Nowhere else can the same assortment be found under even four roofs a Smelter Will Soon Be in Opera tion and Camp to Resume Full Former Activity. TI1E SBXDAT OBEGOXUX, POKTLAXD, JULY 34, 1310. NEW ORE ROADS PLANNED Mining Section, Active lp to Time of (ioldflclrt Strike, AVill Again Be Worked Capital Is Inter ested In Development. Within 60 days t is promised that the Northwestern Smeltlnf? & Refining Company's plant at "Sumpter will be in active operation, and within a short time thereafter it is believed that ore will be coming from the old mines of the Baker County district In sufficient quantities to supply the full capacity of the plant. It Is believed that the American Smelting & Refining- Company is behind the activity. In any event Superintendent Fred W. Hcofield is on the ground and has em ployed a force of men to overhaul the machinery and equipment of the smel ter. He yesterday announced his wil lingness Immediately to begin the pur chase of ores. The information of the Intentions of the smelter company to begin again garnering the gold of the district which has practically been abandoned since 1907. was brought to Portland yesterday -by David Wilson, of Spokane. He Is one of the ptqneers of the East ern Oregon gold camp, and Is making preparations to remove his family to Portland, where they will take up their home. "I cannot advise you as to whether the Guggenhelms are behind the plans of Mr. Scofield or not," said Mr. Wil son yesterday. "Hut it is true that the low grade ores of the Sumpter district uretto be worked. Ore For Five Years In Eight. "All preparations and investigations leading up to the actual opening of the smelter have been completed, and I am assured that the only thing which is now to be considered is the delivery of ore to the smelter. Manager Sco tleld Is ready to enter into contracts. "The Investigation which has been made leads to the conclusion that there is enough ore In sight In the old Sump ter district to keep the smelter in operation for five years. It i? the in tention to offer sufficient inducements to the mine owners to have them get it out. "It is believed that the opening of the camp will result in interesting new capital in the transportation prob lem which has- alw: been the chief drawback of the camp. It has cost from 12.50 to $15 a ton to wagon haul the ores from the dumps to the smelter. The men behind the new opening of the' district are planning to .interest capital In the promotion of certain short lines' of railroad covering the district and which will reduce the cost of trans porting the ores from the mine to the smelter. Proposed lines will make Bourne, Cable Cove, Greenhorn and Raid Mountain camps available, and when In operation will be able to de liver enough material to warrant In creasing the capacity of the smelter, which Is now 150 tons a day. Ore Values Are Good. "The average value of the ores of the Sumpter camp exceed the average value of ores treated by the American Smelt ing & Refining Company during the year 1909. The average Sumpter values are approximately $12 a ton. Of course, some of the ores are of high-grade and others will run much less than $12 to the ton, but that is a fair estimate. It Is well known that the average of ores handled by the big smelters is about 311. "When Sumpter was booming about the year 1900 It was a source of much business for Portland, and the fact that it went backward and was finally al most forgotten was due to two reasons. The first was that it was wildcatted by a lot of irresponsible promoters, and the second was the result of the boom in Ooldtleld, Nevada. Along about 1905 a large number of the best Sumpter citizens were lured to Goldfleld by the success of one or two of the first pros pectors, and at one time there was a colony of Baker County men in the neighborhood of Ooldlield numbering 1500. Most of them never returned to Sumpter. At the present time Sumpter is running in a groove, its methods have become fossilised and there is ,( a necessity for some new blood. Speculators to Be Handicapped. "We believe t: at It is going to get "it. Of course we look for speculators land irresponsible promoters to get into the field again, but they will be handi capped by the methods of the sub stantial business men who are operat ing in there at this time. We hope to see a lot of hustlers In the district. The values are there awaiting such men. "That the future of the camp is now fairly well assured is evidenced bv the fact that the Olive Lake Power Com pany has completed Its arrangements to furnish cheap electric power to all portions of the district adjacent to Sumpter. Power can be obtained for operating hoists, drills, fans and all the various appliances necessary to mining. Brown's l'ark HhiuI Plays Today.

