PORTLAND IS ILL
KNOWN IN EUROPE
Portland today because of the lack of
such a hotel. The Waldorf-Astoria would
pay better in Portland right today than it
does even in New York City. '
"It is conceded that the finest hotel lo
cations in Europe are along the Swiss
lakesr- There land sells for 100 francs
(that is, $5) a square foot, or at the rate
of JoO.COO per lot -of 25 by 100 feet. Yet I
tell you that in all Switzerland there Is
not a finer location for a hotel than light
back here on our Portland Heights. Now
add to this the Columbia River scenery
within an hour's ride and the seashore
only two hours away when the railroad is
built to It, and where In Europe have you
anything to equal it?
"From" what I have seen and heard over
Europe and America, east of here, during
the past year, of constant traveling, I
expect to see at least 1,000,000 people in
Portland within the next 20 years. What
Portland needs above all else right today
is new blood. And the new blood is al
ready coming. Outside money and people
that, have made other cities are going to

TAKE UMBRAGE AT STRAUS
Paget Sound Tugboat Owners Feel
t They Have a Grievance.
TACOMA, Wash., July 19. (Special.)
Incensed at a remark alleged to have
been made by Secretary Straus of the
Bureau of Commerce and Labor, tug
boat owners on Puget Sound have called
a special meeting of their association to
take up certain matters with the author
ities at Washington.
Tugboat owners say they are required
to do things wholly unnecessary In the
way of manning and equipping their
vessels. Yesterday a deputation was sent
to wait upon Secretary Straus and dis
cuss the matter with him. Secretary
Straus was under the impression that

