INTRODUCES HIGH
LICENSE MEASURE
Wills Submits New Saloon Or
dinance to Council
Committee.
LIKELY TO BECOME LAW
1
Bolons Defer Action In Order to Gain
Time for Consideration of Bill.
Retail Liquor Dealers
to Pay $1000.
Another attempt Is being made to raise
retail liquor licenses In Portland, and
this time It gives every promise of suc
cess. The liquor license committee of the
Council took the matter up yesterday,
and If the plan Is carried out the annual
payment of each saloon, to the city will
be advanced from JbOO to $1000 on Jan
uary L
Councilman 'Wills introduced the ordi
nance for the higher license, and will
work for Its passage by the Council. The
measure was not acted upon at the meet
ing yesterday, as it is a lengthy docu
ment, applying to the regulation ol sa
loons and more time was desired for its
consideration. The effect of the ordinance,
however, is the same as the present law
In all Important particulars, with the ex
ception of the increased fee.
When the measure was presented there
was practical unanimity among the mem
bers of the committee in favor of ad
vancing the license. However, there was
some difference of opinion expressed as to
the exact figure at which It should be put,
and sveral different plans were suggested.
"We have considered this matter many
times," said Mr. Vaughn, "and it is about
time we were taking some action. The
funds of the city have been rather low
this year, and the revenue from the sa
loon business will be much Increased If
the licenses are raised. Some have argued
that so many firms would go out of busi
ness that the receipts would not be In
creased, but I do not believe that many
saloons would close."
Favors Suburban Saloons.
"It might close the ones that are least
objoctionable," suggested Councilman
Gray. "The small beer saloons in the sub
urbs would probably be forced out of
business, and these are the least harmful
in the city. It would certainly be hailed
with delight by the big dives and down
town saloons, for it would increase their
business by driving out small competi
tors." "I am not so sure that the suburban sa
loons are wanted, anyway," replied Coun
cilman Vaughn. "The more saloons that
are driven out of the residence districts
the better. I have been thinking of In
troducing an ordinance limiting saloons
to a certain district, as they are limited
In Seattle, where liquor is allowed to be
sold only in the fire limits."
"Portland does not need a law like
that," was the opinion of Mr. Gray. "We
have the local-option law, and if any dis
trict does not want saloons, all it has to
do Is to vote them out. These small sa
loons are certainly the least objection
able." -.iter a little more discussion, it was
voted to postpone action until the next
meeting. In the meantime copies of the
proposed ordinance will be prepared and
a copy given to, each of the Councilmen.
Every indication is that the measure
will finally pass. Many previous attempts
to enact such a measure have failed, but
the sentiment for a higher license is now
more favorable among the Council. One
of the Influences which will work for the
passage of the measure is the fact that
a movement has been Inaugurated to raise
the license to 11200 by the initiative at
the next election. This was called to the
attention of the "fcommlttee by Councilman
' Bennett, who asserted that if a high
license were nQt voted by the Council it
would probably be passed over the heads
of the members.
Defends Italian Saloon.
No action was taken towards revoking
the license of the Italian saloon at Fourth
and Sheridan streets. A. B. Ferrara.
counsel for the proprietors, claimed that
practically all the disturbance- in the
neighborhood was caused by the saloon
ot Fifth and Sheridan streets, the license
of which was revoked at the last Council
meeting. He also asserted that the dis
turbances reported by the Chief of Police
as occurring In the Fourth-street place
should be attributed to the other saloon,
and the matter was held over in order to
have the niof verify his report.
It developed that a fight occurred in the
Fourth-street saloon last Sunday night
This was asserted by A. R. Mcndenhail
to have been started by the friends of
the saloonkeeper at Fifth and Sheridan
streets, to use as an argument in having
the license of the neighboring saloon meet
the same fate thnt ills own did. He also
asserted that V. K. Strode, who appeared
against the saloon, was in the employ of
the proprietor of the Fifth-street place.
The committee granted the following
licenses: May & Van Zandt, 2S9 Stark
street: W. F. Davison, Front and Colum
bia street, and J. W. Doyle. 122S Fourth
street. The application of Nelsen Hursey
for & saloon license at Willamette boule
vard and West avenue, was disallowed
on recommendation of Councilman
Vaughn.
WANTS ADMISSION TO JAIL
Christlun Worker Kept Out by the
Sheriff, Protests.
PORTLAND, Ort. 11. (To the Editor.)
