BUSY WITH STOCK
In First Month of Operation
Oregon Trunk Vill Have
Carried 100 Carloads.

Central Oregon Farmer Waiting
Long for llallroad It ash CatUo
and Sberp to Market Steady
Growth Is Expected.
Fully 100 carloads of cattle and
sheep will be shipped Into Portland
from the territory drained by the nrw-
ly-constructed Oregon Trunk Una be
fore the end of March.
While officials of the new line have
reason to believe that handing of live
stock In large quantities will be a reg
ular Item of freight traffic, they realize
t! t the hettjr handling- for March U
not a fair estimate of what mar be ex
pected throughout the remainder of the
year.
Many farmer and atockmen of Cen
trai uregon have been holding their
rattle and sheep all Winter, that they
rr.lcht take advantage of the reduced
freight rates over tne direct line Into
Portland. As soon as this surplus sup.
ply of stock Is removed the trade will
become normal. However, It la ex
petted that the movement will be an
Important Item In the road's business
every month and that It will grow
gradually as the country develops.
First Shipment Early.
The first car of sheep wss shipped
Into Portland from Madras Monday.
February so. before freight traffic was
Inaugurated regularly. Several other
cars have been received here since then
and traveling freight agents of the new
line are now soliciting the shippers
tor additional carload lots.
FCeports were received In the gen.
eral freight offices yesterday that "S
cars have been booked for shipment
before the end of March. It Is expected
that the 100 mark will be reached with
ease.
Most of the stock coming into Port
lind Is ready for slaughter, but some
of it must be fattened before going to
the stockyards.
Now that the railroad has entered
the Iwscbutes Valley, stockralslng la
expected to become one of the principal
Industries of that section. Heretofore
farmers were discouraged In preparing
cattle and sheep for market because of
the difficulties In placing them on the
railroad. It waa necessary to drive
them many ml across the country
and the trip had a damaging effect on
t.' stork, causing the animals to lose
many pounda In weight.
Hard-Trip pays Over.
Now It Is possible to place them on
ears one morning and have them de
livered In Portland the following morn.
Ing over the Oregon Trunk and North
Hank roads. This will preclude the ne
cessity of unloading the stock for feed
and water, and will reduce the cost
greatly. Farmers thos will receive full
market price for their products and
will benefit by the sale of full weight
Instead of suffering by shrinkage In
sending stock across tlie sagebrush to
the railroad.
Many Central Oregon farmers have
expressed an Intention of going Into
the stockralslng business on a large
scale because of the advantage In
transportation they wtll have. While
the cay of the big cattle ranch Is over.
It Is believed tliat more stock than
ever will be produced In proportion to
the acreage.
The Or gon Trunk Is preparing to
handle this class of freight In large
nuantltlrs. Special double-deck stock
cars for handling sheep have been sent
up the Deschutes Valley.
Facilities for loading stork have
been provided at Metollus. Madras and
Mecca. Ijtrge yards have been built,
feeding bins have been provided and
gangways leading to the boxcars have
been constructed. At Maupln. Sherar
end ITKen accommodations for han
dling sheep and cattle have been es
tablished, bat extensive yards have not
yet been built. Improved facilities will
be established at all these places, and
as the line Is extended south similar
Improvements will be provided at all
stock-loading points.

"All right." said Horger. who was

Sheriff Stevens mounted to the rear

Declaring that the long and honorable
life of the late Judge George II. Wil
liams and his great record of service
to the city, state and Nation are such
that Portland should provide some means
of perpetuating bis memory. Mayor
Simon yesterday morning pleaded with
the members of Uie Park Board not to
recommend to the City Council that the
park at Mount Tabor be not called "Wil
liams." The bos rd Anally filed a peti
tion of Mount Tabor residents and a
communication from the Council for a
change In the name.
Shortly after the death of Judge Wil
liams, the City Council named the park
at Mount Tabor In his honor. A move
ment was started to erect a suitable
monument there to his memory- It waa
abandoned only at the earnest request
of his family.
The board referred to Superintendent
Mlsche the subject of providing suitable
improvements for Miliums Park, and
he will report at a later date his recom
mendations, lie Is opposed to play
ground features for this property, al
though some of the people living nesr
there favor them. His idea Is that It
should be in every sense purely a park.

