11 EXPLOITS THE WEST Southern Pacific Announces a New Co-operative Plan. HELPS ADVERTISE CITIES Communities In the Pacific North west Will Be Aided In Securing Publicity by Two w Railroad Bureaus. Announcement has been made by the passeng-er department of the Southern Pacific Company of a new and strikingly original plan to attract the attention of the world to the advantages of the Pa cific Coast. The plan contemplates a large expenditure of money by the rail road for every community on the Coast which is willing to co-operate In the mat ter. The proposition Is belli-? made to the cities of the Pacific Northwest first and has already been adopted' by several of thm. Briefly, the Idna is far the rail read to Id communities In publicity work. The railroad plans to concentrate the efforts of communities along distinct lines so thst all question of satisfactory returns will be eliminated. So thoroughly Is the pnssenirer department convinced as to the feasibility and desirability of the plan which has been formulated that It Is willing to back It up with an outlay of from possibly tlOOO.OO to J30nO.OO In each In stance. Tt Is Impossible, however, to es timate accurately the value of the serv ices which the Southern Paclllc Company Offers in connection with this plan, which Is the result of many years' ex perience In community advertising and a development of the co-operative features of the passenger department of the Southern Pacific Company with Western communities. Tt hss been formulated in the belief that It solves many of the per plexing problems as to the wise expendi ture of the publicity funds. Experience proves that communities of ten make one of the following mis-takes: First, that the literature that they pre sent is unattractively gotten up: second, that the text is unconvincing: third, that the distribution of the booklets is poor; or. fourth, that the booklets are stored In the desks of business men until the Information they contain is worthless. In order that the Southern Pacific Company might mept such conditions and co-operate with communities so that their publicity funds miRht be Judiciously ex pended, the first problem to solve was In connection with the proper distribution of literature. For this purpose tills com pany has organized two information bu reaus: The Sunset Magazine Homeseek ers" Bureau of Information and the Sun set Magazine Travel Bureau of Informa tion. As Indicated, these bureaus will be conducted by the Sunset Magazine, and the Southern Tacific Company plans to make them the most complete bureaus of their kind in the country. Tlomeseekers In every part of the world are to be given accurate information free of charge about any section In the West. This Homescekers' Bureau will also-cooperate with communities in the distri bution of literature, offices for which have been established In, Portland. S-in Francisco and Ios Angeles In connect n with Sunset Magazine. " In addition to making a free distribu tion of literature and In aiding communi ties in getting Into touch with Inquiries In reference to their particular sections, the new plan contemplates the prepara tion nnd publication of high-grade liter ature for each community practically at the expense of the Southern Pacific Com pany. Writers of experience are to pre pare the manuscripts for booklets abso lutely freo of charge to communities and It Is expected that very effective argu ments will be produced for the Pacific Northwest. These unusual features for the plan have been adopted because the Southern Pacific Company has found by long experience that poor literature Is a waste of money. Attractive booklets with editions vary ing from S0.000 to 100.000 copies or more will be gotten up by Sunset Magazine Homeseekers" Bureau, which will make a distribution of the publications through five channels: First, to Pacific points cov ered by the Bureau: literature of the Pacific Northwest points will be sent to Southern California and to San Fran cisco and there distributed through the various agencies of the Southern Pacific Company to homeseekers in that sec tion of the country. Second Literature will be sent to names which have been furnished the Bureau by the allied Har rtman Lines of people In the East who contemplate moving Westward. 9uch names, for example. have been fur nished to the O. R. & N. Company by friends or relatives of such people in Oregon or Washington. Third Litera ture will be sent to the principal cities of the country (such as Salt Lake City, Denver. Omaha. Kansas City, St. Louis, New Orleans, Chicago and New Tork) in which the Harriman Lines have repre sentatives. There lias been a continued demand for such literature from people living, near the centers mentioned and who contemplate moving Westward. It is planned to' place booklets of com munities not only with the agents of the Harriman lines in the larger towns, but also so that they shall reach and be dis tributed In the network of the smaller towns which are covered by the Harri man Lines. Fourth Distribution of lit erature will be made to names -that are