commanded higher prices than It waf
ever possible to secure for stock pro
duced In the old days before the scien
tific breeder appeared on the scene.
First Families in Stock World.
At the big show now giving dally per
formances, the farmer and stockman wilt
find all of the first families of the live
stock world represented. In the immense
horse barns will be found all classes of
equines. from the ponderous Percherons
and Clydesdales to the clean-limbed,
high-strung thoroughbreds. Rosa Bon
heur won lasting fame with her won
derful painting, "The H,orse Show," anJ
there was fire and action In her master
piece, but the horse show which Miss
Uonhour painted was not much to look at
compared with that which is now on un
der the auspices of the Pacific National
show, for hundreds of these equine stars
are on exhibition daily, the single exhibit
of one prominent breeder containing no
less than 39 magnificent animals, nearly
all of thorn prizewinners, not only In the
West, but in the best horse shows that
are held In other parts of the country.
There is grace and beauty in every move
ment of these splendid animals, and this
wonderful exhibit at the horse bams
alone is interesting enough to more than
repay one for the trip out and the price
of admission.
In the cattle barn there is herd after
" herd of the bluest blue blood to be found,
and It embraces all classes. There are
specialties In milkers and also for "beef,"
with plenty of the Intermediate classes,
in which are found points of advantage
both as milkers and for beef. There are
calves just receiving the juvenile blue
ribbon, yearllngsi 2-year-olds, and so on
up to the old stagers, some of which
have won medals, cups and ribbons at
every big stock show in the country, for
Oregon has produced world-beating cattle
in a number of classes.
Range Steer Has Passed Away.
But among all of the hundreds of
stalls there is no longer to be found
anything bearing much resemblance to
the old longhorns which in the early
days of the stock industry waxed fat
and got themselves ready for market
on the bunch grass ranges of the Pa
cific Northwest. The old range steer
like his companion the old range cow
boy has vanished from sight, and the
modern production with little bone and
muscle and plenty of beef meat, can
not run fast enough to reduce, its
weight or even afford a cowboy on foot
sufficient exercise to keep him in good
health.
Sheep and Hogs on Display.
But all of the interest in this show
does not center around cattle and
horses, and when the visitor becomes
aweary of admiring this highest priced
part of the exhibit, there can be found
in other barns, hundreds of sheep and
hogs, which, like the horses and cattle,
were also "bred in the purple." Ex
perts who have traveled the world over
in the interest of their specialty wool
and sheep declare that in no other
part of the country Is everything so
favorable for the breeding of high
class sheep as In Oregon, and the ex
hibits bear out the reputation that the
state holds. The hog department is
also of much interest at this time when
some of the largest packing houses in
the United States are arranging to
make Portland their headquarters for
the Pacific Coast. Speaking for myself
I would rather gaze admiringly on
horses than hogs, but there are others,
for I noticed a party of Juveniles
squealing with delight at "those dear
little piggies." and a husky) young
farmer who was gazing approvingly at
a mammoth "tusker" confided to the
lady on his arm that the aforesaid
tusker was "a peach of a porker."
A Journey through the miles of stalls
under the roofs of the big barns does
not complete the list of farm products
here, for after the four-footed exhibits
have passod Inspection there still re
mains the. poultry show and. like every
thing else In accordance with the ex
hibition, this Is strictly first-class, both
as to quantity and quality of the ex
hibits. Kaces l"p to Grand Circuit Form.
If the visitor to this 11,000,000 exhibit
of livestock makes a fairly early start
In the morning, the rounds of the stock
pens can be made in good time for the
racing programme, which starts at 1:30
P. M. The publio haa been pretty well
advised that records are being broken
on this wonderful track every day of
the meeting, but to understand more
fully the extremely high character of
the racing it is only necessary to com
pare the summaries of the Pacific Na
tional races with those of the races in
the same classes now being held on
the grand circuit. This ultra-select as
semblage of trotters and pacers are not
only making grand-circuit time, but
thry are making it so easily that it is
not at all Improbable that before the
end of the meet Portland may have the
record for the fastest mile ever paced
on a Pacific Coast track.
The big show is entitled to the good
patronage it received yesterday, and it
ought to have similar support for the
remainder of the week. It is deplor
able Indeed that It was so shabbily
treated Monday and Tuesday, but re
gardless of the financial outcome of
this, the Initial meeting, I know enough
f the energy, public spirit and staying
qualities of the men who have made it
such a grand success as an exhibit of
livestock, to predict with confidence
that the second annual event will be
an even greater success than the first.
The Lewis and Clark Livestock Show
gave the breeders of the Pacific North,
west an Idea of what could be accom
plished along these lines, and as a re
sult of a visit to that stock show a
Pennsylvania importer and breeder who
has one of the largest exhibits at the
Pacific National grounds, has become a
resident of Portland, investing about
1200.000 here, and making this city. In
stead of Pennsylvania, a distributing
point for the high-class stock he im
ports. Fostered and encouraged by
such exhibitions, and by the success
which has attended the breeders" auc
tion sales, which have now become a
regular feature of Portland's livestock

