CHINESE RECEIVE PRAISE
Morrrl C. Kahn Sa Nation 1 Due
to Profrr-sa ICapidly.
China la destined to become the most
prosperous country In tha world la the
liellef of Morrrl C. Kahn. who readied
the Imperial Hotel today after five
vrr lo the Klowrry Kingdom. Mr.
Kahn la connected with the Magistral
Chemical Company, a chemist by pro
fession, and has been conducting a se
ries of scientific experlmenta In China.
"My mission concerned the develop
ment of practical and non-harmful usea
of tha plant from which opium la
manufactured." declared Mr. Kahn.
and It may a well be said that the
experiments were a failure.
-But China will become the bl(reet
commercial country of the world within
the next 35 year, and In my opinion
will be a strong bidder for recognition
In all markets. The upper rlaases of
Chinese are a wonderful people, and It
needed only the rebellion against the
authority of the Manchus to K've them
a stimulus that will be felt around the
world. It la common knowledge that
the Chinese have been kept back
through belns; compelled to adopt a
form of religion and to follow customs
that have been handed down through
the centurlea. Kven now the people
are breaking away from these things
and exhibiting an Intense delight In the
exercise of the liberty which was
brought to them by Ir. Fun Yst Sen
and hla associates. The result Is going
to be a remarkable progress. The fi
nances of China will bo straightened
out through lnans.
-The ISO.noo.000 loan of which so
much has been published will be ob
tained without Russia or any other
government obtaining" any detrimental
concession.
The bankers of the world know the
Inherent honesty of the Chinaman, and
that will count In aecurlng the consid
eration the government lia asked for.
In all my experience In China I have
never bad a native tell me an untruth."
Mr. Kahn will go from Portland to
California, and then to hla home In New
Jersey, where he will consult with hla
former college professor. Woodrow
Wilson.

clare Speuker.
Appeals for votes for the equal suf
frage amendment were made by Hcv.
Albert Ehrgott and Dr. C. 11. Chapman
at a meeting held last night at Seventh
and Washington streets. Mr. Khrgott
declared that women should be given
the ballot for the reason that there are
many problems which they can help
to solve. He said that men's business
and political Interests have become so
Involved that they are afraid to deal
with those moral problems that have to
do with women and children. "Women
voters will give m the backbone we
need," said Mr. Ehrgott. "In cleaning
up these thlnga."
Answering a man In the crowd who
asked the question: "Does the aver
age woman want the ballot?- Dr. Chap
man replied with emphasis that she
doe. "The average "society woman."
he said, -does not want it for the same
reason that her husband doea not want
women to have. It, because their eco
nomic Interests are opposed."
The speaker pointed out that the wo
men of tho leisure rlasa are compara
tively few In comparison with the wo
men of other classes. "Seven million
women have been forced out of their
homes and compelled to work side by
side with their husbands In order to
provide food for their children." ho de
clared. -This united toil Is not enough
even, for children must be kept from
school and play to work for the food
they eat. Tho worat enemy we have
to flrht la Ignoranoe. We welcome the
Intelligent opposition. But against the

Bacon, of Butte, and Ilrector Stanley
tflfford and K W. Iiunham. of New

LOSS OF LICENSE IMPENDS
Saloon Case Under Advisement by
Judge Taznell.
First forfeiture of a saloon license
on conviction for two violations of
the. Sunday closing clause of the
"model" liquor ordinance la Impending,
provided Municipal Judge Taawell doe-idea
that the two offenses ' may be
committed concurrently. The Issue Is
under advisement In the case of Fer
rettl Bros., proprletora of a saloon at
Cnlon avenue and East Madison street.
They were convicted on one. charge
yesterday and another Is under conald
oratlon of tho court, to be decided to
day. Complaints were filed that the
Ferret is said liquor on Sunday, and
had their place of business open. .
Attorneys for the defense contended
that these, two were one transaction,
but the court held differently. It was
shown that the saloon connects with a
dancehall. and policemen testified that
there was a constant movement of
patrons of the dance toward the) saloon
last Sunday. When the police entered
they found a lot of wot beer glasses
on the bsr and saw the proprietor be
hind It, with his coat off. When In
terrupted he ran away, and was over
taken after a hot chase.
Though there have been many con
victions of violating tho liquor ordi
nance, there has been no forfeiture
under the clause, providing for the void
ing of a license upon conviction of
throe violations, or two In the case of
the Sunday closing clause. Tills Is due
to the recently discovered fact that tho
offenses do not attach to the llcen.se
after it has been transferred, and of
fenders who have been convicted once
or twice place the license in another
name.

