Of Importance second only to the ar
rival of tha train yesterday afternoon
TU tha departure from Tillamook yes
terday morning of tha flrat regular
train destined for Portland. It carried
fully persons, some of whom never
had been outside their home county.
2Jaay tmoni them never had traveled
on rail before, their prevloua tripe to
Portland bavin been made by water.
Raaa'a B.lldcr F.lale.
With the successful Inauguration of

trip E. E. I-ytle. builder and general
manager of the road, waa greatly grat

ability of the contractora to complete
work on the Bl- Wolf Creek bridge
until within a few houra before tha

caused postponement unul yeeterday.
Even then tha workmen wera buay
a ahort distance beyond Wolf Creek
rauaed a brief delay. Both tralna
passed over thle portion of track safe
ly, however.
Slpevial Trie la View.
It l not likely that a epeclal train
will be operated from Portland to
Tillamook by the Commercial rlub be
fore tna first of tha year. Probably
' tha trip will not ba made until early
next fibrins'. The roa-lbed la now In
good condition but tha approaching
hotldavs will comral many business
men. who are eager to go on the-trip,
to remain at home. Tillamook real
dents, too. are planning; to come to
Portland In an excursion party. They
are likely to visit this city In advance
of tha Commercial Club's run to Tilla
mook. Mr. Lytle and other offlclala of tha
company will take a trip over the road
within tha next few weeks to Inspect
the property. Five weeks ago Portland
officials accompanied Mr. Lytle on a
private train from Portland to Tilla
mook, the road then not being ready
for service. Soma of tha rails wera
laid for the special accommodation of
that train. The possibilities of future
freight and passenger business ara evi
dent on all parts of the line.
Travel In both directions promisee
to be heavy for the next two or three
weeks. The normal travel, it la pre
dicted, will b etcady.
SALMON INDUSTRY TABBED
Gam Commiaa Ion's Data Show It
Exceeds Wheat Trade.
Marshal J. Kinney, of the State Flah
and Game Commission and a pioneer
canneryman of the Columbia Riven, haa
Interested the Commission In collecting
data with reference to the salmon In
dustry of this state and of the Pacific
Coast aa compared with other lndua
trie. Tha aalmon Industry during the
present year was worth to Oreson
about $7,000,000. and of this J3.000.000
came from the Columbia lilver. 11.000.-
00 from the Coaxt streams and the
balance from Alaska canneries owned
and operated from this s:ate and the
product of which la distributed from
bere." aa'd Mr. Kinney. "This is of
greater value to the state than Its en-
tire w-ieat crop. The sclmon Indus
try of the Pacific Coast Oregon.
'Washington and Alaska la of greater
value In money than the combined
wheat cropa of Oregon. Washington
and Idaho.
Three-fourtha of the lumber man
ufactured In Oregon. Washington and
California la consumed in those states
and the other fourth is shipped Kaat
or aent by water foreign. Tha value
of the ahlpmrnts of salmon out of
these atatea la far In excess of that of
the lumber exported. Many look on
tha salmon Industry as one of minor
Importance, while the facta show that
It la almost of the greatest Importance

Smith la Day's Surprise.
Vany attended the Woman's Club
xneetVg yesterday to hear the address
on ""Our State Institutions. by Gov
ernor West. Following the Governora
address came, aa a aurprtse to many
of the club members, an address by
Glpay Smith, who made bere bis first
appearance before a Portland auelence.
tbpeevkin- with approval of Oregon's
work In prison reform. Gipsy Smith
told 'of the practical philanthropic
work done by a church In Manchester.
England, where "the warm heart and
loving hand" takea the place of patron
age In "dolus; good" to the tramp and
the criminal. Thle church has for SO
years managed a "men'a home." where
a man can pay In labor for a bath,
clean bed and two good meals, and thus
regain a fragment of aelf respect- From
100 to 400 men are sheltered here every
night. The church also sustains a
maternity borne of 20 beds, where In II
years 1000 babies have been "mothered"
and their mothers helped: an "Open
Door" with 70 beds for women who
need a helping hand. 'and a preventive
borne for young girls who ara taken
from dangerous surroundings and
trained for future usefulness.
The speaker asked for more practical
evangelisation In churches and asked

