About Entrance to !Lcvis ajul

Grows More Intense.
THE SITUATION.
Thirty saloons near entrance to Ex
position grounds.
Fifteen recently established to cater
to Exposition trade.
Fifty churchy have protested against
state of affairs.
Exposition officials deplore the situ
ation.
rCltUens have taken decided stand
flSRinit saloons.
Protest and petition may he pre
sented Council.
License committee may ho askcd by
voters to revoke licences.
Residents of ward in which saloons
are located have entered protest.
Declared that saloons now there do
not obey the letter of the law.
lp 50 o Portland's churches yesterday
action was taken acalnst the clustering
of -saloons about, the entrance to the
Lewis and Clark Exposition grounds, res
olutions were adopted protesting against
the stale of affairs, and voters of the con
gregations were urged to sign a petition
to the Council asking that something toe
done in the matter, and, if possible, that
the licenses of some of the resorts, espe
cially those of the "mushroom" variety,
be revoked.
Through, these 50 churches the majority
of Portland's population was again made
.acquainted with the facts in the case and
were told what repulsive sights citizens
might expect to see in that vicinity if the
saloons were allowed to remain unmo
lested It was demonstrated that from
the car-lines to the main entrance to the
Centennial visitors would have to pass be
tween rows of saloons filled with boister
ous drinkers, and through an atmosphere
charged with the odor of liquor and with
obscene oaths. In practically all the
churches the result was the fame the
tfltef of affairs was deplored and the con
gregation took a stand against the con
dition now existing, while voter? of the
several congregations expressed their de
termination to light the saloons to the
bitter end. The majority of the pastors
in the city mentioned the subject In their
discours.es.
Pastors Present Petitions.
The pastors of the leading churches of
t!ie .city presented the matter at" the
morning service yesterday, explaining in
a tbw yards that the usual stopping place
,of -cars near the entrance to the Fair
grounds would be lined with saloons, if
some action were not taken to induce the
City Council to revoke some of the
licenses. Then petitions were circulated
among the congregations and in all cases
almost all those present signed. Long
lists were obtained from the Taylor-street
Methodist, the First Congregational and
the First Baptist Churches.
The ministers in all cases but one or
two made the appeals to the congrega
tions, as they had agreed to do In a meet
ing a few days ago. They spoke only a
few words in each Instance, as though the
matter were of too common a knowledge
and too patently a nuisance to need any
argument. They merely told their hear
ers that tlio petitions being circulated
were .-to have some action taken to pre
ent the crowding of saloons about the
entrance to the Exposition, and that their
signatures would be valuable. At the
"White Temple, where several large serv
ices were held, many hundred names were
obtained by leaving petitions at the door,
where both those coming in and tlose
going out could sign.
That the people of Portland are in ear
nest about this matter was shown not
nly" by the ready way in which the peti
tions were signed, but by a movement
.vhich nas begun to take shape among the
women.
"If the Council will not act and revoke
the licenses, why not prevail upon the
Fair officials to change the main entrance
to the grounds?" they say. "The spot
chosen is handy, but there are many
others which could be used as well."
But, though this would be a retaliatory
measure, which would please the petition
ers, it is hardly believed that it will be
successful. The entrance is central, the
car switches have been so extended as to
make travel back and forth quick and a
greal deal of trouble would be necessary
to make an entrance far enough away
from -the .quarter In which there are to be
so many saloons.
The rfncerlty of the movement is none
the "less demonstrated by the fact that
the "people would be willing to choose a
less fitting entrance to be able to avoid
the saloons.
FiiEGED AND JAMISON SPEAK
vl'ormcr Believes Saloon Licenses
ATM Not Bo Revoked.
"Obligations of Citizenship" was the
topic of the. open forum and platform
meeting "held last night 'in Woodmen of
the World Hall. East Sixth street, by
the Central Baptist Church, Rev. W. E.
Randall, -pastor. Councilman A. Flegcl
and O. PT M. Jamison, of the Municipal

