Ideally Located for Holding
Great Show and Site for
Building Is Offered.
With blue ribbons, testifying previ
ous prowess, fluttering and every stall
occuDled bv a Drlze-winning bovine,
the first annual Pacific International
Dairy Show opened yesterday at the
fnion Stookvards at Kenton. Two
hundred and 39 head of the bon ton
dairy cattle of the Pacific .Northwest
are entered, representing jersey. Ayr
shire HoLstein. . Dutch belted and
Guernsey breeds.
As no admission is charged, an ac
curate record of attendance cannot be
kept, but it is estimated that 3000 peo
ple saw the blue-blooded stock yester
day. The East Side Business Men's
Club, 300 strong, came in the morning
and spent the day learning the fine
points of the science of dairying. From
the interest displayed yesterday, a
much larger attendance is expected
hereafter.
Bis; Annual Show Planned.
The exhibitors are agreed that Port
land, by reason of its central location
to the stock and dairying industry of
the Pacific Northwest, is the one place
to establish a permanent dairy ana rai
stock show. A fat stock show will be
held at the Union Stockyards in De
cember, according to present plans,
hut. it is proposed in future to unite
the two shows and make tnis tne
irreatest stock show for all classes in
the country. Inasmuch as Western
cattle have been taking the lion's share
of the honors at Eastern shows. West
ern stockmen argue that tne place to
hold the greatest show of all is in the
West, preferably at Portland.
"A building that will accommodate
1000 cattle should be built here," said
John 1 Smith, of Spokane, who
brought his famous Hazelwood nerd of
Holsteins direct to Portland from Chi
cago, where they took nearly all the
honors in their class at the National
Dairy Show. "Chicago people will tell
you that the greatest event of the year
is their stock show. An Investment of
$20,000 here would mean a permanent
institution for Portland, something
that will be of increasing benefit to
the city. If the people of Portland
realized what a great thing it would
be, they would lose no time in 'cinch
ing' It. As it is, Spokane, not nearly
so advantageous a point as to location,
but already having the necessary
buildings and grounds, is a strong bid
der for the show."
Site for Building Offered.
The Union Stockyards Company has
offered the use of a sufficient tract of
land adjoining Its plant for the erec
tion of an exhibit building, and the
fact that there is barely enough room
with present accommodations for the
stork entered at this first show is
making the offer' a leading topic
among exhibitors who are all in favor
of the plan which would make Port
land one of the greatest stock show
places in the country.
So numerous are the Jersey entries
that they have been given a separate
building, where their grooms were
busy all yesterday putting them in -the
pink of condition for the Judging,
which begins today. Next in number
are the Holsteins, with almost as
many Ayrshires.
Many States Represented.
The names of those making entries.

The dairy entries include both im
ported and domestic stock. One of the
most interesting of the Imported ani
mals is the Ayrshire bull, Peter Pan,
who had a persistent blue-ribbon habit
in Holland before he was brought to
America. He has been many time a
prize-winner since. With his huge
bulk and great upstanding horns he is,
to the lay observer, the most imposing

MILLER CASE DISPOSED OF
Druggist Accused of Selling Cocaine
Escapes With Fine.
After being before the courts for
nearly two years, in the course of
which three verdicts of conviction have
bn returned, the case of Solomon Mil
ler, South Portland druggist, accused
of carrying on an extensive traffic in
cocaine with young boys, was finally
disposed of in Municipal Court yester
day, when a fine of $50 was imposed
after a plea of guilty. The reason
given for not pressing the case to a
more drastic punishment is that the
most lmnortant i, witness. Joseph Curry,
one of Miller's victims, is in a hospital
at Sacramento and cannot appear to

Miller's case 'was the centerpiece of

Jury yesterday that Nelson Miller, the
aged man found dying last week in
his cabin on the Patton road, came to
Ms death at the hands of Elmer Young,
his neighbor, and a verdict to that ef
fect was returned. Young appeared
yesterday in Municipal Court and
waived examination on a charge of
first degree murder. lie was held to
the grand Jury without bond.
The crime with which Young is

drinking with Young during the day.
BRIDGE OPERATION TALKED
B. S. Josselyn and City Officials Dis
cuss County Control.
At a conference yesterday between
Mayor Rushlight, City Attorney Grant
and B. S. Josselyn of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power Company, ar
rangements were made for the sub
mission at the next session of the State
Legislature of a bill providing for the
taking over of the, operation and con
trol of the ferries and bridges of the
city by the county. The city's part
of the contract was carried out at the
recent special election at which a bill
was passed authorizing the transfer.
It is up to the Legislature to act be
fore the transfer can finally be made,
it is said, because of the fact that the

of the Juvenile Court went one night
to the place, accompanied by a con
firmed victim, and saw the boy buy a
packet of cocaine over the counter

Other boys were found who testified
that they bought the drug there regu
larly, and, despite an attempt to prove
an alibi. Miller was found guilty in
Court and sentenced to 90
days at the rockplle. He appealed to
the Circuit court, wnere me c
dragged for a long time, but was fin
ally brought to trial, and the convic
tion was sustained. Then on techni
cal points, a new trial was granted and
the case was dismissed.
Later it was found that Curry was

found in Sacramento.
Miller had a bad record or long

Positive Alleged Robber Is One
Who Beat Her In Home.
-"If he is not the man he must be

if she could Identify him as the rob
ber who, on the night of November 9,
after beating her into insensibility,
broke her finger in his eagerness to
secure possession of a diamond ring
which would not come off easily.
Miss Smith lapsed into semi-un
consciousness with a low cry yester
dav when her iraze rested for the first
time on the face of Brennan, who is
held on a charire of being the accom
plice of Tom O'Brien, sent to the penl
tentlarv for life, in the holdup of a
South Portland streetcar on the night
of October IB. Miss Smith was
brought to Portland yesterday by
Sheriff Maas. of Clackamas County,
who learned that Brennan's description
fitted that given by the girl of her
assailant. Her almost positive identi
fication of Brennan came after she nad
recovered control of her senses.
Miss Dorothy Raohet, at whose home
a stranger called for something to eat
on the same night Miss Bmitn was
felled by a robber, thought she could
identify Brennan as the man. but was
not positive..
Should the Portland authorities tan
to "get" Brennan on the holdup charge
Sheriff Maas wants him sent to Oregon
City to be held fer the assault on the
girl. He will endeavor to secure other
witnesses who may testify to having
seen Brennan in the vicinity of the
Smith home and with the assistance of
the city police is seeking to trace the
prisoner's movements about that time.
The assault on Miss Smith was ex
tremely brutal. The robber left her
insensible. It was more than an hour
before she recovered consciousness and
managed to get to the house of a
neighbor to report the affair. She
was struck on the head with a blunt
Instrument and her finger was broken.
She was seated at the piano when the
stranger knocked and was alone in the
house. She is a daughter of Peter
