16 COAST CRAFT GET HAIL CONNECTIONS North Bank Road Will Handle 1 Freight for Interior Points From San Francisco. SIX STEAMERS CHARTERED Olson & Mahony Co. Makes Freight Arrangement "Willi Hill Lines for Cargo for Inter ior Points. Freight from San Francisco to points in the Northwest territory, including Spokane and the Coeur d'Aler.e country, will hereafter be handled by the Spo kane, Portland .& Seattle Railroad. Ar rangements have been completed with the Olson & Mahony Company, of San Fran cisco, whereby four vessels of that line will handle northbound freight for points east of Portland. Two additional ves rels have been chartered to make, the line complete. George J. Richardson has been ap pointed San Francisco agent of the Olson & Mahony line and he will also handle any additional vessels which carry freight consigned to points east of Portland and routed over the North Bank road. The Portland end of the business will be handled by the Oak-street dock and the transfer from there to the railroad Eheds of the North Bank road will be made by team. In addition to the steam schooners Thomas 1. Wand. Olson & Mahony. Jim Butler and J. Marhoffer, of the Olson & Mahony fleet, arrangements have been closed for chartering the Daisy Mitchell and Daisy Freeman to carry northbound cargoes di-Htlned for inland points and routed over the North Bank road. The first vessel to eail from San Fran cisco under the new- arrangement will be the Jim Butler, which is scheduled to t.all March 25. She will be followed im mediately by the Olson & Mahony and the J. Marhoffer. Sailing dates of the other vessels have not been announced. The freight arrangement between the Hill lines and the steam schooners puts at rest the story that the Hill interests have purchased the steamships Yale and Harvard from the Metropolitan Steam ship Company, of Boston, for service be tween Portland and San Francisco. With the exception. of 100 feet water frontage, all dock space on the new grain ware house, recently built by the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railroad, has been leased to local grain exporters. The recent passenger arrangement be tween the Pacific Coast Steamship Com pany and the San Francisco & Portland Steamship Company, whereby passengers could purchase tickets from Portland to San Diego or Loe Angeles direct and make direct connection at San Fran cisco, has no bearing on the freight ar rangement Just made. Passengers leav ing Portland will proceed to San Fran cisco on the Rose City or Senator and transfer at that place to the President or Governor. Portland ships will reach the Bay City Monday morning and the Pa cific Coast boats will leave for the south the same afternoon at 4 o'clock. The new arrangement pertains directly to northbound freight and not passengers. It. 1. IXMAN TOTAL LOSS Steam tk-hooner Cannot Be Saved. Carniel Chartered In Place. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal March 22. The steam schooner R. D. Inman, which went ashore near Bolinas Point Satur day night while heading for a brush fire which her captain mistook for a burning ship, will be a total loss. She has not changed her position on the rocks, and it is declared to be impos sible to pull her off. Her captain, C. J. Lancaster, and his crew of 20 men were in no danger at any time, as thev were able to walk from the vessel to the land over the rocks on which she struck. They remained on board until nearly noon today, when they were talc en on board the schooner Jennie Griffin and brought to this city. The steam schooner R. D. Inman was built at Marshfield two yeaj-s ago under tho personal supervision of Captain I.evlnson, who until five trips ago was master of the ship. Captain Levinson was succeeded by Captain Lancaster, who prior to that time had been in the employ of the American-Hawaiian Company. The vessel was 1S6.5 feet long, 39 feet beam and 14 feet depth of hold. She cost $110,000 and was named after R. D. Inman, of the Inman, Poul sen Lumber Company, of Portland. Mr. Inman was interested in the steamer to the extent of $25,000. , Her place on the run between Portland and San Francisco will be taken by the steam era Carniel. of the Homer Frltch line. A full cargo is waiting at this end of the route. Argo Arrives Frofii Tillamook. With 22 rnssengers and a cargo of cheese, the steamship Argo arrived up yesterday morning from Tillamook Bay. Captain Anderson reports a. heavy sea and head winds coming up tho Coast. A full cargo and passenger list will be carried on the outward vovage this evening. The Argo is maintaining the weekly schedule between Ti'la moojt and Portland. Official Trial of II. IL Kennedy. Arrangements have been made for the official trial trip of the new steam er H. B. Kennedy Thursday ofternoon. A run will be made down the Colum bia River and return in order to show the vessel oft to the admiring friends or the Willamette Iron Steel Works and the owners. It Is expected that she wtll develop better than 21 miles on that occasion. The contract calls for 20 miles, the run to be made on Fuget Sound. llallev Kalzcrt Comes Out Thursday. Thursday morning the steamer Bail ey Gatiert. of the Regulator Line steamers, wtll be placed in commission between Portland and The Dalles. She will operate in place of the steamer Dalles City until April 6. when she will start on th Summer excursion run. making daily round trips. Tho Dalles City will be repaired at the St John ways.

