The Oregonlan'a Handbook tells all about Portland, the entire Columbia River -watershed and the 1905 World's Fair, commemorative ot the Lewis and Clark expedition to Oregon. The book contains over 150 handsome illustrations, and It Is printed on enameled book paper. It will be mailed to any address in the United States or Canada for 7 cents a copy. Boisb and Thunder Mountain. Colo nel Judson Spofford, a -well-known cap italist of Boise, Idaho, who is spending a lew days at the Portland, is enthusiastic over the prospects of the Thunder Moun tain mining district, and declares that the shortest and best way to reach the region is by way of Boise. Speaking to a representative of The Oregonlan yester day. Colonel Spofford said: "Boise has raised $27,000 for the improvement of the state wagon road, which covers 120 of the ICO miles that separate our city from the mining district, and for the construction of a new road for the remainder of the distance. The route, by way of Boise, Is the natural highway to and from this great mining district, as it Is shorter by many miles, and presents fewer engineer ing obstacles. Our road will be complet ed within a few months, and numerous pack trains will run between Boise and Thunder Mountain. It will be a far bet ter route than the one by -way of "Welser, and all other routes are unnecessarily long. A large force of men Is now at work on the new road, -nhich will be fin ished with all possible dispatch. Last fall when miners wanted to take their stamp mills in the Boise route was the only one on which the packers would bid. "I believe that there will be 50,000 people in this district before September. It may not prove as rich a camp as Crip ple Creek, but I am sure it is more ex tensive." i Tontine Checks Issued. Five million sixty thousand dollars disbursed by the Pacific Mercantile Company. The Incor porators of this company, who were the representatives of the defunct Tontine Savings Association, of Minneapolis, are more than gratified at the results. The patrons of triat defunct association in Oregon, "Washington and British Colum bia are being protected, and General Man ager Olsen reports that the success of the Pacific Mercantile Company Is an as sured fact, and states the volume of business for the first three weeks has Exceeded their anticipation.

Last Monday night they held a meeting. Not enough of them were present to enter Into an agreement. They will try it again tomorrow night. They plan to ad vance the cost of meat orders about 5 cents a plate. They give as a reason the high cost of provisions. "It Isn't doing a thing to us," said one of them last night. "The public should help endure the, grind. Prices of meat, potatoes and chickens are so high up in the air that we have to get up on stepladders to reach them." Pat Your Bicycle Tax.

GREAT INTEREST SHOWN In Renovation of the Fourth-Street FarcmeajL Public attention Is still centered on the repavlhg of Fourth street, now well un der way between Morrison and "Washing ton. "While considerable speculation Is indulged In by spectators as to the sta bility and longevity of wood blocks treat- ed with avenaiius carbollneum, the gen- eral consensus of opinion seems to be that the process Is well worth a trial and Is likely to prove a success. Those who have been abroad and seen the ex cellent results secured by treating wood en paving blocks with the preservative. In foreign cities, are particularly enthu siastic and predict that the problem of installing lasting and sanitary pavements In Portland from cheap native material will he solved by this new departure. Blocks inferior to Oregon fir treated with avenarlus carbollneum and laid on North umberland avenue ,and Charing Cross, London, in 18S4, have stood the wear and tear of travel and climatic influence for eight years without repairs and are still in perfect condition. The same Is true of similar pavements laid on the magnifi cent boulevards of Berlin and other cities for still longer periods The blocks used on Fourth street are thoroughly treated and thereby rendered Impervious to dampness and consequent decay, which has proved so destructive to fir blocks laid In their natural state without protection from the elements. Portland property-owners, rendered sus picious by past failures, did not sanction the use of carbollneum-treated blocks -without due Investigation of the merits of the preservative, and if results ob tained In all quarters of the globe under all sorts of climatic conditions are any criterion, their faith Is not misplaced. 0 WILL BE ELECTED.
