"The present want of Oregon." said Mr.
WlthTcombe. "Is a better llnlHtied product
snd the primary motive of this show Is
to give object lessons and practical d-jn-rnexratlons
of the Intrinsic value of welU
Bnasjied livotovk of the right type. In
tMs respect there has been a marked
Improvement since the establishment of
s keen, active and competitive rreirket at
North Portland. La nee ma the livestock
Industry of the Northwest Is now. it Is
yet In Its Infanry. Kange conditions will
give aay wholly to farm conditions,
which will mean a much larger produc
tion of a better quality. Livestock must
be the bas.s of succeavful agriculture.
The soli must be fed. and there Is ro
better way of doing tr.la than by raisins;
llv-regock. Instesd of the old familiar
method of producing rattle upon a thou
sand hills, they will b produced upon
lAms farms. I'nder farm conditions, bel
ter methods will be employed and. of
course, better stock will be produced.
The In'luence of trls show should be
far-reuchlng. It should nove a leading
tactcr in bringing about a better under
standing among the growers as to nurk't
demama. It wl'.l afford tangible means
for the growers! to make correct com
parison. Ti-us ll"e sl-.ow will be edu
cational in the most prucilcal way po-
ble. Ti e many g od Influences result
ing should prove a strong Impetus for
a much larger and better livestock pro

Special Commitlee Believes Knough
Money Should Be Secured at Out
set . for Project.
At a meeting of tha special anfll
torlum committee of the Commercial
Club with membera of the City Coun
cil yesterday It waa decided to ask tha
Council to place upon the ballot next
June a proposition to bond the city
for tsOO.OO. instead of 1500.000. to
build an auditorium. The auditorium
project was discussed In all lta phases
and some changes, suggested by tha
Councllmen. were Incorporated In the
measure.
Those members of the City Council
present at the luncheon, which was
held In the dlntng-room rtf the Com
mercial Club, expressed themselves as
being heartily In favor of tha plan
and said they would vote today at tha
meeting that the amendment to the
charter be submitted to a vote. It was
derided to have tha bonds cover a
period of 10 years, draw 4 per cent In
terest and to create a sinking; fund of
jjooo a year for the redemption of the
bonds.
In addition to tha 11000 It was de
rided to have all the profits of tha
auditorium paid over to the sinking
fund so that In 30 years the bonds
may tve redeemed by the rentals re
ceived from the auditorium.

Myers declared that he waa storing; it

sion.
Earlier Connections Good.
It is said that Myers was at one time
connected with one of the largest
banks In San Francisco and that he was
with that Institution 11 years. After
severing his connection he started In
the banking business independently, or
ganising among; others the Japanese
American Bank of Los Angeles, which
came to an untimely end.
When Myers came to Oregon in 190
and organised the Oerman-American
Bank vigorous efforts were made by
bankers of this city and a local periodi
cal devoted to banking Interests to
force him from the state because of his
California record. Myers nnajly re
signed the presidency of the German
American Bank, since absorbed by Ash
ley A Kumelln. but for a time Insisted
on remaining as one of the directors of
the institution as a vindication of his
character. ,
Before the state banking law went
Into effect in 190, Myers secured char
ters for banks, only a few of which,
among them bain the Ocr man -American
BanK of Portland; the Mount Scott
Bank, of Lents; the Bank of Beaverton:
tha Scandinavian-American Bank, of
Astoria, and the Washington County
Bank, of Banks. Or, were actually or
ganised and opened for business. The
charters of the remainder were de
clared canceled this Winter by Acting
Governor Bowerman for failure to pay
the state corporation tax.
Myers" scheme, declares State Bank
Examiner Wrteht. was to secure bank
charters and sell them.
Banks Organized for Sale.
"Myers Incorporated these numerous
banks, not so much for the purpose of
eventually organising them, but rather
to sell the nam's to other banks." said
Mr. Wright to the Salem correspondent
of The orcgonlan yesterday. "For in
stance, he Incorporated the Italian-American
Bank of Portland, and when .lie
learned that the Italian-American BanK
of San Francisco wished to establish a
branch there he Immediately started to
organise for the purpose of selling to
the San Francisco bank. Evidently his
price was too high. Then he determined
to establish tbe bank anyway.
The first papers In connection with
an effort to have this bank recognised
by the banking department of the state
were filed in this office June 17 of last
year. He stated that he had S&.000 capi
tal paid up I investigated and was sat
teded that he had not complied with the
law and I not 1 fled him on July 25 that

WAR IS NOT WIDESPREAD
D. M. Dunn) Saya Insurrection Is
Not Felt In Mexico's Capital.
Describing the Insurrection In Mex
ico aa being a thing almost unheard
of In Mexico City and saying that a
traveler going through there would
not know such a thing as war was
taking place. David M. Dunne at the
Rotary Club dinner westerday In Rich
ard's Cafe gave an Interesting descrip
tion of the work of the lnsurreetos
along the border and declared that
their destructive work was confined to
burning railway bridges and making
assaults upon small villages. He said
that the rebels were unorganized and
mostly were bands of guerillas who
were out for the pillage rather than
to reform the government, although
there were a few good men in. the
ranks who believed that they had a
mission.
The mobilization of the troops of
the United States along the border
was having a good effect, he thought,
for It stopped the bsnds from going
from one side to the other. The chief
grievance of the lnsurreetos. Mr. Dunne
said, was that they hsd no voice In
the republic or In the election of its
officials. It one wished to have a pri
vate dance, he waa compelled to ask
the government for permission. This
was cited as one of the many obstruc
tions to the liberties of the people.
Will A. Knight acted as chairman of
the day. .
