CITY GOOD SECOND
Private Interests Scored for
Retarding Progress.
CIVIC INSTITUTE MEETS
Pr. Foulkes Presides at Session.
Building Inspector Lauds Ordi
nances for Portland's
Great Development.
That private interests opposed to public
(rood are the chief source of all diffi
culties met with In civic betterment, was
the .keynote of several addresses made
before the Civic Institute yesterday. The
meeting wa in charge of Kev. William
Hiram Foulkes. and the general subject
of standards of life was discussed.
G. B. Dobson. building inspector, spoke
1 of housing conditions in Portland. He
told of the rapidly developing and largely
growing building Interests and the gigan
tic stride made by the city. This, lie
said, was greatly due to ordinances,
among which the act limiting frame
bulldinfrs to three stories and another
which requires four-story hotels to 'be
lire- proof were paramount.
Miss K. C. Simmons, of the Art Museum,
followed with a most Interesting and in
structive address in standards In art. She
sroke of art a? harmony, dividing It into
three classes; beauty of line, mass of
light and mass of shade and their subtle
values and color.
J.H. Barbour, United States Inspector
'of Immigration, spoke on "Immigration,"
which subject, he said, was possibly
more remotely related to Portland's so
cial problems than any other which the
Civic Institute programme sets forth.
Mrs. Kmma B. Carroll gave an interest
ing paper on "Amusements, in General."
"Such cheap, badly constructed things
as we have In Portland are not worth
calling theaters." asserted Mrs. Carroll.
"We need a permanent orchestra, a first
class theater. We should not. however,
Wame the managers, but the public.
Amusement Is a test of character. As
far back as history, man has sought It,
but in Portland the term is synonymous
with frivolity, and not an clement of
growth."
INDICTMENTS ARE FOUND
Alleged Counterfeiters' Are Formally
Charged by Federal Grand Jury.
Among several true bills returned yes
terday by the Federal grand Jury were
three against alleged counterfeiters, two
of whom were caught in Portland, and a
third In Coos County. The two captured
here are Frank H. DevolU alias George
Weston, and Frank Watson. The latter
had in his possession, when captured.
Implements for coining counterfeit money.
There are two other counts against him,
one for passing worthless money and an
other for having counterfeit money In his
possession.
Devoll was Indicted for giving a worth
less coin to Mrs. I O. Porter on October
' 23. Floyd W. Avery, the third of the al
leged counterfeiters, is dr&rged with pass
ing a worthless coin, represented to be a
JW gold piece, on June 18, In Coos County.
Frank Johnson, an Indian belonging on
the Umatilla reservation, was Indicted
for stealing two horses from another In
dian. Chow Fat. alias Feck Kee. was Indicted

another Chinese, who arrived on the Port
land & Asiatic liner Arabia June 22.

ing before the grand Jury. Several true
hills were placed on the secret file until

