a survey to be made of the

pointment of Jonn Driscotl to go to Sa
lem In the Interests of the pilotage bill
now pendiiiK. were features of a special
fcf-ssion of the Port of Portland, held
vesterday afternoon. It was the consen
sus of opinion of the members that it is
wise to use mui-h precaution In the se
lection of tups and towboats. and. accord
ing to the action ' taken, there will be no
purrhases of boats until a thorough in
vestigation Is made to determine a proper
price. W. u. Wheelwright, speaking on
the subject, expressed what proved to be
the general desire of the other members
when he said he would favor buying new
craft to tiie exclusion of old.
Offer or J. P. O Brion.
A letter was received from Mr. O'Brien,
general manager of the Harrlman lines
in the Northwest, offering the tug Wal
lula for $. and the towboat Ockla
liama for !n.(X. Mr. O'Brien said ho
regarded both as very fair prices. He
thought, he said. It would be impossible
for the port to build a tug as good as the
Wallula for less than 1100.000. In this
regard, however, he was believed by Chief
Kngineer lyx-kwood. to be in error, as
Mr. Ixkwood declared that its equal or
Iwtter can be purchased for HI .000. There
fore, the offer was rejected.
As to the Oiklahama. it was thought
that the price named for her Is reason
able, and the recommendation of Kn
gineer Ixickwood. that a survey of her
be made, was authorized by the port.
Plans and specifications were on hand
for an ocean-going tug of the first qual
ity, drawn by Engineer Ijockwood. and
after acting upon the offers by Mr.
O'Brien, it was ordered that bids be
requested on these specifications for
two vessels, also setting a price on a
single vessel. These bids will be opened
at the regular meeting March 11. After
the bids are awarded, nine months will
be allowed In which the contractors shall
deliver the craft.
Will Create Sinking; Fund.
The port also decided to create a sink
ing fund to pay off the bond issues for
the Port of Portland and the port dry
clock. The first named issue will require
an annual sum of J1T.500, and the other
w ill require JIO.OOO a year.
John Driscoil was delegated to go to
Falem today and look after the interests
of the port In regard to the pilotage bill,
now pending before .the House. A tele
gram from Speaker McArthur, Teceived
while the meeting was In progress yester
day afternoon, said that the bill will be
t:p for action in the House today. It
will then go to the Senate, and it is high
ly Important, It was explained, that it
pass speedily.
Mr. Driseoll. who has charge of the
payroll of the port, was considerably
worked up because Chief Engineer Lock
wood had granted to Roy Groves, assist
ant to the engineer of the dredge serv
ice, an increase of $30 a month without
bringing the matter first before the
"ommisslon. He said he regarded It as
too much of a raise for one time, even
1f the young man Is worth the Increase.
He also complained because the payroll is
so high, and said he thought It is time
for close scrutiny of the lists, to the end
that it may he pruned somewhat. The
Commission, however, disagreed with
him regarding the pay of Mr. Groves, and
ordered the claim audited and paid for
January, and fixi.d the next meeting as
a time when the payroll is to receive
some attention.

INSTITUTE CLUB
DISCUSSES WORK
Annual Meeting Held, Reports
Read and Officers Are
Chosen for Year.
HEART THROBS IN REPORTS
Various Phases of Club's Activity
Taken Ip and Great Amount of
Good Is Accomplished, With
Needs of Future Kclated.
The iMMtitute Club held its annual meet
ing on the second floor of The Peoples
Institute, corner of Fourth and Burnside
streets, yesterday afternoon. The mem
bers were out in force, and the iail was
crowded. The utmost enthusiasm pre
vailed, and as one visitor remarked, "this
i going to be "The Hull House of Port
land.' "
After the meeting had been called to
order by the president, Mrs. Helen Ladd
Corhctt. and preliminary business had

l.add Corhctt; tirst vice-president. Mrs.

