lutely fireproof, with a white enameled
trra cotta exterior. It will have eight

DAIRY HOME IS PLAN
Sauvies Island May Be Means
. of Furnishing Pure Milk.
UNHEALTHY COWS TABOOED'
Sanitary Place for Herds,.V!ere Xo
Diseased Aninuils liall Be Per
luitted to Hoani. Is Suggestion
Made to City of Portland.
Conversion of Sauvies Island into a sani
tary home for dairy htrds. wliere no un
healthy animal hall' be permitted to go,
is a plan that has been suggested by
Dr. F. W. McClure, Inspector in charge
of the United States" Bureau of Animal
Industry for Oregon, Washington and
Idaho, the purpose being to furnish for
Portland a chance to get milk free from
danger of tuberculosis.
Er. McClure made his suggestion, while
on a recent visit to Portland, to Dr.
Robert C. Yenney, secretary of the State
Board of Health, as well as to a num
ber of others who had expressed an in
terest in the protection of public health
from dangerous milk.
Dr. McClure's plan Is to have the Leg
islature pass a special act, providing that
the it-land shall lie made free from any
kind of diseased animiil. and that there
after every cow must have a clean bill
of health ..before she is placed on the
Island. ; "
. Island Contains 25,01)0 Acres.
Sttuvles Island contains about 25,009
acres,' according to a statement made at
the United States Surveyor-General's
office in this city, and eituated so near
Portland that transportation of milk from
it into the city would be convenient. It
is divided into several large individual
holdings. i
It is believed that the only practicable I
W3y to accomplish the plan suggested by '
Dr. Yenney, would be to get the land j
owners on the island to indorse it and I
to aid in getting the Legislature to make
the laws necessary for the future protec- I
tion of the dairy herds to be kept there.
"I am heartily In favor of the plan," '
said Dr. Yenney yesterday, "for I think
that it will not only give the people of
Portland a chance to get good milk, but
It will serve as an object lesson to dairy
men in other places, who will he inspired
to keep only healthy cows in order to
compete in the sale of milk.
Diseased Trees? Xo. W'liy Cows?
"You would never see the people at
Medford. for instance, permit a diseased
tree to be brought into their locality, for
tlie danger it would cause to their or
chards. I-'or the same reason dairymen
should form localities where their cows
can be free from the infection of diseased
animals."
As yet the plaji is simply a suggestion,
but there Is a feeling among those In
terested In It, that an attempt will be
made to have the matter properly laid
before the next session of the Legislature.

Captain E. S. Edwards, grand supreme

Universe, called that august body to or
der at 8 o'clock last night at the Perkins
Grill. The occasion was the annual ban
quet of the organization and was- fully
attended. Captain Edwards, as supreme
knocker, held the chair and all questions
were up to him for final adjudication.
The banquet proper was preoeded by a
burlesque, which occasioned much merri
ment. It was a severe shock to several
members, who had fasted for hours in
anticipation of a big feed at Captain
Edwards' expense.
Members were shown into a room at
the Perkins, the furniture of which con
sisted of a plain pine table and chairs.
From the chandelier varied colored rib
bons were festooned to chairs and each
guest was placed according to his na
tionality. The services opened by a
prayer dedicated to the Knockers by
Captain T. J. Macgenn read bv George
F. Fuller.
The menu was especially prepared to
suit the tastes of the members and was
prepared under the pysonal direction of
E. E. Lytic As translated fro the
French, it was as follows:
Menu for the Irish.
Potatoes -with Jackets on. nerved in large
iron pot. Salt In small heaps at each
place.. Buttermilk in wooden mugs. Xo

After M. J. Buckley had pronounced
benediction, adjournment was taken to
another room and the banquet proper was
served. Here the programme was re
versed and the Knockers regaled them
selves on viands succulent and beverages
cooling. The toasts were burlesques and
each member was called upon to speak
on a topic foreign to his daily affairs
and sphere of labor. The responses Were:

