Right of Way Sought Is Private '
Holding Rapid Construction of
Deschutes Road Is Promised,
narriman Active, Too.
Assured by the recent decision of
Judge Bean in the Federal Court that
It has definite and superior rights on
the Upper Deschutes Hiver for the
construction of a railroad Into Central
Oregon, the Oregon Trunk is now pro
ceeding to establish what it considers
an indisputable foothold on the lower
river. According to Judge C. H. Carey,
representing counsel for the Hill, road,
who -eturned yesterday from the
Deschutes country, the Oregon Trunk
expects within the next two weeks to
acquire absolute title to a right of
wav over the first 12 miles of its
projected road on the west side of the
' river. This property is owned by private
parties. Malcolm Moody, of The Dalles,
being one of the principal owners.
"We are proceeding actively wnn
preliminary construction work all
along the survey of our projected road,
beginning with a point about 12 miles
above the mouth of the Deschutes and
extending southerly for about 100
miles." said Judge Carey yesterday,
"except at such points on the lower
40 miles of the river where the sur
veys for the two roads conflict. A de
termination of these rights awaits the
determination of the courts. Our pur
pose is to construct a railroad into
Central Oregon, and that is what we
are proceeding to do. The road we
have projected will be completed and
placed in operation Just as rapidly as
men and money and the-permission of
the courts, covering disputed points,
will permit.
Tacit Permission Obtained.
"From the time we first projected
a railroad survey up the Deschutes we
had a tacit understanding with the
owners of private property for the
first 12 miles of the river that we
would be granted permission to con
struct a road over that property. The
granting of this right depended en
tirely on condition that we would not
interfere with contemplated water
power development projects near the
mouth of the river. The owners of this
property are Insisting that we build
our road at a height sufficient To per
mit of the construction of a H0-foot
dam and, while I am not authorized to
make the announcement officially, it is
more than probable that the terms of
the pending right of ways we are to
receive will provide for the construc
tion of our road, at such an elevation.
When these details have finally been
settled, which probably will he done
within a fortnight, we will be In a
position to commence construction
operations at the mouth of the river.
"For the present we are directing
our efforts towards the construction of
wagon roads leading to the canyon at
desirable points In the first 12 miles.
These undoubtedly will be completed
by the time the questions of right of
wav are adjusted.
"We are in earnest In our determina
tion to build a railroad into Central
Oregon. Such a road will be construct
ed just as rapidly as men and money
will enable us to do lt- We promise
the people of Oregon to give them a
demonstration of railroad building
such as will surpass all previous
records in the history of the West."
Harriman Also Active.
Activity in railroad construction on
the Deschutes, however, is not con
fined entirely to the Hill forces, ac
cording to reports . emanating from
the Harriman offices. It Is announced
by local representatives of the Harri
man system that the promoters of the
Deschutes Kailroad are equally active
with the Hill people in the work of
actually building a railroad into long
neglected Central Oregon. Confident 1
of possessing priority of rights on the
lower river, the Harriman officials de
clare they are proceeding with con
struction work all along their sur
veyed lines, save only at such points
as they are prohibited from occupying
by the injunction which was recently
continued InMavor of the Hill road by
Judge Bean.
Permanent offices for. the Oregon
Trunk have been secured on the fifth
floor of the Henry building at Fourth
and Oak streets. These offices will be
in charge of John F. Stevens, personal
representative of J. J. Hill, who owns
a controlling Interest in the property.
V. D. Williamson, president of the Ore
gon Trunk, is residing temporarily at
the Portland.
RAILWAY IS FORCED TO ACT
United Railways Laving Track on
Stark Between Second and Third.
Mayor Simon and members of the
street committee of the Executive
Board have won a notable victory in
the case of the United Railway Com
pany concerning Its track on Stark,
between Second and Third streets. Last
week the committee, backed by the
Mayor, notified the company's officials
to immediately lay the rails there, as
the city is about to improve the street
with hard-surface pavement. Yesterday
morning a large force of workmen be
gan putting in the track.
The streetcar company has for a
long time been using Third and Stark
streets as a terminal for its city end
of the Burlington line, although with
out a particular right to do so. Its
franchise calling for the' completion of
the track to Second street. Nothing
had been done for a long time toward
finishing this work and City Engineer
Morris asked - the Executive Board,
through the street committee, to de
liver an ultimatum. The committee
therefore authorized the City Auditor
to notify the company to proceed at
once, and Mayor Simon made a state
ment. In which he said that he would
not permit the company to tear up the
new pavement to put In tracks, and
that they would be In trouble if they
neglected to -lay them with the pro
posed improvement.

