THB.HOkKnjg OBEOOlflAK, TUEDAT, MAX 9; 1905 Iff V PLAN EXPLAINED By LIFE PENCE Cjty 'and Park Officials Are '- Taken to See His Projects. ASKS PARK RIGHT OF WAY Jfembers of Board of Park Commls . Eioners, After Listening to 3Iis Argument, Will Hold Spe . ' cial 3Icctlng Today. Laio Pence had as his guests alone his ditch rlln'o back of Willamette Heights yesterday the Park Commission, Mayor Williams, City Engineer Wanzer, and in cidentally Mr. Houtledge and myself. Mr. Pence invited us to come out and look at .bis scheme of Irrigating, sluicing and water supply ditches and see for ourselves what he -was doing, what he intended to do and why. He took us up the Cornell road in- surreys, introduced us to Mrs. Pence and saw to It that we had an ex cellent luncheon. Iater he took us along the line of the ditches, showed us what he had done, explained the big scheme on which he is working, and then at the crucial moment, at the right spot, and in the most straightforward manner, told what he wanted of the Park Board. It truly looked rather small of the Park Board to block an enterprise so large. He asked for about 500 yards of right of way for a flume through Maclcay Park, and another right of way, oft in Jhe woods on the sleep hillside above the road, across which to run another flume. He had previously told of how the com pany which he represents has planned to catch all the water on both sides of the watershed as far back as the east fprk of Dairy Creek, 20 miles away in WashingtoiT County, of the tunnels planned through the divides, aggregating -five miles, and of the ditches running all over the country and flumes running into the heads of all streams, so that the water will be kept fresh and pure. He unfolded his big plan and explained that at the present time he is held up prin cipally by the Park Board. Will Confer First. That three minutes' speech Mr. Pence made along the line of his ditch, 600 feet above the city and immediately over hanging Macleay Park, was a master piece. But the Mayor merely said: "Per haps these gentlemen would like to confer before they make any concessions." Colonel Hawkins had a glint in "his eye that showed plainly he would be the principal speaker at the meeting of the Park Board today, and the smile on his face while Mr. Pence was speaking showed even more plainly that he would show up some facts about this ditching echeme which Mr. Pence did not mention. As the Colonel said afterwards: "I have some positive views pn this matter." The Park Board arranged to meet this afternoon and decide what would be its course of action. None of the members gavo the slightest inkling yesterday as to his stand on the right of way matter ex cept Colonel Hawkins and he is dead against it. J. D. Meyer. Dr. Eliot and the Mayor looked around, admired the view and kept thcJr opinion to themselves. City Engineer Wanzer was highly inter ested in the whole scheme, but then he has no say on'the Park Board and could afford to taUc. On the whole Mr. Pence did the proper thing In taking out the cily officials and showing them his scheme, for there was not one present who was not impressed with its scope and possibilities. It will cost a great deal of money and the pro moters are taking some risks, but that is their affair. The Park Board will mere ly consider whether the damage done the Macleay Park by a couplo of flumes Is great enough to warrant placing a block in the progress of the plan. Colonel Hawkins' View. It would seem, however, as if the Board might go a little further and consider the feasibility of washing down acres and acres of ground and dumping them into Guild's lake, and Colonel Hawkins ex hibited a decided disinclination to sec all the beautiful hillsides scoured bare, so that the stark rocks will" loom up like 'skeletons of hills, where now tnerc are tbe perfect skylines left by the scourings of Nature's doing. If the Colonel will permit the opinion, he is blocking Lafe Pence for a sentimental reason because he hates to see one twig on those hill sides touched. "They cannot scour down whole hills," aid the Colonel as we drove down the Cornell road on the way home. "They will merely lay bare the ugly rocks and spoil everything." It must be admitted that Mr. Pence has not much sentiment in his undertak ing. He said yesterday: "1 have been engaged In placer mining tor years and have always found my dump too small, so when I came here five years sgo and saw what a dump Guild's Lake and Balch Gulch would make, it made, me feel sick that it was not out by some placer claims of mine. Then I saw that the hills could be sluiced down into the lake, making yard room for the railroads, and factors sites and city lots could be sold where now there are steep hills. Since then J have made thorough surveys, and for tho last two Winters I have had men gaugo the water that fell on those hills. I found that from Balch Creek alone I could sluice down acres and acres. That is my present un dertaking and only a small part of tho water system I am going to begin upon. "Next week I open a camp at Sylvan, on Tanner Creek, to build ditches over to Mill and Beaver Creeks in Washington County. The water I get from that country will be about four times as much as from tbe Balch Creek watershod. I shall conduct It by tunnel under Sylvan, under the hill to the Barnes road, through the backbone by tunnel, thence to a point overlooking the Cornell road GOO feet above the city. That Is my main water supply and with It I shall be able to water the whole country." Further ditches will bo dug by Mr. Pence to the cast fork of Dairy Creek, within a few miles of the Ncbalem, and all that water will be brought Into the main system by the same route. What he has now will not be a drop in tho bucket to what he will get later on. And all this water will pass through Sylvan, from which Jt can be distributed along the whole line of hills back of the city. "Will Xot Delay Work. There is to be no delay to this work. Mr. Pence has already shown that he brooks ho delay. With Western energy lie goes ahead and then asks whether any one objects. If they do he st&ada ready wttfc feis check to pay the dosages. But he dees sot expect to pay muck damages. He realises there are pleaty of -people wfee wMt try to hold Ma up because they - tfetek .fce will have to feulld over their lands er tit. but not he. A. decea surveys Me -aaapped In his miad &sd if one part of the esantry hsiks Mm, he Is ready ts try asothr. He is fcusg s just -bow by aa IaJaeihm as 4 by the Park Board, hut he asks ler lamedtate aotiefi. and he wH get it as far as the Park Board