of the Commissioners of the various
states her on physical valuation of
railroads.
I would rather try sonic of these
rases before the railroad presidents
themselves than before some of our
Federal Courts." was Commissioner
Henshaw's statement. He added that
he did not wlah to Impute dishonesty
or prejudice to the Fcdersl Judges, but
that, as a rule, they .were so ill-informed
on engineering problems as t
be unable to pass adequately on the
leases taken before them. He added
that this naturally led the roads to
taka all tha cases possible Into court.
A permanent organisation of the rail
road commissions of all the states pos
sessing these bodies probably will be
formed today.

Early Adjustment Is
Expected.
SALEM. Or.. Aug. 30. (Special.)
With the fact becoming apparent that
all but two or three of the property-
holders who have been holding back
from offering their land for part of the
right of way to the Oregon Electric
have reached an amicable adjustment
with the railroad, it Is now safe to as
sert that within two1 weeks at the lat
est large gangs of men will be placed
at work south of Salem between here
and Albany and construction work on
the extension will be pushed with the
greatest possible vigor.
Within the next two days formalities
on large pieces of right of way will ba
completed. In several instances the
whole difficulties have been patched
and all that Is required now la the
formality of a deed.
There are still one or two citizens of
Salem who are holding out, but It li
believed that an adjustment will be
reached with them In a short time. If
not, court proceedings will be rushejl
through at the earliest possible mo
ment to reach a legal adjustment.
At any rate It Is sure that construc
tion work will be started south of
Salem In the reasonably near future
and when It la started one of tha
quickest pieces of road-building- ever
witnessed In Oregon will be started.
SALEM COUNCIL NOT BLAMED
President Gray, of. Oregon Electric,
Holds IiSndouers Responsible.
Carl R. Gray, president of the Hill

that his company had experienced any
difficulty with the City Council of
Silem in the extension of the Oregon
Electric southward to Albany, or In tha
extension of that road within the city.
slrtce his arrival In this territory.
Mr. feray said that he was not In a
position to Fay anything regarding the
dealings of the railroad with the City
Council of Salem or with Salem resi
dents prior to hta coming here to
take charge of the road, as he Is not
conversant with tha circumstances.
"Since my coming to Oregon, how
ever," he said. "I have found that the
City Council has been reasonable In Its
dealings, with me, and. In fact. It has
given me everything I have had a right
to have.
Mr. Gray said that the only diffi
culty the Oregon Electric was at pres
ent experiencing in Salem was with
certain individual' property-owners in
South Salem, with whom the company
has not been able to come to satisfac
tory agrements about rights of way.
I do not attempt to say that these
property-owners are unreasonable," he
Id. "for an Impartial observer might
regard us aa unreasonable aa they, but
nevertheless our differences are so far
apart that nothing will be done toward
extending the road southward until
they are more nearly harmonized.
In an article published Tueeday
morning regarding certain difficulties
encountered by the Oregon Electric In
obtaining rights of way In South
Salem, reference was made to 'an ex
acting City Council.' and to the fact
that obstructionists tactics on the part
or the city council had resulted In In-
adequate depot faculties being pro-
viaea.
"That part of the article was not

ence whatever was made by me to the

SALEM. Or.. Aug. 29. (To the Edl-
tor.) In The Oregonian, August 2S. these
is an interview purporting to have been
given by Mr. Gray, president of the
Oregon Electric Railway Company, to
the effect that certain property-owners
in Salem, myself Included, were ob
structlng the company In the building
of lta proposed railway out south of
this city.
1 wlnh to say that In my Judgment I
have offered the company's officers
every poaslblo opportunity to settle. I
have gone so far as to suggest that the
value of the property by arbitrated by
the company's attorney. Judge Carey,
and my own attorney. I have also of
fered to submit this samo subject of
valuo to a board of arbitration com
posed of men residing outside of tha
City of Salem and Marlon County, but
up to date none of these officers has
been accepted by the company. I have
also offered to accept the samo amount

neighbors, but this has been refused.
Moreover, the company proposes to
take a right of way from me varying
from "0 to 90 feet In width, whereas
the right of way through other- prop-
sought for a rlfrht of way la upland
44 feet. The public, the company's of

access to the remainder of my farm

of my present road from 10 per cent to I

Imposslblo to use It- I
In many respects tha location of tha I
right of way where surveyed through I

damage, but, notwithstanding this, I I
have been willing to give a deed to the I

price received Dy my neighbors for I authorities, is Deiore tne ar upn

the samo amount the. company haa paid

willing to arbitrate. I am also willing
to have the casa settled In court, but
naturally prefer a settlement outside

HARVARD NAME REVERED
Students Induce Descendant of

BOSTON, Aug. 30. For the first time
in the 275 years' history of Harvard
University, the name of Harvard will
appear on the student rolls the com

of London, a descendant of the family
of John Harvard, founder of the Uni

and under unusual and sentimental cir

Lionel Harvard Is directly descended
from a cousin of John Harvard, who
died In 1638. He prepared for Eman
uel College, but financial reasons pre
vented his entering.
The discovery of the young man is
traced In a letter written in 1847 by
Edward Everett, then president of Har

Minister to Great Britain. It referred
to members of the Harvard family, and
the letter was recently discovered
among old letters belonging to Ban

The Steinvay Piano
THE ONLY PIANO KNOWN IN
EVERY CITY, TOWN AND
HAMLET ON THE L
GLOBE.
So world-renowned and universally
revered has the Steinway become that
it stands easily at the head of any
list of pianos that can be named, and
confers the distinction of leadership
upon its representatives everywhere.
This has led many dealers who are
not Steinway agents to advertise second-hand
Steinways for sale, so that
they may use the splendor of the
Steinway name to give a borrowed
luster to the inferior instruments they
are compelled to offer. This is one of
the tributes that inferiority is forced
.to pay to superiority. Of course,
those' who are thinking of buying a
Steinway will prefer to deal with
regular accredited Steinway repre
sentatives, where they may obtain new
instruments and at the same price for
which they are sold in New York,

Curing Catarrh
Accept Our Advice and Try
This Remedy at Our Risk
. Catarrh Is a disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane is,
one may say, the interior lining of the
body. Catarrh therefore may exist in
any part of the system. ,
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, inflammation
and congestion are produced and na
ture fails to throw off the accumulated
poisons. The organ which has been
afflicted ceases to perform Its proper
function as nature intended it should.
The result Is. complication upon com
plication, which may lead to other even
more serious afflictions.
We honestly believe . Rexall SIucu
Tone will do wonders toward overcom
ing catarrh. It is made from the pre
scription of an eminent physician who
made a long study of catarrh, and his
great success with, his remedy was an
enviable one.
We want you if you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give Rex
