ASIATIC LINERS
TO COME DIRECT
Local Importers of Gunnies
Succeed in Cutting Out
San Francisco.
LARGE CARGO ON ALESIA
Duties Will Amount to $50,000,
Princlpaly on Grain Bags and
Burlap Matting and Mer- .
chandlse for the East.
United action on the part of Portland
Importers of bags and gunnies has forced
the operators of the Portland & Asiatic
Steamship Company to cut out San Fran
cisco as a port of call for vessels of the
line. The Alesia entered at the Custom
Ilouse yesterday morning direct from
Hongkong and way ports with a cargo
that will pay close to JoO.000 duties to
the Government. The largest item of
value was gunnies and burlap, all of
which will be cleared at Portland.
The cargo of tho Alesia is consigned
principally to merchants in Portland, the
items for Eastern cities being curios,
matting, tea and general Chinese mer
chandise. The gunnies for Portland
amount to 17K8 bales and the burlap to
iHO bales. Portland is also on the mani
fest for Sno bags of rice and 1096 bags
of peanuts, in addition to a large quantity
of general Chinese merchandise.
Some time ago the management of the
Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company
announced that all steamers of that line
would stop on the Eastward trip at San
Francisco and would discharge all East
ern freight at that point. The Nicomedia
did stop at the California port and
dropped more than 4000 tons of cargo. The
importers (principally of bags), of Port
land, announced that if this plan was
continued all the gunnies would be
diverted to the steamships entering Puget
Sound. This was also true of the Eastern
shipments of general merchandise. . The
result would be to give the Great North
ern and the Northern Pacific a good
chance at the Oriental imports destined
for cities in the East.
The Inward manifest of the Alesia is
as follows:
For Portland 176S bales of gunnies, 250
bales of burlap, 100 bags of tapioca, 50
bags of pepper, 8000 bags of rice, 1096
bags of peanuts, 11.10 packages of mer
chandise, 44 cases of curios.
For New York 5 cases of merchandise,
40 crates of curios, 4 cases of books.
For St. Paul 20 crates of curios.
For Peoria 1 crates of curios.
For Minneapolis 3S crates of curios.
For Kansas City 6 crates of curios.
For Chicago 20 cases of merchandise,
$4 crates of curios.
For Baltimore 1041 rolls of matting.
For St. Ixuis 34 crates of curios.
For Omaha 345 chests of tea.
For Denver 457 cases of merchandise.
COMPLAIN' OF IilGHTKEEPERS
Crew of Wrecked Minnie E. Kelton
File Charges Against Wilson.
NEWPORT. Or., May 13. (Special.)
It is learned from good authority
here that an investigation has been
ordered into the conduct of Yaquina
Head Light. Complaint has been made
by members of the crew of the
steamer Minnie E. Kelton that no no
tice was taken of signals of distress
although the vessel lay not more than
10 miles from the lighthouse for a
period of 24 hours. The crew main
tained while here that they had seen
the keepers of the lighthouse walking
about, but that though their distress
(signal was Hying, it was not until
word had been sent from up the coast
that the life-savers were informed of
their plight.
Head Keeper H. E. Wilson was form
erly a chief engineer on a lighthouse
tender and has but recently succeeded
Keeper Plummer. -who kept Yaquina
light for nearly 30 years. It is under
stood that the lighthouse men assert
that the Kelton did not appear to be
disabled at any time. They admit that
they did not sight her till 10 A. M.
Sunday, and even then did not suppose
she was in distress. When they Anally
decided that she must need assistance
they hoisted a flag but pulled it down
within a few minutes, as the life-savers
were already at sea, bound for the
wreck.
SURVEYS MIXNTE E. KELTOX
Captain Genereau Arranging: for
Wrecking Steam Schooner.
Captain E. G. Genereau, of the San
Francisco board of underwriters, was in
Portland yesterday making arrangements
for the wrecking of the steam schooner
Minnie E. Kelton. Captain Genereau has
made one examination of the craft as
she lies on the mud flats near Warrenton.
In Portland he made arrangements for
a large pump which was sent to Astoria
last night. The Kelton will be pumped
out and then taken to Astoria, where the
lumber cargo will be discharged. She
will then be towed to St. John and will
go on the dry dock for general survey.
"I cannot say how much of the Kelton
in in good shape at present," said Captain
Genereau. "The craft Is full of water
and It will be necessary to pump her
out and discharge the lumber In the hold
before I can fully determine her condi
tion. The Kelton is built on a different
plan from the steam schooners on ' this
Coast. Her boilers are on the main deck
and I think this Is a good plan. It cer
tainly helped In this case."