secured as a result of a very extensive advertising campaign on the part of the Southern Pacific Company. Ordinarily the advertising fund at San Francisco and Portland amounts to over 250,000.00 per year. As a result of this large ex penditure of money the Southern Pacific Company receives thousands of inquiries for specific information and it is to such names that the Pacific Coast booklets will be sent Fifth Distribution will be made to tho representatives of the Har riman I J lies In Europe, the headquarters of which are in Liverpool. England. The Harriman Lines publish a maga zine called "Abroad" simultaneously in Liverpool. London. Antwerp and Ham burg. This publication will co-operate with the new movement by the railroad and will reprint parts of the booklets that are issued by Western communities. The circulation of this magazine reaches a very desirable class of immigrants and It is expectrd that the distribution of the booklets and the publication of extracts in reference to the Pacific Coast and the Pacific Northwest will aid very material ly in bringing to the Pacific Coast a large number of the desirable and much-needed farming class. The Southern Pacific Company recently bad its official photographer mak a large number of views in Oregon. These views, supplemented with new ones taken from time to time, are to be used in connec tion with this publicity plan. Sunset Magazine is to be the official organ of the entire project and will be developed very materially along these lines. The aid that Sunset Magazine, will render the movement Is of an important character. For each community co operating with the railroad, the magazine will have prepared and will publish free a first-class Illustrated article about the community. In short, the plan In Its en tirety contemplates thorough co-operation between the railroad and communi ties of the Coast for their upbuilding, and it Is believed that it wiU tfo much toward .accelerating the movement west ward. The entire proposition, however, is contingent upon communities taking a page advertisement in Sunset Magazine for a year. The Pacific Northwest department of Sunset Magazine is in charge of Mr. William Bittle Wells, who is responsible for the adoption of this new co-operative plan. The offices of Sunset Magazine and the new bureaus are In the AVells Fargo building. In connection with the passenger department of the Southern Pacific Company. MULLER APPEAL IN COURT Oregon Ten-oHur Labor Suit Argued in Washington. WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. The right of a. state Legislature, under the Con stitution of tho United States, to enact a law prohibiting the employment of female laborers for more than ten hours & day, is involved in the case of Muller against the State of Oregon, which was argued before the Supreme Court of the United States today. As sistant Attorney Geweral Adams, of Oregon, and L. D. Brandels, of Boston, appearing for the state, and William D. Fen ton, of Oregon, for Muller. Muller is a Portland, Or., laundryman, who was prosecuted for a violation of the law and, being found guilty, ap pealed the case, and then attacked the law as In contravention pf the Consti tution because it stands in the way of freedom in the making of private con tracts. JURY TO TRY HALL CASE (Continued from First -Page.) Judgo Webster, but when asked by Mr. Heney if he thought he could serve Bf a juror and render a verdict according to the sworn tesnony tno law, he said: "Fellows Got the Land." "No. I don't think I could." "And why not?" followed Mr. Honey. "Because I think these fellows got the land," was the positive reply. Of the next two names called from the list, Eli Ramer, a farmer, residing at CYabtree, Linn County, was accepted, but John Henry, a Washington County farm er, was excused by the defense under its second peremptory challenge. L. Frank Moore a farmer residing at Dayton, Yamhill County, felt that he could not fairly try the defendants be cause he considered that the case at bar was connected with the general land fraud prosecutions that already had been before, the court. Judge Webster object ed to the juror, alleg'ng" that he was not qualified to serve, but Mr. Heney, who insisted on questioning Moore, drew out the. fact that the juror would cast aside all feelings he entertained as to the guilt of the accused, and would render a ver dict according to the testimony as pre sented. Judgo Hunt further questioned Moore and announced that he consid ered the man qualified to serve. Judge Webster then exhausted the third peremptory challrnge of the defense and excused Moore, at the same time reserv ing an exception to the ruling of the court as to the Juror's competency. At this stage in the proceedings, the defense had used up all of its peremp tory challenges and the Government had only one left. The next Juror called to the box was J. M. V. Bllyeu, of Linn County. He was acceptable to the de fense, but Heney associated him Indirect ly with Dorgan and Devine, two dealers in lands, and with a representative to whom Bllyeu had sold a timber