S2 Great Industrial District Who Could Do More? Some Salad Hints An Open Letter High School Notes The Library With the immediate invest ment of more than $5,000,000 in new enterprises and much addi tional capital ready to be placed in largo proiects.one ot uregons greatest industrial districts, sit uated along the west side of the Wilamette lliver ana directly north of the city boundary line, will hn irivnn another boost through a deal that closed last week. It ia announced that the 160 acre tract adjoining Willbridgo on the south that una been neiu in trust many years by the Mer chants National Bank will be de veloped at once and placed on the market in small parcels suit able as manufacturing sites. Slausen & Craig, extensive real ty operators, have taken over the property, the details of the deal having been concluded last Thursday. The property lies along the Linnton road with 3250 feet of deep water frontage and the same length of trackage on the S. P. & S. A. & C. 11. Great Northern and United Railways. Through a joint track arrange ment the Ilarriman lines also have direct access to this prop erty us well us to that entire industrial district. The project ia situated four and one-half miles from the Multnomah County Court house and two and one-half miles on this side of Linnton; and is declared to be u most strategic and desirable lo cution for industrial dovelop ment. One of the important feature of the property Ib that it is at the harbor which is strongly ur ged by Architect E. H. Hennet in his greater Portland plans. It is the purposo of the develop ment company to improve the wuter front along the lines sug gested in the Bonnet plans in the way of efficient and modern dock facilities. Another provision will bo the construction of spurs to the factory sitea from the main lines of the railroads passing along tho property. The district will have all the advantages of property within the city limits. Already electri city is supplied for manufactur ing purposes and tho big gas 'main from tho now plant of tho Portland Gaa & Coko Company, h short distanco down tho river, ia now being installed. Bull Hun water also will bo supplied, the contract for tho extension of a city wuter main through tho dis trict having been let by tho city council a few days ago. For a considerable distanco tho Linn ton road in that locality is paved and the highway from that local ity into tho city is always kept, in an excellent condition. "Hortlnnd's futuro as a great industrial and shipping center is certain," said C. C. Craig, of Slausen & Craig, yesterday. "Tho Panama Canal will be . opened next year and when that great passage way is in operation the trade routes of tho world will bo changed. Few peoplo in Portland, it seems, realize what that means, but to the persons who have studied the situation it is apparent that Portland and its immense territory will reap inestimable benefits. It is an established fact that capital seeks points where they are available raw material, ade quate transportation facilities and medium priced labor. With the opening of tho canal there will be attracted directly to Ore gon thousands of Europeans who will aid us in developing our great natural resources and con verting the raw material into the finished product,. The Pan ama Canal will be an important factor in re-adjusting the trans portation problems of the coun try, with the result that Portland and Oregon will be benefited in a large ,degree. There seems no doubt that great manufacturing possibilities will be opened up, with Portland as the logical in dustrial center of the Pacific Northwest "It is announced that negotia tions already are in progress for the establishment of four sepa rate factories on the property that is to be developed by Slau sen & Craig. In addition to the firospective enterprises, there are, n course of construction several plants in the immediate district that will involve a total expen diture of more than $5,000,000. These plants include those of the Portland Gas & Coke Company, the Standard Oil Company, Mon arch Oil Company, Union Oil Company, Indian Oil Company, Rasmussen & Company and sev eral other projects. Sunday Or-jfonian. Do you know what influence in Congress means? It is tho chief asset of the state that has it. Then remember that to lose Senator Bourne is to lose the lar gest asset Oregon ever acquired through any representative. Remember that in committee Bourne votes on more appropria tions that does any other mem ber of either house of Congress. Legislation in Congress is hand led in committees. Seniority is supreme in the Senate. Men rise to the top of committees