The rumble at the presses early in tho morning when the last section went to press was the signal for much activity. Improvised newsstands had been erect ed in all parts cf the bflslness district, and large bundles of the Issue were hurried to the venders and prepared for mailing. The isues were wrapped In The Oregonian mailing-rooms and were stamped by the boys. Thousands of copies were sold and found their way into the malls destined to various parts of the world. Rata Km Hladranre. Drenching rain which fell during the early part of the day failed to dsrmpen the ardor of the newsboys. They moved their stands into the entrances of stores or buildings and from these sheltered places kept up their work during the day. Tho sales will con tinue.

Following are some of the expres sions of business men and others on the edition: Mayor Albee I think It Is -an excep tionlly fine issue. I was particularly attracted by the growth of the city and state in commercial lines and by the contrast as shown in pictures ol the old and the new comers in the business section. I thought this con-tra-t exceedingly striking. W. K. Woodward It is a practical annual. It is finely published and is Just what we need to help the state. It tells in Just the right way the things outsiders should know and the things which we know but do not heed. I was particularly impressed by the sections of the issue In which the great possi bilities in Oregon are related in word and picture. K. W. Wright I think the edition is an unusually fine showing. The man ner of handling the statistics and the commercial phases of the state were particularly good. Best !(," Saa D. M. Danae. David M. Dunne It is The Orego nian's best Issue. In my opinion. It Is wonderfully illustrated. 1 am greatly Impressed with the splendid way in which industrial Oregon is handled. A. ir. Averill It is the most prac tical edition I have seen. It isn't a booster edition. All the subjects are handled in a fair and conservative TOfy, which cannot help but appeal to people throughout the country who may read It. It is a splendid piece of work. C C Chapman It is a valuable edi tion I think it is the duty of every person to send a copy to Eastesa friends along with a letter. It will do a. great deal toward promoting the "Buy - your - ticket - via-Oregon" cam paign A clever Idea In the edition is the showing of pictures of business . orners present and past. This. Indeed. Is impressive. The agricultural sub jects were handled in fine shape. V P Olds It Is a beautiful edition a credit to the city, the state and the county. The entire Issue is ex tremely valuable because it tells so much so clearly. tnlendld Keausae. Saya V. C. Kaapa. F" C. Knapp It Is a splendid resume cf the" activities of the state Good Judgment was used In selecting con tributors and in candnlng everything to facts It is an excellent record of the activities in all lines and it should be distributed freely. Julius Meier It is a fine piece of work. It gives a splendid Idea of what we are doing. We are ao favor ably Impressed that we Intend send ing copies to all our Eastern connec tions. I was particularly Impressed with the fine wsy In which the subjects of road construction, agriculture and manufacturing were handled. T B. Wilcox There is a vast lot of good information in the edition, not only as to what has been done, but what can be done In Oregon. There are many valuable suggestions which. If followed, will make this a bigger and better state. "Extremely good la the term I would use In describing the edition. xvasnea AIM Pay Tribute. - Mrs. O J. Frankel. president of the Portland Woman's Club and Monday Musical Club The Oregonian annual Is a great credit to Portland. It is well edited. Tho pictures tell an eloquent story of progress.

She will trade stations with the tender Columbine, which goes to the Hawaiian Islands. The Kukul has substantial derricks and her high bow is regarded better for navigating through ice. The vessels will trade crews. Late advices are that the steamer Rio Pasig. which will load here in the Royal Mail service for the other side of the Pacific, sailed from Manila Christmas day. Captain Nellson, who brought the ship Poltalloch here, left last night for British Columbia to take command of the British yeoman, and with him went several seamen who were in the Poltal loch's crew. As the latter was shifted from the British to the American flag here, the crew was discharged and Brit ish subjects signed on in Australia will be returned there. Early in the week the Japanese tramp Shintsu Maru may finish her cargo of creosoted ties at St. Helens, which will be delivered In British India. She will have approximately 3.000,000 feet. The schooner Wm. H. Smith should take on tlfe last of her lumber cargo today for New Zealand that will measure about 700,000 feet. High. Low. 2:01 A. M 8.0 feetl7:29 A. M S.6 feet 1:05 P.

