TO SHIP BOXES EAST
Manufacturers Will Form
Strong Combination.
a
GREAT DEMAND FOR THE PRODUCT
Scarcity of Bor Material ia the East
"Will Create a Great Market for
"Western Spruce.
S. J. Cobb, secretary of the Standard
Box Factory, of -the East Side, was seen
yesterday at his borne at 171 East Four
teenth street, by an Oregonlan reporter,
and gave a statement of the purposes of
the Pacific Northwest Box Association to
pnter the Eastern markets 'with Pacific
snooks. Mr. Cobb Is a trustee of the
Association, has been in the manufactur
ing: business in Portland for a number
of years, and is secretary of the Standard
Box Company. He, therefore, is compe
tent to speak advisedly on the subject.
The association is not a trust," said
Mr. Cobb, "but is a sort of combine of
the factories of Oregon and "Washington
to introduce more generally our products
Into the Eastern markets than they havo
been in the past This association was
organized September 11, and five directors
were elected, representing the large fac
tories of this state and "Washington, and
were as near as I can now recall: "W. F.
McGregor, of Astoria; S. J. Cobb, of Fort
land; "W. F. Harris, Hoqulam, Gray's Har
bor; Mr. Niece, of Seattle; also a repre
sentative from Spokane, whose name Is
out of my mind at present.
"The association was formed so there
would be concert of action. No one fac
tory alone deemed it prudent to. send a.
representative East to investigate the
markets and take steps to secure sales,
.tout all the factories have joined together
to carry the burden of the movement In
a "way that will be fair and satisfactory
to all concerned. As stated in the dis
patch from Astoria in this morning's Ore
gonlan, the association will meet in Ta
com& next "Wednesday to select a suit
able representative. It is my judgment
43iat a man "thoroughly familiar with
the box business in the Northwest should
fee chosen as such representative, as much
trill .depend on Ills efforts. He will visit
the "business centers of the Eastern States
and ascertain the conditions pertaining to
the box business. In the East box tim
ber 2ias become scarce, and anything is
used. Cotton-wood, bass, gum and pine
Is employed, but I am informed that this
source nas become scarce, and the East
'will soon have to look to the "West for its
box supplies.
"Here in the Northwest we use spruce
exclusively in the manufacture of our
.boxes, and It makes the very finest boxes
to the world. Wo have made some ship
ments to the East of our produot, and so
the people there have some Idea of the
superiority of the "Western product, and
I doubt if there be anv difficulty in in
troducing our boxes there in large quan
tities. Of course, It will depend on the
consideration -we receive from the rail
ways in the way of freight rates. They
will benefit es well as the factories if a
largo Eastern market be built up for the
Pacific Northwest factories. I believe it
4s a good movement, and it has been
begun in the right spirit.
"Very few people have any idea of the
magnitude of the box manufacturing husl
ness even on Oils Coast. In the single
factory of the East Side we are using
6,000,000 feet -of lumber this year, an in
crease of about 1,000,000 over what was
consumed last year. I presume other fac
tories in the Pacific Northwest have been
doing as -well, but we here in Portland
Jhave the advantage of such places as
Gray's Harbor by having a large home
market. The demand is from every di
rectionup the "Willamette and up the
little inlets tributary, and up the Colum
bia River. An Eastern market will help
the outside factories, which do nothave
this home market as re have. "We have
been helped by the Government demand
for cases for shipping supplies to Ma
nila. Only recently -we supplied 2000 cases
to the Government, and another Is for
4000 cases for California, in which to ship
potatoes to Manila. This shows the de
velopment of the box business here I
have just been looking over the statistics
of timber used in the manufacture of
boxes, and I find the amount is astonish
ing. The business has bscome one of the
greatest consumers of timber In this
country, and the Pacific Northwest con
tains the remaining supplv of '-timber. If
we can introduce our product in the East
along1 tbe lines marked out by the asso
ciation, Oregon and "Washington will bene
fit very largely. Indeed."
A Voice From Albany.
ALBANY, Or., Oct. 27. (To the Editor.)
