In order to enforce its demands, union
labor of Portland has resorted to one of
its most popular weapons, the boycott the
occasion being the grainhandlers' ! strike
tho agency, Longshoremen's Union No.
-So. whose affiliation with the grain
handlers compells them to express their
sympathy in some material form.
As a result, the 200 members of Long
shoremen's Union No. 2S5 will hereafter
refuse to load or discharge cargo on any
deep-water craft entering this port with
which the stevedoring firm of Brown
& McCabe has anything to do.
Action to this effect was taken at a
largely-attended meeting of the union. It
was almost unanimously decided that not
a stroke of work should be done for this
lirm so long as It continues its efforts to
supply the grain docks of Portland with
men to handle cargo. It was further de
cided that the boycott should be conduct
ed in a peaceable manner, using moral
suasion with the men whom Brown & Mc
Cabe might employ to dissuade them
from going to work.
This action on the part of the union is
designed to tie up handling of cargo on
deep-water craft entering' this port, ex
cept coastwise steamers and the Oriental
liners Arabia. Aragonia and Numantia,
which are operated by the O. R. & N.
Company, and all coastwise tonnage.
Statement of Employing Stevedore.
Captain Johft A. Brown, of the Brown
& McCabe Company, said last night that
he was greatly surprised that the long
shoremen should strike on his firm.
"We have," he said, "always treated
our men the very best we knew how. We
have paid them 55 cents an hour and 85
cents an hour for overtime. This is a
better wage than is paid anywhere on the
Coast. We have loaned the men money
when they were in trouble and have aided
them in mny ways when they were hard
up, and this" is how they treat us. I re-,
gard it as u rtiinge commentary on the
trend of moderr. (industrialism. The time
seems to have cit;- when the employer
who looks out -rr the best interests of
his employes, -who treats them the best
all the way tbiough, gets treated the
worst fay them.
"As regards the rumor that we are at
tempting to colonize Japanese labor In
order to fill the places of the boycotting
longshoremen, I wish to say that It is a
damnable lie. We never have employed
Japanese or colored labor of any sort, and
we will go out of business before We will
resort to such extremities. Until tomor
row morning we will not know where we
are at. The boycott was declared Satur
day night, and we have had no opportu
nity to look over the situation today.
"We shall ask the men to go to work
in the morning at the usual time, and if
they do not we shall bend every effort to
get men to take their places. The long
shoremen have absolutely no grievance,
and I cannot understand why they should
throw us down in this manner."
Secretary Hall, of tho boycotting long
shoremen, said last night: "We havo
thrown down the gauntlet and will not
handle cargo on vessels now in port, nor
will our organization work for the 'un
fair' stevedores in any capacity. They
have been trying to break the grain
handlers' strike by advertising for men
to work on the grain docks, and, to pro
tect ourselves, we unanimously declared
a boycott. Tho boycott will continue in
effect until the grainhandlers' strike Is
settled, and we have money enough in
our treasury to remain idle for a long
time. In case the boys don't want to re
main idle there are plenty of jobs to be
had for the asking."
I'nion Xo. CGI Not Affected.
There are two longshoremen's unions In
Portland Xo. 2G4 and No. CG5. So far. No.
2tU has not participated in the present in
dustrial disturbance and It is hot likely
that it will, for it is employed to handle
freight exclusively for the O. R. & N..
and the union is under a contract which
does not expire for nearly a year. No.
I'M handles cargo for tho coastwise ves
sels and the big Oriental liners Arabia.
Aragonia and Numantia. and the move
ment of cargo on these steamers will not
be Interfered with.
As soon as No. LVu had declared Its boy
cott, official and formal notice of the ac
tion taken was transmitted to the officials
of No. 1'iU, but the latter organization has
taken no action as yet. In fact, none of
the officials of the union who were pres
ent at headquarters of No. 2S5 yesterday
afternoon would make any statement as
to what nctlon might be taken.
