MAY HAVE OLD OFFENDER Police Beliere Kalowich Guilty of Many Crimes. K. Kalo wich, who was arrested by Po licemen Tennant and Hunter at 3 o'clock Sunday morning in an old building at Front and Flanders streets. Is believed by the police to be one of the worst railroad thieves and hold-up men ever captured in this city. Kalowich was arrested after an exciting chase of several blocks, and, after entering an empty building, was found in the cellar in the act of hiding a .32-caliber revolver and a cap fitted with a black mask. f One of the men who held up the Bis marck saloon, on Twenty-first and Tliur jnan streets, a few nights ago, wore a black cap and mask, and answers the general description of Kalowich, and the police believe he Is the man. Owing , to the fact that Kalowich had 11 pairs of shoes and several pairs of rubbers in his possession when pursued by Policemen Tennant and Hunter, .- the police also ascribe .a number of recent robberies of freight cars to him. He pretends to have only a limited knpwledge of English, and will not give the police any information whatever. It is believed that Kalowich Is one of an organized gang and detec tives are seeking his confederates. JOURNEY BRINGS SUCCESS BILIj INTRODUCED TO SERVE OREGON TRAIL, PRE- Representative H,umphrey Backs Up Ezra Meeker, Who Made. Not - able Journey With Ox-Team. WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. The work of Ezra Meeker, the pioneer who came all the way from Puyallup. Wash.,, in a prairie schooner of the pattern in which he- had crossed the plains 54 years before, to mark the way of the old Oregon Trail, seems- to be about rewarded with suc cess. Representative Humphrey has in troduced into the House a bill providing for the appointment of a commissioner to take charge of the work of marking this, trail, and also for an appropriation of $50,000 to carry on the work. Mr. Meeker has had printed for broad cast distribution a circular giving the story of his trip across the country and containing also the history of the Oregon Trail, tracing it from the starting point at Independence, on the Missouri River till It ended at Fort Vancouver. With his pamphlets' and talks he succeeded in in teresting many people in the preservation of the old road. Following is the text of Representative Humphrey's bill: A bill authorizing: .the President to appoint a commissioner to super-vim the erection of monuments and markers, and locate the gen eral route of the Oregon trail. him it enacted by tbe .Senate and House of Representatives of the United States' of Amer ica in OonprePK assembled, that the Presi dent of the United States be, and he hereby is, authorized to appoint a commissioner who shall, under the directions of the President,, erect such monuments and markers of granite -and other material as will 'designate and locate tli general route of the Oregon trail and fit tingly commemorate the valorous deeds of those who established and traveled said trail from the. left bank of she Missouri River to Puget Sound. ' Section 2. That said commissioner shall, wi.th the approval of the President, determine the position, character and number of such monuments or markers and the inscriptions they. shall bear. Section 3. That said commissioner, under the direction of the President, let hereby au thorized to solicit and receive -funds and ex pend the same, given to assist in carrying out the marking of raid route, as herein provided. Section 4. That 4he compensation of said commissioner ehal! be fixed by the President, but not to exceed the sum of $2500 per annum. Section 6. That for -the purpose of carrying our the provisions, of this act $50,000. or so much thereof as shall be necessary, is hereby appropriated out of any moneys in the treas ury not otherwise appropriated.

SECOND ."FIGHTING THE BEEF TRUST" WHY WE ARE "FIGHTING THE BEEF TRUST " When the Beef Trust came to Port land it demanded that every butcher in the clcy BOOS'i" the price of meat from 3c to iOc per lb. The slogan was "Boost the price;, never knock!" Smith refused to join the " Boos tern," whereupen the Beef Trust ordered the butchers of the -city to buy '"not a pound of meat frqm Smith." Smith then turned to the retail public and sold meat- at wholesale prices. He has done it for two years; he will keep a-doing it. N'H until the Trust is lying helpless in the ash-heap will Smith give up hiB motto: "Fighting the Beef Trust." It devolves upon everv Portland family to, buy its meat at Smith's. If the Beef Trust should get a grip on the town the price of meat would go about double. Oregon people will never pay Kastern prices for meat as long as they stand by Smith.
