portunity to Make Friends and
"Women to Be Entertained.
Enough laundrymen to make Port
land a new "Spotless Town" distributed
themselves among the three head
quarters for delegates to the National
Laundrymen's convention yesterday,
and made merry regardless of the fact
that the war In Europe has shot prices
of many washing compounds higher
than a runaway Zeppelin and wages for
laundry labor have increased 100 per
cent in the past few years.
Perhaps one reason why they didn't
let such serious things weigh their
spirits down yesterday was because the
business sessions of the convention are
not to begin until this morning, and
the laundrymen seem to be a crowd
that is satisfied not to borrow trouble
trom the future.
The National Association delegates
were theoretically at headquarters at
the Multnomah Hotel, the Interstate
Association delegates at the Imperial
and the California and Montana dele
gates at the Oregon.
Automobile Rides Enjoyed.
Theoretically only, however, for the
delegates were dashing back and forth
between the various headquarters all
day long, exchanging greetings and
sampling the supplies of cigars and re
freshments that the local committees
had provided at all places. They said
that they were good at all places, by
the way. '
Yesterday morning and afternoon the
delegates were taken for auto rides to
Crown Point and a buffet luncheon at
the Automobile Club. ' Last night they
were guests at an informal dinner and
reception at the Multnomah Hotel.
Never was seen in Portland- such an
array of immaculate collars and shirt
bosoms as one might note among the
hundreds of visiting delegates yester
day afternoon. Whatever may be one's
experience with collars broken in the
edge, he would have felt impelled to
gaze with envy upon the beautiful,
smooth, shining edges of the collars of
the visiting laundrymen.
As to the effect of the war upon prod
ucts used in laundry work, the visitors
were agreed that prices had been
boosted.
"Oxalic acid, potash and many other
chemicals which we use in laundry
work - have been increased greatly in
price," said M. J. Mireau, of Cleveland,
"and the cost of operating laundries
has been much increased in this way.
Wages also have increased tremendous
ly within the past 10 years, and if there
were no way to offset these influences,
you would be paying lots more for your
clean collars today than you did five
years ago, or evena year ago.
"The laundryman's method of offset
ting these Influences Is to Increase the
mechanical efficiency of his laundry and
his system of handling laundry. The
fact that they have been, in the main,
able to do this steadily and successfully
is indicated by the fact that there has
been comparatively little increase in
the prices of laundry in the past few
years."
The California delegation will bring
a big grievance against the Oriental
laundries before the convention, for the
competition of this kind of laundry is
strongly felt on the Pacific Coast. One
movement will be for legislation to
regulate the service of white women
in Oriental laundries, which has been
increasing lately until there are sev
eral hundred white women employed
in laundries in Oakland, San Francisco
and other California cities.
Delegate Plan to Get Convention.
Cincinnati is coming out strong for
the next National convention, and has
sent to Portland a delegation of about
20. headed by S. B. Waters, ex-president
of the National Association. The cam
paign of Cincinnati for the convention
began with the arrival of the first dele
gates yesterday, and was carried on
with enthusiasm at all three headquar
ters. The only other competitor that
has appeared thus far for the conven
tion of 1916 is Kansas City, which is
eaid to be preparing to make a fight
for it.
The laundrymen from .Chicago came
In a special. In a party of about 80
under the leadership of C. M. Leary'
eales manager for the Troy Laundry
Machinery Company. Mr. Leary is mak
ing up another party in Portland to go
after the conyention, to San Francisco
to visit the exposition.
In the Chicago delegation is the big
gest laundryman on record, according
to his companions. He Is Olaf S. Sea
borg, weighing 318 pounds, and his com-
ueciare mat He is as much of
a heavyweight in business as he is in
body.

"Dreamer" to Be Identified
With "Willys-Overland Co.
"Jimmie, you are a dreamer," once
said J. C. Stubbs, railroad magnate, to
a young fellow in the employ of the
Southern Pacific Railroad a few years
ago.
"Well, Mr. Stubbs, did you ever know
any big thing to be done that some
body hadn't first dreamed about?" re
plied Jimmie, and from the conversa
tion thus started, the Southern Pa
clfic's project of taking water from
.the Colorado River and making the
Imperial Valley of California what It
Is today was developed.
Jimmie. was James Horsburgh. Jr.
famous general passenger agent of the
Southern Pacific, and now after 40
years with the company as boy and
man, Mr. Horsburgh has resigned from
the company and will identify himself
with the Willys-Overland Automobile
Company.
William McMurray, of Portland, gen
eral passenger agent of the O.-W. R,
& N. has recently received the news
of the resignation of the veteran raili
road man, and yesterday rehearsed a
few of the accomplishments of Mr.
Horsburgh during his association with
the Southern, Pacific.
Work for California Important.
"So one has done more than Mr.
Horsburgh to promote the interests of
California," said Mr. McMurray yes
terday. "He was first to get behind
the Imperial Valley project; first to
think of a 'Raisin day': Sunset Man

