1 TIIE MORNTXG OKEGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1910. 14 0I10S WILL FIGHT ACROSS BOUNDARY Canadian Pacific to Retaliate if British Columbia Is Invaded. BRANCHES NORTH PLANNED "Transcontinental Roads South 'lilne Believed to Bo Seeking New 'Business Rupture With , Xorthern Pacific I-iikely. Invasion of British Columbia by the transcontinental railroads that now have lines Into Seattle, and a retaliatory in vasion of the Puget Sound country and Oregon by the Canadian Pacific are strongly Indicated, say men who are ob servers of railway development in the Northwest. A report that such construction work la planned by the various roads is pub lished by the Railway Age, which men tions the probability of the American roads extending from Seattle to Vancou ver, B. C, and the Canadian Pacific building to Seattle, Tacoma and Portland. The Great Northern is the only Amer ican road now having an extension op erating to Vancouver. This extension is the coast line of the road, which runs nlong the Sound through Bellingham and Blaine, and thence to the British Co , lumbia metropolis. C. P. It. Has Track Rights. The Northern Pacific has a branch i line in operation northward through Sno- homish, 'Wickersham and other interior 'points to Sumas, a town on the interna tional boundary line. The Canadian Pa cific has a branch line extending from Mission Junction, B. C, southward to Sumas, and for several years has had traffic arrangements with, the Northern Pacific, which permits the road to get Into Seattle over the Sumas branch. At one time the Canadian made Bell 1 Ingham Us Puget Sound rail terminus, , reaching that point over the Bellingham I Bay & British Columbia from Sumas. ) Several years ago negotiations for the , purchase of the Bellingham Bay road j were almost concluded, but were stopped by some final hith. Rumors have fre quently arisen since then that the Ca . nadlan Pacific would purchase the Bell ingham Bay & British Columbia road, and extend it to Seattle, or would paral- lei the Northern Pacific to the upper Sound. With the l'nlon Pacific and Southern Pacific now reaching Seattle over the Oregon & Washington, and the Milwau kee operating a through freight service, the competitive situation in sight is be lieved likely to bring about a rupture between the Northern Pacific and Ca nadian Pacific and a branching out for more traffic In British Columbia. a All Roads Plan Branches. The Milwaukee Is already heading for Everett 30 miles north of Seattle, but It is 126 miles to the boundary line. All the roads mentioned would serve prac tically the same country between Seat tle and Vancouver, being limited as to routes by the topography of the country, end extension into British -Columbia would undoubtedly mean ramification of the district to build up traffic. The Canadian Pacific is already in the eastern portion of Washington and Its passenger trains are operated, into Port land In conjunction with the O. R. & N. line between Portland "and Spokane. Attempts have occasionally been made to identify the mysterious North Coast road as a Canadian Pacific venture, and If this surmise should turn out to be true, the Canadian Paoific will be equipped with a through route, via Spokane, to Puget Sound, and can probably afford to pive up Its traffic arrangement with the Northern Pacific, pending the construc tion of a north and south line of its own. Identification of the Canadian inter ests behind the North Coast would ac count, too, for the anxiety of the Ameri can roads to get into British Columbia on retaliatory grounds. OPPOSES FREE RANGE "Writer Advocates Perpetual Public Ownership. PORTLAND, Feb. 19. (To the Editor.) rrhe .Bullinger-Plnchot controversy has cer tainly attracted the attention of the people to the need of Oovernment ownership ot the forests and grailng lands of tie LLltett States The time has come when the peo ple must act. They are the Government end are to blame If the public domain Is not handled as It should be. The people in general have not given a thought as to the manner la which the public land has and is being disposed of. ana something radical had to be done to attract their attention to the need of con servation. The people have let the politi cians handle the subject long enough and should awaken to the fact that there Is something for them to attend to at once. There are minium vl l " ment land classed as forest and grazing land. Is it not better for the people if the Government owns and controls It, than allow a few private Interests to do so? It Is now known that the land used for public range would support several times the number of head of livestock it now does If properly handled, and the settlers on small farms given a chance at the Gov ernment pastures. It Is time to u prohibit livestock from ranging at large over publlo land free of charge. All livestock should be herded or placed in inclosures, the same as is done on private land. If free grazing upon public land is prohibited, the owners of large private tracts would soon divide them Into small farms and sell them to set tlers, who would soon absorb the few large herds now grazing upon the public range tree of charge. The grazing lands should toe leased to settlers, who live near, and limit the amount to each, so that all who wish and are entitled to a share can get It. The land ought to be left open for entry under the United States land laws, and If filed on possession should be given at the expiration of lease. The stockmen who occupy the free range , have not only fought the advance of the settlers, but fight among themselves for possession of certain parts of the free range. And will continue to fight the settlers and each other until free gracing upon public land Is prohibited, which should be done at once. Canada has no range conflicts. Canada looked after that years ago. Neither stockman nor settler In Canada can cut hay upon publlo land without a permit, and the permits are Issued so that .all who wish and are entitled to a share can get It. The closing of the free range would in crease Instead of deoreaalng the livestock Interests of the United States. Is it not better for a district or community to have 20 settlers who own GO to 10O head of cattle than to have one stockman who owns 100O or 2000 head 7 The more set tlers there are the more business for the merchants and transportation companies. If the United et&tes Government does not save and retlmtoer the denuded forests and reseed the worn -out grazing lands, who will? Private ownership Is not doing It, and never can do it. W. K.