FILE PETITION
Court Directs Acceptance of
Hamilton's Name.
WILL APPEAR ON BALLOT
Presiding Judge Gantenbeln Allows
Independent Candidate for Rail
road Commissioner to Have
His Candidacy Recognized.
A writ of mandamus was issued yes
terday by Presiding Judge Gantenbeln, of
the Circuit Court, against County Clerk
Fields, directing him to receive the pe
tition of J. N. Hamilton as an independent
candidate for Railroad Commissioner.
The decision of Judge Gantenbeln settles
the question as to whether it is proper
for candidates to this office to file their
petitions with the Secretary of State or
with the County Clerk. Hamilton was
defeated at the primaries. He then sought
to file a petition to run independently,
with the Secretary of State, and was re
ferred to the County Clerk. "When he ap
plied to the County Clerk he was refer
red back to the Secretary of State.
The law of 1907 created a Railroad Com
mission and provides for the appointment
of three Commissioners, one to be chosen
by the people at large, one 'by the people
of the First Congressional District and
one by the voters of the Second Con
gressional District. Section 2797 of the
election laws provides that "all certifi
cates of nomination of candidates for
offices to be filled by the electors of the
Btate at large and for members of Con
gress shall be filed with the Secretary of
State." The section which follows this.
No. 2798, reads: "All certificates of nom
ination of candidates for offices to be
filled by the electors of an electoral dis
trict, other than a Congressional District,
or county, or precinct, shall be filed with
the County Clerk of the county; and if
such electoral precinct embraces more
than one county, then a duplicate thereof
shall be filed with the County Clerk of
each county within such electoral dis
trict." In announcing his decision. Judge Gan
tenbeln said that it is apparently only
a coincidence that the electoral district
which includes Multnomah County cor
responds with the Congressional District.
"The Legislature merely undertook to
establish an electoral district coterminus
with the Congressional District. And as
candidates for the office of Railroad Com
missioner do not come under the provis
ions of section 2797, but are candidates
for an office to be filled by the electors
of an electoral district, it is the decision
of the Court that the candidate file his
petition with the County Clerk."
Hamilton filed his petition to have his
name put on the . ballot as an independent
candidate, with County Clerk Fields yes
terday, following Judge Gantenbein's de
cision. As a portion of the ballot had been
set, and a proof sheet submitted, it will
necessitate a change of all the numbers
following Hamilton's. His number is 27.
After Hamilton's name will appear the
words: "Independent. Improved facili
ties." Clyde B. Aitchison and Oglcsby
Young are the other candidates for this
office, Aitchison's name appearing first,
and Young's last.
WAXTS HER PROPERTY BACK
Suit Brought to Settle Ownership of
Two Pieces of Realty.
Robert Gossman and his wife are made
defendants in a suit filed in the Circuit
Court yesterday by Sarah Smith, a widow.
Gossman was once arrested and tried on
a charge of burglary, but was acquitted.
The present charge grows out of that
trial.
The charge against Gossman was
brought July 25, 1903. B. M. Smith was
employed as attorney for Gossman, but.
It Is alleged, the accused man never paid
the attorney his fees. Smith transferred
his claim, amounting to J140, to Henry P.
Ford and the latter brought suit to re
cover. Qn April 5, 1904, the court gave
judgment In the amount asked, with
$39.45 costs In addition. Gossman owned
two pieces of property in Multnomah
County, and these were sold by the Sher
iff at public auction to satisfy the claim.
Ford bought them and transferred the
deed to Mrs, Smith.
In her complaint Mrs. Smith says that
on December 18, 1903, Gossman sold cne
piece, in section S, township L south of
range 2 east, to Erie C. Ule, for $3500. The
other piece, in section 34, township 1,
north of range 2 east, was sold to the
same party for $2500. According to Mrs.
Smith's assertion, Gossman was not the
owner of the land at that time, and had
no right to transfer it. She asks that
the court declare her the owner of the
property.