Portland Show Is Surprise to Judge
From Canada.
With reference to the cattle exhibit
at the National Pacific Show. Professor
W. J. Rutherford, of the Dominion Ex
periment Station. Winnipeg, who Is
acting as Judge of beef breeds of cat
tle and dual purpose cattle, saia yes
terday: The cattle show at the Paoiflc Na
tional is one of great import to the
Pacific Northwest. The breeders and
fitters in charge of the cattle are of
National and International repute and
equally so are the cattle themselves.
Oregon has made a great showing on
former occasions, but probably never
before has she turned out a finer dis
play of cattle to contest for honors
with those of her sister states Cali
fornia, Washington and Idaho. Lovers
of cattle of any class or almost any
breed may find in the stables the ani
mals of his particular choice. If he
is a dairyman, or if he Is interested in
the cows that produce milk, cream,
butter and cheese for his table, he can
feast his eyes upon a great number of
the finest specimens of the different
dairy breeds as ever came together In
the Northwest. The Jerseys and
Guernseys those family pets occupy
a prominent place In the stables. One
would have to travel far to find such
another collection of working matrons,
and the young things that are coming
on bid fair to strip the laurels from
their seniors. The Holsteins jthase
great milk producers of Holland are
represented by several herds that
would do credit to any exhibition. The
Ayrshlres the dairy cattle of old
Scotland more than make up in qual
ity what they lack in numbers. Two
herds of Brown Swiss take their places
along with the dairy breeds.
The Red Polls of Eastern England
represent a type of cattle useful for
the production of both milk and a calf
that will mature into a fairly good
beef animal and are on this account
called dual purpose cattle. Several
herds of these cattle are on exhibition
and have already been Judged.
"Of the beef breeds, the Shorthorns
far outnumber any of the others. Sev
eral noted herds are here from Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington. The
noted Glide herd contains a number of
meritorious animals. The Minor herd
has In it the celebrated bull. Golden
Goods, as well as others good enough
to show in any company. Frank
Brown, of both St. Louis and Lewis
and Clark fame, is here too, as well as
a number of others.
"Herefords of West England origin
those rustiers that have made them
selves famous on the Western ranches,
are well represented, especially by
Clagstone's well-fitted herd. Scotland,
on the east, is represented by the
"Doddles," Aberdeen Angus cattle, and
on the west by the Galloways, the
"Shaggy Blacks," noted for the produc
tion of the famous "Blue-Gray" steers
of the English market. Then there are
the Devons from Southwestern; Eng
land those beautiful blood-red cattle
with the spreading Ivory-white horns
tipped with black. Surely this is a
sight worth seeing and one that a lover
or even an admirer of good cattle can
scarcely afford to miss. Most of the
cattle have been judged, and the rib
bons won decorate the winners."

