CARRIES 200,000 BUSHELS
xt Month Promises to Keep Pace
With the Fine Records for For
eign Kxports- of September
and October.
Owing to the fact that (train shipments
foreign were, so heavy for the months of
September and October. there was an im
pression In shipping; circles that Novem
ber would bring a lull. The arrival of the
Bankfields. tlie British steamship that
ranie around from Valparaiso, has placed
a different face on the subject, however,
for this ves-l. under charter to Balfour,
Out brie Co.. will be the first November
team carrier to fret away.

o bushels, which will make a good start
for the coming- month. Today the French
shrp I-a Rochejaquelln will finish cargo
at the elevator for the Portland h louring
Mills Company and will proceed to the
I'nlted Kingdom for orders. She carries
about !. bushels. The Britisher,
"VVynnstay. will probably be the next ves
sel out and will take something; like 90.000
bushels.
The Bankfields Is the only empty steam
carrier in Ihf harbor at the present time,
and will get a berth In a few days and be
given early attention, the probability being-
that she will sail soon after the first

C1PS TAKE ACTION
Woodmen Pass Resolutions
Censuring Editor.
DECRY POLITICAL ARTICLE
Think Official Organ Should Not Be
Cscd to Further Interests of Cau
didacy as Was Done in Cur
rent "Pacific AVoodman."
Representatives of the nine Woodmen
camps of this city, with a combined
membership of 5000, met and Instructed
a committee to draft resolutions pro
testing against the action of Editor M.
T. Moses, in formally indorsing in the
Pacific Woodman the candidacy of
Bryan. Sentiment at the meeting even
favored recommending that Moses he
ousted from the editorship of the offi
cial organ of the order for his partisan
utterances in a purely faternal publica
tion. Resolutions will be prepared in a
few days and forwarded to I. I. Boak.
head consul of the order at Denver, and
to Editor Moses as well.
The. attempt of Editor Moses to par
ticipate In politics through the columns
of the lodge paper was the subject of
an animated discussion Monday night,
when representatives of the nine Wood
men lodges in this city assembled to
outline a membership campaign. A. Ij.
Barbur was made - chairman of the
meeting and Thomas J. Hammer sec
retary. " Included among1 those present were
both Republicans and Democrats, but
they all were a unit In condemning the
action of Editor Moses. It was main
tained unanimously that the Woodman
Is a strictly fraternal publication, de
voted to the best interests of the or
ganization, and they resented emphatic
ally any attempt on the part of any
one to Introduce the discussion of po
litical subjects into its contents.
"The sentiment at the meeting was
unanimously against Editor Moses, and
several favored recommending his re
moval as editor of the Woodman," said
Mr. Barbur yesterday. Mr. Hammer is
a Iemocrat. and acted as secretary of
the committee meeting Monday night.
"Republicans and Democrats alike." he
said, "were agreed in condemning the
publication of such a partisan expres
sion in their lodge paper The Wood
man is published at the expense of the
organization, and the fund from which
that expense is paid is contributed to
alike by Republican and Democratic
members of. the order. It always has
been the purpose of the board of man
agers having charge of the publication
to prevent a dlscuslon of religious and
political subjects in its columns, and
the action of Editor Moses was clearly
in violation of the established policy of
the paper."

