in of the board, to be held Friday af
ternoon. It is the intention of Mayor Lane and
the members of the Executive Board to
rush the construction of the Madison
street bridge as rapidly as the unwind
ing of official red tape will permit
There have been numerous delays
nearly all of which have been caused
by the great amount of legal procedure
to be gone through under the charter.
Many months have been spent In this
manner, but it appears that, at last,
something definite will be done.
Sabin Is Only Candidate.
Monday will be a very busy day. as
There Is also an election for school di
rector to be held during the afternoon
In this, none but taxpayers, whose
names appear of record on the county
books, can participate. Herman Wit
tenberg, who retires, will very prob
ably be succeeded by Robert K Sabln.
who is the only avowed candidate for
the place.
At 7:30 o'clock tomorrow evening the
annual school taxpayers' meeting will
ho held In the offices of the
Hoard of Education at the City
Hall. At this meeting there should be
a vote on the tax levy for the district,
but because of the fact that the County
Assessor's books are not yet ready, it
Is probable that the meeting will be ad
journed until a later date.
Monday afternoon the license, liquor
license, ways and means and Judiciary
committees of the City Council will
meet. As this will be the last sessions
of these committees under the present
administration, there will be consider
able business to clear up. Tuesday af
ternoon at 2 o'clock there will be a spe
cial session of the Council street com
mittee, for the purpose of clearing up
the business of that department.
Wednesday morning the City Council
will meet in regular session, and will
probably run all day, with a possible
adjourned meeting Thursday morning.
This will be an historic session. Mayor
Lane will preside for the last time dur
ing his administration as chief execu
tive of the city, and Councilman Rush
light will witness his eclipse as pres
cient of the Council. His successor will
be elected at the following regular
Council meeting, under the Simon re
Klme. Councilman Baker will very
likely be the next member to occupy
that position.
Three After Bennett's Seat.
The Council also has the resignation
if Councilman Bennett, Municipal
Judge-elect, to accept. The vacancy
must also be filled by the Council. Mr.
Bennett has represented the Eighth
"ard for four years. Those mentioned
for the place are K. K. Kubll, Frank
Mottor and W. Y. Masters.
Thursday will be enlivened at the
City Hall by the street committee of
the Kxecutlve Board In special session
nt 2 P. M. At that time there will be
further discussion as to the rights of
Individuals to lay Hassam pavement
without a license from the owners of
the patent, and it Is also probable that
some action will be taken regarding
an alleged attempt to bribe a member
;of the board in relation to the award of
LR contract for a steam roadroller. This
i matter has been called to the atten
! tlon of the committee by Mayor Lane,
' who has announced that he was In
formed that such an attempt was made.
, It is also quite likely that the fire
; committee, which will meet at 4 P. M..
' will appoint some one to the position of
master mechanic in the fire department.
There Is a vacancy, which has not been
; filled because of the difficulty the
, Mayor and the members of the com
; mittee have encountered in selecting a
I person sufficiently capable, as they
have expressed It.
Friday afternoon the regular meeting
of the Executive Board, the last one of
, the Lane administration, will occur. If
the contract for building the new Madison-street
bridge is not awarded prior
to this date it Is probable it will be
let Friday.

A-
The Oregon Postmasters' Association
will hold its annual session In Portland
September 10 and 11. and It is now ex
pected the Postmaster-General, Frank
II. Hitchcock, will attend the gathering.
An invitation was extended him last
April, and at that time he wrote to Sec
retary B. M. Johnson, of Corvallis, ex
pressing a desire to make the Western
trip, but stating he could not give a
definite reply at that time. He suggest-

ence has been carried on bv Mr. John
son with the Washington and Montana
associations.
The dates of the Washington conven
tion have been fixed for September 7
and 8, and Oregon's gathering of post
masters has been arranged to follow
closely thereafter. The Montana dates
have not yet been fixed, but letters re
ceived from the officers of the associa
tion in that state indicate that the Mon
tana convention will be held either a
few days before the Washington meet
ing or a few days after the Oregon
meeting.
As soon as all the details are com
pleted, communication will be opened
with Mr. Hitchcock and strong hopes
are expressed that he will attend all
three gatherings.

An Englishman's View.
PORTLAND, June 19.-(To the Editor.)
As a regular reader of The Oregonian
and an Englishman, I was deeply Inter
ested in the article on the Anglo-German
question by a "Peaceful German." It is
certainly the strongest argument in favor
of England's "big navy policy" that I
have ever read, and that does not appear
to me to have been Mr. F. Fuchs' object
at the start. England'e Justification
could not be more forcibly shown even by
a "jealous Englishman." JOS. SMITH.

drop and the Weather Bureau predicts a

Wednesday. The river will reach Its
highest stage by Tuesday morning and
the top notch will be close to 21.6 feet
The first fall will be slight but after the
first few days the fall will be rapid and
by July 1 the river will be at a normal
stage.

