SPEGIAL LOW RATE FOR SEATTLE FAIR Fifty-Dollar Round-Trip From Missouri River Points to Include Portland. WILL STIMULATE TRAVEL Tarirr Almost as Low as That Dur ing Lewis and Clark Centennial. Will Be in Effect From May to September. Special rates will be made for the Alaska-Tukon-Paciflc exposition by the transcontinental railroads from the East to the Pacific Northwest. Although the fair will be held at Seattle, the same low round-trip rates will be made to Port land. The Transcontinental Passenger Association, now in session In Chicago, decided yesterday to grant a ioO round trip rate to Portland. Seattle and Ta coma all next Summer on account of the lyfl exposition. William McMurray, general passenger agent for the Harriman lines In the Pa cific Northwest, received a telegram yes terday from John M. Scott, assistant general passenger agent, who is in at tendance at the meeting, advising that the association decided yesterday to grant the $50 exposition rate. The low round-trip rate will apply from Missouri River points and St. Paul and Minneapolis. It will be in effect from May 25 to September 30, next year, and the final return limit for the tickets will be October 31. 1909. The rate is such that It Is bound to prove a strong incentive to Eastern people to make the trip to the Pacific Northwest next year. "I feel that the rate is all that could have been expected, in view of the un willingness of the railroads to grant a low fare this year." said Mr. McMurray. "It seems to me to be a concession on the part of the passenger officials and I am sure it will accomplish much for this section of the country. "This rate will take care of the conven tions to meet in Portland next year in a satisfactory way. Besides, it will mean much for the Rose Festival of next year, as the rate will be attractive to thousands of Eastern people who will want to at tend. The Baptists, grocers - and other conventions to meet here during next Summer will be pleased with the low rate just made. "Rural mall carriers, too. will be pro vided for by this low rate if they decide to hold their next convention In Portland. They are now In session in Omaha and may decide to hold the next session here as a strong campaign is being made to bring them here." Rates to the Pacific Northwest on ac count of the exposition from Chicago and other Eastern points have not yet been decided, but will be fixed within a short time by the Western Passenger Associa tion. The rate just granted Is not quite so low as was made for the Lewis end Clark fair, when a tariff of $45 for the round trip from Missouri River points was granted by the railways. In view of the 2-cent passenger rate laws in many states and the disposition of the railroads to maintain higher rates, the 50 rate is con sidered generous. CLERGY MAY LOSE LOW RATE Transcontinental Railroads May Do Away With Half Fare. Transcontinental railroads may cut off the half rate now granted to clergymen and missionaries. This subject is now being considered at the Chicago meetia!; of the Transcontinental Passenger asso ciation, and it Is considered probable that this action will be taken. How ever, It will be thoroughly discussed by the passenger officials of the various Western railroads. States which have passed 2-cent fare laws during the past two years have already been punished by the railroads to the extent that the former half fare provision for ministers has been denied by the railroads, and It is now the In- j tentlon of some of the roads to make ; the rule general throughout the country, j The matter will probably be settled this week in Chicago.