LARGE CROWD AT TAFT RALLY
T. 3. Cleeton Addresses Enthusiastic
Audience at Snnjiyslde. ,
Republicans of Sunnyslde resent the
story printed In an afternoon paper
that the rally held there Monday night,
at which United States Senator Charles
W. Fulton was to have spoken, but was
prevented because of lljness, was a
"frost." When -it was' discovered that
Senator Fulton would be unable to ad
dress the Republicans. T. J. Cleeton
was pressed into service late In the
afternoon.
The hall where the meeting was held
was crowded with eager voters and
while there was some disappointment
because Senator Fulton could not ap
pear, the address by Mr. Cleeton was
listened to with much Interest. Between
1000 and 1500 people were present.
Mr. Cleeton attacked the Democratic
doctrines with vigor and was frequent
ly interrupted by outbursts of applause.
The speaker showed that the Republi
can party had been a friend of the la
boring man and gave many reasons
why Mr. Taft should be elected.
DECLARES TAFT IS GAINING
H. S. Rone Says Bryan Is Feared In
East.
H. S. Rowe. local agent for the Chi
cago. Mllwaukie & St. Paul Railroad,
returned Monday with his family from
the East where they had been for the
past four weeks. Mr. Rowe says that
while Bryan draws big crowds to all
his meetings, the trend Is toward Taft,
whose strength he says, is Increasing.
Mr. Rowe says that there Is great
curiosity to, hear Bryan speak and Re
publicans in large numbers attend his
meetings.
Mr. Rowe visited a number of cities
and wherever he went found a marked
distrust of Bryan. He reported that
there is widespread fear that if the
Nebraskan should be elected It will
have disastrous effect upon all in
dustries of the country; that money
will go into hiding and investment of
capital In manufacturing establish
ments will stop. On the other hand,
Mr. Rowe says that the election of Taft
will mean continued prosperity of the
country for the reason the people have
confidence that he will continue the
Roosevelt policies.
TAFT AND SHERMAN PICTURES
Supply of Lithographs to Be Had at
Republican Headquarters.-
Another supply of Taft and Sherman
lithographs has been received at Re
publican headquarters in the Chamber
of Commerce building by Secretary Mc-
Arthur, who invites all Republicans
desirous of procuring pictures of the
1 nartv's nominee to call at headquarters

rangements have been made by which j
Kepublican headquarters will oe Kept
open every night until election day.
Judge S. A. Lowell, who was In the
olty yesterday following a tour of Wil
lamette Valley and Western Oregon
points, reported good attendance at his
meetings and alively Interest in the
discussion of the political Issues.
Three big out-of-the-city rallies;
have been planned by Secretary Mc -
Arthur for next saturaay msni, me i .
concluding night of the campaign. (
Wallace McCamant has been assignees
to Eugene. HenryvM. McKlnney will
speak at Hood River, while Congress-
man W. R. Ellis probably will address
an Audience the same night at Hills-
boro. Hon. M. C. George also has been
secured, for three addresses this week,
his appointments being as follows: Oc
tober 28; Philomath: October 29, Cot
tage Grove; October 30. Grants Pass.
DECLARES NEW YORK IS SAFE
Easterner, However, Thinks Bryan
Has Won Many Votes.
"If Bryan should spend the rest of the
campaign in New York, he would have
very good chances of carrying the state,"
said J. D. Bailie, a guest at the Xortonia
yesterday, "for throughout that state the
people are very impressionistic. But I
see by the papers that he leaves there
Thursday and this will give the voters a
chance to recover, from his oratory. I
have had some, experience in New Tork
State politics and I must say that I don't
believe there is a state in the Union that
Is more difficult to keep In line A
speaker with any kind of force at all can
influence many thousand voters and with
Bryan's well-known ability in this line,
his invasion of the state just at this time
is dangerous to the Republican cause.
"I left New York two seeks ago and I
was surprised while on my way here, to
learn that there Is any great doubt about
Tuft carrying 'the state. I have felt no
concern about this and. admitting that
Bryan has made many votes by his
whirlwind campaign, I am thoroughly
convinced that Taft will carry the state
by a comfortable majority and that
Hughes will again be elected."
TAFT TO CARRY MINNESOTA
Well-informed Traveling Man
Writes of Political Condition.
R. V. Browinski, a traveling man
from Louisville, who Is a friend of
Editor Henry Watterson, has written
local friends of his impressions as to
the prospects of the two leading Presi
dential candidates. Browinski travels
all over the country and is regarded as
one of the most conservative and best
informed traveling men on the road.
From Minneapolis he wrote that
Taft would carry the state of Minne
sota, so far as indications in Minne
apolis and St. Paul were concerned.
"However, Taft will carry the state by
a greatly reduced majority, and it
means that Jacobsen will run Johnson
a very close race." he wrote.
"The way Wall street and the gam
blers are acting it looks very much as
though Taft would have a walk-over,"
he also wrote.
Taft and Sherman Club at Lents.
Republican voters of Lents have or
ganized a Taft and Sherman Club,
which will hold a number of meetings
prior to the election next Tuesday.

