Ready Sale in the SohUi Amerlcaa Republic In a private letter Just received in Port land, United States Minister "W. P. Locd speaks as follows of the City of Buenos Ayres and Jts business: "Legation of the United States of Amelnca, Buenos Ayree, April 4. I arrived here on the 4th of February, which month corresponds to our Summer month of August, in the midst of a season of unprecedented heat. No weather like it had been experienced s'nee 1S71, when the heat, though as intense, was not io protracted. Nor had thre been any cases of sunstroke since then, but at the time of our arrival the death rata had reached from this cause 150 a day and so continued until the Sth day of February, when a storm came from the south, making the earth lurid and 6&akc with Its lightning and thunder, cooling the atmosphere and restoring normal con ditions of climate. The weather now Is Incomparable, with its clear, blue eky and cool, bracing air. "The city Is larger, finer In appearance, 1 and the center of more business activity than I supposed. Some of Its public works and buildings are Imposing structures, costing many millions of dollars. Some of its private residences are palatial in their design and appointments, and eome of Its business houses higher in dimen sions and solid in construction. "Distributed through the city are nu merous plazas or parks, of varying sizes, full of tropical plants and flowers, kept in excellent condition. The docks and wharves of the city are crowded with steamers and chipping from all parts of the commercial world, displaying the flags of almost every nation except our own. One dock, which Is a masterpiece of workmanship, cost $35,000,003, and along it Is being built a row of brick warehouses for storing goods and merchandise to meet the growing demands of commerce. Every week steamers come from Europe and return loaded with passengers and fast freight. Thrre are Umca when the business movements on certain streets re mind one of Philadelphia or New York City. The products of Argentina are sim ilar to those of our own country, and generally tSiey are shipped to Europe, where they are admitted free of duty and where they are exchanged for man ufactured goods. Necessarily these trans actions require large Importing houses and banks, which reap large rewards. "The English, Germans and Italians among foreign nations do the large part of the business, the English probably the larger part of thlr though the Germans and Italians are pr?sslng them closely in trade. "We do but little business with the Argentine people, our trade being con fined principally to agricultural and elec trical implements, bicycles, typewriters, etc. Our agricultural implements are bought because they are cheaper and much needed for the crops, no other na t'pn being able to equal the United States in the manufacture of these im plements. We ought to do more bus iness with this country. There are so many things that we produce In the man ufactured state which these people need that they could not fa'l to find a good market and ready sale here. This repub lic Is destined to be the leading country in South America, and I believe that our jieople ought not to let tho opportunity pass for cultivating closer business rela tions. The people naturally are well af fected toward us, though there is a grow ing feeling that we are Indifferent about trading with them." MEMORIAL SERVICES.

FUNERAL OF SUSAN BARRY She Had I,Ied in Bishop Morris' Family for 41 Yeurn. The funeral of Mks Susan Barry took place yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock from St. Mark's Church. Bishop Morris and the Rev. J. E. Simpson officiating. The pallbearers were Dr. John M. Brooke, Mr. James Cumming, Dr. J. W. Hill. Maurice McKim. James S. Reed and Custis G. Sutherland. The funeral was largely attended, and the flowers sent by appreciating friends were beautiful. The sudden death of this most estimable woman, at the residence of Bishop Morris, on the morning of May 31. will carry sor row to many hearts throughout Oregon and other parts of this country who had learned to know and love her for her many virtues. Susan Barry came to be a nurse In Bish op Morris' family in Germantown, Phila delphia, in the j ear 1SS9. and when the order came for the bishop to remove to this western shore, she willingly consented to continue with a family to whom she was very valuable and much attached. The bishop's family, with the Misses Rodney. Susan Barry and her sister Ellen, now Mrs. John McNiht. of Newcastle. Wash., landed in Portland on June 2. ISC?. Just 31 years from the day of Miss Barry's burial. Early In the month of September of the came year, the bishop's family with the Misses Rodney, to take charge of the girls school moved into -St. Helen's Hall, taking the faithful and efficient Susan Barry with them, who there earned tha esteem and affection not only of the man agers of the school, but of all with whom she came In connection. She had mental ability of no inferior order, true Christian principles and a sense of duty and faith fulness. In every trust and responsibility committed to her; of the highest charac ter, and with It all a warm and affection ate heart that will make her long remem bered by those with whom her lot was cast. She did her duty In that state of life of which she was called 'with all fidel ity, and it may well be said of her that "she was faithful unto death," while he friends-all feel that she leaves a vacancy that will be hard to fill.

In 1S92 Mr. Chamber lain was elected to fill the important po sition of Attorney-General, and his rec ord while In that office is an open book. No fau'.t has ever been found with any of his official acts, and he retired from office with the good will of the people. Ir respective of party. Mr Chamberlain is conducting an aggressive campaign for the position of District Attorney, and his friends feel confident that lie will be tri umphantly elected at the election to be held tomorrow. A prominent: -attorney, "speaking about tho contest, said: "Mr. Chamberlain has the great advantage of being- In a posi tion to make an aygressive fight- His clean pub Ic record has not been chal lenged, and It "has -not been necessary for him to try to explain away numerous charges or to pJace. the blame for alleged misconduct In office on theUveod of a wicked partner.