lrom long service on them. It would take a new man twelve to fifteen years to secure committee places equal to those now held by Mr. Bourne. Ore gon wants appropriations and favorable legislation NOW. The state cannot afford to wait ten years or more for a represen tative to reach a place of influ ence. Bourne is chairman of the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads, which passes on appropriations aggreguting$270,- 000,000 a year; Second in rank on Fisheries, of great importance to Oregon; Member of tho Commerce Committee, bundling lill river and harbor appropriations; Member ot the niblie uufid- ings and Grounds Committee, handling all the appropriations for public buildings and grounds. Member of the Appropriations Committee, the most powerful of all tho Senate Committees. Bourne is the only Oregon Senator over a member of this committee. Do you want to lose this nrestigo by sending a new man to Washington? Member of tho Commltteo on Railroads and on Transportation Routes to tho Seaboard. Dur ng 1907. 1908 and 1909. when Oregon had no member on the Senate Commltteo on Commerce, tho Rivers and Har bors Bill carried only tho ordin ary appropriations for Oregon projects. Those appropriations would have been received even if Oregon had had no represen tatives in cither house of C6n gress. No new projects wero re cognized. In 1909 Senator Bourne became a member oi the Commerce Committee, and tho result is shown in tho next thrco Rivers and Harbors Bills, when Mr. Bourne had tho fol lowing amendments added in tho Senate passed: Coou llo R ver. $28,000: S us- luw River, $381,000; Oregoit City Locks, $300,000: Increase for Columbia and Willamette Rivers, $200,000; Dredges for 30 foot channel in Columbia, $azo,WU.

Nehu- lem project, $-110,15; Official re cognition of 80 ft, channel pro ject by increase of appropria tion, $d5,uuu; Oregon Slough, in North Portland Harbor, $50,000: Celilo Appropriation increased to $700,000. Bourne secured S500.00U for postoflice sito in Portland. The iiourne bill appropriating $1,000,000 for a postoflice build ing for Portland passed the ben- ate. The Bourne bill appropriating $250,000 for tho relief of Sher man County settlers, who lost their homes through false gov ernment titles, has passed the Senate twice. No other senator has been able to get this bill through the Senate, although it has been tried for years, The Bourne bill appropriating $187,000 for tho Astoria public building passed tho Senate. The Bourne bill appropriating $100,000 for the Corvallis public building passed the Senate. The Bourne bill annronriatincr $500,000 for a Federal fish hatch- ery on uie uuiurnuiu pasaeu vuu Senate twice. It has been :fav- orably reported by the House, and may become a law at next session. Bourne secured recognition of the North jetty, which means forty feet of water on the Colum bia bar, Bourne secured approval of Tillamook Bay project, after others had been working for years without success. The Bourne amendment appro priating $10,000 for preliminary work on the Alt. Hood Wagon Road passed. This money was spent during the summer of 1911? The Bourne amendment appro priating $50, 000 for improvement of Crater Lake National Park become a law and recognizes a project requiring a total of $642, 000. (Continued page 3) The first and foremost hint is use Wesson's cooking oil (for sale at local stores; instead of tho much more expensive olive oil, or butter, either. Wesson's oil will be relished even by those who dislike olive oil. Hint num ber two, use lemon juice insteud of vinegar. Waldorf Salad Equal parts of apple and chopped celery with a few nut meats CQmpose this fa mous salad. Cold sliced potato, haril boiled egg and either celery .cucumber or cabbage with either boiled dressing or mayonnaise, makes u very tasty salad. Apples and nuts chopped sepa rately and then tossed lightly to gether with sweetened cream are delicious. Bulimias and nuts ure equally tasty. About ono part, nuts to two parts of fruit. Here is the recipe for a very delicious salad dressing made without oil and warranted to keep a long time. Cream to gether one even tablespoonful mustard, one of sugar, and a rounded tablespoonful of butter. Add to this three eggs beaten very stiff, und oho cup of milk. Mix thoroughly und then stir in slowly one half cup of good vine gar. Cook in douolo holler, (or in a dish set inside another of boiling water), stirring constant ly until thickened. Stir fre quently until cold; keep in a glass jar in a cold place. For most salads this dressing will be nicest thinned one half with whipped cream. Equal purts of carrots und wal nuts make