t the shlpmeat of mohair to i'ortl.md
from South Africa. The lot. whlrh
is I he llrs-t to be contracted for. Is due
at San Franrtaco today on the steamer
rown of Arraion and the mohair will
be transshipped to Portland on a ves
sel of the North Parlhc fleet.
Kalfuur. Guthrie A Company are the
constmire. but the niol.air Is intended
for a manufacturing establishment at
Sllwood. The reason anstcred for
lirlnatn:; the product, thousands of
miles by water, when there has been
mohair marketed in th Northwest
uuantlty. Is that the price here Is hiprh
and that It ran be bought In South
Africa, fre-lsht paid and landed here
under all expenses cheaper than the
home stock ran be obtained for.
If the shlpmnt ts found satisfactory
and that is said to be fully expected,
because representations nave been
made that it is of the lonp fiber grade,
TPKiilar Importations will be arranged,
unless the Government increases the
fluty. The shipment consists of 10 tons.
It Is to be clven a thorouKb test as
compared with mohair to be secured
hero and it is not doubted, but that if
It Is shown the plan Is one that can
be rarrlid out successfully, a stronger
effort will be made to Induce f'ontre!s

means of protecting that marketed In

IXVKRKIP MAKES GOOD SrEKD
Tramp Steamer Average Ten Knots
on Run to Puget Sound.
Captain Hand, of the British steamer
Inverklp. was congratulated at Tiro-
tna because his vessel averaged ten
Knots an hour on the run from the Co
lumbia to the Puget Sound harbor. The
time Is speedy for a vessel of the
lnverkip's class, she Is of 338$ tons
net register and was carrying 1.800.000
leet of lumber, loaded here.
The steamer Is to take on the same
amount of material at Tatoma and
will sail for Adelaide about Saturday.
Tne Inverklp will be followed by the
Prltiah steamer Strathbeg, which Is
1-ading at St. Johns and will go to
Taconia to finish. She ts due there
Thursdav. The Strathbeg began load
ing at F.ureka, and as both steamers sre
unler charter to the American Trading
Company. It la thought that others
recently taken will also be loaded at
two or more porta on the Coast, In
stead of giving certain vessels full
cargoes at one point.
the superstructure of the Broadway
bridge, to keep the space clear be
tween the west side pier and the draw
pier on that side, until the Jlarriman
brMge Is finished.
The masters point out that when the
Harrlman crossing is In use the Steel
bridge draw can be kept open at all
hours, until such time as it is torn
down, and that will permit them to
back from Alnsworth dock Into the
stream and then head through the
Broadway bridge draw with safety. If
the west span la placed, they say. it
will necessitate a towboat being used
each time they sail, to assist them In
getting away from the berth to head
through the draw. Captain Spier will
consult Major Mclndoe, Corps of En
gineers, IT. S. A., today with reference
to the complaints. Steel could mean
while be erected on the West Side ap
proach and on the East Fide from the
Oregon-street approach to the draw

Summing up the tonnage situation.
San hrancisco shipping men rite that
or fire foreign steam and satltna ves
sels listed for Honolulu, four have been
taken for outward cargoes: of seven
coming to Portland three are under
charter for other voyages and of nine
bound for Puget Sound and British Co
lumbia ports six have been flxed. To
San Francisco II foreign windjammers
are headed and three have been char
tered, of the nine not flxed. live will
not arrive for almost four months.
There are 41 carriers on the way to the
oast an. I il have been taken.
It Is held that there will be less ton
nage available for the coming grain
and lumber business unless there
snould be brought about a change In
other parts of the world to divert
tramp steamers this way. Higher
rates than nave prevailed during the
past sesaon may be expected.
XOLAX GETS A TANDEM TOW
Captain Holds, to Ship and Schooner
All Night, Bringing Them In Port
Captain Michael Nolan, skipper of
tho l'ort of Portland bar tug Waliula,
who recently Illustrated what good
service means when he brought
schooner Into the river at night, put
nother one over on the oppositlo
Sunday, according to Information give
Harry Campion, superintendent of th
pilotage and service yesterday, I
getting the Uerman ship Frieda an
schooner Resolute Into the river on
one tow.
It was Sunday afternoon that Nolan
cast his weather optic toward th
horixon and discerned the Frieda and
after getting her on his hawser spied
the Resolute. Not wishing to take
chances in losing business, as the tug
Oneonta was on the way down from
Portland and he was alone to tight the
opposition, he passed a line to the
Resolute. But he could not complete
the combination in time to cross In
Sunday. He held to the vessels all
night and came steaming In with them
yesterday.