FIRST JEWISH

SUNSET
MAGAZINE
Became Diplomat After Achieving
Success In Business and liaw
and Is Now Secretary ot
Commerce and Labor.
Oscar Solomon Straus is vthe first
Hebrew to enter the Cabinet of a Presi
dent of the United States. .This- small,
pale, quiet scholar and diplomat of Israel
has risen by sheer power of brain and
heart to the highest place ever held by
one of his race and religion in America.
With Benjamin Disraeli, once Prime Min
ister of England, and the head of the
House of Rothschild; the man who Is
Portland's guest today shares the honor
of having reached the three highest po
sitions held by men of their blood in
modern history. '
Mr. Straus is Secretary of Commerce
and Labor of the United States, the
greatest commercial and Industrial Na
tion ever known to history. On his hon
esty and Judgment and tact largely rests
the success or failure of the largest cor
porations of America; the bread and
meat, the very life happiness, of nearly
every laboring man In this country. His
power for good or evil over great cor
porations, such as the railroads or others
directly or Indirectly concerned in inter
state r international commerce". Is sec
ond only to that of the Secretary of the
United States Treasury, and his influence
on the dally bread of those who work
with their hands Is second to none save
that of the President himself.
Such is the power and position in Amer
ica of a man who would perhaps long ago
have died under the lash In darkest Rus
sia had his life been shaped, differently.
First Recognized by Cleveland.
Nor is President Roosevelt the only
head of the Nation to honor this man.
President Cleveland in 1884 appointed him
Minister to Turkey. At a passing glance
this may mean little, but It was at the
request of auch Christian influences as
that of Henry "Ward Beecher and of
Christian sects who had nsslons In that
land whose doors were nailed shut and
whose missionaries were in prison. Jew
fought with wits against Mohammedan
for Christians, and he won, where for
years all the diplomats of Europe had
failed. Turning, still tireless for others,
be they of what race or religion they
would, this same small, quiet man,
backed with American battleships swing
ing uneasily in the distance, Journeyed
to Jerusalem. In the city that gave
Christianity its religion, this Jew found
400 men of his race In dungeons, and he
set them free. Only a few of them were
American, all the nationalities of Europe
were among them, yet this lover , of. all
mankind secured their freedom.
Showered with the thanks from both
church and state from both sides of
the Atlantic this same Quiet man re-
turned to New York City, there' to re
build his broken health, and to write
such books as "The Origin of the Re
publican Form of Government in the
United States," "Life of Roger Wil
liams," "The Development of Religious
Liberty In the United States," "United
States Doctrine of Citizenship and Ex
patriation," and "Reform in the Con
sular Service."
Called on by McKinley.
Another President called Mr. Straus
to his assistance when this country
was on the verge of war with Spain
over Cuba. Mr. Straus had already
outlined to President McKinley a
peaceful method for the government of
Cuba by the United States similar to
that of England's over Egypt, when
the Maine disaster brought on the war.
But the United States was then very
near war with Turkey over outrages
to Americans during . the Armenian
troubles. Because Mr. Straus had
forced from the Sultan certain definite
results that no other diplomat of the
world could, President McKinley sent
him- back to Constantinople, and once
more Mr. Straus won a diplomatic .vic
tory, resulting in the satisfactory "set
tling of all American claims without
firing a shot, where all other ministers
had failed. h
All of Mr. Straus' work for America
has not been on foreign Chores. Ha
has been a member from the United
6tates to the permanent Court of arbi
tration at The Hague, taking the place
there of ex-President Harrison when
the latter died; president of the New
York Board of Trade, president of the
National Primary League, president of
tne American social Science Associa
tion, vice-president of the National
Civic League, vice-president of the In
ternational Law Association of America
and the moving spirit of the Hepburn
commission as representative of the
New York Chamber of Commerce.
In 1879 the Hepburn Commission investi
gated the railroad abuses that had. grown
up through the manipulations of such men
as Jay Gould and the Vanderbllts with
the result of -the forming of the New
York State Railroad Commission, which
has been copied by most of the states of
the Union, and which also resulted in the
formation by the Federal Government of
the Interstate Commerce Commission. So
In a way Mr. Straus has today become
the head of what be, perhaps more than
any other one man, helped to create.
Various universities have honored him.
He holds the degree of L.L.D. from the
Universities of Pennsylvania, Washington
and Lee, and Columbia University of New
York City. Brown University conferred
on him the degree of L.H.D.
Was Born In Bavaria.
Mr. Ptraus was born December S, 1S50,
. In Otterburh in Rhenish Bavaria,
. Germany. He was brought to this
country when 8 years old and lived
till 1865 in Halbotton, a little village near
Columbia, Ga., where his father kept the
country store. The Civil War forced the
family North, where they arrived in New
York City penniless. He entered Colum
Dla Grammer school, then Columbia Uni
versity, where he was graduate from the
law school In 1871 with such men as Stuy
vesant Fish. Brander " Matthews and R.
Fulton Cutting. He entered the law firm
of Hudson & Straus, later Sterne, Straus
& Thompson, but later,' because of poor
health, gave up the law and entered the
Importing business with his brothers
Isldor and Nathan.
Although successful both as a lawyer
and a business man, Mr. Straus long ago
abandoned both, at heavy financial losses
to himself, to serve his Nation, first as
a diplomat abroad where others failed,
later In the Cabinet chair of Secretary of
Commerce and Labor in the National
. Capitol, to which he was appointed by
President Roosevelt December 17, 1906.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ISSUES
PAMPHLET.
Contains Many Facta 'of Interest to
Intending Settlers and Is
Profusely Illustrated.
"Oregon, the Land of Opportunity," an
attractive booklet of 64 pages, has Just
been issued by the Portland Chamber of
Commerce. The opening pages are de
voted to a general comparison of Oregon
with various other states. Under the bead
ing. "Commercial Fruits," some Interest
ing facts, not generally known, are given
regarding the various kinds of fruits
raised In this stale, together with esti
mates of yield and prices paid compiled
