and Taquina Bays. Captain George Tyler,
who with others recently purchased the I
gasoline schooner Wilhelmina from !
Charles Thorn, at Xorth Bend, left last
night for Coos Bay on the srteamship
Alliance, to take charge of the vessel..
The Wilhelmina will take a cargo of
coal at Marsh'ield for Taquina, and will
proceed from that port direct to Port
land. She is expected to arrive here
within 10 days.
Captain Tyler and associates purchased
the Wilhelmina for $18,000. She ie prac
tically a now craft, having been built
at North Bend in 1908 for service between
Coos Bay ports and Bandon, on the
Cbqullle River. She measures 95 gross
Md 70 net tons burden and is 80.3 feet
jn length, 21.3 feet beam, and 6.6 feet
depth of hold. She is equipped with
twin gasoline engines and lias a speed
of about 12 knots an hour. For a
time she operated In connection with
the steamship Alliance, between
Marshfleld and Bandon, but recently
has been tied up at North Bend.
Up to the present time there has
been only a desultory water service
between Portland and points on the
Sluslaw. A craft would occasional'
enter thrj, port, but the sailings were
not annc'nced and the shippers not
given time to send out freight. With
the establishment of the regular ser

The Wilhelmina has been fitted for
the accommodation of a limited num

THIS ADVERTISEMENT WAS WRITTEN BY NATHAN A. DOODY
of 996 First Street
AND TELLS WHY ANY PERSON SHOULD
INVEST
OTHELLO
This advertisement was written by one of the contestants in the great Prize Contest which we
have just closed. The tory is one of striking interest and contains many very pointed reasons
. why YOU or anyone else should invest in OTHELLO at this time.
Othello property will increase in value beyond any estimate, we may make. Of this we are
convinced. The keen author of the advertisement which follows shows an intimate knowledge
of the FACTS about Othello, 'and .while we have not communicated with him, we presume that
, Mr. Boody has actually been to Othello and seen for himself just what the advantages of the re
markable young city are.
LOTS EST OTHELLO MAY BE PURCHASED ON EASY TERMS, bringing them within the
reach of any person industrious enough to save a few dollars a month. And when it is considered
that dollars laid aside in a lot at Othello multiply even whih? you are making your payments, it
takes no great stretch of the imagination to see the day when the few dollars invested here NOW
- will mean independence. Read what Mr. Boody says about OTHELLO:
f WHY SHOULD I INVEST IN" OTHELLO 7 BECAUSE OTHELLO OFFERS f
UNPRECEDENTED OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROFITABLE INVESTJENTS AND EMPLOYMENT -GREATER
THAN ANY OTHER YOUNG WESTERN CITY
When Horace Greeley said, "Go West, young man," etc, he realized that this great Western part of our country offered
the most advantageous opportunities for profitable investment and employment, and. time has proven that he was right.
The purchase of realty in or near a rapidly growing city has been the foundation upon which many of the largest fortunes
have been built. ., "
The Vanderbilts, Astors and Goulds of New York. .
The Ladds, Corbetts and Failings of Portland, were the people who profited by the opportu
' nities of yesterday. Othello offers the greatest opportunities to you, to me of today.
IDEAL LOCATION OF OTHELLO, located in the center
of the greatest agricultural section of the State of Washing
ton, on the main line of the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget
Sound Railroad, at the junction of the branch lines leading
north and south.
OTHELLO IS A RAILROAD DIVISIONAL POINT,
where the great Milwaukee R. R. system has erected im
mense machine shops, roundhouses, supply stations, depots,
freight sheds, etc., and where all train crews are changed.
PROLIFIC SOIL OF OTHELLO, which has been pro
nounced by experts and chemists to be of volcanic ash forma
tion, is eminently suited for the raising of fruits, vegetables
and grains.
OTHELLO IS A GREAT MANUFACTURING CENTER.
made so by its superb shipping facilities. Already great in
dustries are in course of construction, and the possibilities
of profitable investments along this line are unlimited.
The Liberal Policy Adopted by the Othello Improvement Co.
A strictly modem and very progressive concern, in offering a part of their extensive holdings in the City of Othello and the
great adjacent fruitgrowing and farming sections at the njost absurdly low prices, will bring hundreds and hundreds of people
to this vicinity, seeking an ideal location for home or farm and the profitable investment of capital.
THIS IS OUR ONE BEST OPPORTUNITY YOU AND I. I AM NOT GOING TO OVERLOOK IT. ARE YOU?

RUSSIA WILL BAR PORTIAS
-Ministry Declines to Recognize Wom
en Lawyer Duma May Act.
' ST. PETERSBURG. March 12. The
Minister of Justice, to whom- was re
ferred the request of the Duma for the
introduction of a law authorizing the
admission to the bar of women law
yers, has declined to do this, finding
that the profession is already over
crowded; that the education of women
In Russia is not on a sufficiently hig-h
plane, and that this question can best
be discussed in connection with the
general subject of broadening the
sphere of female activity, now await
ing demonstration.
The Liberal members of the Duma
will now introduce their own measure,
using the parliamentary right of in
itiating legislation.
The question was brought up by the
recent-appearance of Miss Kleischutz
whom the St. Petersburg Bar Associa
tion had accepted as a member, as at
torney in a criminal case. The prose
cuting attorney refused to proceed
with the case, holding that women
under the Russian law. are not author

supported by the Imperial Senate.