Tracks Kuin Carpets.
VANCOUVER, Wash., May 14. (Spe
cial.) The wearing of white and light
dresses by women and girls of this city
Is being Interfered with seriously by
the exceedingly warm weather. Many
women have already given up wearing
their white dresses until conditions arc
more favorable.
I'avlng was done here last year and
on many of the street the sand, tar,
asphaltum. gravel and other ingredi
ents aro not mixed in proper propor
tion, apparently, because the hot sun
of the past few flays has caused the tar
to boll out and run over the surface.
Women, with their white dresses. In
iuakintf crossings, cannot keep their
skirts from becoming damaged by the
tar and oil. and numerous dresses have
been spoiled. And the curses of the
women have been called down on the
head of the -paving concern responsi
ble. And to add t. the troubles of the
Vancouver women, the streets are be
ing oiled Just now and the crosswalks
become more or less. oily. Brothers,
husbands, sweethearts, all, walk in the
oil and then Into the house. Some wo
men have taken up their rugs.
The paving1 companies are doing what
they can by covering the surface of the
soft streets with sand and fine gravel
and rolling It In.
POLICE WORK IS PRAISED
Two Citirens Express Appreciation
of Vigilance of Officers.
Frequently letters from Irate citi
zens and "taxpayers," In which offi
cers are Inveighed against for alleged
unof fleerlike acts, find their way to
the office of Chief Slover. but very sel
dom does a citisen take the trouble
to express hla appreciation for the
"cop" on the beat who has saved his
property or otherwise served his In
terests. In the light of this it is
highly gratifying to the men of the
second night relief yesterday to re
ceive two expressions of appreciation
for the work they are doing with re
gard to checking reckless automobile
driving and automobile thefts.
. Captain Keller received a letter from
R. w. Wilbur, who recently lost an au
tomobile that was found by the police.
"I desire to compliment your men on
account of having found my car In
such a prompt and efficient manner."
says the letter. "I think the public
generally does not appreciate the work
of the police force. I have had my car
stolen twice before, and In both in
stances the work of the police has been
very fine."
Dr. T. A. Jones, who was arrested
early In the morning for speeding, also
expressed his appreciation of the po
lice force's work when brought to the
station, instead of Indulging In the
usual bluster. Dr. Jones had been hur
rying home along the Linnton road, and
did not know he waa exceeding the
speed limit. He was willing to take
the officer word that he was. how
ever, and said that aa he was Interested
In lessening reckless driving, he was
willing to suffer' the penalty In his own
cose.
BRIGHT FUTURE FORESEEN
C. E. S. Wood I.aud Portland In
Address to Hotel Clerks.
At the meeting of the Grcetera" Club,
composed of hotel clerks, held In the
Bowera Hotel Monday night, CE.fi.
Wood predicted a great future for Port
land and Incidentally advanced a new
theory for conducting hotels.
"The hotel la experiencing an era of
progress." said Colonel Wood. 'In the
olden days there were Inns In the coun
try and taverns In the cities. The pro
prietor waa the host and bin patrons
were his guest. He never had many at
a time and could tlve thera his personal
attention. Now there are l$-story
structures with every modern device
and convenience, but they ore more like
machines.
"Today hotel progres seems to lean
toward entertainment far from being
refined. Next a guest will be met at
the station by a band, at the door by a
clerk with a gong, be will be serenaded
while he eats and lulled to sleep by
rag-time phonographs If this thing
keeps up.
"The tired traveler Just off a noisy,
rattling railway coach wants quietness
to rest his nerves. The foundation of
a hotel's reputation are its beds and
table. The noise demanded by the pub
lic Is a false demand.
-i congratulate you clerka for the
manner in which strangers are received.
Hee that you are well Informed concern
ing your city and the surrounding
country, then you will be of value to
your employers and your guests as
