. 1 s THE MORTSTTTO OTJEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY,, OCTOBER 16, 19011-, ION MEN QUIT WORK XONGSHOREMEX DEMAND RECOG NITION FROM STEVEDORES. Have Established Headquarters, From "Which, lien. ainst Be Em ployed So Danger of TIe-tJp. The hitch in the relations between the general longshore workers and the steve dores on the -water .front was unchanged yesterday. No one admits that a -strike is in progress nor that there is any mis understanding. It is said by each side that the other is quite well aware of the precise situation and of the intentions of the opposition. One of the adverse developments of the trouble is the sailing away of the steamship Alberta from As toria. The Alberta arrived at Astoria Monday evening and yesterday morning sailed out again, her charterers evidently fceing timorous about a strike. Should tho trouble evolve into a formidable dispute. It Is probable that other ships on their way to this port will have their destina tion changed either to Puget Sound or to San Francisco. A situation therefore, serious enough to cause apprehension for the commer cial interests of the city lias shaped it self. But from present -indications no le-np -of shipping is likely to occur, loading of vessels with nonunion men went forward yesterday in spite of the idleness of the organized longshoremen. Four crews were at work. The Grain handlers' Union is closely affiliated -with that of the longshoremen, and in sym pathy with it Yesterday a crew of gralnhandlers, members of the ' union, quit work at Irving dock, refusing to co operate with the nonunion longshoremen on the ship BourbakL Delay in loading 'the vessel was short, however, and in a SIttle while those who had left work were replaced with other men. No disposition to do violence has been shown. The union men deny that a strike exists. Perhaps technically it does not, but actually it does, since the union forces refuse to go to work until their terms are accepted. The union comprises about 250 men. It claims all the skilled longshoremen of the water front, although four nonunion crews were working yesterday and mak ing good progress. Both sides are pro ceeding cautiously, endeavoring to pre vent an open rupture. So far the busi ness interests of the city do not seem to fce in jeopardy, but it is Tecognlzed that the trouble will have to be handled gin gerly. The recent protracted tie-up at fian Francisco is up before the imagina tion of 'the disputants and admonishes them against radical methods. The long shoremen perhaps appreciate the gravity of the situation, but broadly hint that they are willing to resort to extremities to "win their point the recognition of their union. The Root of the Trouble. The root of the trouble is quite plain. It is in fact recognition of the Long shoremen's Union. The means employed fry the union are somewhat novel. It in sists that stevedores shall engage long shoremen at the union headquarters on Front street, between Burnslde and Couch. Nowhere else in the city will 'workers be found, and unless stevedores are willing to recognize these headquar ters and comply with the mandate, no union longshoremen will respond. These headquarters were but recently estab lished. The pretext of the union for its action is that it desires to remove its jnea Irom the temptations and vices of Burnslde 'street, between Second and Third, the hitherto appointed meeting place for longshoremen who want work. It has been customary for foremen of the stevedores to engage longshoremen here between the hours of 5:30 and 9 A. M. and 41 A. M. and 2 P. M. The moral effect on the men who spend the day about the saloons there Is said to be bad. It is quite well understood tha this pretext is a garment for the one purpose of the union, .namely, to get recognition for the union. The pretext is a worthy one, but the union will perhaps have a hard time to keep its members at headquarters away from the Burnslde-street saloons if the exam ple of yesterday was a fair one. Over 100 union longshoremen loitered about the old places, whereas the new headquarters eeveral blocks away from the saloon evil were nearly deserted. It was explained by the president of the union, Phil Car rol, that this circumstance was only na tural, since no men were engaged for work after 2 o'clock and that the mem bers of the union after that hour in dulged in 'social pleasures. In regard to the position of the union Mr. Carrol said: Stand of the Union. "We want no trouble and will avoid it if we can. But we are not going to be hluffed. "We are contending for principle, and are determined to assert that princi ple Our union must be recognized, and in equity should be. "We have no complaint to make about wages, nor are we engaged Jn a strike. If our services are needed there is only one place where they may be had and that is at our headquarters. JCo man will go to work unless he is engaged there. We have a strong organ ization of 250 members. All longshoremen of any account are members of it. Long shoremen who are not are not skilled in the work, and it is poor economy for stevedores to invest in their services. Our union controls the loading of ships at Portland, .both Jby its own strength and toy its close relationship Tvith the steam boat longshoremen and the Gralnhandlers X'nlon. It is not much that we ask, only recognition of "the union. If it is not given to us we are ready to win It." Recognition Is Demanded. A. Madsen, another prominent leader of the union," said: "Our pay of 50 cents per hour and 75 cents per hour overtime Is satisfactory to us. But something else, vital to the principles of unionism, is not satisfactory. 