WHICH WRIGHT? A PUZZLE
Mrs. Carson Sot Sure Former Hus

Mrs. John I. Carson, who was reported
as having admittted that she had married
12 years ago in Omaha an Orville Wright,
who, she said, might possibly be Orville
Wright, the aviator, last night denied
some of the statements credited to her.
Mrs. Carson said lt Is true that she
married In Central City, Neb.-(not Oma
ha), an Orville Wright, but that she had
no idea whether her former husband
was the famous Orville Wright.
As. to the report that her son, Lester
Wright, resembles and has the mechani
cal talent of the aviator, Mrs. Carson
said she had sot noticed any such ten
dency in her boy and that to her knowl
edge he had not engaged In any of the
mechanical pursuits credited to him by
rumor.
A Flfh-Mtlk-Cow Yarn.
Elizabethtown (Ky.) News.
Tom Monin. near Nolin Station, has a
large spring branch which runs into No
lin. Near the mouth of this branch is a
favorite place for his cows to stand dur
ing hot days, where the water is' about
a foot deep. Wednesday they were at
their accustomed place. There had been
a very heavy rain at Hogdenville, and
above, and Nolin got suddenly very
muddy and began to raise rapidly. As ie
always the case when such rises come,
the lish seek clear water, and a great
many o'f them ran Into the mouth of Mr.
Monin's spring branch. The water was
literally alive with fish, but they did not
seem to frighten the cows the least bit.
Mr. Monln happened to be on the bank
about this time, and noticed a great com
motion fn the water. , He soon saw that
the branch was full of large fish. As he
stood there he witnessed a most remark
able occurrence. As the water rose on
the cows he saw the fish grab the udders
and milk them. He watched the perform
ance for some time, fascinated by the
novel sight. When the cows came out
they had been stripped dry by the fish.
Mr. Monin Is a perfectly reliable man and
entirely truthful and he tells this story
himself. He could not tell what kind of
fish they were, but we are satisfied they
were suckers.

