14 'LOCKOUT' ISGRYOF CHEGKERS RELIEVED Rose City Crew and Office Force Do Work at Ainsworth Dock When Men Organize. 9 EMPLOYES ARE AFFECTED Tnion "Will Xot Be Recognized, Says Official of Steamship Company. Longshoremen May Take i Action.Asserts Secretary. Men from the crew of the steamer Rose City and others from the office force on Ainsworth dock checked freight there yesterday in place of the regular checking force and the latter, recently organized, characterizes the move as a "lockout." They have been paid 30 cents an hour when employed. After the formation of a union a scale of 50 cents an hour and 75 cents for overtime was adopted. G. la. Blair, general-manager of the Ban Francisco & Portland Steamship Company, said yesterday that the cor poration was not dealing with the mat ter of wages In this case, but that there could be no recognition accorded a checkers' union affiliated with the longshoremen. This union holds a charter in the International Longshore men's Association. Mr. Blair takes the stand that the checkers occupy a confidential posi tion in passing on cargo delivered from the dock to teamsters for consignees and in such capacity should be inde pendent of affiliations. Lonffrfnoremen to Meet Soon. Andy Madsen, secretary and treas urer of the Pacific District, Interna tional Longshoremen's Association, was called on to intercede by the checkers and said, after visiting Ainsworth dock, that he felt certain the situation would be amicably settled. "I was given to understand that the checkers were not discharged, yet there seems to be no other reason for them not to do the work," he said. "That it is a "lockout is the only construction I can place on the step. If it is simply because the men organized, then we will take action in the event they are not reinstated. There is a convention to be held May 18 of our association and should it be decided to take drastic action then, it might involve men at Astoria, San Francisco and San Pedro as well as in Portland." Checkers Not Employed Regularly. Not more than eight or nine men are affected on Ainsworth dock. Other checkers are employed by the American-Hawaiian line on Albers dock, from 10 to 12 men being often retained. Like those on Ainsworth they do not work steadily. The Rose City's inward cargo was I worked yesterday and last night and it was reported she Is to be fumigated today. Checkers will be employed in the delivery of freight to teams. The scale for checkers on some docks is 40 cents an hour and a few pay the men $2.50 a day when steadily em ployed. The Commission of Public Docks decided last week to pay 40 cents an hour on Municipal Dock No. L jyiTJECT OILVVVEL. FAVORED Tongue Point Crossing Work Hinges on Moving Clatsop. Consent of Lieutenant-Colonel Mc Kinstry, Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., has been given to cut a straight chan nel from Buoy No. 2 to Tongue Point, on what is known as the Tongue Point Crossing. The project was petitioned for last week by commercial and ship ping interests, and the Port of Port land Commission offered the use of the 30-inch suction dredge Columbia for a period of 30 days to assist. Colonel McKinstry has written pe titioners that the advantage in making the cut over the present tortuous chan nel is apparent and that he intends to open the channel when conditions make it safe to move the Government dredge Clatsop from the present road for a sufficient period. He says that if the Columbia will work 30 days on the channel so the Clatsop can be oper ated through the cut, he will undertake ..to complete it if the Clatsop can be spared from the old channel. The Co lumbia has about finished clearing the Sand Island channel to Fort Canby in the interest of the north jetty project 6TRATH3JEE GOES TO SEA Several Carriers in River Ivoading Foreign Iumber Shipments. Carrying 1,673,340 feet of lumber. valued at $20,174, that she loaded here for Melbourne, the British steamer fctrathdee left down from Inman-Poul sen's mill last evening for sea and was cleared for the Australian harbor by way of Seattle, where she is to finish. The vessel is under charter to Hind, Kolph & Co. Other offshore cargoes being loaded include two for Callao, the Peruvian bark Belfast and schooner Mathew Turner being the carriers, and the Ger amn bark Tarpenbek is also going to the west coast. The British steamer Frankmount is receiving lumber for Melbourne, the British steamer Man- ningtry for Sydney. German ship Oster bek for a nitrate port, and the Japa rtese steamer Shlnkal Maru for China, with a few others, are due early next month. ALJilAXCE to be laid tjp F. A. Kilburn May Bo Assigned to Coast Rtui for Short Period. It is reported from San Francisco that either the steamer F. A. Kilburn or the Geo. W. Elder will replace the Alliance on the Portland-Coos Bay Eureka run next month so the regu lar vessel may be overhauled. E. E. Fryer, traveling passenger agent of the North Pacific line, is credited with having given out the information. The alliance is in port and is to sail tomorrow night- The Elder has been out of service for the past few months, undergoing repairs and an overhaul ing at San Francisco. 'The Kilburn lost her rudder at sea, April 5, and was towed into the Golden Gate, so her place was taken temporarily by the Santa Clara. It Is believed the Kll burn will be selected rather than the Elder to relieve the Alliance, because she is smaller. TIME BALL CHANGE DENIED Bureau Chief Pleads Funds Too Scarce for Project. Lack of sufficient funds and that shipmasters can correct chronometers while In port at the branch hydro graphic office or through having wireless operators listen" for .the noon report sent out from Mare Island axe reasons given by the chief of . the Hydrographic Bureau for not acting favorably on a petition " of commercial bodies and mariners to have the time ball shifted from the roof of the Custom-House to the east pier of the O.