BOTH ROADS ARE LIKELY Portland Man Has Plan to Build From This City Up Salmon River, Using Water Power From That Stream. Two electric railways to Mount Hood are planned to be built within the next two years. One will reach the vicinity of Government Camp from Portland, and the other will reach the Eastern side of Mount Hood In the vicinity of Cloud Cap Inn. Dr. McCorkle, of the East Side, who ie handling a proposition to build an electric line from Portland to Mount Hood, has a force of surveyors at work on the Salmon River toward Mount Hood searching for a 3 per cent grade. The surveyors have found a 4 per cent grade, but this is not what is wanted. He ex pects to be able to make definite an nouncement as to what will be done within a month. Dr. McCorkle is very sanguine that he and his associates will be able to start the preliminary work on the road in the early part of next year. He has been quietly working on this proposition for the past 12 months. Abundant financial backing has been secured and railways centering at Portland are interested in the outcome, he says, and hope to see this Portland line built before the ex position opens at Seattle. Railway man agers have informed Dr. McCorkle that they can guarantee that over 200,000 tour ists will visit Mount Hood over this line every year. Ample power has been bonded on Sal mon River, where there is a drop of over feet, so that the power station can be built within nine miles of the route at small expense. Dr. McCorkle con templates a big resort at Welch's place, where he has an option on 1200 acres and where there are several mineral springs. Dr. McCorkle has had assurances that he can get into Portland without diffi culty, and that he will be given a fran chise over the county road. A spur will be laid into the county quarry at fCelly Rutte. and the line will probably fnrnish street-car facilities for the southeastern district, incluaing Mount Scott. Arleta. Kern Park and the section along the' Powell Road now suffering from inadequate car service. However, this end of the road has not been settled, but a strong effort will be made to have the. main line or a spur from it touch this district and give it relief. For several years parties have been figuring on building an electric railway from Hood River up through the lower and upper valley. Some preliminary ex aminati&n of a route has been made, and many of the prominent residents of the Upper Hood River Valley are pulling for this electric railway, that would land somewhere near Cloud Cap Inn. Many Eastern men have made investments in the. Upper Hood River Valley, which is being developed. Fruit lands are being cleared almost up to the timber line on slopes of Mount Hood, and it is an im mense country, even larger than the lower valley. It has been found that apples will do well there. A road has been cut out nearly to Lost Lake and will be completed next year. The leading residents say that an elec tric railway will be- built from Hood River to Mount Hood, so that Portland tourists will have the choice of two routes to Mount Hood. Dr. McCorkle. of Port land, was asked to interest himself in this Mount Hood project, but he informed the parties that it would be impracticable for him to give them assistance, as his own project was all he cared to handle. As for the Portland road, there is ample power in the Upper Hood River Valley. Both lines, which are likely to be built, will run through some of the most beau tiful country in the world, full of scenic wonders and natural attractions not met with anywhere else on the globe. MRS. BRADBURY'S FUNERAL AVell-Known Pioneer Woman Mourned by Many Friends. Is The funeral of Mrs. Emeline Bradbury, who died Friday, October 12, was held at her late residence, 472 Salmon street, yes terday afternoon. Rev. E. L. House, of the First Congregational Church, officiat ing. In the death of Mrs. Bradbury. Port land loses another of its substantial pio neers, and her death will be sincerely mourned by a large circle of personal friends and relatives and by a host of the older residents who have known and re; vered her for many years. She had reached the advanced age of 73 years, and for the past year had been confined to the house practically all of the time. Her daughters, Mrs. S. N. Forbes and Mrs. F. G. Buffum, with whom she had lived so many years, have attended her personally in her declining health, and they have the sympathy of their many friends in their grief. Mrs. Bradbury lived many years in Mil waukie. where her husband. William Bradbury, was engaged in the milling business and was a partner of the late E. M. Burton. In later years she removed to Portland and purchased property on Salmon street, where she lived with her daughters until her death. She was an active member of the First Congrega tional Church and a woman universally beloved for her many good qualities of heart and mind and for her refined and attractive personality.

