TOURIST CAMPAIGN
Northwest Officials Confer
With State Directors Over
Problems to -Be Faced.
WORK BEGINS NEXT YEAR
Victoria Mayor Says Business In
Canada Goes On as Usual in
Spite of Two Years of War
and Advises Same Step.
- Officials pf the Pacific Northwest
Tourist Association came to Portland
yesterday to discuss plans with the
Oregon directors. They arrived from
British Columbia and Washington in
the morning and returned home last
night after a conference with Secre
tary of State Olcott at Salem yester
day.
In the visiting party were A. E. Todd
Mayor of Victoria and president of the
association, and Captain I. M. Howell,
f Olympla. Secretary of State of
"VVashlnKton.
- Representatives of these two North
west districts that have Joined hands
with Oregon in the exploitation of the
North Pacific Coast were enthusiastic
over the success of the project to wort
together for the whole Pacific Coast
section.
Canada Keep Business Going.
"Although Canada has been involved
In war for two years and more, busi
ness is going on about as usual," said
Mayor Todd. "Our railroads are in
splendid condition, the highways are
well kept and attractive, tourists are
traveling and the hotels are crowded.
I see no reason why the states of Ore
ron and Washington should hesitate
in going after tourist business with
all the vigor at their command.
"I see that Secretary Lane is going
to keep the National parks open dur
tnF the war period so that the. Ameri
can people may get out and enjoy the
out-of-door life that makes vigorous
and healthy citizens.
"This is the first time that three
tatea have gotten together on a tour
1st proposiion of this nature, and when
you take into consideration the fact
that our corner of the triangle is a
foreign country, it may be considered
remarkable. It is so notaoie an
achievement that it is attracting at
tention from many parts of the Ameri
can continent.
Portland Gets Contracts.
"British Columbia attaches so much
Importance to this project that it has
named its Premier, Hon. H. C. Brewster,
on the board of directors of the Pa
cific Northwest Tourist Association,
and he would have attended our ses
sion at Salem had not an important
conference kept him away.
"Oregon's directors are evidently
wide awake and on the Job all the
time, because I note that Portland has
the treasurer of the board, J. C. Ains
worth, and the United States National
Bank is the depository for funds. Be
sides that, the official auditors are
Whitfield. Whitcomb & Co., and the
first booklet, to the number of 60.000
copies, is to be printed by a Portland
firm and a Portland advertising firm
will handle, the advertising for the as
sociation. : "
"I also consider Mr. Woodruff one
of the most able publicity men of the
Pacific Northwest, and I proposed his
selection as commissioner in charge of
the Chicago office of the organization."
Phil Metscban Entertains.
A breakfast was given by Phil Mets-
chan, Jr.. one of the directors, at the
Imperial Hotel yesterday morning upon
the arrival of the visitors from the
north. Present were I. M. Howell. Sec
retary of State of Washington; Mayor
A. E. Todd, president of the associa
tion, of Vancouver: J. C. Ainsworth.
Rmcrv Olmstead. J. P. Jaeger. Phil
Metschan, Jr., W. J. Hofmann and Mark
Woodruff.
The visitors, accompanied by W. J.
Wnfmnnn and Phil Metschan. Jr went
to Salem and a conference was held
with Ben Olcott. Secretary, of State, as
to the disposition of the state funds,
It was agreed at this "conference that
funds would be checked out upon the
nroDer vouchers. Expenditures as out
lined yesterday will not be made until
arrangements now under way are com
pleted that will provide for overhead
expenditures.
Campaign Starts Next Year.
No big advertising appropriation will
be made for this year's business, as it
is believed to be too late in the season.
Plans will be begun for next year,
when a big harvest of tourists as the
results of the Pacific Northwest's
united efforts is expected.
A Western office will be opened and
data for the booklet gathered and all
the advertising matter prepared. On
the board of directors for Oregon are
Ben W. Olcott, Salem; W. J. Hofmann

The CuiFtaiii of
Disease
Like the bullet-woven "curtain of fire" that shrouds
the European trenches is the curtain of disease spread
ing its grappling folds in peaceful homes. It is made, not
of shrieking bullets, but of silent, invisible, malignant
disease germs, more numerous than fragments of burst
ing shrapnel. . Each germ is capable of racking its victim
with torturing disease.
That curtain of disease exists in many homes which
are just oap-and-water clean. The germs breed by the
millions in sinks, drain-pipes, garbage cans, toilets, and
damp woodwork.
Sweeping with a broom, the romping of children, the
swish of passing skirts, stir up the germs from their
lurking places. They fill the air, are breathed into nos
trils and mouths. Disease follows. It may be grippe,
diphtheria, scarlet fever, tuberculosis, or any of the many
contagious diseases.

