DISTRIBUTION OF
LAtJD FUND DEGIOED
Sub-Committee Agrees on 40
Per Cent to Counties and
10 Per Cent to State.
GOVERNMENT GETS TENTH
Remaining 40 Per Cent (iocs to Gen
eral Reclamation fund KTIort
i to Increase State's Share
loos Not Succeed.
OREGOXIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, March 22. Under an agree
ment reached today by the sub-committee
in charge of the Oregon & Cali
fornia land errant bill, the net receipts
from sales of timber and lands will be
oistributed as follows:
Forty per ctnt to the land errant
counties, 10 per cent to tne state of
Oregon, 40 per cent to the general
reclamation fund, and 10 per cent to
the Federal Treasury. This section,
as agreed to. provides that the 40 per
cent paid to the counties shall be to
aid in the construction of "roads, high
ways and bridges."
Representative Sinnott sought to se
cure an amendment which would sanc
tion the use of a part of this m'oney for
common schools, but Representative
IaFollette, of Washington, was his
only supporter and his amendment was
voted down, ko that as the bill stands
no part of the county's receipts can
be expended for common schools.
State's Share Not Increased.
Representative Sinnott also made a
fight for a full 40 per cent for the
tate, but again was voted down, and
he failed also when he asked even 20
per cent for the state.
When the committee proposed to turn
another 40 per cent into the reclama
tion fund Representative Sinnott of
fered an amendmentrequiring that this
money be spent exclusively on irriga
tion projects in Oregon.
Representatives Raker, Lenroot and
Mays assailed this proposal and suc
ceeded in voting it down, as they did
another amendment by the Oregon
member giving to Oregon projects one
half of the moneys set apart for recla
mation purposes.
Throughout the consideration of the
bill by the sub-committee Representa
tive Raker, of California, chairman of
the sub-committee, who had the decid
ing vote in case of a tie. has cast his
vote consistently against every propo
sal madi by Representative Sinnott.
Sales Since July 1, 1013, Invalidated.
The sub-committee amended the first
section of the Chamberlain bill so that
it provides for revesting title in tire
United States .as to ail lands not sold
by the railroad company on July 1,
1913. the date of Judge Wolverton's
decree. This, in effect, will invalidate
any sales made subsequent to that date.
On motion of Representative Sinnott,
section four, providing for timber sales,
was amended to authorize the sale of
timber by 40-acre tracts as proposed in
the original Chamberlain bill, in order
that those wishing to buy small tracts
of timber may do so.
There was complete agreement on
that section of the bill which provides
for the payment in full to the coun
ties of all accrued unpaid taxes, with
penalties.
Section 12 was amended to leave the
enforcement of the act in the hands
of the Secretary of the Interior, rather
than in the hands of the Commissioner
of the General Land Office.
1 00,000 Allowed for Classification.
The committee adopted a provision ap
propriating $100,000 to classify all the
lands of the grant.
The committee will consider and
ndopt tomorrow amendments to be
drawn by Representatives McArthur
and Hawley providing for the reserva
tion of grand lands necessary for the
protection of the water supply of Port
land, Oregon City and Corvallis.
These amendments will turn into the
Bull Run Reserve all the grant lands
within the present reserve boundaries,
about 11,000 acres; will reserve about
3000 acres on Mary's Peak, near Cor
vallis, and add to existing reserves 2000
acres in the , water, shed from which
Oregon City derives its water. When
this is done, only section seven, con
firming outstanding contracts, will re
main to be disposed of. The Indications
are this amendment will be reported
adversely by the sub-committee. The
report of the sub-committee probably
will go back to the full committee Sun
day or Monday.

VISTA GUP AWARDED
Washington High School Wins
in Fund Contest.
MR. LANCASTER SPEAKER
Tag Day by Winners Nets $143, for
'Benefit of Memorial to Bo
Built at Crown. Point on
Columbia Highway.
The Vista House cup, won by Wash
ington High School, in competition
with .he other high schools of the
city, was formally presented yesterday
morning in the auditorium of the high
school. Samuel C. Iancaster- officiated
at the ceremony on behalf of the Vista
House Association and it was ac
cepted by Ted Peterson, president of
the student body. School songs and
yells were an enlivening feature of
the ceremonies.
The Chamber of Commerce was rep
resented by V. E. Conklin and E. H.
Holt.
The beautiful silver cup, about 15
inches high, was offered by the Vista
House Association to the high school
which would make the best per capita
showing in its contributions to the
Vista House fund. The "Washington
High School, with its contribution of
143, made the highest single contri
bution in the contest, as well as the
best per capita showing. A tag day
was held and tags were sold among the
students with the result that a con
tribution averaging slightly more
than 10 cents a student was made.
In his address to the students, Sam
uel C. Lancaster dwelt particularly
upon the wonders of the Columbia
River Highway in the effort to impress
his hearers with the fact that the drive
is something of world-wide interest,
in spite of the fact that it is,, fig
uratively speaking, just at the door
way of Portland. He told of his re
cent trip East with the Berger-Jones
color pictures of the highway and of the
widespread interest which those pic
tures are creating.
He also commended the students on
the interest which they had shown
and the splendid showing made in rais
ing money for the proposed Vista
House.

