HELP OFTEN BADLY USED Audience Cries "Xo" When Speaker .Sajs Boys Who Leave Farm Are 'o Good Commission. Leaves for Sjiokane. Af:er holding a hearing in the com mercial Club duditorlum yesterday fore noon, the Commlwion on Country Life, appointed by President Rooseveu, ended its tensions here at lunchtime yesterday. The afternoon was spent In viewing the city from automobiles and the members If ft the city last night for Spokane, ivliere a hearing will be 'held today. Yesterday's session- at the Commer cial Club followed up the questions re garding farm life started Wednesday by The commission- The conditions of the hired man and other farm help were in vestigated and Information sought on ways of brightening rural life in all lines throughout the state. William Schulmerich, a dairyman cf Washington County, raised a storm f protest from the audience when he said that the undesirable farm boys were the ones to flock to the city, where they worked for a wage barely sufficient to keep body and soul together and spent their spare time In saloons and thea ters. He said the farm was well Yid uf such people. "Xo, no." cried several of the audience and several came to the defense of the hoy who leaves the farm and makes his way in the city. "If the majority of the farmers would treat their hired man like one of the family," said Mr. Schulmerich. "he would do good service. But if you treat a man like a dog, he acts like, a do: Another thing: If we can equalize the wages paid in the city and country, the movement of people would be from the city to the country Instead of the other way, as at present. Milk of SS Cows Brings $3696. Mr. Schulmerich contended that the most competent hired man to be bad in the Willamette Valley are foreigners. In his own experience, although he pays J JO a month and board for a hired man, he has found that foreigners make the Lest trained farm labor. The speaker said he kept 3:: cows last year and sold their milk for $3696. Startling to most of those present was the statement of A. I. Mason, of Hood Kiver. who spoke In the strongest terms against the employment of Jap anese laborers, either in . the orchards nr on the farms of Oregon. He charged that future generations will be brought down to the level of the Orientals and will have to contend with them for liv ing wages. Lowered social conditions, small wages. competition between Americans and Japanese for a liveli hood and a demoralised standard of civ ilization were predicted by Mr. Mason as the result of the Introduction of Jap anese labor on this Coas. "The Japs are the worst class of un desirable citizens. declared Mr. Mason. "There are from 400 to 500 Japanese in the Hood River Valley who are used to pick and pack apples and cook. I would never hire one and I do not think any one eke should give them employ ment," "Do the Japanese lease orchards and .ctow fruit on their own account In the Hood River district?" asked Commis sioner Beard. "No." replied Mr. Mason, "and I hope to the Lord they never will." The speaker declared that In Import ing Japanese labor to this state, the peo ple are fastening a burden upon their i hlldren that will bring about a ."id condition In future years. He urged Ihe 1-enple of this generation to keep out the Japanese and thus guard against tile fastening of the evils of coolie labor upon this state. Tells Influence of Grange. J. D. Lee gave it as his opinion that the Grange has been the greatest educa tion force In the lives of the farmers. The Grange, he said, has made farm life attractive and has been the means of arousing local pride. The work of the agricultural colleges, he believed, would le the means of giving tone to the vocation of the farmer and would tend to keep the farmers' boys on the farms. George W.

Exploitation of Portland's Feast of Roses Given. Immense Impetus McMurray's Letter. Immediately upon the heels of the an nouacement that the Union Pacific would issue a special Rose Festival folder for general distribution throughout the Uni ted States comes the news that all of the affiliated Harriman lines are going to jump in and boost the third annual civic demonstration in this city the second week of June, next year, to the very Iinm. The following communication from William McMurray, general passenger agent of the Harriman lines in Oregon, bearing upon the particular subject of ex ploitation, shows that the Festival will be given a campaign of publicity through the agency of the Harriman lines, free of charge, which could not otherwise be secured for less than tens of thousands of dollars: Gorg-e L.

While the Hill lines, the Northern Pa cific and the Spokane, Portland & Seat tle have Intimated in a general way that they would do a considerable amount of advertising for the Festival, they have not made any definite 'official announce ment as to the extent of the publicity which they would accord the forthcom ing celebration. The proposition has al ready been laid before Assistant General Passenger Agent A. D. Charlton, of the Northern Pacific, and General Freight and Passenger Agent H. M.

She says she then offered hhn the cash, and that he refused to take it. Although the night was pitch dark, and the car two miles from Chemekata, it was stopped, and the hoppicker elected in humiliation and degradation. She says that the exposure and fright of that night are worth $0000. MAKES PECULIAR BEQCESTS Provisions of IiUcina- S. Hunt's AVill Said 'Sot to Bo Carried Out.

