MKT P&SS LI TO
END CAR SHORTAGE
Willamette Valley Shippers
Consider Going Before
Legislature.
ROADS MAKE OLD EXCUSE
kay Tlioy Arc Not Equipped to
Handle XJnexpcclcd Traffic.
Cure Proposed Is Demur
rage Penalty.
That the car shortage is worse, In
stead of better; that 'Willamette Valley
mills, as well as others, are discrim
inated against in order that certain
mills may got much more than their
ijiroportion of cars, and thut rank fa
voritism Is shown some specific mills,
3s charged by sawmill operators, who
'aiot only are becoming thoroughly dis
couraged over the outlook, but are in
clined to organize for the purpose of
Hccuring legislation to protect .their in
xerests from utter annihilation.
A law similar to the Texas law Is
lfavored, whereby the railroads are
lorced by statute to deliver cars as re
quired, or pay demurrage for every
'day after a certain date.
"That the present system Is an out
rage is conceded by every thinking
man," said a prominent Oregon lumber
manufacturer yesterday. "What would
be '.bought of a private individual who
liud so little regard for his customers
that because li is business had Increased
lie would refuse to provide for those
dependent upon him for supplies and
Fay he was not expecting such an in
crease and couldn't till orders?
"if your paper wire to notify the
Northwest that because it was getting
more subscriptions than it expected It
could not supply the demand, or if the
farmer, because he should get 60 bush
els of wheat an acre instead of 20,
would lose the difference, what would
you think of such business methods?
The idea is preposterous and so is the
plea of the railroads that the cars are
' needed all at once.
Car Shortage No New Tiling.
"This car shortage is not a new thing.
Kvcry year the same chaotic state of af
fairs takes place. Kvery year the rail
roads, quasi-public institutions, lie down
on the communities they are supposed to
serve and make the same old plea that
they are doing everything in their power,
etc., and that it Is the shippers' fault be
cause they all want to ship at once, as if
God Almighty didn't make the harvest
time and the railroads didn't know the
time. They speak of the equipment lying
wailing for the harvest. Why not? Is
not the farmer's harvesting machinery
used only during the harvest and his
plows and kindred tools for a brief period
in the Spring.
"Would not the farmer be considered
somewhat improvident who would not
provide for his requirements? Further
than keeping his machinery in order, he
rushes his plowing and sowing so as to
take advantage of the weather, and in the
Harvesting season his Is a strenuous time
trying to save his crop from the elements.
Suppose he succeeds, ana is also success
ful in hauling his crop to the railroad be
fore the rains set in and the roads be
come impassable, wnat then? Why, the
grain tills the warehouses to overflowing
and the wheat stands outside waiting for
cars, and they don't come except where
the roads compete, where the Hill roads
and the Harrinian roads come together.
There they furnish cars first. Next where
there is water competition. Then the big
shippers, who have a pull, get cars, but
the poor farmer's crop lies out subject to
the elements and his is the loss.
Farmers Bear Brunt of Loss.
"Tills Is the situation for the farmer.
After a season of stress everywhere, he
hauls hia crop to the railroads and there
It lies unsold; for who will buy what Is
apt to be spoiled by rain any time, and
spoiled It is this year in hundreds of
thousands of bushels, and whose Is the
responsibility? The railroads say they
simply can't help it; that they can't get
equipment; yet the American Car & Foun
dry Company has lately made deliveries
of cars in 90 days from date of order.
"Tho railroads encourage industries to
come in, then shut thera down for lack
of cars or motive power, simply because
they, after years of the same experience,
do not make provision against it. The
local heads are not to blame particularly,
for their recommendations are ignored.
In the case of the Harrinian system
everything favors San Francisco, even
the steamer line operated since the be
ginning by the O. R. & N. is turned
over bag and baggage to San Fran
cisco. The Northwest knows the
result, the Immediato change to
wretched service and a scries of acci
dents that would almost till a volume.
Kruttschnitt and Stubbs, both San
Francisco men, Harrlm.in's chief officials,
are for the South.
"it is time the manufacturers and
the farmers got together on this rail
road proposition. They have already
lost money enough this year so that
they could better afford to buy 6000
cars, if it were the only thing possible,
as they would cost only about JS00
each, say altogether St, 000,000. That
this community has suffered double
that amount this year no thinking man
will deny. AH the sawmills in the Valley
l.ave been cither shut down entirely
or are running only one shift instead
of two. With a great demand for lum
ber and plenty of raw material, this
loss is final aDd can never be made up.
Hoails Take Advantage of Situation.
"How much has labor lost? The
farmer either loses his wheat by stress
of weather or fails to market his other
crops; therefore he cannot take ad
vantage of prices and cannot get his
money, so all progress stops.
"How long is this going to last and
what will -he the ultimate result?
"In addition to all the foregoing, the
railroads take advantage of the situa
tion to buy cheaply what they want
themselves. They say to the millmen:
'We can give you cars for lumber for
our own use, hut not at the market
price.' Consequently, not being able to
get cars and disliking to discharge
their forces entirely, tho mills must ac
cept prices below the list and pay the
hlxh market price for logs or shut down
and wait for, nobody knows how long.
"But there are some mills that seem
to be able to get cars when all others
fall. A new mill on the O. R. & N.
shipped 3,000.000 feet last month, nearly
its entire capacity, and has no weary
waits for cars. What can the reason be?
"It certainly is time that railroad of
ficials recognize the situation and ren
der an account to the community which
they serve, or they must of a certainty
expect tho people to protect themselves
by legislation."
Here on Pleasure Trip.
T. A. Lawson, assistant general super
intendent of the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway, Is In Portland for a short time
on a pleasure trip. He stated- that his
trip to the Coast has no significance
whatever and that it has nothing to do
with the reports of a Coast extension. He
says he is here to look over the Coast for
his own satisfaction.
NEW SCHEDULE OX S. P.
Trains to Rim on East Side and Vse
C. & E. Tracks.
Because of the destruction of the Jef
ferson bridge over the Santiam on the
main line of the Southern Pacific, a new
schedule has been put in effect by the
management of the road .which will
eliminate the routing of trains by the
West Side division as far as Corvallis.
Hereafter all Southern Pacific trainB on
he main line will go out of Portland on
the East Side and will be transferred at
Woodburn to the Springfield branch to
Shelburn Junction, where they will run
over the Corvallis & Eastern tracks to
Albany, and there take the main line
for points south. Between Woodburn and
Jefferson a stub train has been put on to
accomodate travel in that territory.
EAST SIDE MEN OBJECT
Do Not Approve Major's Plan to
Banish Paving Companies.
Property owners on Grand avenue, who
expect to lay hard pavement between
Hawthorne to Hollactiy avenues next
year, do not approve Mayor Lane's plan
to shut- out the two companies that are
now laying such pavements in Portland.
On Hawthorne avenue the property owners
decided several months ago to put down
"bituminous" pavement, allowing open
competition. It is proposed on that part
of Grand avenue, between Belmont street
and Hawthorne avenue, to waive the fact
that the plank there would lapt a year or
two more and put down a hard pavement.
Work will be started on the fouwl.ttion
of the Steel bridge across Sullivan's
Gulch at once, so it can be completed by
August of next year, and the property
owners want to lay hard pavement
through to Holladay avenue. E. H.
Virgil, owning property on the street,
said:
"We would have bitulithic down to the
Sullivan Gulch now had the work not
been held back by Councilmcn Sharkey
and Kellaher. We asked for this pave
ment and were ready to pay for It. but
were told we would have to take a pave
ment we did not want, or get nothing,
and we got nothing. For the life of me
1 cannot see what the Mayor or Council
has to do with the matter if the prop
erty owners ask to have the street paved
with gold pieces. It in our money
and not theirs which pays for the work.
Yet an attempt was made to cram down
our throats an improvement we did not
ask for and did not want, with the result
that we got nothing. When the prop
erty owners ask for a certain material on
a street the Council has no authority to
force us to take something else as it
did in the ca.se of Grand avenue north
from tho fill to Sullivan's Gulch."
From present indications, the 'paving
contracts for Grand avenue between
Hawthorne and Holladay avenues, and
for Hawthorne avenue, between Bust
Third and East Fortieth streets, will be
divided up between the two competing
hard pavement companies. Union avenue
will be paved to Sullivan Gulch bridge
and perhaps further.
MAYOR JOHNS IN PORTLAND
Baker City Executive Re-elected
Monday for Third Time.
C. A. Johns of Baker City, who lant
Monday was elected- to the mayoralty of
his city for the fourth term, was in Port
land yesterday. Mr. Johns thinks that
Baker City is about the only place on
the map of the whole United States and
nothing gives him quite so much plea
sure as to talk of its prosperity and of
the nice people who live there.
"Baker City is more prosperous today
than it has ever before been in its his
tory," declared Mr. Johns yesterday
afternoon. "More money Is deposited in
the banks than ever before and that is a
sure indication of healthy business. The
town is growing so rapidly that it seems
as though new buildings spring up in a
night. We must have about 8000 persons
in Baker City at present.
"The mining districts tributary to
Baker City are doing well. The old Red
Boy property, one of the greatest of
gold-producing mines in Oregon, will
shortly be opened up. The company
which Is developing the property has
about completed the installation of $200,000
plant which will soon be in operation.
"The mine was closed down three years
ago. The lead of the ore body was lost
and the property has been tied up In liti
gation. Eastern capitalists now have it
and are ready and are spending a vast
amount of money in an attempt to re
locate the lost lead. If- they find it they
will undoubtedly do well."

