MAYOR'S TUNNEL
VETO ATTACKED
Oregon & Washington Officials
Say Objections Are With- (
out Foundation.
WILL APPEAL TO COUNCIL
legislative Body Jlay Pass Fran
chise Ordinance Over Executive's
Head Today Company Anx
ious to Begin the Work.
The ordinance granting ths Oregon &
Washington Railroad Company a fran
chise for a tunnel under the Pei.in
ula will come up today .before the
Council on a motion to pass the
measure over the Mayor's veto. It is
likely that the Council will muster
enough votes to pass the ordinance, re
gardless of the Mayor's opposition.
In vetoing the ordinance. Mayor
Lane took the ground that the ordi
nance should not pass because it did
not clearly provide for the use of the
tunnel by other railroads. Officials of
the company say the Mayor is in error.
Inasmuch as they voluntarily inserted
a common-user clause for the benefit
of any raljroad that may wish to use
the tunnel, although they assert they
need not have done this, and could not
have been compelled to do so by the
city, a City Attorney McNary advised
the street committee, when the ordi
nance was under consideration.
In answer to the Mayor's contention
that the franchise does not provide
ingress to and egress from the tun
nel for other roads, officials of the
company contend that the open coun
try at each end of the proposed tun
nel is such that It admits of easy ac
cess fo the tunnel by any other rail
road that may desire, to make use of
it.
The tunnel will be 6425 feet, or over
a mile, in length, and will cut through
the Peninsula from below Willamette
Boulevard to a grade-crossing at Co
lumbia Slough Boulevard, Just east of
Maegly's Junction. The driving of this
tunnel will . cost Harriman not less
than $700,000. not including the rights
of way across the Peninsula.
If the ordinance passes, the tunnel
will provide an ideal entrance to the
city and the terminal grounds for the
projected Union Pacific extension to
Puget Sound, which is known as the
Oregon & Washington. The lino will
connect with the St. Johns extension
of the O. R. & N. just north of the
Portland Flouring Mills, where It will
run directly into the bluff under Wil
lamette Boulevard and will emerge
near the Portland & Seattle Railway
Company's bridge across the Columbia,
which the Oregon A Washington will
use in reaching the Washington side.
Anxious to Begin Work.
Instead of an open cut, such as the
Portland & Seattle Railway Is now dig
ging across the peninsula, the Oregon &
Washington proposes to go through the
nigh ground on a level grade, without
disturbing the surface. It Is desired to
have the franchise question settled as
soon as possible, so that work on the
new line to Puget Sound may go ahead.
The driving of this tunnel will require
at least a year and it is understood that
work will be commenced soon after au
thority is granted by the Council.
"The point of the Mayor's veto," said
General Manager O'Brien. "Is that the
ordinance is evasive: that no company
can get into the tunnel and take advan
tage of the common-user clause. As to
the approach through Mock's Bottom,
no one. Mayor or Councilman, has raised
a question, as every one knowa any
company can buy or condemn the neces
sary right of way.
"At the north end of the tunnel any
company promoting a legitimate enter
prise can, by a cut not to exoeed 45 feet
in depth, parallel our proposed tracks on
an easy curve and reach the tunnel with
full rights through It, as we have pro
vided, voluntarily. In our ordinance. This
will leave our switching tracks free from
interference and consequent danger of
wrecks.
"This is what we wish for the pro
tection of the public, as well as of our
selves. What we ask is, I am confident,
fair to the city, as well as to the com
pany'. "There will be a diamond-shaped
freight yard 2401) feet in length at the
north approach to the tunnel. The
yard will be a network of tracks for the
switching of cara and It will be entirely
Impracticable for it to be subjected to
the joint-user privileges with other rail
roadB. .
City's Rights Limited.
"In platting the land In University
Park the University Land Company re
served to itself the exclusive right to
grant and convey to any corporation the
right to use apy and all streets, alleys
and boulevards within the boundaries of
the land dedicated for all railroad pur
poses, and in purchasing its property
from the University Land Company, the
railroad company acquired this right
with respect to all the streets affected
by the construction of the tunnel, and It
would not be required to deal with the
city insofar as the streets affected are
concerned, but it could not dig under land
held by the city as a park without secur
ing the right from the city.
