THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1903.
LOW RATES CERTAIN
Railroads Will Favor Lewis
and Clark Fair.
CONFERENCE SOON TO BE HELD
Favorable Attitude of Northern
Line Will Swny tlie TrannconU
zientnl Fannencer A.ocIatIon,
to Grant CouccxhIoii.
That the representatives o' transcon
tinental lines who will moeet a commit
tee Irora the Iewis and Clark Fair
will agree to quote unusually low rates
lor the Exposition la regarded by rail
road men as certain. Assurances have
been given that the Lewis and Clark
Pair will receive rates as low as any
ever granted to a Coast enterprise. This
probably means that at least one fare for
the round trip will be authorized, and It
may be that a rate of for the round
trip from Chicago may be granted. Some
railroad men believe that the $50 fare
irom Chicago Is most apt to be uted
ob the basing rate.
The only question that appears likely
to be brought up for serious consider
ation between the conferees Is the dura
tion of time these rates shall be In effect.
The officials of the Fair are anxious that
the rate be applied during the six
months the Fair Is open.
Some railroad men are opposed to this
policy, believing that certain selling
days should be fixed and that regular
lares be quoted on other days. Such olil
clals insist that the companies cannot
do business all Summer on an Exposi
tion basis.
If any difficulty is had in reaching a
conclusion It Is likely to come from the
southern lines. The northern roads, hav
ing close business relations with Portland
and the state of Oregon, as well as other
JCorthwest points, are inclined to bo
very liberal. They are likely to Insist
upon extending to the Fair board almost
every consideration that, has been asked.
"While some protest may be made by
BOJtbern lines, particularly those with no
connecting lines into Oregon territory. It
is not believed they will go so far as to
endeavor to upset arrangements.
From what is known of the attitude
of the Transcontinental Passenger Asso
ciation the disposition of members is to
agree to any proposal that Is satisfactory
to the northern lines, the ones most In
terested. This practically assures the
Lewis and Clark Fair of the consider
ations that are desired.
The iconference between a committee of
the Lewis and Clark Fair and the com
mittee from the Transcontinental Passen
ger Association will be held some time
next week, during the visit to the Coast
of Charles S. Flee, general passenger
agent of the Northern Pacific. As chair
man of the committee Mr. Fee has asked
all tho interested roads to be represented.
It is not known, as yet, how' successful
this movement will be, but at least Mr.
Fee and A. L. Craig, general passenger
agent of the O. R. & N., will attend.
The result of this meeting will probably
determine the action of the Transconti
nental Passenger Association.
It Is rather significant that the confer
ence over Lewis and Clark Fair rates
is to be held at a time when the passen
ger associations have not fixed the
rates to apply from this territory to the
St. Louis Fair. In fact, it is likely that
the Lewis and Clark rates will have
been quoted before the St. Loujs rates
are settled.
The settlement of the Lewis and Clark
rates two years before the Exposition
is opened will give tho officials in charge
a dt finite basis upon which to work In
advertising the big attraction. Equally
as important, however, is the action
which binds the railroads to aid the
Fair. Naturally after the general passen
ger agents have agreed to favor low
rates they will do a great deal toward
advertising the Fair. The railroads
would. In any event, advertise tho Ex
position extensively, but they are more
apt to begin early and advertise more
extensively when they are. committed to
the assistance of the enterprise.
The question of low railroad rates from
the East Is one that the Fair officials
have long desired settled. In the ad
dresses made before tho Transcontinental
Passenger Association during Its meet
ing In Portland the speakers brought
out the fact that the Fair could not be
made a success unless low railroad rates
were granted. There has, however, nover
3eon much doubt but that tho transconti
nental lines, acting from the standpoint
of self-interest if for uo other reason,
would grant low rates to Portland. The
Exposition officials, though, would like
to know as soon as possible what these
rates are to be.
StltVEYOHS M2.VU THE DALLES.
Stnilrond Knjjlnors Arc SnppoKcd to
He Employed liy Northern. Pacific.
A camp of railroad engineers, estab
lished about five miles above The Dalles,
is giving considerable uneasiness to. rail
road men interested in that section of the
state. Both tho O. It. & N. and the
Columbia Southern, having interests in
the country which the party is working,
are watching the progress of tho surveys
closely.
Though nothing has been done thus far
to Indicate the road Interested in the sur
veys railroad men bcliovc that the North
ern Pacific is behind the work. That
neither the O. R. & N. nor any of Its
allied corporations has undertaken the
work seems certain. The Northern Pa
cific is the only other line near enough
to tills territory to be seriously con
sidered in the speculations.
