HIGHWAYS ARE TORN UP Company Is Icmrln- Station Agree ments and Ttcruses to C.lxe Fare or 8 Cents as Is Speci fied In Oram. Troubles for the Vnltrd nmiwnvs are multiplying, out of alleged breaches of faith with the Multnomah County Court residents and propert y-owners of I.inn fm and persons who claim station con cessions from the rallway rompnnv for grants of right of way. The company has refused to give a B-cont fare to I-innton and has otherwise failed to keep its franchise agreement with the oimty court in restoring the St. "h 'r?ad nnd the M"'lam road, which it has greatly damaged.

TRAFFIC RRKAKS RECORDS Kimrmons Amount or Passenger Business Handled Through City. . Passenger traffic both local and trans continental, during the month of June, was unprecedented for this season of the year, report the different railroad sys tems entering Portland. The volume of business handled exceeded that during the Lewis and Clark Exposition, when the previous high record was established Definite figures as to the actual number or passengers served will not be avail able until later In the month, but It is known that all previous records have been beaten. Particularly heavy is the passenger business on the Shasta route of the Southern Paclnc. It exceeds all former Pad tie Coast records. For Instance, the Southern Paclnc in the operation of Its Shasta Limited is handling daily BOO through passengers from San Francisco to Portland. The movement of passen gers from this city south, via San Fran cisco. I.s not as heavy, but it exceeds all former record The same activity is reported bv the Hill lines. It Is admitted that the heavy travel Is due in part to the Alaska-. u-kon-Paeliio Exposition, hut the figures as to local passenger business bear out the reports that the volume of passenger business was never heavier. The accom modations of prartica!ly every Northern Pacific train operating between. Portland and Seattle are exhausted, and It is not unusual for reservations to be made days in advance. With the advent of the vacation sea son, which opened up actively yesterday, local passenger business will experience a substantial increase during the ensuing two months. Travel to the beach resorts promises to surpass ail previous marks. SELLWDOD GETS OFFICE SIBPOSTOFFICE IS RESTORED. XEW SUPERINTENDENT. O. H. Wallberg Will Have Charge of Station, Which Is to Be Opened on August I. Aiwust 1 the citizens of Sellwood will have their suhpostoffice hack. It will be In charge of O. H. Wallberg as super intendent. T. M. Donauch. president of H. AVnllbere, SellTvoods IVew I'oKtof flee Superintendent. the Sellwood Board of Trade, yesterday received a telegram from Senator George Fl Chamberlain from Washington an nouncing that the order for the restora tion of the office had been Issued and would go Into effect August 1. Three years ago the suhpostoffice was removed from Sellwood to the Brooklyn office on Mllwaukie street. nearly two miles away, and mail has been de livered from there ever since, with its attendant delays. There will be three car riers to start with, but provision will be made by Mr. Wallberg for an addi tional carrier. Mr. Donaugh said yester day that the restoration of the office is a great gain for that suburb, as the de livery of the mall from the Brooklyn station has never been entirely satisfac tory, owing to delays in getting the mall from so great a distance. Mail deposited ln the boxes in Sellwood at 4 P. M. after the carriers have made their first round ln the afternoon lays over until 12 o'clock the next day and on Saturday letters remain ln the boxes until Monday. Res toration of the office means that this delay will be done away with, besides business men of Sellwood may have their lock boxes and get their mall Sunday. The new suhpostoffice will be located In a room in the bank building on East Thirteenth street and Umatilla avenue, where it will be convenient for the public. Mr. Wallberg. appointed superintendent of the office, has been a resident of Sell wood for 21 years, and his appointment seems to give general satisfaction. It was through the efforts of the Sellwood Board of Trade and the assistance of Postmaster "Young that the office will be restored. WANTS ACTION ON SEWER Seventh Ward Club Condemns Delay In Inspecting Big Conduit. That the Brooklyn sewer system should be inspected and accepted at once, if found properly constructed, was the sen timent expressed at the meeflng last night of the Seventh Ward Improvement League, held In the hall on Mllwaukie and Powell streets. L. E.

Meals will be served this season on the dining car plan and the steward's department is under the supervision of a man from the railroad end of the company. The Potter will sail daily except Saturday and Sunday at 8:30 o'clock ln the morn ing. Clatsop beach traffic has not opened up as brisk as last year. The first through Saturday train on the line of the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad left Portland last Saturday, but the through travel was not nearly as heavy as was expected. This is largely due to the weather conditions which pre vailed during the last week ln June. Cold weather has held the beach busi ness in check. After the Fourth the railroad people look for a rush ln beach traffic. CAPTAIN EI.LICOT IN CHARGE Pond Turns Over Lighthouse In spector's Orrice to Successor. Captain Pond. U. S.

