THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JULY 25, 191, 155 OREGON TS WILL BE BOOSTED Commercial Club Plans Cam paign to Promote Use of Things Made at Home. MAILORDERS FIRMS MARK Fastness The-y Condnrt Held Bad for Consumer and for Home Mer chant JVho Are Entitled to Trade of Home People. -Orea-on products for Oreon people. ! tfte !ocin to be adopted by th Portland Commercial Club In a cam paign to be waged In the nar future for the more general ue of Oregon prodnrts. t C. Chapman, msnsger of the duo. announced yesterday that he J-as been working for ome time on the campaign and la now vnearly ready to make public hl plana and ask for a state-wide aupport of the move. The plan l aimed at unscrupulous Inill-oM'r houe and at what are termed unscrupulous housewlTes and business people who buy produrta from ether states when Oreaon producta of the tame quality ran be purchased at home at lea coat. It Is believed the campaign will bring bout much better condition In manu facturing lines, and will go a long war toward Inducing more factorlea to lo cate here and take advantage of some of the nuroeroue Industrial possibilities. Oakland Given Pointer. Manager Chapman haa been. In com munication for some time pt with A. A. Iennlfon. secretary of the Oakland Chamber of Commerce, and haa eerured some valuable Information on the way the home-producta campaign In Cali fornia haa been run. He Is also In com munication with the Manufacturere' Association of Utah and the associa tion of other states where aucceesful campaign hare been carried on. "At preaent." said Mr. Chapman." Portland la buying altogether too mane thtnge from the East and from outside Western state. Large amounts of money are going to support the fac tories which do Oregon no good. Every dollar pnt In the East la a dollar lost for the Weat. and Is a dollar needlessly srnent In Injuring our local factories. Of course there Is a limit to oar patron age. The only home factorlea which Mould be patronised are those which turn oat standard goods and sell them t a figure the same or less than out side products. Quality and price must be considered In all caeea. Only Worthy Firm Boosted. -TV will not ask for the aupport by linme peopla of unscrupulous business concerns merely because they put out liorae producta. but we will give every effort to the promotion of those con cerns which turn out good products nd which can be euppnrted by Oregon people with no greater exertion than the Eastern concerns. In thle way we will build up our smokestack district and furnish employment the year round for thousands of pwople. It will be In vesting money In home products for the betterment of home conditions. As far as mall order bouaes are concerned. I believe they are an evil which should be abolished. Picture In books .f goods for sale look good, but they don't always look like the article Itself. In torn districts of the state 1 believe the mall order catalogues oc cupy a place on top of the family IHble. Ttila all means the support of the East ern buslneea Interests to the Injury of home concerns. It hurts business. With our campaign we Intend by extensive advertising In various ways to show pen pi the evils of supporting Eastern concerns. It may take some time to pread tha new, but I believe the peo ple wilt appreciate the facts when they re presented in black and white. They have la other states, and I think they will here." Many Article May Be Home Made. It Is aald that at present many arti cle are being liniorted l'h could be made at home. The main reason they cannot be manufactured here Is because the Eastern concern have worked up too strong a support. It Is eald. In the list of articles named by the Commer cial Club a being possible of manufac ture here are the f.tioinu: ;iass. or namental brlrk. furniture, woolen good, carpets, metal good, building fixture, machinery. hoes. clocks and watches, wagons and buggies, harness, building materials and cement, .""mi of these articles are manufactured here at present, but could be manufactured on a much larger scale. It la satd. under more favorable conditions. It Is believed the Development League will take a band In the home-products rampalgn. In an effort to get the sup port of that organisation arrangements are being made to bring the matter up In a forcible manner at the convention at Astoria In Augt-st. It trbnhly ill I by the Portland delera tlon. and there seems o be no doubt that It will receive ananimoue eupport- COPYRIGHT CASE HEARD Journal Publishing Company Io ntnrrer Overruled by Court.

When the rase came up In the Municipal Court Judge Taswell held that evidence of the existence of the stairway waa not enough under the ordinance: that tes timony must also how that It was used for an Immoral purpose, to bring about a conviction. A measure was first brought before the liquor license committee, provid ing that the ordinance, which revoked Parker'a license, be rescinded, and that the old license be restored. City At torney Grant told the members of the committee that thla would no t be legal, however, and that In aplte of this action Parker could be arrested at any time, should he sell liquor un der It. The committee will recommend to the Council thsf the ordinance limiting the number of saloons In the city be so amended as to give Parker a license. Councilman Clyde said he thought Parker bad been dealt with unjustly, that licensee of other saloonkeepers having stairways ought also to be re voked. Parker- said that Al Wohlers put In the stairway while Parker waa In the East getting married.

ASSESSMENTS TO BE TOLD Extra Clerk Recommended That Owners May Be Notified In Time. Frequent complaint by property owners that they have failed to receive notices of Improvement of the streets surrounding their property until the assessment was made and that they have thereby been prevented from pro testing againat the coat of Improve ments, led to the introduction before tne ways and means committee of the City Council yesterday of an ordinance providing that hereafter City Auditor Barbur mall each property owner af fected a notice of the proposed im provement. A drawn the ordinance provide that a postcard be aent by the Au ditor, but Mr. Barbur explained that the clty'a con t yet with the Dally Ab stract provides that a copy of the pa per containing the improvement notice be sent to every property owner af fected by It and that the City Auditor furnish the namea and addresses.

PORTLAND'S DONATION BIG Rivers anil Harbors Congress Thanks City for Its Support.

The skin then is too large for the flesh underneath: doesn't fit tightly and snugly as It used to It wrinkles or sags. "It must be plain that to tighten the akin, make It fit the face perfectly In every place, will effectually remove the hateful wrinkles and bagglness. This is lastly and harmlessly accom plished by dissolving an ounce of pow dered saxollte In a half pint of witch hazel and using the solution as a face lotion.
