ETHE
Enraged Salem Saloonmen
Pass Him In Silence.
RODGERS KEEPS UP FIGHT
Capital City Executive Proposes to
Kid City of Lndesirable "Joints."
Presents His Reform Ideas
in Veto Message.
SAUKM. Or.. March 23. (Special.)
Knrasred at the action of Mayor George
F. Rodgers in vrtoing the ordinance
reducing; the liquor license from $1000
to J70-, the saloon-keepers do not
speak to the city's chief executive
Tvlirn they meet iiim on the street.
Tlicir feelln-r toward the Mayor is not
likely to kiow more friendly, for Mr.
Ilodcers has asked the City Attorney
to draft an ordinance incorporating his
Ideas of saloon regulation. The ordi
nance wiil. in all probability, be in
troduced at the next session of the
f'lty Council, though the present atti
tude of the members of that body
gives little promise of its enactment.
In his veto message. Mayor Rodgers
thus enumerated the features of a
needed saloon regulation, and presum
ably these are the provisions he has
asked the City Attorney to place in
the forthcoming bill:
Major's Ideas to the Point.
Fix It so no llcenne will be given any man
n ho has b-en convicted of a telony. or who
flor not ineanure tip to certain moral stand
ard. Cut out the private bark rooms and
h-ixe. Kllmlnate women. Have the front
hunilv.arransrd w thoe who wish can see
In. Millie a drink to a drunken man work
a forfeiture of Ih-ense. rrohihit the eerond
Mory annex. Limit the number of saloons.
Inial upon decency, cleanliness and good
ord'-r. Certainly no man wortny of a license
It. golnit to object to these things.
When this has been accomplished,
tlio Mayor said he would be willing
that the license fee be materiaJly re
duced. Speaking of the matter today,
Mr. Rodgcrs said:
People Don't Know Conditions.
"Salem saloons, on the whole, com
pare very favorably with those of
other towns. A number of the liquor
dealers conduct their places in as or
derly a manner as one could ask. but
there are others who do not. There
ure a number of saloons in Salem a
whole lot worse than the people of this
rlly have any idea, and these are the
ones 1 want brought to time. There
are places with private rooms in the
rear with locks on the doors, and
where the voices of women may fre
quently be heard. There are saloon
keepers who sell iiquor to men who
pre already intoxicated, and who either
line the drunks up against the wall,
roll them out Into the woodshed or
turn thorn out on the streets. If the
people knew how bad some of the
places are. I believe they would get
rid of them."
In his message, the Mayor said
'lothlng about gambling in saloons, for
since the Mayor's raid upon one gam
bling Joint a couple of months ago.
there has be-n no complaint that
games art running.

SAX LUIS OBISPO. Cal.. March 23.
(Special.) Manager McCredie and his
hired men had another good workout
this afternoon and walked through the
local team, winding up the afternoon's
sport by whipping them 12 to 0. Long
Bobby Groom was the center of attrac
tion from the mid-diamond, and his
work was gilt-edged and ruby-studded.
During the Winter months the Illinois
farmer has been working on a slow
wave ball, and since he began training
he has been laboring to jortrol it. The
day was fine and warm and when Groom
thawed out and began using this ball,
it was a scream to see the other fel
lows trying to clout it.' The ball loafs
and bobs on Its journey to the plate
and then breaks sharply and hits the
glove with a thud. He struck out five
men and during the five innings he
worked not a man got the ball out of
the infield. This wave ball will be a
terror to the batters this season. . In
order to help out the local talent Mc
Credie loaned them Kennedy, Walsh
and Lakaff.
All of McCredie"s men are on deck
but Ryan, and Manager Mac expects to
see him blow along any day now.
Jesse Garrett was in uniform this af
ternoon and the Texan seems to have
everything. It would not surprise me
to see him make the team. Big Ed
Kinsella and his bride arrived this af
ternoon. Kinsella, like Garrett, blew
into Santa Barbara, only to find Mc
Credie had left. Both had to double
back. Kinsella looks fit and McCredie
will, pitch him in the opening game if
he rounds into shape all right.

