A resolution was pAjuwd. at the Irvlng

expressing It if the ene of the meetlr.r
that no franchise be given the Mount
Mood Railway Power Company to en
ter Portland by any street between Sis

eral property " ld the gulch was
the locl-al roula for tie new line and
that tt-e lino ought to go that way. A

appointed to wait upn tte Cl:y Council
IMar to protest aaMinst the crantlns; of
th franrhtso ilown any of threw streets.
Benjamin F. Irvine ti emphatic
In Ma protest sgalnst the us of Hroad
' T by the near line, although thla street
atreariv has streetcar trsrks and la the
moat dlreet route for the new line. Others
also cpcaH tha use of Broadway.
Haacnt-k Strre-t Prolel.
A meeting- of Ilancors-street property
wnara reeedej tlie Irvlraton meeting.
A resolution wa paad protesting
against the use of Ilanrork street for
trje new line, and a committee of fir a
waa appointed to be prraent at the Coun
cil meeting- today.
Counrllman Lrlcoll said ha Intended
to rota la tha Council for tha use of
Broadway by tha corporation. H a!4
tha property oarr.ers would better look
orer the terms of tha franchise, to sea
that It contained tha proper restrictions
as to tha dps of tha street and trarT'o
arrangements, aa ha said the new Una
waa coming Into Tort land down soma
street.
Councilman Menefee said there bad
bean considerable complaint about poor
aerrlco of tba present atreelcar company
on Broadway. An amendment to tha
frsnrhlns. Inserting a common-user
rlau. ba aald. would confine tha train
to two cars each and. give a 10-mlnute
service.
Mr. Menefee said tha Mount Flood Una
most go three miles out of Its way to go
down Hawthorne avenue. He said tha
subject of a common-user clause In the
preaent Broadway franchise would be
taken np with President Josselyn, of
the streetcar company, today, and that
If Mr. Josselyn did not consent to a
common-user clause, steps would be
taken to enforce It.
Right to Kntrr Prfrndrd.
Property upoa whl.-h Jl.OOO.Oio hag been
spent la of sufficient Importance to be
allowed to come Into the city," he said.
"I feel It Is necejsary to allow thla
romceuiy to bring thla line In.- even if it
la at a eejcrtAce. Tbe company dees not
want to furnish local evrT'ce, but I
thick it should be forced to give local
service. The Montavllla people aay they
are suffering from lark of car service.
They want a direct route Into the city.
In case the curbing Is to be set back to
widen the street, the company should pay
for It and for the repavlng of the street.
The franchise call for the use of Iron
poles for the power wires, but d' not
provide for placing tha power wires un
derground. F p. Wartrtg. who said he was on o!d
rsTmad man. said the Sullivan Uulrh
rente waa feasible and that a 1 per cent
cade wnuld take the line from Sulli
van's Gulch Into Oregon street. "It la a
rher route from the standpoint of con
struction." be aalJ.
It. M. Cake, who tb elected chairman,
protested agslnrt Hancock arreet. be
cause the roadway la only 3 feet wide,
and tracks would leave only three or four
feet on each stile In the clear, unless tha
trees were cut down and the street re
parked. Cominlttre Has Several ii cm here.