All of the obligations of the Portland Fair and Live Stock Exposition have been paid or provision made for their payment and plans for the 1910 fair are under way. "We look for a big event this year," said D. O. Lively, who is doing the pre liminary work pending the selection c a permanent secretary. "We will try to make this yearns fair so varied that every man, woman and child in the Northwest will want to see what we have to offer. There will be a big display of live stock, including horses, dairy, and beef cattle, sheep and hogs. An attractive race card will be a feature; there will be vide shows along the 'log road." There will be auto mobile and motor cycle races. A baby show is also being considered. "We will also offer prizes for the long est and most beautiful hair shown by girls not over 7 years of age and for girls between 7 and 12. Manufacturers to I5e There. "Every manufacturer of Portland and Oregon will be asked to display his prod uct; we will ask the lumber mills to pre pare an exhibit and the sellers of agri cultural machinery to make a display in keeping with Portland's Importance as a distributing center. The presidents of the Oregon Trunk and the Deschutes Railway companies will each be asked to prepare a display of the products of Central Ore gon and offer prize for dry farming re sults The leading department stores will be expected to erect and equip booths In which 'they will . display their choicest merchandise. "Western Oregon will be looked to for the greatest display of orchard products that has ever been 'made in the West and each day there will be lectures on some live Industrial topic "The night show will be worth while. There will be free vaudeville, economic lectures, magic lantern demonstrations of progress in the elimination of disease, And other educational features. "Portland's and Oregon's school chil dren will engage In friendly rivalry in art competition, map making, mechanical skill and music, and the women of the entire state will be Invited to show their skill in needlework. In culinary endeavor and in the other arts. " Special days will be set apart for the fraternal orders, for the different sections and cities of this state and Washington, for children, for women, for amateur horse events, and for special parades. We will en deavor to make Portland day a bigger event than Seattle day was at the Alaska-Yukon. Music to Be Special Feature. "Music will be a special feature.

BANDON'S CLUB IS ACTIVE Organization Busy With Project for Town's Development. BANDON, Or., Feb. 26. (Special.) Ban don's Commercial Club is an active or ganization and splendid results are ex pected for the city. Besides getting the proposition of establishing a Port of Co quille River before the people, so that an election will be called on the question very soon, the club has taken up a num ber of other propositions. A sidewalk will be laid from the city to the beautiful Bandon beach so that visitors as well as residents may have easier access to the ocean and the club has also taken up the subject of establishing a marine hos pital here and the secretary Is now In communication with the proper author ities on the question, with excellent pros pects! of success. The question of putting a telegraph line into the city has been taken up with the Western Union Company. Messages are now sent and received by telephone from Marshfleld. which is very unsatisfactory.