Mortgage lor Issue of Bonds.
A supplemental mortgage to secure an
Issue of bonds approximating J100.000 was
filed by the Portland Railway. Light
Power Company yesterday with County
Clerk Fields. Property of the company
upon which the mortgage is a lien ap
proximates J15.000.0u0 in value. The trans
action is a legal detail resulting from the
transfer of the various electrical prop
erties of the Portland Railway Company

Interest in the great livestock show and
race meet of the Pacific National show
received a decided Impetus yesterday
and an immense crowd gathered to wit
ness the various events. Stock judging
continued throughout the day, and hun
dreds of persons visited the barns where
the premier stock of the West is on exhi
bition. Exceptionally interesting events were
offered yesterday, but the programme for
the remainder of the week includes the
best attractions of the meet. A repre
sentative of the Salem commercial bodies
called upon the managers of the Pacific
National show yesterday and ' imparted
the information that Salem buslnses men.
1000 strong, would visit the show tomor
row. The sale of horses begins this morning
at 9 o'clock. The Judging will be con
cluded today and lists of winners In the
various classes will immediately be an
nounced. Portland established a National repu
tation for high-class offerings and for
fancy prices at the last combination live
stock sale held here, in the Spring, but
will, this morning and tomorrow morn
ing, endeavor to add greater claim to
eminence as a livestock emporium, in
the Harvest combination sale, which is
to be conducted by Colonel R. L. Harrl
man, starting judge in the Country Club
harness races. The entries in this sale,
which includes only catalogued stock,
consist of more than 100 head of draft
and trotting bred horses and pure-bred
cattle. Judges who have made the

farmers and small breeders of the Pa
cific Northwest have never had a finer
opportunity for replenishing their sta
bles and herds than will be given them
at the Country Club today and tomor
row. Much of the . stuff offered Is of
blue-ribbon and championship classes,
both at the State Fair and the Pacific
National show here.
Among the offerings will be College
Maid, the wonderful "guldeless pacer."
who has twice lowered her record on the
local track, other high-class harness
horses and roadsters consigned by Kus-ter-Brwtn.
Dr. A. DeFoe, I. D. Chap
pelle, E. C. Kent, W. T. McBrlde and
other breeders. The Glen Gordon Clydes
dales, Ptallions and mares, will also be
disposed of, as will the Asburner herd
of milking strain shorthorns, W. O.
Minor's shorthorns and some of the best
selected stock of Herefords on the Coast.
It was announced yesterday that the
management of the National Pacific
Show had extended Invitations to the
teachers and pupils of all the public
schools !n the city to attend the show
Friday. They will be admitted free
of charge, and it is believed that the
display of stock will be of educational
value to the students.
There will be a great parade of
prize-winning animals at 1 o'clock to
morrow afternoon. All the animals
that have won prizes will be paraded
before the grandstand, and a more val
uable collection of blooded animals
has never been gathered on the Pa
cific Coast.
In the racing events yesterday, Col
lege Maid, the guldeless pacer, low

PUPILS CROWD SCHOOLS
Grants Pass New Building Is Found
Inadequate.
GRANTS PASS. Or., Sept. 3. (Spe
cial.) The schools of this city are be
coming overcrowded and the directors
will have to make some arrangements
or outside rooms.
Last year relief was given through
the erection of the Riverside school,
consisting of eight rooms. This extra
building was deemed sufficient for sev
eral 'years, but owing to the steady
increase in population all buildings are
now overflowing. Last year at the end
of the first week of school the regis
tration was 692 pupils, this year at the
same time it is 740. These figures will
be greatly increased as soon as the
families that are temporarily absent
return to town.
In the high school the condition Is
worse than in the lower grades. En
rollment at the present time is 106

