For the first time since the Portland
Asiatic Steamship Company took over,
through charter, vessels from the Hamburg-American
line for the commerce
handled by the local line between this
jort and the Orient, one of the steam
ships made the trip across the Pacific
without cartro-

Vladivostok there was one vessel short

the result that the vessels (tot out of
schedule. For the purpose of restoring
the schedule to Its former dates, the
.Alexia was ordered to proceed at once
to Portland from the Siberian port via
MoJI. Jaian. and resume her place on
the regular line. As there Is no return
cargo from Vladivostok, the vessel came
cross the Pacific in ballast. Her pas

be made to hold.
Captain John Ernst. In command of
the Alesia. reports an extremely low
thermometer at the Vladivostok port dur
ing his stay there, most of the time the
mercury showing 50 degrees belov zero.
Iceboats were constantly at work to

their places filled by Japanese sailors.

During her last stay in Portland
Harbor, the steamship Alliance, plying
between this port and Coos Bay, was
equipped with wireless telegraph ap
paratus. F. P. Baumgartncr. agent for
the California & Oregon Coast Steam
ship Company, yesterday received a
message from Captain E. D. Parsons.
rf the Alliance, announcing progress
of the vessel down the coast, and re
porting all well. The message was
jent out Into the upper atmosphere
from the vessel with the expectation
that it would be picked up at Council
CTrest. this city, but after the electric
"Juice" had been released it took a
free-line for Tillamook Head, where a
vigilant operator captured It. The
message was repeated overland to
Portland, as It was feared that If it
tnce again obtained unrestrained lib
erty it might take a notion to run
over to Honolulu or some other West
tern point.

With the organization of a strong
Commercial Club, which has been Just
accomplished. Burns takes her place
among the rustling cities of Oregon.
Some 50 of the prominent business men
of Burns and vicinity have become
members, and at no time in the history
of the county was there such a spirit
of unity and harmony as is now manifest.
Three things will engage the ener
gies of the club and its officers until
they are secured. They are: The es
tablishment of an agricultural experi
ment station In Harney Valley In con
nection with the Oregon Agricultural
College; the early building of a trunk
ine of railroad east and west across
the state, and the amendment of the
desert land act so that actual reclama
tion and production of crops shall be
the test In procuring title, without re
gard to Irrigation.
The importance of these things is at
once apparent, and every influence
possible will be utilized to accomplish
the desired results. William Hanley,
one of the most forceful and resource
ful men of Interior Oregon, is presi
dent of the new club; Archie McGowan
is secretary, and these two. with Irwin
s:. Geer. Frank Davey and Dr. L. E.
Hlbbard. form the executive committee
that will have charge of the business
of the club.

Helm 39 shares of stock which the court
ordered canceled, has been filed in the
Circuit Court. It Is alleged bv Mrs.

told the stock to William Combs, who
turn transferred it to Mrs. Helm.
Last August the corporation commenced

time the corporation was about to be or
ganized, that he had an option on Cali

WILSON RESENTS DIATRIBE
Centenary Pastor Accuses Dr. Cline
of Maligning Him.
Jo little stir marked the session, yester
day, of the Methodist Ministerial Associa
tion when Rev. Clarence True v nson
announced that a member of the associa
tion had written an article recently over
the signature of J. F. Clark, in which
Dr. Wilson was severely criticised be
cause of his sermon advising Statement
No. 1 members of the Legislature to
vote for Governor Chamberlain for Sena
tor. For a time Dr. Wilson hesitated to
call the name of the accused minister.
but upon being pressed to do so, he asked
Dr. C. E. Cline either to disavow or ad
mit that he had written the article in
question. At tho request of the associa
tion. Dr. Wilson read the communication
which contained several uncomplimentary
references to the pastor of Centenary
Church. He was said to be concerned in
too many things, of trying to regulate the
conduct of the people from a moral, in
tellectual and governmental standpoint,
and with officiousness on all occasions.
The demand for an explanation becoming
general, Dr. Cline arose and said that he
had knowledge of the Clark communica
tion, but asked Dr. Wilson if every word
of it were not true. Dr. Cline then an
nounced that he Hid not wish to go into
the whole matter In open session and in
vited Dr. Wilson to join him and talk
It over In private. Dr. Wilson declined to
do this, and pressed Dr. Cline for an
answer to his question. At this point tho
association went Into executive session.