from authentic data.
The booklet also ' contains considerable
information regarding farming In the
state. The various grains and garden pro
ducts are treated of at length and the
sections favorable to their culture given.
Stockralslng and dairying, as they de
serve, .are given an important place in the
book. Oregon wool Is known everywhere
to be of superior quality and it is inter
esting to note that this state produces
more wool per sheep than any other sec
tion of the Union.
Under the heading "Varied Industries,"
facts regarding the lumbering industry
of this state will be found as interesting
to the Oregonlan as to the outsider. The
state has today more than 300.000.000.iOOO
feet ot merchantable timber, conserva
tively valued at about J4.000.000.000. The
mills of Portland turn out 2,000,000 feet of
lumber per day. The hemlock of Oregon
is radically different and superior to any
other known hemlock. This timber Is
shipped to all parts of the country and to
China, Australia, the Philippines, Eng
land and South Africa.
Several pages of the booklet are devoted
to a description of Portland and Its re
sources and activities, which will be of
especial Interest to the homeseeker.
A table of wages, compiled from the re
port of the State Labor Commission, gives
the wages paid to workers In the various
trades. Two pages are also devoted to
tables of the public and school lands of
the state and Government lands available
for purchase and homesteadlng under the
United States land laws.
A list of the commercial bodies of the
state are also given. '
The folded map of the state, which is
attached to the back cover, is of sufficient
size to show the smallest communities,
and is of especial value for the reason
that on the reverse side haa been printed
an exhaustive list of facts regarding the
state lands. This information will do
away with the large amount of letter
writing which the Chamber of Commerce
has found necessary in answering the
countless questions relating to the. state
lands.
The cover of the booklet is an attract
ive design In three colors In poster style
of a .group of forest trees. The book Is
profusely Illustrated In effective half
tones of natural scenery, views of or
chards, wheat fields, forests, stock farms,
lumber mills, fish canneries and Irrigation
systems, together with cuts of Portland
public and commercial buildings and pri
vate dwellings. '
The presswork, typography and index
are excellent and the book is an example
of the best workmanship in printing and
book making. It Is the result of the com
bined efforts of the officials of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce, . who have,
exercised the utmost care in Its compll-
HIBERNIAN PICNIC SUNDAY
Children of Emerald Isle - Will
Gather at Cedar Park.
With the National colors and a liberal
display of "the green," Cedar Park is
being attractively decorated for the an
nual picnic of. the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians, which will be held on those
grounds tomorrow. The order found it
impossible to procure a suitable steamer
for the usual river excursion and decided
on a family picnic Instead. The Ladies'
Auxiliary is co-operating with the mem
bers of the society to make the affair
a grand success and this result seems as
sured, since the streetcar -company has
promised the management a special serv
ice throughout the day.
At the grounds the Ladles' Auxiliary
will have charge of the refreshments and
the men will conduct the athletic events,
which will consist of an Interesting pro
gramme, including a tug-of-war contest
between the East Side and the West
Side. Valuable prizes for all of the events
have been subscribed by the business men
of the city.
Pioneer Architect Content to Pass
Rest of His Life Here Gives
Opinions on Keeds of
the "Rose City.
"In -Europe Portland Is the Best
known city of the Pacific Coast, San
Francisco alone excepted," said . H.
J. Hafty yesterday. Mr. Hafty, though
a native of Switzerland, has lived in
Portland for the past i'S years and is
known as one of the leading architects
of the city. The past year he haa been
touring Europe, but has "come back
from half way round the world to
spend the rest of my days In the finest
city in America," as he said yesterday.
"Wherever I went In Europe, the year
I have been gone, I of course, regis
tered from "Portland, Oregon, U. S. A.,'
andseverybody knew where I was from.
Seattle is unknown across the water;
even the name has never been heard
over there where Portland is well
known. The Lewis and Clark Exposi
tion is the reason; that fair did this
city more good out over the world than
the people here realize. But odd aa it
may seem, the ' reverse is true as be
tween Portland and Seattle in the east
ern part of tins country.
"But one tiling is sure, this whole
section of the Pacific Northwest is the
place that people, both in Eastern
United States and all over Europe, are
looking to as the most promising spot
on earth. Instead of trying to push
this section they kept me busy ans
wering questrons about It. 'How much
does it cost to get there?" 'What does
it coBt to live there?" Bow much Is
house rentr And so it went every day
for almost the entire trip. ,
Left Here a Tear Ago.
"I left here a year ago over the
Canadian Pacific and first went to
Paris. Then Switzerland, Italy, Aus
tria and Germany; then back to New
York City, then Washingtoh, Denver,
Salt Lake and home to Portland. And
nowhere did I pass through as good a
city as Portland.. Let me compare it
in piecemeal, first with Europe, then
with other American cities:
"In European cities the buildings are
without elevators, except the first-class
hotels. Office, studio and apartment
houses, five, six and even eight stories
high, have nothing but stairs. Now
these are not old buildings with which
Europe is, of course, choked, but the
new ones that have just gone up, most
of them having been built, by the way,
with millions on millions of American
dollars left there by American tourists.
The building laws are not as strict as
they are here, and more wood is used
than even here In the Pacific North
west. The brick and stone work is not
as good, and here is something that
will surprise you, the taste,. the archi
tecture is not as good.
"Take in Italy, for Instance, the cen-tiiry-on-century
old home of art; the
modern Italian haa not the architect
ural taste tabt has the American, as Is
proven by the results In the buildings
themselves. The old Italian art is dead.
In such things as steam heating, fire
escapes, and all that goes to make a
building convenient to live in, Europe
as a whole is fully a quarter of a cen
tury behind America, ' and especially
behind Portland, which in this respect
is exceeded in America only by New
York Clty
Gotham's Fine Buildings.