GRAVES WILL IDT COME
IXDEPENDEXCE PARTY RAMjY
IS CALLED OFF.
Candidate for Vice-President, How
ever, May Be In Portland Later
on During Campaign.
John Temple Graves, nominee for Vice
President on the Independence party
ticket, will not deliver an address in
Portland Saturday night, as planned.
Yesterday the local headquarters of the
party was advised from San Francisco
that It would be impossible for Mr.
Graves to reach Portland In time to fill
his appointment. The Independence party
people here, however, expect to arrange
for another meeting later in the cam
paign, as soon as It can be learned when
Mr. Graves can be here.
"Nothing nas been heard at Independ
ence party headquarters here to indicate
that Thomas L. Hisgen and William Ran
dolph Hearst will not fill their engage
ment here October 12. The local com
mittee is continuing its arrangements for
the proper reception and entertainment of
their Presidential nominee and the
founder of the party when they arrive.
Members of the party here do not think
Mr. Hearst will permit his candidacy for
the Independence party nomination for
Governor of New York to interfere with
the tour of the Western States he has
planned.
Paullnus McDonald, who !s In ehargo
of the Independence party headquarters
in Portland, is in Seattle, where he I; as
sisting the members of the new party
to complete an organization. Later m
the month it is proposed to hold a state
convention in Washington, when nomi
nees for Presidential electors will be se
lected. PARTY WORKERS OX PLATFORM
Committeemen Recognized in Plans
for Gore Rally.
If any particular honor is attached to
the formality of occupying a seat on the
speakers' platform during a political
rally, that honor at the Democratic rally
to be held at the Armory Friday night
will be shared by the active workers
from the ranks of the party organization
in Multnomah County. Chairman George
H. Thomas has decreed that when Sena
tor Gore, of Oklahoma, delivers his ad
dress here Friday night, the seats on the
platform will be reserved for the pre
cinct committeemen of the county, the
party's Presidential electors, the delegates
to the Denver convention and the mem
bers of the reception committee, of which
Governor Chamberlain Is chairman.
"It is the precinct committeemen in this
county who are raising and providing the
necessary funds for carrying on the cam
paign," said Mr. Thomas yesterday, "and
I have decided that if any recognition is
to be shown at the rally Friday night
the men who are doing this Important
work are the ones entitled to seats on the
platform. Every one of these precinct
committeemen has circulated a subscrip
tion paper in his precinct and it is only
with these funds that the County Central
Committee is enabled to conduct the vig
orous campaign that Is being carried on."
The Democratic organization in this
county, through the precinct committee
men, is also taking an active hand in
encouraging the registration of voters
that failed to register for the June elec
tion. It is true the party is not bestir
ring Itself very actively In the way of
persuading dilatory Republican voters to
qualify as electors in the Presidential
election, but each committeeman under
Instructions from the County Chairman is
seeing to it that every Democrat and
doubtful voter in his precinct is register
ing for the November election.
WANTS " BORAH NEXT MONTH
McArthur Requests Idaho Senator to
Speak October 20. '
Secretary McArthur, of the Republican
State Central Committee, yesterday tele
graphed the National committee request
ing that United States Senator W. E.
Borah, of Idaho, be assigned to Portland
for a political address Tuesday, October
20. At the same time he telegraphed
Senator Borah urging the Idaho Senator
to consent to deliver an address in this
city on that date.
There is a big demand from all sections
of the state for campaign speakers and
the executive committee is now arranging
the itineraries of the various Republicans
who have volunteered their services-. A
schedule of these itineraries will be pub
lished as soon as the dates can be ar
ranged. '
Practically all of the literature and cam
paign buttons on hand were forwarded
yesterday from Republican headquarters
in the Chamber of Commerce building to
the chairmen of the different county
central committees. At the same time
Secretary McArthur provided for replen
ishing the stock by telegraphing to the
National committee and requesting 40.000
additional pieces of literature and 25,000.
Taft and Sherman campaign buttons.
Republicans from Yamhill, Umatilla and
Wallowa Counties called at headquarters
yesterday and reported that conditions in
their respective counties were encourag
ing and indicated that the full party vote
In each county would be polled for the
party's nominees. During the day several
letters from other counties In the state
were received, all carrying the same en
couraging message.
RUNS ON FINANCIAL ROCKS
Germany Must Raise More Taxes to
Avoid Big Deficit.
BERLIN. Sept. 23. The critical financial
position of the empire, with the suggested
remedies, which will occupy virtually the
whole approaching session of the Reich
stag, is the subject of an article by Herr
Reinhold Sydow, secretary of the imperial
treasury, which will appear in the
Deutsche Rundschau on September 25.
All parties are convinced of the
necessity of abolishing the system
of borrowing in order to carry out the
government of the empire. The task Is to
equalize the revenue and expenditure;
even with economics in all departments,
yet In the next five years the deficit in
the revenues as calculated might reach
a total of $556,000,000. The government pro
posed to avert this, however, continues
the minister, by increasing the taxatioD
on luxuries, especially spirits, beer, tobac
co, champagne and bottled wines, while
universal succession duties will -be intro
duced, leaving small fortunes of from $2500
to $5000 untaxed. In the event of a person
dying without testamentary disposition,
the state Is to become heir in place of dis
tant relatives who have no claim.
The 'poll tax from federal states for
imperial purposes also will be augmented.
The minister concludes as follows:
"The regulation of the imperial finances
is a question of life or death for the em
pire and the federal states."
Petty Larcenist Released From Jail.
ALBANY, Or., Sept. 23. (Special.)
The trip of B. Coombs from Illinois to
Oregon to secure a pardon for his ne
phew, Harry Coombs, terminated suc
cessfully today when the young man
was released from the Linn County
jail, where he was serving a sentence
of 90 days. Coombs stole a suitcase
from a baggage truck at the Southern
Pacific depot on the night of August
28, and the next day pleaded guilty and
was placed in the county jail.

