SAYS PORTLAND 15 BEST t-OlTHERX PACIFIC CASHIER RETURN'S FROM EAST. S. A. Tnrall Talks of Conditions In Older Paris of Country and Con trasts Them With Oregon. The mnet peculiar question, as It fppmM to me. I wns asked back Kast, was whether the after-effects of the Chl caso and St. Louis Repositions on realty values followed the Lewl and Clark Ex position In Portland." said St A. Thrall, cashier of the Harrlman lines In th Northwest, yesterday afternoon. I told t'ipm." continued Mr. Thrall, "that we had no after-effects out here. Our Kjposltlon did not leave us "dead to the world.' but instead. It caused a rise tn values of .13 per cent in some Instances, arid the erection of a number of 10 and 12-story hulldines. They would not have believed me If I had not shown thera pictures of the buildings." Mr. Thrall has been a railroad man in Tortlnnd for 32 years. For 26 years he was with the Orejron & California Rail road and Its successor, the Southern Pa ciric. Since the merger of the Southern and Cnton Pacific, he has been a Har rlman agent. A month aco he went back to visit hla old home. Oswego. N. T.. which he had not seen since he left it m l7i. On the way he vloited- several rela tives, one of them a banker in a smaller New 'York city. "He wa talking polities when I en. tered his bank." said Mr. ThralL "I lairghed when I heard him say that thirjrs looked blue for Taft. I told him the country w-as against Bryan, but he would not believe me. I had come from the t. and I was not supposed to know anything. He did not know that in Th Oregonlan I had Just as good a source of news aa he had in the New York papers." .Mr. Thrall went to Oswego, where h met hl two elder brother. LJke his cousin, both were doubtful as to the re sult. "Many others also seemed to feel that way." said Mr. Thrall. "Even in New York City I met a number of men who feared Bryan's election, and their fear seemed to be centered In the results In the West. I told them this end of the country was safe, but still they appeared to be unduly apprehensive. The streets of New York afforded little ground for apprehension, however. Out of every five pictures of the two leading Presidential candidates in the windows, only one was of Bryan. And only about one man out of five talked about Bryan." Mr. Thrall returned by way of the South. In the Carollnas. he said, the drought was even greater than had been reported in the press dispatches. Wells had dried up, and some of the cotton d:d not seem to get above the brush, but atlll the growers said they would pick a good crop. In the fields he was amused at the Inquiring: attitude of the darkies. "They lived In square houses with a chimney pipe at each end. a door In the center and no windows." he said. "A dnrkey would be before the door and he would have a question to ask about something he knew nothing about. in California Mr. Thrall congratu lated himself upon his return to West ern bustle. "Kike Portland. los Angeles Is steadily growing." he said. "San Francisco picks up daily, and Is In better shape now than at any time since the fire. The West. I believe. Is more prosperous than the Kast-" A FEW DAYS MORE. Only a few days more of the directors' sale. Stocks are being reduced rapidly In all departments, regardless of whether or not we reallxe prortt.

MAYOR LANE GROWS SARCASTIC AT EXPENSE OF CONTRACTORS Suggests Putty for Cracks in Cementwork, While Commissioner Newell Recommends Adhesive Tape. MAYOR LANE announced yesterday that he has discovered a remedy for cracks In cement and concrete Work, which have made life miserable of late for contractors, city officials and pri vate citizens. It Is very simple and economical. Common, ordinary, every day putty, the Mayor says, will solve the problem, and It should be applied to the cracks before the Inspection to made by the members of the Executive Board. Simultaneously with this discovery by Mayor Lane, came another, equally as valuable. It is believed, by J. A. Newell, a member of the Executive Board. His remedy Is carefully to place strips of adhesive tape over the cracks. He Is confident that, if properly applied, this will work wonders In bringing about satls factory results. The two discoveries were made publle yesterday afternoon at a meeting of the bridge committee of the Executive Board, at which the acceptance of the Union avenue and the East Twnty-elghth-street bridges was considered. The Union-avenue structure will be accepted, but there is a crack in the concrete abutment wing of the other bridge, which brought about the caustic suggestions of the Mayor and Mr. Newell. It was at first thought by the Mayor and the members of the com mittee that the bridge was seriously im paired by the crack, but from statements by City Engineer Taylor and others com petent to Judge, it was found to be un important. The Mayor and members of the bridge committee will make an inspection of the abutment tomorrow morning, and will make a special effort to determine what, if any. material effect the crack has on the bridge. The engineers. Including Mr. Taylor, declare that It has none: that the bridge rests on th piers and that if the abutment were to be taken away alto gether It would In no wise affect the safety of the bridge. The concrete was put in to steady the big dirt nil at the end of the structure. TALKS OF BANK EMPLOYES Mills Says Courtesy and Diligence Are First Requirements. In an address latit nght before the Portland Chapter, American Institute of Bank Men, President A. I Mills, of the First National Bank, gave the qualifica tions he considered essential for a suc cessful bank employe. The qualities most to be desired, Mr. Mills declared, were courtesy and diligence. ' "In discussing a clerk's requirements you would probably say that he ought to have honesty and brains," said Mr. Milia. "That is not the case, because any man who is taken Into a bank Is as sumed to be honest and is expected to have brains enough to do his work in a satisfactory manner. The two great requirements are courtesy and. diligence. Granted, that all banks are equally sound, the bank that treats its customers with the greatest courtesy is the one that will rank first with the public. Courtesy ought to be a characteristic of every member of the staff.. The employe who can satisfy an irritable patron of the bank, without himself losing his temper is the man who is of greatest value to his employers. "A clerk ought not to be satisfied to do just his own work. By that I do not rr.e&n that h$ should let others Impose on htm; but he should learn how to do the work of the man above hini. The young man never can tell when a more responsible position will come his way." Tn round number 2.300. MK ounc of -o!d and 60,00ft. ooo ounce of ptlver ar pro duced In the United tSates each year.