PORTLAND WILL PROFIT Distrlct Is Commercially Tributary and Will Be Developed' Second Cripple Creek, Is Prediction . of C. E. Sklles. Reports from the Morrow-Harmon ledge uncovered at Elk City, Idaho, con tinue to affirm the importance of the discovery on the south fork of Clearwater river.' The new bonanza is about nine miles from the old camp of Elk City, and Is between the stage station of Newsome and Elk City. The location Is practically within the heart of the old mining district and much of the adjoin ing ground is covered with old locations which have been kept alive by the per formance of annual assessment work, and In many Instances the properties are owned by companies which for years have maintained steady development. Among the late arrivals from the Idaho find is Charles E. Sklles, president of the Gold Success Mining Company, com posed largely of Portland men, and which entered the Elk City district in 1902. Magnitude Not Doubted. "There is no doubt of the magnitude of the strike reported from the Mor row and Harmon property," said Mr. Sklles at the . Portland yesterday. "I know the men as old prospectors of the district and am not in the least cha grined that such good fortune should crown their efforts. The result will be that the Elk City district will receive recognition and the development it has lacked will be begun speedily. The new strike opens the way. It was all that was necessary to assure the future of the camp and make it to Portland what the Coeur d'Alenes has been to Spokane, It ras the money of the miners that made Spokane, and as the new camp will be altogether dependent on Portland for Its supplies. It will follow that this city will be the Denver . of the mining interests of Eastern Oregon and Western Idaho. "Elk City has operated low-grade free milling properties for many years. The cost of mining and milling the ore has averaged only about J1.S2 a ton. Last year 62 claims and groups of claims were being operated. Many of them are equipped, as in the Gold Success group, with stamp mills, cyanide vats and van ner or wifley tables. I pinned my faith to Elk City eight years ago, after spend ing twenty years in Colorado and the mining camps of that state. The min eral is there, and with the irfrpetus which the new bonanza will give the district we hope for better transportation facil ities. The output of ore will follow. Trip Not Tiresome. "The best way to reach the district is by way of Lewiston. You leave here in the evening. Breakfast is had In Lew iston. In the afternoon the train leaves for Stites, reached in the early evening. Next morning a stage leaves for Elk City, the first night out being passed at Newsome, and the journey to point of destination beirig finished next day. The roads are splendid and the trip is not in the least tiresome." "The snow is now about three feet deep up there now, and aside from ex aminations of the tunnels and other open ings -which can be reached, the forma tion of the' country can not be Investi gated. It will be the first of May before prospectors can do much good for them selves, although the rush has started from the towns on the east side of the state and In Western Idaho. ' Many of the men who are going in now will not be able to remain, and are the class who rush to every excitement in hopes of securing a location upon which a ready sale can be had. "The Elk City district lies entirely within the gneiss area. Isolated rem nants of quartzlte and mica schist are found In different parts, indicating that it once was overlaid with greatly altered sedimentary rocks. Intrusive dikes of Igneous rocks are frequently found, and the veins of mineralized matter occur strongly. Values have never been found to be uniform in the various discoveries and are apt to show in some stratas in greater quantities than in others. The quartz Is free near the surface, and the depth at which the new strike cut the ledge encourages the belief that the sul phides will be encountered at a much greater depth than was expected." , Camp Established In 1862. Elk City was first brought to the at tention of miners in 1S61, when a party of prospectors made Its way along the South Fork of the Clearwater to what was then the hunting ground of the Nez Perce Indians. The Indians considered the intrusion a violation of treaty rights, and it was only after a long parley that the party was allowed to reach Elk Creek, where rich gravel was found. In 1S62 Elk City was established and a min ing district organized, with Captain L. B. Monson as recorder of claims. The "skim" diggings, as the bars of the streams were designated, proved im mensely rich In coarse gold and were worked out with the old rocker of the California days. In 1864 the miners began working the bench land with hydraulic apparatus, and It Is said that the sea son's clean up from the first giant In stalled, was $183,000. Experts assert that the total output for the placer mines to the time of their practical abandonment in 18S0 was tl8.500.000. - In 1884 the Buster vein was located as the pioneer of the quartz mines of the district, and Is now owned by a com pany headed by Fred Bradley, of Port land. The early history of the Buster was one of failure, but it la now asserted Kodol the better. Eat what you want, let Kodol digest it.

ADVENTLOF HALLEY COMET Effect on Oregon Politics Treated Scientifically. PORTLAND. Feb. 19. (To the Editor.) Desiring to adji my mite to the enlight enment of the poor and misguided suf ferers from Bournecltlsis, I answer the following queries just received: "Why do assemblymen make us tired? Qulliinan." Yaups always make them selves tired. They are sufferers from the loss of mental appetite. "How can one be married, yet happy? Doubter." By' adopting the assembly plan in the family. Every sensible wife is an assembly man. Transient misun derstandings are' settled for good and all in convention assembled in the home, by the majority vote, a vote which, of course. Is the woman's. What would you think of a molly-coddle husband bolting in this case and telling his troubles to the whole state? Pooh, I'd rather marry a wooden Indian. "Was Halley, who discovered the comet bearing his name, a cockney? Scientist." Yes, if the calf is the mother of the cow. The O'Halley's or O'Malley's set tled in Bally-Phillalew, about one stone throw to the south of the peat bog, where the' wild ass and the Jaunting car upset O'Hofer and O'Bourne. Fear not any danger from Halley's comet. The last time we butted into it we demonstrated to the assembled astral convention our ability to throw off as much gas, bom bastic meteors, foul-smelling volcanoes and fishmonging asteroids from dead poli ticians as any comet that ever came down the orbital pike. Halley's comet knows when it's well off. J. H. M. Today is positively the last day for dis count on East Side gas bills. Read "Gas Tips." Cured by Lydia E.

