NEW SURVEY CONSIDERED
lowering of Water Pipe Reported
Ordered by Major Mclndoe, So
That Work of Making 3 0-'oot
Channel May Go Ahead.
On and possibly two dredges, es
pecially constructed for operation at
the mouth of the Columbia River, will
be asked of the Federal Government by
the Port of Astoria and the Port of
Portland commissions, the assumption
being that the dredge Chinook can be
improved upon.
The Port of Portland took action
yesterday to co-operate with the Port
of Astoria In bringing the matter to
the attention of the War Department
and the Oregon delegation at "W ashing,
ton.
The Port of Astoria Commission in
augurated the move and asked that
the Port of Portland Commission lend
its aid. S. IE, Meats, president of the
Commission, said that he had talked the
situation over with others and they
agreed that when the north jetty is
finished at the mouth of the river the
channel will require maintenance and
that now was the time to seek author
ity to have at least one dredge built.
It is felt that the Chinook can clear
tl-.e channel succussfully and probably
provide greater depth.
Tub Pro milted (oi-)n.
At the instance of the Astoria bodj
a motion was made confirming a verbal
promise given last month that one of
the bar tugs would be plaoed at the
disposal of the Astorians to tow a
huge harrow, about to be completed,
which will work across the bar on the
same range to be selected for the
Chinook. With the two operating a ma
terial increase of water is looked for.
The subject of having a combined
survey of the bar made by a crew un
der Major Mclndoe and the Port of
Portland was considered, so they would
be in unison relative to the work to be
undertaken, and after the Chinook ends
her Summer dredging it is aimed to
make another survey to ascertain re
sults. Tile Port of Portland has not
been informed whether the operation
of the Chinook is to be paid for out of
its funds and those of the Port of As
toria, but it was reported at the meet
ing that Major Mclndoe had said the
Chinook would be started for the bar
soon.
Pipeline to Be I.o-iTered.
Concerning one of the Bull Run pipe
lines across the Willamette, above the
Hawthorne-avenue bridge, which has
been complained of by mariners dur
ing the low-water period, the Water
Board took no action at its meeting
Tuesday toward having a new ditch
dredged for lowering the pipe, but Ma
jor Mclndoe has announced that the
pipe must be dropped during the pres
ent, year, as there is a 30-foot chan
nel project authorized from the foot
of Ross Island to the sea. The Water
Board estimates that the service of a
dredge will be required 100 days for
the undertaking. The Port of Portland
will allow the Board for material re
moved that will be from the 30-foot
channel, but a charge is to be made
for that excavated on each side.
Considerable time was devoted to
reading and discussing a copy of the
official report of H. B. Pennell. chair
m,ln,of ,hs navigation committee of
the Chamber of Commerce, covering a
recent trip by members of that organi
sation to Astoria and the jettv to studv
the bar conditions.

More life has been injected into the
lumber charter market through the en-
" "" 01 me scuooner Irene, which
reached the river Wednesday from Los
Angeles, to load for Hobart at a rate
of 62S 6d. the option being given of
Hobart and another harbor in Tas
mania at 65 shillings. The schooner
Alvena, which is en route from Guay
luas, has been taken by Charles R Mc
cormick St. Co. to load here for Guav
mas. Chartering has not been active for
the past few weeks among small carri
ers and a tramp steamer Is reported to
liave been taken on time charter for
five years, to do general trading at
la Sd, said to be the lowest paid for
fteam tonnage in over a year. The
British steamer PtrathendVlck was
fixed by A. F. Thane & Co. at 7 shil
lings two months ago to load for Mel
bourne and it is said the same voyage
can be done now at Bs 6d.
RECORD TOY SHIPMENT HERE
Efcrly Preparations Made for Big
1913 Christmas Trade.
Six carloads of toy from Germany,
the largest single shipment yet to be
entered through the Custom-house,
were received yesterday. In the lot are
all the things that go to gladden the
hearts of youngsters at Christmas
dlls, wagons of all sorts, the numer
ous mechanical devices, old and new.
and a perfect wonderland of products
from the hands of painstaking German
1 oymakers.
The addition to toyland stocks net
1 nele Sam over $3000 in duty and. while
it is the record shipment, it does not
represent all that will be Imported for
the 1913 Christmas displays. There are
313 big cases and they came fmm rit-
many to Boston by steamer and were
imno-Bmppeo 10 t-ortland overland.
Probably much of that business will
move entlroly by water in th
when direct lines from ahrond a

The little child's doll is mother to the
most romantic fancy. And in the years

the joy of real moth- :

tranquil as best effort can provide.
This is accomplished with a wonderful
remedy known as Mother's Friend, an ex

There will be no pain, none of that nau- j

Mr. J. K. Thomas.
Mr. J. E. Thomas, of this city, who
resides at 1199 East Grant street, is
another well-known Portland man to
come forward and give others the ben
efit of his personal experience. Mr.
Thomas is a steam, hydraulic and elec
trical engineer, at present connected
with Olds, wortman & King's, one of
the largest department stores here,
having been employed by them for the
past five years. While talking with the
I
Plant Juice man recently Mr. Thomas
said :
"I have suffered with catarrh for
nearly twenty years and about a year
ago my condition became so bad that
lZSJ U fr flve weeks. My throat
and stomach were badly affected and
IS J'"' my hearins- has been
considerably impaired. There was a
most disagreeable roaring and cracking
my ears- Thls In Itself was
bad enough but I also suffered greatly
from diabetes; my kidneys seemed to
my back and I often had to get up dur
ing the night four or five times, which
broke my rest so that I felt unfit for
TmVI: k, V d.. BOod many different
things, but nothing seemed to do me
any good until I began taking Plant
Juice. I was told it was a great rem
edy for ailments like mine, so I bought
two bottles of it and the change that
has taken place in mr,
really remarkable. I am feeling like a
different man, my stomach is so much
better I can eat anything I want, the
catarrh is so much better every way
my hearing is better. I sleep well at
night and seldom have to get up at all."
People who suffer from catarrh of the
head often neglect treatment until the
stomach and bowels become affected.
As a constitutional treatment for ca
tarrh there is nothing better than
Plant Juice; it puts the whole system
into healthy condition and not only re
lieves the condition but removes the
cause as well. The Plant Juice man is
at The Owl Drug Store at Seventh and
Washington streets. Call and get a
bottle from him today and If it does
not help j-ou he will return your
money.