3. mean the vant of recognition for our union. The firm of Brown & McCabe has shown bad faith in this matter. Captain iBrown promised us recognition in so many words, and now has gone back on his word. He said he would give us the pref erence in employment of men, and now he has backed away from his promise. "We are entitled to this preference. We have worked for Captain Brown a long time. Let me give you a pertinent per sonal illustration. Suppose that you, an old employe of the paper you represent, Were given a place inferior to new men; nvould you like it? This illustration shows nvhere we stand. We deserve this recog nition and preference. Our aim is to force nothing unjust upon Brown & Mc Cabe. If they really knew it, their in terests are entirely 'safe in the justice of our principles. Our union alms to be just to employers, but it also insists upon the rights of its 'members. Its object is not to crowd out nonunion men. Our or ganization can stand by Itself -without that. But it must Insist upon recogni tion. A Seeming Inconsistency. The union was organized last August. TJp to that time there had been none for lour years. The existing good wages are not the product of unionism. Further more, the members of the union are most ly the same men who four years ago aided in the annihilation of the striking union which at that time died in the struggle. As Mr. Madsen yesterday ad mitted, only 2 or 3 per cent of the mem bers of the old union are in the new. It is charged against the new union that Its members are inconsistent; that they who lought the union four years ago and were then "scabs" are now union men them selves and the other fellows are the "scabs." It is said in reply that the old union was a local one, organized on nar row principles, while the new union is organized on a National basis, and that this Is a vital difference, and enough to explal nthe Teason of the present conten tion. Captain Brown declares that he is able to run his own business and to deal fairly with his employes without the interfer ence -of a union. As evidence, he adduces the wages of 50 cents per hour, which were not exacted by a union, but given freely by the stevedores. He said: "The longshoremen declare that I con sented to recognize their union. I recog nize a union man? Of course I will; that is, when he works. I don't care whether he belpngs to a union or not, but I do care whether he works. If "he attends to business, I will recognize him, and he may belong to all the unions on earth. But I reserve the right to hire what men I choose and where I choose. When I need men I will pick them out myself, and nobody shall do It for me. I am ex pected to send down to the union for men, and the union will select them. This Is not business, and I shall not consent to It So long as I am engaged in loading ships I shall employ the most efficient men I can find, and I don't care whether they are members of the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Pythias- or the Longshore men's Union. If any organization should demand that I hire only Its members, I should ignore the demand, just as I am doing this. "The union threatens to go into the stevedoring business. That is none of my affair, and I have nothing to say about it X will say this much, however: If the union does this It will not increase the amount of shipping, and it Is not clear how the longshoremen will be benefited. No matter how many stevedores there may be, there Is just so much business and so many men. "'As to the statement that I am allied with the San Francisco stevedores, that Is untrue. I never co-operated with them in any way, and any declaration to the con trary is a lie." Attempt to Influence Nonunion Men. Some of the members of the union have been endeavoring to persuade nonunion workers in the harbor to- stop work, but have not as yet met with, much success. Several of them said yesterday that these objects of their persuasion would in a day or two fall into line. If a complete tie-up .comes, Portland will be put to a decided disadvantage in its competition with the Coast This harbor has boasted of its freedom from strikes and of- Its promptness in loading ships. In view of the approaching arrival of the United States transport Adato, which comes for forage supplies, Portland stands a chance of suffering a handicap in Its competition for Government shipping. DOESN'T WANT A FAIR. Mr. Wittenberg Echoes J. Frank "Watson's Protest. PORTLAND, Oct.lo-(To the Editor.) As a citizen and taxpayer of this city, I desire. to place myself on record regard ing the 1903 Lewis and Clark Fair, and to state that I fully agree