TABOR Ml SUPERINTENDENT MONTEENTH IS ENTHUSIASTIC. Makes Visit to Proposed Sit and Finds It an Ideal Park Location. "I think Mount Tabor is an ideal place for a park, and the cost of developing it would be comparatively small. Owing to its great natural beauty. It seems to me that Portland should secure this spot be fore it is too late." The foregoing remark was made yes terday afternoon by Mr. Monteenth. the new superintendent of the City Park, as he stood on the highest elevation of Mount Tabor. He was escorted there bv Councilmen Wallace and Kellaher and H. W. Hodges. J. L. Eastman. G. J Tate and Frank J. Perkins, of the Mount Tabor Push Club. Mr. Perkins was the guide of the party, and was able to lead the members to new beauties and dells, that those who had frequently been over the ground never dreamed were there. The party followed the road that winds around the east and south sides of. the slope of the elevation, until the top, where the old Smith dwelling stands. . was reached. With maps, the guide pointed out to Su perintendent Monteenth the various tracts, and where it was proposed to erect a big reservoir for Portland's water sup ply, leaving the balance of about 120 acres for a park. The party then went down on the west side into the dell where the Woodmen of the World held their big initiation sev eral years ago. Other declivities and ele vations were visited, so that Superintend ent Monteenth was able to get a complete idea of the tract proposed for the site of the reservoir and park, and he did not hesitate to say that one of the finest parks in the United States can be made on the top of Mount Tabor at compara tively small expense. His practiced eye took in the points of beauty, and he saw how the whole could be worked out on a comprehensive park plan. "The main cost," said Mr. Monteenth." will be in getting started. After that the expense of maintenance would not be great. I would cut out the underbrush and retain as much of the natural beauty of the tract' as ts possible. Portland will some day have 500.000 people, and Mount Tabor will be right at hand and can be reached within a few minutes, and that is what the people need." The Mount Tabor Push Club will send a committee of 15 to the meeting of the Initiative One Hundred on October 19 and urge the organization to aid in securing the top of Mqunt Tabor for a reservoir site and for park purposes. neither tasted it nor got much of the paint of his hands, he did not suffer any serious consequences from his mis take, but he does not recommend car bolic acid for mixing paints. It is too expensive. Mixes Paint With Acid. Mixing paint with carbolic acid is not considered by painters either prof itable or safe, but it was done on a small scale last week. Having a little Job of painting to do, a novice on the East Side undertook to mix his own paint. He picked out a bottle from several others, which he took for oil, and mixed his paint with it. The mix ture worked all right, and the painter would probably never have -known his mistake but the paint wouldn't dry, when he discovered that he had used carbolic acid instead of oil. As he TAKE THEIR MEN AWAY What Hood River Employers Say About a Complaint. HOOD RIVER. Or- Oct. 14. (Special.) In The Oregonian of October 11 we no tice an item headed "Lure With Higher Wages." This item, we think, has done us a great injustice, in that it places us in a bad light before the people of Hood River Valley, whereas, when they know the truth about the matter, they can ap preciate our situation and see that we are not at fault. We have not had any trouble in getting all the help we need for our sawmill and orchard work, but have sustained considerable annoyance and in convenience by having other employers come onto our premises and go to our men, working wherever they may be, and hiring them from us. During the last month we have been annoyed mora than ever by having different people come on our place and hire our help. So much of this has been going on that it began to look to us as though it was the custom here. We have had but two Japanese working for us for the past eight months. Some time ago. when we needed help the worst, one apple-grower (the one we be lieve to have the grievance, and the one we think wrote this article for The Ore gonian) sent his foreman to our place and hired two of our best workers from us. We felt at the time that it was a very small trick for one employer to play upon another, but said nothing and went along with our work as best we could. All that we have ever done in the way of taking away other people's help was to send to this one party and get back our two Japs that he had previously so underhandedly taken from us. We are. comparatively speaking, new-comers in this valley, and have' made it our home. We expect to treat every one with con sideration and courtesy, and if in future the party having this grievance will leave our help alone we assure him that he nor any other employer will have cause to complain at us again on this score. As to our prevailing on his men to strike, this is not true. It Is also untrue that we ever said that "It is a case of supply and demand, and that if we are willing to pay more money for labor than the ranchers we are entitled to the men." We are ranchers ourselves, and do not ask any more than others. ELPPA ORCHARD CO.. Inc.. Charles J. Calkins. Secretary-Treasurer. Stat Refuses Right of Way. OLTMPIA. Wash.. Oct. 14. (Spe cial.)

Number of Other Substantial Struc tures Are Being Erected All Over East Side. The organization of the Catholic Toung Men's Club, of St. Mary's Parish, of Al bina, has been effected with a large and enthusiastic membership. At the last meeting of the club a charter list of members was opened and all present joined. The object of the club is to erect a young men's clubhouse near St. Mary's Church, which will cost about $10,000. Architect Velguth has prepared plans for this building, and the young men have taken hold with enthusiasm. Business men and prominent residents are lending the enterprise much encouragement. The concrete foundation for the bank building for George Bates on Williams avenue and Knott street has been com pleted. It will be of brick and an at tractive structure. The Mississippi-Avenue Congregational Church, which recently purchased a quar ter block near the church building, has not decided whether to build there or not. The church owns 150x100 where the build ing now stands. It has been almost de cided it would be better to build a big church on the present site and not move to another place. The matter will likely be settled at the annual meeting. The Central M. E. Church has a committee out to select a new location for its build ing in Upper Albina. Concrete foundations for the four-story cereal mill to be erected for the Acme Mill Company on Railroad street and Albina avenue, are about completed. The contractor is pushing the work. With the warehouse adjoining, the plant will be an important addition to Albina in dustries. It will represent an outlay of about $40,000. The new building erected for the rail road shops in Albina on the terminal ground is being filled with machinery. The buildings were completed some time ago and the machinery is now being transferred from the old shops. J. F. Graham, superintendent of motive power, expects to have the remaining locomo tives of the HaiTiman lines converted into oil-burners by January 1. The new brick carbarn in North Al bina is completed and occupied, which provides nearly double the room for cars. Alongside the new barn the Pacific States Telephone Company is completing its ex change for that portion of the city. Dwellings are going up all through thi section. land, land. Kaiserhof W. B.
