SALVAGE ATTEMPT
IS IT TO BE MADE
Steamer State of Washington
Is Total Loss.
INSURANCE ONLY FIRE
Cause of Boiler Explosion Not Yet
Definitely Settled Investi
gation Is Planned.
No attempt will be mada to salvage
even the machinery of the steamer
State. of Washington, which was de
stroyed by a boiler explosion Wednes
day afternoon near Astoria, it was
stated yesterday afternoon by Ci-D-tin
J. W. Shaver, one of the owners
upon his return from the scene of the
wreck.
The hul'. of the steamer is partially
sunk and the rest scattered broadcast
over the Columbia river, while the
engines lie in 43 feet of water. The
Stajie of Washington is a total loss, as
her insurance was against fire only
and did not cover the manner in
which she was destroyed.
No adequate explanation of the
cause of the disaster has been re
ceived as yet, although the matter
Mill be thoroughly Investigated by
Captain J. K. Bulger, supervising in
spector in the United States steam
boat inspection service, who is tem
porarily in charge of the local office
of the service.
The steamer State of "Washington
was built in 1899 at Tacoma, and
brought here from Puget Sound in
1913. by K. H. Dodge of the Dodge
Lumber company. During most of
the period of his ownership the vessel
was tied up at Rainier. The Willam
ette & Columbia River Towing com
pany purchased the State of Washlng-
. ton in 1914, and equipped her with a
new boiler the one which burst
Wednesday.
After only six years service, this
boiler should have been almost as
good as new, according to marine ex-
perts. Drake C. O'Reilley purchased
the State of Washington in 1915, and
operated her as a passenger carrier
in the run of the Diamond O line be
tween Portland - and The Dalles.
OReilley sold her to the Shaver in
terests after operating her for about
a year.
The disaster to the steamer State
of Washington is the second such
mishap to befall the Shaver fleet.
The steamer Sarah Dixon was wrecked
In the Columbia river by just such a
boiler explosion in 1913. - Four lives
were lost In this accident. She was
repaired and has been in active serv
ice ever since.
Other river .steamers now operated
by the Shaver Transportation com
pany are the Henderson, Shaver, No
Wopder, Wauna and Cascades. Their
principal function is in moving log
rafts about the river.

Liquor Lobby Apparently Making
Itself Obnoxious to fany San
Francisco Delegates.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 24. (Spe
cial.) With the season for mud
slinging approaching Its height here
as the democratic convention is about
to begin its labors, a new sensation
has been sprung with charges that a
big. strong and well organized "wet"
lobby is keeping discussion centered
on the wet-dry issues at the expense
of all other questions. Along with
this charge it is stated on authorita
tive grounds that Attorney Theodore
Bell, for years a prominent local pol
itician and at present counsel for the
wet interests of this state, has de
clared he will Join the Governor Cox
camp. That the "wet" lobby is mak
ing itself obnoxious to certain dele
gates to the convention is very ap
parent. W. A. Julian, delegate from
Cincinnati, when asked about the
much discussed stand of Cox on the
wet question, declared:
"The big issue before the conven
tion and before the country is not
the wet question. It is' the economic
and reconstruction problems that
must be met. And that's why we
ar annoyed to have this 'wet' rag
hung on us. The supreme court has
passed on this matter and I cannot
see where it is anything like the
issue they try to make of it. The
whole situation seems to be that a
powerful lobby is being maintained
here to keep this wet talk going and
not let it die for a minute. There is
very likely a lot of money being spent
In lobbying and propaganda. These
people have announced they are going
into politics to see that no one -is
elected to public office who is a 'dry
and they are surely trying hard to
secure favors at the hands of this,
convention."

Ratification of Treaty With Safe

SAN FRANCISCO, June 24. James
W. Gerard, former ambassador to
Germany and mentioned as a candi
date for the presidential nomination,
arrived today. Mr. Gerard said he
favored a declaration in the platform
to the effect that before the United
States becomes a member of the
league of nations it request other
members to release any nations under
their dominion that are capable of
self-government. Mr. Gerard said it
would not be necessary to .name such
nations, but it would have the effect
of giving freedom to Ireland.
Mr. Gerard favored immediate
peace and the ratification of the peace
treaty with such reservations as
would not nullify its objects. He ex
pressed the opinion that the senti
ment of the country was in favor of
prohibition and he favored leaving
the subject out of the democratic
platform.

HEROES OF 1 GIVE
PUBLIC THE FACTS
Want Everyone to Know How
Much Good Tanlac Has Done
at Old Soldiers' Home.
So many of the old "vets." out at
the Soldiers' Home in Leavenworth
have been benefited by Tanlac lately
that they decided the, fact ought to
be made public.
, The call for volunteers to report
the matter was quickly answered by
J. F. Johnson and C. H. Ostrander,
each seventy-four years of age. and
David M. Cain, who is now in his
eightieth year.
Their statements, which were re
ceived at the Tanlac offices a few
days ago, all seem to have been
signed with a steady hand and tell in
no uncertain terms of the remarkable j
results inese oia neroes or tne -six-
tics" have obtained from the Master
Medicine.
David M. Cain, Corporal of Com
pany "L," Ward 1, the older of the
trio, says: "I have lived a long time
and have had lots of experience with
medicines, but I have never come
across the equal of Tanlac. It has not
only -rid me of a case of nervous in
digestion of eight years' standing, but
I have actually gained sixteen pounds
in weight by taking it. Before taking
Tanlac I had no appetite and what
little I did eat would sour on my
stomach and I would swell up with
gas until I could hardly breathe. My
heart would palpitate at a terrible
rate and I also had raging headaches,
and often got so Dizzy I could
scarcely stand on my feet. I had
pains all through my body and was
so weak it was difficult for me to
get around at all.
"But Tanlac has done away with
all my miserable feelings and put
me in better shape than I have been
for eight or ten years. I can eat just
anything I want and my appetite is a
caution. And sleep, why, I just sleep
like a log every night, feel good and
strong, and have more energy than I
have had in yeats. I have recom
mended Tanlac to many of my com
rades, who have also taken it with
fine results. It certainly is the right
medicine for old folks.
"At the time I began taking Tan
lac," said J. F. Johnson, "I couldn't
eat or sleep to do much good and just
felt miserable all the time. I suf
fered from Indigestion, dizziness,
pains in try back, and about all my
strength had left me. I had just
about come to the conclusion that I
would never be well again, but I am
now In better physical Bhape than I
have been for a long time. In fact, I
don't think I ever felt much better,
even when I was a young man, than I
do since taking Tanlac." -
C. H. Ostrander says: "I believe I
had about all the miserable feelings
anybody with indigestion can have,
and I was so weak and nervous I
could hardly drag around. I had been
battling with this condition for three
years and -was ready to give up the
fight. But by the help of Tanlac I
am now feeling fine.
"I'd like to tell all the soldiers
everywhere how Tanlac Is helping us
here in Leavenworth."
Tanlac is sold in Portland by the
Owl Drug Store. Adv.

El Riad Bids Farewell in Way to

Sioux Falls, once the mecca of di

of home-owners in South Dakota, said
farewell to Portland last evening with
a street parade that held up traffic
and grew in size as it progressed.
Led by the El Riad temple band
the South Dakotans marched the
streets with a banner which said:
We're coins home
but
We won't forjret
El Riad temple and ladies,
Sioux Falls, S. D.
Former South Dakotans who saw
it joined the throng and before it
had gone many blocks, there were
several hundred in the parade. The
marchers went through the larger
hotels with L. M. Coppens, band
master, directing the concerts and in
between times pulled "stunts" until
a late hour in the morning.