A fine point is involved, so far as No.
Ift4 is concerned. It is affiliated, through
the American Federation of Labor, with
the Grainhandlers' Union No V63 and
with the Longshoremen's Union No. "So,
and should declare a sympathetic strike
or a boycott at this port in order to be
consistent with the provisions of its char
tor. However, it has signed an agree
ment with the O. R. & N. which does not
expire until next year, and Is therefore
under obligation to refrain from partici
pating in any lahor quarrels in which af
filiated organizations may be involved.
So far as could be learned. No. 264 will I
take no action whatever regarding the
boycott established by No. 2tw.
How It Affects Exporters.
While tho boycott does not directly af
fect the Kxpnrters' Association, if carried
to great length it will mean a heavy loss
of business to the organization, which
STRIKERS
consists of the four big shipping- firms
of Balfour, Guthrie & Co., Kerr, Gifford
& Co., the Pacific Coast Elevator Com
pany and the Northwestern Warehouse
Company. These concerns are vitally af
fected, so far as the movement of freight
is concerned, and the new phase in the
situation materially increases their tribu
lations. They are chiefly concerned iif
having sufficient do! ice Drotection for the 'v
men who are working on the docks . t j J
keep freight consigned to or from theil
miner way, put tne only possibility
direct clash between the exporter? and
the grainhandlers and longshoremen bay I
come from the fact that the union ttrl
resent the presence of police and rivx.j
detectives on the docks to prerervy or
der. y
Mayor May TakO -Action .
Mayor Lane said last nig.it.f ''te has
not yet decided on any policy - to fcirest
for the intervention with 01 rkltf z'ion
of the strike. However, since the troub
has assumed a more serious aspect. It is
believed that the Mayor will take it up
and urge an agreement upon those inter
ested. It is not improbable that he will
l take some step In this direction today.

SIB JOHN LENG.
Sir John Lenc, the distinguished Scottish editor, and Liberal leader, who Is
now in Portland, will remain in the city the rest of the week. The Scots of Port
land are planning to entertain him, and Thursday at noon about 35 of them will
give a luncheon in his honor. Sir John is 78 years of age, and this fact alone
prevents his being lavishly entertained during his stay here. He has had a long,
hard trip and prefers to rest as much as possible. He will travel through the
Willamette Valley, which he visited 30 years ago, but he has not decided whether
he will make any stopovers at the cities which he visited as settlements when
first in the Northwest.- He may Douibly stop at Salem for a brief visit. When
here 30 years ago Sir John traveled through the Willamette Valley for a distance
of 120 miles by team. From the information he gathered while on the trip ho
wrote several articles relative to the resources and beautiful scenery of this sec
tion of the country, which were published In the Dundee Advertiser, of which
he is editor, and were later reprodused in book form. Sir John spent most of yes
terday afternoon In a drive about Portland and near points. He expresses him
self as being delighted with Portland and is much Impressed with the remarkable
growth that has been made since he was first bere.
is Christian character. All operations
of the Spirit are bent upon bringing
about this transcendant product Be
lief is not the ultimate of the Chris
tian life. Where this is the goal, creed
is emphasized at the expense of con
duct and character. Creed is only of
value as it proves an aid to the growth
of Christly character. Religion must
not spend itself in creeds, but ripen into
character, and the richness of a pure
and lovely life. True Christianity re
sults in "a symmetrical character, a
crystallization of all the Christian
graces.
"Christian character should never
represent a one-sided development.
One grace, when properly balanced
against others, may be very attractive
and of great moral force; but when
abnormally developed and at the ex
pense of others, will lose its beauty
and become repellant. .The religion of
Christ Is designed to touch, beautify
and unfold, proportionally, all our
mental, moral and spiritual powers.
