Great Northern and t'nlon Pacific
Spend arge Sums to Bring
Wonder of Orejcon Before
Residents of East.
With "back to the farm" aa their
slogan In directing people of the Eaatern
Btatea to come to Oregon to live, the
Great Northern Railway Company and
the Union Pacific Railroad Company have
started advertising campaigns believed to
be without parallel In coat and scope of
the undertakings.
Fifteen hundred publications In the Cen
tral states and Middle West contain,
every week, advertising matter in regard
to the Investment opportunities and home
making attractions to be found In Ore
gon. These advertisements appear in
weekly and trl-weekly periodicals and
cover nearly all the farming sections east
of the Rocky Mountains.
In a letter received by C. C. Chapman,
manager of the publicity department of
the Portland Commercial Club. S. J.
Ellison, general passenger agent of the
Oreat Northern Railway Company, at
St. Paul, states that nothing Is being
spared by his company to bring Oregon
to the attention of the East, and predicts
for the coming 12 months the largest
colonisation travel In the history of the
road. The letter In part reads:
"In addition to our campaign of pub
licity in the Eastern field, designed to
attract newcomera to Oregon, we will
endeavor to create an attitude of loyalty
and co-operation on the part of the pres
ent Inhabitants with a view to securing
their aid In attracting a population to
the new country and making the most of
the possibilities of development. With
this end In view, we have presented sli
ver loving cups as prises at the Lane
County Fair at Eugene, and will present
two cups at the Harney County fair to
be held at Bums. October I to I We
also plan to present similar trophies at
the Crook County fair.
"We feel that the Interests of the peo
ple of Oregon and the railroad are one
and we are doing everything lnour power
to bring about a condition of prosperity
and development that will be as benefi
cial to one as the other."
Gerrlt Fort, passenger traffic manager
of the fnlon Pacific Railroad Company,
at Omaha. Neb., has advised Mr. Chap
man In a similar manner.
Manager Chapman said yesterday that
all assistance possible was being given
the railroad companies In promoting the
exploitation of the resources and oppor
tunities of Oregon. As a result of this
co-operation. Mr. Chapman says that
many Inquiries are coming in daily from
prospective settlers, and he Is of the
opinion that the heglra from the East
to Oregon has just been started.

quest for Training Vessel.
Contrary to Commander Marsh's letter I
to George S- Shepherd, or ine w

of Commerce, yesterday, that the Navy

lows: "Secretary Glltner: The department Is

requesting the assignment at Portland,
for the recently-organised Naval Militia,
of a vessel for training purposes, and
suggesting vessels of the Yorktown and
Vlcksburg type.
The department Is pleased to note the
Interest In naval afTairs shown by the
people of Portland, and whatever assist
ance Is possible will be gladly given.
The value of training on a ship Is per
fectly well known to the department, but
In view of the urgent need of vessels of
the above-mentioned type In the regular
service, and the lack of vessels of other
type for such duty, the department re
grets to say that it can make no assign
ment at the present time. Respectfully.
"N. F. NICHOLSON.

Record of I'nlverslty.
SALEM. Or, Sept. 28. (Special.)
The first regular classes will start on
schedule at Willamette University to
morrow and this morning the first
chapel services of the semester were
held. President Homan has as yet re
fused to make a statement of the reg
istration so far this year, but states
that it Is far In excess of any first
two days of school In th,e history of
the Institution.
The campus has been fairly alive
with new students and Lausanne Hall
Is crowded to capacity, a large number
of students seeking quarters In various
parts of the city.
"While I have been expecting some
thing big for the opening of the year,"
said Dr. Homan. "the results have
really been a surprise to me, not only
In the number of the students, but In
their character. -In every department
the students who have arrived make
up a splendid body of young men and
women and there can be no doubt In
my mind that this will be the most,
successful year that we have ever had."
It Is believed that the registration
will jro to the 400 mark, although no
definite figures have been given out
and Dr. Homan desires to withhold
them until he has secured prartlcally
a completed list of those registering.

a great deal of interest on the part of
the business men In having their win

It remained for the one official to visit

ficial effects of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, when required. The
forming of regular habits is most im
portant and while endeavoring to
form them the assistance of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna is most vat

acts without disturbing the natural

it is the one laxativo which leaves the
internal organs In a naturally healthy
condition, thereby really aiding one In
that way. To get its beneficial effects,
buy the genuine manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. only, and for

of Figs and Elixir of Senna is never

medicines which make extravagant
and unfounded claims to cure habitual
constipation without personal co-operation.

Delivered to Your Address in Portland
A few days ago the Pacific Coal & Gas Company advertised that
they would sell 900 tons of their BEST GRADE LUMP COAL AT,
$5.50 PER TON, DELIVERED IN PORTLAND, FOR ADVERTIS
ING PURPOSES ONLY, stating also that a check or cash must
accompany each order, and that ONLY TWO TONS WOULD BE
SOLD TO EACH CUSTOMER AT THAT PRICE. We now wish to
announce that we have sold 810 tons out of the 900 we agreed to sell
at that price. We are making our deliveries to those who have or
dered the coal, and a great many of them have voluntarily called at
this office, or telephoned, that they were exceedingly well pleased
with the quality of the coal.
If you wish to take advantage of two tons of the remaining
amount, you will, naturally, have to act at once, and please remember
that we will only sell two tons to each customer, and that the CHECK
OR CASH MUST INVARIABLY ACCOMPANY EACH ORDER,
for the reason that we are selling this coal at what it costs as to
mine and deliver it to you.
We have our own mines and are merely advertising with this lot
of 900 tons that we may very quickly get 450 coal users in Portland.
We know that when you once use this coal you will continue to do so,
and please remember that we will always be under the other fellow's
price on the best grade lump coal.
If you will call at our offices we shall be glad to show you samples
of the coal, together with some letters from those who are now using
our coal in Portland.