icpori. a arop and while a rise of a foot
was reported from The Dalles, the condi
tion will not affect the general situation
as there is no rise above and the river
will begin to fall at that point today.
At the Cascades the locks have been
closed and navigation between Portland
and The Dalles has been temporarily
suspended. The steamer Bally Gatzert
is making excursion runs to the locks.
The steamer J. N. Teal, of the Open
River fleet, is tied up at Portland. She
is unable to stem the heavy current be
low the locks. The locks will open again
Tuesday.
Freight is piling up on the docks at
Portland for points on the middle and
upper rivers, but the river conditions
prevent the steamboat companies from
handling any cargo. Reports from up
river points jgive rise to the belief that
the locks will open Tuesday. In that case
the Gatzert will run through to The
Dalles but freight for points on the Open
River line will be delayed several days.
The Bailey Gatzert is the only steamer
able to- stem the current in the rapids
at a stage above 27 feet.

FEUD IS GROWING
J. L. Reeder Causes Arrest of
His Relatives.
FOUR PERSONS ACCUSED
Contest of Sauries Island Property
to Get Into Courts Again From
Another Angle and End or
Contest Is Xot in Sight.
Growing: out of tho controversy over
the will of the late Mrs. Katherine
Reeder, who owned a large tract of land
on Sauvies Island at the mouth of the
Willamette River, which resulted in a
family feud, J. L. Reeder, favorite son
of the deceased woman, who is arrayed
against the remainder of the family,
Friday afternoon filed complaint against
three of his relatives and a hired man
in Justice Olson's court. Mrs. Jose
phine Gowdin, a sister, who lives on the
island; Silas Crumbley, of East Yamhill
and Twenty-ninth streets, Portland, a
brother-in-law, and Louis Bronser, a
hired man, were arrested on charges of
trespassing, and J. Abel, an uncle, who
also lives on the island, was arrested on
a charge of making threats against
feeder's life. They were all taken into
custody by Deputy Constable Kiernan
late Friday evening and gave bond for
appearance at a date to be set.
Before her death, the story of the
controversy runs. Mrs. Reeder deeded a
large portion of her land to her son, J.
i-i. Iteeder, the complainant in the pres
ent cases. After her death the seven
other heirs contested his deed, alleging
undue influence in securing them. The
case went to the Oregon Supreme Court
and Reeder's title Wsa declared valid.
Reeder now alleges he has an eighth
interest in the residue along with the
seven other heirs, while they say he is
not entitled to anything by reason of
the previous benevolence of his mother,
which they assert was prejudicial to
their Interests. It is understood this
point is likewise to be contested in
court. . -
The present trouble is a culmination
of the strained relations which have
existed since the mother's death. Reeder
says his sister, brother-in-law and the
hired man were cutting hay on prop
erty which belongs to him. He and his
uncle have been at outs for some time,
and the arrest of the latter Friday grew
out of some words between them.
All the arrested parties insisted on
putting up cash ball, and were anxious
to have the bonds of as large denomina
tion as possible. It was stated yester
day this policy is being pursued on ad
vice of their attorneys, with a view to
filing damage actions against Reeder.
Abel is a pioneer, having come to the
island In 1848.

My principal ailments when I
began using Electro-Vigor were
sciatic rheumatism, stomach
trouble and a terrible soreness
and pain deep in the body just
below the shoulder blades. After
using Electro - Vigor for thirty
days, my rheumatism has entire
ly disappeared. My stomach
trouble is much better and the
bloated condition in my whole
body is entirely overcome."

relieved of."

I have carried no moss-grown theories or methods with me. Others
may cling to theories I prefer truths. I have put thought and study
into all my work that I might ascertain the truth and make my treat
ment scientific. I have felt a personal interest in the welfare of my
patients, and have treated them carefully and conscientiously. I have
studied each case I treated. I have learned the truths that I have
sought, and have made my treatments scientific I attempt to cure only
those cases that I am positively certain that I can cure, and the diseases
that I can cure and do cure are all diseases peculiar to men. I am able
to cure them because of the quantity and quality of my experience.

WEAKNESS
Its Complete Cure Without Tonic.
What is commonly termed functional
weakness is merely a symptom of pros
tatic disorder. To stimulate activity
by the use of powerful tonics Is an
easy matter, but such results are mere
ly temporary drug effects. Most doc
tors treat "weakness" in this manner
because they do not know how to cure
the real cause of the derangement. I
am the only physician employing scien
tific and successful methods. I use no
tonics at all. My treatment Is a local
one entirely, and corrests every abnor
mal condition of that vital center, the
prostate gland. My cures are real
cures and are permanent.
Varicose Veins
Complete Cure Without Surgery.
Under my treatment the most aggra
vated cases of varicose veins are cured.
There is no cuttings no pain, and it is
seldom necessary that the patient be
detained from his occupation. Normal
circulation is at once restored through
Out all the organs, and the natural
processes of waste and repair are again
established. If you are afflicted with
varicose veins, consult me at once. De
lay can but bring on aggravated condi
tions and nervous complications that
will Impair the vital functions and In
volve the general health.