To this end every grace has its part to
perform. Faith sit.1- supreme among
the graces. Her voice must be clear,
sweet and powerful, and lead out in
the flood of harmony. "Without faith,
it is impossible to please God.' But
faith must not monopolize her posi
tion, she needs the support of the other
graces to enable her to render her part
effectively, so close beside faith stands
knowledge as a pleasing alto. Close
beside knowledge stands godliness as
a sweet, uplifting, but penetrating
tenor. And cloae beside godliness
stands the all-powerful, all-majestic
basso, love. The remaining graces give
fullness to tho different parts and all,
under the leadership of the Spirit,
bring out the rich music of Christian
character. In Christ we hear the per
fect choir of- graces, and we approach
symmetry as we approach the charac
ter of Christ.
"The indissoluble relationship of
the graces must not be overlooked.
Each grace has its function, and is so
related that one cannot be strength
ened without reinforcing all, or weak
ened without weakening all.
"The need of the day is symmetrical
Christian character a life where the
human and divine elements are blend
ed like the colors in the rainbow.
Every personality should be a sacred
oratorio where every part is well
rounded, rich and full; where all the
laws of harmony are observed; where
there Is variety and range of expres
sion; where the musio courses the
shores of the Infinite, but where all is
a unit, a glorious oneness .'of creation
and performance."

tant Thoroughfare With
Washington. '
CONVERGE. AT 21 ST STREET
Extension Would Cross End of Mult
nomah Field and Cut Off
Corner of the Old Exposi
tion Building.
A movement has originated among
property-holders along Morrison street to
extend that thoroughfare from its present
western terminus at Chapman directly
DISTINGUISHED VISITOR
through to Washington street. The proj
ect has been taken up by a newly formed
organization, known as the Morrison
Street Improvement Association, and. is
one of the purposes for which that body
was formed.
Because of the position of Morrison
street, which is second only to Washing
ton among the business thoroughfares, its
proposed extension lsthe most Important
street improvement that has been consid
ered in Portland recently. The idea has
been taken up in a vigorous way by the
men most interested in seeing it carried
through. Their efforts have already met
with a response which gives encouraging
promise of success, although it will take
some time to complete the details and
bring the matter down to a definite basis.
The project, as now outlined, is to con
nect Morrison street with Washington
with as little curve as possible, thus
making it one of the through east-and-west
streets of the city. To accomplish
this. It will be necessary to dedicate a
right of way through the extreme north
end of the Multnomah field and will also
perhaps necessitate the tearing away of
& corner of the old Exposition building.
If Morrison street were extended in a
straight line it would converge with
Washington at Twenty-first street.
Benefit .to Property Affected.
The cost and exact route of the exten
sion are yet to be worked out by the pro
moters of the scheme, but it Is believed
that the expense will be very low com
pared with the benefit which the prop
erty all along the thoroughfare will de
rive. The most expensive part of the im
provement, if it is carried out, will be a
fill of considerable depth across the land
owned by the Multnomah Club.
According to H'. M. Cake, president of
the Morrison Street Improvement As
sociation, that body is working to bring
about the desired extension with the
support and hearty co-operation of all
property owners affected. Instead of
attempting to force the opening of the
street by bringing condemnation suits
against the property, the promoters are
working to get the approval of all
owners so that the street can be
opened by mutual agreement.
The line which the extension will
follow will be at the end of the Mult
nomah grounds and will therefore not
Injure the athletic field of the club.
Neither will it depreciate the value of
the Exposition building, it is said, as
the benefits of another street frontage
will far surpass the loss necessary for
any change in the property. The own
ers of both properties will be asked
to co-operate in the movement, as will
also the King estate which owns some
of the land through which it will
pass.
Up to the present work upon the
project has been carried on Informally.
Mr. Cake and his associates have con
sulted with, various property owners
and report that on every hand the
proposition has received indorsement.
This week, liowever, a committee will
be appointed which will take up the
matter of securing the consent of all
interested property owners, after which

I am wise1, you see, to the end. And reasonable, too, I hope.