Seven Men Added-to Seattle Office,
One In Portland and One In Ta
. coma, General Agent Hunter
Is Favorably Impressed.
Large additions to the traffic forces
of the Rock Island system are being
made as the result of the visit of C. A
Hunter, general agent for the Rock
Island and Frisco lines at Portland. Mr.
Hunter returned yesterday and reported
that high officials of the interests he
represents are more Impressed than
ever with the importance of covering
this territory with men so as to secure
their share of the business of the
Pacific Northwest.
As the result of Mr. Hunter's visit
East, seven more men will be put at
work by the Rock Island at once, one in
Portland, one in Tacoma and five ou
of Seattle. Up to this time the Rock
Island has not had an adequate force in
Seattle. It has occupied space in an
other office, but a good downtown office
on Second avenue, near those of the
other lines, has been secured and will
be occupied in April. This will give the
Rock Island a good position in Seattle,
"We got all we asked for," said Mr.
Hunter, who returned from the East yes
terday. "Our new men will be put at
work as fast as they can be secured.
We will have a chief clerk in our office
here, and T. E. Wallace, at present trav
eling freight agent, will be made travel
ing freight and passenger agent out of
this territory. This change will be ef
fective at once.
"When our officials were out here last
Summer I made it plain to them that
we needed more men. They could easily
sec that, while we have more mileaga
to protect than our competitors, we ac
tually had fewer men to look after the
business. On this trip East I secured
all the additional help needed."
Mr. Hunter was away from the city
for one month, during which time ho
visited Chicago and other cities of the
Middle West. He found the officials
of the system, from the President down
agreed with him as to the importance of
oetter representation in this territory
and seemed fully alive to the great
possibilities for traffic In this state.
George P. Cave, of Seattle. . general
agent there for the Rock Island, ap
pointed a short time ago, came to Port
land last night to confer with Mr. Hun
ter over the plans of the Rock Isiand
for .the coming year. He will remain in
the city over today.
RAILROADS ARE BLOCKADED
Landslides and Washouts on North
ern Pacific and O. R. & N.
Washouts and landslides blockaded
trains on the. O. R. & N. and the
Northern Pacific yesterday. The
slides that covered the tracks of the
Hill line between Vancouver and Ka
lama put a stop to the operation of
that division, and the old ferry Ta
coma was kept in service all day car
rying trains across the river to Goble
and thence on to Portland by the old
route that was recently abandoned.
It was not known yesterday just how
soon traffic could be resumed on the
blocked line.
Because of the Northern Pacific.
trains being diverted from the usual
route and the service between Port-1
land and Vancouver crippled, the North
Bank road put on two additional trains
between this city and Vancouver, to
provide a looal service. These trains
will be kept in service as long as the
line between Vancouver and Kalama
is blocked.
The O. R. & N. Washington division
is tied in double bow knots. There arc
landslides and washouts at numerous
places between Wallula and Spokane.
High water in the streams has caused
tracks to be washed away, and slides
have covered the rails in many places.
Large crews of workmen are out re
storing the track to normal condition.
nd it is expected within a short time
he damaged sections will be in opera
tion again.
Meanwhile trains are being detoured
between Wallula and Spokane over the
Northern ' Pacific tracks. Trains 4, 6
nd 8. of Sunday, left Wallula at 2 P.

It is impossible, simply impossible, for any one to
enjoy the best of health if the bowels are consti
pated. Undigested material, waste products, poison

or there will be trouble, and often serious trouble,
too. Ayer's Pills aid nature, that is all.
We have no secrets! We publish