GOBBLERS ARE PUZZLE
MERCHANTS ARE T7XCERTAIX
A I! OCT TURKEY 31ARKET.
Big Demand Assured bat Supply Is
Dubious and Dealers Are Chary
About Predicting- Prices.
Portland poultry dealers, both whole
salers and retailers, have not been able
to make up their minds yet as to the
probable course of the Thanksgiving
turkey market. They have no doubts
aa to the sixe of the demand, but they
are still In the dark as to tha supply.
The demand Is sure to be heavy and
It la safe to say more turkeys will be
consumed In Portland this year than
ever before. Portland has always been
the best turkey market In the Pacific
Northwest, because It has been the
most prosperoua city.
Aa for the available supply, thla will
not be known for a week at least. The
dealers hare been trying to get some
Information on thla acore from the
Valley turkey sections, but the only
reports that have come out are of a
short crop. They have beard thla so
often, however, that they do not place
entire faith In the growers' advance
information. Without definite word to
the contrary. the dealera are disposed
to estimate the turkey crop larger
than last year. The season has been a
most favorable one for the growing
of turkeys, and besides this Industry
haa been steadily growing for the last
few years, since turkey raising became
such a profitable buslnesa.
The reports that have come from
Idaho all Indicate a large supply, but
It la uncertain yet In what markets
the Idaho turkeys will be disposed of.
No announcement has been made yet
of any Eastern turkeys having been
bought for this market, but It Is prob
able that several cars will be brought
along. The Eastern turkey markets
ara high, however, and there will not
be much object In aelllng auch stock
hare unless the home supply proves to
be very light.
The Impression prevails that prices
will be about the same as last year,
but none of the dealers Is willing to
go on record and predict a definite
price.
GOBBLERS SOAR TO SKIES
Prices for Thankatrlrlns; Bird mt
Rnaebarg Show Increase.
ROPEBT'RG, Or Nov. 10. (Special.)
With lesa than half a crop of tur
keys In the vicinity of Oakland, usual
ly the heaviest poultry producing seo
tlon of the state. Koseburg dealers pre
dict that prlcea of Thanksgiving birds
will show a material Increaae over
last year.
Roseburg merchants, who generally
contract for furnishing the more Im
portant Coast markets with choice
birds, expect to pay from IS to 22
cents a pound wholesale, or a trifle
more than waa paid last year. In Oak
land 'the dealers are already offering
from 21 to So cents a pound for choice
birds and are of the opinion that the
price will abow an lntrrease during the
few days preceding Thanksgiving.
While Douglas County poultry deal
ers are of the opinion that this year's
demand will be normal, few contracts
have thus far been executed.
TURKEYS ARE SCARCE IX JLIXX
Supply Only Half That of Last
Year.
ALBA.VT, Or, Nov. 10. (Special.)
Turkeys are reported very scarce In
this part of the state. Loral dealers
report that the supply this year is
only about half that of an average
year.
Linn County does not produce a
great many turkeys, exporting only
about 1000 annually, and It la esti
mated that not more than 500 will go
to outside markets from here this
year. Local dealers estimate that the
price paid growers here will be about
22 cents.
LEWIS RIVER IS RISING

WOOPLAND. Wash., Nov. 10 (Spe
cial.) The rain that began a week ago,
while not very heavy in the valley, has
been severe In the Upper Lewis River
country and still continues. Indications
are that tr.ere will be high water with

rise of about seven feet In the river at
this point and It Is rising still.