even more Important that Portland should
have good officers than that the state
should have good officers, and Christian
men and women should do their duty in
electing this class of men."
Flegel Gives Opinion.
Councilman Flegel was Introduced, and
opened his remarks by saying how many
present had registered preparatory to do
ing their duty at the polls as good cit
izens. Portland, he said, was the finest
city in the country, and it was the duty
of its .people to keep it clean. Hejwlnted
out that the people had it in their hands
to do so.
In speaking of the saloons that had
been licensed near the Fair, he said that
he did not helleve that any of the ,11-

V
V HARNEY - M . F
The map reproduced herewith shows the conflict in the Malheur Canyon
between the surveys of the Corvallis & Eastern and the Union Pacific"
railways and the recent lines run by the Government surveyors in the
service of the reclamation bureau.
There is practically 100 miles of railroad survey run through the canyon,
and the adoption of the. plans as proposed by the reclamation department
would mean the forced abandonment of any railroad project in that dis
trict. In other words, it would bottle up the only feasible route leading
Into Central Oregon from the east that has as yet been discovered by the
surveyors working in the interests of the companies.
From Yale west to Harper's Ranch, a distance of about 13 miles, the
surveys run by the railroads and the irrigation engineers are Identical,
the lines of one survey running coincident with those of the other. All
along, from the head of the Malheur River to the eastern end of the sur
veys at Ontario, there Is a conflict, and the construction of the one project
according to the present plans would mean the exclusion of the other from
the territory.
The plans of the transportation committee of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce and allied business interests that are back of an agitation to
result in the construction of a road through a Central Oregon point to an
east-and-west route, are, therefore In conflict with the irrigation
project as now proposed by the Government. It is understood that a com
promise will be attempted with the bureau looking to the adjustment of
conditions so that both, the road and the canals can be built.