Great Service Done Portland.
"His advertising of the 'Road of a

CHANGES ARE URGED
Bar Association Committee
Proposes New Court Rules.
MEETING TO BE TUESDAY
Suggestion Made That All Judge
Serve In Rotation as Pres.ldln
Orricer YVliose Duty It Shall
Be to Assign AH Cases.
Numerous changes In the procedure
of the Multnomah Circuit Court are
proposed by a system of court rules
drawn up by a committee appointed by
the Multnomah Bar Association. These
rules will be discussed at a meeting of
the association Tuesday evening In
Judge Cleeton's courtroom. The plan
of the association Is to assist the
court In the framing of a uniform sys
tem of court rules.
In framing the rules the lommliUi
took the best of the old rules, the best
of those now in use and also adopted
some new provisions. Probably the
most important sections of the pro
posed rules are those having to do with
the presiding Judge and defining his
powers.
The proposed new rules would have
all the Judges serve In rotation for a
certain specified time as the presiding
ud(te. The duty of the presiding
judge . would be to hear preliminary
cases and hold special hearings and
also at the opening of each court day
to assign the cases to the different
departments.
At present the presiding judge holds
office for a period of three months
and the cases are assigned weeks
ahead of time by lot. This, it is point
ed out. means that often one court
will have nothing to do, when another
Is rushed with work. The presiding
Judge also at present hears cases like
any of the other Judges. The old sys
tem In use In the county about three
years ago made one Judge presiding
Judire during an entire term.
The proposed rules make provision
for punishing any person who t-hould
attempt to get a case assigned to any
particular Judge. With reference to
this it says:
"Any attorney who shall endeavor to
Influence the clerk or court to assign
any case to any particular department
and any clerk whose duty It may be
to assign cases for trial who shall, at
the request of any person except the
presiding Judge, assign any case to any
particular Judge for trial, shall be
deemed guilty of contempt of court
and may be punished by fine, suspen
sion or otherwise by the presiding
Judge."
The proposed rules would also give
the presiding judge power over the
empaneling of the Jury and also charge
of that body. Defining this. It says
"It shall be the duty of the presiding
Judge to attend and supervise the draw
ing of the Jury, to order the Jury sum
moned, to empanel the grand Jury
when one is called and to take gen
eral charge of the trial Jury.
The rules also give the presiding
judge power to call a Joint session of
two or more of the Judges of the court
to hear any trial.

HL KADER PRAISED
BY VISITING NOBLES
Shriners' Elaborate Enter

Tourists to Portland.
200 GUESTS LAST DAY
288 Cars Travel 30,000 Miles on
City Streets, $20,000 Sjeut,
Signs Direct to Best Homes
and AVl.-hes Promptly Met.
Every Shriner who passed through
Portland, either on the way to Seattle
or on the way home, left this city sing- I
ing the praise of Portland hospitality.
It is to be expected If one considers
the work done by Al Kader Temple
during the last three or four days.
About -00 stragglers were enter
tained yesterday by the Portland
Shrine. Automobile and streetcar rides
furnished the greater part of the en
tertain merit. This morning but a few
foreign fezzes will be seen on the
6treets.
For the few days that the Al Kader
Temple was host to the visitors.
automobiles were in constant service.
These machines traveled nearly 30.000
miles, or about 110 miles for every ma
chine. One-third of the machines used
were not the property of hriners. and
members of the entertainment commit
tee have appreciated the help given by
friends who materially assisted In the
reception of visitors.
Arrant Point Best Rontra.
Most of the automobile mileage was
recorded within the city limits and on
the paved streets. Twenty-two miles
of red and blue arrows Indicated the
best routes to travel, and the city offi
cials were particularly careful to keep
these "arrow routes" absolutely clean.
This unique Idea of posting the shrine
arrows was originated by Ira F. Powers.
nd it facilitated the handling of vis
itors materially.
Some of the work that orainariiy
would be done by the Chamber oi
Commerce was done by the Shrlners.
who had printed at their own ex
pense thousands of booklets describing
Portland, views of the city. Informa
tion and pictures or tne v.oiumui
Highway and other data valuable and
interesting to the tourists.
Correspondence Work. r re-e.
Information booths, where literature
was distributed, were maintained at
the depots. stenographers were sta
tioned at the hotels and the correspond
ence of the visiting JShrlners was done
without cost. Even the stamps cost
the visitors nothing.
A little less than J10.000 was spent
by the shrine, and about the same
amount was spent by individuals for
the visitors entertainment. It Is es
timated that Portland was guest to
6000 Shriners. each one of whom spent
at least IS during his stay.
Portland Shriners have worked prac
tically day and night for the last four
days to carry out the entertainment
programme.
Thurston Folk Ak Bridge.
CENTRALIA. Wash, July 18 (Spe

pressure to bear on the Thurston Coun
ty Commissioners for the construction
of a bridge over the Chehalls River at
the latter town. The expense of the
bridge must be borne jointly by Thurs
ton and Urays Harbor counties. The
Commissioners of the latter county have
signified their willingness to build the
bridge and a new road Into Oakville.
The bridge will shorten the distance
six miles between Independence and
