlry and
stock rnlslng regions In Oregon. The
best grndo of oatB on ihe const Is
produced on (ho Umpuua. A rem!)
market for them Is found at Sun
Francisco, whore the cereal com
mands a higher price than any oth
er onts grown In the Northwest. In
addition thoro are .large sawmlllr
wlth a big annual output which liar
to seek a market In California. Then
are several salmon canneries and
many other lines of Industry from
which regular patronnge would be
received If a Portland steamer would
cnll in there. In the past few your?
that section hns been greatly devel
oped, and few people up this way np
pear to have any conception of It."
O. N. G. WILL TRY AGAIN
FOR AN APPROPRIATION

Army In Favored.
PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 28. Undis
mayed by thoir defeat at the general
election In Juno, tho National (luurds
mcn of Oregon will nttompt to secure
tho passago of a revised and modi
fled armory appropriation bill nt the
coming session of the Oregon leg
islature. Much action hns already
been set In motion. Tho legislative
committee or the Nntlonnl (lunrd As
sociation which Is holding its third
annual convention In tho Armory,
this afternoon wrestling with a pre
liminary draft of the measure which
will bo submitted. Tho Importance
of this announcement may te seen
from the fact thut tho $100,000 ar
mory appropriation bill which passed
the last legislature but was snowed
under through referendum treatment
at the general polls, aroused the
most strenuous and bitter opposition
from tho Stale (irnnge nnd tho Tax
payers' League of this city. That
measure carried but two counties In
the state, the reason being, so It. if
now stated, that It was not speclllc
enough In Its provisions, and nt the
snino tlmo did not appeal to tho vol
ors of the rural districts.
The legislative rommlitee upon
whoso shoulders will devolve the
duty of waging the rnmpnlgn for n
new armory appropriation bill will

The Oregon guardsmen are also
likely to go on record ns fnvnrliiR
the passage by Congnwa of the rut
ting down of tho standing army of
the United States from r.0,000 to 30 -000
men; for the uplifting of a much
stronger National reserve; for the
abandonment of Interior military
posts, for the mobilization of the
regular army at strategic points for
roam ami narnor demise work. Iteso
lutlonfl are llkelv tn rrrv t,i H r.
feet that the president of Ihe United
fltntes should permit the nMHlirtniteitt
of officers of state militia to service
in me rogulnr army for a period nt
not less than two years on full pay
and allowance, and to resume their

Another rmolnllon likely to be
nuopted la one favoring the assign
ment of officers nt the render irnu
to commands In the various national
guards of the different stntes. Each
and all of these nt'ommcndnlions
are In the Interest of putting the
United States on a "peace footing of
National reserves equal In fighting
power to the regular standing armies
' any nation on earth. The old
volunteer system which was so effect
ive In the earlier wars Is now looked
up as an anachronism, and not the

PARIS, Dec. 28. Although gen
eral trade conditions In France siilfer
ed in 1908 lurgely because of the
reduction in American demand, fig
urea submitted by M. Iroy Deaulleu
and other statisticans demonstrate
the Imposing strength of France's fin
ancial position and her right to the
title of "Tho World's Hanker."
France's fortune Ib growing steadily
as the result of an annual savings
of $1,000 000,000, much or which
must seek investment abroad.
M. Leroy Deuulleu's figures show
that France now receives $:ti0,000,
000 as annual Income from foreign
holdings. Ho estimates the present
wealth of the French people at $45,
000,000,000 or more than $1100
for every mnn, woninn nnd child, and
as the estimate Ib bused upon de
clared succession taxes, it is admit
tedly much below the real figures.
Medicine That Ib Medicine.
"I have suffered a good deal with
malaria and stomach complaints, but
I have now found a remedy that
keeiis me well, and that remedy is
Electric Hitters; a medicine that is a
medicine for Btomach and liver trou

says W. C. Kelster, of Hallidny, Ark ,

Pood and Emotion.
The following really happened on
board a pleasure steamer lu the Kyle
of Bute. A young houeymoou couple
were sitting side by side gazing on
the lovely scenery around them.
"Isu't It heavenly, George?" Bhe mur
mured. "I feel thrills all over me."
Then without a pause, us If still car
ried awuy by the Inspiration of the
moment, "Dearest, If there are uuy left
I think I would like a chocolate."
No good reason exists why spiritual
emotions should not make one hungry.
The bride who demanded sweets was
'wiser than a girl who once remained

after the departure of her lover fur
India. At last an amateur Hebe ven
tured upslulrs with a cup of coffee
and a plate of toast. Yielding to per
huhhIoii. the mulcted maiden was In
duced to eat and drink and began to
look somewhat less dejected.
"I believe I was dying for something
all the time," she Anally confessed,
"but I was afraid to ask lest peoplo
would believe me to be less unhappy

Scared Out of the Duel.
One day M. Kdmoud About called
upon Oris lor, the most celebrated fenc
ing master of bis day. "I am In a
quandary," said About "I allowed
myself yesterday the pleasuro of a
Joke In bad taste, and a duel Is to be
the result. I know nothing whatever
about fencing, and, as you can Bee, 1
am fat. Will you give me a lesson, so
that I may nut make myself too ridicu
lous?" Thtf lesson was given, but
About proved a very poor pupil. On
his way out he saw a photograph of
Orisler. "I suppose," he said, "I must
not ask you for one of these?" "With
the greatest pleasure," said the fencing
master. And. with a chuckle, (irlsier
wrote across tho photograph, "To M.
I'Mmond About, the best pupil I have
over had." A few hours afterward the
seconds of About's adversary called
on the writer, saw the photograph on
the innutelplece and, fearing for their
friend at the hands of so redoubtable
a swordsman, arranged the a flair with
out any duel.

"What have I got out of It?" said
Henry, stroking his chin and smiling

with courtesy. Always he was so
courteousalways his actions, like
this little one of kissing my hand, were
so beautifully timed. They came Just
before the shken words and gave
them peculiar value.
"That's not a bad summing up of It
all," I said. "And the end bow would
you like that to come?"
"How would I like thnt to come?"
He repeated iny question lightly, yet
meditatively too. Then he was silent