Insurgent Branch, Headed by W". M.
Davis, Directs Energy to Prevent
Selection of Harrison Allen as
Head of Body.
Two factions of the Multnomah Bar
Association are lined up for what
promises to be the bitterest fight In
the history of the organization at the
adjourned annual meeting to be held
tonight at the Courthouse., when the
election of officers is to take place.
A mild Insurrection was Incited at
the annual meeting of the organisation
Tuesday night, when l.wrlson Allen
received a pluralty rote for president of
the association. Alien la on the legal stall
of the Oregon Klectrio Itallway Com
pany, and for that reason his oppon
ents accuse him of being Interested in
behalf of the corporations and they
fear, they say, that he will take ad
vantage. If elected, of his position to
fight various political reforms, such as
the Initiative and referendum, and
many other features of the "Oregon
System."
The Insurgent element of the asso
ciation has concentrated Its support on
A. K. Clark, vto has agreed to be a
candidate for the position. It is ad
mitted by leaders of both factions of
tho association that personally Allen
and Clark are men of excellent quali
ties, and. while political Issues are
making the contest spirited. It Is as
sured that there will be no personali
ties enter Into the fight.
At the meeting Tuesday night. It was
found that, there were only 23 mem
bers present, while a legal quorum is
15. Thus the election of Mr. Allen at
that time was declared Illegal. Allen
1C Joy and Charles Schnabel were men
tioned as candidates at the Tuesday
night meeting, but both have with
drawn from the race, and are giving
their support to Mr. Clark.
One of the most energetic of the In
surgent faction Is W. M. Davis. Mr.
Davis explained his attitude yesterday
by praising the personal qualities of
Mr. Allen, but declaring that as Mr.
Allen Is affiliated with a corporation
he Is almost sure to be Influenced by
their demands.
Mr. Davis called attention yesterday
to the speech made by F. V. Holman,
attorney for the Portland. Railway,
Light & Power Company, while ho was
president of the Oregon State Bar As
sociation, In which Mr. Holman made a
strong attack on the Initiative and ref-
rendum svstem. This speecn, air.
Davia said, had been printed In the re
port of the association and went broad
cast over the country as representative
nf the attitude of the association. It
Is the fear that Mr. Allen may take
such advantage of his position, said
Mr Davis, that he Is opposed to nis De
ing elected president of the Multnomah
County Bar Association.
"When Mr. Allen first came to Ore
gon we became friends." said Mr. Davis
yesterday. I did wnat i couia i in
Him in nractlce at St Helens, and I
Kn aiwavs liked him as a man, but
almply on grounds of policy I am op-
posea iv nil dtiuh
When Mr. Allen wss interviewed yes
terdiv he denied that he would represent
corporation Interests If he Is elected as
president of the bar association.
"I don't know why I should be ln-
enrvacltated from serving as president
of the bar association simply because
I am one of the legal representatives oi
a corporation." said Mr. Allen, "i nave
agreed to become a candidate for the
position upon tne request oi a. nmuci
of the members of the bar association.
The men who have urged me to accept
the place In case I am elected, are not

