UNITED EFFORT NEEDED E. B. MacNAUGHTON SAYS PORTLAND ' SHOULD RETAIN LEAD. Speaker at Realty Board Luncheon Enphanlzea What Is Being; Done "t By Other Oregon Towns. If Portland is to become a great port, Its citizens must- make up their minds to work unceasingly and untiringly to that end and must make Portland, not Astoria,- or any other Columbia River town, the place where ships load and unload, declared E. B. MacNaughton in an address on "Over the Top for Port land," at the weekly luncheon of the " Portland Realty Board yesterday. Otherwise, he said, Astoria, or the other town that gets the business will be the port and Portland will be nothing. He emphasized also the necessity for working day and night to obtain a revision of the freight rate handicap now imposed against Portland. He cited the case of Spokane as an ex ample of how the determination of a united citizenry obtained a revision of the whole principle on which trans continental freight tariffs were based, simply because they had right on ther side and wouldn't give up. O. G. Rohrer, chairman of the rental committee of the Portland Realty Board, made a report showing how popula tion has increased in the past year from 170 to 216 per cent in various districts, with a corresponding scarcity of houses for rent. He predicted that in a short time there would be no houses for rent and tents would be springing up on vacant lots to house the people. Portland, he said, would experience a good market for residence property with the coming of Spring. Leo Friede was chairman of the day and Frank L. McGuire, president of the board, presided at the luncheon. JUDGE TO LEAVE BENCH E. V. L1TTLEFIELD WILL TEA DER RESIGNATION TO GOVEIINOK. Judge Gantenbein la Expected to Reach Portland Next Friday to Renume Judicial IJutle. Although the announcement of Cir cuit Judge Gantenbein to the effect that he was returning to Portland to resume the bench after an absence of several months in the Army came to him as a complete surprise. Circuit Judge Littlefield yesterday announced that he would tender his resignation next week to Governor Withycombe. in order that Judge Gantenbein might resume his office. A telegram received yesterday by Judge Littlefield from Judge Ganten bein said the latter would arrive in Portland next Friday. Judge Ganten bein wired that he had decided to take a Colonelcy in the United States Re serves rather than accept the commis- sion as Major in the Regular Army. By so doing, he will return to the Circuit Bench until such time as he is called to the colors Judge Littlefield was appointed Cir cult Judge August 29. last, following the resignation oi juage cramenoein. At the time he accepted the appoint ment he did so with the agreement that he would relinquish the office when Judge Gantenbein returned. Judge Littlefield said yesterday that he would wait until the return of Judge Gantenbein before tendering his resig nation to Governor Withycombe, as Judge Gantenbein in his telegram said he wanted to see Judge Littieneid im mediately upon his return to Portlands The telegram from Judge Gantenbein follows: "Under recent ruling Judge Advocate General, had to elect between Major National Army and Colonel of Reserve Corps. After careful consideration, have elected latter. You will remem ber I stated I would do this if it came to a choice. Cannot make too many sacrifices. I shall probably see you Friday." GROSSING LAID IN NIGHT SHERWOOD DISPUTE WITH SOUTH. ER. PACIFIC SETTLED. Unidentified Persons Secretly Act Be fore Application for Injunction Is Made by Road. SHERWOOD, Or., Nov. 2. (Spacial.) When residents of this city awoke this morning and came down town, they were confronted by a new cross ing over the Southern Pacific Railroad on Washington street. This crossing it seems has been agitated between the city and the Southern Pacific since Oc tober, 1913, when the Public Service Commission heard evidence by the city of Sherwood for a crossing on Wash ington street, and granted the request. The citizens on the south side of the track wanted the crossing and some on the north side did not, and as the railroad had sympathizers, it is said they refused to permit the city to con struct the crossing, planning to do it themselves at a cost of $800. On Wednesday the City Recorder re ceived a copy of a notice filed with the: Commission by the Southern Pacific Railway asking that the order of 1913 be rescinded. Some one immediately got busy and enlisted the services of several citizens, obtained crushed rock and gravel and planking and some time last night proceeded to lay the crossing. The Council was not aware of this procedure and was as much surprised as were the populace. The school children now will be able to go to and from school in safety, not having to go around or crawl under the cars. The people are wondering what action the railroad company will take, and if presented to the Public Service Com mission, what their decision will be. since the crossing has been laid before the permanent injunction was re quested.

W. F. Jewett, who Is rejuvenating the milling industry, hopes to have the mill ready for operation by January t, 11S. Sirs. A. M. r,a Follette III. SALEM, Or., Nov. 2. (Special.) Mrs. A. M. LaFollette, wife of Senator A. M. LaFollette, of this county, and 70 years old, was stricken with paralysis in the right side this morning and is reported to be critically ill at the Salem Hospital.