And brave. And brave, I tell you. Bo you think I will be a

surveys will be run and the matter
placed on a definite footing.
H. M. Cake Discusses Plan.
"I regard the extension of Morrison
street as the most beneficial movement
ever taken up for those interested in
that section," said Mr. Cake last night,
"and it will also be a benefit to the
city at large. Every foot of property
along the street will have a greater
value if it can be opened up so that
it will be a long through street, giving
connection to the heights and the
northwestern part of the city equally
as convenient as Washington street.
The more I have Investigated the mat
ter the more I havo been impressed
with its desirability, and all whom I
have consulted regard it in the same
light."
One object of the extension is to get a
better car service for Morrison street.
With a direct connection with Washing
ton street it is proposed that some of
the heavy street-car traffic on the latter
thoroughfare be diverted to Morrison,
giving a better service with the north
western portion of the c'.ty, and also with
Portland Heights and' Council Crest, dis
tricts which are sur( ' to grow in impor
tance. It is suggested that a loop service
might also be arranged, some of the cars
going down Morrison or Washington and
returning on the other street- Kesidents
of the East Side have been clamoring for
a through service out Morrison street,
and it Is possible that the extension would
facilitate? such an arrangement.
The Morrison Street Improvement Asso
ciation was organized a few weeks ago
and has been very active since that time
getting this and other projects under way.
The officers are: President, H- M. Cake;
vice-president, P. J. Mann; secretary, A.
W. Taylor: treasurer, D. W. Tilford. The
membership is made up of those owning
property within 100 feet of Morrison
street.
Among the other objects of the organ
ization is better lighting for Upper Mor
rison street. It is probable that this
will be brought about soon and that
strings of incandescent lights will be
strung along both sides of the street, as
they are in the heart of the business dis

ELECTRICAIi FACILITIES TO
GROW WITH PORTLAND.
Eastern Owners of Allied Interests
Have Larger Plans for Prop
erties Here.
Every demand for electrical power and
street-railway extension caused bjr the
growth of Portland will be promptly and
thoroughly made, according to the state
ments of C. M. Clark and his associates
in the Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company, who are now in this city. No
definite new steps are announced by the
Pennsylvania and New York capitalists,
but they give every assurance that they
have great faith in the future of Port
land and the state, and stand ready even
to increase their aJready large holdings
here.
The party now in Portland includes C.
M. Clark, J. S. Clark and P. H. Clark,
of Philadelphia, and Albert Strauss, rep
resenting Seligman & Co., of New York.
They have been here since Friday evening
and expect to remain throughout the
present week. The direct purpose of their
visit is to complete the legal details of
the $30,000,000 merger which was formed
some time ago and which controls all the
large electrical interests of Portland and
the Willamette yalley. The consolidation
of all of the properties was effected pre
viously and only minor legal arrange
ments remain to be effected.
Yesterday the party visited the gigantic
power plant now under construction at
Cazadero and were, very favorably im
pressed with the work that has been
done. They also stopped at The Oaks
on the return trip and were surprised to
find so extensive a resort in a city the
size of Portland. They asserted that it
surpasses in beauty and extent any sim
ilar recreation park except in the very
largest cities of the country.
"When we complete the Cazadero plant,"
said C. M. Clark last night, "we shall
command a total of 30,000 horsepower trib
utary to Portland. As the demand in
creases, it will be met immediately by
our system by the addition of a unit to
our plant at Oregon City. Portland is
very favorably situated in regard to pow
er resources, and I may say in that con
nection that electrical power is being fur
nished in this city, Including all of its
uses, on a lower average of cost than
anywhere else in the United States, and
that means In the world.
"We have no suburban extensions to an
nounce, and in fact are not taking any
up. We have plenty to do to meet the
growing needs of the city without ex
tending our electrical roads outside. Let
others build the suburban lines; we have
the power and can supply all such pro
jects as soon as they are ready for opera
tion. Arrivals and Departures.