with the views of Mr. J. Frank Watson a9 to our inability to hold such an exposition. In my opin ion, our city is not large enough to carry out a scheme of such magnitude. We would have to depend entirely on our abil ity to bring people from a long distance to view the exposition. The local population would be of such small amount as to make it entirely a matter of no considera tion, and I believe the time to take this matter up is the present I believe that we should get all the prominent citizens and taxpayers of this city to voice their opinions In the premises, so that if it is decided to drop the plan of having the exposition it should be done at an early date, as later on we would be ridiculed to a considerable extent I would sug gest that through the columns of your paper you ask all taxpayers of this city to mail you a postal card stating whether they are in favor of or against the fair. This will afford a good opportunity of feeling the public pulse. Either this should be done (and I believe this i9 the simplest way) or a mass meeting should be called asking the people to attend and voice their sentiments on this question. Don't let it go, too long, as we might be brought to a poln,t where, while we did not want to go ahead, we would be compelled to on account of the position we would be placed In, while If it is decided at this early date we can easily drop the mat ter without very much comment. I think it is a very Important matter and should he attended to at once. Personally, I feel that expositions are not a benefit to a city. I am satisfied that Buffalo has made a mistake and is sorry that she has haa a fair. In talking with a few of the citi zens of that place about 10 days ago, they told me that all of the stock and a good portion of their bonds would be -wiped out. One man with whom I talked had made a subscription of many thou sands of dollars and said he did not ex pect a cent of It to be returned. The re action after an exposition of this kind Is always very detrimental to a city's inter est We are having a glut of fairs and expositions In other parts of our coun try where the population Is quite dense. If they cannot make a success, how is It possible for us to do so, situated as we are In this sparsely settled section of the country? I believe if one-fourth of, the money that would be subscribed towards this fair were used in advertising our country, In beautifying our streets and attracting people here, through proper channels, It would be far better for us. "Very respectfully yours, H. WITTENBERG. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Last Performance of "In Old Ken tucky." "In Old Kentucky," the elaborate pro duction which has delighted crowds at the Marquam for two nights, will be given its final performance tonight. The pick aninny band, which is a star feature, took In the baseball game yesterday and delighted the crowd -with their playing. Sale of Seats for Robson Today. The sale of seats will open this morn ing at 10 o'clock for Mr. Stuart Robson in "The Henrietta," which is the attrac tion at the Marquam Grand Theater Fri day night, October 18, and Saturday mat inee (only), October 19. Every theatergoer will he desirous of seeing Stuart Robson as "Bertie the Lamb." It not only means that they are to laugh as another generation has laughed before them, at Mr. Robson's great comedy creation, but that they will see that first and greatest of American comedies, "The Henrietta' produced up on a more elaborate order than It has ever been during its 14 years career. All modern accessories in the way of rich settings have been given to the play. Hermann, -the Great. The great and only Hermann comes to the Marquam Grand Theater Monday and Tuesday nights, October 21-22, in his magnificent exhibition of magic and oc cult phenomena. The critical theater goers of the United States have long since endorsed the marvellous work of this great Hermann, and It Is safe to say that as an entertainer In magic and sen sational illusions his standard is abso lutely secure as being the foremost pur veyor of this style of entertainment on the American stage. "Yon Yonson" Coming to Cordray's. Thall & Kennedy's, old familiar play, "Yon Yonson," which broke all records at Cordray's Theater two years -ago, will return Sunday night for a week's en gagement, and already there is so much interest in the event that crowded houses are assured for the entire week. The play has been appropriately called the Swedish "Uncle Tom's Cabin," for Its popularity never wanes, no matter how often it returns. A large measure of Its popularity, however, Is attributable to the fact that Messrs. Thall & Ken nedy never fall to give it an elaborate production, engaging the best people they can find for the several parts, all of which require special interpretation. Among the members who have been seen here before is Miss Beatrice Norman, an act ress who is well remembered by the fre quenters of Cordray's, and who will be eagerly welcomed again. The remainder of the cast Is strong and a production is promised which will only add to the pop ularity of this perenlally fascinating play.