ROSEBURG. Or., March 22. (Spe
cial.) That the people of Roeeburg will
not give up because of yesterday's ad
verse decision of the Oregon Supreme
Court in the railroad case, but will
proceed to get the railroad through
other channels, was the general expres
sion of local people today.
Attorneys who passed most of today
examining the decision of the Supreme
Court are of the opinion that the bonds
voted in June. 1915, are valid, and
the adverse ruling merely pertaine to
the contract. If this is true, the cit
izens here will probablv make an ef
fort to use the $300,000 bonds in build
ing a railroad from Roseburg to the
forest reserve, as provided by the orig
inal charter amendment adopted by the
voters of this city. In this event, the
proceedings of the town of Grants Pass,
which two yeare ago voted bonds for
railroad construction, will be followed
to the letter.

STRIKE PICKETS PLACED
SEATTLE STEAMSHIP OWNERS ASK
POLICE PROTECTION.
Many -Negroes, Passing Teata as Re

River, Fill Vacancies.
SEATTLE, Wash., March 22. Mem
bers of the Puget Sound Steamship
men's Union, which called out 400 men
employed on steamers plying between
Puget Sound ports Monday night, be
gan picketing the waterfront today.
Strikers carrying banners announcing
that the steamers were "unfair to or
ganized labor'" were stationed in front
of all the wharves from which the
local boats depart.
The steamship owners tonight asked
the police for additional men to patrol
the waterfront. There has been no
disorder since the strike began. The
strikers are demanding wage increases
ranging from $5 to 15 a month, which
the steamship owners have rejected.
All the steamers were operated on
regular schedule today. The com
panies said they had sufficient men to
fill the strikers' places.
Many of the strikebreakers are ne
groes, who, when they appeared before
the customs authorities for examina
tion for seaman's certificates, obtained
them readily by showing that they had
had ample experience on Mississippi
River boats.
HOKOKTJ 3IARU IS MISSIXG
Steamer With Wheat Cargo From
Portland Posted at Lloyds.
LONDON, March 22. The Japanese
steamship Hokoku Maru, long overdue,
was posted as missing at Lloyds today.
She left Portland, Or., November 8 with
a cargo of wheat for the United King
dom, and was last reported leaving
Singapore December 20.
As the Hokoku Maru was named on
the board at Lloyd's, in London, as
overdue March 15, and shoVtly before
that reinsurance at the rate of 75 per
cent had been quoted on .her, it was
viewed as certain that in a few days
the big bell, used there to toll out news
that another ship -was missing, soon
would be heard to mark the passing
of the vessel. She carried 152,913
bushels of wheat from Portland that
was loaded by Balfour, Guthrie & Co.,
valued on a basis of jl a bushel and
fully insured. The ship was covered
by insurance to the amount of J225.000.
On getting away from Singapore the
master sent a wireless to his employers
at Kobe that he would shape his course
via the Cape of Good Hope, fearing
submarine interference if the usual
route was followed. He had decided
on that before leaving Portland. The
steamer should have reported at Dur
ban about January 10. Another Japa
nese, the Senju Maru, disappeared in
the Mediterranean several months ago.