HUGE 'BUILDINGS' PLANNED Main Quarters for Breeding Beef Type Will Be SO by 60 0 Feet and Judging Ring Will 100 by 2 00 feet Be Preparations for the coming Pacific International Livestock Exposition at North Portland, November 19 to 24, are being rushed by the management. At this time those who visit North Port land are surprised at the progress made during the past week in preparing the site. A large tract has been leveled and the tents in which the show will be held are being erected. The tent for the breeding beef types is an immense affair, 50 feet wide and 600 feet long. This will hold four rows "f cattle each row accommodating from 150 to 175 head. Stalls are being built and bedding plr.ced. Connected with this large tent are smaller ones, each of which will hold some 200 head of cattle, all being pre pared in the same manner. The horse tent will have extra ac commodations in the shape of built-in stalls. The hog tent will have specially ar ranged pens, as will also the sheep tent. A large tent. 100 feet by 200 feet, will be used for the judging ring. Here will be fought out some of the most inter esting battles in the livestock world of the show season. One can readiiy imagine the keen competition that will take place in this tent when some of the large Shorthorn classes are to be judged. Some of these classes will con tain as many as 35 to 40 entries and as there are only 12 awards in each class, the rivalry will be keen. At a meeting Thursday at the Cham ber of Commerce new officers of the show were elected to serve until after the coming show. These were: William H. Daughtrey, general manager; Phil Metschan, Jr., treasurer; William H. Crawford, secretary. Other members of the executive com mittee are J. D. Farrell. C. C. Colt. Em ery Olmstead, Henry L. C,bett, L. C Oilman and Julius L. Meier. SPECIAL AIDS ARE PLACED Alblna Engine & Machine Works Safeguards Craft at Night.

A mass meeting of the employes of the Crown-Willamette Paper Company in the Lebanon mill was held in the Chris tian Church last night and they-were addressed by S. Ed.

The business men of Lebanon are making an effort to get the men and the mill officials together and have the men go back to work.

PORTLAND TO CLEAR BASIN Dredge to Dig at Dock, Then Go to St. Johns Elevutor Site to Start on First Slip Law Limits Dredging Activities. Conservation of finances is the mo tive which has prompted the issuance of an order by the Port of Portland Commission for the tug Waliula. in service at the entrance of the Colum bia River, to be steamed here and laid up as soon as the tug Oneonta. which left San Francisco yesterday, reports for duty. The 30-inch dredge Tualatin, newest of the fleet of channel diggers, was also ordered laid up yesterday, and will be towed to the drydock today. The business at the mouth of the Co lumbia is such at present that one tug can care for it. The Oneonta has been used to some extent of late in ocean towing, and her last trip was from Grays Harbor to the Golden Gate witn the hull of the new steamer Claremont. She reached San Francisco Thursday and was reported departing from there at 11 o'clock yesterday morning, being light, so she will be in the river Mon day. It was intended to tie up one of the dredges, as all of the shipyard fills have been made, and as soon as the up per harbor digging ceases the remain ing big task will be dredging in front of the municipal elevator site at St. Johns and making a fill on that prop erty. The dredge Columbia has been ordered from Postoffice Bar to replace the Tualatin above the bridges. The Portland, which is there, will be towed to the drydock next week to dig the dock basin clear, after which she goes to the St. Johns elevator site to start digging the first slip, which will ex tend shoreward 1200 feet and will be 30 feet deep at low water. The slip dredging will be paid for by the Commission of Public Docks on a per diem basis, the Port charging the dock body the actual cost for each 24 hours. The dredging in the channel is not assessed, but the Dock Commission takes care of the shore work expense. The 6 per cent tax limitation law prevents the Port of Portland from ob taining a sufficient amount of funds, in keeping with the unusual demands made during the new shipbuilding ac tivity, to carry on all dredging. Be sides channel operations. extensive shipyard fills have been made, and they could not be taken care of in any other way. ELEVATOK WORK CHANGED Steam Equipment to He Substituted for Teams and Sorapcra. Speed, which is essential at this time in excavating: work at the Bite of the municipal prrain elevator at St. Johns, has resulted in Lyon & Sons. who accepted a contract for grading: there, relinquishing: the task, so the Commission yesterday arranged with Charles J. Cook to take over the work. The lormer contractor depended on horses and scrapers, but as a fill is bcintr made by dredfte from material removed from the channel, it caused seepage that found its way into the excavation and teams were unable to remove the wet earth rapidly. Mr. Cook, it is understood, will use a clamshell grcar, operated by steam, and it is hoped to end the task in short order. The excavation is about one- third finished. In view of higher water in the river being expected soon, the Commission Insisted on the digging being expedited so the earth walls about the foundation of the elevator may be properly protected from any overflow. EMERALD LINERS RUN AGAIN Other Vessels Scheduled to Depart During Next Few Days. Service of the Emerald line, tempo rarily interrupted through the fact the steamer F. A Kilburn struck the Ninth-street dock at Astoria Thursday, and the Breakwater was on drydock at San Francisco for cleaning and paint ing, has again been restored through the Kilburn getting under way once more, and the Breakwater will be floated today, leaving the Golden Gate on schedule tomorrow night, so her next sailing from Portland will be Thursday night. As to the movements of other pas Benger ships, the Wapama l&aves to day, the Willamette Monday and the San Francisco & Portland liner Beaver is scheduled to sail Wednesday. Steam ship agents say there is not such rush for passenger accommodations as was experienced a month ago, though travel continues above normal for the early Fall period. DRIFT IX RIVER IS MENACE Ship Timber and Refuse From Log ging Camps Rile Skippers. Complaint has been made by steam. boat skippers that quantities of ship timber, evidently such as is used for framing material on wooden vessels, also almost continuous streams of waste from logging camps, has been afloat during the past few days in the vicinity of Bachelor Slough and emerg ing from the mouth of Willamette Slough as well. As foggy conditions have been ex perienced on the river so much of the time lately, navigators of steamers maintain that the floating timber and debris constitute a menace to naviga tion. It is presumed that the ship ma terial broke away from a raft, but as to the pieces of trees, partly burned logs and other waste from logging camps, it is asserted the practice is common of permitting that stuff to be It Aids Nature Chamberlain's Cough Remedy relieves the lungs, liquefies the tough mucus and aids in its expectoration, allays the cough and aids Nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition.