FROM RALPH W. HOYT. Attention Called te a Xsaber of Mis statements That Have Appeared. 1b the Public Press. PORTLAND, Or., June 2. To the Edi tor.) I claim as my right an opportunity of replying to various anonymous scrib blers of falsehood who from time to time have used your columns as the receptacle of their brain coinings. In former can vasses I have had only to contend against gentlemen. In this one 1 am opposed by a person so Inexperienced in affairs that he permits, I will in charity assume that he does not Instigate, individuals ashameo, to attach their true names to their scrlb bllngs. to persistently indulge in menda cious statements about me and the offlco which I have filled. I desire to say that the letter signed "A Taxpayer," in last evening's Telegram, Is a specimen of In uendo and mendacity which the writer did well to cloak under a nom de plume. -shall briefly note these falsehoods in his article. I-do not make, as this individual as serts, all my deposits in the bank of which I amvcnshler, nor have I ever dpne so. By far the greater bulk of It has been de posited in four other banks at alL tlmesj none,.however. In the First National Bank of this city, which possibly Is an offense which cries to heaven in the estimation of "A Taxpayer." When this person as serts that it is currently reported that the .County Treasurer receives interest on his deposits at the rate of -3 per cent per annum, he tclls-an -absolute untruth, and insinuates a fact "that only exists In his own corrupt thought. Having pre pared the way by this mendacious state. ment,.hertroceeds by a "if this? be true" to-pose as a Pecksniff and to deliver him self of a moral homily. The matter ot the loss of money to the county by Markle's failure is like the flowers that bloom In th Spring, or about election times. It has nothing to do with tht case. The fault -there was the bank ana its president were unsound; in the present case even "A Taxpayer" dares not to assert that any of the banks now receiv ing deposits of the county money or theii presidents are unsound financially. To do to -would be as false as to say" that Mi-. Corbett's bank was rotten. My bondsmen are Eood, my bo'nd is all rii;ht, approved by proper authority, and the men sign'ng it, and their heirs, executors and admin istrators, are bound by It today to the tame extent as when first delivered. The county authorities are satisfied with It, and since my father's death have nevei required any new" bond, being sure that hli, estate was ample. I desire to say that I trust my standing for honesty and Integrity, business ca pacity and experience Is such that It Rill never be necessary for me to apply to any foreign or domestic guaranty companj or corporation for bonds. My friends, men of character, soul and wealth, stand ready to give "bonds for me to any extent; hence I think that Mr. Brooke may pray, when hjs advocate puts forth such a plea as he does, to be delivered from his friends. In conclusion, may I inquire If the "othct reliable person" who may be chosen as the o"ne to .whom the county funds ought to be turned, over Is not in reality "A Tax. payer" himself ? . RALPH AV. HOYT A CAPABLE MAN. Reanoim Given "Why Grnrec .1. Cam eron "Will He Elected Ma "n I cl iial J n d gr. The Intelligent voters or Portland will l not overlook the office of Municipal Judge on the -1th of June, but w'lll elect a man whose public record and private character are unquestioned, whose honesty. Integ rity, and general business and Tirnfion al experience pre-eminently fit him to administer the duties of the "Municipal Judgeship in an able and conscientious manner. In the person of .Mr. George J. Cameron, the people recognize such a man, his candidacy meets with universal approval. Mr. Cameron'9 record as a Councilman is unimpeachable, one of which any man might well be proud. He has always been alert to the needs of the city, and always guarded her Interests. His admin istration has been satisfactory to the peo ple of his ward, and ot the entirp city. On every proposition before the Council, Mr. Cameron has stood forth unhesitat ingly for a clean, honest and economical city government: his home Is in Port land, and his Interests are here. He has resided here and bullded up a successful professional career. These are the rea sons for Mr. Cameron's popularity; such a record as this Is what has won for him the hearty support of the people and as sure his election. Saved From Drowning: Robert Parrott. t 12-year-old boy, living at 1$S Clay street, was -saved from a wa tery grave yesterday afternoon, at the foot ofMontsomerj" street, by Hugh Mayhcw. a wood' dealer.

Bird, vice-presidem: -of the Milwau kee, delivered an address on "Enforce ment of the Interstate 'Commerce Law." He -brought out many -points which will give railroad men much',0 think of. He contended that to fait In, .'line with good public policy, rates mut be reasonable In aH jrespeots; they jauAW.bot be subject to frequent or violent1 fluctuations; com petition must have jail fflray. He said tho law was so drawn that there is no definite standard of reasonableness cr rela tive reasonableness; that the law is there fore practically inoperative, especially when considered with tfaeiSherman anti trust Act. IndlvidUal'opinipn, he declared. is the only guide, arid is .there are as many opinions as Interests, the result Is manifestly unfair, because there are "many circumstances, 'and conditions which appeal strongly'tp one, interest that ore repudiated by rlva Interests." Vice President Bird held ohat no rates which are subject to frequent oc-xylolent fluctua tions can be reaVonAble.and that the only approximate test of a 'rate Is com parison.