Heart Throbs in Reports.
By these reports it could be seen that
the question of "applied Christianity" is
what is interesting the "masses." Some
of these reports read as naively and went
as straight to the heart as a Dickens
Christmas story. It was amusing, and It
was pathetic as. well to hear about fathers
In humble circumstances who appreciated
highly the fact that their girls had
learned to cook, or to sew. and who were
not passionately interested in the Sunday
school careers of these daughters. The
paner on Christmas visits was a simple,
artless story of going Into the homes of
nakedness and despair, and bringing the
glow and happiness of Christmas miracles
into them. It was the most unpretentious
of recitals, but in its last analysis, un
consciously, it was an awful indictment
against the city. Against- those who In
comfortable homes, shut out the wraiths
of starving and unhappy childhood, by
viewing only the faces of their own happy
children.
The papers on sewing and cooking
showed how eagerly the idea of learning
something useful took hold on the girls
and bovs of the poorer classes. All of
these papers were exceedingly interesting,
and all showed that the work the Institute
Club i doing is based upon a sane and
sensible basis, and is a work which if
adequately supported will pay a million
fold on the capital invested. As was logi
cally put bv the last and principal speaker
of the afternoon. Miss Valentine Prichard,
the alms and ends of the club are four
fold in .number. First, social; second,
educational and Industrial: third, hu
manitarian; fourth, "civic activity.
Work of Club for Year.
Her paper was a report of what the
Institute Club had accomplished during
the last year, and what she had seen
during her trip to Chicago, New York,
and other cities. It was an entirely un
lm passioned recital of facts, and an ar
gument built on these facts, showing the
necessity of the work which Is being
done by the Club, and the imperative need
of financial support if the work is to
advance and increase the sphere of its
activities and usefulness.
The same opportunity and need of an
Institution of the nature of the Hull
House. In Chicago, the speaker empha
sized in her paper. "Need to teach the
people that someone really does are,
without any ulterior motive. That there
Is a crying need to reform from the bot
tom upward, and not from the top down
ward. That millions of dollars can and
will be saved a large city by a sensi
ble and persistent course of humanity
toward the young people of the working
arid poorer classes, and that even in the
strictest economical sense it is a paying
Investment.
"The institute Club has passed its ex
perimental stage. It has proved what can
be done: it has a Meld; It should be en
couraged. The club needs a first-class,
substantial building, and an endowment
fund to keep It going without recourse
to 'catch-as-catch-can' financial methods
to make it independent.
"Such an institution is an insurance
against crime, misery, disease, degrada
tion and poverty. It makes for higher
Ideals by making sanitation, self-help,
cleanliness, duty, good citizenship and
purer morals the goals sought for. It Is
active, not passive Christianity.' It
means a constantly augmenting power
for good, and one day the men and wo
men now engaged in this work in Port
land will be remembered as having start
ed the noblest work of which any city
can boast.
"And the Institute Club, in a thor
oughly practical way, modeling Its plans
after Toynbee Hall, In Ijondon, and Hull
House, in Chicago, lias set its power to
the accomplishment of these ends, and
deserves the enthusiastic aid of every
man and woman with a drop of good, red
blood In their veins."
The speaker's address was enthusias
tically applauded.
MAY WALK IN HIS LIGHT
Twentieth Century Folk Slay Not
Shine as Jesus Did.
PORTLAND. Feb. 2. (To the Edi
tor.) To a spiritually-minded person
who owes fealty to no creed and de
nies to the churches a monopoly of
religion this talk of organized effort
to do things as Jesus would do them
appears like presuming a good deal.
It presupposes in the subjects a mind,
spirit, and disposition. If not already
like those attributes believed to have
been possessed by the Master, yet la-
. aA.iltlaa nn!v waiting tfl hs
aroused and put into action by the
mere taking of a resolution.
Does the premeditated action con
sider the real characteristics, attri
butes of the divine personality as
viewed from a spiritual standpoint?
A little reflection might convince one
that more is involved in such an un
dertaking than at first appears on the
surface, and to a bystander like the
writer it seems only another evidence
of the many substitutes that have from
time to time been presented, possibly
honestly, as the genuine brand of sal
vation. Now. to do as some great
personage lias done means an equip
ment for doing; similar to the equip
ment possessed by that great person
age. Most mortals are minus such
equipment. If a train of cars Is to
be run at the rate of 60 miles an hour
it can't be pulled by an engine with a
normal speed of only 20 miles-an hour.
How Impossible for the ordinary or
even extraordinary "mortal to imitate
Shakespeare, or do as Newton or Edi
son has done, and though there be
Shakespeares, Newtons. and Edisons
there is only one Jesus. How much
less then are those liable to succeed
who would do as Jesus did!
But this is not pessimistically in
tended. The purpose is to calT atten
tion to the great lone divine person
ality, the Ideal, with all the attributes
conceivable that go to make a char
acter worthy of Imitation, were Imita
tion possible, yet useless to try to
approach until first possessing some
at least of the attributes of that spiri
tual personality. As the above-mentioned
great men was each a genius
In his line, literary. Inventive, scien
tific, so we look upon Jesus as a spiri
tual genius at least. Endowed with
spirituality as no man before or
since was ever endowed, Jesus' can
have no Imitators. He may have fol
lowers, disciples, who in accordance
with their spiritual development may
do things slmilarlly in kind to the
things that Jesus did but not in de
gree. He not only was but is "The
Light of the World." and men may not
shine as that light shines but may only
walk in that light. N. HAMBKRG.
ROSS MUST GIVE UP BOOKS
IIKCF-IVEK'HOWAKD WANTS TO
W INI) IP TITLK BANK.
No Attention Paid to Formal Ie
mand for Accounts and Court
Order Is Issued.
J. Tliorburn Ross, who was president
of the defunct Title Guarantee & Trust
Company, has in his possession a num
ber of books that the receiver. R. S.
Howard. Jr., wants to get possesion of
In order to straighten out the affairs of
the concern. Through his attorney. Will
iam C. Bristol, a formal demand was
made upon' Mr. Ross for them, and he
failed to respond to the demand, so now
Receiver Howard is seeking the assist
ance of the Federal Court to compel
Ross to produce the books.
In order to force Ross to turn over
the' books. Receiver Howard, through his
attorney. Mr. Bristol, filed a petition in
the United States Circuit Court yester
day and Judge Wolverton issued an or
der upon Ross to show cause why he
should not produce the books in ques
tion. February 23 was the day set for
the hearing.
The petition cites that Ross kept a set
of books under his direction, consisting
of a cash book, journal and ledger, in
which entries were made by Charles" H.
Kopf and a man named McGulre. all of
which concerned affairs of the bank. It
further says without these books and
the entries in them, certain, other ac
counts of the bank cannot be explained.
As evidence that Receiver Howard had
written to Ross asking for the books, a
copy of a letter was attached to the pe
tition. Ross did not reply to the follow
ing letter: ,
'Portland. Jan. JS. 1909. Mr. J. Thor
burn Ross. 590 Main Street. City. Dear Sir:
I wrote you several daya since requesting
that you kindly send me what is known as
your personal books, but to the moment
have not heard from you, although you vol
unteered some months since 'to forward
these books whenever I called for same.
The time la now here when these books
can be used by me, and as they are a
part of the records of the receivership
I now formally request sending same with
out further delay.
Of course, as you know, I can go Into
court and get an order for same, but which
I trust you will not compel: but I must
have the books of the receivership together,
and vour books form a part thereof. Please
let me bear from you promptly and oblige,
yours truly.