Small Damages for Leiner..
A verdict of $150 for Charles Leiner was
awarded last night by a jury in Judge
Cleland's department of the -Circuit Court,
in the suit brought by Leiner against L.
M. Holbrook. The suit was to recover $6545
damages, on the allegation that he leased
a portion of the Holbrook block" in St. John
from Holbrook with the provision that
Leiner was to enter the building in Au
gust, 190B. He was to pay $45 a month
rental. The lease ran for two years. Lei
ner alleged that the building was not
ready for. occupancy in August, and that
he had purchased a large stock of cloth
ing and dry gortds, which became out of
date when he was not permitted to put
them on sale.
Declare Cigars Were Inferior.
In answering the . suit of Dan Marx
against them, Frank G. Arata and S. A.
Arata assert that they ordered 2500 cigars
from Rodrigo Fernandez with the un
derstanding that they were to be Key
West goods, but that when the cigars ar
rived they were found to be Xew York
goods. The Aratas say the samples were
high-class cigars while the goods re
ceived were very inferior. The defendants
say they offered to return the goods, and
even to pay the freight, but that
Fernandez would not receive them, de
manding his price. $115 a 1000 for them.
Fernandez turned over his claim to Marx
for the purposes of the suit.
No Action on Road Petition.
Nothing was done yesterday by the
County Court regarding the request of
J. R.' BowleB and others that a county
road be established through a portion of
Columbia slough. . It was-the assertion
of Bowles, when he appeared before the
court, that during high water five fam
ilies have been entirely cut off from the
outside world since the old Vancouver
trestle was abandoned. The railroad, he
said, dedicated a road to the county, but
it is of no use during high water. It is
probable that a petition for a higher road
will be submitted.

CITY VEHICLE TAX HELD UP
Cannot Be Collected Pending Appeal
of Ixng Suit.
The attorneys for George Long flled
notice in the Circuit Court yesterday that
they will appeal their case against the
City of Portland to the Supreme Court.
This Is the suit involving the applica
tion of the referendum law to city ordi
nances. Judge Gantenbein recently held
that in incorporated cities the referendum
cannot be invoked.
Pending the decision of the Supreme
Court, the city cannot collect the vehicle
tax, under the city ordinance. It was
to secure an injunction of the court to
compel the city to cease collection of
this tax until after the ordinance is voted
on at the June election that the suit was
brought by Long. Sentiment among
vehicle-owners against the new ordinance
is said to be strong.

A great many blood medicines contain Mercury, Potash, Arsenic or
some other strong mineral. These ingredients act unpleasantly and often
dangerously on the system by affecting the stomach and upsetting the diges
tion, and sometimes do great damage by eating out the delicate lining and
tissues of the body. No such results ever come from the use of S. S. S.
This great medicine enjoys the distinction of being the only guaranteed
purely vegetable blood remedy on the market. It is made entirely from the
extracts and juices of healing, cleansing roots, herbs and barks of the forests
and fields gathered under our own supervision. In the treatment of Rheu
matism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula, Skin diseases, Blood Poison,
and all blood diseases and disorders S. S. S. is a safe and efficient remedy.
It removes from the blood all impurities, humors or poisons, and safely as

For more than forty years S. S. S. has been recognized as the best Blood

To produce temporary ac
tivity of the functions In
cases of so-called weakness Is
a simple matter, hut to per
manently restore strength and
vigor is a problem that but
few physicians have solved. I
never treat for temporary ef
fects. Under my system of
treatment every bit of im
provement is a part of a per
manent cure. Though other
physicians have, through my
success in effecting perma
nent cures. b-?en convinced of
the fact that prematuieness,
loss of power, etc., are but
symptoms resulting from
chronic inflammation or con
gestion in the prostate gland,
none have as yet been able to
duplicate my cures. My sys
tem of local treatment "is the
only effective means yet
known for restoring the pros
tate to its normal state,
which always results in full
and complete return of
strength and vigor. Such a
cure is absolutely permanent,
because the condition respon
sible for the functional dis
order :s entirely removed. It
is the only kind of a cure a.
patient desires, and is tho
only kind of cure I will treat
for.