Tho Interest of tho Northern Pacific In
euch a survey is explained oy railroad
men to be the same as that which in
duced the Mellen system to survey a
lino down the north bank of the Colum
bia River. At present the Northern Pa
cific line is but -10 miles from the point
"where the surveyors are working, and a
line down the Columbia would bring
them much closer.
Just above The Dallas there is an
ideal place for the construction of a
railroad bridge. Three 90-foot spans
-would allow the Mellen line to put ia a
substantial bridge. Natural abutments
aro to be had on each side of the river
and the cost of building a bridge would
be light.
Basing their predictions en the as
sumption that the Northern Pacific is
soon to build down the north bank of
the Columbia railroad men insist that it
is most likely this road has sent the
party uf .surveyors into the flM which
is working above The Dalles. It Is fig
ured that the road is looking over the
Eastern Orvgon country, having in view
tho possibility of entering that district
when Its other system is completed.

prospective operation of the Rapid Tran
sit Subway, now nearing completion in
this city, declare that such a catastrophe
as that which has Just occurred on the
Paris underground railway will be im
possible here. The subway here Is much
nearer the surface.'ventilation is perfect,
the tunnel is larger, exits and ventilation
shafts more numerous, the cars will be
fireproof, and the latest contrivances for
the safe use of electricity will be used.
Should a fire start la any train from a
short circuit, the power in that section
will be turned off automatically, while
standpipes with hose are located at short
intervals ready for any emergency. The
subway officials have been kept busy an
swering nervous questioners since the
Paris accident, and they are positive no
such thing will be possible in the New
York tunnel.

MUCH LAND RECLAIMED.
Good. Work IlcHultliifr From Irriga
tion in Spuknnc Valley.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Aug. 12. The construction of a
series of irrigation systems in the Spo
kane Valley of Eastern Washington prom
ises, before many years, to reclaim that
entire tract of fertile soil, 40 miles long
and from three to six miles wide. In so
doing, the amount of taxable property In
Spokane County will be greatly Increased
and the city of Spokane will be assured of
well-fllled markets throughout the entire
season. All irrigation so far attempted
near Spokane has been done by private
enterprise, the promoters first buying up
the lands and reservoir sites, so that in
the end the profits are all their own.
Nature has been good to the Irrigators
in the Spokane Valley and around the
rim of the valley provided a series of
lakes, which store the melting snows that
run down from the neighboring moun
tains, as well as the heavy Spring rains.
Practically all of the irrigation In the
Spokane Valley has been built up using
these lakes as reservoirs, the distribut
ing canals carrying away the waters
stored by nature.
Tlie Flrt Enterprise.
The greatest Irrigation scheme yet un
dertaken in the vicinity of Spokane Is that
of the Spokane Valley Land & Water
Comjmny, which operates east of Spokane
In tho valley of thp Spokane River, get
ting its water from lakes located in the
highlands adjoining. For several years
this company and Its predecessors have
been at work securing titles to water sup
plies and rights of way for a complete
system of canals. When the season Is
favorable the land yields a fair return
without irrigation, but in the dry sea
sons it can not be reHed upon. Tlie ex
pense of supplying enough water to these
lands to secure crops will likely be mod
erate, while the increased yield, at the
very door of a city of 50,000 inhabitants,
will be sure to bring good returns.
In 1900 construction work began, and a
canal was built from Liberty Lake. This
canal Is four miles In length, and now
waters 000 acres of land ten miles east of
Spokane city limits. In 1901 fields of al
falfa were planted, and a 5-year-old dry
orchard was ditched and put into shape
for irrigation. Garden truck of all kinds
was raised during that year, and results
were such that the usefulness and prac
ticability of irrigation were thoroughly
established.
The first of the year 1902 this land was
put upon the market at $50 per acre, and
from that price was advanced to JG0 per
acre. By July most of the COO acres had
been sold in 16, 20 and 40-acre tracts.
Most of it was put Into cultivation,
homes built, bushes and trees set 'out,
alfalfa, planted and general garden truck
of all kinds was raised In large quanti
ties. The orchard watered yielded a fine
crop of 'applis, prunes, plums .and cher
ries. A gol yield of alfalfa was ob
tained, and successful crops of toma
toes, corn, potatoes, berries, tobacco, eta,
were marketed. The few tracts which the
company now owns are held at $100 per
acre, and improved land at from J 125 to
$203 per acre. Terms of sales aro one
fifth down and four annual payments,
with Interest on deferred payments at 7
per cent.
