Mayor Lane declared yesterday there
was not the slightest danger of a water

ficient pressure had been generated to
blow out the packing In one of the Joints
of the feed plpe.
"The three pumps at the Palatine Hill
station," said .Mayor Lane, In discussing
the situation, "have a combined maxi
mum capacity of 20,000.000 gallons every
24 hours, while at this season of the
rear the entire West Side requires only
from 7,000,000 to 10.000.000 gallons daily.
Should one of these pumps give out. there
would still be two left, and even should
one of the feed pipes go back on us we
still have another. There Is an abun
dance of water to meet all purposes, but
at the same time all users should not be
wasteful. The gauge In the water de
partment office today registered from 60
to 66 pounds pressure, while the normal
pressure with the Bull Run service was
only 70 pounds. There Is no occasion for
any alarm on the part of property-owners
or business men. The situation Is
unfortunate, because of the Inconvenience
entailed and the necessity of resorting
to the Willamette River as a source of
supply, but the trouble will be remedied
Just as soon as possible.

Ir. Yenny Says There la Danger in
Standing Water.
Dr. R. C. Yenney, secretary of the State
Board of Health, said last nUrht that a
very serious menace to the health of the
city threatens. He says the greatest
danger is from typhoid fever, as contam
inated water is the most prolific source of
sprend of this disease. He said that the
only safety lies In boiling the water be
fore use. both for drinking purposes and
In the cleaning of vegetables and other
urtlL'lfs of food.
If river water is to be distributed Dr.
Yenney strongly advised that public foun
tains be closed until danger is past. He
feared that after water had been let Into
the city system there would be a number
of dead ends left where disease germs
would he collected, and these would multl.
ply to a marvelous extent. In Dr.
Vcnney'8 opinion there Is more danger
to the health of the people In using water
collected in reservoirs than In that taken
direct from the river, for the reason that
germs multiply in stagnant water more
rapidly than in running water. He said
that If typhoid breaks out In this com

