which he found In front of the Baker
Theater. The llnvor's family takes milk

the crusade for pure milk. Mayor Simon
Is giving It a good deal of attention, and
gladly gave the use of his oommttt-e-room
to a gathering of puhlle ofTlclals
and others last week for the purpose of
holding a meeting for the discussion of
this Important subject. He presided, ami
later suggested the appointment of a
committee of Ave clt'iens to draft a new
ordinance, so that no Impure milk can
be sold here. This was done, and the
committee is now engaged In this work.
Yesterday morning, the Mayor, before
starting downtown to take up the work
of the day. Inquired at his residence
from which dairy the family milk supply
was obtained, and was Informed that It
was furnished hy the Cottonwood con
cern. As Is his custom, the Mayor walked
down town, stopping for a few moments
at the law offices of Polph. Mallory.
Simon Oearln. After leaving there, he
continued south on Third street, bound
for the City Hall, and accidentally came
across one of the Cottonwood Dairy's
wagons In front of the Pakvr Theater, at
Ttiird and Yamhill streets.
What kind of milk do you sell?- was
the tirst qu ry of the Mayor, as he
stepped up to the wagon and accosted
the surprised driver.
-rure milk." replied the driver, eyeing
his questioner susplrlously.
Mavor Simon then continued to question
the driver regarding the sanitary condi
tions at the Cottonwood Dairy, and was
assured that even-thing Is In good con
dition there. The driver extended the
Mayor 'an Invitation to call and Inspect
the dairy and everything connected with
it. and thla tile Mayor has decided to do.
The driver of the milk wagon did not
know that he was being questioned by
the chief executive of the city, but he
answered all questions politely.
"I am greatly interested In tills crusade
for pure milk." said the Mayor after his
experience, "and shall do .everything In
my power to remedy theibad conditions
that appirently abound. I have taken a
deep interest In it. more particularly
because of the revelations that have been
made by the T'hlted States' officials, who
have said that a large percentage of the
dairy herds are affected with tubercu
losis., and 1 ana determined that this
product shall not be sold here while I
am Mayor. I will do all I can to assist
In this campaign for better milk supply."
The committee that was appointed by
the Mayor has a tentative draft of a pro
posed ordinance, which Is being put to
gether by Assistant City Attorney Grant,
for presentation to the City .Council, at
its next session. It provides for rigid
Inspection of dairy herds, and prohibits
the sale of diseased milk within the city
limits: for a system of license fees and
Inspectors, whose duty It shall be to see
that the cows from which milk is sold
In Portland are free from disease.

A splendid location for PIANO or DEPARTMENT STORE; but would subdivide.
Our wonderful success in this location is the best possible recommendation. But its value as a
tradecente"r is now a hundred per cent ahead of the same site when we opened up, because, just across
East Stark street, we will have one of the very largest and best-patronized furniture stores in the city;
just across Grand avenue the Cook & Leath building contains a quarter block of modern stores, while
another large, new, modern building is soon to be erected on the other intersecting corner of Grand
avenue and East Stark. Moreover; East Stark connects with the Base Line road, making it the direct
country highway. This is to be the business center of theIIast Side, and one of the best locations in
the city. Rents reasonable. Apply at store. .