GAMP WORK IS HEU1
Y. M. C. A. to Extend Plans for
Railroad Laborers.
MAGAZINES ARE WANTED
Effect on Irrigation Projects Was to
Keduee Proportion of Gam
bling: and Drinking and
Help Men Save.
Word has come from W. H. Day, in
ternational , railroad secretary of the
Young Men's Christian Association, in
dicating that the work of the organi
zation among-the laborers' now building
two railroads into Central Oregon will
be made permanent. The Portland Y.
M. C. A. a week ago sent a large supply
of magazines to the construction camps,
but the new pan contemplates employ
ment of a secretary toa spend all his
time in working among the men in Des
chutes Canyon.
Mr. Day, writing from Chicago, says
that M. C. Long has been chosen to
take up this work and will - leave that
city for Portland January 3. It Js ex
pected that Mr. Long a few days later
will go to the Deschutes and will re
main there indefinitely, distributing mag
azines among the men, holding Informal
meetings In the construction camps and
probably establishing Y. M. C. A. head
quarters. More Magazines Wanted.
John Decker, -who took the first install
ment of magazines to the Deschutes dis
trict, returned to Portland yesterday. The
magazines, which weighed 1070 pounds,
were left at Grass Valley and Shaniko.
from where they will be hauled to the
camps in which the workmen are quar
tered. Mr. Day has requested the Port
land Y. M. C. A. to send out a large
quantity of magazines, in addition to
those already forwarded, so that they
may be available on arrival of Mr. Long.
For this reason the Y. M. C. A is anx
ious for the public to send in as many
publications as possible. They will be
received at the office in the X. M. C. A.
building. In cases where It is not con
venient to leave them there, the Y. M.
C. A. will send for them if those willing
to donate them will lephone the asso
ciation. This work will be in line with that
conducted by the Y. M. C. A. at Tieton
Canyon and Bumping Lake in the Gov
ernment irrigation projects, near North
Yakima. These are the first Federal
irrigation camps in which the Y. M. C.
A. has worked, and its efforts there have
been successful in every way, according
to a formal report Just received by the
Portland association.
Men's Habits Improved.
In both camps the Government pro
vided large tents for the Si . M. C. A.
workers.. Drinking and gambling were
practically stopped and the men depos
ited with the Y. M. C. A. secretaries
large portions of their earnings, much
of the money to be forwarded to their
families. Before the advent of the Y.
M. C. A. there practically all of the
money had been spent for liquor.
Charles H. Swlgart. Federal engineer
in charge of all of the Irrigation work
in Washington, said:
. "From my observations and 1 the re
ports that have been made to me, I am
of the opinion "that the Y. M. C. A. work
has been greatly appreciated by the la
borers and mechanics employed by the
Reclamation Service on the Tieton proj
ect: that the establishment of a reading
room and tent where evening entertain
ments and gatherings could be held was
of great benefit to the men and tended
to give us a higher class of labor than
we otherwise would have been able to
hold. The work at Bumping Lake has
been carried on nly during this sea
son, and my reports from there are rath
er meager. Still, on the whole. I be
lieve that this work has been success
ful and hope that we shall be able to
maintain Y. M. C. A. tents next sea
son." JUST AS WELL.

