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.

The Greatest Doctor on
Earth
Nature is the greatest doctor on
earth. 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.

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

It was decided that meetings shall be

and A. E. Gebhardt acted as secretary.
There were 25 or 30 sportsmen present,
and few declined to present their par

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

Secretary Gebhardt read several pro

TELL MEN WHY
Plain Logic
Which Explains
My Success
If I did not know to a certainty that the
service I am prepared to render is superior
to that to be had elsewhere it would be folly
for me to make the claims I do. There is no
physician in the world so skilled and capable
that exaggerated assertions will not quickly
ruin his reputation and practice. The doctor
who succeeds Is always the doctor who Is
able to do a llttie more than he tells the
people that he can do, and whose ability per
mits him to say that he can do much. The
afflicted do not ruth unthinkingly to a doctor
merely upon the strength of his statements.
They look about for evidence of his skill.
They observe the volume of his practice and
investigate his professional standing. I In
vite the most thorough investigation. The
more thorough the Investigation the more
certain is the investigator to become my
patient, and the greater will be his confi
dence in the treatment he recelvea.
My practice la the largest because I In
variably fulfill my pron&laes.
WEAKNESS
"Weakness" in all its phases and in prac
tically every case that comes to me for treat
ment' is merely a symptom resulting from a
state of chronic inl lammatlon existing in the
prostate gland. This inflammation may be a
lingering result of some contracted disease,
or mav have been brought on by early dissi
pation", overwork, etc. In by fai the greater
number of cases the general health of the pa
tiont is perfect, there being no lak of
either physical or nervous energy. No stimu
lants or tonics are needed, and if employed
would only result in temporary excitement of
the functions and positive injury to the ten
der and already disordered prostate. My
treatment is a local one entirely. It removes
all inflammation, swelling and tenderness
from the prostate gland, establishes normal
circulation throughout the parts and restores
permanently and completely . all natural
functions.
