land, and all living in this beautiful and glorious. Pacific Northwest Country must know
that Portland is destined to be its financial and social center.
DENOMINATIONS These certificates are issued in denominations of from $25
upwards, allowing the small investor the same privilege of profit sharing and an equal
advantage of the large and assured advances of Business Real Estate, as is enjoyed by
the man of great wealth. Remember, the interest commenced May 1st, 1908, and is now
PROFITS This certificate has four earning powers Bonus, Interest, Income
and Increase Valuation. .'
NO RISK Its principal and interest is held in -trust and hence cannot be misap
plied or dissipated.
GUARANTEE In addition to its funds being invested in Portland Business
Real Estate under a trusteeship, The Standard Trust Company of Portland, Oregon,
guarantees its principal and interest without reservation.
NO DEPRECIATION Regardless of what depreciation may occur in the real es
tate market, these certificates being guaranteed in principal and interest, will never go
below par.
CASHABLE The Standard Trust Company will purchase these certificates two
years from their date of issue, paying the principal face value with a 2 per cent bonus
and all accrued interest thereon
INCOME One-half of the net income received from the property held, in trust
for these certificates,. will be paid to the certificate holders, and available data show
net income should range from 8 per cent to 15 per cent per annum.
INTEREST The interest on these certificates commences May 1, 1908, payable
semi-annually and is guaranteed absolutely, under a trusteeship.
INCREASE VALUE The increase value of Portland Business Real .Estate has
been steady and healthy and easily ."justifiable. Within the last few years the Eastern :
money interests have fully realized the many and wonderful resources of Oregon, among
which are its agricultural lands, its timber and its water powers, 'all needing develop
ment and exploitation. These resources must all pay tribute to Portland, and it is easy
to reason why Portland business property has within the past six or seven years in
creased from 175 per cent to 400 per cent, and it is safe to predict that the next five or
ten years will see even a greater increase.
DIVIDENDS The property purchased and held for these certificates will be so
held under trusteeship for ten years and then sold. The certificate holders will receive
in addition to the face of their certificates and the interest and income paid on them,
one-half of the increased valuation of the property, being the difference between the
purchase price and the selling price of the property, which can easily be estimated be
tween 200 per cent and 300 per cent, for every reason gives evidence that Portland
should have between 500,000 and 600,000 population within the next ten years.

Transport Sherman Is Ordered
to Portland.
BLOW TO BUREAUCRATS
They Turn Down Fulton by Refer
ring, to Old Maps, but He Ap
peals to Roosevelt, Who
Overrules Them.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, May 11. By direction of the Presi
dent, the War Department today sent a
cablegram to Manila ordering the trans
port Sherman to sail direct- for Portland
with troops for Vancouver Barracks. The
Sherman will sail from Manila Friday
next.
This order was issued this morning at
the earnest solicitation of Senator Fulton,
who first endeavored to persuade the
Quartermaster-General and then the act
ing Secretary of War to send this ship to
Portland, rather than to San Francisco.
Strange to say, both officials produced old
maps showing but 19 feet of water at the
mouth of the Columbia and declared it to
be unsafe to send a transport through
such a shallow channel. The Senator
labored to convince them that there was
upwards of 25 feet of water on the bar
at low tide, due to recent improvements;
but they refused to accept his figures or
abandon the old figures which had crept
into their files. ,
It was after thi experience that the
Senator went to the White House and
laid the matter carefully before the Presi
dent, explaining to him how the Depart
ment was basing its action an antiquated
records. When the President appreciated
the situation, he Immediately gave In
structions to have the Sherman sent to
Portland.
Mr. Fulton will follow this up with an
attempt to have the Government records
of channel depths brought up to date, so
that In future, when transports or war
ships have occasion to go to Portland, the
War and Navy Departments may know
how much water can be found on the bar.
ALMOST BURSTS AYITH RAGE
Senate Rebuffs Heyburn by Increas
ing Forest Appropriation.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. May 11. Senator Heyborn's views
on forestry are not popular in the Sen
ate. After all the Idaho Senator has said
in denunciation of the forestry policy and
forestry administration and on top of his
demand that the appropriation be re
duced, the Senate today by a vote of 38
to 23 voted to give Forester Pinchot
twice as much money as he asked for;
they increased his appropriation from
$500,000 to $1,000,000. The increase was
proposed by Senator Dixon, and Heyburn.
confident he could defeat it. demanded
a rollcall with the above result.
When the vote was announced Hey
burn nearly burst with anger, and when
he could restrain his feelings somewhat
lectured the Senate on its foolhardlness,
predicting all manner of dire things that
will result if the Forest Service is not
checked. But the Senate has become
utterly tired of Mr. Heyburn's lectures
and paid him scant attention.
Further along, Mr. Heyburn very near
ly defeated Senator Fulton's amendment
giving the states 25 per cent of the re
ceipts from forest reserves within their
respective boundaries. They now get 10
per cent, which Is to be utilized for road
construction and for public schools. Mr.
Heyburn said his state could not use
any of this money for road construction
and quibbled long over a technicality,
finally demanding that Mr. Fulton elimi
nate roads from his amendment. This
Mr. Fulton declined to do, showing that
Mr. Heyburn s objection was childish
and silly. Meantime a point of order
had been made against the amendment,
but this was withdrawn and the amend
ment adopted.
