New Store
Talks
Number Twelve
It may be of interest to the
public to know that the fifteen
large glass plates for the front
show windows in the new store
are the largest ever brought to
Portland. The risk and the great
cost of handling made this a
very precarious matter. All the
plate glass used in this huge
building was brought here in
special railway cars known as
"gondolas," which allow the case
to rest within a foot of the road
bed and thus, in spite of the
great height, clear obstructions
such as bridges, tunnels, etc., en
route. The plates are packed
three in a case and it required
fourteen men to handle each
plate and set it in place in the
building.
All the exterior windows in
the new building are glazed with
the best quality polished Amer
ican plate glass, with the excep
tion of the transom lights over
the show windows, which are
prism plate glass, polished on
one side and with prismatic cor
rugations on the other to reflect
the light back into the store.
All elevator and stair en
closures are glazed with wire
glass, which is as nearly fire
proof as any material can be.
There are about 25,000 separate
lights of wire glass used in the
interior of the store.

0ILT0N FRANCHISE PENDS
Xo Agreement Yet Readied Between
United Rs!lijs and Coontj.
No agreement was reached yesterday
between the county and the United
Railways on the freight franchise be
tween Portland and Oilton. and the use
of the railroad to Llnnton is still held
up on this account. O. M. Clark and
others have asked a passenger fran
chise over the same tracks to Linnton,
and this cannot be ;ranted until the
terms for the freight franchise are
agreed upon.
Mr. Clark and his associates have
appeared several times before th
County Commissioners in an attempt
to forestall any possible move to adopt
the freight franchise without passing
on their own. If one franchise is
adopted before the other, they point
out. the first one will have precedence.
Mr. Clark seeks to establish a t-cent
fare to Linnton. and wants both fran
chises adopted In one resolution.