DISTRICT IS BIGGEST YET
Jtose City Park Votes to Improve CS
Miles of Streets.
At a meeting of the Rose City Park
Improvement League Wednesday night it
was voted to create the largest district of
paved streets In the United States.
Twenty-eight miles of pavement Is to
be embraced in a district extending1
from East .Thirty-seventh street ,to
East Sixty-second street and from
Fremont street to the Barr road. A
petition will be circulated among the
residents of the district for the pur
pose of securing hltullthie pavement.
A sewer district was also demanded
for Rose City Park and plans will be
formulated to drain the district to Sul
livan's Gulch and to the river. A reso
lution was passed calling on the school
board to include in its estimate an
I eighth-grade school In the suburb with
a hope of bettering the present faclli
1 ties for educating the children In that
1 vicinity.
A committee was appointed to con
I f er with the Portland Railway. Light
& Power Company relative to an
agreement for widening Sandy Road
I to 80 feet from East Twenty-eighth
! street to the city limits, a distance of
i three miles. Heretofore the traction
j company protested against such ac
j tlon, but at the meeting last night
j plans were made whereby the com
I pany could lay double tracks and erect
i trolley poles In the center of the road
iwajr without the objection of the resl
! dents.
The various committees appointed
last night will report at a meeting to
be held next Tuesday evening.
TRUST PORT OF PORTLAND
History of That Important Commis
sion Which Built the Drydock.
PORTIyAN'D. XovI. (To the Editor.) I
notice in The Oregonlan today a report of
trie action taken by organised labor, protest
ing against the lease of the drydock by the
J'ort of Portland, in which the main. In fact,
the only reason organized labor assigns la
' that the lessee in the case of a leaee being
onsummated. would act derogatory to the
Interests of laboring men. This appears to
the writer a mere assumption, unwarranted
and a mr subterfuge. The probable truth
Is that his protest has been worked up in
a special quarter for selflrti purposes.
In order that many people now living In
our 'city and who foot the taxes necessary to
keep the drydock running, who have come to
our state and city In late years, may know
when and how this Port of Portland Commis
sion was created and why It owns a drydock.
It may not be amiss to give a small sketch of
the time and what led up to the creation of
the port commiseion.
In the late '80s the late Donald Macleay.
then president of the Board of Trade (the
predecessor of our present Chamber of Com
merce), appointed a committee to inquire into
T-est means to Insure a deeper draft of water
In the Columbia and Willamette Rivers, and
to taka measures to remedy any existing dif
ficulties. This committee consisted of Fi D.
McKee 'Captain J. A. Brown. Captain F. S.
: JHosworth and tha writer. A "tarpaulin mus
ter" was made among Front-street merchants
, and baskera, C. H. Lewis and W. a Ladd
subscribed 1500 each, and la all (6900 was
subscribed and collected.
We then chartered a steamship from tha O.
R. A N. Co. and. sluiced out St. Helen's bar.
This gave temporary relief. It was then de
cided, as no relief could fca obtained from
Congress, to go to our State Legislature for
further relief. The outcome was the Port
of Portland. The Port of Portland, however,
was thought to be only a temporary commis
sion at that time, tha consensus of opinion be
ing that tha Federal Government would take
over the work of deepening the rivers.
In the '80s our commerce Increased by leaps
and bounds, and aa a seaport we were not
well equipped to handle shipping when It ar
rived In port In a damaged condition; hence
there was great need for a drydock. and as
the want of a dock discriminated against all
the people In the State of Oregon, the people
of Portland went before the Legislature for
additional powers to the Port of Portland to
build a d.x-k. For this work special credit
Is due to the late Eills G. Hughes and also
the very able advocacy of the editor-ln-chlef of
The Orrgonlan.
The people of Portland, that is to say, the
taxpayers, have cheerfully paid their pro rata
until no:. yet now It becomes a question
whether the tlmevhas not arrived when some
thing else should be done, whether our delega
tion in Congress should not start in at once
and have the Government do Its duty By us
and take up the burden of clearing up our
waterways. Those of us who were interested
at the Inception of the Port of Portland move
ment, did not dream of It being continued
to this day. but thought at the time that
the general Government would surely come
to our relief. Of course until we do get the
relief needed we must continue to help our
selves hut we need not. at the same time, at
the suggestion or dictation of organised labnr.
keep up an eleemosynary Institution In the.
shape of a drydock. As city government, like
all government. Is only an experimental sci
ence, we must be ruled by what It teaches, and
It clearly teaches business methods.- All
method la economy, hence It will be good
business to lease the drydock. The Port of
Portland may be safely trusted to make a
business lease fully protecting the taxpayers,
who make It possible for ornlsed labor, to
papersarTnegessary

