; Owinsr to the vast quantities of
; lumber .available In the Portland dis
trict for construction of ready-made
houses it is probable that the main
'.' office and plant of the Aladdin com
; pany will ultimately be moved to
Portland, according to A. A. Patterson,
: manager of the Portland branch of
' the plant, who, because of his success
in the middle west, was sent here to
' do the pioneer work in establishing
' the concern in the Pacific coast field.
Plans are already going forward
for the rapid development of the plant
; ir North Portland and in addition to
the one unit already constructed two
". others are to be put up this spring.
; It is planned to get the plant ready
'. for operation on a large scale when
the home building wave, expected
next year, hits this district. The three
' units included in the present plan
-will make it possible to turn out 75
houses a week, it is estimated, and
' the disposal of these will mean the
bringing of thousands of dollars to
this city.
- It is already planned to handle the
export business of the company from
-the Portland plant because of its ideal
Z. location on a deep water harbor, Mr.
' Patterson announced.
Z In order to take care of the needs
X -of the present main plant of the com-
- 'Iany at Bay City, Mich., it was found
necessary to ship 200 cars of lumber
from the Pacific coast during the past
." tew months.
" By moving the headquarters here
" and doing a larger part of the man
Z nfacturing work here it is consid
; cred that a saving in freight rates
I could me made. Before any change
; tn headquarters can be made, how
ever, it will be necessary to get the
; local- plant in operation on an ex-
- tensive scale and build up the busi-
cess on the Pacific coast.
One of the ready-made houses
- manufactured by the Portland plant
1 Is at Kast Forty-seventh and Brazee
; Etreets. The buliding, which is now
'- being finished, is to be used as an
exhibition place to show the type of
1 house turned out by the concern. The
m house is a type known as the Alad
Z dinette and is a bungalow with many
of the apartment features and con
Z Teniences.

Recognition of the importance of
Z, Portland as a motion picture distri-
bution and production center has
t- drawn another film enterprise here
J In the Acme Products company, in-
- i corporated in Oregon, which will
Z deal in educational films and man u
" facture one-reel comedies as well as
Z handle equipment for schools and
- churches. G. Allen, a local elec
Z. trical supply man, is president of the
; new corporation, N. Lewis is vice-
- president and A. O. Berg secretary-
treasurer.
"Increased demand for motion pic
Z tures in educational lines is drawing
more and more firms into this field."
said Mr. Allen yesterday, "and we
are the pioneers in Portland. Out of
70 schools in rhfc city but seven have
Z apparatus for showing motion pic-
- tures. in contrast to eastern cities in
Z which practically every school and
; church has a machine. As a factor
Z in education properly chosen films
; are admittedly a phase of modern
teaching that has to be considered.
The Pacific northwest has been back
ward in this respect on account of
the lack of an agency here to fur
; thcr this important adjunct- to the
' motion picture industry."
That platinum jewelry can be made
i in Oregon just as well as in the large
centers of the east and in France is
r demonstrated by a window display of
' the F. Friedlander store, 310 Wash
ington street.
I The display shows an assortment of
- bracelets, rings, bar pins and lavaliers,
no two of which are alike. It is
shown in beautiful hand carved trays
" also of Portland manufacture. The
Jewelry was made in the manufactur
ing establishment of Mr. Friedlander
here.
- - It is declared to be fully as good as
r jewelry turned out by Cartier, the
Z' famous French manufacturer.
As a feature of the campaign to
arouse interest in Portland's Roseway
Z', and encourage general planting of
roses throughout the city, a window
- display contest is to be held Tuesday,
ZZ Wednesday and Thursday of this
week. A number of local decorators
1 have signified their intention of com-
- peting. in this contest and trophies as
jrrizes have been donated by leading
firms of the city. These are now on
display at Jaeger Brothers.
!T Finns who are not participating in
. the contest have been asked to have
- roses in their windows during the
n-fek featuring the campaign slogan.
"Get a slip from your neighbor and
- grow a rose of your own."

'to be held in the armory November
8 to 20, under the auspices of the
Oregon Retail . Merchants association
and carpenters have already been at
work a week building booths and

it will be held open much longer.
Numerous attractions are promised

CLARKE CAMPAIGN ENDS
UKPCBLIC.VXS HOPE TO ELKCT
ENTIRE COCXTY TICKET.
Eight Jor Sheriff, Connnls-sioncr
and School Superintendent
Has Bccji Desperate.
VAXCOUVEU, Wash., Oct. 31.
(Special.) The political parties have
practically closed their campaigns,
and little more work will be done.
This is always a republican county
and they claim this year they- will
elect practically every candidate on
the ticket.
A bitter fight hae developed be
tween George It. Johnson, sheriff
and candidate for a second term on
the republican ticket, and William A.
Thompson, democrat and county game
warden.
There is a third candidate in the
race, but he is little known and will
not attract many votes. It is believed.
The second most interesting fight
is between Wilfred K. Davy, candidate
for commissioner from the third dis
trict, including the city of Vancouver,
and William Paul. The former is on
the farmer-labor ticket, and the latter
is candidate on the republican ticket.
Paul was captain of infantry in
France during .the war.
The third contest is between C.
F. Bennett, county superintendent of
schools, running to succeed himself
on the republican ticket, and Mrs.
Elizabeth Sterling, democrat, who has
taught 1! years in the local schools,
and was formerly county superintend
ent. While there is strong opposition in
these three offices, the republicans
predict they will win. though the
majorities will be small, compared
to the other offices.