is cooceraed. He has aiade a bold move la tbe tayisg e bis Suae to the very edge of Macleay Park and then asking right of way. hut he says that if he had let his plaas he known sooner, he would have been blocked. Now he claims to have all the rights of way he needs, except the one from the Park Board and another from the Ibex Land Company. And the lack of these at worst has not delayed his work so far. What Lafe Pence hopes to get from this Is a percentage of the Increased val uation of the land, both the spot from which it has been washed and the spot upon which the sluiced ground will rest, a permanent water right and a supply of hydrant water to be sold to the house holders who will 'Some time build all over the hills, He expects to work Ave. ten, perhaps 15 years completing the whole scheme, and by that time be thinks he will have something better than all the placer mines he ever worked a water supply on the hilltops. A. D. FREDERICK W. 3ICJDKEY TELLS OP HIS RECENT TKTP. Holy Land Still Ancient in Charac teristics, but Finds Egypt, Espe cially Cairo, Modernized. Frederick W.Mulkey, who returned yes terday from Europe, after an absence of several months, tells a very interesting story of his tour, which comprehended the principal points of Southern Europe, Northern Africa and the Holy Land. Mr. Mulkey sailed from New York early In January, on tho Arabic, and touched first at the Canary Islands. He went thence to Southern Spain, where he vis ited Cadiz, Seville and Granada. "All feeling against Americans has dis appeared In Spain," said he last evening. "It was only a short time after the Spanish-American War that the Spanish attitude toward the United States became in a measure friendly. At least the vio lent hatred, apparent at that time, gave way very shortly after peace was de clared. I found that the common people of Spain have a. very vague idea of the result of the war. The popular impres sion over there is that Cuba and the Phil ippines were sold to the United States, and that tbe latter country acquired them through purely peaceable, commer cial treaties, rather than enforced ces sions, as the result of victory in war. "I visited Egypt, spending some time in Cairo and up the Nile. Egypt is becom ing rapidly modernized, and the peoplo are industrious and enterprising. In the Nile "Valley they raise three crops a year and seem to be very prosperous. There Is a trolley line from Cairo almost to the Pyramids, and many more tourists are making the trip under the improved con ditions than.heretoforc. I went as far as Luxor and Carnack, and visited the fa mous ruins at those places. "Cairo is a modern city as regards san itation, transportation and lighting. Shep ard8 is the popular hotel with Americans, but the Savoy is really the best hotel there. "Athens, which I visited, is also thor oughly modernized and I spent a very interesting few days there "There Is a decided contrast, however, when one goes to the Holy Land. Coun tries which are "under Turkish domina tion do not advance, and I found the Holy City pretty much as it has always been. The European colonies for the greater part are outside the city wall, and hav some of the modern conveniences. But inside the walls there Is no sewer system, no carriage transportation, and street cars are unknown. At night there is no light within the walls, and few people venture out after nightfall. y "There seems to be no agreement as to the actual sito of tho events associated with the life of the Savior. The traveler Is shown the Church of the Holy Scpul cher as the site of the crucifixion, but many authorities insist that the great event occurred at Gordon's Calvary. Tbe one thing upon which all agree is the location of the Savior's birth at Bethle hem. The Garden of GethBcmano is still maintained and I was greatly interested in visiting It. Jerusalem is in no sense a modern city. The shops are little cubby-holes about six by eight or eight by ten feet in size and almost their sole business is in curia and relics. "Constantinople, which I visited, is an antiquated city of about 1.000,000 inhabi tants. It is not lighted at night and there are no sewers. In the Holy Land I found many colonies of lepers who aro not permitted inside the cities excepting in the. hospitals prepared for them. Most of them, however, prefer to beg on the outride and although they are very re pulsive. T met them everywhere, 'T visited Rome, where I met Charles Kohn. of this city. He Is completely re stored to health and was anxious to hear from-Portland friends. He Is the only Orcgonlan whom I met abroad. "In Cairo I met a German artist, who Is anxiouo to exhibit some of his paint ings at the Lewis and Clark Fair, and at various places I found that the Ex position was pretty well advertised. "In New York City I saw many posters advertising the Fair and found much In terest in it. I returned by was of Liver pool and along the coast of Portugal and th Bay of BlEcay. It was a delightful trip and I enjoyed every moment of it, but it was not particularly eventful. Naturally I am glad to be at home and am quite reconciled to Portland." FROM MILL TO MAN. Clothing Made From Oregon WooL Where can a man buy the best suit of clothes for the money? Is what many people in Portland are now thinking of. The Brownsville Woolen Mill Store, on Third street, opposite th Chamber of Commerce, suggests a few reasons why It can save you money and dress you better than the ordinary store. First comes the mlll-to-man -stylo of 'doing business, which saves from 12 to $5 on each suit. Then the pure new wool need by the mill helps a suit to wear three or four times as long as one made from cotton or second-hand wool; usuallj- called shoddy. Third, but not least, is the guarantee on each Oregon suit sold, of your money back If any article purchased is not entirely satis factory. Prices on men's suits are from 0 to $25. Improvements in Coos. ttlVERTON, Or., May 8. (Special.) The completion of a new wagon road from Coqullle CSty to Bandon at the mouth of the Coqullle river, tho building of a free ferry by the county across the river at Coqullle Rlrcr,- the erection of a telephone line from Coqullle City to Riv crton show the Coqullle Valley Ip pros perous. The new wagon road Is con structed on a railroad grado and is said to be the best road in Coos county. The work of construction will begin next Mon day on the telephone line. A local stock company has been organized for the pur pose of raising the funds and a sufficient amount has been raised to carry the work through. Xoiioas Weed Kills Cattle. VANCOUVER, B. C., May S.