ORGANIZE NEIV CLUB
Business Men Unite on the
East Side.
STRONG MEMBERSHIP ROLL
Officers Are Elected, Apartments
Will Be Leased, and the Organi
zation Will Work in Harmony
With Other Local Bodies.
The East Side Club of Portland was or
ganized last nigfit in the office, of the
Brown, Hawthorne and Grand avenues,
by an enthusiastic body of property-owners
and business men, for the social and
material advancement of that part of the
city. W. L. Boise, who conceived the idea
of the club, called the meeting to order,
and In a few words outlined the project.
He said it was not hu.er.ded to start an
organization in opposition to local com
mercial bodies, as some had supposed, but
quite the opposite.
"I feel highly gratified at the clase of
men who are here this evening," remarked
Mr. Boise, "and I am euro they would
honor any organization. Our object Is
to form a club and to secure apartments
where we can get together. We have al
ready secured the services of Nicholas
Sargent, who has leased the Brown, and
who will be the caterer of this club. Our
apartments will be on the top floor of
tlie Brown, where there will be rooms
for billiards, reading and smoking, and
where the businet5 men can meet each
other. No one has refused to sign the
membership roll. We have more than
loo and will certainly have U00 in a short
time."
Following the explanatory remarks, Mr.
Boise was elected president of the club;
Edward Newbcgin, vice-president; W. S.
Halvor, secretary, and H. H. Nev.-hall,
treasurer; directors, J. M. Healy. Robert
D. Inman, Jpisse Stearns. George W. Hol
comb and Walter F. Burrell.
Following the election of officers and
directors, it was decided to call the or
ganization the East Side Club of Port
land. The word "commercial" was omit
ted so as not to conflict with the Port
land Commercial Club and to remove any
appearance of opposition to that central
organization. The officers and directors
were authorized to prepare articles of
incorporation and file them at once. There
will be another meeting next Monday eve
ning, when a lease will be signed for the
apartments, which will be well furnished.
Admission is $25 and dues $2 per month.

