lor th month of December. The British

nnd will round out the month with eight
cargoes, all wheat and bound for Europe.
Shipments to date amount to 6'17iir
,l.u.-he!.s. valued at IS4.4T4: The craft to
follow will amount to fully as much more
and will bring the business of the month
up to a figure above that which was ex-
1 pec ted at the beginning of the month.
January shipments will probably in
crease considerably, owing to the fact
that the fr ight rate from Pacific Coast
ports on arair has beep abolished by the
Association of Sailing Ship-owners. For
months vessels have been tied up await
ing charters at a minimum rate of 27s fid
wiiiln steamships were cutting into tl:e
grain business for as low as its a ton.
As soon as the rate was cut ships offered
for 2s but there were no takers. Con

TO BE RETAINED
Commercial Club Decides to
Start More Aggressive
Publicity Campaign.
MORE FUNDS TO BE RAISED
Many Firms Now Contributing Will
Double Monthly Subscriptions.
Informal IJeports Show Tort
land in Good Condition.
Members of the executive committee of
the Portland Commercial Club, at a spe
cial meeting yesterday, decided to retain
Tom Richardson as manager of the pub
licity department of the club. Plans were
v ...-; ,: v--v . v .... i .
-ft
ftp- Y
discussed for continuing; the activities of
this important department on an enlarged
scale, and steps will be taken immediate
ly for providing; the additional funds that
will be needed to carry out the more ex
tended publicity work that Is contem
plated. The meeting yesterday was at
tended by every member of the commit
tee, as follows: Theodore B. Wilcox,
chairman: W. M. Ladd, A. L. Mills, W.
F. Burrell. J. C. Ain-sworth, J. Frank
Watson, Robert Livingstone, I. X.
Fletsehner and T. D. Honeyman.
"The committee decided not only to re
tain Mr. Richardson but also to en large
the present activities of the organiza
tion," said Mr. Wilcox, after the meet
ing. "In view of the great amount of
advertising that will be done in the inter
opt of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposi
tion and incidentally to advertise the
State of Washington and its resources,
the committee feels that it must exert
itself more this year than ever If Oregon
shall be properly presented to the consid
eration of Eastern visitors and derive her
share of the benefits that undoubtedly
will attend the coming Exposition.
More Funds Are Needed.
"Of course, the extent of the work now
being conducted by the Commercial Club
in this direction depends entirely on the
amount of additional funds that can be
raised, but the committee feels confident
that it will succeed in getting all neces
sary finances."
During the conference of the committee,
Mr. Mills, representing the First Na
tional Bank, announced that the bank,
which has contributed $100 a month to the
publicity department of the Commercial
Club ever since the work was inaugurat
ed in 1904, would double its subscription,
and during lld9 would contribute &M0
monthly to the same fund. Other sub
scribers to this fund will be asked t
double their subscriptions. It will be in
this way that the club hopes to be able
to carry out its jjlans.
One thing introduced in the discussion
at the meeting was the matter of placing
before the people throughout the Eastern
States, by means of the agricultural pa
pers, the farming opportunities of this
state. This plan was favored by the com
mittee, which also declared for a better
character of specific advertising matter
of the state and its resources, for circu
lation. Kxcursions to Be Arranged.
It was practically agreed b the com
mittee that an excursion of Portland
business men should be given to Grays
Harbor and other points where the in
terests of the city are naturally located.
Tho immediate appointment of a com
mittee by President Hobson to have
charge of the details of such excursions
was authorized.
Informal reports were made by the
members of the committee as to general
business conditions in Portland. Note
worthy among the reports was the fact
that the number of bank accounts In the
various Institutions of the city is Increas
ing rapidly, indicating a constantly grow
ing population. Further evidence that
the city's population is Increasing Is the
fact that vacant houses and offices in
the city will soon command a premium.
A majority of the members of the ex
ecutive committee have served on that
committee in directing the exploitation
work of the club since that department
was established, four years ago. It will
be their intention to continue their serv
ices for the year 119 and then deliver
the task over to others, feeling that a
five years" administration of this work
should entitle them to an exempt certifi
cate. If the committee succeeds In exe
cuting its plans for an Intensely aggress
ive campaign next year, it will have es
tablished a standard that will be difficult
for a succeeding committee to surpass.
BENEFIT THURSDAY NIGHT
Hundreds of Tickets Sold for T. M.
A. Midnight Matinee at Orpheum.
Hundreds of tickets have been sold
for the big T. M. A. benefit which takes
place Thursday night at the Orpheum
Theater, and a packed house is as

