the features of the resolutions adopted by

There were several others, some of
wnicn were mucn more startling.
The farmers In their resolutions make
an emphatic demand for tariff revision
downward. They also declare against the
ship subsidy. They demand local option
by counties and submission of statewide
prohibition to vote of the people of Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho.
Many Reforms Demanded.
The resolutions in full follow:
We. your commltte on resolutions, do re

submission of an amendment to the National
Constitution providing for the election of
United States Sen a torn by direct vote of the
people.
Resolved that under existing conditions the
revision of the tariff upward necess-arily in
volve a revision of the standard of living
downward, and we therefore favor and demand
a lowering of the tariff duties on the necessi
ties of life, in accordance with the pledges
of both of the leading political parties.
Reaolved. that gambling in futures on farm
products disturbs the natural law of supply
and demand, to the injury of both- the pro
ducers and consumer, and we therefore de
mand the enactment of legislation to prohibit
uch gambling in futures.
Resolved, that we are unalterably opposed to
hip subsidies.
Roosevelt Plan Commended.
Remlved, that we believe the report of the
country life commies-ion appointed by Presi
dent Rooaevelt to be the mo,n imtortant docu
ment ever i.ued in behaJf of agriculture, and
we respectfully petition Congress to authorize
the publication of this report as a public docu
ment in sufficient quantity to rupplv every
farmer who may aak for it, and we sincerely
thank the Spokane Chamber of Commerce for
publishing and circulating 500O copies of thia
important document at it own expense, and
all the newjpapers which have favored the
movement. "We commend the appointment by the
Governor of thLs state of a Country Life Com

missions appointed by the Governors of Ore
gon, Idaho and Montana.
Resolved, that the closer the Government
can be brought to t'he people the more economi
cally and efficiently Will ft he ariininLtrri
and we therefore favor the adoption of town
ship organization in all counties where the
population is sufficient to render It practi
cable. Resolved, that we emphatically favor the
good roads movement in this tate, but hold
that the money raided by taxation should be
expended in the Improvement of the roads
radiating from market points to the country
or the benefit of the farmer, rather than on
the construction of trunk lines across the state
for the benefit of automoblllsts. and we there
fore hold that the money paid in taxes by
each road district should be apportioned to
that district. We further recommend to the
farmers and road-builders of the state the
King system of improving the roads.

local option law be amended o as to make the

prevent vessels carrying coal ' for the use of
the Nnvy from taking cargoes of wheat or

a mil oy the next legislature giving tne iov
ernor power to appoint a standing educational
commission, which shall have jurisdiction oer

PARSON HALTS GRAND JURY
300 Indictments Predicted, Quest for
Evidence Useless.
BARTLESV1LLE, Okla., Jan. 22
Because Rev. E. J. Bulgin. an evangel
ist who has been ' holding meetings
here, told his congregation that the
county grand jury, now in session, was
about to return 300 indictments, -the in
auisltorlal bodv mav be dismissed:
Rev. Mr. Bulgin was cited yesterday
to appear before Judge Shea, , of the
District Court, and divulged th source
of his alleged information. He de
clared that J. A. Hayes, art attorney,
had given it out. Mr. Hayes m court
denied this, and the judge announced
that he would adjourn the grand Jury
over to next Monday, and then prob
ably dismiss the body, saying thtre
had been too much comment on its
probable action.
Pev. Mr. Bulgin is well known in the
We.it He has been holding meetings
in Oklahoma for several montns, and
has repeatedly charged local officials

Judge Frank M. Calkin.
ASHLAND, Or., Jan. 22. (Spe
cial.) Frank M. Calkins, recently
appointed to the vacancy caused
by the resignation of H. K.
Hanna, Judge of the Circuit Court
for the First Judicial District,
has been a practicing lawyer
since 1898, the last nine years of
this time in Southern Oregon,
where he has also served as offi
cial court reporter. He will
assume the duties of his new po
sition February 1.
with fostering crime and accepting
hush money from gamblers and boot
leggers. At various places his allega
tions have led to grand Jury investiga
tions, and in some cases to actual
charges being preferred.
Last Summer, at a small town near
Oklahoma City, some one fired a shot
at the evangelist, without effect. Rev.
Mr. Bulgin declared it was the work
of one of the men he had accused.

