B. C Lockwood and Harry Campion ire now in Astoria conferring" with Captain John Reed, of the tag We-llul. n the advisability of buying- or build Big' tugs. The Fearless Is a sister boat to the tug Vvallula and Is exactly the itmi dimensions and was built at the Union Iron Works at the same time. It has been reported that Captain Bray, superintendent of the San Fran tisco tugboat service, would arrive in Portland early this week and would ffer several tugs to the Port of Port land. Captain Gray represents the Merchants' Towboat Company, which recently absorbed the entire tugboat interests of San Francisco. In behalf af the Merchants Company, Captain 3ray will offer to the Portland Commls lion the tugs Hercules, -Dauntless, Go llah and Sea Rover, or any of them. At a recent meeting of the PorU of Portland the offer of General Manager O'Brien, of the O. R. & N. Co, for the isle of the Wallula at $80,000. was re acted. The Wallula was built at San Francisco in 1899 and the original cost was In the vicinity of 165,000, according to local steamship men. The Fearless nas been offered for about one-half the money asked by the O. R. & N. ro., for the Wallula. The Wallula is oi need of new boilers. , With the decline of business for sail ing craft and the Increased demand for team tonnage for transport grain from the Northwest, the services of the tug boat will drop. The question which ronfronts the members of the Port of Portland la whether it would be wise to build tugs for bar service or not. authorities on shipping contend that the sailing vessel will be a thing of the past within five years. In that case large tugs would seldom be of use. TTMERIO CARRIES IXMBER British Steamship Clears 'With First Cargo for February.

The Tymerlc cleared via Astoria uid at that place will take on a few thou sand feet of dressed lumber. From there she will proceed to San FTanoisco and take mail for Australia. The Tymerlc will cross the Paciflo with less than a' full cargo. There was sufficient lumber here to fill her up but the mall contract necessitated her sailing before the lumber could be placed on board. Enough business is in sight for ths present month to break all records for February shipment foreign. At the lowest calculation it will run close to 25.000,000 feet.

In response to an Inquiry today, Prince Ito said: "The question of my return to Corea depends entirely on the decision of my august master, the Emperor of Japan." The failure of Prince Ito to return would be a matter of deep regret to Coreans and foreigners alike, with whom he is extremely popular. His re cent speeches, however, have Indicated that unless there Is an early cessation of sporadlo rioting among the "disaf fected element, composed of a few Co reans who, he asserted, are hindering the progress of the vast majority of the people ot the country, stringent ac tion would be taken by Japan. This is taken to indicate the probability of the annexation of Corea to Japan and Prince Ito's discouragement because of the apparent impossibility of securing tha Independence of Corea by means of friendly guidance and protection, SEEKS EXPERT TESTIMONY Chinese, Arrested as Gambler, Calls White Crab Members.

Xo Lincoln in Gotham. , NEW YORK. Feb. . It would be ex tremely difficult to nurture a man of the Lincoln type in New York today, accord ing to President Woodrow Wilson, of Princeton University. During the course of an address last night before the Alum ni Association of Williams College, Dr. Wilson said: "Abraham Lincoln, If he had been born In New York, would have thought New York, and I want to tell you men who live In this city that if you want another Abraham Lincoln you had better get out your long-distance glasses. I don't mean to say that because a man is born here he cannot become a leader In the event of a great National crisis, but if he does, it will be only by a supreme effort."

LEGAL ACTION IS URGED Transportation Committee of Cham ber of Commerce Wants State Commission to Begin Proceed ings to Secure . Cut. Consideration of tha recent advance In transcontinental freight rates by the railroads has been completed by the Portland Chamber of Commerce trans portation committee and the report has been published. It will be submitted to the Chamber and suitable action taken by the trustees. The transportation committee finds tha rates unjustified and recommends that the Legislature grant the neces sary aid to enable the state Railway Commission to institute proceedings be fore the Interstate Commerce Commis sion sLgalast advanoes . upon natural products. Other recommendations are: That the Chamber of Commerce, through complaint before the Interstate Commerce Commission, or otherwise, take such steps as may be necessary to secure reduction In distributive rates throughout the Northwest from Bastern points; wherever possible, shipments should be routed by water, the great est possible use should be made of the river line to ail points reached by It. The history of the rate advances is given by the transportation committee In its report and the reasons assigned by the railroads for advancing the tar iffs. The committee disputes the need for more revenue by the railroads, de spite the higher cost of operation on all lines over a few years ago. for the committee points to the phenomenal in crease in business and net earnings, as shown In the balance sheets of all the American railroads. Figures are given showing the com parative rates on various commodities, both before and since the Increase on January 1 and the point Is made that rates have been steadily Increased dur ing the past, bringing them up to a fair revenue-returning basis before the latest advance on January 1. The committee earnestly recommends that the commercial interests of this state lend their hearty support to the navigation lines on the Columbia River and to the ocean lines between this port and the East.

(To the Edi tor.) Although but BO years have elapsed since Its admission to the Union, Oregon's statehood relates back to the time of the adoption by the people of Its amended organic law on July 26, 1846, when this Anglo-American consti tution as proclaimed by Secretary Lone; became "the supreme law of the land." During all ,these years the original records and -manuscripts, oomprislng most valuable historical data, have had no safe depository and are now scat tered about the Statehouse, liable to loss by Are, carelessness or theft; and this through no fault of the officers of the state, who have not been provided with the necessary facilities for their pres ervation, the so-called fireproof vaults overflowing with documents pertaining to the business of today. In the con duct of the business of the state, when a public document is no longer of use In the transaction of its current busi ness It is deemed useless, becomes dead matter and is carelessly thrown aside. No heed is given to the fact that the present is rapidly becoming the past; hence many valuable documents are thus lost or destroyed. As an example of the present status of some of the most valuable historical data, the orig inal manuscripts of all documents acted upon. Including Journals of both houses of the Legislature, dating back to 1844, including other valuable state papers dated as early as 1842, are contained In open wooden boxes placed on wooden shelves In the basement of the Capitol. The printed copies of the sessions' laws of Oregon from the beginning are shelved In the office of the Secretary of Btate, and, on account of their bulk, necessarily outside the vault. Other documents. Including much manuscript matter from all the departments, exec utive and administrative, are stored in the attlo of the Statehouse. Some of It in confused heaps unassorted, all of it not only subject to total loss in case of fire, but, by reason of its inflammable nature and possibility of spontaneous combustion, a menace itself to the safety of the Capitol building. In view of the present condition, it is criminal carelessness on the part of this Legislature not to provide a fireproof hall of archives on the Capitol grounds, Is to love children, and no -home 6m be completely happy without them, yet the ordeal through which the expectant mother must pass usually is so full of suffering, danger and fear Mil a.P us fSsE The specialist KNOWS The specialist CURES The specialist goes further and removes the cause.