a splendid salad. Put tho carrots and nut meat through the food chopper, using the fin est cutter (not the one used for peanut butter). Uso any good boiled dressing. Here is n delicious dressing: Raw cauliilower cut fine, some chopped init meats, split peas soaked for threo or four hours with frequent changing of wa ter; small onion, two or three tomatoes. Dressing: oil, Bait and sugar beaten with quite a strong dash of Tobasco sauce, and last, the juice of one smull lemon; then pour over salad and let stand for several hours boforo UBing. ' With bread and butter this is hearty enough for u full luncheon. Another good cooked dressing that keeps well is as follows: Put ono half cup of milk into a double boiler; separate three eggs; beat tho whites to a stilf froth, and then add gradually tho yelks. Pour into this tho hot milk, return tho whole to tho fire and cook over hot water, beating constantly until smooth and thickened: take from tho fire, add a teaspoonful of salt, a suit spoonful of white pepper, a dash of red pepper, und then gradual ly mix in 4 tablespoontuls ot Wesson salad oil. and one table spoonful of lemon juice or tarra- gan vinegar. If tho dressing is too thick thin with a little lemon juice. Bo sure to season your salad with salt, pepper and a lit tle lemon juico beloro adding this dressing, as it is very deli cate in flavor. You can uso the dressing for every kind of salad. Here is a recipe for "r rench" dressing: One part of vinegar or lemon.2 parts of oil beaten to gether with salt and pepper to taste, and a little boiled dressing added last. A fine apple salad ismado with a layer of finely sliced apple, a layer of celery cut fine, which has previously been boiled 10 or 15 minutes in salted water; a layer of sliced olives, some grat ed cocoanut; top with a few pine nuts. Mayonnaise over all. What Teddy Says "Senator Bourne has rendered a service of which his constitu ents at home are hardly aware. He has brought vividly before the people of the United States tho facts connected with Ore gon's effort to make her govern ment really a government of the people, and the way the experi ment has actually worked, and there are many of we outsiders who owe Senator Bourne a very real debt of obligation for what he has done in familiarizing us with the actual workings of what you have experimented with, at tempted and done here in Ore gon; and I wish to state my obli gation to him for that work, and also the obligation that all of us everywhere feel toward Oregon for what it has done in pioneer ing along these lines." Theo dore Roosevelt in speech at Mult nomah Hotel, Sept. 11, 1912. To the peoplo of St. Johns and vicinity: I hereby wish to.make my position clear in endorsing Dr. Biersdorf for the office of County Coroner. I am not a pol itician, just an every day citizen und tax puyer of Multnomah county, who 1ms invested my time und money in St. Johns for the purpose of making nn honest living and supplying this city with nn uptodnte undertaking establishment a long felt need. My efforts have been appreciat ed, and I thank you. And for theso reasons I appeal to you to suppbrtthis cundidute who is a clean, honest man, worthy of tho office; but what is pf most vital interest to all of us.thut if elect ed he will be tho Coroner, noth ing more or less, und when the duties of his office hnyc been performed ho will not dictate to you or I what shall bo done with tho body of our loved one. Ono point I wntit to make cleur. the County Coroner's office is established for tho purpose of investigating all mysterious or violent deaths of any nature that occur within its boundaries, to ascertain if u crime bus been committed. If there is evidence of a crime, then tho Coroner has full power to act in whatever manner seems to him best, but if he finds no evidence of crime, then his duty ceases, and ho has no more right than 1 have to tell you that your loved one's re mains must be taken to Portland or any other place. It is the fnmily's right to suy whether or not they want their dead loft in their own homes. I have been compelled to tako this stand be cause of pust experience with tho firm of Dunning & McEntec, deputy coroners under Norden. These men have come into our city and bluffed and bull dozed our people, when they wero half crazed with griof und distress, into believing thoy had tho right to remove to Portland the re mains of any ono who had mot with violent death, whether an inquest was necessary or not, thus working a hardship on the relatives, and making it impos sible for anybody to maintain a first class undertaking place in your city, if this is to continue. I understand