Flub. Lake Citnnl.
Last year a canal was completed which
will distribute water from Fish Lake
over 6000 acres of rich land between
Hauser Junction and Jtathdrum, 23 miles
from Spokane. It has just been put upon
the market, and a part will be sold at $75
per acre, with the purchaser's agreement
that It will be put Into cultivation and Im
proved. The canal as now built is seven
miles long, from S to 12 feet In width, and
will carry nine cubic feet of water per
second. The canal can be enlarged when
necessary. The company owning this ca
nal also has rlcbts to water from New
man, Sucker and Haydcn lakes and from
the Spokane River. A short canal has
been constructed from Newman Lake,
and work Is being done on others. When
the canal system is entirely developed it
is estimated that 49,000 acres will be wa
tered. Eye Five Inchcx Acrofts.

Visitors to Faneull Hall Market just at
this time have an opportunity to view a
sword fish of such size that it is rtjflly a
curiosity. Undoubtedly it Is one of the
largest nsh of Its kind ever brought into
this city, and crowds of people marketing
stop before the stall. No. 127. of Prior
Brothers, to look at this fish, which a
placard states to be 164 feet ln.longth
and to weigh S87 pounds. These, however,
are not its gross measurements because,
nke most of the swordtish that come into
the Boston market, the sword and the tail
were cut off by the fishermen who caught
it in order to better handle it on the
vessel. But the sword has been preserved
and was easily distinguishable by its
great size. It lwd a width at the base of
aearly six inches, and its length was
nearly a yard. The eyeball had a diam
eter of nearly live Inohos, equal to a
circumference of more than 15 Inches.

TRAFFIC IS GR0WIN.G
GOOD BUSINESS BETWEEN PORT
LAND AND COAST "POINTS.
Alliance Will Be Joined by Another
Steamer Before the Summer
Is Over.
Within the past two years the freight
and passenger traffic between Portland
and points on the Oregon and California
coast north of San Francisco has in
creased fully 100 per cent, and It bids fair
to continue growing ' at the same rate.
With the increase In population and busi
ness and the Improved transportation fa
cilities, a large volume of new trade has
been turned toward this city. The Cali
fornia & Oregon Coast Steamship Com
pany, which recently succeeded the Gray
Steamship Company, at present controls
the business, running three regular steam
ers out of this port.
As an instance of how the trade Is pros
pering, it may be noted that the steamer
Alliance, which will sail south tonight,
will carry out 750 tons of general cargo
and SO passengers. These steamers do not
take any through passengers, turning
over such business to the O. R. & N., but,
as they are the only vessels calling at
Coos Bay from this city, they do a large
business between that port and Portland.
There Is also a good passenger trade be
tween Coos and Humboldt Bays, as well
as between Eureka "and San Francisco.
The Alliance at present leaves Portland
every' 12 days, but It Is the Intention be
fore the Summer is over to put on another
passenger steamer, giving a weekly serv
ice between this city and Coast points,
which Information, will be gladly received
by residents of Coos Bay and tributary
territory.
The other steamers of this company are
the Dispatch and the Aberdeen. The for
mer arrived up yesterday with 300 tons of
cement and a quantity of sugar. She dis
charged her freight at Couch-street dock,
and then dropped down to the Eastern
Lumber Company's mill to load out for
San Francisco. She Is scheduled to sail
Saturday night. The steamer Aberdeen
is due tonight with general merchandise
from San Francisco.
In addition to the California & Oregon
Company, the Frank Woolsey Company
operates a line of steamers between Port
land and San Francisco, engaged In the
freight trade. Its steamer Grace Dollar
Is now due from San Francisco with gen
eral cargo. The steamer should have re
ported yesterday, but is believed to have
been detained by fog, which has been
prevailing along the coast from Cape
Flattery south. The steamer has a lum
ber cargo awaiting her for shipment to
California. The Grace Dollar will be fol
lowed In a week by the Robert Dollar,
which will bring a lull general cargo.
PRAISES CAPTAIN YOUNG.
Poltnlloclt'M Mnnter Did Good Service
.in Valparaiso Gale.
In Its account of the recent hurricane
which wrecked the Portland lumber-laden
ship Foyledale, and did much damage, to
other shipping at Valparaiso, La Union,
one of the leading dallies of that city,
gives special praise to Captain Alexander
Young, master of the British bark Poltal
lock, which was stranded at Wlllapa har
bor about two years ago and floated after
weeks of hard work on Captain Young's
part. The Valparaiso dally says:
"After this the work of saving went on
until all were rescued, some of them pas
sengers, others members of the crew of
the Arequlpa, of diverse nationalities. All
were landed from the ship yesterday mor
ning. These facts demonstrate the benefi
cent action of Captain Young and of the
officers and crew. To their efforts and
self-sacrifice Is due the saving of 11 lives.
