REPORTS SHOW UP WELL
-
Much Satisfaction Expressed "at
Last Night's . Meeting of Ex
. ecutive Committees Over
Work Being Done.
Much satisfaction was expressed at the
meeting last night by' members of the
executive committee of the Portland
Commercial Club over the reports
which were rendered by chairmen of 15
soliciting committees. The returns made
by these gentlemen showed that the
movement has the support of practically
every firm that has been approached.
Those In charge are confident that the
J100.000 fund will be raised without serious
difficulty or delay.
la the informal discussion which fol
lowed the rendering of reports, many in
teresting suggestions were made regard
ing the methods to be followed under the
enlarged plan of publicity work. The
value of the press bureau was discussed
O t lAncrtli 11 nrna 1 . i .
j press bureau system in use by Spokane
im omiuB is one or tne most valuable
methods of advertising. The suggestion
was also made that articles descriptive
of this section, if written by a thoroughly
able writer and illustrated by character
istic scenes and places would arouse in
terest in the state and its resources. B.
G. Hughes was of the opinion that the
best means of bringing the state and its
resources )i.fr,-rt tha . i T - .
-" ' i v. iv, nits XciSL
was by high-grade literature and con-
oyiuuuuB aavertisements in publications
of the widest circulation and best class.
It was the quality of advertising litera
ture that counted, he believed, not the
quantity. Flooding the. would-be home
seeker with pamphlets and booklets
would tend to discourage rather than aid
him.
Another matter which was brought up
at last night's mSeting was the necessity
of maintaining an information bureau at
the station. It was the opinion of many
that the colonists arriving here would
have reason to find fault with a system
of publicity whtcn Induces people to come
to the state and does not provide further
and .more explicit information at the sta
tion, thus allowing these strangers to fall
into the hands of self-seeking, land
agents.
There, will be another meeting of the
executive committee of the "500,000 Club"
Monday night, when It i hnn i, . . i. -
entire amount to be raised will be re-

Mr. Simon Levli Klin
Aide at the Inaugural Ball
Representing the state of Oregon
Mr Kline Is president of the Retail
Merchants' Association of Oregon, and
when on his trip took occasion to confer
with presidents of state organizations of
the East with reference to the meeting
of the National Retail Grocers" Associa
tion In Portland during the Seattle Ex
position. He said that In all probabil
ity there would be at least 1000 delegates
and visitors attracted by the low railroad
rate, on their way to the Seattle fair
beside the interest in the National Con
vention. The convention Is to meet the
first week in June with sessions held in
the Masonic Temple for four days. The
Oregon association has dropped the word
"grocers" in the title of the state or
ganization, but the National association
retains It.
Mr. Kline Is much pleased with the at
tention he received in the East on ac
count of being a representative of the
state in which he has lived for about 35
years, and said that Oregon Is recog
nized as never before as one of the prin
cipal states of the Union.

Ktlitor of Railway Age Surprised at

Ray Morris, managing editor of the

to look over the local railroad situation
He had hoped to meet Mr. O'Brien In the
idea of learning whether any of the rcent
railroad developments In the Northwest
were Harriman projects.
Mr. Morris expects to make an Inspec

point of view and is Interested in compar

Pacific Slope with those in Eastern
states. Mr. Morris expressed considerable
surprise that there were not more fac

going on in the city. '
"Why should you pay freight for 3000
miles on all your requirements?'" asked
Mr. Morris. "It seems to be fhaf vou

getting scarcer. Cauliflowers are
smaller and. cost 15 to 20 cents each.
French artichokes are good at 3 for
25 cents. Then there are our old
standbys, "the usual roots."
Rhubarb, pink and juicy, 3 pounds
for 25 cents, is particularly alluring
just now, raising visions of flaky pies,
both the "kivered" and "unklvered"
varieties, with refreshing acid sweet
ness. Deep English pies, with cream,
are also good yea, better for the
dyspeptic; and so are rhubarb "loaf"
and rhubarb "foot."
Tamarinds dry, of course at 25
cents a pound, are foreign visitors in
our markets. Besides making a re
freshing drink and an agreeable con
serve, they are pleasant additions to
curry or chutney. There are apples,
oranges, grape-fruit and bananas, with
prices unchanged; grapes, 60 cents a
pound; pears, 30 cents a dozen; pine
apples, 25 to 40 cents each, and alli
gator pears at 50 cents.
Strawberries? I didn't actually see
them yesterday, but there were good
ones at 25 cents earlier, and more were
expected by today.
Spring lamb Is in, sold only by the
quarter at present, the fore quarter
costing about $1.25 and the hind quar

20 to 25 cents; geese, 25 cents; squabs,
50 cents each; duck, when obtainable,
30 cents. The scarcity of ducks is
said to be the result of the Chinese
epicures' admiration for these charm
ing birds. .
As for fish, the list is even longer
than usual. Smelt is practically over,
but there remain to us striped bass, at
