Being Assembled . and Mater , inls Distributed on Front Street by Engineer AVk'krrsham. i Preparations are going forward for commencing work on tlie United Rail ways Front street line. Actual construc tion will be commenced early next week. Crews are being assembled and Chief Engineer Whkersham is distributing ma terials along Front street for the crews of workmen to commence work with. It had been expected to start opera tions this week, but the delay to 20 cars of steel which are now on their way West from the Eastern factories 1 caused the further postponement. Washouts and landslides on the transcontinental roads brought about the delay . in the arrival of materials. As it is desired to finish track building and re-lay the street block by block and thus keep the thor oughfares in a passable condition so far as possible.' it was. thought beat to await the arrival of the . material so that the track my be completed and the street restored to Its normal condition. C B. Loss, head of the I'nlted Rail ways project, is expected in Portland to day, and he will probably remain and flirect the commencement of the work. The construction will be in charge of En gineer Wickersham. JUMP TRACK ON TRESTLE Passenger and Coal Car Kail One Dead, Seven Injured. DUBUQUE, Iowa. Feb. 22.

FRANCHISE WAS MISTAKE Only Those Negroes Properly Quali fied Should Have Kight to Vote. BALTIMORE, Feb. 22. The principal address at the exercises today commem orative of the opening of the Johns Hop kins University, was delivered by Hannls Taylor, formerly Minister to Spain. Mr. Taylor Is professor of international and constitutional law at Columbia Univer sity. His subject was, "The Relation of the South to Pending Problems."" He regarded the 13th amendment to the Constitution as a Declaration of Inde pendence because it set the South free from a dying institution. The first great mistake, he declared, was in the en franchisement of those entirely unpre pared for citizenship. The basic principle upon which the new Southern Constitu tion rests Is, he said, that as fast as their colored citizens become qualified by education or property, or both, for the franchise, they shall be endowed with it. Intelligent and responsible minorities of colored voters thus introduced into Southern electorates could never menace the political supremacy of a race en dowed with genius for domination. Along with a just and gradual bestowal of the franchise should go an earnest effort to advance the negro race through public education. Mllwaukie Country Club. Eastern and California races.

"FIGHTING THE BEEF TRUST 39 Many persons keep Carter"s Little Liver Pills on hand to prevent bilious attacks, sick - headache, dizziness, and find them lust a hat they need. TO THE PUBLIC As long as Smith has life, health and ability, he will continue fighting the Beef Trust. SMITH WILL STAY NO TRUST CAN DRIVE HIM OUT. Eastern people are paying famine prices for meat. Portland people are eating Smith's meats the tip top pick of Oregon's ranges, the cheapest meat ever served to the public in the history of Portland. Smith is able to give the public these delicious, healthy, pure, clean meats at extraordinarily low prices, because he is doing the volume of business, because the grand majority of Portland people eat Smith's meats. TO THE BEEF TRUST Gentlemen, we have started to fight you, and we are going to lick you. We won't quit until you are lying in the ash-heap, you, the half-a-billion-dollar organization of Chicago, that seeks to monopolize the meat trade upon earth. We believe your days are numbered ; we believe the next two years will see the disruption of you and every other trust that seeks to throttle the American people. You have done your worst by Smith, but you haven't hurt him. You have organized boycotts, you have started markets and hired "straw men" to run them. You have hired false witnesses in short, you have almost reached the limit. The one thing left for you now is to TRY to BUY THE PRESS; but here again you will be foiled. YOU WILL FIND THE PRESS OF PORTLAND, OREGON, AS CLEAN AND HONEST AS THAT OF MANY OTHER TOWNS WHERE YOU HAVE TRIED TO BRIBE. Let us refresh your memory with a few quota tions from Charles Edward Russell, in Everybody's Magazine: The trust sent out representatives to go quickly from town to town in the West placing advertisements in the local newspapers. It i a gratifying comment on the integrity of our press that the number of newspapers that were bribed In this way was comparatively small, but the number upon which the bribing was in one way or another at tempted, must have been very large.'.' , FAINCY DRESSED CHICKENS, 18 CENTS Beef Liver Choice Brisket Beef..