if Dr. Slocum is elected Dunning & McEntec will continue to manage the Coro ner's office. So I appeal to you to vote for Dr. Biersdorf and u public morgue, ami prevent any graft in the Coroner's office. A. II. Blackburn, of Blackburn, Chambers & Lowry. i'illll u.lvt. A Fine Success Tho Gray Company, which fur nished the first number of tho Lyceum Course, gave an enter tainment in the auditorium of tho High School building last Friday evening. Judging from tho vociferous and super-abundance of applause that greeted each number, it must havo given general satisfaction. Tho ap plause, as a matter of fact, was so persistent as to almost embar rass the entertainers. Tho lady violinist was particularly fine, and she was recalled time and again. Tho lady who presided at the piano performed a number of selections that wero most diffi cult, and while the layman mind could scarcely grasp or realize the high class music that must havo been in tho selections, yet all could not help but admire the various movements of the fingers involved in tho renditions, The elocutionist was fur above the average, and her selections were most pleasing. The vocalist is also entitled to much credit for the part she took in tho enter tainment. While her selections were difficult and called fora wide range of voice.it did not surpass her ability. Her voice and facial expressions were both most cap tivating. Those who pnjoy high class music could not help but feel highly gratified with the renderings. Give your wife a holiday, and take dinner on the day of elec tion, November 5th, both noon and evening, with tho Ladies' Aid of the Methodist church. Tables will bo laden with upto date dishes in the Holbrook building. First class lunches will be carried to reasonable dis tances when orderetl. Chicken pie in the evening. Richard Montgue would make ah ideal State Senator.- -Don't forget to cast your ballot for him. S. C. CooK Explains 348 Your oft repented advice, when in doubt vote No, is sound. With your permission we will try to explain to tho voters of the state Nos. 348-349 on tho bal lot this year und the reason for placing the bill on tho ballot. Turn to pagelGl of tho pamphlet sent out to each registered voter and read: A bill for an act providing.for the consolation of contiguous in corporated cities and towns le- f-nlizing consolidations horoto oro attempted and providing a J method for the creutlon und or (ganizution of new counties. 'Ml Yes; 349. No. The reason for putting this bill on tho ballot by initintivo petition follows: In 1900 the suite constitution was amended, taking from the Lcgislnturo tho nuthority to grant municipal charters,und conferred this pow er on the voters of proposed mu nicipalities. The voters could enact their own chnrtor. amend it, but (and right hero the trou ble came in) could not repeal it. They could create a city und pro vide it with n churterand amend it at pleasure, but could not re peal it. They could catch the bear, but could not let it go. In 1910 the voters of SU Johns voted to nnnex tho City of St. Johns to tho City of Portland. under the provisions of a special uctoftho Legislnturo of 1893. Dissatisfied parties, however, brought an action at iaw to pre vent tho consolidation of St. Johns and Portland, and the Su preme Court-of the Btuto decided that tho consolidation could not be made, fpr tho reason that when tho majority of the voters of St. Johns voted to annex to Portland, it amounted to a vote to repeal tho charter of tho City of St.Jolins, which tho court held they did not hnvo tho authority to do: that there was no way to consolidate two cities except by a vote of the electors of tho en tire state; that tho Legislature had been deprived of the power to repeal the city charter.and the voters of the municipality never had been given tho power to re peal their own charter. Conse quently an appeal to tho voters of tho entire stato was tho only remedy. Also Inst year tho two c tics of Seaside and West Seaside voted by an unanimous voto to consol idate, and the sume question camo ui. Ul course, if they consolidated, one of tho city churters would have to go out of existence, and by tho decision of the Supremo Court this could not bo done. As to tho organization of new counties, tho voter will remember that there wore olght initiated bills on the 1910 ballot for the formation of new counties by voto of tho whole state und they wero all doleuted. Why; Be cause tho majority of tho voters of tho stato had no interest, und necessarily could hnvo none, in tho questions. Whut could be more absurd than to usk or allow the voters of Multnomah County to voto on tho