He was In Portland nine years sgo

give aid aad advice to mercantile es

"Nature and providence have endowed
you with a great country out here, al
though with Insufficient population to
utilize the natural resources, but that
will come In time," said Mr. Holts. T
haven't had much time to devote to a
study of conditions here, but as I ae
It the country Is as good a the cities;
and Portland Is an Ideal city.
The Northwest country stands in the
very highest plane In the eyes of the
Kastern financiers. When the Union Pa
cific Railroad announced, through Its
president, the double-tracking of the
system U thla Const and the spending
of 373.Wu.ono. we had the most note
worthy expression of confidence In the
future that the country has heard foe a
long time.
I am more optimistic of the
future than I have been for several
year. Of course. In district like Port
land, with Its booming territory, there
has been very little unessiness. but In
the money centers It has been different.
Viewing the Nation over. I believe the
country Is more proeperoua now thsn
at any time since the financial flurry
of 1S07. ,
In Portland I find business being con
ducted on the moat up-to-date lines.
I doubt If there can be found any
more finely equipped mercantile etore
In the country than the Portland mer
chants can boaau"

CORONER'S JURY ACCUSES
JOSEPH LA ROSE.
Eve-Witness of Tragedy at Christen
ins; J Held to Assist In
Prosecution.
A Coroner's Jury, which yeaterday In
vestigated the shooting of Domlnlco
Bonelll. an Italian laborer, at 675 Hood
street. In the progress of a christening
Sunday afternoon, returned a verdict at
:45 last night declaring the belief that
Bonelll's death, which occurred at St.
Vincent's Hoapltal early Monday morn
ing, was due to bullet wounds Inflicted
by Joaeph La Rose.
Nick Caradino, a young Italian, the
only eye-witness of the tragedy to
testify. Is being held at the City Jail
as a witness. In the prosecution of La
Roae. whom Detectlvea Mallett and
Craddoek hope to capture today. La
Rose la said to have gone to Caxadero
to viatt a relative. He la a French
Canadian who recently arrived In Port
land from Canada.
Evidence pointing toward Joe La
Roae, who waa one of the boardera
In the houae. waa extracted from Nick
Tomtno. proprietor of the place, but
hla description does not tally In any
reapect with that given by Caraddlno.
Tomlno, while reluctant, aald that
after he had refuaed to allow Bonelll
mora drink he took a demijohn and
went away, returning aoon with a gal
lon of wine. Then Bonelll. La Rose
and another man were drinking In the
kitchen a few minutes before the
shooting.
Tomlno did not remember having
seen La Rose after the murder, and La
Rose did not aleen In hla room that
night, but left hla baggage and haa
not returned. Tomlno aald he thought
that La Roae had gone to visit hla
brother-in-law at Caxadero. La Roae
came to Portland from Canada about
four months ago and la about 65 years
old.
While disposed to take the state
ments of the witnesses with great cau
tion, believing them to be Influenced
by fear or other motives, the detec
tives will act upon the information and
the Jury's verdict.