EPIDEMIC OF TTJBERCTJIiOSIS
AMONG OREGON POULTRY.
Secretary Yenney of Stat Board of
Health Says Serious Spread of
Disease Threatened.
According to reports received by Dr.
R. C. Yenney, secretary of the State
Board of Health, there threatens to be
a serious spread of tuberculosis arnotin
poultry flocks of the state.
Dr. S. W. McClure. chief of the Stata
Bureau of Animal Industry, advises Dr.
Yenney that a flock of 59 chickens
bought at Eugene and taken to Forest
Grove was found to be affected with
the disease and that 16 died at last
report. He estimates that 80 per cent
of the flock was affected. Dr. McClure
reported In addition that a large flock
of chickens at Pendleton was found to
be affected with tuberculosis, but no
connection had been established be
tween the two districts affected. At
Pendleton it was found that the disease
had attacked turkeys In an adjoining
field and also pigs had been seized
with the disease after eating dead
chickens and turkeys. '
Dr. Yenney said yesterday that the
fact of the disease being communicable
to human beings from affected fowls
had not been fully established, but the
pigs taking the disease from having
eaten the affected fowls Is significant.
Dissection has demonstrated that the
lesions caused by the disease in fowls
are Identical to those In human beings.
There is no doubt expressed that the
disease spreads rapidly after attacking
a flock of chickens, and the medical
authorities advise that these flocks be
promptly exterminated and premises
occupied by them be thoroughly ster
ilized. One point that has come out is that
the family owning the poultry had
some cases of consumption, and the
natural inference Is that the disease
In some manner was communicated to
the fowls.
Under the new law the State Board
of Health Is to have a state veteri
narian assigned to it In June, whose
work In conjunction with the board Is
expected to produce good results In
stamping out menaces to the public
health from diseases in animals.
PORTLAND SURPRISES HIM
President of Aetna Insurance Com
pany Comments on City's Growth.
After completing his first tour of the
city after 13 years. TV. B. Clarke, presi
dent of the Aetna Insurance Company, of
New York, said last night that Portland
had grown almost beyond recognition.
The city has grown so substantial, said
Mr. Clarke, that the Portland and Oregon
securities were considered among the
most valuable of the company's assets.
The Aetna Insurance Company holds
150.000 of Portland bonds and. although
under the new state law it would be pos
sible for the company to reduce Its se
curities deposited with the state to the
new limit of J26.000, the company has no
Intention of reducing this amount or of
withdrawing the securities.
"While the Aetna Company does not
lend money." said Mr. Clarke. "I act also
for another company which places out
sums on first-class mortgages, and I can
say that In no city are the securities
valued more highly than they are in
Portland."
Mr. Clarke is said to be the pioneer of
those who insisted that insurance com
panies, particularly those dealing with
fire losses, must have an available surplus
In cash or In very easily realizable securl-
OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY,
ties. Mr. Clarke declares that the early
dividends of his company were laid away
In this manner In order to place the con
cern on a sound financial basis. That
this was the means that enabled the
company to pay Its San Francisco losses
without any discount was a particular
point raised. It was a matter of pure
honesty, contended Mr. Clarke, for the
payment of losses so promptly has been
a dead loss and has not meant anything
to the company In either advertising its
resources or In any other manner.
Mr. Clarke leaves today for Seattle and
Puget Sound points.
MORE CATTLE ARE NEEDED
Tom Richardson Returns From Trip
Through Valley.
Tom Richardson, manager of the Port
land Commercial Club, returned Sunday
from a general boosting and development
trip through the "Willamette Valley and
Southern Oregon. Mr. Richardson said
the experience had been of Immense
value and he had never felt so forcibly
Impressed with the fact that if Portland
wants to keep the various packing plants
In the city. It Is of imperative necessity
that hog and cattle-ralslng be taken up
on a large scale. "Why," said Mr. Rlch
ardoson, "there Is not one-twentieth of
the hogs and cattle raised In Oregon that
the packers will require.
"I was greatly Impressed with the way
In which people are spreading over the
state. It used to be said the new settlers
stayed right here In Portland, but the
new settler is doing no such thing. You
will find him In the country, where the
big farms have been cut up.
"The 'home spirit' Is getting hold of
the cities. They are embarking on a
series of park projects. The women are
getting hold of things and are Insisting
that the cities must be polished up for
the stranger to see them at their best.
At the Central Point development mee
lng, we had delegates from. Medford,
Grants Pass, Ashland and Jacksonville.
If people down here Intend to have the
advantage of these cities tributary to
Portland, they must do something for
them. I am strongly in favor of the
newspapers featuring daily the amount
of development work that Is going on."
BONDING COMPANY ENTERS
Fidelity & Deposit, of Maryland, Is
Now in Local Field.
With the entrance into the local
bonding field of the Fidelity & Deposit
Company of Maryland, the 68 concerns
handling fire insurance business will
have two competitive Maryland bond
ing concerns anxious for their business,
under the recent state law requiring a
bond of $25,000 from every company
handling fire Insurance business.
The present bonding concerns are,
with one exception, unable to handle
the Are Insurance bonds, by reason of
their New York charter, and the en
trance of the Fidelity Company has
removed the fear of several of the
companies that they would be com
pelled to furnish cash bonds.
Edwin Warfleld, ex-Governor of Mary
land, Is president of the concern, and W.
J. Clemens is the local general agent.
Mr. Clemens said the concern Is the
strongest financially in the world, that
Its resources are $6,000,000 and that It
was established In 1890. Mr. Clemens
added that the first bond to be written
was a contractor's bond In the case of
the new Sellwood sewer. Tbls bond
was for $81,000. The company proposes
to handle every variety of bonding
business, which will be under the
charge of W. J. Lyons.
PUT LOGS INTO STORAGE
Camps May Close Down Until Better
Prices Obtain:
That there Is to be no cut In prices of
logs In spite of the slow market and the
uncertainty due to the tariff revision Is
evident from the remarks of a local
dealer yesterday. Rather than continue
the sale of logs under the present unfa
vorable conditions, dealers are Inclined
to favor the plan to shut down their log
ging camps until the market improves.
In speaking of the question of the log
market yesterday, H. C. Clair, of the
Clark County Timber Company, said:
"I have heard many loggers express
themselves as ready to shut down If
prices did not Improve, which would be
quite the natural thing to do. If the
merchant has butter to sell and can't
get what It cost and a reasonable profit,
he puts It In cold storage and waits a
while. We have a large storage pond
for logs and expect to put some in there
and then shut down as long as is neces
sary to clean up the accumulation. Our
prices are Just the same as they have
been for several, months past and we
have no accumulation at present to speak
of, except quite a' quantity of cedar,
which does not move very rapidly be
cause of the bad condition of the shingle
market."