claim he had acquired. On this showing Heney ex hausted his final peremptory challenge and caused Bllyeu to be excused. This announcement from the Government's representative caused an audible sigh to escape from that side of the table occu pied by the defendants and their counsel. Last Juror In Box. Only a few minutes were then required to select the last juror, and, after a vig orous questioning. Henry Freerksen. a retired L'nn County farmer, was accepted by both sides. There is no explanation as to how the name of L. C. Schorno, of this city, was included In the Jury list for this term of the Federal Court, other than that it was purely an oversight. Schorno had served as a Juror at the trial of Clarence B. Zachary in August, 1906. when the latter was found guilty of perjury. Under the rules governing the drawing of jurors Schorno Is disqualified from serving as iuror aealn for two years. If Attorneys Webster and Wilson observed this irreg uiaruy, tney saia notnmg. ana ua-u. piu ceeded with the examination of the Juror as to his qualifications to serve In the case on trial when Heney called the at tention of the opposing counsel to the fact that Schorno was disqualified. The juror, by consent of both sides, was ex cused by the court. Had Schorno been accepted and a ver dict 'found against the defendants, tech nical grounds would have " been afforded for a reversal of the judgment. Before adjourning court until 10 o'clock this morning Judge Hunt announced that the other jurors would be excused from further attendance on the court until 10 A. M. next Tuesday, January 21. Drunken Juror Aids Mexican. NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Jan. ' 15. (Special.l-udge Preble, of the Superior Court, today took under advisement the motion for a new trial In the case of Jos eph Flanney. Mexican half-breed, convict ed of murder in the first degree for the shooting of his wife last Summer. The ground of the motion was the alleged In toxication of one of the jurors during the night recesses when the Jurors were allowed to separate. WALKING Once an Effort, Now Real Pleasure. Walking, especially in the early morning. Is fine exercise, if one is robust enough to really enjoy it. If not, it is burdensome. A lady at Blount Springs. Ala,, where the water and fresh air did not seem to build her up as she hoped, found that Grape-Nuts .food was just what she needed to give strength. She writes: "Circumstances have made it nec essary for me and my family to board for the past five years and during that time I have suffered greatly from in digestion. Improper and poorly cooked food being the evident cause of my trouble. "Indigestion had become chronic and complications arose so that I lived for months at a time on raw eggs; could not even, take wine, brandy or milk the latter souring on my stom ach. I tried about every known rem edy and had been here for t month, drinking the water and walking morn ing, noon and night, trying to get relief. "Accidentally I heard of Grape-Nuts and i begnn to eat the food. After about three weeks on this food to gether with the exercises, I found the greatest relief. First noticeable in the morning walk and early rising, which before had been done with the greatest possiblo effort, but now have become a positive pleasure with a gain of 10 lbs. "Since using this food and being so improved, I meet others also, who have used it with like results. One lady who had been a great sufferer from nervous and stomach troubles has been entirely relieved and contlnuesto use Grape-Nuts- daily In her fai Imlly." 'There's a Reason."

AUDIENCE UNDER SPELL Crowd Assembled to Hear Noted Cartoonist Forgets Flight of Tim in Listening to Interesting Story of Trip Into Arabia. BT ARTHUR A. GREENE. It's always a foregone conclusion that whenever Homer Davenport comes back to his native state, and it Is announced that he will stand up in public and talk to his own kind of people well. It's a foregone conclusion, which, resolved back to the last analysis, znea'ns a dead cer tainty, and in some quarters is under stood to be "a Jead-plpe cinch." It's Just as sure that Homer Davenport will have an audience to hear him as that the sun will poke its head over the Cascades on a fair morning and shine upon the just and unjust who make their habitat .here. But last night at the White Temple It was better than all these certainties. The big First Baptist Church has seldom seen such a crowd as that which filled every seat In tho audience room, overflowed into the ante-chambers and fringed Itself around the walls, so Intent upon what was going forward that they forgot the fact that they were standing, that the speaker talked for two hours, and that even the well-carpeted floor of the White Temple Is hardi on feet. It was an ovation, that's what It was, and It made that big, childlike heart of Homer Davenport swell and grow mel low when he saw what the home folks had done in his honor. I've seen a lot of audiences, and many of them were in terested ones, but never have I seen a lecturer shown such intent attention as that one. When