o'clock the seats will go on reserve at

duced into the entertainment, and those
who attend this first event of its kind
ever given In Portland will always re
member it as one of the pleasant spots
In their lives.
DISCUSSES TARIFF TRICKS
A Democrat Pays His Respects to
Senator Elkins.
PORTLAND, Dec. 28. (To the Editor.)
I ask apace In The Oregonian for the pur
pose of sanctioning the editorial entitled
Tariff Trickery," in last Sunday's issue,
and which goes to show how the Standard
Oil Company obtained "protection" when the
Dingley schedules were perfected by the
Senate. I notice also that Mr. Taft is asked
to have the courage to veto such revision of
the present tariff If the schedules are slyly
made in the United States Senate to give
clandestine favors to the "interests."
The editorial referred to is what prompts
mo to coincide with its views, especially
when I note the names of Mr. Aldrich and
Mr. Elkins, who are well known, and old
timers in the Senate. The people do know
that Mr. Elkins Is a corporation Senator and
I note Mr. Elkins solemn pledge broken on
the railroad rate bill, which Is pigeon-holed.
Now, if Mr. Elkins has a hand in the re
vision of the present tariff, it will be well
to keep an eagle eye on him and other
corporation Senators. It would not be the
firHt time that special Interests were favored
through trickery and by the stroke of the
srfelght-of-hand performer. If any Republi
can is disposed to deny the possibility of a
law passing through Congress without its
"-""r t
l J; '', r-. .:.. ... 19Vh'''
W&&.v&Q& w,5ew,: 9.i
contents being understood by Congress, let
him remember section 2a of the Dingley
bill. Congress did not know that the Ding
ley bill contained section 22. notwithstand
ing the fact that the bill passed the Senate
and House and was signed by the President.
Senator Elkins pushed it and acknowl
edged It.
Senator Elkins also acknowledges that he
Is the hitherto unknown author of section
22. the mysterious paragraph In the new
tariff bill, placing penalties upon goods car
ried into the country by foreign transporta
tion companies. Senator Elkins, in speak
ingt of section 22. says: "I am not ashamed
of the part I played. I am proud of It.
The section would have meant for tbe ocean
what the tariff does for the land. I think
it was American and for that reason I
pushed U. This country is bound to be the
mistress of the seas Just as soon as we get
time to attend to It. I wanted to hurry it
along. There waB no trick about It at all.
I simply worked to succeed. Of course I
was not going to tell those opposed to the
scheme all about It."
It will be well for Mr. Tart to be on
the lookout for these expert Senators wno
are In the habit of pushing these mysterious
paragraphs into a document after passing
both houses and veto same if such has
been pushed in the way of a mysterious
Juggling. CHARLES D. HENRY.
HIES IN FAVOR DF TARIFF
CHICAGO LUMBERMAN DENIES
INTERVIEW PUBLISHED.
Says He Was Falsely Quoted and
Declares for Protection of Amer
ican Lumber Industry.
In a telegram to A. B. Wastell, secre
tary of the Oregon & Washington Lum
ber Manufacturers' Association, yester
day, Edward Hines, president of the Ed
ward Hines Lumber Company, of Chi
cago, denies that he gave an interview
advocating a reduction In the tariff on
lumber. In the interview 'that was sent
out in the press dispatches from Chicago
December 21, Mr. Hines was quoted as
follows:
We are also hoping that a further reduc
tion may be mada in the cost of lumber to
American consumers by the taking off or
the tariff. The greater part of our land is
In Canada and thla would enable us to bring
the Canadian lumber Into the United States,
a thing that the tariff practically prohibits
now.
"As this statement was altogether con
trary to the views expressed by Mr.
Hines before the Congressional ways and
mean? committee during the hearing at
Washington, D. C, in November," said
Mr. Wastell yesterday, "we at once ar
ranged by telegraphing Mr. Hines to
learn if he had been correctly quoted in
Chicago. In answer we today received
the following telegram from Mr. Hines in
Chicago:
Contradict alleged interview Chicago pa
pers 21st regarding cost lumber or my
being favorable reduction tariff, in Western
papers. Last week's American Lumberman
hows my position identical with statement
berore ways and means committee, Wash
ington. In his statement to the publication re
ferred to in his telegram Mr. Hines de
clares that any reduction in the tariff
on lumber would be extremely damaging
not only to American lumber interests,
but to the cause of forest conservation
in this country. Mr. Hines' statement
as published in the American Lumber
man. December 26, follows:
Whereas, It has been given out by the
press and generally circulated that, be
cause of the consolidation of certain timber
and mill properties in Northern Minnesota
and Western Ontario, under the style of
the Virginia & Rainy Lake Company, in
which I am interested, I have changed my
attitude In regard to the tariff upon lum
ber imported Into the tnlted States and
am now in favor of Its abolition. I wish to
state as emphatically as I can, through the
columns of the American Lumberman, that
I have made no change whatsoever in my
opinion or feeling in regard to that matter;
that I am as firmly convinced as ever that
the removal or lowering of tha lumber duty
would be damaging In the extreme to
American lumber Interests, to American
labor and to tho cause of rorest conserva
tion In the United States. It is true that
the removal of the duty would favorably
affect the value of that portion of our
timber, but my Interests and those of my
associates are essentially American and we
stand today aa we have all along for the
protection and upbuilding of tne American
lumber Industry and the maintenance of
American timber values, upon which to so
large a degree depends the progress of foi
est conservation, for reasons which have
been amply stated heretofore.

