THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1906.
ALLIANCE FOR
COOS BAY ONLY
California-Oregon Coast Boat
Will Drop Eureka as
Port of Call,
TO MAKE WEEKLY TRIPS
Urgent Need of Shipping Facilities
Causes Company to Adopt This
Means of Aiding Marshfield
and North Bend Firms.
"When the California & Oregon Coast
Eteamshlp Company's coastwise liner Al
liance leaves Portland on her next out
ward voyage, she will not call at Eureka
before returning to this city, as has been
the custom in the past. Orders were re
ceived to this effect yesterday by Agent
F. P. Baumgartner, who looks after the
interests of the company in this city,
end after that date the steamer will aim
t!y run between Coos Bay and Portland.
This new rule will permit of the steam
er making round trips between Portland
and the ports of Marshfield and North
Jiend every week, which will greatly facil
itate the transportation facilities to and
from the growing ports on Coos Bay.
The California & Oregon Coast Com
pany has been endeavoring to secure an
other steamer for the coastwise run, as
it was its desire to keep the port of Eu
reka on the route, but the increasing
trade to Coos Bay has made it Imperative
that something be done to relieve the con
gested freight situation. With this idea
in view, tha local agent of the company
has been working hard to accomplish
some measure of relief.
The California port will not Buffer to
great extent by the taking off of the
Alliance, for two other steamers the Ro
anoke and F. A. Kllburn are calling there
gepularly.
The new arrangement is expected to as
sist materially in aiding the shippers of
Coos Bay, for the Alliance, by the new
schedule, will be able to make a round
trip every week, instead of taking two
weeks to accomplish the journey, as in
.the past.
' Coos Bay Is an Oregon port, and natu
rally should draw upon Portland for most
of its commercial needs, and, in view of
the extraordinary demands for trans
portation facilities, which have become
almost entirely inadequate during the
past year, the steamship companies oper
ating vessels in and out of that port have
been pressed to better the service, but.
owing to the scarcity of light-draft craft
on the coast, it has been impossible to In
crease the service.
All these facta have been thoroughly
considered by the California & Oregon
Coast Steamship Company, and, in re
sponse to an urgent message calling for
Immediate action, the local agent was no
tified to discontinue the call at Eureka
and to accommodate Coos Bay only in
the future.
Saturday has been decided upon as the
sailing date of the Alliance when she
'leaves Portland, and will make a round
trip between the two ports every week,
commencing next Saturday, September 22.
Agent F. P. Baumgartner left for Rai
nier last evening, where he is to look
after the loading of the steamer Nome
City, which is taking a cargo of rail
road ties for San Francisco. On this
voyage the Nome City will carry over
900,000 feet, which is 75,000 feet in excess
of what she was formerly able to carry.
The vessel has recently been equipped
with oil-burning furnaces, which enables
her to carry a larger cargo by utilizing
space which was formerly taken by coal.
MARINERS LIKE PORTLAND
Officers of the Steamer Visigoth
Think City Is Progressive.
The British steamer Visigoth, which
has been chartered to load lumber for
China by Balfour. Guthrie & Co., is on
her maiden voyage, having been launched
from the ways at Dumbarton on the
ClycTa last February. She is one of the
neatest appearing vessels of the tramp
variety that has ever called at this port,
having been constructed on modern lines,
combining a large carrying capacity with
light draft. She is' commanded by Cap
tain W. Rule, who is on his first visit
to the west coast of the Pacific, although
he has frequently commanded vessels on
voyages to the China sea, and he was
very much impressed with this city, but
his surprise at finding a growing com
mercial city was overshadowed by the
Impression of his second officer, George
Prince, who was' mate on the British
ship City of Benares, which made a voy
age to Portland about 20 years ago. Mr.
Prince stated that when he was here
at that time First street was the princi
pal avenue of the city, and to find such
a large place caused him to wonder at
the progress being made at this port.
He also stated that the sight of the ruins
of Snn Francisco was a great shock to
him, for on his last visit to the Cali
fornia metropolis it was one of the most
progressive cities he had ever seen.
The Visigoth is to commence loading
at the Eastern & Western Mill today,
and when she leaves will have over 3,000,.