W1U you kindly allow me to use the col
umns of your worthy paper for the purpose
of appealing to the public In a matter that
so directly affects society that It calls for
this appeal from me?
I am a Christian, and for 18 years past
have answered the call of my Master in a
manner which to me best carries out the
teaching, of Htm whom I represent. I go to
the fallen, to the criminal, the prisoner,
the street vagrant, and carry the message
to Him for whom life to outward appear
ance holds least. In my work J am accom
panied by my daughter, who tells the Gos
pel meaaage In songs. Sue Is a girl of 21.
and her heart is In the work. Together
with her and several other Christian work
ers, it has been my habit to call on Sun
days, and somottmes other days, at the
county Jail, there to pray with the pris
oners and sins songs of hope and forgive
nesa. I have made a specialty of carrying
the gospel message to prison cells in many
states of the Union, and throughout Nor
way and other countries It has been my
privilege to do this work, and 1 will say
that my efforts have been crowned with
success.
Under the administration of Tom Word as
Sheriff and Jailor Grafton, who served un
der him, admission to the county Jail was
never refused us. To many a wayward son
and daughter we have carried the message
cf hope, and nothing has ever occurred to
mar tills privilege which has alway been
mine.
Some time ago a cot was smuggled out
of the county Jail in a manner unknown to -1
the -minorities. The blame for this waa in
part attached to us, and as a result Sheriff
Stevens and Jailor Mitchell refused us ad
mission to the Jail for purposes before men
tioned. We know absolutely nothing about
this not, and we feel that this privilege
should not be denied us and that all
Christian people will extend to ns their
sympathy In our desire to carry oa our
work among the prisoners.
This appeal is not made with any ani
mosity or 111 feeling towards Sheriff Stevens,
but simply for :he purpose of enlisting th
sympathies of right-thinking people In this
community and asking their assistance to
carry to the prisoners of Multnomah County
a word of hop and a song of cheer.
T. O. SANDS.
In reply to this comirlunicatton. Sheriff
Stevens stated be was forced to exclude
Mr. Bands from the jail not because of
any ill will toward the gentleman, but
because of the letter that was taken from
the JalL Recently a well-planned Jail
break was discovered Just In time to
prevent the prisoners f rm escaping, and
as a great many desperate men have been
confined in the Jalf of late it is neces
sary for the Sheriff to use every means in
his power to guard against jallbreaks.
Mr. Stevens says that he does not believe
that Mr. Sands himself carried the letter
from the Jail but that some of the women
who were with, him old. , Most of the
county prisoners are at the Kelly Butte
rockplle and many of the prisoners in
Jail are Federal charges and are not sup
posed to see any one without a written
permit. The prisoners are not altogether
without religious consolation, for Mrs.
Smith, an old-time gospel worker, visits
the Jail every other Sunday.
Mr. Stevens says he Is glad to see the
prisoners receive religious instruction but
that he was forced to take this step to
protect himself.
STRANGE SLUMP IN LOCAL MAT
RIMONIAL MARKET.
Weddings for Current Month Fewer
In Number Than Occurred
Last October.
There has been an alarming decrease in
the number of marriage licenses issued
In the County Clerk's office during the
first 15 days of the present month com
pared with the same period during Octo
ber, 1905. At the close of the official day,
yesterday afternoon, Chief Deputy Coun
ty Clerk Fred W. Prasp reported there
was a shortage of 22 marriage licenses
under the old record. 131 having been is
sued from October 1 to 15 last year, while
only 109 have been Issued to date this
month.
Numerous reasons are given for the
slump. Several declare that the Exposi
tion last year caused many to come to
Portland to wed. but this is not thought
to have made the lack of Cupid knots, aa
the Summer months kept up a good aver
age with those of last year. Deputy Clerk
Cupid C. Rose, who issues more marriage
licenses than any other man in Oregon,
is of the opinion that the hoppicklng- sea
son was a deathdealer to the local wed
ding mart; he saya that many young peo
ple were married while away gathering
in the amber herb, thus buying their
licenses in other counties.
The first local October bride and groom
were Bert L. Hull, aged 23, and Edith R.
Horsey, aged 20. The first happy couple
of the vintage of October, 1905, were An
drew W. Parks and Marie N. Murtin.
Mrs. Keller Asks for Divorce.
