It is the evident Intention of the
fuel dealers of the city to maintain
the present retail prices of both wood
anil coal, which almost prohibit the
workinerman from purchasing fuel. Yet
he must either pay the price, cut his
own wood, or go without.
Good grades of coal are selling for
$10 and $10.00 a ton. while the best
frrade of coal on the market retails for
$14 a ton.
The same high prices prevail for
Blabwood and fir. To obtain dry sawed
slabwood of the meanest kind the
householder must pay $4.75 a load,
which means about three-fourths of a
cord. Block wood, or Inside wood,
comes higher. For the dry sawed fir
$7.50 a load is asked. These prices are
for short hauls, where it is necessary
to take the wood to a distance the
charge is higher.
The present prices are even higher
than those asked last Winter, when
the silver thaw put the roads In bad
condition for the hauling of heavy
loads. But at the present time, when
labor Is plentiful on account of the
men laid off by the railroads, and when
the streets are in the finest condition
which the weather could make possi
ble, the price continues to soar.
Extra Charge for Hauls.
"We are getting $7 for four-foot fir
wood," said George A. Steel,, president
of the Portland Fuel Company, yester
day, "and $7.50 for the same wood
sawed. For four-foot oak we are
charging $S a .cord."
"What extra charge do you make for
long hauls?" was asked.
"Oh, I don't know much about the
prices," replied Air. Steel. "Mr. School
field, our secretary, attends to these mat
ters. We make an extra charge for haul
ing beyond Must Twenty-eighth street, ac
cording to distance. No, we don't have
any regular rate for long distances.
"These high prices are just as bad for
the dealer as for the consumer. We are
not making much even at this high price
for wood: In fact, we would rather have
low cost and low prices."
Mr. Steel admitted that it cost the com
pany $1.35 to get the wood cut, that the
stumpage is 25 cents, and that it costs
about $1 to bring the wood to the city.
He said that to haul it'to the consumer
and to pay for office help cost nearly an
other dollar. He did not mention any
further expense attached to getting out
and delivering the wood, so that at this
rate the company would make a net
profit of practically 50 per cent on every
cord of wood sold.
Slabwood at $4.75 a Cord.
M. C. Banfleld, of the Ban Held-Veysey
Fuel Company, refused last night to give
to the press his prices on slabwood. This
company is reported selling dry, sawed
elabwood for $4.75 a cord where there Is
a very short haul, and retails the green,
awed slabwood for $4.25. This is the
price for the outside wood, the block
wood and inside wood being sold at a ma
terial advance. The Portland Slabwood
Company maintains practically the same
prices for slabwood as the Banfield Com
pany. Charles K. Aylsworth. of the Sunny-
side Fuel Company, said yesterday that
his company carries two grades of fir
which retail at $7.50 and $6.50 a cord. In
the four-foot lengths. He said the com
pany had been able to get but half the
cars ordered and needed, and that fpr
nine days in the last two weeks he had
been compelled to leave his men Idle and
his horses In the-barns because the O. W.
P. & R. Company did not furnish the
cars necessary to haul the wood In from
Gresham and Estacada. He named other
fuel companies, however, which he said
could get all the cars they wanted.
William Jones, of F. B. Jones & Com
pany, said that this company expects to
obtain 150 tons of coal a week from Cold
Creek, Or., near Stella, which is to re
tall at $S a ton.
A. I . Stephens, of the Pacific Coast
Company, said the best coal In Washing
ton sells to the dealer here for $6.50 a
ton. He asserted that the freight rate
on this to Portland is $1.75 a ton. This
firm Is selling coal for from $7.50 to $12.
The Independent Coal & Ice Company
has raised the price of Its Welch An