"Progress in the construction of the
plant of the Swift Packing Company be
ing to a great extent suspended until
the railroad company can complete its
line across the bottom and connect rith
the St. Johns line of the Oregon Railroad
& Navigation Company, the dirt from
the tunnel being needed to make the fill
across the bottom and the Railroad
Company being anxious to commence
construction, we submitted to the de
mands of the city authorities that the
tunnel should be subject to a joint user
provision, and an amendment was then
made incorporating such joint user pro
vision In the proposed ordinance.
Made in Good Faith.
"This concession was made in good faith
by our oempany and affords "the public
and any prospective railroad company
the rights which the Joint user clause
proposes to gi-ant.
"The Mayor by his veto in effect pro
poses that the joint user clause shall not
only extend beyond the limits of the
streets and the city property, nut on into
the switching yards of the Railroad
Company and to the property which it
purchased and hold's as private property.
"The suggestion of the Mayor that
Joint user privileges should extend to ap
proaches on the private property of the
Railroad Company is not only as we con
sider it. unreasonable In view of the con
cessions we have already made, but un
der the plain letter of the Eminent do
main Law. of this state, entirely unneces.
sary.
"Section SOTS of the code provides that:
'Any -such railway corporation may cross,
intersect. Join and unite Its railwav with
vwc other railway at any point In its
route and upon the grounds of such other
railway corporation and make necessary
turn-outs, sidings, switches and other
conveniences in furtherance of the ob
ject ot its connection."
Meets Mayor's Objection.
"This statute was called to the May
or's attention before he vetoed the ordi
nance. . It meets the objection given by
him in his veto message, and it certain
ly empowers any railroad that may de
sire to use the tunnel to connect with
any tracks laid therein.
"We recognise the fact that under the
statute, we can condemn through the
peninsula for our tunnel and not be bur
dened with any Joint user condition
whatever, but the best part of the sea
son will be over before we can get a
case in court at issue and seoure a jury
to acquire the rights we are asking in
our application to the Council."
GOOD THINGF0R LAWYERS
Mr. Ward's, Opinion on Torrens
System of Land Titles. .
PORTLAND. June 29. (To the Editor,)
I wish to say a word in regard to mat
ters in connection with the Torrens sys
tem of land titles. It appears that cer
tain ones are making great effort to edu
cate the people up In the matter of the
Torrens system. Let us see if they state
all of the facts.
Most of the real property in Multnomah
County at least Is no doubt abstracted
and abstracts now in possession of the
owners. If these abstracts show a clear
title, as no doubt most of them- do, why
In the name of common sense do they
want to file a suit to Torrenlze the title
at an expensb of from. $60 or more? If
you consult an attorney In regard to
your title, with reference to having it
Torrenlzed. this Is about what will take
place. He will tell you that first you
must have an abstract made as the first
step, unless you already have one. If you
already have one and it shows no defect
of title and he will tell you so. why
should you be put to the expense of a
suit to perfect an already perfect title?
If an attorney Induces you to Torrenlze
a title that is now perfect, he simply
promotes business In his line. If you
have an Imperfect title on your hands
and the imperfection can be corrected by
Torrenizing It. then it may be the proper
thing to do. To Torrenlze all titles with
out regard as to whether or not they are
perfect, will keep ' lawyers quite busy
for a long time to come. If you have a
defective title, It might be well to Tor
renlze it. If your title is all right, let
it alone. That the working up of the
Torrens system of land titles is a busi
ness promoter for the lawyers, there
can be no doubt in the minds of those
that understand the matter.
The statement made by The Oregonlan
In an editorial the other day that it
costs J50, or 10 per cent of the sale price
of a parcel of land each time frt is trans
ferred, is not true, unless that The Ore
gonlan figures the commission of the
agent who sells the land in the expense
of the transfer. I notice that our "lead
ing lawyers." If I may be permitted to
use that term, have little or nothing to
say through the press in regard to this
subject.
If a person has' an abstract and It
shows a clear title, let it alone and don't
Torrenize at an unnecessary expense of
from tbO to 175 or more.