CHILDREN TO MARCH
All Over 12 May Enter Rose
Festival Parade.
WITTENBERG DECIDES VOTE
Some Opposition Develops and Roll
call Is Tie $30,000 Offered tor
Block in Stephens Addition.
Grounds to Be Beautified.
The Board of Education yesterday after
noon voted, three to two. In favor of
granting permission to the pupils of the
city schools over the age of 12 years to
march In a parade during the Rose Festi
val In June. Chairman Herman Witten
berg cast the deciding vote, although he
was not particularly in sympathy with
the idea of the directors participating in
SI autnrlxatlon. He gave it as his
belief that the Board has no power to or
der the children out for such an occasion.
He and Director J. v. Beach had several
verbal clashes over the matter, during
which Directors I. N. Fleischner and Mrs.
w- S4tton took part. Both the latter
were opposed to the feature.
"Let's pass this matter over for 80 days,"
suggested Chairman Wittenberg, when
the request of President Hoyt, of the Rose
Festival, came up for consideration. "That
will give ample time for the drilling, If
we Intend to let the children march, and
there's no use In taking it under consid
eration now."
"I do not believe in postponing it," re
plied Director Beach. "If we are going
to do anything about It, let's do It now,
and have It settled; to postpone It Is Just
to fool along with It, and It Is not the
way to treat the Rose Festival people."
"Well, it's up to you, then," retorted
Mr. Wittenberg. "What Is your pleasure V
"If you would leave It to a vote of the
children, 'they would vote to marori." re
plied Mr. Beach. "There is no doubt of
that, and I favor the parade."
"I regard It as a hobby," said Mr. Wit
tenberg. "I am not In favor of the children's pa
rade at all." said Director Fleischner,
and shall vote against it."
"It Interferes with the studies, and I do
not want to see It done," was the com
ment of Mrs. Sitton.
Director Beach then moved that the
Board sanction all children over the age
of 12 years marching In the parade, and a
rollcall was asked for. with the result that
Directors Beach and Campbell voted In
favor of the proposition, and Directors
Fleischner and Sitton voted against it. Di
rector Wittenberg then cast the deciding
vote.
An offer of $30,000 was reported for the
block owned by the school district In
Stephens Addition, and the matter was
referred to the building committee for
consideration. This property was left to
the Board a long time ago, and has grown
in value. It is covered with, small cot
tages. The question of parking the grounds
around the public schools was brought up
by a communication from Superintendent
Mische, representing the Park Board. Mr.
Mische waa also present to speak on the
subject. He said he regards the school
grounds as being under the control of the
Park Board, according to the charter.

directors wanltari that -.-Ill J -1 1 -i.

TEACHER'S REQUEST PUZZLE
Board Members Couldn't See "Why
Air Compressor "Was "Wanted.
When Miss Jane Stearns, teacher of
physical geography in the Washington
High School, made application to the
Board of Education for an air compressor,
she little dreamed what a storm it would
stir up m the session of the staid Direct
ors. It was not a hot-air machine she
wanted, but simply a contrivance In
vented by a budding genius for the man
ufacture of miniature blizzards and ama
teur cyclones. And at that, the appll
catkm was denied. But there Is a
reason.
"What on earth does the woman want
with an air compressor?" was the query
of Chairman Wittenberg, who was pre
siding yesterday afternoon at the meet
ing of the Board of Education, when the
application was made In writing.
"Why, she wants something with which
to make blizzards and cyclones," an
swered Director I. N. Fleischner. through
whom the application was made.
Chairman Wittenberg gave a shiver,
and glanced around, making a careful
observation of the skies through an open
window. He looked cold, and his troubled

SIGNERS NOT REGISTERED
Initiative Petitions Now on File May
Be Afrected.
In checking over the nominating and
initiative petitions that have been filed
in the City Auditor's office In connec
tion with the coming city election It has
been discovered that on some of these
petitions fully 60 per cent of the signers
are not qualified legal voters. It is
specifically provided In the direct pri
mary law that It Is a felony for any
voter who has not Qualified by register
ing to sign any Initiative or nominating
petition Several petitions have been
found In which at least half of the
signers are not registered voters.
This indicates that a large percent
age of the voters have not registered
and qualified to participate In the ap
proaching primary election. May 8 " said
George S. Shepherd last night. "The
registration books for the primary elec
tion will close next Thursday, April 15.
The District Attorney Is Inclined to be
lenient In the matter and has decided
that all such non-registered voters who
have signed such petitions, and shall
register before the books close Thurs
day will be considered to have been
registered when they signed."
There is great danger that because of
the Irregular signing of these petitions
by voters who were not registered, many
of the petitions may be Invalidated. Sig
natures of unregistered voters cannot
be counted in computing the total num
ber of necessary signatures so that if
when the illegal signatures have been
eliminated there to t . v.

Five Years
of Heart Trouble Cured by
Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy
"Before I began taking Dr.
Miles' Heart Remedy I had been
suffering from heart trouble for
over five years. I had pains in
my left side, and under my
shoulder blade, could not sleeo
j on the left side, and was so short
of breath the least exertion
would bring on the most distress
ing palpitation. I had scarcely
taken a half bottle of the Heart
Remedy before I could see a
marked change in my condition.
When I had taken six bottles I
was cured."
MRS. C. C. GORKEY,
Northfield, Va.
If there is fluttering or palpi
tation it is an indication of a
weakness of the nerves and mus
cles of the heart. It is not neces
sarily diseased just weak from
over-work. The heart may be
weak just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs. You
can make a weak heart strong
by taking Dr. Miles Heart Rem
edy. Get a bottle from your
druggist, take it according to di
rections, and if it does not bene
fit he will return your money.