"The scenerv of Switzerland ,

Denver & Rio Grande, the Santa Fe

rado, and last, but not least, that seen
right along this Columbia River, Is. not
only as good as anything In all Europe,
but better. The famous Rhine is a
ditch compared to the Hudson and the
Columbia from Portland to The Dalles
exceeds the Hudson. It is the finest
river scenery In the world.

skies, Italian climate, are proverbs in
""r"ur" a"u nistory ror hundreds of
years. But I tell, you that Italy has not
as good a climate as Portland. This Is
not boasting or 'boosting,' It is a cold
fact. I have even heard Italians admit it,
with poor relish it Is true, but they had
to, those who had been here In Portland
for any length of time, especially In Sum
mer, and who had gone back to the old
country. Winter In Italy is delightful of
course, but no better than here; but the
Summers are hot,' depressing and un
healthy. Oregon Climate Ideal.
"Summers in Switzerland are like Sum
mers in Portland, but In Winter there
they have from six to eight feet of snow
for six months of the year, and here' we
have roses all Winter. Portland climate
is simply this: 'Italian Winters and Swiss
Summers."
"As for business conditional, I found that
things are in excellent shape all over
both Europe and America. Everybody Is
busy and everybody has money on both
sides of the water. But there Is a pres
sure all over Europe and in the East In
America to 'go West.'
"The Pacific Coast Is again attracting
the eyes of the world, as it did during
the gold excitement in 1849. All Europe
and America is talking about the chances
to get rich out here. And people will be
coming here by tens of thousands for
years to come. '
"What Portland needs above all things
now Is hotels ; next, large apartment
houses. I understand that the Portland
hotels today are crowded to their limit,
and more people are coming than ever
before. Portland has passed the asre and
position of a village, or even one of the
mailer quiet cities; she has arrived at
the point where she must take a new and
bigger view of things. A first-class hotel,
equal to anything In America, except the
St. Regis, of New York, Is needed at once.
A hotel, for example, -where rooms rent
for from S5 to $20 per day, with suites at
J100 per day.

people who remain asleep will suddenly
wake up. like old Rip Van Winkle, to
find themselves strangers in their old
home, with the chances of a lifetime gone
forever. Nothing can hold Portland
back."
HOE FROM MOUNT HOOD
TOM RICHARDSON TELLS OF
VISIT TO CLOUD CAP INN.
Hardships of Journey Thing of Past
Since Establishment of Auto
mobile Lino.
Tom Richardson, manager of the PorV
land Commercial Club, returned to Port
land Thursday night after an enjoyable
outing at Cloud Cap Inn, Mr. Richard
son says this resort is found to grow in
favor, as most of the difficulties that
have heretofore hindered Its deelopment
have been removed. The trip can be easily
and comfortably made, and the hard
ships of the old route are a thing of the
past.
The guides report that there is more
snow on the summit of Mount Hood at
the present time than there has been at
the beginning of any season in the past
five years. One guide said that the
ropes and outfit he used last Summer
are under fifteen feet of snow, and ha
does'-not think they can, be got at thia
season.
All the parties, - with one exception,
who have climbed the mountain have
reached the summit. The party in ques
tion was obliged to descend because of a
severe storm.
The ride to and from Hood River, Mr.
Richardson says. Is through the heart
of the fruit district and affords the
visitor a splendid view of that well
known section. Automobiles run to a
point within four miles of the Inn. One
motor succeeded in covering the entire
distance, the four miles representing an
Incline of 3200 feet.
Discussing the return trip, Mr. Rich
ardson said:"
"On my return I visited Mr. and Mrs.
R. H. Wallace, formerly of this city,
who now live on their ranch In the Hood
River Valley. Certainly modern farm
ing Is a delight. ' Telephones connect ail
the farm homes with the town of Hood
River, and there are electric lights in
the poultry-houses, stables and out
buildings. One almost forgets that he is
not In the city.
"Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Wallace are
expert horticulturists now and know all
there is to be learned about farming, but
when they first located there a few years
ago, after Mr. Wallace had given yp .the
wholesale drug business In Portland, a
good many comical things happened. The
fruit-growers In Hood River Valley oc
casionally borrow from each other. The
first day of Mr. Wallace's residence at
Meadowbrook farm a neighbor came in
and wanted to borrow a potato planter,
apologizing for making such an early re
quest. Mr. Wallace informed him be was
welcome to It, but explained that he did
not .know Just where the different arti
cles around the farm were kept, and was
pleased when his borrowing neighbor as
sured him that he knew where the
planter was.
"By watching him, Mr.' Wallace
learned for the frrst time what a potato
planter looked like, and by .'keeping up
this method he finally got acquainted
with machinery or the names of It
used upon a modern farm. Mrs. Wallace.
In her department of the work, had sim
ilar experiences, but she has long since
found out that you can't make hens lay
until they get ready, and a good many
other things that come only by experi
ence. "Most of 'the farms throughout the
Hood River Valley are named, and many
men of wealth are buying places there.
The story of the advance in values dur
ing the last five or six years Is most In
teresting, particularly so when the com-,
parlsona are made upon a speclflo pieoe
of land.
"R. P. Loomls. .of New York City,
one of the largest apple buyers on the
continent, has . Just purchased land In
Hood River Valley, and the people of
the valley are very much delighted over
this fact.
"J. B. Stelnbach, Malcolm A. Moody.
J. Thofburn Ross and F. W. Baltes, of
Portland, are among the guests at Cloud
Cap Inn."