"" r0:lll '8-- ANDREW KAN'S LIFE STORY Says Chinese May Be Converted to Christianity and Be Sincere. T heTi,15, June S0 (To the Editor.) I beg to allow me the nnir. ,,,., . ' ?of,ry,I"nlon and ln,wer yur editorial' the Chinese, or Oriental people cannot be minVderd X ,r"hrlsanlty. forP the Oriental mind and spirit are as God or nature made them, or all professions of conversion are tor temporary purposes with calculated ad vantage and so on. I must admit it 1. very true in some Instances appear as mis directed or misguided by Its management on one side while on the opposite side the term heathens very easily can be understood mostly away from home or call helpless people It is very natural they cannot help themselves or the respect of self control. This Is not all the Chinaman to be blamed but the stronger side should be more care ful to keep the teachers well behaved and act religiously toward them. The Church and Mission Is not supposed to be held re sponsible for any Indecent thing that oc curs with a person or persons either Chinese or any other nationality should be dis graced. It is like thU If anyone got hurt by Jumping otr the train while it was running at great speed he has himself to look out for. I am of the opinion it Is far better for a Chinese man with a white woman as re ligious teacher than for those young people who spend their time ln public dance halls. Mr. Editor ought to take a trip to the Orient and Investigate more thoroughly Chinese converts ln their own country and learn how much faith they have to em brace Christianity and believe ln our Lord Jeaus Christ as their Saviour. I know hun dreds of my Chinese christian friends, es pecially those In OMna, who work volun tarily among their own people following our Master's teachings like all the apostles to preach the Gospel to all creatures, and bap tizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Most all the large town, and villages in the province, of Canton they have goBpel meeting by the natives. Do they have white women there? Certainly not. All professions of conversion are for tem porary purposes with calculated advan tage. Now, take for example of one. I have been converted to the Episcopal Church since 1877. After my conversion I rave been working hard for my honest living before I started ln the commercial world with a few hundred dollar, capital. I worked hard and fought with the world like a decisive battle, on every ground. I supported my church and mission and I preached many years in the mission and converted many with Christian Influence. I thank the Lord I did not try to hide away the talents the Lord gave me but used them with the best of my knowledge and with great success, always remembering what St. Paul says: "Herein do I exercise myself to have alway. a conscience void of offense toward God and toward man." Yet I was much urged by Christian brethren and friends to go back and help the Chris tian work among our own people. This 1. to .how Mr. Editor makes a mistake of Judgment sometimes like the so-called heathen class. Further. I will say a few line. more, which I believe that the Kingdom of Heaven Is nearer to Chinamen than Infidel, of other nationality in the world. Chinamen, as well as others, need to join with the Salvation Army and not be ashamed to say loud hallelujahs and praise the Lord. There Is nothing more beautiful than Christ's doc trine, which teaches us not to be selfish. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend." I predict before another century will pass that China will turn into one of the strong est nation, in the world, a. China ha. more temple, and worship hall, than any other JULY 2, 1909. MEN Scientific Treatment My success has come as a reward of ability, and honest, earnest and scientific application of thorough understanding. There is nnt another physician or specialist anywhere who treats men's diseases as T treat them. This i.s a fact that should be duly considered by those who have re peatedly been disappointed in their efforts to obtain a cure. In no other branch of practice has medical science so lajrged and the forms of treatment now com monly employed among the pro fession are largely based upon theories that have been handed down through cenerations of doc tors. An evidence of this is tho prevalent inability to successfully cope with several of those ail ments peculiar to men. r - i" j ...... ... ii-m&r-ti in my own . . ...... j muU Arv, MDsoiuieiy rreeb. and pure.

HAT BUILD RESERVOIRS WILCOX WOULD CONSTRUCT TWO AT MOUNT TABOK. New Member of Water Board Favors Immediate Increase of Storage Facilities. Immediate construction of two large reservoirs at Mount Tabor will be the first work undertaken by the Water Board. If Theodore B. Wilcox has his way about it. He so expressed himself at a meeting of the Water Board, held yesterday morning, and at which he attended for the first time ln his offi cial capacity. He was named for the vacancy made a week ago by the resig nation of Dr. C. H. Raffety, qualified at 10 A. M. yesterday and entered upon his duties at once. He will probably be chairman of the Board, or at least will direct Its affairs very largely, and he took a decided stand for quick dispatch of business by the Board. Both he and Mayor Simon, who presided, expressed a doubt as to the wisdom of Installing a complete meter system, and this mat ter will be considered very thoroughly by them before July 12, the date upon which bids for 6000 meters will be opened. James D. Hart and Judge G. W. Allen, appointees of ex-Mayor Lane, called upon Mayor Simon just before the meeting of the Board yesterday morning and ten dered their resignations. The Mayor has not accepted them as yet. R. B. Lam son did not tender his resignation, as he will remain with the Board. It is probable that Messrs. Allen and Hart S. I S.

Pretty nearly every dis ease that afflicts humanity Is largely due to Indigestion; at least. Indiges tion Is the beginning of the trouble. The only way to restore health Is to remove indigestion with Kodol. Every tablespoonful digests 2 pounds of food. Everyone knows that people must eat to live, and if they would eat plain food ln moderation, there would be little need for doctors and drug Stores; but all of us occasionally, and many of . us constantly, eat not only too much, but swallow rich food that the stomach cannot digest. The food ferments, gas fills the stomach, and undigested lumps of food harden and the lining of the stomach becomes inflamed. That's where chronic and nervous dyspepsia comes in. Now what Is to be done? Simply this give the stomach rest; help it to do Its work. The only sure way is Kodol. This Is true because Kodol Is the only preparation that supplies the same di gestive juices that are found ln a healthy, vigorous stomach. Just as soon as Kodol goes down to the undi gested food, lt starts proper digestion at once and away go the distress and pain. Our Guarantee: Get a dollar "i6 Kodoj. If you are not bene fitedthe druggist will at once return your money. Don't hesitate; any drug gist will sell you Kodol on these terms. The dollar bottle contains 2V times as much as the 50c bottle. Kodol Is prepared ln the laboratories of R c DeWltt & Co.. Chicago. C.