Q lo RHEUMATISM
Rheumatism is caused br an excess of uric acid in the blood, which
graduaUy gets into the circulation because of indigestion, constipation, weak
kidney action, and other irregularities of the system which are sometimes
considered of no importance. This uric acid causes an inflamed and irritated
condition of the blood, and the circulation instead of nourishing the different
nortions of the bodv. continually deposits into the nerves, muscles, tissues
and joints, the irritating, pain-producing acid with which it is filled. Rheu
matism can only be cured by a thorough cleansing of the blood, and this is
just what S. S. S. does. It goes down into the circulation, and by neutralizing-
the uric acid and driving it from the blood, effectually- and surely
removes the cause. O. o. o. sirengiiiens ana invigorates uie tuouu ei ujil
instead of a weak, sour stream, causing pain and agony thoughout the sys
tem, it becomes an invigorating, nourishing fluid, furnishing health and
vigor to every part of the body and relieving the suffering caused by this
disease. S. S. S. being a purely vegetable blood, punher, is the surest ana
safest cure for Rheumatism in any of its forms. Book on Rheumatism and
any medical advice desired sent free to all who write.

I Have Cured
Hundreds of Cases
Like Your Own
There is no economy in empliylns an
amateur to do an expert's task. Nine times
in ten failure follows. In a large percentage
of instances tho result is harm. The average,
phvsician is au amateur in the treatment of
men's diseases. He does not treat cnoucli
cases to learn a great deal about them. Ills
time is so fully occupied in treating a full
assortment of human ills that he cannot de
vote snecial study to any particular branch
of practice. Host diseases are sufficiently
simple as to require no special training other
than l!it received in the medical colleges
and that afforded by experience in peneral
practice. The more complex and perplexing
ailments the family practitioner seldom cares
to treat. He urefer3 to be relieved of tasks
beyond his training, thotiRh ho cannot with
out fear of injurii.R a patient's confidence in
Vila ability, recommend the - services of a
specialist instead of his own. .
The true specialist is a physician who is nbsolute.lv expert In the
treatment of a few diseases. He knows all about the few diseases he
treats and he treats difficult ca.ses with the same certainty with which
the general practitioner treats the most common ailment. For twenty years
I have been treating men's diseases only. I bewail my special work
after thorough preparation at the best medical colleges and hospitals
of the country, and have cured more men than any other specialist in
the West, some of whom were themselves physicians.
If afflicted with any of the ailments constituting my specialty, seek
an expert's and not an amateur's services. You can como to me knowing
that 1 have treated hundreds of cases exactly like your own Pnd thou
sands of others very similar. You can rest assured that I will know just
what to do will riot make a sinsle misstep in the" treatment of your
case and that a complete and permanent cure will follow.
I Am Always Willing to Wait for
My Fee Until a Cure Is Effected
T)H. TAYLOR,

Contracted Disorders
Be sure vour cure is
thorough. Not one of my
patients has ever had ft
relapse after being dis
charged as cured, and I
cure in less time than the
ordinary forms of treat
ment require.
Specific Blood Poison
No dangerous minerals
to drive the virus to the
inter lor, but harmless,
blood-cleansing remedies
that remove the last poi
sonous taint.
Stricture
My treatment is abso
lutely painless, and per
fect results can be de
pended upon in every in
stance. I do no cutting
or dilating whatever.
"WEAKNESS
lt Complete tore 'Without Tonle.
"What Is commonly termed functional weak
ness Is merely a symptom of prostatic liif
enlT. To stimulate activity by the uso or
powerful tonics is an easy mutter, but such
results are merely temporary ilrusr effects.
Most doctors treat "weakness" in this man
ner because they do not know how to cur
the real cause of the dcr inBcnicnt. I am
the only phvsician employing scientific, and
successful methods. 1 use no tonics at all.
My treatment Is a local one entirely and
corrects every abnormal con-lltlon of that
vital center, the prostate (tland. My cures
are real cures, and are permanent.
VARICOCELE
Iin Complete Cure Without Surjtery.
Under my treatment the most aggravated
cases of varicocele are cured. There Is no
cutting, no uin. and It Is seldom necessary
that the patient be detained from hiB oc
cupation. Normal circulation is at ones
restored throughout all the ortraha, and
the natural processes of waste and repair
are again established. If you are afflicted
Willi varicocele, consult me ut once. Delay
can but bring on aggravated conditions and
nervous complications that will Impair the
vital functions and Involve the general
health.

may be able to offer, and I invite all afflicted men to consult me free
