PUBLICITY ON 1Y Oregon and Washington Draw Heavily in 1911. to MANY CITIES MOST ACTIVE Commercial C'lnhs In Two States Busily Kngagcd In Answer Ing Numberless Queries From Middle Wrt and Far East. I'nusual activity In Industrial sjub Uclty is manifest in every portion of the Columbia and Willamette Valleys, as well as across the ranges Into Wash ington and Kastern Oregon. Reports received by Publicity Promoter Chap man, of the Portland Commercial Club, from all sections are remarkable In the detailed account given of the Interest and activity shown by Oregon and Washington boosters. There seems to be a wave of "tell-the-world-our-story" In every Commer cial Club In the two states. Tons of literature are either on the wa'y to the East or In course of preparation. New pamphlets of the 1911 stamp are being Issued by every town seeking In creased development. Among those are Portland. Salem. Astoria. Hood River, The Dalles. Ashland. Medford. Roseburg. Pendleton, and Baker. All Club Broaden Scope. Each of the Commercial Clubs has broadened out In seeking local Im provements In many eases. Salem's Board of Trade Is working for Im proved roads In Its vicinity: Astoria Is planning the centennial celebration of Its birth: The Dalles Is looking for ward to miles of paving during the coming Summer: Medford seeks a per manent exhibit In Chicago, and Ash land has the conception of sending an exhibit to be displayed In all -of the auditoriums of the country. South western Washington Is engaged In solving the stumpage question. Co-operation seems to be the timely thing at present, and not only are the smaller Commercial Cluba associated In state organization, but the states have eliminated the heretofore friendly rivalry and entered cordially Into a acheme of boosting for the Coast.

We. expect to get either a special train for the Kirls or else, to have several special cars and to make a number of stopovers while we are on the way to Portland. We shall arrive a day or two before the Festival and will be here the entire week. It Is also our plan to visit the chief points of scenic Interest on the Coast and to have theater parties, sight-seeing tours with perhaps a banquet while in Port land." v A meeting was held with the Rose Festival management yesterday and President Hoyt said that every func tion that the association had anything to do with would be open to the party of girls as guests of the Festival. The party will also be given a part In the regular programme of the Fes tival and the young women will occupy a float in one of the parades of the week. LANDLORD LEARNS LAV.

I . . Estimates of Various Depart ments Reduced to Come Within Allowance. SERIOUS PROBLEM OFFERS Change of Charter Necessary to Ob tain Funds for Street Cleaning DepartmentGenera! Fond Is Insufficient. Six mills will probably be the city tax levy for next year. This Is the opinion of Mayor Simon, who will com plete the compilation of his annual budget within the next few days. It lias bee necessary for the Mayor to cut down Vae estimates of various de partments as much as possible, but the growth of the city has made It neces sary to provide considerably more money for running It in 1911 than was used this year. "I shall recommend to the Council," said the Mayor yesterday, "that the levy be not more ftian six mills." Last year the levy was only 4.9 mills, but that was less than the year previ ous. The limit allowed by the charter is seven' mills. How to get money to meet the ex pense of the streetcleanlng and sprink ling department is becoming a serious problem at the City Hall, for the law does not permit ttie Council to levy a tax for that expense. At the time the present city charter was compiled, the general fund of the city, which is made up of receipts from licenses and similar things, was large enough to pay for the cleaning and sprinkling of streets. New Streets Make Burden Heavy. , With t'ne great increase In the miles of paved streets, the cost of this de partment has grown so rapidly that In 1911 it will not be possible to care lor it from the general fund. The growth of expense in the department can be understood when it Is explained that In 1903 it amounted to $43,819.48. while for- this year It will reach I248.750.4S. or almost six times as much as It was seven years ago. Tne head of that de partment has asked for an appropria tion for next year of $329,566.50. The estimated receipts for the gen eral fund, from which the money for the streetcleanlng and sprinkling de partment must be taken according to the present law, for next year Is $GS9, 6S2. wMile the estimated expenditures amount to $899,335.60. Thus there must be a deficiency, if the estimate Is ap proved, of considerably more than $100, 000, and there Is no way for the Coun cil, to meet it, unless the charter is changed to so as to permit the city to levy a tax for me street department. Almost every year one or more of the funds for which a tax has been levied Is depleted before the year ends, and this deficiency must be made up from the general fund. The amount of money thus transferred to ot'ner funds from the general fund this year will amount to about $74,000. In 1908 It readied $103,009. Charter Change Xccessary. It is believed now that In order to keep the departments dependent on the general fund from realizing a deficit In future yearB, It will be necessary to ask the people to change the char ter so as to permit the city to levy a tax to pay. for fne street department. One thing that may Increase the gen eral fund next year is the proposed in crease In the price of liquor licenses from $800 a year to $1000 a year. An ordinance providing for this is now be fore the Council. It was introduced by Councilman Wallace. City Auditor Barbur has Just com pleted a table showing the increase in the annual cost of street Improvements and sewers and the annual expense of t'ne city engineer's department during the last seven years. It shows that the cost In conducting the city engineer's office has not Increased In proportion to the cost of street Improvements. The total cost of street improvements for the five years ending with, and In cluding 1907. was $2,613,757.56. or less ftian the estimated cost of street Im provements for this year alone.- Dur ing the years mentioned, the cost of conducting the city engineer's office totaled $117.130.;4. .The cost of street improvements f'r this year. It Is estl- Northern Pacific President to Dedi cate Xe Depot at Ellensburg. Advantage will be taken of the pres ent visit of President Howard . Elliott, of the Northern Pacific, to the North west In an effort further to acquaint him with the. constantly improving conditions here, and especially to dedi cate the new $50,000 Northern Paclflo depot at Ellensburg, Wash'. The citizens of Ellensburg have made elaborate preparations for the formal opening of the new station next Saturday. November 19. A banquet will be served In the building, at ' which President Elliott and other officials of the road will be the guests of honor. A. D. Charlton, assistant general pas senger agent, and A. H. Fogarty. as sistant general freight agent In this city, will attend the exercises. Speeches will be made. The Ellensburg station is one of the most handsome on the line of the Northern Pacific, and is thoroughly modern in every detail. The "people of that place are proud of the structure and have arranged the festivities to show- their appreciation to the North ern Pacific officials. Anti-Treating Movement Begins in Suburb Itose City Park Folk Will Pay Own Carfare as Test of Plan. TIE Rose City Park Improvement Association has started a movement that may eventually break up the treat ing system. The reform Is to begin with abolishing the practice of paying each other's streetcar fare. The mem bers of the association have agreed that no matter what the circumstances, they will pay only their own fares on the streetcar. Should a young man take a young woman In Rose; City Park to the theater, which sometimes happens, the young woman must provide herself with 10 cents before she starts. Although the money In a family goes into and comes out of the general fund, when it comes to streetcar riding each member must have a nickel to give the conductor to live up to the agreement. The agreement became effective last week, and the number of nickels on the Rose City Park cars has greatly- in creased, due to the fact that persons loyal to the agreement have been taking pains to obtain correct change before boarding the cars. The conductors have grown correspondingly indolent, on ac count of lack of exercise in making change. This is an effect not anticipated when the reform system was Inaugu rated, but members of the association hope to supplant the deficiency felt by the conductors by Inducing them to help women and babies on and off the cars. When all the residents of Rose City Park are broken into the habit of not paying the fare of anyone or allowing anyone to pay their fare, the association proposes to broaden the scope of the reform movement by extending it to the cigar Btores, ca.rwly shops, restaurants and, eventually, to have everybody chew ing his own gum.
