A commercial article in today's Port

Portland led all other ports in the Uni

The month's shipments, as compiled by

show a gain for Portland of over 25 per
cent, as comnared with the same month
last year. Puget Sound Bhows a gain of
12 per cent, and ban trancisco a gain
of less than 10 per cent.- Coming at a
time when rival ports are making so
much fuss over Portland's "declining"
wheat trade, the government figures
make a very pleasing showing.

Fusion, decided there would be no
affiliation between the pop

strong faction, led by ex-Congresstnan

of the old-time populists to defeat this
plan. The meeting was a lively fight
throughout. Majority and minority re

resolutions, on the subject of fusion.

Philippine tariff bill, made serious
reflections on the honor of hie colleague,
McLaurin. In brief, be charged that
his vote in support of the ratification ol

through the exercise of improper influ
ences. McLaurin was not in the cham

speech. Pale as ashes, McLauren rose
to addreis the senate, speaking to a

Wanted to Buy an Island.
There is a pretty story in connection
with the series of articles which Helen
Keller, the wonderful blind girl, lit a
written for The Ladies' Home Journal,
telling about hei own life from intancy
t. ii,u nmspnt. Hav. She alwavs has
shrunk from the publicity whic 1 follows
successful literary wor, anu it was wnn
grat difficulty that Bhe was persuaded
to take up the task of preparing her au
tobiography, one nau, nuwever, m v
her heart on owning an island in nan
fax harbor for a summer home, and in a
Bpirit of fun the editor oi ine journal or
fered to buy it for her, or to provide the
means to oiiy it. When the work of
writing appeared especially irksome Miss
Keller was reminded of her desire to be
come a land-holder, and it spurred her
on. Just before Christmas she com
pleted the first chapter of her marvel
ous story ; and on Christmas morning
aha vora ivad from her Dublishers a check
for a good round sum. Her delight may
be imagined, for this was the first of any
account which she had ever earned. "It
is a fairy, tale come true," she said.
Whether she will carry out her plan to
buy the island remains to be seen.
