BIG TRUSTS ARE BLAMED Speaker Declare That Commercial Interests of City Should Be Carefully Watched and Advantage Maintained. In an address before 100 business men following a dinner at tha Portland Commercial Club Monday night. J. N. TaL Munael for the transportation com mittee of th Chamber of Commerce, de clared that the effect of the recent decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission In th Spokan rate case would provs mor far reaching than any other decision rsndersd by the Commission. H said the findings of the Commis sion, which become effective November It. vitally affect Portland'a commercial Interests and restrict the distributing territory rightly belonging to Portland jobbers. Mr. Teal gave an exhaustive review of the work of th Interstate Com merce Commission and Its various de cisions as to rate regulations and with the aid of specially prepared maps showed the strategic position Portland occupies with Us natural advantagea as a commercial center. -The effect of th Spokane rat de cision." ald Mr. Teal, "will ba to en able the Spokane Jobbers to ship In Eastern goods cheaper and to tha same xtent hut out manufactured goods and other products of th Pacific Coast As a matter of business, aa a result of this decision, th railroads will dis criminate against Pacific Coast points and In favor of tha Interior. "This will be done by maintaining at Coast points rates as high as possible, so aa to discourage tha shipment from Coast points to th interior of good brought In by watr. Thl very prob able course on the part of the railroad! can best be combatted by shipper If thy will us water carriers In the movement of their shipments both In snd out to th fullest possible extent. This will eventuate in so adjusting rates from Pacific Coast points to the Interior, that Portland Jobbers in th not distant future will b able to ex tend their distributing territory to the Rocky Mountain States. Middle-West Ha Advantage. "Spokane. .however. Is only an Inci dent In a very large affray. Our real competitors ara the Jobber of Chica go and Missouri Rlvsr point. Thee Jobber today can place goods at Walla Walla. Wash., cheaper than can the Jobbers of lthr Portland or Spokane. For Instance, the Omaha Jobber can ship many classes of goods to Salt Uk City, dlstanca.of 1000 miles, for II cent, whll th Portland Jobber la charged the same rate on th same goods from this city to Baker. 151 miles. It costs tha Salem manufacturer tl cents to ship wool from Condon to Salem, a distance of about tQ miles, whll th charge for shipping wool from Condon to Boeton. 1000 miles. Is only 11 1. How In th world are the commercial Interests of Portland to thrive as they should under such a sys tem of rat making? -Ths manifestly unfair and dis criminatory ratea originate with the Standard OIL Sugar, Steel and other trusts and not with tba a-ailroad. Th thing for os to do Is to stand Ilk a rock for every natural advantage we have and fight vry dUcrlminntlon whenever and wherever It appears. All Portland ever claimed as a commercial center was th privilege of enjoying tb beneMa of th natural advant ages she possesses and of which she cannot b deprived by any organiza- tlon- . "In the first place, we must see to It that a Portland dollar goea Jut as far and buys Just as much transportation n t - Tl . v TV nt a a n iman m . - - . us water carrier to tb greatest pos sible extent.

Th Importance of the Panama Canal to th hlpplng Interests of the Pacific Coast and the relation it will bear to rate making was referred to by Mr. Teal, who advocated against charg ing tolla from vessels pssslng through that waterway. Ha predicted that not later than the next aesslon of Congress agitation would be Initiated by tho railroad Interests of th country for legislation that would lmpoa xcessiv tolls on all vessels passing through th canal. Mr. Teal also favored a merchant marina, adequate at least to carry all of tha product now raised In thi country. Concluding his remsrks. Mr. Teal spoks of th Importane of developing Central Oregon nd th Willamette Valler' increaalng thereby a rapidly growing volume of trade In a territory that Inseparbly belongs t Portland. He nrged the earnest co-operation of the business men of Portlsnd If the com mercial Interests of this city are to be conserved and advanced. H M. Heller, president of the Cham ber of Commerce, presided and Intro duced Mr. Teal. Just after the Spokane -rate dinner had been srvd at th Commercial Club last night what threatened to prove a serious firs was discovered by on of th employe In th club kitchen.