Dr. "Wells' Chances Are Considered Excellent fey Xnaher of "Well Informed People. Quite a number of politicians of various political faiths were collected together on uThlrd street Saturday afternoon dis cussing tho all-absorbing- contest for the Mayoralty. One of .them, who happens to be a Republican of considerable ex perience, was declaiming very earnestly upon the situation. He said: "Unless something extraordinary and practically Impossible . happens, I believe Dr. "Wells will go in by a snug majority. In all my experience I have never seen a candidate's chances improve so wonder fully as his has in the past few daje. Today there has been no sentiment on the street but that Dr. "Wells has a walk over, and while this may stretch it a little, it is certain that his candidacy is growing stronger hourly, and everything indicates that he will undoubtedly be our next Mayor." "Yes," responded an old-time Democrat, "I can see no other outcome. The Dem ocratic party was never better united, and It will vote Eolid for him. Besides this, the support given the Doctor by those opposed to the regular Republican ticket has grown stronger and stronger. Dozens of 'such have told me today that they have decided to support Dr. Wells, and I should not be surprised to see the great majority of them unite upon h!m. The eolid Dem ocratic vote, together with over 1200 reg ular Republicans who have assured the Doctor of their support, and at least 00 of the disaffected Republicans will land the Doctor in the chair with a handsome majority. His vote should not be under 7000 with this splendid support." "Well, gentlemen," said another man. In a sober and thoughtful manner, "Dr. "Wells is the- man this city needs, and should have for its Mayor. He was put up by the Democratic convention as one who to worthy of the vote of every Intel ligent and thoughtful man in this commu nity. If he Is elected -I believe, and my reasons for believing this are based on an intimate acquaintance with the Doctor for the past 20 years, that we will get an administration that will be the source of satisfaction and gratification to the entire city. As I see It, this is an oppor tunity for Portland, and I believe she will make the most of it." PERSONAL MENTION. E. T. Sweeny, of Seattle, Is registered at tho Portland. Judge C. B.

"Will Sell "Be low "Up-toTrn Prices" They Stnrt Store In Sinn Francisco, nnd . Are Reaching: Ont Far nnd "Wide for Business Everj - -ivhere "Wholesale nnd Retail. A number of years ago, our music store was located In the Allsky building, cor ner of Third and Morrison streets. At that time. First street was strewn with music stores from one end to the other, and we built up our Third-street busi ness by advertising extensively In these words. "Below First-street prices." . Today we happen to be the only music store on First street. The others are all gone. They have flown away. We are alone, and the time has come now when we- must advertise extensively '"Below-up-town prices." We propose to make It an object for people to come down to First street to buy their music, their pi anos and organs, for we will sure enough and without fail, sell "below up-town prices." "We fortunately hold title to being the oldest and largest general music house In Portland. Our floor space covers more than all the other music stores combined in the city of Portland. ."We carry more pianos and organs In stock than all the other stores combined. We represent the most celebrated makes, and we also en Joy the distinct advantage of having sev eral different .departments in the conduct of our music, store, and do "not depend upon pianos and organs alone for our profits and to meet expenses. It has been rumored that our store is soon to move to San Francisco. This is a mistake. "We are not going to move our business to 'Frisco, but are going to start another house there and remain In Portland Just as we have heretofore. We do not intend to give up the large vol ume of business we now control In Oregon and the Northwest by any means. We are here to stay permanently. - One important thing we want to impress upon the public, and that is: You will not find high-grade pianos like the Knabe, Sohmer. Hardman. Fischer. Vose and Ludwlg at any of the up-town stores. These makes of pianos are for sale at the First-street music store only, as Is also the old. reliable Estey organ. "We are at 203-211 First street, (main building four floors), and running through from one street to the other.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR PILES Safe nnd Effective In Every Form of This Common nnd Annoy ing Disease. Many people suffer from piles,, because after trying the many lotions, salves and ointments without relief or cure, hae come to the copcluslon that a surgical operation is the only thing left to try, and rather than submit to the shock "and risk to life of an operation prefer to suffer on. Fortunately, thl3 Is no longer neces sary. The Pyramid Pile Cure, a new preparation, cures every form of piles without pain. Inconvenience or detention from business. It is in the form of suppositories, easily applied, absolutely free from Opium, Co ca'nc or any injurious substance whatever, and no matter how severe the pain, gives instant relief, not by deadening the nerves of the parts, but rather by Its healing, soothing effect upon the congested, sensi tive membranes. The Pyramid Pile Cure la the most ef fective, the safest and most extensively sold of any Pile Cure that has ever been placed before the public, and this repu tation has been secured by reason of Its extraordinary merit and the reasonable price at which it is sold, 'all druggists eelllng It at 50 cents per package, and In many cases a single package has been sufficient. " A person takes serious chances in neg lecting a simple case of piles, as the trouble soon becomes deep-seated and chronic, and very frequently develops into fatal, incurable rectal diseases, like fis tula and rectal ulcers.