RIVER PLAN FOUGHT
Taking Over tf Pilotage by
Port Deemed Unwise. .
SALARY ACCOUNT GREAT
Captain F.mken Says Commission
Would Bo Responsible for Acci
dents Peas) Is Against
Lowering of Rates.
The suggestion of the Chamber of
Commerce that river pilotage tariffs be
either decreased or the service taken
over by the Port of Portland Commis
sion, as discussed briefly at Thursday's
j session of the Commission, Is given llt
I tie support on the waterfront. Mem
bers of the Columbia River Pilots' As
sociation are antagonistic to the move,
and say If the plan Is tried It will be
found more expensive to the Port of
Portland Commission than the aalarles
Indicate.
"When a pilot handles a vessel be
tween Portland and Astoria he is vir
tually an employe of the ship or own
ers." said Captain Harry Emken yester
day. "If the vessel grounds or Is dam
aged otherwise en route, that Is adjust
ed by the underwriters and does not
fall on the pilot. Should the Port of
Portland take over the pilotage It
would mean that the owners will hold
the Commission responsible for Injuries
sustained b-y their ships, as the pilots
would be In the service of the munici
pal body. The result would be that,
even though a ship merely grounds,
most masters would Insist that she be
drydoeked and surveyed, and In many
cases that might require most of her
cargo to be discharged and the Port
would be held for demurrage and de
tention. salaries Total fSsVMO.
Captain Archie Pease, a member of
the Commission as well aa of the Pilots'
Association, says 18 pilots are employed
today handling marine commerce be
tween Portland and Astoria 12 In the
association, two acting Independently
for the Olson Mahony Interests, two
others on oil steamers and two more on
towboats. It Is estimated that if the
Port assumed the work the salary of
each pilot would be 1200 a month, an
annual expense of 3 6.000.
"We feel that the pilotage rates on
the river are low enough," said Captain
Pease. "They are IS a foot draft and 2
cents a ton net register, and for shift
ing from one berth to another $7.60 Is
charged. Of course the bar pilotage Is
12.60 a foot draft and 1 cent a ton net
reglsterr-but until last season It waa i
und 2 cents a ton.
Baataeaa oa laereaeo.
In the days when the pilots con
trolled the business at the mouth, be
fore the Port took It over, the men
maintained a pilot achooner and were
shouldering other expense. In our busi
ness It Is necessary to travel to and
from Astoria by rail, and we have an
office to keop up. Free pilotage Is not
given at other Coast ports, and I have
found from the records that our ton
nage la Increasing every season over
that of Puget Sound, In spite of the as
sertion that our port charges are
higher."
ASTORIA BORERS PROPOSED
ITerr Port Commission Is Assured
Help for Project.
In an effort to decrease the cost of
coal for tramp steamers, which will do
away with at leaet one Item Included
In alleged excessive port expenses here,
as compared with other harbors, and
at the same time draw a greater amount
of tonnage to the Columbia River, the
Port of Astoria, recently organized, is
to Investigate a plan of establishing
bunkers there, that all steamers may
get bunker supplies.
Realizing the importance of the step.
President Means, of the Port of Port
land Commission, has proposed that If
Astoria will build the bunkers and fur
nish the coal the Port of Portland will
do all In Its power to furnish tugs
in the slack Summer period to tow
coal barges from Comox or other mine
points In the North. With the expense
of transportation lowered. It is be
lieved that fuel can be furnished aa
cheap as on Puget Sound. When tramp
steamers loading here for offshore har
bors are short of fuel they customarily
take on only enough to carry them to
Comox, Nanoimo or Puget Sound, and
there replonish the bunkers. With a
station at Astoria, they could load to
a greater draft here, and In coaling
there save the extra trip up the Coast-
PLANT DAMAGED OFF . RIVER
Steamer Make Slowest Run of Sea
son From Golden Gate.
While masters of vessels arriving In
the last two days do not report having
sustained damage In the blow off the
Coast, the steamer M. F. Plant, of the
Alaska Steamship Company, arriving
at Seattle Thursday, lost part of her
port railing, which was carried away,
and the wlndowa in the pantry and
steward department were broken when
the vessel was off the Columbia River.
Captain John Griffith aaid that the
Plant ran Into a westerly gale and. that
the wind reached a velocity of about
e.0 miles an hour.
She shipped heavy seaa, that broke
on deck, drenched the office of the
purser and flowed Into staterooms. She
waa hours making Seattle from San
Francisco, and has credit for making
the longest steamer passage of the sea
son. Captain Canty, of the oil tank
steamer Catania, which arrived Thurs
day night and left for the Golden Gate
late last night, said that the weather
outside was tempestuous, but that his
greatest discomfort was on the way
up the Columbia, when a snow storm
was encountered, and at times became
so thick that It waa doubted if the ves
sel could proceed.
TUG DAC3TTLES8 IS LIBELED
Ssn Francisco Company Sued for
$71,149.00 for Loss of Raft.
ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 10. (Special.)
A suit was filed lu the Circuit Court
today by the Hammond Lumber Com
pany against the Ship Owners' and
Merchants' Tugboat Company, of San
Francisco.' to recover 171.249.90, for the
loss of the piling raft that went to
pieces on Peacock Spit laat September,
and a libel waa placed on the defend
ants' tug Dauntless, which was pre
paring to sail from here today with
the barge Amy Turner In tow.
The complaint alleges that on Au
gust 20 the plaintiff made a contract
with the defendant, whereby the latter
Was to tow a piling raft to San Fran
cisco for a consideration of $2'50, on
September . says the complaint, the
plaintiff delivered f the defendant a
rafting containing 5S2.49S lineal feet
of piling and spars valued at 259.249.90
and also containing chain, shackles,
turn buckles and other appliances
worth 212.000. making the total value
of the raft 271.249.90.
Continuing, the complaint asserts
that to tow the raft the defendant used
the tugs Dauntless and Hercules, and
these vessels started to sea with the
tow on that date, but the defendant so
negligently and carelessly handled the
raft that it was lost. The weather and
other conditions at the time were fa
vorable, but aa is usual at that stage
of the tide, the current at the mouth
of the river set to the north. This
fact, the defendant's agents knew, but
Instead of keeping to the south slda
of the channel they took the north side
with the result that the raft stranded
on Peacock Spit- The complaint also
alleges that the officers and crew of
the tug Dauntless, without, any cause,
let go the tow line and purposely
abandoned the raft and by reason of
that the raft drifted onto the Spit.
Even after the tow line had been re
leased and the raft turned loose, says
the complaint, there was ample time
for the tugs to have picked it up again,
but they negligently refused to do so.
Today Sheriff Burns took charge of
the tug Dauntless and placed Deputy
George Splcer on board her. Captain