AN IRISHMAN and a negro were brought into the l-lice station Sun day morning for not obeying the com mandment, "Touch not. taste not, handle not." They had done all three, and were feeling fine until the fact was impressed upon them that it was time for them to go to bed. and that they had no discretion in the matter of where their sleeping apartments were to be. This was on Saturday night, and when the cold gray dawn of the morning after arrived, thev were very repentant. Upon being brought to the Captains desk to deposit bail they were asked their names. . The Irishman came first. "Me name is John McLaughlin." "Oh, you are a Scotchman?" said the Captain. "No, Sor-r-r. Oi am not. I spell me name M-c-L-a-u-g-h-l-I-n not a-n. and Oi niver-r-r was arrested befor-re in me loife." he replied. "Well, you must be more careful in the future.

Chocolate-colored Willie, what is your name." the Ethiopian was asked. "Henry Smith, suh." "Where did you get your booze?" "Well, you see, boss, it was jest some Ah had left ovar, and Ah didn't like to see it go to waste, so Ah jest swallered It," said the negro. "Hold up your right hand. "Will you swear to God you'll never- get drunk again?" asked the Captain with a slv wink at those standing near. "Yes. suh. Ah honestly will suh." "All right. There are your things. Now skidoo."

THE MORNING OREGOXIAy, TUESDAY, MARCH COLONIST HOSTS ARE GOOD CITIZENS Influx of Men on Homeseek ers' Excursions After Homes in Oregon. CROWDS. ON ALL TRAINS Sturdy Farmers Coming From Mid dle West to Find . Residences in Warmer Climate of This State ' of Inexhaustible Kesources. , From present indications the num ber of homeseekers coming into Ore gon will be greatly augmented over previous years. The colonist rates for travel are to be continued until and including April 31, 1909. This will give rive weeks more in which colonists and inquirers can make arrangements to visit the Northwest, and if the travel as it is now coming ins is any criterion to judge by, the month of April, 1909 will show an increase over any similar month for years past. The railroads Report the arrival of crowded coaches from points east and south and north, and that the people coming In are 90 per cent settlers, who are inquiring for farm and fruit lands. These prospective purchasers are men who do not stay over in the city, but scatter throughout the state, and who come prepared to invest money A great many are going into Southern Oregon and into the fruit lands and the timbered districts, according to their inquiries on arriving in Portland. A year ago or more there was an influx of men travelers alone, who seemed to be the advance guard sent ahead to look up the land and ascer tain the advantages of permanent set tlement. But now the arrivals count mapy more families In their numbers and they are bringing in furniture and household goods as an indication of their intention of making Oregon their permanent home. Mostly AH Stay in Oregon. Some few of these visitors scatter to the south as far as California, and a few find their way into Washington; but the bulk of the arrivals on the o. R. & fc. and the Northern Pacific are spreading out. into Oregon, and par ticularly taking up their abode in the Tr Vnnmet,e Valley. and within a radius or 100 miles or so from Portland Ir is astonishing to note how many of these arrivals are from Indiana, Illinois. Ohio, Missouri and other Mississippi Valley States. Whole train loads sometimes come In from one lo cality, and the apparent trend to the Nortnwest from the older settled states is taken as indicative of the changed conditions in those portions of the timed States. One of these conditions ana an always-present one, is the cli matic burden due to the long and se vere V inters in the central part of America. The seasons seem to be changing, in that Spring comes later in the Mississippi Valley, sometimes care lessly failing to make any appearance whatever, but allowing Winter practi- :,"" tu "oui P ner sphere. This makes Summer come right on with Its sharp contrast of heat, and renders farming a much more complex problem than In the mild climate of the Pacific North west. Then, too, the fuel question is an ever-growing problem to the Mid-West fanner. Tiie comparatively small amount of timber left along the water courses grows less every year, and soft coal, except in certain favored locali ties, is difficult and costly to obtain. The long cold season makes fuel and heavy clotlfing, bedding, etc., a seri ous factor in farming expenses in Mid dle America. Plenty of Fuel in Sight. Here the climatic clemency is further adaed to by the plentiful supplv of timber for many years to come. "The Northwest climate requires vastly less fuei on account of its mildness, ana yet the supply of wood is almost un limited. These facts are gradually fil tering into the intelligence of the farmers of the United States, and the trainloads of them who are arriving every day in their search for homes is a proof that they are acting wisely on the knowledge which has come to them. .. This tide of ' immigration is not a foreign movement. Careful and accur ate attention has been paid both to the class and the nationality of the people who are coming in on the tourist trains and it has been found not only that they have funds to buy farms with but that they have sold their farms in the M.ddle West, South and North, with the fixed purpose of coming out to the Northwest. Most of them, are Ameri cans, sturdy, intelligent, and experi enced in the tillage of the soli. They have the shrewdness of their class, and the independence and ca pacity for work which has already made Oregon what it is as a state- and they are in every wa most desirable and helpful citizens to any community They are the "little-red-schoolhouse" kind of men, thrifty, honest, self-reliant, and full of enthusiasm for the new country. They are coming in by hundreds, too. One morning lately ten coaches. loaded to standing-room came in one of the Portland depots These are no half-bewildered arrivals from foreign lands, with a scrap or two of the English language partially learned, but eager-eyed, jovial Ameri cans, come to conquer the stumps and inequalities of the burned lands, to wrest with ax and muscle the fertile acres from where the timber raises its green bulwarks against the sky. Good Citizens Coming. To see one of these trains roll into the depot is to realize the character and stability to statehood which this class of homebullders and pioneer spirits is bringing into the state. The entire atmosphere is one of enthusi asm and happiness, with babies, bun dles, children, baskets, stalwart young people, keen-eyed older men and women, resolute in their search for the promised land, leaders, not followers, in the march for independence. As long as the low rates last, the tide sets in strongly, and when these lapse, there seems to be a lull until the prices for transportation drop again. A talk with one of the men Just ar rived disclosed the fact that he was a farmer from near Kansas City. Ho., who had come out here following a .trip to Oregon by his brother-in-law. The brother-in-law had come on an excursion and found a location that promised well, settled, and brought his family on. The change in climatic and living conditions generally had made him an Oregon enthusiast, and the present arrival said he had brought out five of his old neighbors The Willamette Valley is getting si large quota of the new arrivals from W Ask your doctor all alcoholic Sarsaparilla.