000 feet of lumber as her outward cargo.
PORT AVILL ASK FOR BIDS
Contract to Be 'iiet for Supplying
Food to Dredger Crews.
The Port of Portland Commission will
hereafter advertise for bias on all food
supplies needed for the crews of the
dredgers and tenders. This was decided
upon by the commission at the last meet
ing and the secretary will advertise for
bids immediately. The contract will be
let to the lowest bidder and will be In
effect for one year, beginning 'October 1.
The proposal to advertise for bids for
the food supply was caused by the criti
cism of the board by Frank L. Smith,
who complained that all meats were pup
chased from John Driscoll, who is a
member of the commission. Commis
sioner Wheelwright Introduced the ques
tion and Commissioner rrlscoll moved
that all foodstuffs be bought of the low
est bidder, which was seconded and car
ried unanimously.
Several requests for use of the dredges
have been received, but as both are un
der contract to the United States en
gineers. It will be some time before the
petitioners can be accommodated.
The commission adjourned without tak
ing any action on the application for the
extension of the harbor line on the west
side of the river between the Burnslde
bridge and the Ainsworth dock.
AT7RELIA SAILS WITH LUMBER
Steam Schooner May Bring General
Cargo on Next Trip.
According to Captain Ericcson, of the
steam schooner Aurella, that vessel will
bring a cargo of merchandise on her next
viBit to this city.
She has been in the lumber-carrying
trade between Portland and San Fran
cisco during the past few months .and
on the up-trip has been coming light,
and on account of the freight congestion
at the Bay City she will be Impressed
Into service on her next trip North.
The Aurella sailed last evening with a
cargo of 620.000 feet of lumber for San
Francisco. In addition to carrying
freight on the return trip she may also
have a few passengers.
TWICKENHAM IS DOCKED.
Stranded Steamship Is Taken to
Esquimau for Repairs.
VICTORIA, B. G. Sept. 14. The
steamer Twickenham, which stranded on
San Juan Island when carrying sugar

commission on her old run between Port
land and San Francisco on October 14;
The American ship Berlin, from Alaska
ports, reached Portland last evening with
a cargo of salmon from the canneries of
the northern coast.
With a full cargo of freight the Ban
Francisco & Portland Steamship Com
pany's liner Costa Rica sailed for the Bay
City last evening. She will probably begin
carrying passengers about Ootober L
The French ship Laenneo finished load

This Man AVants to Hold Saloon
keeper Accountable.
PORTLAND, . Or.. Sept. 14. (To the
Editor.) In your editorial comment upon
the hop yard murder at St. Paul, you
are quite certain that the man who
killed the marshal ought to be hanged,
and his accessories punished according to
the degree of their participation In the
crime. To this statement, there can be
no objection, from the standpoint of
Justice and right, but what about the
saloon-keeper who furnished the whisky
that induced the crime? The evidence
also shows that the pistol with which
the crime was committed belonged to the
saloon man. Now, Isn't it a fact that the
saloon man furnished two of the elements
to the crime, and if so, why should he
not be held as an accessor'? You may
say that the motive to commit a crime
on his part is not proved, but as he pro
vided two of the elements against the
murder's act, which constituted the third
element in the tragedy, from a moral
standpoint, at least, he is the principal
accessory to the crime. He furnished
the brain-crazing liquor, and he had his
big pistol in sight in a convenient room,
so that the murderer could easily pro
cure it.
No good citizen should condone crime;
this the writer has no Intention of doing.
On the contrary, his sense of right and
justice leads him to demand that the man
who willingly furnished thei whiskey, and
who carelessly made the pistol available
for the drink-crazed murderer, should not
be exempt from blame.
The Oregonian does not even criticise
the saloon man, although it doubtless be
lieves with the writer, but for the in
fluence of the whisky and the conveni
ence of the saloon man's gun, the crime
might never have happened. We know the
newspapers do not like to place the blame
primarily where it belongs, for fear of
offending the whisky trust, of which the
St. Paul saloon man Is no doubt a mem
ber, but to the writer all trusts "look
alike."