BROOKLYN SEWER SYSTEM It "Will Again Be Discussed at a Sub Donrd Sleeting. The Brooklyn Sub-Board of Trade has changed the time and place of meeting to Thursday night and to Webfoot engine house on Powell and East Eighteenth streets. The first meeting at the new place will be held tomorrow evening, when the proposed Brooklyn sewer sys tem will again come up for discussion. It was considered one evening by the board and then further consideration was de ferred one month. There is no more light to throw on the probable cost of the system than was shed from the reports at the last meeting. The City Engineer has said that he would have the district surveyed this Fall and the extent of the territory as well as the routes of the Jarge conduit deter mined and the branches located within several months, but It would take a long time to prepare full plans and details, on AITKEN. account of the magnitude of the proposed system. Under favorable conditions It would probably be two years before the contract could be let and work started. There is considerable difference of opin ion in the district over the advisability of having the system built even within that time. The opposition says that the .population Is too small to carry out the heavy cost and that it would confiscate much property if It is put in. Those fav orable set forth that it is bound to come, and 'that in the end it will be cheaper to pay for the sewer than to build cess pools. FATE OF THE CUT-WORMS. Pestilence Swept Them Away Them selves "Victims of Parasites. Corvallls Times. The armies of cutworms that did so much damage In Wllamette Valley gar dens last year and the year before were not on hand this season. Last year they ate up garden after garden. Owners dosed them with coal oil, chased them with clubs, swore like steamboat cap tains at them and tried every other means to rid their gardens of the multitudes of pests. But It all came to naught The worms got out of sight when the pro prietor hove in sight, and appeared again by countless hundreds when he had dis appeared. One row after another of growing vegetables was destroyed, the worms never leaving the garden patch until they had wrecked it. But the worms were absent this season. They went as mysteriously and suddenly as they came, and the fact o'f how they went is most Interesting. The cutworms all died, and died in a peculiar way. A germ disease went through their ranks like a pestilence, and never ceased Its ravages till the last worm was at rest The death of every -o8 worm was identical with that of his comrade. On the rear end of each, a diseased place appeared. The affection was only a speck at first, but It grew larger and larger until half the worm was involved. As the affection ad vanced along the body the worm grew more and more feeble, and at last died. Hundreds of them in various stages of the disease were put under the micro scope at the college and studied. Germs were taken from them and cultures made. From the cultures other worms were In oculated, . and the disease was' repro duced with perfect precision. The 'In vestigation led to a fixed conviction that the disease was epidemic In the cutworm world, and the non-appearance . ot the pests this season shows how fatal it was. Professor Pernot, who made the investi gation, believes that the disease was con tracted by something that the worms ate, as In every case the digestive or gans were involved. Professor Pernot still has a supply of the fatal germs on hand ready to dose any stray cutworm that happens around. ADVICE TO PORTLAND. Slining Stock Exchange Should In vestigate Sumpter District. Correspondence of Baker City Democrat. Sumpter. Now that the Portland Mining Exchange has started doing business again, this is a good time to call the attention of the management to the fact that a thorough Investigation of the Sumpter mining district would prove of Inestimable benefit to the exchange. A competent mineralogist sent here In the Interest of the hoard could do more than anything else to demonstrate to mining Investors the possibilities that are lying right at Portland's doors. It Is said tho mines of Nevada made San Francisco the city and commercial center she is today, and created two-thirds of her millionaires. There is no reason why Portland should not be benefited fully as much as San Francisco by' her mines. The establish ment and success of a mining exchange depends much upon the stability ana character of the securities dealt In. If bona fide Investments in bona fide proper ties are constantly presented; If the wild cat propositions are eliminated and pre vented from being dealt in on the floors of the exhange, then will Its success be assured. Careful attention should be paid to the character of the stock, listed, and nothing but first-class securities, or properties with first-clas9 possibilities, should be handled by the patrons of the exchange. More interest In mining matters should be taken by Portland people. The suc cess of the exchange should be one of the business men's first considerations. It Is Impossible to estimate . the amount of wealth that will flow to the city should its citizens once- get the control of leading mining properties. Thousands of dollars today would be In the possession of Port land people had they taken advantage of the chances offered them In years gone by to get hold of gilt-edged mining proper ties. It is a well-known fact that the big producers of this district have been developed with Eastern capital In almost every instance, and there Is not one of them that could not have been acquired by Portland people at Borne time or other. The output of these mines goes East, and out of the state, when by right It should get no farther away than Port land. But this is not saying these oppor tunities are lost. There are just as good and many- more being presented right along. All that is necessary is to Investi gate these opportunities, Invest capital In them and make them pay big Interest on the original investment Unless Interest Is aroused In good paying securities a mining exchange can never hope to suc ceed; therefore, every effort must be put forth to handle this class of stock and prove to the' public that the opportunities for gain in mining securities are as many as in any other calling.

Experience With the Berry, "I have gained twenty-five pounds since I left off coffee and began drinking Postum Food Coffee In Its place. ''I had become very thin In flesh and suffered tortures with heartburn, was a nervous wreck with headache practically all the time until one dreadful day when the good doctor told me I must quit drinking coffee, as he had nothing left to try to relieve me. "I could not drink tea and had tried everything else, even Postum, but put it by at the first trial, because It was taste less. "Forced to it again, I determined to see If it could not be made palatable and found at once that when I followed direc tions and boiled It long enough, that I not only liked It but gave It to my hus band for several days without his finding It out. I have the name of making splendid coffee, and we always U3ed the best, but of late I have given Postum to guests many times in place of coffee and have never been detected yet. "Our four children have not drank cof fee for three years, and all have gained health and flesh since using Postum. One son, who was always sick, has been greatly benefited by Its use, and as above stated, I have gained twenty-five pounds since taking up Postum.
