EW RATES DRAW 'BCSIVESS Royal Mail Schedule Covers Sailings ' for Full Year. lnqulrjr for space on June and July steamers is developing and while there has been no rush to list cargo, it is believed that the concerted action of lines operating across the Pacific In lowering rates on wheat and flour to $3 for Japan. $4 to Hongkong and Shanghai and $5 to Manila will have the effect of attracting increased busi ness. In the first official schedule of the Royal Mall fleet, which is to dispatch the leader of its vessels tomorrow when the Harpagus sails, it Is provided! that the steamer Flintshire will be here May 30 and sail June 4; the Falls of Orchy will report June 24 and depart June 30; Vestalia arrives September 2 and leaves September 6; Den of Ruth von comes October 9 and returns October 16; Olenlogan is due Novem- k.. t an.H .oil Vntfmhr 13: Den of' Crombie Is looked for December 4 and goes December 11; Den of Clamis is looked for January 2 and puts to sea January 10 and a vessel not named Is listed for January 29 and sails Febru ary S.

The Port of Astoria Commission at its meeting today decided to assist In the work of deepening the channel across the Columbia River bar by operating a large disc barrow which is to be dragged behind a tug through the south channel to loosen up the sand so that it may be swept out to sea by the swlft-runnjng ebb tides during the June freshet. An appropriation of $2000 was mads for the project. This method of improving the chan nel Is not a new one here by any means. When the late Captain Flavel operated the tug boats at the mouth of the river, he often used a harrow most . successfully to deepen the channel. The Port Commission also Indorsed the petition of the river pilots asking the United States engineers to aban don the dredging of the "cut-off" hannel opposite the city front and to open the old natural channel below Tongue Point. . The Port attorney was directed to bring a friendly action be fore the courts to test the legality of the Port In order that there may be no question of disposing of the $800, 000 in bonds that are to be used for tons true ting a modern public dock.

Judge Kavanaugh's decision leaves the way open for a hearing before the nDti.nflri rnmmffisinn. which has been set for May 12 and will be at Salem. The question of a permanent, injuncuun is still before Judge Kavanaugh, how ever, but his action on the temporary ...ininin. orHor mav be taken as a criterion of what he will do If the case Is fought out on Its merits unless the O.-W. R. N. Company makes a strong additional showing. The real fight is to keep the North Bank people off the bridge altogether, the contention of the O.-W. R. &-N. Koin-. .hat thov want to use It merely to switch cars to and from the East Side and not in me capacjiy of a common and interstate carrier. This the S. P. & S. Company denies, as serting that the use of the bridge is wanted for all kinds of Interstate traf flce.

'- .... 1 -ii-l sfininMi i ' If there is anything this Twentieth Century has done for ua besides teaching ns to stay up long enough at night to spend what we earned during the day, it is in the matter of efficiency. And this efficiency has come about in everything from raising a baby to renting a house. Formerly, when moving time came around, a woman would come home at night with her feet so swollen that her shoe laces were tighter than her cdrsct laces, and she would look at her husband with the agony of despair and say: . ... "John, I've walked up and down every street in this city. I've looked for the signs in every window. I've been in every house that they'd let me in. I didn't stop till my legs gave out. I can't decide. I just can't decide. So, John, dear, you come with me tomorrow and we'll go all over it again." And John said well, John wasn't a gentleman, if the truth were known. And now what a difference today. John says, "Well dear, shall we move?" And "Dear" says, "I don't know; let's see what's vacant." So thev turn over the pages of The Oregouian to the columns that say '"'For Rent." Then they take a lead pencil and "Dear" checks the locations that appeal to them as suitable neighborhoods. Then, sometimes they take the telephone and get whatever other information they want, or "Dear" drops around in the morning and looks over the places they have checked. That evening when John comes home she says, "I've found three dandy places;1 let's go around after dinner and look at them." So they do; and it's done. Now, try it yourself. And mention The Oregonian, please, when you find what yon want.