In a recent editorial, you spoke of this
being an educational campaign. The
writor Is a reader, mainly, of Republi
can papers, including The Daily Oregonlan
and Harper's "Weekly, and if the Demo
cratic papers are following the lines of
the stump speakers on both sides, any
education must be in the line of artful
dodging. Mr. Bryan dodges the sliver is
sue, which even he must see is a thing
of the past. Mr. Roosevelt dodges the
trust issue by calling the Democratic
party another, as If two wrongs made a
right. Mr. Hanna -dodges and says there
are no trusts. A campaign which de
pends on indirection to so great an ex
teat oabotb, side, is not very inspiring.

to a thinking' man. TheVRepubllcan can
didate is open to Mr. Bryan's rather un
gentlemanly charge of having been on all
sides of every Question, and Mr. Bryan
sticks to 16 to in the face of the enor
mous production of gold, the passage of
years and the opposition of the whole
world outside a email following in this
country, for he can. hardly count even a
majority of his own party as in its favor.
It is 'legitimate for the Republican party
to show this, but when they dodge the
other issues, belittle the danger of great
consolidation of "wealth in control of
trade, they show that they have no real
remedy to offer or that they do not wish
to do so. Mr. Bryan's propositions are
fair, but evidently not fully effective.
The Republicans offer none, or say with
the brilliant Governor of this state, the
trusts will compete with each other and
destroy each other, or with the equally
brilliant National chairman, there are no
trusts. As to the question of imperialism,
there is an immense amount of rot put
out by the Democrats, but there has
been the opening given by the Porto
Rican tariff, the shilly-shally conduct In
the Philippines, and the evident desire to
take things as they come, rather than
to forecast and be prepared for what
must come. I am no believer in the
philosophy, of two evils take the least.
If the Republican ptrty wins this time,
as I have not the slightest doubt it will,
it should be the constant effort of the
true men of the party to put it on lines
of true statesmanship again.
PROTEST FROM CONGREGATION
Serious Objection to Dr. McLean's
Leaving His Pastorate.
There will be a congregational meet
ing of the Third Presbyterian Church next
Thursday evening to consider the call the
pastor. Dr. McLean, has received to go to
Cuba. The church is a unit against
their pastor leaving, and la very
much concerned over the prospect. Fri
day night next a special meeting of the
Portland Presbytery will be held In the
First Church to consider the matter. At
that time the commissioners of the Third
Church will be on baud with their pro
test. It may be said in this connection that
no question of late years has come Up in
Portland Presbyterian circles of so great
interest. Owing to the unanimous protest
from the Third Church, the presbytery
hesitates about taking action in the mat
ter. The members of the Third Church
are urging that if Dr. McLean leaves the
church it "will receive a serious back
set, and that the proposals to rebuild
tho edifice, now under consideration, will
at once fall to the ground, and through
discouragement its general work languish.
On the other hand, the call for Dr. Mc
Lean to enter the mission field has very
powerful baeklnsr He spent a. number of
years In South America and there ac
quired a very thorough knowledge of the
Spanish language and Spanish character.
Among all the Presbyterian ministers in
this country, he is conceded to be the
best fitted for tho Cuban post. He iiaB
been back from South America about 11
years, but during that time has kept up
his Spanish studies, and besides his Span
ish education, which is thoroughly prac
tical, Dr. McLean is easily among the
ablest Presbyterian ministers on this
Coast in all lines. The situation Is per
plexlrig to him, to the Third Church and
to the presbytery. He has accepted the
call, subject to tho actionof his church
and the Portland Presbytery. The pbst
of superintendent of missions In Cuba Is a
very Important one and can only be filled
by one specially equipped. A church is
to be built at Havana and missions are
to be established throughout the Islands.
Schools will also be opened. All this
work will be under the general super
vision of Dr. McLean if he goes there.
LOGGERS ON A VACATION.
Enjoying Life in Totto "While the
"Woods Are Damp.
A larjge number of hands from the
logging- camps of the Lower Columbia are
now "visiting up In Portland, having gotten
tired of the dampness of the deep woods.