I AM MASTER OF MEN'S AILMENTS Consult Me Free The study of medicine is as broad as life and as complex as nature. It is there fore impossible for anv individual to master the treatment of all human ills. The man who attempts to do so is able to cure only the most simple ailments. The ordinary physician is like the man who attempts to master every branch of mechanics, from watchmaking- to shipbuilding. t?uch a man becomes neither a good watchmaker nor a successful shipbuilder. The general medical practitioner knows as much about one dis ease as he knows about another and he has no intimate knowledge of anjf. The cures he performs when he is fortunate enough to cure are usually purely accidental. The pa tient gets well, not because of the physician s efforts, but In spite of them. When the ordi nary physician treats men's ailments, HE RARELY EFFECTS A CURE. I AM A SPECIALIST IN MEN'S AILMENTS. ' My practice is confined wholly to the ailments of men, and the fart that I invariablv cure every case that I accept for treatment rKOVM that my methods are correct. Indeed. I have for twenty-flye yf'ar3 made a specialty of men's ailments and have so closely studied them that I am able to meet everv phase and condition of each Individual case, and to effect a permanent cure in a very short time. I am never for a moment in doubt as to mv course. I know Just WHAT to aa and HOW to do it, to obtain satisfactory RESULTS. This explains why my practice has grown to be by far the largest in the western part of America. So confident am I that I can effect a thorough and LASTING CORE in each case that I accept for treatment, that I will give a Written and Binding GUARANTEE TO CURE YOU, and YOU NEED NOT PAY ME A DOLLAR UNTIL YOU ARE WELL. - Bear In mind that I could not afford to do this if I did not MOW that my treatment would not fail. I am the only doctor who dares to make such a proposition. Under no circumstances do I ever take cases for treatment that are doubtful. Hence, If I accept your case for treat ment you may absolutely rely upon it that I will cure you. MY METHODS My methods are entirely original with me, and the result of .many vears of special study and experience. Instead of filling my patients up with powerful drugs and stimulants, as do other specialists 1 apply soothing, healing and absorbent medicines DIRECTLY to the dialj g. healing and absorbent medicines u ThV best Nf, and thus aid nature in overcoming the trouble. The best mmn skill can do is to ASSIST NATUKK. It is nature that per he cures. Powerful drugs taken through the stomach do not fure. lerely set up a new disturbance in the system, which, for a time, the energies from the old disease to the new attack. this is invariably attended with a reaction, and in consequence, leaves REGION, and thus aid nature in overcoming the trouble. ine v that human skill can do is to ASSIST NATURE. It Is nature that per forms the cures. Powerful drugs They merel diverts .1 rnf-rt u 11 to tfivarlahlw the patient in a worse condition than before treatment. Another method employed bv another class of physicians is to dose the sufferer with tonics, which exhilarate the patient so that he actually believes himself improving under such treatment. But after a very short time, these stimulant medicines cease producing the desired effect, when the ailment gains a new and firmer hold upon the patient. HOW I CURE. Mv method of treatment overcomes inflammation and congestion hy aiding the tissues of the diseased region to throw off the poisonous secretions and the deadlv toxins caused by the disease. Some of these toxins are more poisonous than the virus of the rattlesnake s fang. Thousands of the cases of sudden death which occur with alarming frequency in every city in the land, are directly due to toxic poison, al though such cases are usually pronounced "heart failure, or heart dis ease. My treatment completely eliminates every trace of disease and accumulated poisons from the system, and thus allows nature to perfect a COMPLETE CURE. DO NOT BE DECEIVED. Mv methods have revolutionized the-treatment of ailments Pfcu'Iar to men. and consequently altered former medical theories. Imitators ot my svstem of practice have sprung up everywhere. A pronounced success in any field of human endeavor begets imitators. Following the Genu ine, there always conies the Counterfeit.