Amelia Keller and Gustave Keller have
decided to separate. Mrs. Keller yester
day filed, through Attorneys Northrup &
Northrup,. an amended complaint In the
Circuit Court, asking for a divorce from
Gustave Keller and for HOOO alimony. The
couple were married in New York in
Mach. 1889. and have two children. The
defendant has been In Dresden, Germany,
since January, 1902. Mrs. Keller declares
that at the time of their marriage her
husband was' penniless, but that she had
11500, which was invested in a way thai
Increased many fold. She alleges that
Keller took a share of the profits to Ger
many with him. She asks for the care
of the children.
Wong Chon Quen Is Freed.
The case of the state against Vong
Chon Quen was dismissed yesterday,
owing to the fact that the complaining
witness had left Oregon. Quen waa con
victed of the crime of assault with intent
to kill upon Lee Mon Lee, on May 12, 1905.
The convicted Chinese was sentenced to
pay a fine of $500 and serve 250 days In
the County Jail. The case was appealed
to the Supreme Court, where the decision
of the lower court was reversed and a
new trial ordered. W. W. Banks and
Long & Sweek were the defendant's at
torneys. Alibi Will Be Defense.
AUie Cramer, through Attorney John F.
"Watts, yesterday filed a petition in the
Circuit Court asking that certain wit
nesses be ordered to appear and testify
in her defense whenever she is tried on
the charge of having set fire to her own
property with the intent to defraud an
insurance company. The alleged crime
was on June 9, and the defendant's de
fense will be an alibi, she having peti
tioned the court to order Mrs. C. Ander
son vand Policemen Adams and Kiddings
to appear and testify as to her where
abouts at the time of the fire.
May Settle With Creditors.
Owing to the efforts that are being
made to settle with the remaining credi
tors, the auction of the office furniture
and fixtures of the Gelser-Hendryx In
vestment Company was postponea until
next Friday at 2 o'clock P. M. The sale
was to have taken place yesterday after
noon, and Deputy Sheriff Harvey More
land went down to the Elks building,
where the company's offices were located,
for the purpose of selling the property,
but as the debts of the firm may be set
tled the delay of four days was allowed.
NEW BANK FOR SELLWOOD
Institution Will Prove Convenience
to South Fast Side.
Sellwood is to have a bank within a
week. Fixtures have been ordered and a
location secured for a new brick building.
It is planned to open for business y
October 20.
H. P. Palmer, manager of the Sellwood
Townslte Company, is one of the active
promoters of the new institution. Asso
ciated with him in the bank will be W.
Cooper Morris and other prominent busi
ness men of Portland. C. B. Lucas, late
City Auditor of St. Joseph, Mo., is on his
Ay to Portland, and will become one of
the officers of the new bank.
The Institution will b started with a
capital stock of either 130,000 or J25.000,
and will transact a general banking busi
ness. In view of the number of industries
that have been located at Sellwood, It is
believed the bank will be a great conve
nience to the residents of that part of the
city.

BOILDS OWN ROAD
Coos Bay Company Cannot De
pend Upon Southern Pacific.
HARRIMAN SERVICE POOR
In Order to Get Its Loss and Coal
to Market, Lumber Concern
Has to Construct Rail
road for Itself.
For the first time in the history of
the Pacific Coast and probably the initial
instance In the annals of railroading In
the United States a corporation has re
taliated against a common carrier for
alleged' discrimination by constructing an
independent line. The Coos Bay Lum
ber & Coal Company announced yester
day its intention to build a line five
miles in length from the vicinity of
Beaver Hill to South Slough, an arm of
the bay, and all because the Coos Bay,
Roseburg & Eastern, a recently acquired
Southern Pacific property, is unable to
provide a service sufficient for the' needs
of the lumber concern.
The company recently entered Into a
contract with the Simpson Lumber Com
pany, of North Bend, for the delivery
"of 80,000,000 feet of logs annually, the
contract being made for six years. The
officials say the management ot the C.
B. R. & E. has not been changed since
the system was purchased from the
Sprockets Interests by Mr. Harrhnan and
If the service is not . any worse, they
maintain that it certainly has not im
proved. They cite the fact that recently
more cars were delivered to the road,
40 in all, which the lumber concern pur
chased in Seattle, and though the rolling
stock was bought by the company for
its exclusive use, the officers have not
received any benefit from the outlay
Construction of the new line will be
rushed and it is hoped to have it In
operation by Spring. The estimated cost
Is between 110,000 and J12.000 a mile. Steel
has been ordered. In addition to two
Shay geared locomotives, one 45 and the
other 35 tons, and 40 logging cars. ' It
is stipulated in the right of way con
tracts, which have been recorded for the
entire distance, that a freight and pas
senger service shall be maintained, but
this will be provided for In connection
with the logging traffic and it will re
sult In Beaver Hill having two outlets
to the bay.