thracite coal from $13 a ton to $14 a ton.
It has also raised the price of Carbon
Hill coal from $11.50, which was the
selling price in September, to $12. The
cheapest coal this company carries Is
$10.50 a ton. O. M. Rankin, of the com
pany, said last night that Wllkeson mine,
at Wllkeson, Wash., has been closed for
some time, and the Carbon Hill mine
has now closed, on account of the strike
among the miners.
KILTIES BAND TOMORROW
First Concert by Famous Organiza
tion at the Armory.
With a record of over 4000 concerts
played In the past seven years, the
famous "Kilties" Band, of Canada, will
appear In this city for three perform
ances. Friday nit?ht, Saturday matinee
i and Saturday night, at the Armory.
The "Kilties' have recently returned
frohl a triumphal tour of Mexico, where
Ihey were the first musical organization
from a foreign country touring that re
public and playing the best theaters.
There is no other concert band in the
world as unique as this one. Not only
is It a remarkable combination of high
class artists who render classical and
popular music with an equal musical
understanding, but it represents In cos
tumes and appearance the Nation from
which each player is sprung. The men,
who wear the kilts of Scotland (from
which the name "Kilties" Is derived) are
nil Scotch Canadians, and accompanying
the band is a splendid male choir, which
sings the ballads of the mother .country
as none but Scotch can.
In addition to these singers, there is a
troupe of Scotch pipers and dancers,
headed by Angus McMillan Fraser, who
dances with true Scotch fervor and re
markable grace.
The visit of the Kilties to Portland Is
an event that will be enjoyed by all who
hear these traveled. talented players.
Seats are now on sale at Rowe & Mar
tin's drug store.
COMPLY WITH FRANCHISES
St. John, City Attorney ScrTes Notice
on Telephone' Companies.
Though the St. John Council is not hold
ing regular business meetings during the
bank holidays. Mayor Couch and the
Councilmen meet every Tuesday night to
talk over city affairs. This was done
Tuesday nigjit. City Attorney Greene
discussed the franchises granted the tele
phone companies about the first of the
year. He said that the franchise of the
Home Telephone Company was passed
June 14. and that while the company bas
until December 14 to start work on its
St. John plant It has so far done noth
ing. The City Attorney declared that he
would move for the forfeiture of the
franchise of the Home Telephone Com
pany Immediately after December 14 if
the company, does not comply with Its
requirements in full.
"This granting of franchises to com
panies and then letting them sleep with
out doing anything," declared Attorney
Greene, "will not be tolerated In St.
John. The Pacific States Telephone Com
pany secured a franchise on its agree
ment to establish' an exchange in St.
John and give the people acceptable tele
phone service, but It has made no move
to carry out that agreement. I give notice
that both these companies must carry out
their agreement with the Council."
Complaint having been made that the
sewer from the St. John Woolen Mills
does not reach the river, but discharges
near the plant of the St. John Ship Build
ing Company, this matter was discussed.
The ship building company has threat
ened to take the matter up In another
form unless the Council orders the woolen
mill to extend its sewer to the Willamette
River and remove the menace to the
health of the employes of the ship com
pany. Other affairs. Including street Im
provements that are now held up were
discussed.
The City Attorney Is looking carefully
into the legal phases of the special elec
tion January 6. 1908. Fpobably there will
be three questions submitted to the
voters the new city charter, bonding the
city in the sum of $75,000 for parks and
a public dock and annexation of new ter
ritory. It means three special elections
on the same day.