SAFE MAJORITY EXPECTED
Members of Oregon Dairymen's

Solid, Says President Katz.
Assurances that the state market
commission act will receive over
whelming . majorities from farming
communities of the state have been
received in Portland at headquarters
of the State Taxpayers' league, from
practically all the leading farmer or
ganizations of Oregon.
A telegram received yesterday from
A. R. Shumway, president of the
farmers' union, expresses belief that
the farmers of eastern Oregon will
give the measure a large majority
and urges support for it from all the
farmers of the state.
"The farmers in all parts of the
state are behind the bill." said C. K.
Spence. master of the state grange,
the largest individual organization
of farmers in the state, yesterday.
"The market bill is certain to ret
large majorities in counties where
the grange is strong," he said, "and
I do not believe organized efforts to
convey the impression that the farm
ers are against the bill which come
from the speculative food interest in
Portland will have the slightest
weight."
People Favor Bill.
"I find people both In the cities
and in the country generally in favor
or the bill." said J. D. Brown, ex
president of the farmers' union. He
said that he . believed the measure
would carry safely.
Walter M. Pierce, president of the

wheat grower and stockrnan of La

terday in answer to the opposition to
the market bill expressed bv Carl
Haberlach of the Tillamook Cream

find any. reason for Haberlaeh's od-

Senator J. A. Westerlund of Med
ford, one of the most ardent sup
porters of the bill and a large fruit
grower, states that the farmers and
the business men of southern Ore
gon are giving' the market bill all
their support and says that a safe
majority can be counted for the bill
in that district.
Dairymen for Measure.
"Members of the Oregon Dairy
men's Co-operative league will vote
in a body for the market bill, in my
cpinion," said Alma D. Katz. pres
ident of that organization. "There are
nearly 2000 members of our organ
ization," he said, "and I believe they
will give the bill 2000 favorable
votes."
"If there is anything we can do to
help the bill you can count on us,"
said U. L. UpBon, general manager of
the Oregon Poultry Producers as
sociation. "Our members are all in
favor of the bill," he said. .
' "I think there will be no doubt
about where the farmers around
Gresham stand on the market bill
when the votes are counted," said
Circuit Judge Stapleton, master of
the local grange at Gresham and an
enthusiastic supporter of the market
bill.
B. J. Stack, formerly secretary of
the state federation of labor, who re
cently returned from. California in"
conection with government work, re
ports that he found co-operative
marketing associations in that state'
flourishing under the supervision of
the state market commission. In con
nection with the proposed market
comTniss-ion here, he said: "I be
lieve that the electorate of Oregon
will consider the merits of the, meas
ure and if they do will give it a sub
stantial majority."
"The women of Oregon should give
their entire support to the state
market commission act," says Mrs
C. B. Simmons, regional director of
the national league of women voters
and ex-president of the Woman's
club of Portland. "I heard only fa
vorable comment for the state marT
ket commission when I was in Cali
fornia last summer and I believe it
would be a great thing for Oregon to
have a similar body," she said. "It
seems to me to be a piece of con
structive legislation that will be of
benefit not only to producers and
consumers, but the prosperity of the
state at large." '

AGENT GOES TO NEW YORK
Gradual Development of Industry
in .Northwest and Increased
Business to Result.
The introduction of the use of Pacific
coast lumber in various industries of
the east, where other and sometimes
poorer grades are now being used is
the object of "a. campaign which has
just been started by the West Coast
Forest Products bureau, an organiza
tion which has .the backing of the
various Drancnes of the lumber in
austry of this section, affiliated
Vnrougti their group associations.
In connection with this campaign
which it is believed will mean the
gradual development of the lumber
industry of the northwest and an in
creased volume of orders from the
east, as soon as the present difficul-
ne invoivea in the rise in railroad
rates can be surmounted, C. J. Hogue
of Seattle, manager of the forest
products bureau, is now en route to
XNew York City.
Wood Industries Surveyed.
A survey of the leading wood-using
industries of the country has been
under way for some time and it was
expected that this survey would be
completed by the time Mr. Hogue ar
rived at New York. With the results
of this survey in his possession, field
men will immediately be sent
throughout that section for the pur
pose of developing any opportunities
shown for the introduction of Pacific
coast woods.
At the present time the production
of southern pine is about double that
of Douglas fir. In ten years the tables
probably will be turned and the fir
production will be twice that of south
ern pine. It is up to Pacific coast
manufacturers, it is declared, to get
this business by intelligent market
extension, otherwise It wHl go to the
manufacturers of substitute materials.
Shopt-Grode Field Sought.
Among many other details of its ac
tivities, the bureau hopes to develop
a market for shop grades in the in
dustrial field, thus increasing the
value of cutting types of material
that are now offered in grades for
which they are not as -valuable.
On his way east Mr. Hogue planned
to stop at .Madison, Wis., for a dis
cussion with J. A. Newlin, who has
charge of timber testing In the
United States forest products labora
tory there. He hoped to get informa
tion there as to the simplest way of
applying the requirements of eastern
markets for tructural timbers to the
Pacific coast grades. He also planned
to stop in Chicago to obtain some field
men for the work of the bureau.
Lumber Visit lixtrndu to January 1.
He expects to remain in the east
until after the first of the year, dur
ing which time bureau work will be
developed and the activities put weil
under way.
Pacific coast lumbermen consider
the market extension work to be car
ried on by the forest products bureau
as one of the most important activi
ties they have entered upon in recent
years. The organization of the bu
reau is declared to be a real forward
step in the distribution of the product
of western mills.
Howard Jayne of this city, secre
tary of the Willapa Lumber com
pany, is chairman of the bureau. En
route east Mr. Hogue stopped off here
to confer with Mr, Jayne.
