V " NORTHERN PACIFIC t3 Ett!rv.rM3,(!! 3 if ' IK 3! v , in it i -A r? r f) If i 5 if s Y Ai 3. M. Hannaford, president of the ! Northern Pacific railroad, accompa nied by the heads of the executive departments and traffic departments of the company, is scheduled to ar- I rive in Portland this morning on a trip of inspection over the company lines. James O. Woodworth, vice president, in charge of traffic, is one of the accompanying members of the party, whose visits to the city are always regarded as a sort of home cf.minjr. Curing: federal control Mr. Woodworth was traffic assistant to trie director of the northwestern re gion. At the relinquishment of gov ernment control he became identified with the executive department of the Northern Pacific. The coming of the officials at this time is regarded as of importance in the bearing it may have on the de oisicn of the Great Northern company as to whether or not its trains will continue permanently to enter the JCortbern Pacific terminal yards at the. union station. Cnanse Held Temporary, It is understood tht the return to the use of the depot after changing the service back to the North Bank nation last month, was under a 60 day arrangement during which period the company would determine wheth er to become permanently identified with the union station. When the Northern Pacific Terminal company was formed the Great Northern was not operating trains into Portland, the service coming at a later date, after the ownership of the two north ern lines had passed into control of the Hill interests. When the Spo kane, Portland & Seattle was built, the road owned jointly by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific, 'the North Bank depot was established and became the terminal, of the two roads and also of the Oregon Elec tric, built by the same interests. lltimate Outcome Doubtful. The lack, of larger yard facilities at the Union station was probably one reason why the terminal was not used by all of the lines, but in acquiring land for the North Bank station the holdings are adjacent to those of the terminal company. It is a matter of conjecture as to what will be the ul timate outcome, but it is regarded as probable that arrangements will be made whereby the Union station car. txi used for both the Great Northern and the North Bank line trains, there by making the depot a union station for all of the steam roads operating out of Portland. If this is accomplished, it will prob ably lead to enlargements of trackage facilities at the west end of the depot, io allow the trains of the other lines to have their own tracks for spotting trains at the depot, without further congestion of the train tracks in front of the Union station. The Northern Pacific is one of the principal owners in the terminal com pany, holding 40 per cent of the stock, the same as the Oregon-Washington. It is probable that the appointment of a new manager to succeed Edward Lyons, whose resignation has been tendered, will be announced soon after the visit of the Northern Pacific of ficials. COUNCIL TO VISIT SALEM STtJIT OP CAR FARE FTCLIXG IS EXPECTED TODAY. City Officials and Engineers Confer ATith Public Serv ice Commission. to SALEM, Or., April 4. (Special.) Verification by exhibits and statistics of testimony Introduced at the recent kearings involving the application of the Portland Railway, Light & Power company for an increase in fares on its traction lines, is believed by Fred G. Buchtel, chairman of the Oregon public service commission, to be the purpose here tomorrow of members of the Portland city council. The council will be accompanied to Salem by a staff of engineers and it is expected that the conference will fret under way shortly after 10 o'clock In the absence of any definite infor mation from Mayor Baker or other members of the council as to the ex act nature of the conference, Mr. Buchtel is ot the opinion that it will deal principally with verifying by official records the testimony before the commission. Some time also may be given to a discussion of the recom mendations of the public service com mission with relation to a solution of the street car difficulties, accord ing to Mr. Buchtel. Commissioners H. H. Corey and Fred Williams, who have been hold ing hearings at Redmond and other eastern Oregon points for severa days, are expected to return here arly tomorrow and will be in . tendance at the conference. It was reported here today that Attorney-General Brown may be aske to submit a legal opinion as to wheth er the city of Portland has a right to purchase the rails of the Portland Railway. Light & Power company as recommended by the Public Service commission. City Attorney LaRoch of Portland holds that such a purch would be a violation of the law, but it is understood that this ruling has not satisfied a number of persons a speedy settlement of the railway question. Should a formal request for such an epinion be made to the attorney-gen eral it is not probable that he would be in a position to furnish the infor tnation for a.t least two weeks.

Tork, well-known business man and highly respected citizen of Portland, Me. "I am now sixty-nine years of age, and in all my life I have never run across a medicine that I consider in a class with Tanlac. I have Just fin- shed my fourth bottle and this medi cine has benefited me even beyond my greatest hopes. Besides gaining sixten pounds in weight, I have been built up and strengthened until I feel all of twenty years younger. For the past two years I have been in a miserably run-down condi tion, and was compelled a short time ago to give up all idea of business as I was too weak to look after any tiling. I was nervous, worn-out, had no appetite, and suffered most all the time with indigestion. Some days would eat scarcely anything; in fact I was afraid to eat because 1 knew I would suffer afterward: Sometimes I had such severe cramp ing pains after eating that I would almost die. My nerves were all un strung and the least thing would worry me and I never could get a good nights sound sleep. In fact just lost interest in everything and was greatly discouraged over my con dition. "The ordinary treatment failed to do me any good, and as I had read so many statements from people I know here In Portland who had been bene fited by Tanlac. I decided to give it a trial. ' And now I know for myself what it will do, for I have simply taken a new lease on life. I am now able to look after my work as usual, and never, felt better in my life. am able to eat three hearty meals a day and everything agrees with me perfectly. I eat anything I want and never feel a touch of indigestion, never thought there was a medicln that could do me so much good, and am only too glad to 'have the fact about my case given to the public.