OUTPUT MUST BE REDUCED
TOO MAN V HOPS GROWX IX THE
WORLD.
Acreage on the Coast Should Be Cut
63 Per Cent to Insure Profit
able Prices to Growers.
CHEHAL1S, Wash., March 21. (To
the Editor.) 1 enclose you herewith a
letter from Herman Klaber. which
contains a new idea or two in regard
to the hop situation. It "was written
in response to a request which I made
of Mr. Klaber, who is an extensive
grower of hops in this' district,-, to join
with other growers in reducing the
output of hops this' year by a cut of
30 per cent in the acreage cultivated,
provided owners of 90 per cent of the
acreage on the Pacific Coast would
make such an agreement.
As Mr. Klaber lias given permission
to publish the letter, I send it to you.
Respectfully. J. C. BUSH.
. TACOMA. Wash., March 14. Mr. J.
C. Bush, Chehalis, Wash.: Dear Sir
1 am in receipt of yours 13th, and
note contents. As you are aware, wc
have a contract on our yards with
Annis & Easterly to put the hops in
bale for us at a stipulated price, and
it is impossible for me to make any
arrangement witli these parties to let
the hops remain on the poles, there
fore 1 find that I cannot sign the agree
ment enclosed in 'your letter. I have
handed same to Isaac Pincus & Sons,
and they will address you themselves
on the subject.
In connection with this matter will
state that in the event that you are
successful in getting the required 90
per cent of the total crop on the Coast
into such an agreement, it will have
no effect on the price of hops next
season. The Pacific Coast is capable
of producing the following yield:
Bales.
California 100.000
Oregou .....160.000
Washington 40,000
Total 300,000
If 90 per cent of the acreage is se
cured, it will leave 270,000 bales.
Assuming that you get the 90 per cent,
your idea., as I undertand it. is to cul
tivate only 70 per cent. You would
still have 190.000 bales on the Coast.
If we raised 190.000 bales on the Pa
cific Coast this year, hops will not be
be wortli 5 rents a pound. I am will
ing to go on record to say that if we
produced only 100.000 bales in 1908 and
New York only produced 25.000 bales,
still hrips could not be worth 15 rents.
HEALTH OF ANIMALS BEST
BECAUSE OF GOOD DIGESTION
An interesting interview was re
cently obtained with L. T. Cooper, the
young man whose theory and medi
cines have created such a sensation
during the past year.
Mr. Cooper, in spaa king of the re
markable success of his medicine, had
this to ray on the subject: "My medi
cine regulates the stnmach. That Is
why it is successful. The human stom
ach today has become degenerate, and
is the cause for most ill health. In
the horse, the dog, and the wild ani
mals generally, you see no nerve ex
haustion, no chron ic debility. They
are not shut up day after day with
practically no exercise, and they are
not able to stuff themselves with food
when their bodies have not had enough
work to justify it. The human race
has been doing this for years. . and
look at the result half the people are
complaining of poor health, not real
illness just a half-sick, tired, droopy
feeling. They don't really know what
is the matter with them.
"I know that all the trouble is caused
by weak, overworked stomachs. I have
proved this with my medicine to many
thousands of people in most of the
leading cities of this country. I expect
to do the same thing in Europe next
year. Tuis is the- real reason for the
demand for my preparation."
Among those who have recently been
converted to Cooper's theory is Mr.
Monroe Brown of S Hancock street,
Winchester. Mass. Mr. Brown has this
to ray of his experience with the new