lumber. one the British steamer
srrathnesa. by the American Trading
company, and the other, the British
t'mfr Strathtay, by Hind. Rolph Ac
o. Both are to Iotd In the North
west, aa the usual options of the Co
lumbia River or Puget Sound have
been taken. The Strathness Is to be
lispatrhed for Australian ports and the
Strathtay for Port IMrle direct.
There were two new arrivals in the
river yesterday, the C.ermsn ship
Frieda, from Santa Rosalia, which will
load lumber at Knappton for Cape
Town under engagement to the Ore
gon rlne Export Company. Her
charter had expired, but aa she was
fixed when low rates prevailed and
the market is decidedly stiff for the
same business now. she will be re
tained. The schooner Resolute also
arrived, coming from Pan Pedro. She
left the southern harbor March II and
will load for Giiaymas, her charterers
being the k K. ood uumber Company.
To begin loading wheat the French
bark Kugene Schneider Is to be towed
to Montgomery dork No. 2 today, from
LJnnton.
Cargo for the schooner Resolute,
which arrived yesterday from 8;
Pedro, will be loaded at the Patterson
mill. Rainier.
It Is said that the British ship Kirk
etidbrlghtahlre. which was towed to
Westport Sunday to work a lumber
cargo for the United Kingdom, is the
largest carrier that had berthed there.
Deliveries of rock for the south Jetty
at the mouth of the Columbia will start
today for the season of 1S12. A large
force of men has been employed and In
excess of 3000 tons of the material will
be dumped along the jetty trestle daily.
The Diamond O Interests are dredg
Ing on property occupied by the Pa
cific Lumber A Manufacturing Com
pany, nortii of the Oregon drydock. be-
ue the water is loo shallow to per

The last material required for the
Southern Taclflc fill on the East Side
probably will be landed today and the
Port of Portland dredge Columbia will
be shifted to the public drydock for her
annual overhauling, which will require
approximately 30 days. When that work
ends she will begin making a fill for
the Portland Gas Sc Coke Company,
south of the Government moorings.

months, covering the same route to 1
Ssn Diego as the steamers Geo. W.
KUier ami Roanoke.
Information has been given out at
San Pedro that the Yucatan is to be
ordered Into service soon, but at the
Portland office It is said that the ad
dition of another steamer depends on
t:ie cost of Installing an oil plant. It
is -admitted that there Is more busi
ness than the two steamers in opera
tion can accommodate and that more
freight could be obtained If assurances
was glren shippers that it would move

A brilliant and enthusiastic group
of 730 women Interested In equal suf

Portland Hotel yesterday, given In
honor of Mrs. Robert M. La Follette.
At the conclusion of the luncheon an
Informal reception was held In the
parlor, which was attended by 'many
who were unable to be present at the
luncheon. The dining-room was dec
orated appropriately for the occasion.
Mrs. Sarah A. Evans acted as toast-mistress.
Mrs. La Follette said in answer
to Mrs. Solomon Iflrsch, who said
that the distinguished guest was
equal to her husband. ' as he him
self, had often said, a "Women of
Oregon. I thank you for this kind
greeting. I do not speak of suffrage
from the point of legal or political in
vestlgation, nor for what suffrage will
do for the Nation, state or city, bu
for what it will do for the women.
UaJa la rotated Oat.
"Suffrage would add something to
our character and strength that we do
not possess. Next to religion and edu
cation comes politics In human inter
est. All questions of government af
feet women as much as men.
A woman who dusts her home
thoroughly might have less to do if the
street sweepers were In better condi
tion: and there would be less dlph
theria In our families.
"Suffrage has become fashionable
during the past year: therefore the
men. Instead of secluding themselves
when they wish to discourse on poli
tics, now consult women for their onln
Ions. When politics becomes a home
question and Is discussed In the family
gatherings, children will obtain . I
greater and more sympathetic know
edge.
"We are an organized body. No long
, as in the olden days, can we pro
Ide each article for our tables. We
must buy our water, our milk and other
essential things. We must work to
gethcr.
At the close of her address. Mrs Ta
Follette received a bouquet from Mrs.
Abigail Scott Duniway. who was unable
to be present on account of ill health:
another from Dr. Marie D. Kqui. on be-
air of the College Women's League.
nd a third from the Portland Hotel
Company.
Mrs. Diulway Honored.
"Our Cause" waa a toast nronosed
by Mrs. Sarah Ehrgott, who said that
formerly women a only cause was "be
cause." Mrs. Ehrgott also read an orig
inal poem dedicated to Mrs. La Fol
lette. Mrs. A. King Wilson said. In I
toast, that no assemblage of worthy
women in tne Northwest was complete
without the presence of Mrs. Abigail
Scott Duniway. To which Mrs. Eliza
beth Lord, of the The Dalles, who rep
resented Mrs. Duniway. responded: "I
can't say anything; my heart la too
full."
Dr. Esther C. Pohl said in her toast:
"The woman doesn't live .who could
toast the National Association In three
minutes. It would take three weeks,
women are blamed for not being able
to fighL but they have written battle
songs which have helped win battles."
Mrs. La Follette will speak at S
o'clock today in the Women of Wood
craft Hall at Tenth and Taylor streets.
BIG PAY ASKED FOR BRIDGE
Railroad Want 916,000 for Use of
Upper Deck of Structure.
County Judge ' Cleeton and Countv
Commissioner Lightner consulted with
Mayor Rushlight yesterday morning In
regard to the proposal of the O.-W. R.
X. Company to charge the county
lis. 000 a year for the use of the upper
deck of the new steel railroad bridge,
requiring the county also to paint the
Dridget to put down tha planking, keen
H In repair, and employ the bridge
tenders for the upper deck. The rail
way company proposes to charge the
streetcar company the same rata as
the county, $16,000 a year. The pur
pose of the visit of the County Court
to Mayor Rushlight yesterday morning
was to ask that the engineer of the
rounty be permitted to work with the
City Engineer in figuring what the
superstructure cost.
The rate which the railway company
proposes to charge is 2 per cent on
1800.000.
The streetcar company Is now pay
ing the county $100 a month for the
use of the Hawthorne bridge and $1000
a month for the Burnside bridge. The
county pays the railway company $360
montn lor tne use or the old Steel
Bridget. The streetcar company pays
the city at the rate of S cents a car for
the use of the Morrison bridge. This
amounted to $:i.08.04 in 1910, when
the old Madison bridge was out of
commission. $14,165.81 In 1911. and
$4384. 2 for the first four months of
this year.
The city meets tha Interest on th
bonds and pays the cost of construe