YARD SITE IS SOUGHT
Japanese Shipowners Propose
Trade Center in Portland.
CITY MAY LEASE ,G ROUND
Business in 'Hardwood From Japan'
and Iron Bark From Australia,
AVhlcli Is Used Extensively .
in Repairs, Is Considered.
To assemble various kinds of hard
wood, from Japan, not confining the
business to oak. while iron bark from
Australia, used extensively in marine
construction and repairs, will be car
ried in stock as well, is the purpose of
Mitsui & Co., well-known Japanese
shipowners and who have vast com
mercial interests, in negotiating for a
site on the waterfront for the estab
lishment of a yard.
It is understood the Commission of
Public Docks will have before K a
proposition at today's session for leas
ing the company ground for the yard,
and if satisfactory arrangements are
made, delivery will be provided in less
than a month of the initial shipment
of 1.350,000 feet.
The Commission may apportion space
at Municipal Dock No. 2. on the East
Side.
Distribution Center Propose!.
J. A. Pattison, who has charge of the
lumber department of the Mitsui in
terests here, said last night that in the
past shipments had been made to Port
land on contracts, delivery being made
on the dock; but with the establish
ment of a yard Portland would become
a center for distribution in carlots,
as well as smaller quantities.
Heretofore the Importation of Jap
anese hardwood has been virtually con
fined to oak, much of It coming from
Otaru. but there are other materials
for which an active market exists, and
at times there may be 3,000,000 feet
assembled here.
The Japanese steamer Tami Maru
is loading 1,350.000 feet on the other
side for Portland, and 500,000 feet ad
ditional would be loaded on the Nl
chiyo Maru. while additional steamers
to be named will continue regular ship
ments to insure complete yard stocks
being on hand.
Site With F-aellltles Sought.
Negotiations are on with private land
owners on the waterfront, but a loca
tion on property controlled by the
Commission of Public Docks is sought,
because all facilities are installed for
discharging onto docks and moving
the material across to the yard, while
trackage connections are in and rail
shipments jvould be facilitated.
In the past Mitsui & Co. has handled
considerable business in the Northwest,
and, with Portland in line as the prin
cipal headquarters, it is believed the
opening of a hardwood yard will lead
to other desirable developments that
will wield a strong influence in a re
sumption of the Oriental trade, for
which commercial interests are striv
ing. PROHIBITED IMPORTS NAMED
United Kingdom Regulations Re
ceived Bearing on Shipments.
British Consul Harry L. Sherwood is in
receipt of official information relative
to prohibited imports into the United
Kingdom and he in turn has supplied
the Chamber of Commerce with the de
tails so exporters may be in touch with
the nature of the restrictions.
A statement issued from his office
covers the following:
All materials for manufacture of paper
and cardboard, manufacturers thereof, and
all periodical publications exceeding 16 pages
in length imported otherwise than in single
copies by post.
Tobacco, raw and manufactured.
Furniture woods, hardwoods and ''veneers.
Stones and slates.
With regard to paper, importers will he
allowed to bring forward during the y-ar
from March 1 two-thirds of their total im
ports or consumption during ll14.
With regard to tobacco, wood and stone,
permission will be given for importation of
all shipments which had been put on rail or
on board ship to order of consignee here
before February 15 or had actually been
paid for by that date.
With regard to wood, prohibition does
not apply to green ebony, fir pines, spruce,
oak, teak, ash. beech, birch, elm or wains
cot props or pltwood, sleepers or staves or
wood manufactures at present.
THREE DREDGES ARE HERE
Clatsop Tied Up at Moorings Until
Freshet Period Passes.
Three of the Government's self
propelling dredges are ir Portland
harbor today, the Clatsop having
reached the Government moorings yes
terday from Puget Island, joining the
big bar dredge Chinook, which is over
hauling at the former' site of Mont
gomery dock No. 1, and the bar dredge
Col. P. S. Michie, having work done at
the plant of the Vulcan Iron Works.
The Clatsop probably will be idle
until after the Summer freshet,' by
which time appropriations under the
rivers and harbors bill should be avail
able, so meantime most of her crew
will be discharged. The Chinook is to
be returned to the entrance of the Co
lumbia River in time to resume digging
May 1.
THIRD BAG STEAMER FIXED
Vessel May Be of Japanese Fleet Is
Opinion of Some.
Reports are current that another
steamer has been engaged to load bags
and burlap at Calcutta for the Pacific
Coast, the British steamer King Mal
colm and the Japanese steamer Atago
san Maru having been taken previously
for the same business. The King Mal
colm was canceled by the British Ad
miralty but released again, as she had
begun taking on bags and has since
sailed, so first will make San Francisco.
She may deliver a small part of her
cargo here, as she is under engagement
to Balfour, Guthrie & Co. to load grain
for the United Kingdom.
It is thought the third vessel re
ported is of the Japanese fleet.
liar Shoals at Black Buoy.
MARSHFIELD. Or.. March 22. (Spe
cial.) The recent survey of the Coos
Bay bar showed a decided shoaling at
the black buoy, which is anchored at
the end of the sunken jetty.- There
was 27 to 32 feet of water there when
the dredge Colonel P. S. Michie left
last Fall, but now there is 23 to 26
feet. Some other portions of the chan

extent. Before the Michie dredged
here the vicinity of the black buoy
had but 16 to 18 feet.

