CIH OFFICIALS PLEASED
COXTICTIOX OF CHINESE GAM
BLERS EXCOCRAGEVG.
Jail Sentences of 30 Bays Expected
to Have Considerable Influence
in Stopping; Alleged Acts.
Recent conviction of Chinese gam
blers and the Imposing of Jail sen
tences is hailed as encouraging by city
officials who are making a strenuous
effort to break up gambling In Port
land among the Celestials. Heretofore
it has been virtually impossible to have
the Chinese jailed when brought before
the circuit court and the small fines
assessed against the Chinese did noth-
ng in the way of stopping the gam
bling which is said o be a nightly
feature of Portland's Chinatown.
Acting Mayor Bigelow has taken a
keen interest in the fight being made
on Chinese gambling and stated yes
terday that with a few more jail sen
tences he was confident a curb would
be placed on gambling.
The cases In which jail sentences of
0 days were given each Chinese con
victed were prosecuted by Deputy City
Attorney Lansing, who handles the
city cases taken from the municipal
court to the circuit court upon appeal.

The house of Bush & Lane enjoys a peculiar distinc
tion in so far as it pertains to the manufacturing of
pianos and player pianos of the highest possible
grade. We have found a great deal of satisfaction
and pride in being able to state in our advertisements
that a second-hand Bush & Lane piano or player
piano is not to be found in the second-hand columns
by other dealers. We have maintained that Bush &
Lane Pianos give lasting satisfaction, that they are
never traded, in the hope of securing something bet
ter, and in view of this we have repeatedly stated
that every piano of every make and style (excepting
the Bush & Lane) is to be found advertised at ridicu
lously low prices by some competitive house: We
have in our possession some 37,000. piano advertise
ments clipped from every conceivable paper from all
over the United States and in which are to be found
pianos of every character offered for sale second
hand and at very low prices. Yet in all these adver
tisements we fail to find a single Bush & Lane Piano"
offered for sale second-hand. Consequently, we state '
Bush & Lane-Pianos give entire and lasting satis
faction. ; . ;." .
In this morning's Oregonian we find our competitor
advertising certain used pianos for sale,";among!
which is listed ,
Bush & Lane Player Piano (Almost New) Lesser Quality, $650
We at first thought our oft repeated assertion was
being challenged, but upon investigation we find that
the player piano in question was an old-style Bush &
Lane, Player No. 33297, containing an old model
player action, and which was sold on August 25, 1914,
to a prominent Portland citizen. We also discovered
that our competitor had actually gone out in the open
market for the purpose of purchasing a Bush & Lane
Player Piano, and which he now offers for sale at
$650 cash. Had this piano been taken in trade as
part payment upon some other piano, which is the
usual and customary way that a dealer has of secur
ing used pianos, we would have felt differently to
ward the matter. But when a dealer purchases one
outright one that is five years old and puts it in his
stock and prices it at $650 cash we cannot but feel
thankful and highly elated that our competitor's con
scious regard and appreciation in securing r in this
way so fine an instrument, and, as a result,-we re
spectfully refer anyone desirous of securing a Bush
& Lane Player Piano of sterling merit (notwith
standing that it is an old model and a discontinued
style) to our worthy competitor. However, we wish to
state that the modern Bush & Lane Cecilian Player
Piano is vastly superior to the old style rubber tube,
wood and leather player action as used in player
pianos five years ago. The Cecilian Player action as
made by us, and embodied in the Bush & Lane Pianos
are of the very latest and most modern construction
possible. We respectfully invite you to inspect these
players before deciding to purchase a player
piano.

Albeit the FmMm
'"pHE business of collecting, preparing and distributing foods so relates to the daily
life of all that it ,has close, personal interest for everybody. Sensation seekers
have long realized this and capitalized on it. " An attack on the packers could
always be relied upon either to draw notice to its instigator or divert too close
investigation of some other question.
Possibly we, are partially to blame for the
lack of understanding which exists in regard
to our business. In the past, knowing that
attacks upon us have been based on tissues of half
truths, adroitly handled innuendo and misinform
ation, we may have forgotten that the public were
not in full possession of the true facts.
Armour and Company have always courted .
proper inquiry into methods and operations. And,
in the past fewyears, because cf so many ex-parte
hearings, we have voluntarily put our case before
tbe public Through publication advertising, we
have met the misleading headlines through which
people get impressions, headlines frequently con
troverted by the text matter under them.
Confident that fair-minded people will re-
spond to complete knowledge, we seek better under
standing with them. Through newpapers, booklets,
moving pictures of our processes and othersimilar
methods, we are explaining the place Armour and
Company occupy in the world of human needs
and the manner in which they fulfill their function.
We are putting our case squarely up to all
parties who are interested to producer, merchant,
consumer and labor and that each may realize
how our obligations to him must combine with
our responsibilities to the other involved, we let all
know the entire story as we tell it to the rest.
We tell consumers what we say to producers
producers what we say to consumers.
When all is said, however, the size of any busi- .
ness dealing competitively in staples must remain
the best evidence of its economic soundness. If our .
methods were not sound, Armour and Company
could not have attained size in proportion to
national -needs. -s
Bearing this thought in mind, you will readily
appreciate that your own self-interest and 1 your
right to fullest value for your money, both urge that
you always ask your dealer for Armour Products.. ,