CO., Manufacturing Chemist Lowell, Mass. the fact that these newcomers figure on a big central market as a point near which it is desirable to locate, if possible. With Portland close at hand, they figure, especially the men who are buying small farms, there will be an advance in values, as well as a steady demand for farm produce. They are investing not only from the basis of a percentage on crops to be raised, but from a basis of speculation in the advancement of- real estate. Land Values Increase. The significance of this can be realized when it appears that in sev eral localities near Portland where land could be had two years ago for ?40 an acre, there is none to be had now under J200 an aero. It is true that the exploitation of electric lines has in many places give values a sud den boost," but the general values of land everywhere have been greatly enhanced in every direction anywhere near Portland, and all through the Willamette Valley. The railroad officials say that the travel is not only constantly increas ing on the colonist rates, but that the class and importance of these new ar rivals is improving rapidly. They fig ure that the railroad business for this year will not only be better than last year, but will exceed that of any other year for many years past. It is not a case of sporadic travel, but a steady coming of crowded trains and a con stant scattering by the tourists to near-by points when the trains . get into Portland. Very few. stop in the city from these tourist trains, unless to look around a little. They have their destination already determined on, and are pouring into the farm dis tricts or into the fruit belts, and mak ing Immediate preparations to settle and grow up with the country. Men dealing in farm lands say it would be to the advantage of the state and to the railroads if a colonist rate could be furnished to every bona fide contemplative settler wishing to come to the Pacific Northwest at any time of the year he chose to come. These tickets, they say, could be made a one way passage only, and at the regular tourist or colonization rate, and an affidavit 'required which would insure the purchase only by genuine home seekers. The genius of the railroad men could meet the necessities of this phase of transportation, they point out, and the state and the companies would both profit by it.

My Special Treatment The vast multitudes of men who have taken my treatment have not been disappointed. " They know that I do not promise more than 1 perform. To them I have actually illus trated in the cure of their 'own cases the truth of what I claim, namely, that mv treat ment is as certain to cure as it is that the patient engages my services and follows my directions. My success is due not alone to education, experience, skill and scientific equipment, but to the fact that I limit my study and practice strictly to diseases and weaknesses of men. To male maladies alone I have earnestly and exclusively devoted 25 years of my life anc on them all my facul ties are concentrated. MY TREATMENT FOR WEAKNESS. Functional derangement, such as- premature loss of strength, etc., is neither a "weakness" nor a disease. It is a symptom of prostatic disorder. To stimulate activity by the use of powerful tonics is an easv matter, but such results are merely teniporarv drug ef fects. Most doctors treat "weakness" in this manner because they do not know how to cure the real cause of the derangement. I am the only physician emploving scientific and successful methods. My treatment is a local one entirely and corrects everv abnor mal condition of that vital center, the pros tate gland. My cures are real cures and are permanent.