Shield the liquor trafflo as we may,
there is no dodging the fact that whisky
Is responsible for nine-tenths of the
crimes that are committed, and from the
standpoint of "high license" even, the in
come derived by municipalities In our
state, is not a drop in the bucket com
pared to the money paid out to prosecute
and convict whisky inspired criminals.
But. as in the case of the St. Paul mur
der, the man who furnished the whisky
to promote the crime and the pistol which
was used to commit it. la regarded as en
tirely Innocent of all blame, as one would
Infer from reading the newspaper ac
counts of the grim tragedy.
It may be urged by the apologists for
the traffic, that it is a "legitimate busi
ness;" that the government licenses the
saloon. If the government Is the people,
as it is popularly supposed to be, then
are not the people partners with the
saloon in the crime of making men
drunk? Do not the people become pro
moters of crime, by their sanction of the
saloon, as a crime producer? Are not the
people obliged to pay the costs of detec
tion and conviction of whisky Induced
crime? The saloon man is the only bene
ficiary In the case. He makes a profit
out of the business, while the people are
forced to take care of the lunatics and
criminals which his traffic produces.
The counties which went "dry" at the
last election, are to be congratulated on
their stand for decency, order, and hu
manity. They, at least, have shown a.
sane disposition to govern themselves, ac
cording to the faith and belief of the
wise founders of the Republic.

Weather Change Means Sav
ing of Valuable Crop
of Oregon.
RAIN MAY PROVE BENEFIT
Many Pickers Hare Deserted the
Yards, but Enough Remain to
Gather the Balance ol
the Crop.
WEATHER FORECAST FOB HOP
BELT.
The weather in the hop districts of
Western Oregon and Washington to
day promises to be fair and warmer,
except near the coast. Northwest
winds will prevail. The barometer
has risen rapidly over the North Pa
clflo States in the last 12 hours and
the storm has crossed tha Rocky
Mountains eastward. The indications
'are for clearing weather In this dis
trict today.
The forecast of clearing weather today
has taken a great load off the minds of
the hop growers. It also probably means
a saving to this state of about 22,500,000.
Up to noon yesterday, disaster stared
the growers in the face, less than half the
crop had been saved and there was al
most a certainty that should the storm
continue, the remainder would have to be
sacrificed. With even one or two days
more or rain, in all probability the
pickers could not have been held to
gether. Saturday afternoon would have
seen a procession from the hop yards
that all the Inducements offered by the
farmers could not have stayed. . '
Fortunately for the growers, the change
in weather came at just the right time.
The desertions from the yards were
checked and picking was resumed In a
small way In many sections. Today,
harvest will doubtless be on again in
full blast, as the improved weather out
look has cheered up the pickers and
enough remain in the fields to gather the
remainder of the crop.
The short rain may, after all, prove a
blessing in disguise. Had It come just
before picking It would have vastly im
proved the quality of the entire crop, and
coming when it did, will. In the opinion
of many hop men, materially benefit the
hops that are still on the vine that is,
providing that hot weather does not now
set in. A sultry, muggy spell might work
almost as much damage now as a con
tinuation of the rain.
Oregon has passed through many hop
crop scares, but seldom has much mis
chief been wrought by bad weather in
harvest time. Generally the skies have
cleared away when things looked most

gloomy. There have been some excep
tions, however, and 1897 was one. Then It
began raining in the first week of picking
and continued almost without a break for
two weeks. Another bad year was 1899
when hops had to be picked under um
brellas. That year 10,000 bales of hops
were left on the vines. This was partly
due, however, to the low price of hops
that season. ,
That the hops standing on the vines
are not Injured by rain has been frequent
ly shown by the completion of a fine har
vest after a long storm. There Is almost
no limit to the time they will remain
sound on the poles if the weather con
ditions are right. In 1896 picking con
tinued in this state as late as October 20.
JfO LOSS IX MXX COUNTY
Fully Eighty Per Cent of the Crop
Around Albany Picked.