SHOW IS BIG SUCCESS
'MADE IN OREGOX" EXHIBIT
SEEN" Br THOUSANDS.
I'or First Time Surh Display Has
Hoon ITcld In Department Store
West of Mississippi River.
The "Made In Oregon" exposition which
ham been In progress on 4he fourth floor
of the Meier & Frank store for the past
week, and which will continue for at
toast another week, has proved to be
one of the most attractive exhibits of
the kind ever shown In this city. It in
the first time that such a show has been
held In a department atore west of the
Mississippi River.
The show Is a worthy representation oi
what the Manufacturers Association is
dolus; to build up the manufacturing in
dustries of the city and state, and the
various exhibits represent some special
feature of nearly every line of goods
manufactured here, ao that the visitors
to the show have a good Idea of what
our fiictorles are turning out. The exposi
tion also will have the effect of instill
ing Into the Oregon people the Idea that
they can get "made In Oregon" goods
for almost every need.
The working exhibits attract a large
number of people at all hours of the
day, and tonight, being Saturday, it Is
expected that several thousand persons
will vkilt the spacious showroom to see
the exhibits. The principal working ex
hibits are those of Neustadter Broex,
the Pettlt Feather & Bedding Company,
the Portland Rice Milling Company, the
Northwest Blowpipe Company, the West
ern Mantle Corapiny. the Coin Machine
Manufacturing Company, TSlllamette
Tent & Awning Company and the Paclflo
Stoneware Company.
A large number of exhibitors are dem-
onstrstlng their goods and these booths
are aJwaya surrounded oy persons to
learn more of the superiority of "made
In Oregon" goods. One of the unique
features of the exposition le a model
steel bridge built on the lines of the
new Broadway bridge. This exhibit is
shown by tho Psclllc Iron Works, The
bridge Is a working model and shows
exactly how the bascule type of bridge
opens. It is airrereni irom anyining now
In operation In the rsclnc Northwest
euid is of a design highly approved by
engineers.
The exhibit of leather products is
worthy of special mention. W. H. Me
Monies & Co. harnera manufacturers.
show some fine examples of hurneas and
their product Indicates why Portland to
day Is the second largest harness-making
city in the United states. Another leather
exhibit la thst of the Davls-Preultt Com
pany, manufacturers of lesther belts for
large and small machinery. Some of the
belts ahown are of the waterproof variety
and are two feet In mldth.
The cloth exhibit of the Thoma Kay
Company of Salem and the uniform and
ciat ciuiiiiiig vAiiii'ii vi iiisi if i.uuif r ;
Hon attract considerable attention. The
cloth shown Is really very fine and com 1
pares favorably with the best products of
Eastern cloth mills and shows what ore.
gon can do in the way of making textiles.
The waterproof products of the Coopey
factory are ahown made up. Fine woolen
clothe are made perfectly waterproof by
thks form without Injuring or In any
way changli.g the appearance of the
fabric.
The furniture exhibits attract a great
deal of attention. They have been a
groat educator during the week, many
visitors commenting upon and expressing
surprise that the furniture made by the
local factories compares favorably with
the best product of the celebrated Grand
Rapids furniture factories.
One exhibitor shows a splendid line of
"made In Oregon" stoves and another
shon'i some safes and vault doors that
are the equal of the product of any
Eastern safe manufacturer. The exhibi
tion of building materials Is especially
representative. The Central Door
Lumber Company and the Multnomah
Lumber 4c Box Company have splendid
exhibits of mill products. Native and Im
ported woods are shown completely
finished for the construction of home
and the finishing of offices, while the
ssbestos products of the Glllen-Cham-bers
Company and the brass products of
the Oregon Brass Works show what
Portland factories In these lines can do.
1RG1' NOT CREDITED
NO ONE COULD "DELIVER" ORE
GON", IS OPINION.
Positively Xo Truth In Colliers
Story, Says Mr. Fulton Xo Prom
Ue Made by Williams.
C. W. Fulton. ex-United States Senator,
does not credit the story published In
Colliers Weekly to the effect that Ralph
E. Williams, Republican National Com
mitteeman for Oregon, has promised a
solid Taft delegation In 1912 In return
for the President's promise to thwart
the will of Senator Bourne, who wishes
the removal of P. 9. Malcolm, collector
of customs at Portland, and Elmer B.
Colwell. United States Marshal for Ore
gon. Neither does Jumes M. Ambrose,
C. W. Nottingham. W. J. Clemens nor
James D. Abbott credit it.
Laughter of the kind which is pro
voked only by a sense of the ridiculous
burst from Mr. Fulton when he was
asked If he credited Colliers story. He
said he did not believe there were half
doxen men In Oregon who believed
they could make good such a promise.
"I know positively," declared Mr. Ful
ton, "that there is not a particle of truth
in the statement. There may be some
persons who believe they could make
good on such a deal, but If there are they
surely must be suffering from some pecu
liar brand of Insanity."
'I heartily agree with the ideas on
the question held by other Republicans
as published In The Oregonlan of this
morning." said James M. Ambrose. "I
do not believe there la a word of truth
In the story. Under present conditions it
would be Impossible to make good on
such a bargain, so why any penson
should preunie to make it I fall to
understand."
'Bourne has merely been getting a
little free advertising of the brand which
fits in with the ideas of the editor of
Colliers Weekly," said C. W. Notting
ham. "I do not think that anyone In
Oregon would be fool enough to believe
that he could deliver the delegation for
whomever he wished. Personally, I re
gard the article as an underhanded slap
at President Taft."
Tf some one will explain to me some
way of Inducing men to attend a National
convention as delegates and there break
the Instructions given them by the peo
ple at the advisory primary I might take
some stock In the assertion that Williams
his promised to deliver the delegation,"
said James D, Abbott. "I think Colliers
simply publishing what is termed a
pipe yam.' I believe that Williams Is
too Intelligent a man to take himself
seriously as this would Indicate if It
were true, xr.e delegates are to be
elected by the people snd instructed for
whom to vote snd It would be absurd