Victim of the Earthquake.
SEATTLE, Wash., July 2. The crew of
the old bark Sea King, while discharging
ballast In the stream Sunday "discovered
the skeleton of a human being in a mass
of junk taken on in San- Francisco. It
Is believed that the bones were those of
a victim of the. earthquake of 1906, as
they were found among a mass of debris
from wrecked buildings, taken on to
steady the vessel.
Fireworks Destroy Building.
MINNEAPOLIS. July 8. Spontaneous
combustion in the fireworks stock is sup
posed to have been the cause of a fire
that today gutted the four-story build

TUNNEL WILL, BE OVER
SWAN tSLAN
MAP 8HOWISG ROUTE OF PROPOSED BORE THROUGH PEXIXSfXA.
The proposed tunnel through-tae Peninsula for the Oregon & Washington Railroad, the Union Paelfie ex
tension to Puget Sound, will enter the bluff under Willamette Boulevard just north of the Portland Flour
ing Mills and will be driven through the high ground of the Peninsula, emerging at toe Columbia Blough
road within a short distance of the south end of the Portland & Seattle Railway bridge across the Colum
bia. It Is proposed to use this bridge for the traffic of the new line, which will be brought into the city
through the tunnel and across the Willamette River Into the Northern Pacific Terminal yards over the Steel
bridge. The tunnel will be 6425 feet long and will cost about $125 a foot, so that the total cost of the big
bore will bo about $700,000. This cost Is exclusive of the rights of way that have been secured under private
property on the Peninsula. Not over 70 per cent of the entire distance runs under the city's property and
streets, the remainder being under private right of way already secured by the Harriman interests. As soon
as authority for the tunnel Is granted, the work of construction will be arranged for and the work will go
ahead. Rights of way all along the line between Portland and Seattle have been secured for the new road
and construction will be begun at many points as soon as the remaining details are closed up.
RAILROADS
CUTTLE CRUELLY
Long Trips Without Food or
Water on Slow Trains
Torture Stock.
COMMISSION TO- RESCUE
Pursues Investigation to Find How
Conditions Cart Be Improved.
Railways and Shippers
Shift Responsibility. .
That cattle suffer untold tortures daily
by reason of the slow cattle trains on
the Harriman lines In this state is the
testimony of cattle shippers and those
familiar with the traffic as it enters this
city. Inadequate service is not a strong
enough term, say those In. the best posi
tion to know, who characterize the re
sults of the Harriman policy as unbeara
ble. That cattle are worn and famished
by thirst from long, tedious journeys
in Blow and heavy trains Is the testimony
of all who know the conditions.
Forty hours standing in one position
in a cramped stock car, without food or
drink, straining to keep their feet while
the train is in motion and so tired that
they often fall and are trampled to death
by their companions In misery, is the
frequent experience of stock shipped
from Southern Oregon to Portland.
"Cattle and other stock sometimes
reach us 40 hours on the Journey from
the starting point and are so famished
for water that they have to be kept from
drinking as much as they want or they
would kill themselves," said a man' at
the stockyards yesterday. "Sometimes
stock fall down and are killed en route,
being worn out and having no strength
to get up again, once down. Sheep are
the worst- If after they get up once,
they fall again, they haven't much cour
age to get up. They give up easily."
Interstate Law Suggested.
t
Such inhumanity as this to dumb ani
mals may be punished by the enforce
ment of an interstate commerce law
providing that cattle and stock eh all not
be carried longer than 28 hours without
stops for rest, food and water. By a
written agreement with the shippers of
stock, the unfortunate animals may be
kept on one continuous Journey by the
railroads for 36 hours, but there is no
possible excuse for the 40-hour torture
that stock are sometimes subjected to.
Strange as it may seem, there have
been no prosecutions of the derelict rail
road companies. Trust-breaking and land
prosecutions are more spectacular. But
cattle shipped to Portland , slaughter
houses are to have a champion in the
Oregon Railroad Commission, which will
insist that the railroads provide suitable
accommodations for stock. Oswald West's
personally-conducted excursion on a cat
tle train from Oakland to Portland on
Friday, an account of which was pub
lished in yesterday's Oregonlan, shoves
the real conditions. Stockmen say this
is no Isolated case, but even much worse
suffering Is often inflicted upon stock.
