INTO VANCOUVER
Army Officers Will Take Action
Unless City Moves BadA
r Lands District.
TOO CLOSE TO BARRACKS
Entrances Open Through Govern
ment Property City Council
Dallied Until Commander
Is Forced to Act.
I
VANCOUVER, Wash.. May 4. (Spe
cial.) Inaction on the part of the City
Council of Vancouver to remove a por
tion of the tenderloin "district on Re
serve street, between Fifth street and
the river front. Jias caused an order
to be issued by Colonel Woodbury,
commander of the Department of the
Columbia, directing; Captain J. J. Brad
ley, acting judge-advocate of the de
partment, to close the Fifth-street road,
the only road running eaBt from the
city: also closing Reserve street.
This action comes ac a surprise to
most of the citizens, despite the fact
that the matter has been under con
sideration between the Council and the
army officers for almost two months.
It is in fact due entirely to repeated
promises on the part of the City Coun
cil to lmprov conditions that the mat
ter has been staved off until now.
Will Accept No Compromise.
Captain Bradley, in speaking of the
matter, said:
"We have been negotiating with the
Council about this matter for almost
two months, ever since the time that
the district was established. Its posi
tion is such that the entrances to these
houses are on Government property, a
condition that is not paralelled any
place in the United States. As the mat
ter now stands, we are not in a position
to and do not propose to compromise
ivith the City Council. As the .Govern
ment owns both the Fifth-street road
through the garrison and all of Re
serve street, they have a right to close
the roads as the order directs, and
unless the City Council accedes to our
requests we are in a position to close
these streets.'
Captain Bradley stated further that
any action that was taken by the local
army officials about the proposition of
granting the City of Vancouver con
cessions to the -waterfront below the
railway, grade of the North Bank Rail
road and within the garrison bad! no
connection with the present contro
versy. Close to Officers Homes.
The proposition with the army offl
clals is that directly opposite three
officers' quarters these houses are lo
cated, within 75 to 100 feet. Of course
there are complaints from the officers
who are alloted these quarters, thus
the project arose. This portion of the
city is better suited for this purpose
Than any other if it wer. .not for the
close proximity to these officers quar-
tere. Th- district was set aside some
lime ago by the City Council, and all
inmates of the tenderloin were forced
lo remove there.
To the city Reserve street is of lit
tle importance, though the Fifth-street
road is considered to be more traveled
than any other road In the county.
If this road were closed it would cause
those living east of the garrison to
travel around the garrison a distance
of about 2Vi miles.
Members of the City Council express
themselves as favorable to the request
asked by tite officers, and state that
they are sorry the matter was made
public, as t'ney intended to do what
was right In the matter. They are
Inclined to feel that the action of the
officers in making the matter, one of
public comment was rather hasty,
though they themselves appreciate Lie
Taci that they have been negligent in
the matter.
Some are of the opinion that there
is a legHl question involved when the
matter of closing Fifth street is con
sidered, though it is generally conceded
that the Government has a right to
close any road through its reserves re
gardless of how many years It has been
open and conceded to be public.
HORSE SHOW BIO SUCCESS
Parade at Pendleton Surpasses Ex
pectations of the Promoters.
PENDLETON, Or., May 4. (Special.)
In the presence of thousands of spec
tators, the most successful horse show
ever pulled off in Pendleton was held
here this forenoon under the direction
of the Fair Association. More than
JO0 thoroughbred horses were entered,
and during the hour that the parade
lasted the sidewalks and second-story
windows from one end of Main and
Court streets to the other were filled
with cheering crowds.
The affair was much more of a suc
cess In point of attendance, interest
and the number of entries than had
been dreamed possible by the most
sanguine of the promoters. That it
win De made a semiannual event and
repeated in the Fall that is no doubt.
In the show today there was every
class of horse, from the monster draft
stallions, weighing more than a ton,
to the tiniest Shetland ponies, weigh
ing but a few pounds. The feature
of the parade, however, was the 40
young ladies, mounted on the ftnest
riding horses that are to be found in
this section of the state, which is Justly
famous for this class of horses.
The weather was Ideal, no accidents
hsppened to mar the occasion, and
everything was carried off without a
hitch.

Portland's new and most delightful suburb, situated among full-grown cherry trees and strawberry plants.

, , There is a la w in this state, and it reads like this :
Be It Enacted by the People of the State of Oregon:
' All plats of towns or additions hereafter filed for record in the office of the Recorder or County
Clerk must not bear the name of any other town or addition in the same county, nor. can the same word,
or words, be used in making a name for said town, or addition, except the words town, city, place, court,
addition, or similar words.
There is no need going against the law. It's bad business; besides, it's bad citizenship. So .we
changed our name and kept the law.
Terrace Park that's the new name is the most ideal home spot in Portland just east of Mount
Tabor, and commanding an absolutely unobstructed view from Mount Helen's to Mount Jefferson.
Terrace Park will be formally opened one week, from to
day (May 12). The surveyors haven't quite finished their
work yet; we can't file a map of the tract till they are
through besides, the street-graders will have made a fine
showing before the end of the week, and we want you to
see this magnificent property at its best.
Here is the Proposition Select any number of. . lots you want, and from the prices we make on our
opening day you will have a discount of 10 per cent. " We would like to have half Terrace Park sold be
fore we open and it will be, too, if buyers will but look at Terrace Park before finally deciding.
Our Opening Prices Will Be $300 to $600 On easy installments,
house you want and you may pay for that on payments, like rent.

GRANGE FIRM FOR VARSITY
COLUMBIA COUXTT OPPOSED TO
REFERENDUM MOVE.
Enthusiastlc Meeting at Scappoose
Yesterda jv-Work In Man County
Stoutly Disapproved.
SCAPPOOSE. Or., May 4. (Special.) At
an enthusiastic meeting of Pomona
Grange here today resolutions were adopt
ed expressing disapproval o th move
ment placed on foot by the Linn County
Grange In calling the referendum on the
State Univehsity appropriation. The words
of the resolution follow:
WherMs, The Orange is an organisation
founded for the prpose of promoting the ed
ucational as well as the material and social
interest of the county, and
Whereas, There is an erroneous opinion
abroad that the Orange is fathering the
movement to Invoke the referendum on the
State University appropriation, and
Where, We deem such a course detri
mental to the trn educational interests of
the state and to be founded on a mistaken
idea of economy, therefore, be it
Resolved. That this Pomona Grange of
Columbia Connty does not approve of the
referendum being taken on said university
appropriation, thereby hampering the work
of the university and delaying the progress
another year.
Th Grange upheld the County Court in
securing data as to the value of timber
holdings in Clatsop County and went on
record as opposed to a change of state
text books.
The resolutions follow:
Resolved. That this Pomona Grange, be
lieving in a just and equitable division of
the burden of taxation, and recognizing that
in the past timber lands have not paid their
fair proportion of the taxes, heartily ap
proves the decision of the County Court in
ordering that bids be received for cruising
all the timber taifds of Columbia Coanty.
Resolved. That this Pomona Orange, while
earnestly in favor of the best textbooks
tbst can be procured for our public schools,
is decidedly opposed to any change without
the same is necessary, believing that the
expense of making such change should he
carefully considered before any action' is
taken by the school book commission.
The Grange is enthusiastic over Colum
bia County's exhibit at the State Fair.
In the evening there was a session in
the fifth degree and a large class was
initiated.