Timber-fellers, rigging-rustlers, hook
tenders and teamsters seem to be enjoy
ing a brief period of rest and recreation
whllo watching: the gentle patter of the
rain on the asphalt pavements. Some
loggers prefer to try their hands at quartz
mining in Eastern Oregon during the
"Winter, as they can work underground
whether the outside air is charged with
rain or snow. One of them, who is pre
paring to change his occupation in this
way, said a, logger could not expect to
make more than board In the rainy sea
son, as there are many days when the
woods get too wet and muddy, and so
the men prefer to stay in camps, where
their board bills go right on regardless
of weather. This Is especially the case
where horses or oxen are used Instead of
d6rikey engines and railroad tracks. In
hauling logs down the hillsides to the
streams below.
"A man gets so muddy that his best
friend would not know him," he said,
"and the animals founder In the deep
slush at every point. The big logs glide
over the muddy ground in good shape;
in fact, with greater ease than in dry
weather, but it's heavy work on men.
"Wages in logging camps range from 540
to 5G0 and board In -the Summer time,
and men who practice economy can easily
save enough to keep them over "Winter In
Portland, but the majority of them pre
fer to have a short period of good time,
and so are soon compelled to seek the
logging camps again."

News of His Death Ends Suspense of
Two Years Reward Money to
Be Returned.
The dispatch from Manila published in
The Oregonlan yesterday mornln?:, In re
gard to the fate of young Arthur "Ven
vllle, at the hands of Filipinos, has put
an end to the hopes of Portland people
who expected his return home alive.
Young Venvllle's mother, Mrs. H.
Mash, res-ides In Sellwood, and the doubt
which has hung over the fate of her son
has caused her a great deal of anguish.
It -was thought last Summer that tho
Filipinos were holding young VenvlHe for
a ransom, and the sum of $262 was sub
scribed here by sympathizing friends and
forwarded by Lieutenant A. N. "Wood to
General MacArthur, at Manila, for this
purpose. This sum jn gold would have
made $500 "Mex," and was thought ample
for the purpose of obtaining the young
man's liberty. General MacArthur has
not yet acknowledged the receipt of the
money, though It was sent him In the
latter part of August. The fund, how
ever, will probably be returned to thl3
city and turned over to Mrs. Mash for
the use of herself and two sisters of the
lost boy.
Young "Venville was in the naval service
aboard the Yorktown, two years' ago, and,
in company with Lieutenant Gillmore's
party, landed at Baler, on the ''cost of
Northern Luzon. The whole party was
captured by the natives and "Venville, It
was thought, was wounded in the ankle
and left to his fate, becoming a prisoner
at Baler, while the others of the party
were taken into -the interior.
According to yesterday's dispatch, the
Filipino Captain Novlclo, who Is sentenced
to death by, the American authorities for
burying a seaman named McDonald alive,
also caused the death of young Venville
by delivering-him Into the- hands of the
Igorotes, who lured the young man into
the woods and murdered him.
All Records Broken.
New York Evening Post.
When flatly asked, last week; what his
purpose as President would be In regard
to the currency, Mr. Brjan replied that
he would answer questions In his own
way, and presumed that the opposing
party would do the same. He has pretty
well demonstrated what his own way Is.
To the question, Will he pay the public
obligations In depreciated money? he
answers that his opponents put the man
below the dollar. To the question, Does
he stand on his own financial declara
tions of 1896? he answers that the Repub
licans sent a bimetallic commission to Eu
rope. To the question, Does he propose,
as President, to overthrow at once Jt.he
gold sandard?he'' answers that the Porto
Rican law sets, up a double standard of
citizenship. This kind of pettifogging is
vouchsafed in a speech beginning w,lth
the assertion that the Bryan party
"shows its honesty by stating what It be
lieves ana telling the people what it 'will
do." - - f
It is now plain enough that Bryan, on
this question, simply dares not say In the
East what he believes, and that he relies,
In a shifty way, on the plea of his friends
that, bad as his financial purposes and

COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"The Man Front Mexico."
One of the most pronounced successes
in tho realm of farce, -will be seen at the
Marquam Grand on Tuesday and Wednes
day, October 31. It Is "The Man From
Mexico," which is now In the third season
of triumph. Tho farce has passed Into
the hands of the Broadhurst Bros , who
have already achieved an international
reputation as farce producers. It Is their
purpose to present the farce this season
with a thoroughly competent cast, Includ
ing George C. Boniface, Jr., Gus Blxley,
F, W. Bernard, M.' X. Heckert, D. H.