-W. R. & N. bridge. Lieutenant R. R. Smith, U. S. N.. in charge of the Navy recruiting sta tion as well as of the hydrographic of fice, has been officially advised of the decision. Shipping men hold that in its present position the time ball is virtually useless to mariners and its maintenance simply a matter of rou tine at the hydrographic office. It is probable that the subject win be re vived at Waashington through appeal to the Oregon delegates to have a spe cial appropriation made for the under taking. LAST OF OLD CROP SHIPS Ossa and Erbrin to Clean Up 1913- 14 Cereal at Tidewater. Last of the windjammers to compose the 1913-14 grain fleet will be in the harbor this morning, the German ship Ossa, an arrival Monday from Callao. She left up from Astoria yesterday. With the Norwegian bark Erbrin, al ready in port, they will constitute the May grain fleet, as well as wind up the season so far as the transportation of cereal in sailing vessels is con cerned. In the way of tonnage for the 1914-15 crop there are 21 carriers listed on the en route board at the Merchants' Ex change of a total of 46,733 tons. On the way to Puget Sound are two ships and there are no square-riggers in the northern port awaiting grain cargoes. At the rate with which exporters have assembled vessels during the past few weeks mariners now abiding ashore say that sailing vessels are yet having their day, though It has been predict ed for the past few years that they would only last another season in han dling gTaln. LEWIS RIVER CHAXXEL GROWS Work on East Fork Toward La Center About Half Done. WOODLAND. Wash.. April 28. (Spe cial.)

GRANT B. DIMIGK ANSWERS QUERIES Republican Aspirant for-Governor Tells Views in Letter to The Oregonian. ECONOMY PLAN' OUTLINED Fish and. Game Commission Named as One to Be Abolished), Old Tax Law Defended and Tax for Road Work Advocated. Grant B. Dimick, of Oregon City, aspirant for the Republican . nomina tion for Governor, has written the fol lowing letter In answer to questions asked by The Oregonian of the various candidates for Governor: OREGON CITY, April 27. (To the Editor.) I hereby acknowledge re ceipt of your letter of recent date con taining a list of questions submitted to the candidates for the nomination for Governor, and herewith submit to you my answers to the same. ' Question No. 1: "What reforms In-I legislation do you advocate that will tend to bring about reduced taxation and economy in state affairs?" In answer to this question I will say that I would remind the Legislature of the hardships created by excessive ap propriations during the session of 1913, and the creation of salaried boards and commissions which carry with them ex cessive expense accounts to be met by the taxpayers of the state, and If the members of the Legislature failed to practice economy in state affairs I would attempt to do so myself with the veto power rested In the Gov ernor. I would insist upon the con solidation of a large number of our present boards and commissions and the absolute abolition of others; the duties performed by those abolished to be placed in the hands o ithe state board consisting of the Governor, Sec retary of State and State Treasurer without additional compensation, there. by placing the responsibility of ex penditures where the responsibility be longs. Game Commission Cited. In answer to question No. 2, "What state commissions are you in favor of abolishing?" and question No. 8, "What state commissions are you in favor of consolidating?" I have not now the time to eto throutrh these matters care fully and segregate those which should be consolidated from those which I think should be abolished, as it would require considerable time to intelli gently solve these problems. But as an illustration I will take, for instance. the State Fish and Game Commission as now constituted, and would recom mend that the same be abolished and the duties assigned that commission be placed in the hands of the State Board, consisting of the Governor, Secretary of State and State Treasurer, who should be authorized to select a com missioner who would pursue a straight, businesslike policy. The report of the State Treasurer shows that during the year 1913 there was expended from the game protec tion fund $140,496.17. which indicates to the average taxpaper that the com mission form of game protection is ex ceedingly extravagant and should be abolished. I would also recommmend the aboli tion of every salmon hatchery main tained by the state and leave the prop agation of salt water fish to the Fed eral Government, as the Federal Gov ernment is now successfully engaged in that work; and to further aid our salmon industry I would recommend the absolute prohibition of every fish- wheel and fishtrap in the Columbia River and its tributaries. Why should the use of the gillnets be prohibited at certain times of the week and certain seasons of the year in order that salt water fish may go up the Columbia and Us tributaries to their natural spawn ing grounds and then allow the fish wheel and fishtrap operators in the Upper Columbia to grab them up and thereby cause a demand for expensive artificial propagation? Tax Query Answered. Question No. 4 "Are you in favor of retaining or abolishing the State Tax Commission V The regulation of state