Mr. Davenport an nounced In the last five minutes of his remarks that he was on the point of quitting, some of the men In that big crowd shouted "go on," and threatened to Insist that there would be no going home unless he kept It up for another hour or two.' That naturally made the speaker feel good and proved beyond a peradventure that the Homer Davenport lecture was one of the biggest successes In the talk' line that was ever negotiated here. Introduced by Mr. Scott. Mr. Davenport was introduced by Harvey W. Scott, who has been a life long friend of him and of his family. It was eminently fitting that Mr. Scott should make the introduction, for the act had a personal significance to every one In the audience. Every one felt that there was no hollowness in the words he spoke, that they came out of the sin cerity of long years of friendship and mutual understanding. It was a most appropriate introduction. Mr. Scott said: I am to Introduce to you a native son of Oregon, who. however. Is so well known as to need no introduction. All .know him, though some of you may not have had the pleasure heretofore of meeting him. From one side of this continent to the other his pencil has made him known: and he has honored Oregon in his character as a man, as well as by the facility, originality and Judgment displayed in his work. Nor is he merely a sketch artist or cartoonist though his skill In work, of this kind has been the source of his fame. He is a lover of nature, fond of rural life, regards his horses and other animals as part of his family, comes back to Oregon as often as he can, drawn hither by his love of the land of his nativity, and by an unforgettlng filial duty for his father still lives in the old Oregon home. In the work of blB pencil humor and good will to men are blended with serious ness and earnestness and light touches of satire, but never with a touch of malice. He is a hearty and Jolly fellow, too. as u all may judge, by looking upon him the much better when it is your good fortune to come Into Intimacy with him. He Is a splendid companion and talks well, and when he takes the platform the spirit of his presence as well as the quality of his mat ter will entertain you. I Introduce Homer Davenport, of Oregon, New York, New Jersey and the United States; a citizen of the world also, who is a man to whom nothing that concerns man is foreign or in different. I present Homer Davenport. Audience Forgets Time. There was a veritable tumult of ap plause when . Mr. Davenport arose to speak, and) he was followed with the closest attention during the entire ad dress. Everybody forgot the passing of time. There was not a suggestion of restlessness and there was general re gret when It was over. That crowd would, have gladly stayed until the last car. It is an impossible task to report a Homer Davenport lecture. There must be the wonderful personality of the man al ways in the foreground, never obtrusive, but absolutely essential to the charm of what he has to say. He told stories of his early Oregon days, sometimes with the unction of the greatest of comedians and sometimes pathetic, with the simple, unaffected naturalness of a man' who does not deck himself with the poses and trap pings associated with celebrities. The greater portion of his remarks was devoted to his recent tour of Arabia, which he described in a wonderfully graphic manner. There were repeated bursts of applause, and at the close there was a spontaneous demonstration which lasted for several minutes. The entire af fair reflected grat credit on the White Temple congregation and was admirably conducted. IS SECRETARY STRAUS MAKES A PECULIAR RULIXG. Man Brought From Scotland YVho Has Expenses Advanced Must Be Sent Back to His Home. T A COMA, Wash., Jan. 15. (Special.) The local United States Immigration Bu reau ihas received word from the Secre tary of Commerce and Labor that J. W. Watson, bookkeeper for the J. & R. Wil son Company, will be deported. The de cision comes as a surprise to those inter ested In immigration work. At the hearing held before Inspector Fulton, It was shown that Watson was hired by Wilson & Co., in Scotland, where that firm advanced him the money to -pay his way here and that he was working for Ji0 a month. In the decision by Secretary Straus it is held that In proving that a bookkeeper could not be obtained It must be shown that all efforts such as the common one of advertising had been made and that the wages paid were up to the average. It was in evidence that the bookkeeper succeeded by Watson was getting $100 a month. He was discharged at about the time of Watson's arrival. Defy Sunday Closing. BELLIXGHAM. Wash.. Jan. 15.

And the sad fea ture of the deed,, which was ordered by the "kangaroo court" that rules the "dorm," was that the victims were of ficers of the court. Herman Allen, Olaf Caskin and Dell Floyd were the undergraduates who suffered at the hands of their own tri bunal, and they were punished because they- conducted a dormitory dance at the gymnasium last Friday and did not provide any chaperones or patronesses.