POSTAGE BILLS BIG
Story of Oregon'lnvolves Large
Outlay for Stamps.
CAMPAIGN IS' VIGOROUS
Advertising Through Regular- Or
- ganizations Includes Distribu
tion of Much Material Xot
v Included in Estimates.
The enormous advertising campaign
that is now being carried on under the
management of the different commercial
bodies of Oregon means a stamp bill of
great proportions. The greater portion
of the advertising matter is distributed
by express and freight and in other
ways, however, and the stamp bill rep
resents only a small percentage of the
amount of printed matter that is finding
its way from Oregon to all parts of the
pnited States, Canada and foreign coun
tries. f"
One million leaflets by the Portland
Commercial Club were distributed by
business interests and individuals of this
city, without a cent of cost for addi
tional postage, as they were enclosed
with communications of various kinds.
When Commercial Clubs arrange for
special editions of newspapers the post
age is included in the price, for all for
warding charges are paid by the paper
itself.
The booklets issued by the commercial
bodies of Portland and 23 or 30 of the
more active organizations of the state
are sent Bast without the cost for post
age by railroads, land companies and
others who have an interest in attract
ing the attention of the tourist and investor.
Still, the correspondence must of ne
cessity pay tribute to the Government,
and the enormous extent of this is shown
in recent- statements by a few of the
organizations of their stamp bills. On
this subject Secretary A. F. Hofer, of
the Salem Board of Trade, said:
'I find that we have expended $1095
with Uncle Sam in postage for letters.
pamphlets, etc. We're getting mfgTity
wise about some things. From the stand
point of economy we have learned many
ways to get the most for our money,
even at the expense of the Government
in fact, we never send out a package
that does not carry all the postage will
bear."
For 1909 the stamp accounts 6f some
of the organizations were:
Portland Commercial Club . .93.1M.62
Salem Board of Trade t.OftS.Ort
Eugene Commercial Club 1,041.00
Portland Cham-ber of Commerce... 7O0.00
Albany Commercial Club . : 54S.72
Aledfora Commercial Club 510.01
When It is understood that 102 organi
zations are embraced in the Oregon De
velopment League and that each of these
bodies receives every inquiry that comes
to the. Portland Commercial Club, and
that a large percentage are answering
every Inquiry, and that something like
20 have salaried officers who devote all
their time to the' work of the organiza
tions, one can get some impression' of
the story of Oregon as it is being told
in all parts of the world.
OREGON STANDS SECOND
EPISCOPAL DIOCESE OF STATE
SHOWS GREAT GROWTH.
TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 22. The
search of a mother for her two boys
since March, 1908, when they were
kidnaped by their father, which con
tinued to Alaska and through Western
Canada, has Just closed and Mrs. Nellie
A. Keegan has returned to this city
with the boys from Victoria, B. C. After
following the trail to Alaska and
losing it. Mrs. Keegan, who secured a
divorce from her husband shortly after
the kidnaping, was forced to return to
Tacoma. A short time ago she took
up the trail in Canada and finally lo
cated the two boys, 5 and 7 years of
age, in a convent three miles from
Duncan, on Vancouver Island. Habeas
corpus proceedings were started in
Canada last Wednesday and the chil
dren ware awarded to the mother. No
trace has been found of the father. He
is said to be in contempt of court in
this county for failing to obey a court
order to produce the children.

Brown and Roy Koener.
Many New Clergymen Come to Local
Field to Aid in Advance tl
Church Work.
MILWAUKEE. Wis.. Jan. 22. (Spec
ial.) The results accomplished by the
Episcopal Church during 1909 were
made known today through "The Liv
ing Church Annual." The diocese of
Oregon stands second on the list of
dioceses for the percentage of growth,
Atlanta coming first. The ratio of in
crease in Oregon in communicants Is
greater than that of the missionary
districts of Olympia, Sacramento, and
the dioceses of California and Los An
geles combined.
, There is a notable iffcrease in the
amount of money raised by Episco
palians in Oregon, both for their own
church work and for missions. The
salaries of the two bishops ' in Wash
ington and Northern California are
paid from New York by the Episcopal
General Board of. Missions, but the
diocese of Oregon pays its bishop's sal
ary of J3000. Of this amount $1500
comes from endowment, and $1500 from
assessment on the parishes and misr
sions. An effort is being made by the
trustees of the endowment fund so to
increase the fund that the burden of
assessment for the support of the
bishop may be removed from the par
ishes and missions.
In an interview regarding this re
port. Bishop Scadding said: "It is with
satisfaction and pleasure that Episco
palians will read of the standing the
diocese of Oregon takes among the
dioceses in the United States. The
news might give us a bad case of meg
alomania were it not for the counter
irritant of the consciousness of the
many things we have not done, of the
many places where we have not grown;
of the many who still have but little
sense of their financial responsibility
for the extension of the ..church.' Let
the good news inspire us to do better
this year."
The bishop attributed the growth to
the hard work of the clergy, and to the
fact that the clerical force had been
increased by the coming of the follow
ing: Rev. H. R. Talbot to St. David's;
Rev. S. M. Dorrance to" Ashland; Rev.
F. B. Bartlett to Grants Pass; Rev.
Sharles W. Baker to Roseburg; Rev.
William Lucas to Medford; Rev. G
Rosenmueller to Astoria; Rev. F. MT
Baum to Corvallis: Miss Caroline P.
Sheffield, of New York, who is doing
deaconess . work in vacant missions;
Rev. R." O. Remington to All Saints',
Portland, and Rev. O. W. Taylor to St.
Johns', Sellwood.
"LOAN FUND DAY" NEAR
WOMEN'S CLUBS WORK HARD
TO ASSURE SUCCESS.
Applications From Worthy Young
AVomen Must Wait Until Treas
ury Is Replenished.
The near approach of Wednesday,
January 26, fixed by vote of the State
Federation of Women's Clubs as "Schol