JF TEN years ago the first Eilers piano store on the Pacific Coast (at Portland) was established. "The New York Musical Courier" is authority for the statement that more than erne-half ' of the pianos now sold In the Pacific Coast. States are sold through Eilers stores.' From one small store the organiza tion has grown to forty. From sell ing a few hundred pianos In a year it has developed until now the sales are numbered by many thousands. No business could grow to these wonderful proportions without good reason. The ever-increasing patron age of the Eilers piano stores would have been impossible without the thorough confidence of the people, gained by the most progressive, straightforward and liberal treat ment of every patron of . the house. From the day we first opened our business on the Coast until the pres ent time. It has been our aim to make every customer a satisfied customer, for we realize that the best adver tising we can do is to gain the good will and the Influence of our patrons. It has always been our aim to give more value to the piano buyer than amy other dealer could. To accom plish this, we have established a sys tem effecting every possible saving I for the benefit of the customers. SHIPPING IN CARLOAD T'. All of our piano shipments come in carload lots .and this, together with the "harness system," doing away with the use of boxes, introduced by us for piano shipments, has enabled us to save for our patrons many thousands of dollars every year, that otherwise would have gone to the railroads. TACTOEY INSPECTION. There is often a b(g difference in pianos, of the same make and style.. They may not vary in the quality, of the materials used, but in the gen eral workmanship and the tone-quality of the piano. We keep an expe rienced piano man, who understands piano construction, constantly in the Eastern factories, to select the very choicest Instruments. He selects from DOCTORS TO MEET Public Will Be Enlightened on Expert Testimony. NEW METHODS PROPOSED System of Wealing With Criminal In sane Works to Defeat of Justice, Doctors Say, and Better Work Expected. . Insanity as a plea of defense in crim inal prosecutions and expert testimony in criminal and civil proceedings will play an Important part In the next meeting of the Oregon - State Medical Association, which will be in session at the Commercial Club rooms Septem ber 7, 8 and 9. There is a general sen timent in the medical profession that doctors are unjustly criticised for the part they take in Judicial proceedings as experts and they propose at this meeting of the state association to bring out a phase of the subject that will enlighten the public regarding their status as experts by showing up a system and procedure which they as sert works injury to themselves, so ciety and Justice .Itself. Circumstances under which long hy pothetical questions are prepared and asked and which they are required to answer "yes" or "no" will be discussed and dissected as if the whole matter were a clinical subject, and efforts will be made to present the matter of ex pert testimony in an entirely different light from which It is viewed by the general public. Doctors are unanimous In their opin ion that the system of dealing with the criminal Insane and Insane criminals is not In the best interests of society, and they hope to offer a solution of the problem that will bring about a remedial process of dealing with com plicated cases in court in which expert testimony is the exponent feature. Aside from this engrossing subject the association is preparing a pro gramme that will be inviting to the entire medical profession of the Pacific Northwest. Among the surgeons and physicians of National reputation who will read papers and deliver addresses are Er. Reuben Petersen, professor of gynecology, of Ann Arbor University, and Dr. Thomas Coleman, professor of THE DECKER This -make is w 1 dely renowned for its u n s u r passed tone, elas-. tic touch and su-' perlor finish.