tor w. Incinerator Is Intro
duced Money Voted to Fight
Introduction of Plague.
After many weeks devoted to the con
sideration ' of various sites proposed for
a new and modern garbage crematory,
the ways and means committee, yester
day submitted two reports to the Council.
The majority report recommended that
the new Incinerator be built on the site
of the present "bake oven" at Twenty
fifth street and Guild's Lake, and after
the opponents of that location had their
say In favor of other districts of the
city, the majority report of the com
mittee was adopted, thus bringing to an
end a controversy that has injected, more
bitterness Into Council debates than any
other matter coming before that body In
a long time.
An ordinance was afterward introduced
providing for an appropriation of 60,000
for the erection of the crematory under
the direction of the Board of Health. It
was understood that this amount would
not be sufficient for the purpose, but In
order to have some basis upon which to
solicit bids it was thought necessary to
name an amount In the ordinance which
may be Increased after the committee on
ways and means has reported back with
Its recommendation as to the amount
necessary.
City Treasurer Werloin submitted his
regular report showing the condition of
the several funds, and also a statement
showing where city funds are on deposit.
The latter report was substantially the
same as presented at the special meeting
of the Council a few days ago and printed
In The Oregonlan. The report of the
condition of the standing funds follows:

ST0MAC
OF HUMAN
New Theory Advanced by Young Man Is
Spreading Over Entire Country
L. T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach, which he claims to
prove with his new medicine. Is being
given more respect and comment every
day.
Cooper claims that 90 per cent of
all ill health Is due to stomach trouble.
When Interviewed about his theory re
cently, he said: "Stomach trouble la
the great curse of the 20th century
so far as the civilized races are con
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
111 health of this generation Is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions.. In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer to nature, and men and women
worked all day out of doors, digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, ,half-slck people that
are now so common, did not exist,
"To be sure, there was sickness In
those days, but .It was of a virulent
character, and only' temporary. There
was none of this half-sick: condition
all tha time with which so many are
afflicted nowadays, z'"
"I know positively that every bit of
this chronic 111 health Is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
In civilized people today Is degenerate.
It lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness has gradually come ' through a
sedentary existence. I further know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus In perfect shape.
The sole reason for my success Is be
tain Ward suddenly opened his eyes and
gazing quizzically on bis two comrades
remarked: "Well, one of the greatest
mistakes of my life was that I did not
make a better selection of my friends."
The two watchers were dumbfounded
until a feeble chuckle brought them to a
realization of the Joke. Captain Ward
yesterday was reported considerably bet
ter, although not entirely out of danger.
He is at the home of his son, Wilbur
Ward.

She says: "For several years I was

i n Don't
Treat Cases
I Can't Cure
I treat for real and lasting cures. Every rem
edy I employ has its part in bringing positive
and permanent results. Under my treatment
the patient who notes improvement in his con
dition can feel assured that real benefit and
not a temporary drug effect has been obtained,
and can continue with confidence that a thor
ough cure is being accomplished. My success
as a specialist is due to the fact that I accept
no incurable disease and always treat with a
cure in view, never resorting to the use of a
remedy that brings out temporary encourage
ment to the patient.
WEAKNESS
I use neither
knife, ligature
nor caustic In
m y treatment
for Varicocele. I
positively cure
this disorder by
a n absolutely
painless method
and without de
tainlng the
patient from
business.
I have conclusively demonstrated the
fact that derangement of the mascu
line functions Is a curable ailment.
That there has been considerable di
versity of opinion upon this point
among the profession is but an evi
dence that functional weakness bas
not been thoroughly understood and
has been unscientifically treated.
Though commonly regarded as a
nervous disorder. It has never, yield
ed when treated upon this theory.
I have ascertained by the closest
observation In thousands of cases
that only In rare instances is the
general constitution or nervous sys
tem involved to any noticeable de
gree whatever, and that "weakness,'
in all Its phases Is merely a symp
tom of nervous disorder. In by far
the greater number of cass the
functional derangement Is due to a
single case, a chronically Inflamed
condition of the prostate gland,
brought on by early dissipation or
lingering as a result of . some Im
properly treated contracted disorder.
Such cases mav show temporary im
provement under stimulating pro
cesses of treatment, but ultimate re
lapse Is certain to follow all such
methods. The only radical cure Is

GAINED TWENTY POUNDS,
PLEURISY CURED.
Mr. I. Brown, of 614 Bingham Avenue, Pittsburg, Pa., Who
Suffered from a Severe Case of Pleurisy, Which Left His Lung
in a Weak Condition, Was Completely Cured and Re
stored to Health by the World's Greatest Medicine.
In a recent interview Mr. Brown said: "I deem it my duty to state
what Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has done for me. In the Fall of 1905 I
contracted a severe cold, which I neglected until it developed into pleurisy
in my right side. I did considerable doctoring for it, and I seemed to get
all right. I returned to work, but again immediately contracted another se
vere cold, which found me in a weakened condition. I tried many different
kinds of medicines, which did not seem to help me ; I was very weak and run
down, and I decided what I needed was a tonic-stimulant to build me up, so I
made up my mind to try Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. I am very thankful
that I did; it has put new life in mfy it took out the pleurisy and healed my
left lung, which was left in a very weak condition, and I feel as strong and
hardy as it is possible for any man to' feel. I have a good appetite and
have gained twenty pounds in weight; and, while I am a temperance advo
cate and do not believe in drinking intoxicating beverages, whenever I feel
the need of a tonic and stimulant I do not hesitate to take Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey. I can heartily recommend it to any one who is run down
and is troubled with colds or pleurisy." ,
Unsolicited testimonials like the above come from thousands of men
and women who have been cured and restored to health by Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey,-
is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain ; great care being used to
have every kernel thoroughly malted, thus destroying the germ and pro
ducing a predigested liquid food in the form of a malt essence, which is the
most effective tonic-stimulant and invigorator known to science; softened
by warmth and moisture 'its palatability and freedom from injurious sub
stances renders it so that it can be retained by the most sensitive stomach.
It is an absolutely pure, gentle and invigorating stimulant and tonic,
builds up the nerve tissues, tones up the heart, gives. power to the brain,
strength and elasticity to the muscles and richness to the blood. It brings