The management of the lumber com
pany says the logs cut near Beaver Hill
will be hauled to the bay and dumped
and no towage will be required, as the
action of the tides will - furnish enough
momentum for the rafts and they can
be taken to destination on two tides.
As there is good water in South Slough,
it is also hoped to secure a large share
of the coal business, which originates at
Bunker Hill. It Is said there Is 200.000.000
feet of timber already contracted for and
several million feet in prospect, all of
which would have been routed by the
Harriman line had It displayed a dis
position to provide for the business. The
company has a mile of road built and In
operation into the timber belt from the
main line and it is given out that other
logging interests have asked to be per
mitted to route their cut over the pro
posed road.
The Coos Bay. Roseburg & Eastern
was purchased by the Southern Pacific
to be operated in conjunction with the
Oregon Western, which is building from
Drain to Marshfield and will probably
be completed in two years. The new
acquisition extends from Marshfield to
Myrtle Point with a branch to Beaver
Hill.
EQUIPMENT FOR NEW ROAD
Purchases of Rolling Stock Are
Made for Salem Line.
Purchases of rolling stock for the Ore
gon Electric Railroad, In course of con
struction between Portland) and Salem, are
being closed by W. S. Barstow, who is
spending a few days in the city in com
pany with George C. Moffatt, of Motfatt
& White, principal stockholders in the
system. Six passenger cars have been
ordered of the most modern type,, in ad
dition to ten trailers and two electrlo
locomotives. The motor coaches will be
handsomely finished and will be pro
vided with baggage room, smoker and
chair apartment, with washrooms and
conveniences provided In first class steam
equipment, while they will be finished In
the same style as Pullman sleepers, even
to the same type of windows.
The cars will be 56 feet in length and
geared so as to make 60 miles an hour.
Only four cars would be required to
maintain an hourly service but it is pro
bable two cars will be employed on short
local runs, one out of Portland and the
other between Salem and TVoodburn. The
locomotives will have a capacity of 600-horse-power
and are intended for hauling
freight trains, though In the event of a
rush they can pull trailers. The road Is
being built for the operation of the
heaviest trains, being up tothe standard
of transcontinental lines. 'Bridges and

WILLIAM M'MTJRRAY RETTJHXS
General Passenger Agent Tells of
Chicago Railroad Meetings.
William McMurray, general passenger
agent of the Harriman lines in the North
west, has returned from Chicago where
he went three weeks ago to attend the
regular session of the Transcontinental
Passenger Association. With the excep
tion of the special rates announced for
religious conventions and the determina
tion to continue the colonist rates to the
Northwest next season, Mr. McMurray
says there was nothing transacted of
general Interest.
At the Harriman "family, gathering,"
held at the office of J. C. Stubbs, traffic
director, the intricacies of the Hepburn
amendment to the Interstate Commerce
law were reviewed at length but nothing
was decided on and Mr. Stubbs, accom
panied by Charles 8. Fee, passenger traf
fic manager of the Southern Pacific, went
to Washington to meet with the commis

Catarrh cannot be washed away with sprays, inhalations and such treat
ment, nor can it be smoked f out with medicated tobacco, cigarettes, etc.
When you attempt to cure Catarrh with such things you are wasting time
and allowing the impurities and poisons in the blood, which produce the
disease, to get so firmly rooted as to become not only a disgusting trouble,
but a very dangerous one. The annoying symptoms of ringing noise9 in the
ears, "hawking and spitting," headaches, mucus dropping back into the
throat, impairment to the senses of 'taste and smell, and a feeling of general
debility, prove that there is a deep-seated cause for Catarrh. This cause is
a polluted and unhealthy condition of the blood, and the disease cannot be
cured until this is removed. The only way to get rid of Catarrh permanently
is to purify the blood, and S. S. S. is the ideal remedy for this purpose. It
soon clears the system of all impurities, purges the blood of all catarrhal
matter and poisons, and effectually checks the progress of this disgusting
and far-reaching disease. S. S. S. puts the blood in perfect order, and as
this pure, healthy blood goes to every nook and corner of the body Catarrh
is permanently cured. Book with information about Catarrh and medical
