Weldler and Knott were therefore eliminated. On Ills Mate In Shortage. In the car shortage of 103. which Mr. Campbell said, waa the worat In the Northwest he ever knew, the rail road company raised the rata from Portland to California to '. to make It prohibitive and release the cars for the benefit of Southern Oregon mills. Tor a time, he said, the rate waa 17.50. The Southern Oregon mills then num bered about 2 j. be sal.L. The low rate remained In force from Albany south, and tile high rate waa In force from Al buny north. The Portland mill-owners blamed the Willamette Valley mllla for th rise, he said. The higli freight rate and shortage! of cars wiped all the mllla out of exist ence, he aald. There wasn't a mill In the Valley In debt that survived." aald Mr. Camp bell. "Ib has Invariably been the rase that whenever there has been an agi tation over the high freight rates on lumber there has at the time been a prvaillng low price for It." He said the Southern l'acific la now In a prosperous condition. Sheridan Mill I.or.

H a r nr t 111 haI be present In person were represented j by counsel. There was u general out cry against the additional carllne in Irvlngton, but many admitted they spoke from selfish motives, a they wished to live In quietude and were naturally much opposed to the pro posed railway. Many spoke at length of the fact that the road probably was destined to develop heavy freight busi ness, and said they felt that great care should be taken to protect people's rlghta before granting such a franchise. Among those who spoke In opposi tion to the granting of a franchise on Weldler. Halsey or Knott streets were Major C. H. Martin. C. C. Colt. George M. Hyland. G. W. Stapleton. C. W. Hod son. Mrs. M. L. T. Hidden and Council man Drlscoll. All declared they favored the franchise, but not for any of the streets under consideration. Narrowness of the streets, tearing up of the hard-surface improvements and the laying of a carllne past a public school building were arguments used by the speakers. With regard to the Seventh-street franchise on the Weat Side. It. W. Hoyt asked that the committee hear J. B. Leber. Mr. Laber aeked that no action be taken until next week, but C. W Fulton urged that there should be as little delay as possible, owing to the approach of Spring, when the company wishes to push Its operations with all possible speed, he said. Tlterlor Motive Denied. Mr. Fulton strongly resented the In sinuation of some of the speakers that there are some mysterious persons be hind the Mount Hood road who have ulterior mot'ves In pushing the enter prise, lie challenged any one to name any person acting In any such capacity. and no one replied. 'The people behind the enterprise are simply plain American citizens who have money to invest and wtah to in vest a big lot of It here In Portland." declared Mr. Fulton. "They believe that th's Is to be the metropolis of the Niefthweit. and want to enter business here. It ia a great puzzle to me how good people, like many here today, can be maneuvered and engineered around by adverse interests, as In this case. There are indications that promised competition In the railway and light ing business, is not welcomed by the opposition, and that may have much to do with the continued and stubborn opposition we have encountered."

It will then follow Seventh etreet to Flanders. thence to Tenth, on Tenth to Stark and on Stark to First Protestants Win Day. This route was decided upon only after careful attention by the commit tee members had been given to the lengthy, detailed statements of rfop- erty-owners and others representing property on and near the other streets that had been mentioned. There were vehement protests from well-known citizens living on and having Interests In Weldler. Halsey and Knolt streets. tnd their arguments won the day. Councilman Belding made the motion rhlch determined the action of the committee, and there was no opposi tion among .the members. There were few present with Interests on Brazes street, but those who were said they believed It would be wiser to com promise on Brasee than to attempt to fight the project further. The committee baa not yet fully con sidered the franchise of the company. ind therefore adjourned to meet at 1:30 o'clock next Tuesday afternoon. The recommendation as to the route to be followed will not come before the Council at Its session this morning for this reason. There are several impor tant features to be considered before final action by the committee Is taken for recommendation to the main body. Service to He Considered. Among the features to be considered by the committee are the local passen- gr service, whether there ehall be a provision compelling the company to operate cars at freiiient Intervals In the city limits, and transfers to the lines of the Portland Railway. Light A Power Company and on the United Hallways. Councilman Kubll Insisted that the committee insert in the proposed fran chise a provirlon making ten-mihute service conipukiory over the Mount Hood lines within the city limits, and so moved. Councilman Uriscoll, who Is not a member of the street committee, said he favored such a clause. How ever, as this Is an Important subject, no decision was reached, aa the members wished to take more time for Its con sideration. Jt la the contention of Mr. Kubli that there are several thousand persons living In Montavllla aud neigh boring sections who would patronize the line if this service were furnished, saying the present conditions were far from satisfactory. C. W. Fulton, counsel for the com pany, and Chief Knglneer Smith said Ihey felt It would be too great a bur den for the Council to Impose at the outset.

"My father has telegraphed through the Chief of Police that he hao bought a ticket for me from Portland to New York and that I am to meet him there and go to Europe and I am to travel under the chaperonage of a priest," said Miss Jane B. Cunningham, the young woman whose tenacious atand of laxt week to remain Independent of parental control was apparently reversed yester day, when ehe was seen aboard the French bark Bossuet, at the elevator dock, on which vessel she lias been 1 guest since arriving from San Fran clsco recently. t rom that It doea not appear that I am demented, as my father eiet forth In his first message to the Chief of Police else why would he plan a Journey for me to New York alone, there to be placed under the guidance of a priest? argued the woman. "I had intended sailing for Europe on the Bossuet, but the owners refutw to permit me to go as a passenger, as that Is really a big con cession. I did want to make the Medi terranean trip, but now I shall go to Kurope and remain for a time as my father wishes." Mlm Cunningham declined to give the address of her mother, who Is said to live In San Francisco, saying that she did not wish to inspire more comment than her position has caueed. Miss Cun ningham expressed the opinion that her mother had aided her father In tracing her. A sister, she said, was to have been presented with ShiOO If she could Induce the truant girl to go abroad and she ascribed her sister's motives In try ing to reap the reward to Jealousy. The Bosauet Is ready to begin loading wheat and In about two weeks should be at sea, so Mins Cunningham, facing the Impossibility of going around the Horn aa a passenger, will prepare to Journey by rail to the Atlantic.

Moth er's Friend is woman's safest reliance; it is a medicine for external use, composed of oils and other ingredients which assist nature in all L necessary physical changes of the system. Its regular use before the coming of baby prepares the muscles and tendons for the unusual strain, aids in expanding the skin and flesh fibres, and strengthens the tissues.