BLETHEN IS HERE
Potlatch Executive to Confer
With Festival Managers.
CO-OPERATION IS SOUGHT
Seattle Man Also Wants to Get
Pointers on How to Run Show
In Successful Way Port
land's Fete Is.
Manifesting a get-ogether disposi
tion for the success of both, enterprises,
Joseph Blethen, president of the Seattle
Golden Potlatch, Is In Portland today
for a conference with Ralph W. Hoy,
president, and the other officers of the
Portland Rose Festival Association.
The desire for co-operation Is mutual
on the part of the managements of the
Potlatch and the Rose Festival and to
day'a conference Is expected to have
results.
Having raised more money, the peo
ple of Seattle are planning to make
their Potlatch next year a much bigger
event than the original effort, last
Summer. Mr. Blethen comes to this
city to study, among other things, fi
nances, parades, decorating and the
programme of spectacular features
which made the last Rose Festival In
this city the big success it proved.
This investigation was suggested to
Mr. Blethen by the fact that the man
agement of the Rose Festival Associa
tion was able to give the week's enter
tainment with a fund of only 242,000,
while the Seattle people expended about
164.000 for their Potlatch.
Most important of the subjects to be
considered at today's conference Is
that of determining upon some plan of
operation by which the two cltlea by
their united efforts can promote the
success of both shows.
"Our plan Is to make the Summer of
1912 a season of continuous gayety
for both Portland and Seattle In the
entertainment of the thousands of
tourists who will next year visit the
Pacific Northwest." said Mr. Hoyt yes
terday. "An Interchange of ideas will
doubtless prove instructive and helpful
to both cities. With the Rose Festival,
the Elka convention and the Seattle
Potlatch coming as they do during the
mid-Summer, there Is no question but
that there will be an abundance of en
tertainment for all.
"We are more than delighted with the