"Nearly every stock shipper who comes
to the Portland stockyards has a com
plaint to make about the treatment of
his cattle by the railroads," says one
who knows. '"The delay to the stock
shipment accompanied by Mr. West is
not unusual, but is quite typical of con
ditions in stock shipments."
Horses and hogs perhaps suffer the
worst in transit. Horses are more restive
than caftle and sheep and become more
thirsty. They are stronger, however, and

LYDIA E. PINKHAM'S
VEGETABLE
COMPOUND
Is acknowledged to be the moat suc
cessful remedy in ths country for
those painful ailments peculiar to
women.
For more than 30 years it has
been curing Female Complaints,
such as Inflammation, and Ulcera
tion, Falling' and Displacements,
and consequent Spinal Weakness,
Backache, and is peculiarly adapted
to the Change of Life.
Records chow that it has on red
more cases of Female Ills than any other one remedy known
- Lydia - K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound dissolves and expels
Tumors at an early stage of development. Dragging Sensations causing
pain, weight, and headache are relieved and permanently cured by its use.
It corrects Irregularities or Painful Functions. Weakness of the
Stomach. Indigestion, Bloating, Nervous Prostration, Headache, Gene
ral Debility; also, Dizziness, Faintness Extreme Lassitude, "Don't care
andwantto be left alone" feeling. Irritability, Nervousness, Sleeplessness,
Flatulency, Melancholia or the "Blues." These are sure indications of
female weakness or some organic derangement.
For Kidney Complaints of either sex Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is a most excellent remedy. '
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to
write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. for advice. . She is the Mrs. Plnkham
who has been advising sick women free of charcre for more than twenty
years, and before that she assisted her mother-in-law Lydia E. Plnkham
in advising. Thus she is well qualified to guide sick "women back to
neaitn. ier advice is free and always helpful.

fewer are trampled to death on the jour
ney. It is pitiful to see employes at
the stockyards drive horses away from
the water tanks after a long trip for
fear they will kill themselves by drink
ing too much.
Hogs Smother In Hot Cars.
Hogs often smother on long, hot trips
from interior points to Portland. They
stand the heat less easily than other
stock. The lives of many hogs have been
saved by trainmen turning a stream of
water over the hogs from the water tanks
along the road. The spout from the tank
Is turned directly Into the stockcare and
over the hogs. Thtp cools them off and
helps them endure the trip.
Causes for the poor train service and
Insufferable delays to stock shipments
will be sought out by the Railroad Com
mission's investigation. Railroad men
say it is often the fault of the shipper
for crowding his cars. Shippers say it is
the fault of the railroad. Trainmen say
It Is the fault of the men higher up.
Officials blame the train crews. Some
railroaders say there is no help for it.
"It's the fault of the 'Chief Train
Delayer,' " say men on the trains, who
apply this term to the chief dispatcher.
This .title would appear to be not In
aptly' chosen, according to the experi
ence of Commissioner West, who says
his train stood on sidings waiting for
another to pass for two hours on a
stretch.
"The train crews are lazy," say some
officials. "They know that after a
certain number of hours spent on the
run, overtime will commence and they
dawdle around and get nothing done,
solely with an eye to this extra pay."
Commissioner West believes slow
freight movements are the result of
too few sidings and Infrequent tele
graph stations, coupled . with inade
quate equipment.
Engines Are Overloaded. .
The policy of piling on tonnage to
locomotives until they groan and stag
ger under the load Is believed to be
one of the leading causes for the ter
rible sufferings of stock In hot weath
er on slow freight trains. Tonnage
per train mile is the prime desideratum
of the Harriman ofncial. It is said
to be one of the triumphs of the Har
riman regime, which borrowed the no
tion from James J. Hill. The microbe
took permanent lodgment in E. H.
Harriman'i brain and It is a mania

maintenance and operation of the sys
tem. It is of course the cardinal prin
ciple with the Oregon management.