Disinfectant
This preparation kills all germs. A small bottle (25c)
makes two gallons of real disinfectant. A 50c bottle
makes five gallons. Such a solution will cleanse all drains
or sinks. Dampen the sweeping broom with it. Use it
in washing window-sills and all dark corners. Then your
home will be gefm-free, a safe place for the whole family.
Lysol Toilet Soap Lysol Shaving Cream
Lysol Toilet Soap contains
Lysol, and therefore protects the
skin from germ infection. It is
refreshingly soothing and healing
and helpful for improving the
skin. Ask your dealer. If he
has none, ask him to order it
for .you.
Lysol Shaving Cream also con
tains Lysol, and kills germs on
razor and shaving-brush (where
germs abound), guards the tiny
cuts from infection, and gives
the antiseptic shave. If youjr
dealer has none, ask him to order
a supply for you.

The arrest and conviction of Walpole
puts a stop to the operations of one of
the citys most daring bootleggers, de
clare the county officials. His place
at 102 Twelfth street is known as the
"Mad House," according to the Deputy
Sheriffs, and as a rendezvous for boot
leggers and those seeking to purchase
booze. Only a small quantity of liquor
was found at the place when it was
raided.
Walpole was prosecuted by Deputy
District Attorney Pierce.

143 Sixth (opp. Meier Prlik)
An Indication of the extremes to
which City Commissioner Daly has
gone to force installation of water me
ters since the peopie voted againpt
them overwhelmingly at the last city
election, is seen in a recent contro
versy between Mr. Daly and the Port
of Portland regarding metering water
service at the public drydock at St.
Johns.
in August, isi6, tne trouble was
started when a letter was written to
the Port of Portland demanding that
a meter "of approved pattern" be placed
on tne drydock service to measure
water used in washing the sides of
ships, running boilers and other ma
chinery and used for other purposes in
connection with the public plant.
The Port of Portland Commissioners
were not lmrressed with the idea of
making a large expenditure for a meter
and wrote a letter to Mr. Daly, in
which they said under date of Septem
ber-1. 1916: "It is not entirely clear why
the taxpayers of Portland, represented
by the Port of Portland, should spend
their money for a water meter they
neither need nor desire.
"Your inspection division will find
on investigation that no water has
been or is being wasted at iue dry
dock. The payment of any money to
the Water Department by the Port of
Portland for water or for service actu
ally needed and performed would meet
with no objection, as it is simply tak
ing money from one of the pockets of
the taxpayers and placing it in another
pocket of he same taxpayers. The ex
penditure of money for meters is a
different matter."
The Port of Portland Commission re
fused flatly to spend the money for
the meter and apparently the question
was ended. At least It was ended as
far as the Port of Portland was con
cerned. The Water Bureau, however.
went out on February 28 and installed
a water meter on the drydock. The
meter was purchased at a cost of 160,
which figure does not include the cost
of installation.

RISE ALLEGED ILLEGAL
Brief Filed Over Squaw Creek Irri
gation Company Case.
SALEM, Or.. May 81. (Special.) In
a brief filed with the Public Service
Commission today by Vernon Forbes
and H. H. DeArmond against granting
an increase of rates to the Squaw
Creek Irrigation Company, the conten
tion is set up that the water of the
company belongs to the state, and that
the state, in granting water rights,
does not appropriate the water, but
merely the use of the water.
It also is contended that the water,
being appurtenant to the land, the
company when it sells the land sells
the right to the use of the water, and
that its attempt to Impose an in
creased rate is unlawful.
Arrest and Conviction, County Officials
Declare, Pat Stop to Operations
of Moat Daring Bootlegger.
A Jury of Portland business men yes
terday placed their stamp of disap
or.oval on bootlegging operations in a
most emphatic manner. They heard
the testimony against Frank Walpole,
returned a verdict of guilty, fixed the
punishment at 30 days in jail and a
fine of S100, which were immediately
imposed by Judge Bell.
The jurors were O. C. Bortzmeyer,
former banker; C. E. Haak, timber
man; George W. Collins, broker; W. A.
Barnes, real estate; J. W. Ganong,
manufacturer; J. V. Swan, commission
merchant.
The evidence against Walpole was
complete except for the poor memory
of Walter Mussen. who admitted buy
ing liquor at the time and place
claimed by the state, but who said he
couldn't be quite sure in his identifi
cation of Walpole. It was shown,
however, that Walpole had sought to
secure Mussen s release rrora tne (joun-