Two Steamers Reach Destinations , With Cargoes From Portland and Are Offered AgainMost Ex pected to Come Back. Portland opened the year 1315 with a combined fleet of grain ships in port and en route representing 102.071 tons, the largest that has been on the boards at the Merchants' Exchange January 1 for several years. Of the total, there are 14 ships of 26,614 tons in port and 38 of 75,457 tons on the way. January 1, 1914, the tonnage was 31,638, there being eight vessels of 16,832 tons on the way and the .same number of A.806 tons In port. At the opening of 1913 there were 53,183 tons, of which 18,229 tons represented njne ships en route and 34,954 tons a fleet of 17 carriers in port. The 1912, figures were 38,729 tons and included 12 ships listed as of 23,188 tons and eight of 15,641 tons in port. When 1911 was ushered in, all carriers represented 50.861 tons, with 21 of 42,719 tons headed this way and nine of 18,142 tons in the harbor. . Two Vessels Offered Again. The British steamers Crlstano and Ventura de Lerrlnaga. which have ar rived ont with grain cargoes from Portland, were reported yesterday to be offered again and it is believed most of the steamers that have been dispatched will find their way back to this Coast. 'The' ship Castleton, which was reputed as sailing from Antofo gasta December 1, got away Novem ber 1. according to a corrected mes sage that reached the Merchants' Ex change yesterday. The Denmark and Cambuskenneth are looked for any time now and others are thought to be making the last tacks of their voyages toward the Columbia. Three sailers on the way have been insured to arrive, the cost to their charterers ranging from $40 to $80. War Risk:' Rates Go Down. It is said the war risks on cargoes bound for the United Kingdom are available at from 2 to 2 per cent, as compared with 4 per cent quoted before the British naval vessels made inroads against German ships menacing com merce in the Pacific and South Atlantic. Two ballast shiDS. the Kinross-shire and Port Caledonia, were worked at Llnnton yesterday, so that tney wouia be ready for wheat as soon as possible, while the Norwegian bark Eidsvold and the British ship Celtic Glen arrived up and were berthed at Linnton. BTJOYS PUT OJT ALiBERS DOCKS Head of Harbor Police Thinks All AVharves Should Be Equipped. Albers Bros, have completed the in stallation, of ring buoys on Docks Nos. 1, 2 and 3, adjoining the west approach of the Broadway bridge. They are ih. o.nH tn npnvMA such saf ee:uards. The Commission of Public Works made the initial move In placing ring buoys along the river side of Municipal Dock No. 1. The same system will be fol lowed on Municipal Dock No. 2, which Is under construction Detween x.t VYaMllllGLVU aim . ..... .

Two years ago, a few individuals banded and provided buoys for public boat houses and others are maintained on bridges, but tho danger of persons falling from docks has shown the need for them there. ' ALU IHTES IXCREASE RATES More" Northbound Business to Be Handled in Near Future. Private letters from San Francisco indicate that the advance in steamer rates on northbound shipments, which become effective January 11. will be participated in by the San Francisco & Portland Steamship Company, Norta Pacific Steamship Company, Arrow Line, Dodge Steamship Company and m Ou 'Kfr, r,f.r,nw linA HO t.llRt 1X16 larger lines and the regular steam schooners win maniumi form tariff than in the past. Shippers have been given no intima tion that the southbound tariff will be disturbed, though wheat lumber and such freight is moving under decidedly low rates. Cereal shipments will be re sumed to California shortly in Quan tity, orders having been placed for large amounts to move before Spring, and in addition to the steady north bound consignments oranges and lem ons from the Los Angeles district and sugar from the Hawaiians will be started this month. - ' PIERRE AXTON1XE .

Longshoremen are nl?h'n 1: ward cargo of the French bark Pierre Antonine, which has been in the river fince November 19. when she arrived from Antwerp with general freight- She should be ready in a few days to start wheat for the United Kingdom This has been a troublesome visit for the bark. On her arrival in the lower harbor she lost both anchors and was delayed several days pending their re covery. On reaching here it was found that her cargo had been stowed so that it could not be discharged rapidly, and additional detention resulted In her owners libeling the cargo, charging that the unloading had been delayed because it was Insisted that it be seg regated before being landed on the dock, so her lay days had expired. Then her cook fell between the dock and ship and was seriously injured. FIREBOAT AT ALASKA DOCK Alarms From Lower Harbor District Can Be Responded To Quickly. Temporarily the fireboat Geo. H.