This food is quickly absorbed by children as well as

Nature has placed phosphate of potash in a certain
part of these grains for man's use in building the gray
substance of brain and nerve cells.
Adults require this to repair natural waste from men

There's a
Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle
Saloon Owners Agree That the Pro
hibitory Law Should Prevail on
First Day of Week Amora
All Dispensers of Good.
Ruin confronts several score of small
dealers In fruits, candles, flowers, tobacco
and like sundries as a result of District
Attorney Cameron's sweeping order that
all places of business not especially ex
empted by law must remain closed on
Sunday hereafter. With fully 100 of the
dealers affected by this order, Sunday has
been the one particular day of the week
that piled up profits and kept business
brisk. On that day they have been re
lieved from competition with the larger
stores, have been brought Into direct
contact with the Sunday crowds, and
have been able to carry out a profitable
existence In the line of petty trade.
"Well, if the saloons are closed on Sun
day, it Is only right to shut down on
these other fellows," say the saloon men.
Which is quite generally regarded as
being the keynote of the present situa
tion. That the saloon Interests have been
working for this extreme enforcement of
law in order to profit by a possible reac
tionary sentiment is quite generally be
lieved. Whether or not Mr. Cameron got
his inspiration from that source does not
appear, and his friends deny that such is
the case.
Portland imbibers have long since
grown used to the practice of buying
their Sunday liquor on Saturday night.
In time the populace may grow thought
ful enough to lay In its supply of grapes,
cigars, ice cream, confections and period
icals. But, aside from the loss to strug
gling small dealers, the publio at large
Is bound to suffer much inconvenience
from the closing order. Drinking foun
tains do not happen to abound in Port
land, and the thirsty pedestrian will no
longer find himself able to get some re
freshing beverage from the harmless Ice
cream parlor. He will be compelled to
master his tuirst until arrival home.
Closing of poolrooms, of course, is a
matter which is arousing no resentment
from conservative sources. These places
have not the public sympathy, and it Is
quite generally agreed that they should
be kept shut.
It Is known that a number of small
dealers in .confections, refreshments and
tobacco have been advised to resist the
closing order. Organisation for this pur
pose has not yet been effected, but may
be. At least, it Is not likely that there
will be a general observance of the law
; next Sunday, or until the dealers af
fected are shown that the District Attor
ney's order means business and that of
fenders will be handled with an iron
hand.
MURDERED BY YAQUI BAND
Son of Mexican Banker Waylaid in
Suburbs of City.
NO GALES, Aris., Sept. 23. Particu
lars have just been received of a kill
ing by Yaquls In a suburb of Hermo
eillo, Mexico. Rafael J. Ruiz, son of a
prominent banker, with Francisco Mo
rales, a brother of Don Arturo Mo-,
rales. Mayor of Guaymas, was return
ing from Santa Margarita ranch in a
carriage. When they were within two
leagues of the ranch and about an
equal distance from 'the city, Yaquls
fired a volley from ambush. The men
jumped out and Morales and the driver
ran for assistance.
Returning they found Ruiz still alive,
but he died while being taken to Her
mosillo. He was wounded by the first
volley, and was shot twice afterward
with his own pistol by the Yaquls, who
made their escape.