Landon, Will H. Vedder, Arthur Vlllars,
D. W. Slegrlst, Robert Dlshon, Helen
Balrd, Adeline Mann, Agnes Burke and
Mildred Keith, and lavish scenic embel
lishments "The Man From Mexico" is a
fnnny farce. The situations are of that
happy mixture of Impossibility and ab
surdity which blend well. The complica
tions which arise are not forced, and
the dialogue is witty and happily con
structed. The dramatis personae consists
of the unhappy" Flzhew, 3ils over-anxious
friend, s Majors, a crazy German artlsta
"tough" jailer, ar-effete warden, two love
sick young men and the same number of
maidens, a shrewd 'waiting maid, an Ital
ian convict, who inspires mutiny among
the other prisoners, and the bewitching
Mrs. Fitzhew. They all lend a helping
hand to spread the smiles like syrup in a

BEST EXHIBIT OF ALL
OOLIiEOOTOir OF PICTURES AT ORE
GON CAMERA CLUBROOMS.
Will Be Open to the Public Tills
Week Only Artistic Pictures
Huns Up
Lovers of art in any and 'every form,
and especially the adopts of camera
craft, will appreciate the 'opportunity af
forded by the opening of the sixth an
nual print exhibition of the Oregon Cam
era Club this evening. After this formal
opening the clubrooms in The Oregonlan
building will be thrown open dally to
visitors from 2 to -5 P. M., and from 7 to
10 P. M., during the present week. Tho
exhibit this year far surpasses any
other in the history of tho club, both: in
execution and In choice of subjects.
Among the photographs hung on the
walls, mounted and finished In the most
tasteful fashion, will be found beautiful
glimpses of Oregon scenes, quiet, peaceful
streams, shadowy vistas ,ln the woods,
turbulent waterfalls, snowy mountain
peaks in mornlnsr haze or the bright sun
light, and all kinds of novel studies from
well-posed groups and perfect portraits
to studies In caricature. The exhibit no
longer contains hit or miss" snapshots,
but J all the work exhibited show3 a
striving toward the best effect, and is
of'unlformly high character.
"Especially Is this true in the mounting
and finishing. Fine negatives have al
ways abounded, . but the greatest Im
provement this year Is 'to bo noted In
the beautiful tones obtained by careful
workmanship In tho later processes, and
once a good print Is obtained it Is mount
ed on artistic and harmfinlous mats
that bring out all that there to in the
delicate detail of the photograph. Novel
effects have been secured injnany prints.
Beautiful sunsets, twilight and day
break scenes abound, and the strong con
trasts of light and shade, the misty
hues of morning and the fading- rays ot
twilight are faithfully reproduced, ' but
yet with the artist's touch.
All the exhibits are tastertitly arranged
and grouped, and hung so-that all re
ceive a good, clear light. Promlnpn
among them are those of Harry G. Smith,
vice-president of the Oregon Camera Club,
and winner of the Judd cup for the best
general collection of six pictures These
present 'various subjects, all of which are
successfully treated. Perhaps the most
striking Is "The Old Oaks at Ross Isl
and," with its rich effect in sepia and
beautiful, soft tones, catching the beauti
ful foliage of the trees as they over
hang the river bank. One of the best Is
"Safe," showing the well-posed flgureT ot
a ragged youngster sleeping in a corner,
guarded over by a faithful- dog, who
seems to glory in his responsibility, . "XJie
Last Glow" is a sunset on the Columbia,
with strong light and shadow contrasts
and fine cloud effects. The other views
are equally meritorious.
The most striking photograph In the
exhibit Is "Stranded," by F. A. Shogien,
showing the. ship Glenmorag in the back
ground, while In the foreground Is most
effectively posed the dark figure of n
woman gazing seaward at a gathering
storm. The bleakness and desolation' of
the ' scene is brought out strongly, ana
the glaring seashore , faithfully repro
duced. This won for Mr. Shogren the
Excelsior cup offered for tho be3t land
scape containing clouds and waer, and
all the requirements for technique, art
and composition were fulfilled In this dar
ing and successful piece of photography.
" The clubrooms ,j(ire being handsomely
decorated for this evening's reception to
the public, and dally during the week