Rev. Randall closed with a few re
marks, saying that statistics showed that
the cities would soon show an immense
majority over the rural districts. Then
would come the crucial test of our free
institutions and it behooved every Chris
tian to do his whole duty by the state.
He announced that as soon as the new
church on East Ankeny street was occu
pied an open forum for discussion of
popular topics would be inaugurated.
HE SCORES MAYOR- WILLIAMS
Dr. Clarence True Wilson Discusses
Political Situation.
As a prelude to his sermon. Dr. Clar
ence True Wilson spoke as follows last
night at Qrace M. E. Church:
Our city is very near a crisis in Its moral
life. Terns of thousands of utrangera will be
drawn here to attend the Exposition and will
come back or stay away as they are Impressed
with us. Then our own youn people must
KTOW up and get their own ideals of life in
the conditions we make in this city. We ne-d
at the bead of our city Government a clean
handed, high-minded clttren without promlwa
to the law-hreakinc forces of this municipal
ity. The decent element here has been dis
appointed and disgusted at the Incumbent's.!
attitude on all moral question, ana his apol
ogies for the lawlessness of his administration.
He has felt called upon to criticise the
churches, the ministers and the reform citi
zens who elected him, bue he hae not turned
a gun on the law-breaVlng saloon, the gam
blers and the grafters. His defeat at the
primaries, and if not there, at the voting
booth, would be the highest triumph the caue
of good, government and the- honest enforce
ment of law could have. I ee that the liquor
dealers have gotten together and are unitedly
supporting Mayor Williams for another term.
I can see no reaeon why they should not. He
is theirs.
But the Christian forces of Portland have
had their strength greatly augmented. They
are on better terms with the labor men than
ever before. The independent voters have
grown restive at the change of character and
ohift of sides in Mayor WllUaias since his
election. If the Republicans -wit! give us a
chance, an the forces will get together and
help them elect H. A. Albee, Mayor. If they
will not, and the Democrats will give vs an
euuatlv rood man. we ought to support hlsa.
If we Jmvconly a choice of t evil, the
moral men of the city ought to ret tbgethw
and nominate & fitting representative of our
highest life, and In eplte of saloons. gratUnaen
and gamblers, wc can elect hint on an Inde
pendent ticket. The Prohibitionists have
named an independent ticket, and at iu head
a man in every way qualified for the office,
who will ctand It he It needed to rive u a
chance to vote for one not pledgett to the
saloons, or will withdraw, if 'by teat he can
more easily aid the election of the right man.
IVIth the red-light district flourishing and"
the saloons triumphant Sundays and week
days alike, with 27 new ones already licensed
at the very gates of our Exposition grounds
to offend the aenee of decency and Insult the
women and children of Portland, the visitors
who will be our guests, no wonder those ele
ments want to bask in the smile of the same
administration for another term. "The wicked
walk on every hand, when the vilest men are
exalted." This la the time for you Christiana
to assert your manhood In a demand for the
nomination of men you can trust In office;
and It turned down by your parties, to smash
all party lines and elect independently the
right man. When bad men combine, the good
must associate. The saloons -want Williams
again; therefore, we do not. -V very high au
thority baa said: "Woe unto them that build
a town with' blood and establish a city by
iniquity."
HE RECOMMENDS H. It. ALBEE
Rev. A. J. Montgomery Says Chris
tian People Should Support Him.
"Duty of Christians in the Coming Pri
mary Election." was the topic of Rev.
Andrew J. Montgomery, at the Third
Presbyterian Church, East Pine Btrect.
last evening, and his text was, "Tc are
the salt of the earth; ye are the light of
the world." Mr. Montgomery set forth
with force that now is the time for Chris
tian people in Portland to make their in
fluence felt. If ever, at the primaries,
which shall determine who will be the
candidates for Mayor at the June elec
tion. The direct-primary law had made
Jt possible for the Christian clement to
have a say in the selection of clean men
ns candidates. The old Idea that Chris
tian people should hold themselves aloof
from public affairs has passed, for. as the
text says, they are "the salt of the earth
and the light of the world," and should
make It manifest by participation in mak
ing a clean city. It was not a case, said
MrMontgomery. where the few who can
escape from the sinking ship should do so,
and let those who remain to go down with
the vessel, but it was a question of saving
the ship and all on board
Mr. Montgomery said that of all the
candidates for Mayor about whose policy
there was no question, as derived from
their published utterances, Fred T. Merrill
and H. R. Albee had left nothing to be
misunderstood. Mr. Merrill had declared
unequivocally for an open town, with all
that implied. He had not used language
that could be misunderstood, and had
spoken with entire .frankness. Christian
people knew what they might expect if he
ho elected Mayor.
Mr. Albee had declared his policy with
equal frankness, that he will enforce ex
isting laws without undertaking radical
reforms. Mr. Montgomery recommended
his congregation and all Christian people
to support Mr. Albee, as the one candi
date deserving their confidence, and a citi
zen in every way worthy. Of the other
candidates lor Mayor, Mr. Montgomery
had nothing to say, even passing over B.
Lee Paget, Prohibition candidate, in si
lence. Traveling Men Meet.

elers representing the T. P. A. and
the U. C T. held a meeting In the par
lors of the Portland yesterday for the
purpose of arranging Jor Traveling
Men's day at the Exposition. The date