When she can't cure it is be cause she needs aid. Now, most people have an idea that this aid is drugs, ana wnen tney get sick or suffer from pain of any kind they proceed to dope their stomachs with the stuff that is sold for medicine. That doesn't help any; In fact, it docs a threat deal of harm. The dope that you put Into your stom ach is poison, and poison weakens the organs and nerves of your body. What Nature needs is elec tricity. When your stom ach, kidneys, liver or digestive organs get out or oraer. it is because they lack the neces sary electricity to enable them to perform their regular functions. The breaking down of one of these org ans nearlv alwavs cjusea'other trouble. Natuiu can't cure then, because your body hasn't enough electricity to do the work, so you must assist Nature by restoring this electricity where it is needed. My Electro-Vigor does this while you sleep. It saturates the nerves with Its glowing power, and these conduct the force to every organ and tissue of your body, restoring health and giving strength to every part that is weak. Electro-Vigor Is a relief from the old system of drugging. It does by natural means what you expect drugs to do by unnatural means. It remoes the cause tf disease, and after the cause has been removed Nature will do the rest. Electro-Vigor Is not an electric belt. It is a dry cell body battery, and makes its own power. J M C WOULD STOP FILLS Counciiman Wills Opposes the Enforcement of Penalty. SAYS MAYOR'S PLAN WRONG Would Cause Future Contracts to Be Made at Much Higher Figure, Since Expensive Plant Is Required for Work. ' "Enforcement of the penalty on the company making fills on the East Side will result in stopping further fills -- I there will be irreparable damage to Central Portland, where these fills are under way." declared Councilman Wills yesterday in speaking of the atitude of Mayor Lane. t He declared that the prospects of stopping the filling of the ravines and the sloughs on the East Side is a most serious question, and should receive the consideration o the people in that part of the city. "Mayor Lane preteds that it is n ces sarjj to impose the penalty on the company which has expended $144,000 in preparing to go ahead with the work." said Mr. Wills, "to protect the smaller contractors. Any candid, prac tical man knows that a small contract or could not have made the fills as far as completed in the ordinary way of dumping dirt from the basement of buildings in 25 years, or longer. They simply couldn't have made a fraction of the fills that have been made, and East Portland would still be a place of sloughs and dilapidated elevated road wavs. To enforce the penalty means that it will take off the profit, with the result that In future contracts, if any are made, it will cost the property owners double what they are now pay ing to get rid of the sloughs. "I don't believe that the Mayor can find an executive board that will sup port him in enforcing the penalty on the old contracts. Public opinion will not sustain any attempt that stops the fills on the "East Side, and I don't be lieve the Mayor will get together an f xecutive board that will back him up n such a proposition. It Is a serious matter and I think that the push clubs ought to take It up. The stopping of future fills, when the work is now well under way, would be a great calamity. In future contracts I should say enforce the penalty." The contracts held by the Pacific Bridge Company are as follows: East Morrison street, between East Seventh .and East Ninth; East Washington, be tween East Sixth and East Eighth; East Sixth, between East Washington and East Oak streets; East Eighth, be tween Belmont and East Washington; East Ninth, between Taggart an! Di vision; besides some recent contracts on streets between Union avenue and East Water street, and Belmont street and Hawthorne avenue. The streets that have been filled by dump wagons are: Belmont, East Alder now being completed. East Oak. part of East Stark, Vancouver avenue, and the work has been somewhat slow. SPORTSMEX WOULD PROTECT ELK AXD PHEASANT. Association Decides to Meet Monthly and Consider Bills for Sub mission to Legislature. Various laws for the protection of the fish and game of the state were dis cussed last night at a meeting of the Oregon Fish and Game Association, In the hall of the Chamber of Commerce". It was decided that meetings shall be held monthly until the coming session of the Legislature In January. Dr. Ney Churchman, president of the association, presided at the meeting, and A. E. Gebhardt acted as secretary. There were 25 or 30 sportsmen present, and few declined to present their par ticular grievance or views. There were numerous discussions, and Dr. Church man took occasion to protest against property-owners being compelled to pay taxes to stock the rivers and streams with fish which were con sumed and exterminated by the gigan tic fish-wheels and nets that are oper ated on the Columbia. Secretary Gebhardt read several pro posed laws that have been drafted and will be presented to the Legislature.

It was shown that elk are being rapidly ex terminated, and that their slaughter is frequent in those parts of the state where they may be found. The scarcity of Chinese pheasants was also an interesting subject for dis cussion. A majority of those present agreed that the scarcity this season is due largely to the fact that last Spring was unusually wet, causing the death of many of the young birds, and the Summer , unusually dry. causing the dogs great difficulty in finding them. The small boy on the farm also was held partly responsible for the scarcity, for it was agreed that he ha made himself very proficient with a gun and rarely waits until the opening of the season to slay the birds.