.CHICAGO. Nov. IS. Despite the absence of
any important bullish news, wheat was firm
almost the entire day today. Trading dur
ing muci of the time, however, was Inclined
to drag, owing to very meager offerings,
but In the final hour considerable activity de
veloped, numerous small shorts becoming ur
gent bidders, which resulted In an advance of
more than a cent from the low points for the
leading options. An advance of c at Liver
pool, said to have been due partly to reports
of labor distrubances at Buenos Ayres. and a
much smaller movement In the Northwest,
were the chief fsctors contributing to the ad
vance here. A falling off In the total pri
mary movement also hid a bullish effect. The
range for tha day on May trading, which op
tion was the most active, was between JI.04U.
l.0 and 11.05V The market closed at
the top. with the exception of May final fig
ures, which were Vc beow the best mark.
An Increased disposition by the country
dealers to soli com and the continued slack
ness of demand for the cash grain by Last
em shippers had a depressing effect on the
com market, which was heavy a large part
of the day. The late bulge In wheat, however,
stsrted covering by shorts, which resulted In
a firmer tone at the close. Final figures were
up c compared with yesterday's close.
Trailing in oats was exceedingly quiet and
the market clueed steady, a shade to He
h'Kher.

On February 18th, 1909, Mr. Swan wrote: "I am eighty-four years old,
and of late' have been using a little of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as a tonic
and body-builder, and find it far better-for me than any other. Even two
teaspoonfuls of yours in a little hot water has far better effect on me than
twice as much of any other kind, it gives me my old-time strength and
energy." .
On February 2-5th, 1909, Mrs. Swan wrote: "I am eighty-four and six
months old. anil had Grippe for six weeks or more, had chills and cough at
iiicht which were very weakening. When .1 had those r-pells my husband
would give me two teaspoonfuls of Duffy's Pnre Malt Whiskey hi a little hot
water and my cough would ease and I would go right to sleep unti morning
then get up and do my work, taking a little more as 1 needed it, and so I have
kept along until now I am well. Nothing I ever, took did me so much good
as Duffv's Pure Malt Whiskey. Nothing else -would break my chills and give
me a good night's rest. 1 can recommend it to all that are run down or need
toning up, especially the aged."
Duffy-'s P

MEN ONL
I have treated hundreds of men who had
long suffered a gradual decline of physical
andmental agony as a result of special ail
ments, and 'have been interested In noting the
marked general Improvement that follows a
thorough cure of the chief ailment. My suc
cess In curing difficult cases of long standing
has made ma the foremost specialist treating
men's ailments. This success Is duo to sev
eral things. It Is due to the study I have
given my specialty; to my having ascer
tained the exact nature of men's ailments,
and to the original, distinctive and thorough
ly scientific methods of treatment I employ.
To those In doubt as to their true condi
tion, who wish to avoid the serious results
that may follow neglect, I offer free con
, sultation and advice, either at my office or

of the few that have reached an Incurable
stage, I will not accept It for treatment, nor
will I urge my services upon any one. I treat
curable cases only, and cure all cases I treat.

ment I treat is thoroughly cured;
my patients have no relapses.

that the ailment will return in
its original form or worlT its way

tracted ailment is so trivial as to
warrant uncertain methods of
treatment, and I especially solicit
those cases that other doctors have
been unable to cure.

A LITTLE RED SPOT
Novel Experiment by W hich It May Be

A peculiar feature about poslam, the
new skin discovery, is that no one is
asked to buy it without first sending to
the Emergency Laboratories No. 32
West Twenty-fifth street. New Tork
City, for an experimental sample and
applying same to an affected part of
the skin, about the size of a silver
dollar. It will ciear the spot so treat
ed In twenty-four hours a remarkable
visual demonstration of Its powers.
While poslam has been mentioned
principally in connection with the cure
of eczema, the most stubborn of skin
diseases, it must be remembered that
when used for Itch, hives, pimples,
blotches, acne, itching feet, scaly scalp,
chafing: of infants and similar minor
skin troubles its action is all the more
pronounced, results being- seen after an
overnight application. As only a small
quantity of poslam Is necessary to cure
such cases, a special fifty-cent pack
age, usually sufficient, has been placed
on sale at the Skldmore Drug Co.,
