THE HORNING OKEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVE3IBER 22, 1905. FILLING OF EAST SIDE LOWLANDS Project in Which Owners, City and Port of Portland Are Interested. HOW COST MAY BE MET 3Iay Bo Divided Among the Three Interests, Each .Paying 'for n Particular Share of the Work. To turn submerged lowlands of the East Side, between .Madison and 'Burnslde streets, into hl&h and dry building sites, and make of them one of the most thriv ing business district of the city, plans are promised for filling in the low places ivlth sand and gravel from the bottom of the Willamette RlVer by means of the dredges of the Port of Portland and at the same time for deepening the harbor at that place so that it will float the largest ships. Project Under Consideration. The project Is now under consideration by the East Side Improvement Associa tion, the City Council, the Executive Board and the Port of Portland Commis sion. The one obstacle Is the question of cost and of who shall pay It. Should the property-owners be com pelled to pay the cost, their money outlay will bp heavy, but it is argued that the expense would be far more than compen siitcd by the increased value of the prop erties benefitted. The largest landowners a-p the Oregon & California Railroad and the Lndds. Would Divide the Cost. East Siders propose that the cost be de eded among themselves, who should pay for operating the dredges; the Port of Portland, which should pay for the wear and tear of the dredges, and of the City of Portland, which should pay for bulkhead Ing. as the sand and gravel should be pumped up from the river. Plans thus far arc only tentative and no estimates have been made of the probable cost of the work. Not only would the ground In private ownership be filled, but thr streets also. Buildings in that part of the city now stand on plies and the great Are hazard makes extremely high insurance rates. The district Is amply provided with railroads, and, should it be filled In, would doubtless attract big busi ness houses and perhaps become the cen ter of wholesale trade and warehouse activities.

"A flewlsh citizen I came In here yesterday to explain why ..e . - . could not give liberal donation to the general fund." he said in talking over the situation as it now stands. "Thte man told me that he had a brother in Russia who had suffered at the hands of the mob and that he had heard some of the awful particulars from him he felt called upon to send every cent he could raise directly to his afflicted rolatlve. What did they do to him? Why, according to the Portland brother's letter the mob not only stripped him of his property and clothing but cut his limbs off above the knees, leaving him a helpless cripple with neither food, shelter nor clothing. His wife and eight children are in a ter rible plight and the man himself, of1 course, is absolutely helpless. Before this he was a prosperous tradesman making a comfortable living for his family, bat now his fate Is worse than death would have been."

It was a ltard Jolt for the "wise guy" element, but the "wise guy" in politics seldom comes true, so he should be used to It.

Contact with Liquozone kills any form of disease wrm. because srerms I are of vcKCtable origin, let to the body Liquozone Is not only harmless, but helpful In the extreme. That is Its main distinction. Common Suicides are poisons wheii taken internally. That is why medicine has been so helpless In a. germ disease. Liquozone is exhilarating-, vitalizing, purifying:; yet no dis ease germ can exist In it. The virtues ot Liquozone are derlveJ s,olely from gase. They arc genpratcd from the best producers of oxygen, sul phur dioxide and other germicidal gases. The process of making requires large apparatus, and" from eight to 14 days' time. The object Is to so fix the gases, and to combine them, as to carry Intr the system a powerful tonic-germ-lcldo. We purchased the American rights to Liquozone after thousands of teats had committees. It is something which any lawyer. in the land might well go after, Yet it came to Judge "Wolverton practical ly without solicitation. President Roose velt simply made up his mind and acted. Men "who, having power, do things like that, frequently make mistakes, but in this instance there will be no good citi zens who can bo .found to criticise his action. Judge "Wolverton looks right to the peo ple of Oregon, and there Is general satis faction that a man of his kidney has been selected to succeed the beloved Bellin ger. His appointment offends no notions of the eternal fitness of things. Oregon Pioneer of 1853.

In 1S31. but if It were not for his unseamed face one would estimate his age at ten years more than the 54 which the records put upon him. His hair; and beard are almost white, and his long habit of judicial dig nity and reserve has given him a bearing which does not usually come to men un til after SI.