Broke Out on Hips and Legs Was
So Sore, Irritating and Painful
that Little Sufferer Could Not

Kept Growing Worse.
CUTICURA'S EFFECT
QUICK AND PERMANENT
"When about two and a half years
old my daughter broke out on her hips
and the upper parts of her legs with a
very irritating and painful eruption. It
began in October; the first I noticed
was a little red surface and a constant
desire on her part to scratch her limbs.
She could not sleep and the eruptions
got sore, and yellow water came out of
them. I had two doctors treat her, but
she grew worse under their treatment.
Then I bought the Cuticura Soap, Cuti
cura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent,
and only used them two weeks when she
was entirely well. This was in Febru
ary. She has never had another rough
place on her skin, and she is now four
teen years old. I used only half the
bottle of Cuticura Resolvent and less
than a box of Cuticura Ointment. Mrs.

tained that six Councilmen would result
in the establishment of an arbitrary city
government. In which the people could
have little, if any. voice.
H G. Parsons, president of the Port

the charter. He contended that it was
necessary to centralize the power In the
city government, in order to place the
responsibility, which in the present city
government Is entirely wanting. Mr.
Parsons contended that the new charter

St. John. The case will be vigorously
fought on both sides and an appeal is
said to be certain.
Sam Cochran, a prominent liquordealer
of the town ilovn the river, was made
the defendant In a suit in Justice Olson's
court yesterday on the charge of selling
liquor In a prohibited territory. S. C
Cook, an ardent prohibition worker, is
the complainant. '
The situation Is peculiar. At the June
election, the people of St. Jhn voted
"dry," and the town went dry at the
scheduled time. But the decision of the
people was not regarded as final by the
liquor interests. They continued the
fight in their own behalf and several
weeks ago succeeded in causing the
adoption of an ordinance by the Council
of St. John licensing certain places under
stipulated conditions.
Cochran immediately resumed the sale
of liquor. The suit was begun yester
day to see whether he is empowered by
the provisions of any city ordinance to
do what the people said he shidl not do.