question of divid ing Lane County? Or tho voters of Douglus County to voto on the division ot Clackumus County Or what possible interest can the voters of Pendleton havo in tho question of the consolidation of St. Johns and Portland? Or the voters of Roseburg in the question of tho union of Seaside and West Seaside? Yet under tho existing uws. they would be called on to vote on tho questions. As to tho effect of tho enacting of this bill: First, notico that section 3 of this bill confirms certain at tempted consolidations of cities under title 26 of Lord's Oregon laws. This section would only apply to Seaside and West Sea side, which attempted to consol idate lust year, but would not confirm the attempt of St. Johns to unite with Portland, that at tempt having been made under a special act of the Legislature granting to the City of Portland a charter. Tho general result of the enactment of this bill will be to confer on municipal corpora tions (cities, and towns) the au thority to consolidate by a ma jority vote of the electors of each city, without having to bother the whole state. Likewise pro vision is made for Hie creation of new counties by a majority vote of the people that will have to support tho new county after it is organized. If such a bill as this had been in force in 1910 there would havo been eight fewer measures on the ballot and two fewer on the ballot this year. This bill is intended to correct a deficiency in the 190(5 It is interesting to note what the alumni of James John High are doing. Of the earlier classes, Howard and Anna Brico are fair ly launched in the business world. Arthur Clark is attend ing O. A. C. Ruth Crouch is teachmgschool m East St.Johns.

We were very glad to huve Miss Ethel Coupe with us ugnin. After nn inspection of tho region nround Benverton, Ethel decided that tho atmosphere of St. Johns is more salubrious. She finds, also, that time in tho James John High is hard to recover. Tho girls' and boys' basket ball teams are out practicing.and prospects are lino for excellent teams. The girls nro working hard und there is plenty of en couraging talent. Tho boys havo lino prospects: about fifteen enn- dldutes for positions aro out. Tho rhetorical divisions aro get ting ready to give programs. Ono division has selected the name of Witangumoot. The English History cluss bus a case of ''grand larceny" to show tho workings of the modem jury sys tem. Sheriff, und lawyers for defense und prosecution are working hard. The first entertainment of the Lyceum Course, given Inst Fri day night, was attended by a large and apnrecintivo audience. Tho program wns varied enough to suit the tastes of every ono. This was shown by tho enthusi astic applause through tho even ing. J ho members of tho com pany wero most generous in their responso to encore. Although wo wore very well pleased with it all, the violinist, perhaps, put tho others a little in tho back ground. She is certainly a great artist and cut till sorts of capers with the violin. The soloist, pi anist and elocutionist were very good, und to tho music loving people of St. Johns the concert was certainly a trout. What LaFoliette Says In his speech ut Portland, Sen ator La Follette said of Senator Bourne: "I want to say a word to you about your United States Senator. I have been warned. I huve boon told this may lose mo some votos, but I am going to speak just the sumo. Jona than Bourne stands today in ev ery stato in this Union as tho Representative of populur gov ernment, Ho bus curried the message of Oregon to almost ev ery fireside of ovory home. In all the history of the state, Ore gon has never been given the Nutionnl reputation that Jona than Bourne has given it since ho has been your Senator. I un derstand there has been a good deal of criticism because he did not come homo last summer. I happen to know what Bourne was doing, because I did not go home to Wisconsin myself, and remained in Washington to work. I want to tell you thut any man who stays in Washington in tho sticky summer months is sacri ficing himself to a cause. Mr. Bourne stayed to work out the question of the parcels post. He has not ulwuys voted as I have voted. Ho did not vote as I vot ed on the tariff bill." amendment, and with such ques tions as consolidation of contig uous cities and tho organization of new counties purely local affairs, to be regulated by a ma jority vote of the resident voters in the cities or district affected. Wo hopo we havo made it cleur enough so there can bo no doubt in this case and feel justified in hoping each voter will voto 848 Yes und thus round out the Ore gon principle of homo rule. S. C.