recently by J. H. King, who has confessed
to the burglary.
In Burglar King's confession, he stated
that he sold fragments of jewelry to Gar
flnkle, and Captain Bruin immediately
took steps to ascertain the truth of the
statement. The goods were found in the
store conducted by Garflnkle, but they
were not listed on the books, as required
by a city ordinance, and Captain Bruin
will apply to District Attorney Manning
today for a complaint, charging Garflnkle
with the felony offense of receiving stolen
goods.

Members of the executive committee
and board of governors of the Commercial
Club last night by a unanimous vote de
cided to raise immediately $23,000 of the
fund of $100,000 that Us to be expended
under the auspices of the Pacific North

also determined to hold a flower carnival
and a livestock show in Portland next
year, the former to occur in the Spring
and the latter in the Fall.
At the recent convention of the Pacific
Northwest Development League, held in
Spokane, the plan to raise $l'M.0i for pub-

licity work was adopted.' The delegation
from Portland pledged Itself to raise $25,
000 if Seattle would raise a similar
amount, Tacoma and Spokane $12,500 each,
the remainder to be subscribed by the
smaller cities and communities. So last
night it was voted to make good this
promise.
If the other cities follow out their
promise and make the subscriptions al
lotted them, the $100,000 will be expended

The meeting last night was the first
family gathering of the executive com
mittee and the board of governors. An
Informal dinner was held in the dining
room of the club, and Theodore B. Wil
cox, chairman of the executive committee,
and F. W. Leadbetter, president of the
Commercial Club, sat at the head of the
table.
Plana for the holding of a floral carni
val and a livestock show were widely dis
cussed, but nothing definite was decided
in regard to details. Large committees
will be appointed to canvass the situa-
j ticn and arrange for the financial back
ing. The floral carnival will probably be
held in June, when Portland's beautiful
crop of roses will be at its best. It will
continue a week or more and there will
be flower parades, flower festivals and
many caniva! features. ,
It was generally agreed among those
present last night that the livestock show
was the most important feature of the
Lewis and Clark Exposition. At the ex
hibition to be given in the Fall an effort
will be made to interest all the livestock
enthusiasts in the Northwest, and it is
believed that it can be made an event
that not only will be a credit but a de
cided benefit to Portland and the entire
Northwest.

that the officers were looking for tile girl
he notified her and she was arrested by
Captain Bruin as she was getting on a