Estab lished retail value $500 to $1200. thousands of Instruments, the pianos of the best construction, those most beautifully finished and those having richest and most resonant tones. The ordinary dealer must be content to accept from the factory the pianos shipped him we get our choice of the choicest. A BINDING GTJARAI7TEE. Having selected the choicest pianos of the various factories, we are en abled to give with each instrument sold a binding guarantee' that war rants the instrument against every defect of material or workmanship. We thus assure every purchaser en tire satisfaction or a return of his money. EFFICIENT TTJNTP,B AND REG ULATORS. We have a corps of thoroughly ef ficient tuners and action regulators, every one of whom has had experi ence in Eastern piano factories and who understand the making of a piano in every detail. Every piano shipped from our stores is. first thoroughly tested by these experienced men In our shops. The action Is adjusted so as to meet the - varying climatic conditions In ' which it Is to be' employed, and it is;1 regulated so as to Insure an endur ing, rich, round, lull tone. STERLING NAMES. In selecting the pianos that we represent, special preference has been medicine, of the University of Georgia. Dr. Petersen will read two. papers, one on "Cancer and Its Treatment by Early Operation," and the other "Caesarlal Sec tion," the latter to be illustrated with lantern slides. Dr. Coleman will read a paper on "Pel lagra," a disease prevalent In the South, said to be induced by an excessive diet of corn foodsi and which has perplexed the medical profession far and wide. While the disease is more common in the South, a recent case in Portland is cited, a case has been reported from Seattle and it is said a case now exists at Mc Mlnnviile. Dr. Coleman will also read a paper on "Malaria." Dr. A. M. Pond, of Dubuque, la., will read a paper on "Operative Treatment of Rheumatism." This subject i spe cially interesting to the profession as it is a new idea for the treatment of cases of acute rheumatism. Dr. R. V. Dolby, of Vancouver, B. C win read a paper on "Sub-Diaphramatic Abscesses.' Dr. G. SL Peterkin. of Seattle, and Dr. C. M. Suttner. of Walla Walla, are also on the programme for papers. In add!- tion to these, state and local physicians and surgeons will deliver addresses. As a climax to the proceedings W. W. Cotton, an attorney, will deliver an ad dress on "Expert Testimony," which will give the doctors an opportunity to ex press their views on the- subject and bring the interesting question before the as soclation for action. Dr. E. A. Pierce is president and Dr. William House is secretary of the Oregon State Medical Association. and have charge of the arrangement of the pro gramme. They both reside In Portland. Doctors in British Columbia, Montana, Washington, Idaho and Oregon are in vited to attend the association meeting. NEWPORT ROAD REPAIRED County Judge Accepts Suggestion Made by Automobilists.

EXCEPTIONS ARE NETTLING Man Who Has Been Agitating Boon to People for Twelve Years Says Xew Ruling Is Only Advan tageous to Boatmen. Joseph Buchtel, who started the agita tion for the regulation of the bridge draws 13 years ago and has kept' it up ever since, expressed the opinion yester day that the proposed closing of the draws in the morning will not be of ad vantage to the public. The period of closing is between 6:30 and 8:30 A. M.. with, two intervals of 15 minutes each, and the draws ere subject to opening for sea-going vessels at all times. He con tends that If this regulation is all that is to be given, the 12 yearB of agitation have gone for nothing. "It appears," said Mr. Buchtel, "that only the river men and captains of steamers were consulted, while the hund reds of others who use the bridges were not heard at all. Making the draws sub ject to be opened for all seagoing ves sels defeats the very object of closing the draws, as nobody can calculate on getting across the river with any more degree -of certainty then before the or der was promulgated. One will have to start an hour ahead of time now, as be fore. "Why should the seagoing vessels be given right of way? They can make their times of departure and arrivar to conform to the time the draws ere closed and it is absurd to urge that the tide of the ocean, 150 miles away, can have any effect on them. Breaking up the two hours' time given into intervals simply confuses and destroys what little ad vantage there might be gained. It en tails an endless amount of extra work on the engineers of the bridges and will cause great confusion "When the bridge draws are opened during the 15-m'nute intervals, what is to prevent "a stream- of boats going through the draw that will take up halt an hour? I cannot see why there should be allowed the seagoing vessels the privi lege of passing through the draws at any and all times, when they cut loose from their docks half an houx before the- S3 1 -i-ssgS!

The river men retain 22 hours to run up and down through the draws and the pub--lic gets two hours in the morning and the time Is broken up so that nobody can tell when they can get across. We shall have to continue the fight." A large number of individuals and business firms sent messages to Sen ator Bourne asking for regulation of the bridge draws during the rush hours of the morning and afternoon. Among these are the following: B. S. Josselyn, of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company, Meier & Frank Company. Olds, Wortman & IJIng, Tull & Glbbs. Mayor Simon, John F.