The captain is Justifiably satisfied with
his subordinates, for In addition to these
Important sorvices being rendered, the
most severe order and discipline was
maintained in the face of the serious
danger with which they themselves were
threatened.
"But If so much of our praise and grati
tude Is due to the officers and crew of
the Poltallock, how much more enthusi
astic should be our gratitude to Captain
Young, who, although his generosity
would demand our silence, we know has
been the author and organizer of this
memorable work of llfesaving.
"Captain Young has frequently been In
our port and Is well known and highly re
jected by all connected with maritime
business In Valparaiso."
ANOTHER SEA 3IYSTERY.
Shlp'w Boat Bcnrinf? Name Honolulu
Picked Up Off Yangtze.
Another mystery of the sea Is reported
from the Orient. The name of Honolulu
figures very prominently in the latest
mystery, as that was one of the names
that appeared in a lifeboat that was
picked up at the mouth of the Yangtse
River some time ago. The Japanese Ga
zette has the following on the subject:
"Our Honolulu contemporaries may be
able to solve this mystery of the sea: The
Shanghai "steam pilot-boat A. M. BIsbec
last week picked up outside the bell buoy
(mouth of the Yangtse) a ship's boat.
painted white and with varnished gun
wale, bearing the name 'Honolulu' and the
builder's name. In the boat were found a
suit of dungarees, two flannel shirts, a
pair of sea boots, a hammer and a chisel;
also a suit of oilskins. She had a few
fathoms of hemp rope, a line lead and a
signal halyard. The rudder was shipped.
The boat had the appearance of not be
ing long in tho water. The boat and Its
fittings were handed over to tho customs.
One would think It was a wanderer from
Hawaii."
TWO BROTHERS READY TO SAIL.
Attempt Will Be Made to Get Her
Away From Ynnconver.
When the Columbia River freshet was
on, the ship Two Brothers came up the
river and proceeded to Vancouver to take
on a cargo of lumber for San Francisco
She Is now loaded and ready to proceed to
her destination. Whether she can get into
deep water at the mouth of the Wlllam
ette remains to be seen, as the -ship Is
drawing is leou A pilot has been sent lor.
and today will make an effort to get the
vessel past the shoal below Vancouver.
There is some doubt on the water front
here whether the feat can be accom
pllshed, but the pilots believe the ship can
be taken down without trouble. Efforts
havo beon made repeatedly to Induce Con
gress to appropriate money for the im
provement of the river at Vancouver, but
thus far without success.
The steamer Harvest Queen arrived up
yesterday with the schooner Endeavor,
and will leave down this morning, towing

HERE'S A DISCREET MAN
Fears ThngH and Thieve and. Gives
Portland the Go-By.
A resident of Harrisburg, G. G. Belts
by name, refuses to attend a meeting
of livestock breeders in Portland be
cause "the dally disappearance of per
sons who have money, the hold-ups,
pocket-picking, and house-pilfering on
every hand as are In Portland would be
an everlasting blot on a town In a semi
civilized . country." The citizen has
worked himself up into a dreadful state
of mind. Judged from his letter he
imagines Portland to be a hell-hole of
iniquity without any restraints whatever.
"I don't care to go at all to a town,"
he writes, "where life and property have
no protection; neither would I exhibit
any livestock if I knew I had winners.
Just now your -city is getting a good
deal of advertising, and it is generally
admitted that the police are blockheads
or are parties to the facts.
"Unless Portland does something to
cleanse itself I predict the Fair will be
a failure. I shall call tne attention of
our Natlona Senators and Representa
tives' to the condition existing when
Congress is asked for an appropriation.
"You need not take this to yourself,
for I believe there are many honest cit
izens in your town. I also believe that
the 'Fair' has attracted an army of
crooks and that the 'force' Is not worth
a cuss. Yours truly, G. G. BELTS."

Pay as
Much
for an inferior beer ?
Schlitz beer costs' tAvice
what common beer costs
in the brewing. One-half
-pays for the product; the
other half for its purity.
One-half is spent in
cleanliness, in filtering even
the air that touches it, in
filtering the beer, in ster
ilizing every bottle. And
it pays the cost of aging
the beer for months before
we deliver it.
If you ask for Schlitz
you get purity and age,
you pay no more than
beer costs without them.