RULES PASSED ON
Marking Law Interpreted by
Navigation Commissioner.
OPINION ON FRENCH CRAFT
Quarters Occnpled by Captain and
Crew Must Be Certified To and
Letter Carved In Woodwork.
Oil Paint on Steel Doors,
E. C. Chamberlain, Commissioner of
Navigation, has issued a ruling on the
proper marking of structures of French
vessels, set -aside for the use of the of
ficers and crew of such ships, which
have heretofore been assessed In addi
tion to the registered net tonnage of
such ships. The opinion of Commissioner
Chamberlain was received yesterday by
George. Taylor, of the shipping firm of
Taylor, Young & Co., and was in re
sponse to an inquiry made by Mr. Tay
lor to the Bureau of Navigation.
Considerable friction has been caused
by the assessment according to gross
tonnage instead of registered net ton
nage of French vessels entering the Co
lumbia River. In order that such craft
may obtain the reduction in tonnage,
certain requirements are necessary, and
these are plainly set forth in the letter
of Commissioner Chamberlam, addressed
to Mr. Taylor.
It is absolutely clear that all wooden
structures set apart for the use of the
captain and crew, the galley, storerooms
and lockers, must be marked as certified
to a specific use. The words must be
carved in the wood. In the matter of
the marking of steel doors, the commis
sioner falls to make any remarks beyond
the statement that plates will not do.
Until further instructions, lt Is to be pre
sumed that the words, painted In oil,
will be sufficient. The specific case
taken up by. Mr. Taylor was that of the
French ship Berengere.
The full text of Commissioner Cham
berlain's letter follows:
Referring to your letter of the 30th of
June last, this office advises you that lt
has obtained reports from the Collectors of
Customs at San Francisco and Port Towns
end, respectively, relative to the tonnage of
the French steamship Berengere you men
tion. In order to conform to the regulations,
auch -easels should carefully specify the use
of the spaces prescribed in the law, which,
on application, will be shown to you by the
Collector of Customs.
The bureau has considered your inquiry
regarding wooden structures:
"In case of wooden structures for cabins,
galley, captain's space, room for pallors and ,
such other structures that should be de
ducted from the gross measurement, sr that
cannot be used for cargo, will you allow the
same spaces to be deducted. If marked over
the entrances by a plate let into the wood
work In such shape that it cannot be re
moved without mutilation, or must the ship
have these spaces, "Certified for sea
men, etc.' absolutely carved in the wood
work?" .
The question Is answered in the negative.
The law plainly requires that the words
necessary be permanently cut in.
As regards your-hypothetical inquiry rel
ative to the marking of steel or metal struc
tures. thi bureau will consider the matter
should a case actually arise and be submit
ted in the usual manner with report from
the proper Collector of Customs.
The bureau notes your statement that In
the case of such structures lt Is almost im
possible to cut the marks. It may be stated
that the law makes no exception covering
such cases.
Referring to your statement mat ine pro
ceedings as to measurement should be ac
mrriin. to treatv .between the United states
and France relating to the matter, the bu
reau advises you that It tails to nna any
treaty between the United States and
France governing the measurement of ves
sels. A copy of this letter has been sent 10
the Collector or customs at Astoria wr ni
Information.
SCOW DWELLERS OX THE MOVE
Mayor Simon Pleased With Activity
of Harbormaster Speler.
Mayor Simon is greatly pleased
with the progress made by Harbor
master Speler regarding the scow
dwellers along the riverfront. Nearly
all of them have removed, many of
them taking their scows. The ap
pearance of the river on both sides is
much better than previously, as was
noted by the Mayor yesterday morning
when he accompanied Captain Speler to
Graham's boathouse at the foot of Mill
street to Inspect the new patrol launch
that is being completed there.
"I am very much pleased with the
manner in which this work has been
done," said the Mayor to Captain Speler.
'It makes a great improvement in the
appearance and safety of the harbor."
The Mayor was pleased with the trim
appearance of the new launch, which
is to be put into service on the river
in the near future. It will probably be
launched one week from tomorrow
afternoon. It la said to be the pret
tiest boat on the river, and will be
speedy. The Mayor and members of
the Executive Board and City Council
will be present when she is launched.
CONTRACT IS LET FOR TCG
Willamette Iron Works Will Build
Boat for $92,850.
At the meeting of the Port of Port
land Commission yesterday afternoon,
the contract for the building of a single
screw tug for service at the mouth of
the Columbia River was awarded to the
Willamette Iron & Steel Works of
Portland, this firm having submitted
the lowest id. There were only two
bids submitted, these being by the Wil
lamette Iron & Steel Works with a bid
of $92,350, and by the Moran Company,
of Seattle, with a bid of $98,700. The
specifications call for a tug 116 feet
long, 25 feet beam and 16 feet depth.
It is to be completed within nine months
from yesterday. The plans and specifi
cations call for a boat built along the
same general lines as the tug Wallula,
but larger all over.'

that old sores resist every form of local or external treatment, and even
return after being cut away, shows that back of them Is a morbid cause
which must be removed before a cure can rosult. Just as long as the

by purifying the blood. It removes every traue of impurity and taint from

From the full power of mature ability and consummate

range of experience in the best hospitals of the country my
practice has grown to double that of any specialist on the
Coast. For 31 years my. offices have been located at the
present address and praise from the army of men who have
been cured here during this time is a prize I hold higher
than mone3'. My success has, of course, called forth com
petition, but my competitors have utterly "failed to give
"something just as good" as a substitute for my treatment,
and substitution is always a poor makeshift, anyway. In
the low prices I make there is no sentiment the great
number of people I treat makes itvpossible and this plain
fact proposition is being found out every day by dozens of
thinking men who take time to investigate. Patients who
have been treated by me for
BLOOD POISON AND SKIN DISEASES
will vouch for the fact that I cured them, never to return,
after being disappointed and deceived so long by others that
thev thousrht there was no cure for them. No man on earth

recommendation to any man who will inquire. '
Men, Wake Up
A man pays more taxes to folly than any other in stitutirm ; and, a most peculiar attribute is failure of
the individual to profit by the experience of PAST follies.
While time hurries on, the man with follies lingers until his health is gone before he discovers that
delay and neglect have been the capsheaf of all his follies. Men, wake up and get the today habit of
doing things. Don 't let the cankerworm of delay ruin your health and destroy your prospects in life.
Nervous Ailments
Do you ever feel that you are not the man you once weref Do you feel tired in the morning and
easily exhausted! Is your back lame! Is your memory failing! Do you have difficulty in concentrating
your thoughts! Do you notice a loss of ambition! If you suffer from any or all of the above symptoms
you certainly do not desire to remain so. What you want, is to be made strong and vigorous mentally
as nature intended.