i ere not opposing the Mount
II.od Rallwar In any manner." de
riared H. S Josselyn. president of t he
Portland Railway. Light Tower
Company, last night In reply to atate
ments that he and his associates have
been active la the effort to block the
new suburban line.
-It Is our policy alwaya to assist In
lernrban lines and we have given the
Mount Hood road every encourage
ment, although we do not want It to
operate over streets already used by
e-ir own lines to such an extent that
traffic Is becoming congested.
"For that reason we object to their
use ef Stark street, aa it Is our Inten
tion to operate the cars that cross tha
Fteel bridge and the Bumslde bridge
over that line to keep them from
crossing Morrison and Waahlngton
streets, which already have all the
traffic that they will bear.
Two Koutr Offered.
-We are willing to allow them to
coma In over either the Cazadero line
from C.resham or over the Hawthorne
line from Mount Tabor. Hither of
hose roites would bring them orer
the H-wthorne bridge.
"Our objection to their operating
over streets that we occupy In Irvlng
ton.ls based on the fact that our lines
th-re are narrow gauge and we do not
want them to put In standard gauge
trucks. Any other route that would
lead over the new Broadway bridge
would meet with our approval.
"On the West fide we have sug
gested that they operate on Seventh
street to Flanders, completing their
loop on Second street to Salmon and
Tenth, using the Oregon Electrlo
tracks.
"There Is no reaaon why we ehould
oppose the Mount Hood line, as It will
be a great alJ to us. All lnterurban
roads feed Into our system and we are
eager to assist them In entering the
city, providing tbey do not affect our
service.
"The Mount Hood Una cannot be a
competitor to us. and wa have never
considered It as such. Therefore, why
should we try to keep It outr"
Mayor Favors Kroadway.
Mayor Plmon believes that the
Broadway suggestion la the most fea
sible solution of the problem, and said
yesterday that he would favor thts In
preference to the tearing up of any
other street Jrvlngton for the use
of the Mount i'-od road.
"I am hearuiy la favor of the en
trance of the Mount Hood road Into
Portland." said the Mayor, "and am
ready to facilitate the matter In every
manner. I think tha best route for the
raw road Is over Broadway and believe
that It can be worked out. I do net
know whether the Portland Railway.
Light & Power Company objects to the
use of Its Broadway trarka by another
rompany for a reasonable compensa
tion, but If It does. I think the right
could be secured anyway by condem
nation proceedings. It seems to me
this method would ba far better than
to choose another atreet In Irvlngton
and to tear 4t qp and discommode tha
resldenta thereon. I never favor dis
turbing people In their bomrs where
It ran be avoided.
"I am glad the Mount Hood Company
Is to enter Portland, for It is such en
terprises that we need here. I want
to see the company get a direct routs
Into the heart of the city, and I would
also like to see it enter Into active
competition with the Portland Railway.
Light Power Company all over the
city.
Added Lines Beneficial.
"It would be an excellent thing for
the people to have Increased streetcar
facilities and many suburbs could be
built up better In this manner. I
would not like to see the new line con
fined to sny one section of the city.

Jeresae W. Campbell
After being an invalid for seven

dence. 41S Harrison street, spinal
trouble being the cause of death.
Recently Mr. Campbell suffered a
breakdown.
He wss born August 10. 1159.
In Hocklns; County. Ohio. He was
united In marriage with Miss
Myra Pangle at Lima, O.. In ISSs.
and came to Oregon that year.
Upon arrival 'n Portland he be
came associated with the Wil
lamette Bridge Railway Company
and waa later superintendent of
that line. He was also superin
tendent of the Morrison bridge
wben It waa first thrown open to
the public. Later be was

City St Suburban Railway Com
pany. He la survived by his widow,
his daughter Mary Leila Camp
bell, aged 18: two aisters. Mrs.