TAFT TO OPEN IT
Will Press Button for Rose
Festival Next June.
PRESIDENT-ELECT WRITES
Will Not Be Able to Attend, but Will
Do Next Best Thing Remembers
Portland Roses From Visit In
September Last Year.
President William Howard Taft will
formally open the third annual Portland
Rose Festival, )o be held in this city
the week of June 7-12, 1909. President
Ralph W. Hoyt, of the Festival Associa
tion, received a letter from Roosevelt's
successor to this effect yesterday after
noon. . Taft's letter was one which in
spired the Festival promoters with a feel
ing that at last the metropolis of fha
Northwest received due and proper
recognition from the seats of the mighty.
The opening function of the next Fes
tival will take place at noon on Monday,
Jure 7, when the formal exercises in
connection with "Homo Coming Day"
will be observed, and it is at this time
that the new President will officiate.
Rather voluminous correspondence has
been carried on between the officials
of the Rose Festival and the President
elect regarding this matter during the
past month, but in yesterday's letter the
full assurance that the local celebration
had received National indorsement was
for the first time vouchsafed.
The following is a copy of the com
munication received from the next chief
executive of the Nation, touching the
local demonstration:
' Augusta. Ga., December 23. 1!K8 Ralph
W. Hoyt, President Portland Rose Festival
Association, Portland. Or. -My Pear Sir: I
beg to acknowledge the receipt of your let
ter of December 8, and to say In reply that
It will not be possible for me to attend the
Portland Rose Festival on June 8. I shall,
however, take pleasure In touching an elec
tric button at the White House as a signal
for the formal opening of the festival, as
you request. Yours very sincerely.
WILLIAM H. TAFT.
Promoters of the Portland Rose Festi
val are particularly Jubilant from the
fact that this is the first celebration of
any prominence to which President-elect
Taft has lent his official approval since
the result of last November's election
was known. As revealed in portions of
the correspondence with him, he seems
to be more deeply impressed with the
idea of having the opening day given
over to a "home coming" celebration
than any of the other various features
which have been outlined to him.
The President-elect has written in
glowing terms regarding the A.-Y.-P. Ex
position to be held at Seattle next Sum
mer and has expressed his sincere regrf-.t
that he will not be able to attend and in
recent letters he has informed the Rose
Festival management that there would
be no greater pleasure that he could con
jure up than to revisit the two great
cities of the Pacific Northwest and be
personally present during their indi
vidual entertainments. A year ago last
September Taft, then only a tentative
candidate for the Presidency, visited
Portland and was the guest of Theodore
B. Wilcox. Mr. Wilcox showed the dis
tinguished statesman and putative Presi
dential candidate around Portland and
loaded down both Mr. and Mrs. Taft
with the most beautiful specimens of
Portland's roses that could be found.
"I believe,' said President Ralph W.
Hovt. of the Rose Festival Association,
last night, "that it was Judge Taft's
last visit here that has led him to grant
us the great concession contained in his
letter.
"We are now placed on a plane of
National -prominence equal to any pub
j0 celebration held anywhere in America.

TO EFFECT A CURE
No class of human aliments Is
so little understood among the
profession today as the disease'
peculiar to men. As a result the
methods commonly employed in
treating them are but relics of
earlier periods In medical science.
I have departed from every form
of treatment that my own experi
ence and research have proven In
effective and unscientific. I have
replaced them with original and
tnorougnly modern methods that
have proven supremely effective.
Every detail of my procedure lr.
each Individual case is based upon
accurate knowledge as to condi
tions and requirements, and my
cures are duplicated by no other
physician or specialist.
My Fee for
a Thorough
Cure Is Only

I offer you not only FREE consultation and advice, but of every
case that conies to me I will make a careful examination and diag
nosis without cunrge. No ailing man should neglect this opportunity
to get expert opinion about his trouble.

Despair and Despondency
No one but a woman can tell the story of the suffering, the
despair, and the despondency endured by women who carry
a daily burden of ill-health and pain because of disorders and
derangements of the delicate and important organs that are
distinctly feminine. The tortures so bravely endured com
pletely upset the nerves if long continued.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a positive cure for
weakness and disease of the feminine organism.