ALBANY, Or., Sept, 14. (Special.)-JJnn
County hopyards will suffer no loss from
the recent rains. Is the general opinion
among hopgrowers. Fully 80 per cent of
the crop in this locality Is picked, and
most of the yards will finish picking this
week. The most tardy will be through
picking next week. Ten to 20 per cent of
the hopplckers who were camped at Linn
County hopyards struck camp and re
turned to their homes when the rains con
tinued, but most of the pickers live in
near-by towns and go back and forward
between the yards and home. Most of the
hopyards of Linn County are near the
towns.
Tonight a steady wind is blowing from
the north, and fair weather Is looked for
to close the season.
HEAVY YIELD IX JOSEPHIXE
Rain of Three Days Has Done Xo
" Damage to the Crop.
GRANT'S PASS, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.)
The rain of the last three days has done
no damage to hops, other than to break
down some of the wires holding the vines.
No mold or lice has appeared. More than
half the acreage of hops was picked be
fore the rain began, and as the heaviest
vines were picked, ukoee remaining will
not be injured unless the rain holds on,
which Is not likely, as continued storms
are unknown here at this season' of the
year. .
The quality Is good and the yield 10 per
cent heavier than last year, while the
acreage is fully 10 per cent less than last
year. But few contracts have been made.
MARIOX COUNTY HOPS UNHURT
Weather Remains Cool, Xo Damage
Is Probable.
SALEM, Or.. Sept. 14. (Special.) Hop
growers In this vicinity who could be
communicated with tonight says that the
rain has not yet injured their crop and
that no damage is probable if the weather
remains cool. Should warm weather set
in, the hops will begin to mold and the
damage will be very serious.
With comparatively few exceptions the
growers have lost no pickers by reason
of the rain. Picking was conducted this
afternoon with short crews because many
remained at home, but when the weather
settles they will be back at work. Some

ALMOS
CERTAIN
of the campers have tried to leave, but
the growers have flatly refused to haul
them back to town. The loss In pickers
has all been from among those who live
near by and remained at home.
Continued bad weather would result in
(damage to the hops. There are reports
that mold has already appeared in some
yarasi but not In quantities sufficient to
cause alarm.
PICKIXG RESUMED IX YAMHlXIi
Harvesting Will Be General In the
Yards Today.
McMINNVILLE. Or.. Sept. 14. (Spe
cial.) For two days there has been prac
tically no hop-picking in Yamhill county,
owing to the steady rain. Today the
weather began clearing and In the after
noon picking began in many yards and
will be general by tomorrow. The rain
did not damage the hops in any way.
Although no pickers have left the yards
on account of the rain, there is a short
age of pickers, and some few yards have
not been able, to begin picking. They
will depend on' pickers who have finished
other yards.
The yield is better than was expected
and the hops are of good quality and
heavy. Most of the smaller yards have
about one-half the crop saved, but the
larger fields- have gathered only about
one-fourth or less of the yield. Probably
not over a quarter of the output in Yam
hill County has been gathered.
IX IXDEPEXDEXCE DISTRICT
Xo Loss of Pickers Owing to Rain
"Working Between Showers.
INDEPENDENCE, Or.. Sept. 14. (Spe
cial.) The hop situation looks better to
night. Picking has been going on in
nearly all the yards this' afternoon and
some picked between showers In the fore
noon. Should the weather clear up, as is
promised this evening, the rain would
prove a benefit rather than a detriment.
Pickers generally are staying with the
yards where they have tented, and there
will be practically no loss of pickers on
account of rain, unless it should continue
to the extreme of making camp life
miserable. About one-third of the crop
is already saved.
DEPEXD OX LOCAL- PICKERS
Falling Poles Cause Only Damage
at Xewberg.
NEWBERG, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.)
The hop crop in this vicinity has not
been materially Injured thus far by the
rains. Though some damage has been
done by falling poles, the wet weather
will have little effect In lessening the
picking force.
Local pickers are depended on largely
In this Immediate section, and they will
for the most part be found In the yards
again when picking can be resumed.
PICKIXG IS AT A STANDSTILL
Workers at HiHsboro Ready to Re
sume When Rain Ceases.
HILLSBORO, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.)
Hop picking has been practically at a
stands-cm In tnls county for three days,
although a few yards have picked at in
tervals . between showers. Probably 60
pickers have left for Portland, but near
ly all the help is local and ready for
work when rain ceases.