PRAISES NATURAL SCENERY
Editor or The World's Work Here
to Gather Data for Lewis and
Clark Exposition Number
of That Periodical. .
Walter H. Page, one of the notable
literary stars of America, is in -the city
preparing to write up the Lewis and
Clark Exposition for the magazine of
which he is editor, the World's Work.
He is accompanied by Mrs. Page, and
they are guests at the Portland. Mr.
Page, better known as "World's Work
Page," is a tall, spare man with a
charming manner, and he speaks with a
slight New England acccntalthough
he registers as a New Yorker. His
face is a serious one, and his nalr is
iron gray.
It was suggested to him that the
easiest way to begin the Interview was
to ask the familiar question: What
is your full name, where were you born,
and hew old are you? But Mr. Page de
murred. However, from another source
It is learne'd that he is Walter Hines
Page, born at Cary, N. H., August 15,
1S55, and that he was educatej at
Bingham School. Randolph-Macon Col
lege. Virginia, and Johns Hopkins Uni
versity. Editor of the Forum 1S90-95,
Mr. Page was literary adviser to
Houghton. Mifflin & Co. 1S35-99. and
was the editor of the Atlantic Monthly
1S3C-99. He Is the editor of The Re
building of Old Commonwealths." Five
years ago, he and his partner the firm
is known as Doubleday. Page & Cc
began their conection with the World's
Work, published In New York, and in
addition the firm publishes Country Life
in America and the Garden Magazine,
two other famous magazines esteemed
for their high literary qualities and
fine illustrations.
Mrs. Page and I have been very
much pleased with the picturesque
beauty of this city," said the editor of
the World's Work. "We went today in
trolley cars over a considerable por
tion ot Portland, anj especially admired
the view from Portland .Heights, al
though cloudy weather prevailed to a
slight degree. What am I here for?
Business and pleasure. My firm will
issue a special Lewis and Clark Expo
sition edition in the August number
of the World's Work, and that is prin
cipally the business that has brought
me to Portland. The write-up an'd Il
lustrations will be on a liberal scale,
and in addition to the Exposition fea
tures we Intend to publish what you

Washington and Idaho. I have been
away from home one month, and have
spent the last two weeks looking over
Helena. Mont.. Spokane. Seattle and Ta
coma. Wash., Vancouver, B. C, and
other places. '
"Your Exposition out here Ip well ad
vertised In the East, and I expect quite
a large number of people will come to
Kee It, and also the magnificent ecencry
of the Pacific Northwest. Oregon In par
ticular. But I wish to say a word of
friendly criticism right here. The write
ups sent East from the Pacific Coast
have Invariably told up Easterners all
about your mining, lumbering, fishing and
other Industries: the great possibilities
of increased trade with the Orient, It
ligation, about your Exposition, and other
features. But in my opinion hardly any
thing has been sent us concerning the
magnificent scenic beauty of this part of
our great country. You have snow-clad
mountain? here all the year from Jan
uary to December lakes, rivers, wonder
ful canyons, a perfect panorama of beauty,
and yet you far Western people prac
tically do not tell in print about your
greatcet asset. You don't tell what the
good Lord has done for you, out here"
'Scuse me, Ahm dustin'. Talk anotha
cha' " said a polite voice, and Mr. Page
and the reporter were forced to mora by
the sweeper-up of the hotel corridor. But
the big editor of The World's Work was
not disturbed, and. taking- another chair,
he again got busy with his talk, and this
time he discussed the death struggle be
tween Japan and Russia, from a trade
point of view. That is, he speculated
what will be the advantages to this coun
try in increased trade, when the war Is
finished. "I don't think the Russians
can whip Togo at sea," uttered the New
York editor.- puffins away at his cigar.
"Togo is too shrewd to risk too much" all
at once. He'll play a waiting game. I don't
think Japan to going to get whipped. But
If she does, Russia won't be allowed to
seize Japan. The world would object
When peace comes it will be difficult to
grasp the increased trade possibilities be
tween the Pacific Coast and the Orient.
And of course, the rest of the country Is
vitally interested In this." J. M.
Would Buy Theaters.
A representative of S. Morton Cohn,
the vaudeville manager, stated last night
that Consldlne & Sullivan had made an
offer to buy 12 of Mr. Conn's vaudeville
theaters In the Pacific Northwest, but
that the offer has not as yet been ac
cepted or declined. "Any statement that
the 12 theaters have been disposed of is
false." went on the speakerl "Mr. Cohn