quests. This committee is composed
of Mrs. S. M. Blumauer, Main 1939:
Mrs. Shannon, Main 6866; and Mrs.
Tifft, Main 9000. The Temple audi
torium Is an ideal place for this kind
of an entertainment, as it is spacious,
beautiful, well ventilated and well
heated. The beautiful parlors adjoin
ing are also at the disposal of the
ladies and the banquet hall above has
been secured, where the programme,
under the auspices of the Forestry
Club, will be presented.
This special feature has been pro
vided for those not caring for cards,
and who still want to do something
toward this philanthropy. The pro
gramme to be presented is asfollows:
"Bedouin Lo3 Sons" 'Schnecker). John
Claire Monteith; readings from James
Whit comb Riley, "Days Gone By," "Down
Around the River." "A Boy's Mother,"

served, all for the fee of 50 cents.
The same fee prevails at the card party.
Home-made candies will be on sale.
There are at 'present four applica
tions for loans from girls wishing to
do special study work along different
lines. " One applicant is a Portland
girl, one is from the Willamette Val
ley, and two are from Eastern Oregon.
None of these can be considered until
the treasury is replenished, and Mrs. F.
Eggert, chairman of the loan fund com
mittee, has sent out an earnest ap
peal to all clubwomen to put forth
a united efTort to make January 26
not only a red-letter day socially, for
clubwomen, but a remunerative one as
well for this utilitarian philanthropy.
LOCAL COMEDIAN BILLED
"Jock" Coleman, Scotch Humorist,
to Appear in Seattle.
. "Jock" CoVeraan, the Scotch humor
ist of Portland, has been engaged pro
fessional to sing at the concert to
be given by the Clan McKenzie, Seat
tle, Wash., the night of February 7.
Coleman is a native of Kirkcudbright,
Scotland; is by trade an ironworker
here, and has appeared with great
success at many . Portland concerts,
where he has made an enviable repu
tation as a funny man. He has a
baritone voice, la both a good story
teller and dancer, and is a clever vio
linist. Coleman is a Scotch humorist after
the Harry Lauder type, and is esti
mated by competent Judges to be one
of the best humorists of his class on
the Pacific Coast. He is quick at light
ning changes of costume, and has quite
an array of tartans, kilts, wigs, etc.,
to help him create amusing character
sketches.
"It is a rare occasion," said a Port
land Scot, yesterday, "when Seattle
calls upon .Portland for musical tal
ent. 'Jock' Coleman Is a case in point."

LIK
Because they are sketched from the
real, actual garments, as they ap
peared when on a lady. No East
ern borrowed commercial" patterns,
these. We manufactured elegant
garments the past Fall. They were
far superior, as every one conced
ed, to any garments ever shown in
Portland. The demand for them was
far greater than we could meet,
owing to obstacles, such as insuffi
cient working room and force.
These conditions have been reme
died, and, grand as our Fall gar
ments were, the lines, make and
style of our Spring garments far
outclass them. It's a ease of ex
perience, progress the result of
painstaking efforts. Now we can
say with confidence, our Spring
garments are perfect in point -of
style, fit, etc. Better fitting gar
ments we nor any one else will lie
able to make. The height of the
art of producing symmetrical, well
balanced garments is embodied in
our Spring line, a few of which we
show herewith. As seasons come
and go, varied changes in point of
style will come and go, but the art
and lines cannot be better "than
shown in our Spring garments.
Don't blame us or think us con
ceited, etc., for we feel that you will recognize these perfection qualities in these garments FOR THRER
REPRESENTATIVES OF THE LARGEST EASTERN MAKERS OF GARMENTS have seen our line of sjar
ments. If we were here to state all they said, you would not believe it. A lump sum of what they said was
this: "Grand." "Elegant." "Equaled by nomine." "New York makes none better." "You don't need to
see my line to see better garments," etc., etc. These compliments were not asked for our garments stood
on their merit. Nor were the good. words bought,for we do not buy a dollar's worth of goods-of any of them.

Vickers Sons & Maxim Keep Plans of
Great Craft as State Secret.
LONDON", Jan. 22. (Special.) Very
little Is known of the airship which
Messrs. Vickers Sons & Maxim are

will be the first airship in the world
to be constructed for naval use alone.
A huge garage is In course of con
struction, and many of the main girders
are in position. While the shed is be
ing constructed on the side of Caven
dish Dock, the parts of the ship are
being got ready in the works.
The vessel is to be of the rigid type,
but nothing is known of the size and
power, and the particulars that have
already appeared are merely guesses.
Special machinery of an interesting
character has been built at Barrow in
order to test the heavy-powered motor
and the different types of propellers. In
order to select the most efficient. The
firm Is seeking to achieve the same
success as it did in the construction
of the submarines, over 60 of which