Fifty per cent of the crop is harvested.
A Northwest wind is blowing and there
Is promise of dry weather.
WASHIXGTOX CROP PARTLY IX
Sixty Per Cent of the Cowlitz Hops
Have Been Picked. ,
KELSO, Wash., Sept. 14. (Special.) Re
cent rains have stopped the hopplcking up
and down the Cowlltx River. The crop,
which promised an average yield ten days
ago, has been damaged, but not as seri
ously as might be supposed.
Reports today from Inman's, at Catlln;
Larson's, at Ostrander, and Patterson, at
Olequa, Indicate that 60 per cent of the
crop has already been safely garnered.
The remainder is in doubt.
Small Los9 at Castle Rock.
CASTLE ROCK, "Wash., Sept. 14. (Spe
cial.) Careful Inquiry into the hop situa
tion shows that while the rains of the
past few days have seriously retarded the
work of picking and curing, but little in
jury has as yet been done.
Mr. Smith, who owns a large yard near
Tucker, was in town this evening and
says but little mold has appeared In his
yard as yet, and he is not at all alarmed
If the rain will cease. Indications for
which are very favorable now. The pick
ers are not leaving the yards, but are
staying In hopes of good weather soon.
Aurora Crop Xearly Picked.
AURORA, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.)
Some pickers are leaving. Three-fourths
of the crop is saved and the hops are in
fine condition. Four or five days of good
weather will see the entire crop saved.
A small cyclone passed over this sec
tion today about 1 o'clock. No damage
was done except to uproot trees and blow
down fences.
Pickers Scarce at Chehalls.
CHEHALIS, Wash., Sept. 14. (Special.)
The rain has done little damage to the
hop icrop in this district, which was well
sprayed. Few hopplckers have left the
fields as yet, but if the rain does not soon
cease some injury will be done hops and
pickers will leave, which will cause great
loss to growers. Pickers are not Very
plentiful.
Pay Higher Wages at Eugene.
EUGENE, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.) Most
Lane County yards are picking, but are
very ahortbanded. Some are paying 1
cents a pound. Reports on the loss vary
from one-half to practically' nothing.
Some hops are now turning black. All de
pends on the weather, which was showery
today. Indications are for fair weather
tomorrow.
Xo Damage at Corvallis.
CORVALLIS, Or., Sept. 14. (Special.)
Showers today caused pickers in many of
the hopyards to be laid off shortly after
noon today. There was good picking in
all the yards yesterday. There is as yet
no complaint of damage.

Commends the Jury.
Judge Frajser in a speech of consider
able length yesterday afternoon com
mended a Jury in his court for finding
Mrs. Lulu Anderson guilty of contribut
ing to the delinquency of May MacDon
ald. a girl 15 years old. William Holt

CUTICURA REMEDIES
WORK WONDERS
Mr. A. C. Bamett, proprietor of a
general store in Avard, Oklahoma,
tells ia the following grateful letter
bow Cuticura cured him and his son
Of terrible eczemas:
"My little boy had enema. Hia
head was one solid sore, all over his
scalp; his hair all came out, and ho
Buffered very mucn. I had a physician
treat him, but at the end of three
months he was no better. I remem
bered that the Cuticura Remedies
had cured me, and after giving him
two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent,
according to directions, and using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment on him
daily, his ecxema left him, hia hair
grew again, and neither he nor myself
have had any eczema since.
As to his own case, Mr. Bamett says:
" I ' suffered with eczema, a burning,
itching, breaking out on my face for .
more than a year. I took treatment
from physicians for several months,
which did no good. I was then
advised to try Cuticura. I took
six bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, and
used Cuticura Soap and Ointment
freely every day. I began to improve
soon after starting to use them, and
when I had taken the six bottles of
the Resolvent my face had become
clear, I had good color, and all erup
tions had left me.
"We use the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment in our family now for
general use, and it keeps our skin
soft and healthy. I cheerfully recom
mend the Cuticura Remedies for all
cases of eczema, (signed) A. C. Bar
nett, Avard, Oklahoma, Mar. 30, 1905."