and Mrs. U. W. Priest, of San
Francisco, and a brother. H. C
Campbell. The funeral services
will be held Saturday afternoon
at J o'clock from the family
residence. Burial will be at Klv
ervlew Cemetery.
The Mayor made a special trip to
Irvlngton yesterday afternoon to In
spect the district particularly aa to the
railroad problem, and became more
than ever convinced that Broadway Is
the proper street for the Mount Hood
line. He regards all of the others as
being too narrow, and Is strongly op
posed to cutting up pavements and lay.
Ing tracks over any of tbem If It can
In any way be avoided.
City Attorney Grant yesterday ad
dressed a communication to City Audi
tor Uarbur. In which he said that ha
arpproved of the ordinance for the
Mount Hood Railway tt Power Com
pany aa drafted, except that It did not
provide for any compensation for the
use of the Broadway bridge. The City
Council committee on atrceta Is con
sidering the franchise. Mr. Grant
called attention to the fact that the
act creating the bridge made It the
duty of the Council to fix the rate to
ba charged.
Hancock Protrata to Re Heard.
Tbe street committee of the Council
will give consideration to tba protests
of Hancock-street residents and those
objecting to the use of that thoroughfare
at 1 o'clock this afternoon at tbe City
Hall. People from all of the other
s '-reels under consideration have been
heard previously. Weldler. Halsey and
Brasee have been eliminated, and Knott
Is still favored by soma of the members
of the committee.
Councilman Kubll Is mors Interested In
securing a clause In the franchise mak
ing It obligatory upon the company to
operate cjlts at frequent Intervals to the
city limits, no matter where the line may
enter. He is urging this strongly In be
half of the realdenla of Montavllla and
Center Addition, who. he declares, have
Inadequate streetcar service.
Tbe proposal to permit the Mount Hood
line to run over the tracks of the Port
land Railway, Light A Power Company
on Broadway baa Impressed nearly all
of tho members of the street committee
favorably, as they feel that this Is the
beet means of solving the difficult prob
lem. Some believe, however, that It
would be better to have two separate
lines, and have new territory tapped by
the Mount Hood road, as they think it
would be of great advantage to the peo
ple of the section through .which it
would penetrate.
South East Side Talks Bonus.
The Brooklyn Improvement Club, In
session last night, voted to ue lis best
endeavors to secure the Mornt Hood
Railroad through the South fast Side
and over the proposed Woodwsrd-ave-nue-Meade-atreet
bridge across the Wil
lamette River, and it was deculrd to un
dertake to raise a bonus of fXOOi). A. L.
Barbur declared that ths p'an was feasi
ble. He said that the company could
run Its tracks on Knst Thirty-ninth
s'.ieet. which extends from Koso CUy
Park to tbe site of the Reed Insti
tute, to Woodward avenue or the Powell
road and then turn west over tr.e
bridge. Rev. Father Gregory, James
Ruddlman and others favored the project.
Mr. Barbur. Father Gregory and Mr.
Hi. antrum were appointed to call in of
ficiate of the company. It waa an
nounced that South Mount Tabor would
raise a bonus of Sla.COO to outain the road
for that district and Dr. Hamilton
Meade waa added to the committee.
Young; Man Would Kill Self.
Grant Williams. 21, tried to commit
suicide at an early hour this morning
by taking an overdose of cocaine, but
la now at Ft. Vincent's Hospital and
probably will live. Williams recently
separated from his wife and was despondent.
ELKS COMMITTEES
SECURE BIG SUMS
Partial Reports Indicate Total
Is About $80,000, but Much
More Is Needed.
WORK BEING DONE QUIETLY
Effort to Got Grand Lodge Conven
tion In 191 S Grows In IVrvor
Kvory Day Returns to '
Oregon Incalculable.
Though only $1787.60 was reported to
Treasurer Van Schuyver. of the Elk's
11S Convention Committee, as the re
sult of yesterday's ran vara for the
H25.000 fund to entertain the Grand
Lodge In ll- only three committees.
In addition to the seven which reported
on Wednesday, have filed their collec
tions with the treasurer, and none of
these have made a complete canvass.
All told there are fI committees at
work soliciting funds for the bringing;
of the 191! convention to Portland,
but It seems thst most of the commit
tees prefer to make a complete report
before making their subscriptions pub
lic, and are holding bsck until they
have made a complete canvass of the
business and mercantile establishments.
The treasurer now has a list of sub
scriptions amounting to $15,638.60.
turned In, by representatives of but
eight committees, and. on thla basis.
Mr. Van Schuyver and Secretary Reed
figure that approximately 130.000 has
been subscribed. The figuring Is based
on the supposition thst the committees
not yet beard from have performed as
well as those which have already re
ported. Wonders Will Ite Noted.
On all sides general comment Is heard
of the vast benefits to be derived from
the coming of at least 100.000 Elks,
who will visit Portland and the North
west during the Grand Ixdgs reunion.
If held In Portland, and all lines of In
dustry will profit for the reason that
a large percentage of Elks, or their
friends, will remove to the country
which offers such glorious advantages
ss will be observed by the throng of
visitors.
The opening of the Oregon country
now In progress will be noted and the
country In general Is bound to benefit
by thla big convention. That the Elka'
Grand Lodge will bring more people to
Portland for one week In July, 1912,
than will any other event. Is generally
admitted, and It Is safe to presume that
many of the visitors will either remain
or return in ths immediate future.
Outside Aid Not Asked.
. At the regular meeting of the Port
land lodge held last night partial re
ports of the canvass were made In the
general discussion of the lodge, and on
all sides the greatest of enthusiasm
waa displayed. The proposition to ask
the Legislature to make an appropria
tion toward this fund was frowned
down by the members, who are anxious
to make this distinctly a Portland af
fair, and the Elks believe that the
business men of the city will do their
part and follow the example set by the
lodge Itself when it voted $25,000 out
of Its own treasury toward this sum.
The following letter from the La
Grande. Or, lJdfre demonstrates the In
terest being taken In the Portland
Elk's campaign by other lodges In the
state:

Speaker Says Women Recognizing
Maternal Instinct and Becoming
"Pup Nurses" Pitiable.
"Nothlna Is more pitiable than a
woman, endowed with maternal In
stincts by the Almighty, who uncon
sciously recognizes that Instinct by
becoming a pup nurse." i This. In sub
stance, was the statement made by
Bishop Edwin H. Hughes in his ad
dress yesterday morning- before the
Methodist Sunday School Institute in
Taylor-street Methodist Church. He
was speaking; on "Tbe Parent aa a
Teacher."
He led up to his statement by saying-
Uiat he waa Impressed by the large
number of hotels In San Francisco, and
inquired of a number of business men
at different times why so many hos
telrles were being- erected. The an
swer was, he said, that people are
breaking up housekeeping- and taking
their families to live In apartments.
Thus, he said, the Janitor has been
deputized to do the work which the
father and fmother formerly did for
the boy arid girl In the home. He re
marked, that he Is the father of eight
children, and that he was not at, all
ashamed of the fact, even when he was
in the company of "select" people who
have no children.
Years ago. said the Bishop, the parent-
waa everything to the child. The
mother jnade all the child's clothes and
was the child's Instructor. Today the
clothes are made by machinery, and
the public and Sunday school teachers
have taken the place of the parents
in Instructing the children. The rea
son for the opposition to the Sunday
school system of Robert Ralkes, the
organizer of the Sunday school, said
Bishop Hufrhes, was that this would
give parents an opportunity -to become
indolent so far as Instruction of their
children was concerned. He said the
parent ought to remain the child's In
structor, leaving the teachers to sup
plement the work. Many parents, he
said, do not even know the teachers
of their children. He paid a glowing
tribute to both public and Sunday
school teachers.
Bishop Hughes spoke again last
night, before leaving for San Francis
co, taking for his subject, "Tho Prob
lem of the Man."
Mrs. Antoinette Lamereaux spoke
yesterday morning on "The Rights of
Childhood." The child has a right to
be Instructed before he Is 25 years
old. when habits are formed, she said.
Rev. Edgar Blake, D. D., assistant
secretary of the Methodist Board of
Sunday Schools, spoke yesterday after
noon on "The Boy Problem." saying
this can be solved by taking an active

Merits of the Autopiano the Latest, Best and Most
Highly Improved Player Piano Now Being Sold by Eilers

We decided some time ago to discontinue selling the Pianola Piano. The
development of the Autopiano, containing vital and exclusive improvement,
made this. necessary. We sell these new instruments upon our famous little
profit on each piano principle. The 'days of arbitrary high prices are gone,
as they are gone, too, on regular pianos and grands.
Numerous of our dealers throughout the West, upon seeing these later
improved Player Pianos, immediately arranged for the agency.
Many of these dealers do not have the showroom to display many differ
ent makes at one time. Several of our own stores are situated likewise.
In order to enable them to commence the sale of the Autopiano and kin
dred instruments at once, we agreed to take off their hands whatever Pianola
Pianos tbey carried. These Pianola Pianos have been shipped to Portland.
Most 6f them are the very latest designs, absolutely new instruments, with
"88 "-note actions and combination "65 and 88-note actions. There are also
some second-hand instruments . that have been taken in part payment for
Decker and Lester Player Pianos or the Eilers De Luxe Player Pianos, and
the higher-priced styles of the Autopiano. All of these instruments are being
closed" out now, regardless of value.- Pay cash or as best suits your con
venience. ' '
THESE LOW PBICES WILL NEVER AGAIN BE POSSIBLE.
We call special attention to our present closing-out sale prices, never
heard of heretofore on these Piano and other Player Pia-nos. 1 '
We are closing out all our Weber Pianola Player Pianos. Some will go
as low as $470.00.
We close out all our Stuyvesant Pianola Pianos. Some will go for as
little as $360.00.
We close out all our Steck Pianola Pianos. Some will go for as Lttle