Interesting Information concerning
prospective immigration to the Pacific

Panama Canal was developed at the
California State V. M. C A. convention.
H. VT. Stone, general secretary of the
Portland Y. M. C A., returned yester
day from Pasadena, where the conven
tion was held.
Wide diversity of opinion was ex
pressed as to the volume of immigra
tion that will follow the opening of
the canal, according to Mr. Stone. A
surprise to the delegates wss the state
ment of Robert Newton Lynch, secre
tary of the California Development
Board, who does not believe that immi

"Mr. Lynch called attention to the
fact that both Germany and France
are now bidding for Immigrants from
Southern Europe. The South American
countries, too. are making overtures
for laborers from Europe.
"Other speakers at the convention
took the usual view that immigration
through the canal will be heavy. Dana

100,000 immigrants a year for the first
five years would come to California,
and correspondingly large numbers to
the other Coast states.
'Means of assimilating and helping
these Immigrants were discussed by
many speakers. One authority on this

the convention was Professor iiaward

MAKES
o A LASTING CURE
Not only its proven ability to cure, but its absolute safety as a remedy,
has made S. S. S. the most extensively used of all medicines in the treat
ment of Contagious Blood Poison. Unlike the strong mineral mixtures,
which temporarily remove the outward symptoms and shut the disease up
in the system, there to carry on its destructive work; on the delicate and
vital organs, S. 8. S. strikes directly at the root, and by purifying the blood
of every trace of the virus, completely and permanently cures the trouble.
8. 8. S. is Nature's blood purifier, harmless in its action and certain in its
good results. It is made from a combination of roots and herbs, each of
which has a definite and specific action in puriiying the blood. Years were
spent in selecting and proportioning the different ingredients, but when
B. S. S. was perfected It soon demonstrated its superiority over all other
blood medicines, and now, after 40 years, it is still the one and only certain
cure for Contagious Blood Poison. While driving out the poison from the
circulation 3. S. S. builds up and strengthens the system by its fine vegetable
tonio effects. If you are suffering with Contagious Blood Poison S. S. S. is
your most certain reliance, and because of its freedom from mercury,
potash or any other mineral, it Is absolutely safe for every one. Home

of the poisons in the blood; just aa impossible as it is for the grate of a stove to rid
itself of clinkers. The waste does to us exeotly what the clinkers do to the stove;
make the fires burn low until enough clinkers have accumulated and then prevent
its burning at all. Your liver is sluggish you are dull and heavy sleep does not
rest, nor is food appetizing. In this condition illness develops. Doctor Pierce's

for his wife, I was willing to take it.
Now I look the picture of health and feel