IAMES SELECTED BY CLERK
Method Ileclarr-d by Committee to
Violate Law List of Men Serving
as Professional Jurors tn Last
Year's Court Sessions.
Despite the expressed desire of the
jury committee of the Multnomah Bar
Association to bs present at tlie drawing
of the jury list for the State Circuit Court
in Multnomah County during lt10. and
the promise of the County Court to
notify the attorneys of the time when
these names would be drawn, th. entire
list of 2O00 names? has bcn drawn by
the County Court? order and was turned
over to County Judge Webster and Com
missioners Lightner and Barnes yester
day morning, the Bar Association" not
having bean notified. The Iis-t was drawn
from the personal property taxroll in
Assessor Sigiers office at the City Hall
by Mists May L. Chalmers, one of County
Clerk Fields' deputies. Mr. Fields said
last night he felt eure there had been
no "humbuggery" about the drawing of
the list, a the deputy clerk was told to
take a certain number of names at ran
dom from each page of the roll. Miss
Chalmers worked upon the list about a
week. Mr. Fields said the personal nron-
erty roll was used because many conk
residents are included upon the real prop
erty roll.
criticisms Made by Committee.
After 2000 names had been drawn, the
lifrt was carefully checked up with pre
vious jury lists in the County Clerk's
office, to see that no juror drawn lost
year was drawn again this year. The
names of city and county employes were
also checked off. There are now 1771
names on th-3 lift. This list may be
further pruned by the members of the
County Court. When this pruning pro
cess commences the members of the jury
committee of the Bar Association expect
to be present.
The jury committee points out that the
law requires the County Court, not the
County Clerk, to make the jury list from
the assessment roll, and that the County
Clerk must certify the list within ten
days. It is also pointed out that the
law requires the drawing of 600 names,
not 2000.
Further than this, the committee com
plains that the County Court sometimes
"dumps'" into the new jury list from 400
to 500 Jurors left over from the pre
vious year. It objects to tlie names
being drawn from the personal property
roll, saying it wants' citizens on the
jury, not "chairwarmers."
Seqtidn 970 County- Court to ' make
jury list: The Countv Court of each
county shall, at the first term of each
year, or In case of omission or neglect
to do so. then at the following term,
make from the last preceding assess
ment roll of the county a list, de
nominated the jury list, containing the
names of persons to serve as grand
and " trial jurors until the following
year, or new lists be made.
Section 971 Names to --be selected
only of those qualified and liable: In
preparing the jury list, the names of
those persons only must be selected
who are i known or believed to be
possessed .. of the quallf iisttions pre
scribed in Section 965, and not en
titled to exemption as provided in Sec
tion 966.'
Section 966 exempts attorneys, minis
ters, teachers, physicians. Federal em
ployes and judicial or civil officers.
Section 965 provides 'that "no person
shall be summoned as a juror in any
Circuit Court more than once in one
year."
Professional Jurors Picked Out.
At Tuesday night's meeting of the
Multnomah Bar Association at the
Courthouse, the jury committee report
ed that within the last year 86 special
veniremen served on juries more than
once. The list of "professional" jury
men, given out by the committee, is as