JOKE ON WIFE IS COSTLY
Man Who Built Fire Vnder Chair
Gets 30 Days on Chaingang.
SEATTLE, "Wash., Oct. 27. Special. )
Because a man's wife is a mollusc is no
reason why he has a right to stir her
into action by means of a bonfire of
newspapers, according- to the decision of
Police Judge John B. Gordon. A mollusc,
as defined in one of the latest theatrical
successes. Is a woman in perfect health
who has a complete disinclination for
physical exertion. That's what Marcus
Hanson told the court was the matter
with his wife.
Hanson was arrested for building a
bonfire of newspapers under his wife's
chair and thrusting a blazing paper into
her face. He explained to the court that
lie did it partly for a joke and partly
to "wake her up." He explained that
his wife would He abed when he arose
to go to work in the morning; that he
would find her still In bed when he came
home for lunch, and in the same place
when he returned for dinner In the eve
ning. He wanted to see her step lively,
he said.
"You may think you are a joker," said
the judge, '"but I think your sense of
humor is depraved. I'll fine you $100 and
sentence you to serve 30 days on the
chain gang. Xext case."

Amount Above Old Rates to Be
Refunded to Shippers.
0R)ER FROM COMMISSION
!
, Difference
Between Tariffs ' Paid
Vnder Advanced Schedule and
Old Itates to Be Given Back
to Lumber Shippers.
Traffic offices of the railroads center
ing In Portland are In receipt of ati or
der from the Interstate Commerce Com
mission directing how reparation shall
be made to lumber shippers who are en
titled to rebates on freight bills because
of the Commission's decision on the rate
cases practically restoring the old rates.
The shippers are now to pay- freight
rates in accordance with the decision,
whereas for a time they paid the ad
vanced rates demanded by the carriers.
The report of the original order of the
Commission In its June decision explains
as follows:
While permitting some rates to be in
creased, this adjustment also reduces some
rates below what they were immediately
prior to the increase com pained of. We
think that complainants are entitled to
reparation only on account of shipments
upon which charges were collected In ex
cess of rates between the same points
which were in effect October 31, 1007; that
In instances in which, rates ht-rein pre
scribed are not lower than rates which
were in effect between the same points on
October 31, 1007, such reparation should
be measured by the difference between the
rates actually paid and those herein pre
scribed: and that, in instances in which
the rates herein prescribed are lower than
the rates in effect between the same points
on October' 31, 1907. such reparation should
be measured by the difference between the
rates actually paid and those which were
in effect between the same points on Oc
tober 31. 1907.
The order just received refers to the
Eastern lumber rate cases only, r-uni-bered
on the Commission's docket 132,
1327 and 1335. The order follows:
That each claim ' for reparation there
under shall be presented to the defendant
carrier 'that accepted the shipment at point
of origin -of same. If claim is shown by
the records to be Justly due under the rule
laid down in the report of the Commission
in these cases, such carrier may pay same
without further order from the Commis
sion. Each defendant carrier that adjusts
claim or claims for . reparation hereunder
shall, on, or before March 10, 11(00, flle
with the Commission a detailed report of
all payments so made prior to March 1,
1900. and shall also, on or before June 10,
1000, flle a like report of all payments so
made between March 1, 1000, and May 31,
1009, both Inclusive, and shall also file like
report every three moi-ths thereafter until

CLEVER ADVERTISING SCHEME
William McMurray Devises "Coni-
m unity Cases" to Be Sent Out.
Illiam McMurray, general passenger
agent for the Harriman lines in the Pa
cific Xorth west, has devised a scheme
that he is thinking of patenting. He is
the father of the idea and is as proud
of it as a young parent of his first born.
His plan is to furnish what he calls
"community cases to prominent news
papers and publicity workers through
out the country, where they will do effec
tive advertising for the sections to be
exploited. -
These cases include all the publications
of the Sunset Publicity Bureau, a de
partment of the' Harriman fa.ssenger de
partment under the management of Wil
liam Bittle Wells. The various com
munity books got out by the local com
mercial bodies of Oregon, in co-operation
with the Sunset Bureau, will fill these
cases and as more booklets are issued
they will be added. The convenience of
the scheme commends it, for when infor
mation Is wanted about any city of Ore
gon, all the inquirer has to do is to
turn to the community case and dig out
the boklet wanted. Mr. McMurray is
distributing the cases where they will do
the most good. - . . - - -