taxes should be left In the hands of the State Board, consisting of the Governor, Secretary of State and State Treasurer, with au thority to appoint one commissioner skilled in that particular line of work; and the County Assessors of the sev eral counties should be subservient to the demands of the State Board and as sess the taxable property of the state as by law required, so that all taxable property shall be assessed at its true cash value. The true cash value shall be taken to mean what the property would sell for in the open market In the ordinary course of business, tak lng Into consideration Its nearness to market and other local advantages. Question No. 6. "How should taxes be paid, annually, semi-annually, or quarterly T In answer to this question I will Btate that the tax collection law in force prior to its change in 1913 by the Legislative Assembly was satisfactory. -and there was no demand for any tink ering with that law by the Legislature, thereby creating hardships on a large number of our taxpayers. I am in favor of the payment of taxes semi-an nually by the re-establishment of the tax law which was amended by the Legislature of 1913. v Road Tax Urged. ' Question No. 6. "Are you In favor of the state issuing bonds for good roads? What are your Ideas as to state aid for good roads? I am not in favor of the state issuing bonds for good roads, but I am in favor of the present law levying one-quarter of a mill annually for road purposes so that the state will be in a position to assist those counties that he help ing themselves, and which places the state at large in partnership with a movement that means so much for our general welfare. I am in favor of our present county unit bonding system, so that the legal voters of each county in the state will have the right to bond their unit for permanent road con struction, and to be informed at the time of the election what roads will be improved and the nature of the Im provement, from the money derived irom the sale or tneir Donas. Question No. 1. "Are you in favor of the state issuing bonds or appropriate ing money for reclaiming arid lands within the state?" I am in favor of the state loaning Its crredit for reclaiming its arid and semi-arid lands, either by issuing bonds or otherwise, provided, however, the state secures itself by first mort gages upon the land reclaimed at a fair rate of interest, so that the re claiming of those lands will be no bur den on the taxpayers at large. Every acre of arid lands reclaimed immedl ately becomes tax-producing property for the state, and at the same time adds to our annual farm production. Question No. 8. "What are yonr ideas as to staet aid for reclaiming arid lands?" My answer to question No. 7 stands as my answer to question No. 8. GRANT B. DIMICK. MARINE INTELLIGENCE. Steamer Schedule.

A serious "situation requires a posi tive remedy, and it is so with the var ious ailments that afflict mankind. In cases of that peculiar form of liver trouble known as biliary colic, where hardened bile forms into stones in the gall bladder, and fearful pains start at the margin of the ribs on the right side and extend down the shoulders and the entire abdomen, it is useless to rub on liniments or to take laxa tives, purgatives or "liver remedies" as they do not reach the cause of the trouble.

Initiative Measures Won Id Establish In. dustrirs By IO PfrP Cent Tax Oa Estates of Dead Persons. SALEJt, Or., April 28. (SpeciaL) To provide work for the unemployed and means for the distribution and sale of their products Is the purpose of an iniatlvt amendment to the State Consti tution prepared by the Socialist Party, a copy of which was submitted to Sec retary of State Olcott today for ap proval as to form. B. F. Remp. chair man, of Brooks, and B. L. Cannon, sec retary, of Salem, prepared the amend ment. It Is provided that a Department of Industry and Public Works, which shall be under tht supervision and control of the State Labor Commissioner, shall be created. It shall establish industries, systems of transportation, distributing stations and public works for the em ployment of the unemployed The emendment furthtr provides that the funds for maintaining the depart ment shall be derived from a tax upon estates of dead persons appraised at 850,000 or more, and from appropria tions that may be made for the work. The tax on estates shall be not less than 10 per cent and may be graduated above that. It shall be collected in the same manner as the Inheritance tax. All incomes from the operations of the industries under the department case in point is that of Mrs. Ella E. King, of 26 Dresden St., Springfield. Mass., who had these symptoms and the usual vomiting,- chills and fever. Her doctor said she had gall stones, and she was operated on, but this same doctor told her these gall stones would probably come back again. They did, quite recently, but Instead of being operated on again Mrs. King this time took Fruitola, and she writes that she is now entirely well. She knows several other ladies in Springfield who took Fruitola with similarly good results. - This would indicate that the least one can do who has these symptoms is to try a bottle of Fruitola. A bottle is taken in one dose, so there are no long delays in finding out If the remedy will be effective. Fruitola has also proven very val uable to people who cannot get relief from chronic constipation with the ordinary run of' laxatives, etc. It is prepared only by the Plnus Medicine Co., Montlcello, I1L, for .whom . this is published and can be obtained at any drugstore with full dlretcions for use.