for. it is not to he supposed- they have
been fixed. For instance I had a case
some tim a?ro in which a party pued on
a contract for $25,000. It was very evident
that under the terms of the contract the
plaintiff was entitled to the entire tlo.OOO.
if he was entitled to anything at all. But
the jury brought in a verdict for the
plaintiff for $16,666.66. The jurymen had
taken into consideration all the circumstances-
of the making: of the. contract.
and proceeded to do exact justice be
tween man and man. They evidently
went back of the contract and looked at
the benefits the defendant had received
under it.
"I 1iad another case in which a arirl,
under age, testified against" a man who
was on trial, her testimony being corrob
orated by that of witnefses who declared
positively that he had confessed his crime
of- his own volition. Yet the jury stood
ssven for acquittal and five for convic
tion. ' They evidently considered the pun
ishment provided by the law too great
for the-offenee which had been committed,
and proceeded, as had the other jury, to
do justice to the", state and the accused
man ai, nearly as possible under the law.
But If that had been a personal Injury
case, there- might ha-ve been a wail of.
'bribery'- from counsel.
"Another damage suit which was tried
before me recently resulted In ten jurors
agreeing on a moderate amount of dam
ages, the other two holding out for a
much greater amount. Had the defend
ant been a -corporation and tlie case been
reversed, the two jurors- holding out
stubbornly for a low yerdict, there might
have been complaint again that the jurors
were paid to keep the. damages down.
Manner of Drawing Jurors.
"Aa to the manner m which the County
Court has drawn the jury. I think there
has been nothing wrong with it, - I be
lieve the court has taken that matter -up
in the ular course of its daily work."
. I will try to explain to you - what I
think is at the bottom of this entire out
burst over the selection of jurors. - -"Several
-years ago I drew a bill and
presented it to the Legislature for pass
age (and r' am very glad -now that it
did not passj transferring, to the Circuit
Judges the task of making up the Jury
liEt. As presiding judge, I had found that
a very, heavy oercentafcre of the iurors
eubpenaed were -very busy, so that Tt
was almost impossible for them to leave
their daily tasks. Many were business
men, whose attention was- needed to main
tain the business. " One -and another
would say, 'My work is such that it is
almost impossible for me to act as a
juror. But there is? Mr. A, who lives In
the next block, he has a competency and
has retired from business, so that he
could ssrve upon the jury as well as not
"VVhy don't you-subpena him.'
"It was my object to secure fuch men
as these upon the jury, to compose per
haps a third of It, the .balance to be filled
in with others from the taxroll. but as
the bill was killed, nothing came of It.
"Later, however. Judge Sears took It
into his had to do the same thing and.
going to the County Court, asked if he
might draw the jury list. To this the
County Court acqui?sced, and he worked
at it one day, at odd moments. But" he
discovered by that time that it was a
huge task and. taking the whole thing to
Sheriff Stevens, aeked him to do the
work. This the Sheriff delegated to one
of his deputies, and the list was after
ward turned back to the County Court.
"I do not think any jurors had been
drawn except those entitled to serve, or
that they were fixed by the 'interests.'
But a local attorney was at that time
counsel for the railway corporation and
also personal counsel for Sheriff Stevens.
"When the manner in which the list had
been drawn was - discovered, some at
torneys opened their eyes in holy horror,
and that feeling has been brewing among
the members of the bar ever since.
"That was five or six years aajo. "When
Judge Sears died, the County Court
wanted nre to draw the next Jury list.
But I told Judge Webster I would not do
it. that the law makes it the dutv of the
County Court to draw the list, and -that
the County Court must do it.
"As to jurors favorable to corporations
being put on" the jury list. I do not
believe it. ' There may have been single
instances of individuals who are poor,
and who were cloe friends' of the person
drawing the list, being placed on the list,
simply for friendship's sake, and be
cause they needed the money which jury
service-would bring, but I do not believe
they were drawn to favor any interest or
individual, or to serve upon eny special
case." f

nervous exhaustion, run-down con-
ditlon. weak nerves, lack of ambi
tion or energy. A wonderfully simple
device, called. Electropodes, Is now
designed to supply all the 8trength
necessary to render the nerves

ment: that they ' produce " results
which can be quickly felt and even
. seen in an improved condition of
the general system is the emphatic
statement of those who have used
them.
Electropodes represent a distinct
advance In the application of elec
tricity for the cure of diseases.
They are reported to have a remark
able effect not only upon the nerves,
but also upon the kidneys, stomach
and liver, being an exceptional
remedy for kidney troubles, stomach
and liver derangements, neuralgia,
rheumatism, backache, lumbago, in
somnia and weak heart.
Electropodes are metallic Insoles
so . placed in the heels of the shoes
as to be unnotteeable to the wearer.
By contact . with the body it is
stated theya electrify and invigorate
every fibre, organ, nerve, and blood
vessel and the condition of the sys
tem quickly changes for the better.
Electropodes are never uncomfor
table, yet you feel a mighty change
and .increased power creeping upon

To prove that these statements
are not In the least exaggerated. The
Kiectropode Company, of Lima.
' Ohio, has your druggist sign a con
tract that if you are not satisfied
with the Electropodes at the end of
30 days' -trial, you can have your
money right back.

to satisfy you. If your druggist does
not have Electropodes on hand, have