MEN
"trial-horse "
for any doctor
Consult Me First
Even though your case may be one that some
other doctor is able to cure, and though his cure
be absolutely thorough and permanent, there is
yet good cause for your coming to me for treat
ment. The service I render is entirely unlike ad
better than the ordinary. I have devised new
and scientific methods of treating men's diseases
in all their phases. I cure cases that others can
not cure, and cases that others can cure I cure in
less time and without pain or possibility of In
jury. AU my forms of treatment have, been per
fected along the lines of nature's requirements
and are In exact harmony with the natural re
cuperative forces. Therefore, my cures are
painless, prompt and thorough.
Sl.O
My Fee For a
CURE Is Only
I Will Wait For My Fee Until I Care You
CONTRACTED DISORDERS
The serious results that may follow neglect
of diseases could scarcely be exaggerated.
Safety demands an absolutely thorough cure
in the least possible time. I have treated
more cases of these disorders than any other
physician upon the Pacific Coast. My cures
are thorough and are accomplished in less
time than other forms of treatment require
in producing even doubtful results. I em
ploy remedies of my own devising, and my
treatment is equally effective in both recent
and chronic cases.
I TREAT MEN ONLY
The vast multitude of men who have taken
my treatment have not been disappointed.
They know that I do not promise more than
I perform. To them I have actually Illus
trated in the cure of their own cases the
truth of what I claim, namely, that my treat
ment Is as certain to cure as it is that my
patient engages my services and follows my
directions. My success Is due not alone to
education, experience, sitill and scientific
equipment, but to the fact that I limit my study
and practice strictly to diseases and weak
nesses of men. To male maladies alone I have
earnestlv and exclusively devoted 25 years
of my life, and on tiiem all my faculties are
concentrated. - - .
EXAMINATION FREE
I offer not only FREE consuKatlon and advice, but of every case that
comes to me I will make a careful examination and diagnosis without
charge. No ailing man should neglect this opportunity to get expert
opinion about his trouble.
If you cannot call, write for Diagnosis Chart. My offices are open
all .day from 9 A. M. to P. M., and Sundays from 10 to 1.

Advice Free
Do you stop to think what expert means t
This is not used as a catch phrase, it means liter
ally expert advice. Years of experience and spe
cial study devoted exclusively to the sensitive
and delicate centers, makes it possible for me to
qualify before any court; in the world as an ex
pert in diseases of men. ' If you need advice
YOU NEED GOOD ADVICE
and It Is better to get it in the beginning than in the end action
after it is tso late is like rain after harvesl. Keep your youth as long
as possible, there is plenty of time to grow old.
A good marksman is not known by his bullets but bv his aim, and
a good doctor should not be known so much by his claims as by the
results he is able to show. The hen that cackles loudest does not al
ways lay the most. eggs. Think these points over.
WHEN' LOOKING
Frequently an office is advertised in the 'first person" when no such
doctor lives in the state. If deception is attempted on this point look
for it clear dowp the line.
If you are not physically sound you ought to be, and It is better to
do your duty in this respect than to wish it was done.
Wo have the largest and most complete offices and equipment in
the state, have been longer established, and furnish best bank and
personal references. We treat people Just as we would want them to
treat us under similar circumstances and handle their cases on terms to
best suit their convenience. A patient desiring treatment can pay cash
and get discount or in payments to suit circumstances, and as the
benefit Is plainly apparent or, if desired,
CAN PAY WHEN CURED
Our entire time and practice are devoted to the cure of BLOOD
POISON, VARICOCELE, STRICTURE, LOST VITALITY, HYDRO

examination blank many cases cured at home.

If other physicians