WASHINGTON", Dec. 3. Governor Ma goon, or Cuba, arrived Here today ana had a conference with Secretary of War Wright relative to the withdrawal of American troo.s from Cuba. The troops. was expected, would be withdrawn in February. Whether a small number of soldiers would be left there is yet to be determined. Mr. Magoon spoke in the highest-terms of the ability of Cubans to govern them selves. He said that during the two years he had been Governor there never had been the least necessity of employing the troops on police duty, and that the influence of the United States there was a moral one. How long it will take to withdraw the soldiers is largely a matter of transports. The Department also is considering the best methods for bringing the troops back without subjecting them to the dangers of illness from change of climate.

COMMITTEE HAS MEETING By Bare Majority Votes to Recom mend Granting of Applications of Eight Down-town Grills for Iiicenses. At a special meeting of the liquor II cense committee of the City Council, held yesterday afternoon, a recommenda tion to grant the applications of eight restaurant proprietors for licenses to dis pense liquor with meals was voted by a bare majority of the members. Five of the committeemen were present. Coun oilman Rushlight alone voted against the motion to grant the licenses, but it is thought that he will have strong sup port In the Council next Wednesday. It is doubtful whether the lienses will be authorized, owing to the bitter feeling among a number of the Councilmen over the Cellars anti-women-in-the-saloons law. Some of them, feel like blocking everything regarding the saloon interests until the Cellars law is repealed or amended. Included In the applications are those from the Hof Brau, the Louvre, the Turn Halle and other "big" downtown restaur ants and grills, which are now serving liquor with meals without any restaurant liquor license. It was to endeavor to straighten out the tangle and to see if something could not be done to clear up the situation that the special meeting of the committee was held. The recom mendation to grant the applications means that, if carried, it will give all these places the, privilege of selling liquor with meals for the sum of $300 per year. Some of the members of the Council favor increasing the license from $300 to $800 a year. Councilman Rushlight, who attempted to amend the stringent Cellars law four weeks ago, but failed, "stood pat" yes terday and refused to sign any of the applications or to vote for granting them. He reiterated his former statement that he will not sign any or vote for any until the Cellars law "Is straightened out and every one gets a fair deal." He said he would vote to revoke the restaurant liquor licenses of the Hotel Portland, the Oregon Grill and any others which hold such, Rnd Councilman Driscoll so moved, but they were outvoted. Councilman Wallace then moved that the applica tions be granted, and this motion pre vailed. The matter will thus be put up to the Council, which is scheduled to meet next Wednesday. The committee also revoked its order calling all saloon-keepers found guilty in the Municipal Court to appear before it and stand trial. The Municipal Judge is now to be requested to send up all cases he regards as flagrant and worthy of the attention of the committee. Police Kaid Opium Joint.

Days More! EVER FIGURE ON BUYING A SUBURBAN HOME OF AN ACRE OR TWO? Are you one of the thou sands who have said. "I would be satisfied if I had a couple of acres of land where I could build my home, plant my garden and still be able to continue my employment in the city"? There is not a nobler, more sensible or practical idea of living than this. Suburban life is real life, provided all the conditions that make it pleasant are present. To make life an an acre or two pleasant, many things are necessary. The property should be near a large city, on a first class electric line, must have good soil, high elevation, ought to be close to all the social and educational re quirements of the modern day, and, best of all, be healthful and surrounded by an environment that will make the outlook always de lightful. Such is BASE LINE ACRES. Let us see. NEAR THE CITY. BASE LINE ACRES is exactly 9 miles east of the Courthouse on Stark Street, known as the Base Line Road. It is only 8 miles from the termi nal of the Mount Hood Rail way. ELECTRIC LINE. The Mount Hood Railway passes through BASE LINE ACRES just 1200 feet north of the Base Line Road. This line will be completed and in op eration within six months. This will carry the suburban ite to the city in S5 minutes. This will double the price of the property in the same length of time. ABOUT THE SOIL. It is known among fruitmen that the best cherries in the world are raised on this soil. The berries that come from the acres along the Base Line Road are unsurpassed for quality and quantity. The soil is splendidly adapted for the raising of fruit and vegeta bles of almost every known variety. ELEVATION. BASE LINE ACRES is 300 feet above sea level and 50 feet above the highest residence districts of the East Side. There is no purer air, no bet ter drainage and no more de lightful place to live than on this magnificent high land, stretching so gracefully be tween Mount Tabor and Mount Hood. PROXIMITY OF SOCIAL REQUIREMENTS. Churches are near at hand, and the city schools just a few minutes' walk. Grocery stores, mar kets and shopping facilities are found all around, while the big retail stores of Port land are within a few min utes' ride. THE ENVIRONMENT. In all the world there is not a more inspiring scenic outlook than that which sweeps the sky line on all sides of BASE LINE ACRES. To the east, Mount Hood; to the south east, Mount Jefferson; to the north, Mount St. Helens and Mount ,Adams. Where can this outlook be duplicated or equalled? From the tower ing peaks and lower moun tains of the Cascades comes the health-giving, invigorat ing air that makes the cheek bloom and the blood red. PRICE AND TERMS. Acre tracts in BASE LINE ACRES may be purchased now for "$225 and from that up to $350. Terms of the most convenient character may be arranged.