Thes uperlntendent whose reports
show the maximum of tonnage moved
with the minimum number of trains is
supposed to be the .best railroader.
Harriman, who goes In for main,
straight lines, with few feeders, and
who enlarged the pipes at water tanks
so his engines could drink with a few
minutes' less delay o they could be
out and at work again, Is essentially
a practical man. If one horse can
strain and pull the load that requires
two horses to deliver In a shorter
time, the Harriman policy Is to. sacri
fice time to economy of coal, men and
engines. Anyway there are no surplus
engines on the Oregon lines.
"Such delays as Commissioner West
indicates are likely to happen on any
railroad," said Charles Malboeuf, dis
trict freight agent for the Southern
Pacific. "Mr. West speaks of thresh
ing machinery on this train that was
dead freight and could have been cut
out to expedite the delivery of the
stock. Threshing machinery li now
on ths basis of perishable freight for
it is urgently needed In the Interior
to save the crop. It is not the fault
of the Southern Pacific that It was
dellevered to it at the eleventh hour.
Special Stock. Trains.
"When there is enough livestock to be
shipped to justify it. a special stock train
Is run. On the whole, stock Is attached
to through freight trains," which usually
run on schedules. I do not think the
livestock conditions on the Southern Pa
cific differ from those onother railroads."
However, tt Is admitted that although
the O. R. & N. has more traffic to handle,
livestock moves quicker on this road than
on the Southern Poclflc. This is said to be
due to the fact that the road penetrates
a livestock country and is equipped to
handle this traffic to better advantage.
On the Southern Pacific trains have to
be cut In two at hills and taken up in
sections in some cases, while train engines
are, used to do switching at Btattons. All
these things contribute to tedious, weary
delays that add greatly to the suffering
of stock shipped at this ' season. The
Railroad Commission believes most of
this unnecessary torture of animals can
be removed and will insist that the rail
roads show more mercy to theier dumb
passengers.
A SCIENTIFIC FIELD MEET
Dr. Barton Draws a Lesson From
Oregon's Commencement Week.
PORTLAND, June 29.-(To the Editor.)
The first annual field meet of the Oregon
Academy of Sciences was held at the
University of Oregon, Bugene, last Tues
day. The local members presented papers
and lectures of a high, order of scientific
worth, and especially may be mentioned
the paper of Professor J. F. Bovard on
"Protozoa." This paper adds to our pre
vious stock of knowledge concerning this
form of animal life. The lecture on recent
chemical research was of immense Inter
est to every student of physics, dealing
as tt did on the recent speculations of
ions and mikrons In relation to atoms and
molecules.'
The visiting members of the academy
were well entertained by the local mem
bers and the faculty of the university.
Wbat spot in the state ts capable of
greater possibilities than Hendricks'
Park, a wooded hill near town recently
presented to the city?
It was commencement week and the
town was filled with friends and relatives
of the graduating class. The whole com
munity was In holiday attire, mentally
and materially. What a feeling this is.
and how it differs from every other event!
A fueling of bonhomie, intellectual, es
thetic and withal, hopeful. Perhaps it is
only a species of atavism that passes our
feelings on "commencement" week. How
the trifles are taken seriously and how
the serious Is lost sight of for a day. And
yet it is good to feel this old feeling. Just
like that of the '70s and '80s. The atmos
phere is the same, and so are the flowers
and athletic youngsters and white-gowned
girls, and the laughter and all kinds of
arrangements.
I bad not visited our state high school
before and now confess that It Is more
of an institution than I had been led to
believe. While no place could be better
In Itself, yet how fortunate it were a
hundred miles nearer the metropolis. Why
were the two state schools divided? Why
should we duplicate whole classes ot
branches?
Next year the Oregon Academy of Sci
ences will likely meet at Corvallis, with
Its equally Important institution, with its
own atmosphere. Intellectual, practical,
scientific: attended by bright youths Just
like Eugene. And yet are two things In
the universe alike?
A final question: To what extent do the
good people of Oregpn's metropolis Iden
tify themselves with the Interest of their
very own university? Will they In time
make it Heidelberg or Harvard?