BASEMENT
II
With the enormous pressure of surplus
hops on hand all over the world, I do
not think hops would be worth much
over cost of production, if only half
the hops in the world were produced
this year.1 There are 25.000 to 30,000
bales of 1906 Pacific In London, be
sides this about 20,000 bales more of
1906 hops belonging to Paul Horst are
on the way to London now. Brewers
in England and on the continent, like
wise in the United States, have natur
ally bought heavily at the low prices
prevailing the. past two or three years
and are -so heavily stocked that as a
general thing none need any 1 90S hops
at all. We had a letter from Germany
a few days ago advising us that brew
ers on the continent have sufficient
hops on hand to last them up to April
1, 1909. and a good many of them up
to July 1, 1909, and would not require
any hops at all of the 1908 crop, ex
cept a few to mix with the olds. This
condition also exists in England, and we
know positively that all the English
brewers are loaded to the fullest capacity
of their storage warehouses. The chances
are that we will carry over in the United
States into the 1908 crop 30.000 to 40.000
hales of 1907 hops and 15.000 to 20,000 bales
of 1906 hops, therefore you will observe
that the surplus keeps piling Up every
year. Brewers in the United States, as
well as In England, will operate very
cautiously in their hop purchases from
now on on account of their fear of ad
verse . liquor legislation.
If 75 per cent of the hops on the Coast
are left unpicked this year and 50U0 acres
plowed up In England, as is now esti
mated, and the continental crop comes
down light, we may. get cost price out of
our hops in 1908 and a small profit in 1909.
If the hopgrowers union had been as
energetic in working to reduce the acre
age on the Coast as they were in other
matters, which I have always claimed
Were impracticable, they would" probably
have done considerable good work by this
time and their organization would have
been, a success. The hopgrowers union
terminated as I predicted an absolute
failure, because they were working on
the wrong lines. You will no doubt recall
that I cave my views publicly on this
proposition, and you are now at liberty
to make my statements public if you so
desire.
If the growers expect to get anything
for their hops for the next two or three
years it will be necessary to leave more
than 37 per cent of the crop on the Coast
unpicked this year. It will be necessary
almost to leave 63 per cent unpicked, and
only harvest 37 per cent.
You cannot act 90 per cent of the acre
age on the Coast to sign up. for several
reasons. Firstly: You cannot interest 90
per cent of the growers to harvest only
70 per cent because my experience is that
most growers are waiting for the other
fellow to do the plowing up.
Secondly There arc more than 10 per
cent of the total crop on the Coast now
contracted and surely none of those who
have been fortunate to contract their
hops at a price which shows some profit
will asree to such a proposition.
A.s stated in the outset, it is impossible

medicine: "For over seven years I suf
fered with cutarrh of the stomach, and
for the past year I was lame with
rheumatism. I attributed this to my
stomach, trouble, as my circulation was
very poor. What food I ate would turn
to gas almost at once. I would have a
sensation of bloating, and would have
to belch frequently to relieve this. My
heart also became affected, and I would
suddenly become dizzy and have palpi
tations. I was tired and dull and de
spondent at all times. I lost a great
deal of flesh and was nervous and de
pressed. This went on for over seven
years, although I spent hundreds of
dollars trying to get relief.
"When Cooper wan in Boston I heard
a good deal about his ideas on stomach
trouble. Next, one or two friends told
me that his medicines 'had greatly
helped them. I purchased some of the
New Discovery medicine. Today I am
perfectly well; I sleep like a boy, can
eat anything and have no rheumatism
or heart troublt. J no longer have any
gas on my stomach, and feel as I did
years ago. No one could be more aston
ished by these facts than myself. They
are remarkable but true. This is In

IRRIGATE UiS OF VALLEY
PROJECT l"Ort WATERING THE
YAKIMA COUNTRY.
Most Important Scheme for That
Section Since Beginning of
Tieton Project.
NORTH YAKIMA. March 22. (Special.)
A project, wnich will add several thous
and acres to the irrigated land in the
lower Yakima Valley is being financed
bj- the Denny-Blain people of Seattle and
Yakima Valley capitalists. The project
involves the union of the Sclah-Moxeo
and the Lombard arid Horsley ditch in
terests and the tunneling of the Sclah
hill, north of this city, and of the hill
on the east side of Union Gap. south of
the city. The two tunnels will cost, it
is estimated, in the neighborhood of
$150,000. but will make feasible the rais
ing of the level of the water carried by
the two canals to a point at which a
great tract of dry land above hc Sunny
side Canal can be supplied.
Those who are behind the scheme have
already secured options on a consider
able area of the land to be watered and
the project, if it goes through, will be
one of the most important developments
in the Yakima country since the inaugu
ration of the Tieton project by the
United States reclamation service.
Among the local men interested in the
project is Mayor H. H. Lombard, of this
city, and several prominent bankers. The
Lombard & Horsley ditch and the Selah
Moxee ditch have their intakes in the
Yakima River about 15 miles northwest
of this city, and the supply of water at
that point is abundant.