THE SUMMER WIDOWER Proposal They Should Wear White Ribbons, as Distinction Marks. There Is not much to be said for ths suggestion of a correspondent that "Summer widowers," In other words husbands left in the city whll their wives sre away at Summer resorts, should wear tittle bowe of white rib bon as semi-mourning to distinguish them from more fortunate mortals whose better halves are within beck and call. In the first place, the Sum mer widower thus decorated might be mistaken for an honorary member of the W. C. T. V.. which would prove embarrassing both to himself and the noble causa in cas he wer ever con vlvially inclined. In the second place, no such dis tinguishing emblem Is required for the homeless husband as he sadly slinks slong our city streets. Poor fellow! His countenance Is his badge of mel ancholy, his very gait proclaims his sad condition. Ever and anon he takes from his Inside pocket a well-worn memorandum and scans Us Items o'er. It contains auch reminders as: "Water the rubber plant. Be sure to put out the milk bottle. Wind the clock. Close window on leaving house. One tablespoonful of coffee to a cup, and bring It to a boll. Don't forget the laundryman comes Tuesday." He makes a mental note of the thlnga he has left undone that he ought to have done, dives Into a dairy lunch-room and drowns his sorrow In a flowing bowl of bread and milk. - t Our correspondent's suggestion, no doubt, was well meant. He Intended that the white badge of mourning should bring to the Summer, widower words of encouragement and sym pathetic glances. But he forgets that there are other means of lightening the burden. The modern city contains roof gardens and restaurants, hippo dromes, baseball parks and theaters, -, tm-winmhm With. their as sistance the husband without a home generally manages to pun tnrougn mm season somehow. Besides, he Is a ten der creature, a sensitive plant who thrives best when nobody takes notice of his sorrow. And fometlmes, of course, the sorrow Is not visible to the naked eye.

Snpprerlnt the Grandmother. Success Magazine: Happy In having the father under control, the next great step that should be taken by the promoters of the au tomatic baby la the formation of the "Society for th Suppression of Grand mothers." The grandmother Is th greatest enemy of the sterilised, un rocked, unkissed, uncuddled baby. The admantlne stubbornness of a grand mother is almost beyond belief. She will kiss the child! Regardless of germs, microbes. Infusoria and rules, she will take the. little cuddly thing In her arms, hug It up tight with cooing word and kiss It. Right on the mouth, too! The members of the society had to be exceedingly firm with th grandmoth er. "Mother," the member would say, "pleas do not kiss that child on the J mouth!" "Vary well! Very well!" th grand mother would say. Just a little huffed. "But I am sure, my desr, I kissed you on the mouth a million times when you war a baby, and you seem none th worse for it," "I prefer, mother, not to have my toaby kissed on the mouth!" "All right. 'Ittls baby!" th grand mother would aay. patting the baby on th cheek, "grandma can kiss tha pret ty 'Ittle footsies!" "Please, please, mother!" the member would say, appeallngly; "please do not kiss baby on the foot! Baby might put ber foot In her mouth afterwards!" - "Well." the grandmother would say, pulling her shawl over ber ahoaldera and arising with tears In her foolish old eyes. "I see this Is no place for a grandmother. Goodby, baby, I am not wanted here!" "Goodness! Goodness!" the member would exclaim as shs washed out the baby's mouth with an antiseptic after thegrandmother bad gone; "mother la o old-fashioned!" Perfume Starts Murder Cry.

HEROINE OF A PLAGUE Episode of Cholera Epidemic in Himalayas In 109. Christian Herald, It was during th cholera epidemic of 1909 that Miss Annje Budden, a girl missionary among the Himalayan foot hills, found to her dismay that the dread disease had Invaded her moun tain station. The instant It was dis covered, the European residents and ail the native officials fled In terror. They begged her to go, too, but her sense of duty would not let her. "The only way to save my people," she said, ."is to move them up to that higher mountain." It was 11 mile away. There were several scores to be moved, most of them women and children, but he managed to move them all, to provide canvas coverings for them, to estab lish proper sanitary conditions, and to minister to the sick; for the village doctor had run away and had "left bis Job" with her. Suddenly she" waa sent for to treat a very sick woman 10 miles away. The coolies had all fled, but she found an Indian pony and rode six hours alone through the torrid heat till she reached the woman'a home. It was too late. She was dead. There were no men to be found, but a few Christian women lived In the neighborhood, and they helped Miss Budden to carry the body to the outskirts of the village and dig a grave. At noon the brave young missionary read the burial serv ice there; then she started for her own camp. She had gone but eight mile when a snake frightened her hors and she was thrown off. He ran away and she walked the remaining 11 miles. At nightfall she was with her own people again, but only to find that one of her women had died during her absence. Immediately another burying aquad had to be organised, and with her own hands she helped to lay her poor friend in the grave. But this was the only death that occurred among her people, and she was able to conduct them all back to their homes when the danger had passed. A Biff Pie Graveyard. Christian Herald. This story Is told of a Pennsylvania preacher. The pastor, being an able and exceedingly popular young man, waa the recipient of numberless favors, among them pies ted cakes made by th women of hi corarregation, 'and especUlly by tMe younr ladles, who wer very proud of their ability to make ueh things. The pies, cakes, tarts, mufTins, etc., accumulated In the pantry, and the young pastor could scarcely do more than take a test of each and then tell how delicious the articles were. Deluged by these gifts, he turned in derperation to his house keeper. She and her husband, who was the sexton, suggested that he should dig a hole in the far end of the gar den and bury the stuff. The minister agreed to this novel idea, swearing the sexton to eternal secreoy. Each even ing they wrapped the picnic provender in heavy paper and burled it at the dead of night. This work had been going on for a long time until, the other day, some telephone men, who had been digging up an old pole, dis covered the pie graveyard.