Its power had been proved, again and again, in the most difficult germ diseases. Then we offered to supply the' first bottle free In every disease that required . it. And over $1,000,000 have been spent to announce and fulfill this offer. The result Is that 11.000,000 bottles have been used, mostly In the past fvo years. Today there are countless cured ones, scattorcd everywhere, to tell what Liquozone has done. But so many others need It that this offer Is published still. In late years, science has traced scores of dis eases to germ attacks. Old remedies do not apply to them. We wish to show those sick ones at our cost what Liquozone can do. Where It Applies. These are the diseases In which Liquozone has been most employed. In these it has earned its widest reputa tion. In all of these troubles wo supply the first bottle free.

While it is bollcved that the application of Thomas Sheridan for a franchise on Front street was made In the Interest of the Western Pacific there Is reason to befteve that It may be a speculative prop osition.

It must be remembered that there is no portion of the Gould system at the present time extending north of Ogden. which Is the terminus of the Denver & R!o Grande system, and from Salt Lake I CI y westward to San Francisco, the route of the Western Pacific reaches its most i northern point at Beckwlth Pass, the crossing of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, At a point north of Reno the junction Is made with the Nevada-Callfornla-Oregon road, which. It is generally believed, is owned by the Western Pacific, operating to Madeline and under ' construction to Al turns, about 40 miles south of Lakevlew. with surveys already completed to the southern end of Goose Lake, at the north ern point of which Is located the seat of Unke County. There are no surveys made or lines projected northwest from Ogden. and no engineers .of the Gould companies have been engaged In location or even preliminary work, so far as known, at any point north of Salem. Engineers at Work. During May and June of this year, two corps of engineers were operating In Ore gon, supposed to be Gould representatives. One of these crews was working from the vicinity of Lakevlew toward Eugene, and the other In the Willamette Valley. In the vicinity of Eugene. and between that point and Salem- It Is now believed that one of the crews was a Southern Pacific party and the other employed by one of the eletftrlc road companies operating In the Valley. This latter conclusion has been reached through the Informatioathat maps of completed surveys of lines pro jected for the Willamette Valley have been submitted to Chicago and Philadel phia capitalists, who are seeking Invest ment in such transportation enterprises on the Pacific Coasu President E. T. Jeffery. of the Denver & Rio Grande, and of the Western Pacific Is reported to have responded, some time ago, to a direct Inquiry concerning the possible advent of the Gould lines Into the Northwest, that nothing definite n,as yet been decided in that regard. He did not deny that Information was desired Uand was being gathered In the field out- present aciuui Dui,uu.K uikuumh oi tne system. Not So Indiscreet. ' "In my judgment." said one well-Informed offlolal yesterday, "plans of some other company are being concealed behind the assumption that the franchises sought at Seattle and Tacoma are In the Intersst of Gould. I believe that one of the appli cants for a franchise In Portland Is acting-for the Western Paclfle. but even If so there Is no likelihood that the fact will become officially acknowledged for a long while. It Is easier, and In many respects better for a big system to organize aux iliary corporations to fight the local strug gles peculiar to each different section to be traversed by new roads. That was done by the northern roads in getting a line down the north bank ot the Colum bia, and its Identity concealed until there was no further occasion for secrecy. Per haps the Gould Interests invading terri tory of the rival Harrlman system and extending toward the Hill traffic pre serves will be even more s:ient as to Iden tification." That any positive Information has been made public that It is iu behalf of the Gould lines that franchises are sought In Puget Sound cities, therefore, meets with little credence. Not that It Is not plau sible enough that entrance to all the Im portant traffic centers of the Northwest might not be quite desirable, but because If It were true, it U not belltfved that President Jeffcry or George Gould would have been so Indiscreet In selection of rep resentatives as to have chosen one who Also most forms of the followinz: Kidney Troubles Liver Troubles Stomach Troubles Women's Diseases Fever, inflammation or catarrh impure or poisoned blood usually indicate a germ at tack. .