7,000,000 War Cargo Loaded.
TACOMA, Wafih., March 12. The
DANGER OF A COLD
The Danger Is Not in the Cold Itself, but the Serious Disease j
It So Often Leads To. X
To begin with, we should endeavor
to avoid taking cold. That can nearly
always be done, first, by avoiding the
association of persons who have colds,
as colds are catching. Second, by tak
ing, a cold sponge bath in a warm room
every morning before breakfast. Third,
by sleeping in a well-ventilated room.
Fourth, by keeping your feet dry and
warm. People who observe these pre
cautions seldom take cold. After a
cold has been contracted take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and observe
the directions with each bottle.
"Whenever any of my children catch
cold I give them Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy because it has been used by
members of my family for the past
twenty years and has always given
splendid satisfaction. It is pleasant
and safe to take and always gives
steamer Honolulan today began load
ing here the most valuable cargo ever
taken from Puget Sound. It consists of
war supplies for Vladivostok and is
Tt'orth J7. 000, 000. The docks have been
fenced in and are under heavy guard.
Marine Xotes.
Carrying New York cargo for Portland,
the American-Hawaiian liner Georgian
sailed from San Pedro yesterday and calls
at San Krancisco to discharge en route here.
Having received a supply of fuel oil, de
lay In obtaining which held her at Lewis
ton for two days, the steamer J. X. Teal
left there for Portland yesterday morning
and will reach here so as to depart on
the return tomorrow- night. The steamer
Twin Cities leaves Iewlston today and will
be started from Portland again Monday
night. The Dalies-Columbia line will erect
concrete oil tanks there Immediately so as
to guard against fuel shortages.
Captain G. Bjorkholm is master of the
gasoline schooner Tillamook, which entered
in ballast yesterday from Astoria, and will
load a cargo for Coos Bay, sailing Satur
day night. She is to remain on that run.
Captain J. Henry entered the French
bark Bossuet from Liverpool yesterday. She
has aboard 1300 tons of ballast to be dis
charged at the dock of the Star Sand Com
pany, St. Johns. The actual time of the
vessel to the river is said to have been
117 days, which is rated a rattling good
passage. especially when compared with
some of the late ones.
Lumber-laden for California, the steamer
Santa Barbara got away from Westport
last night.
Chief -. Engineer Larry Hansen, of the
steamer Helene, which arrived yesterday
from San Francisco, held a reunion with
Harbormaster Speier and will probably re
count old times with United States Boiler
Inspector Wynn before leaving port, as
the three were shipmates on the steamer
Santa Rosa in her early days, when she
was rated a crack liner. The Helene came
in ballast and was cleared for San Pedro
w.ith 700,000 feet of lumber.
Some idea of world-wide shipments of
paper from Portland, which has sent large
consignments to Australia, is given through
the as;semblying of a lot on Ainsworth dock
that Is hilled for Antofogasta. The rolls
are crated and will be transhipped at San
Francisco for the west coast city.
On the steamer Yosemlte. an arrival
from San Frncisco last night, were 679
tons of merchandise, consigned to the Farr
McCormick line.
Owing to the accumulation of freight,
the steamer Tahoma is to make a special
trip tonight from here to The Dalles.

New Strength for Lame Backs and Worn-Out Conditions.
Dear Mr. Editor:
I suffered from lame back and a
tired, worn-out feeling. Was unable to
stand erect and scarcely able to get
around. It would usually come on at first
with crick In small of my back. I took
one box of Dr. Pierce's Anurlc Tablets
and my back commenced to get better
.toon after starting to take them. I did
not have to walk doubled over as I did
before using the "Anuric." It Is the
best remedy I have ever taken for what
it Is intended to relieve. I hope those
who are in neod of such a remedy will
give these Tablets of Dr. Pierce's a
trial Yours truly.

Breakwater Beats Own Schedule.
Steaming into a berth at Columhi
dock at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Captain Macgenn brought the steamer
Breakwater in 10 hours in advance of.
the time originally BCt. Not only that,
but Captain Macpenn says he made up
time lost on the last voyage, when the
ship was late getting away from here.
Her new oil burners received a thor
ough test, and he says she travels a t
13Va to 14 knots and is making her
way into the speed class. From Coos
Bay the vessel had a capacity passen
ger list and average cargo. She leaves
on the return tomorrow for California
and will have all the cargo that can
be accommodated as well as a full list
of travelers.

Take a Glass of Salts to Flush
Kidneys if Your Back
Is Aching.
Noted Authority Says Uric Acid
From Bleat Irritates
the Bladder.
Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys In their ef
forts to filter it from the system. Reg
ular eaters of meat must flush the kid
neys occasionally. .You must relieve
them like you relieve your bowels: re
moving all the acids, wastes and polson.4
else you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney legion, sharp pains in the back or
sick headache, dizziness, your stomach
sours, tongue is coated and when the.
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full ofT
sediment: the channels often get irri
tated, obliging you to get up two or
three times during the night.
To neutralize these . Irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad, Snlls
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your kid
neys will then, act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous sail;. J
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and.
has been used for generations to clean
and stimulate sluggish .kidneys and
stop bladder irritation. Jad tSalts is in
expensive: harmless and makes a de
lightful effervescent nthia-watef drink
which millions of men and women take
now and then, thus avoiding serious
kidney and bladder diseases. Adv.
