THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND, JTJIT 24, - 1910. HARVEST FESTIVAL AROUSES INTEREST .Prospects for a Successful Race Meet and Stock Show Are Bright. PURSES DRAVy HORSEMEN Stakes of $10,000 and $5000, Two of Largest Ever Offered' In North west, Are Features of Meet to Be Held Here in Six Weks. With the opening day of the Harvest festival to be held under the auspices of the Portland Fair and Livestock Associa tion only six weeks away, grenerally In creased interest In the coming event is being manifested throughout the state. Prospects at present loom up most flatter ingly for a successful race meet and tock show. Every detail in connection with the races, livestock exhibition and amuse ment features will be carefully attended to in order that nothing will have been overlooked on the opening day of the show. To make this a. memorable event In the history of fairs and race meets in the Northwest Is the aim of the Portland association, and already indications of success are so bright that the stockhold ers, who have become accustomed to los ing money in the past, are smiling pleas antly at the possibility of having a fine balance returned on the right side of the ledger this year. Fine Stock to Be Shown. To make It a success is the du(y of every citizen of Portland, for this annual show is of vast benefit to the community as well as to the state at large. The stock show feature Is the most commend able part of the Harvest Festival. In this is displayed the finest bred stock raised in Oregon, and the competition for the handsome prizes ottered for the exhibits will be most keen. Stockraislng In Oregon, up to a very few years ago, was almost a neglected Industry, at least as far as blooded stock was concerned. Today the average rancher takes especial pride in having the best strain in his stock, and because of this interest Oregon and the Northwest now have some of the best livestock in the country. This in dustry has been advanced considerably by the holding of state fairs and exposi tions such as that planned for Portland the week beginning September 5. Features of the racing carnival to be held every day of the week are two of the largest purses ever offered in the Northwest $10.GO0 for a pacing race, and I5O00 for a trotting race. These big stakes are advertising Portland and Oregon so extensively among the horsemen of the country that hundreds of letters of in quiry have been received about the races as well as the opportunities for Invest ment in the Northwest. Big Stakes Boom Fair. When it was first proposed to offer a 110.000 stake some of the skeptics thought it ill-advised, but even those who were most rabidly opposed now look upon the offer as one of the biggest booms the fair could have. Looked at from every aspect, success seems assured, and once the show is a success it is certain to con tinue to be such in the future. . The entries listed for these races in clude some of the finest gaited horses in the country, and when next year's lists re opened. Dick Wilson, the veteran driver now here, predicts that the very best horses of the country will be among the entries. Horsemen cannot do any better on the Grand Circuit than they can in the Northwest, according to Wil son. This veteran driver, who has han-' died harness horses for over 20 years, and who raced 15 consecutive years on the Grand Circuit, is delighted with the prospects of the Northwestern circuit, and intends to race his string throughout the circuit.

BOOTBLACK'S WIXMXGS $550 Doctors Ciive Odds on Fight, to Joy of Charles A. Fair. Until the time of the famous physi cal culture convention, which recently came to an untimely end at Reno, Charles A. Fair had two ambitions. One ambition was to be able to use words of magnitude, the other was to win a. pet of money, should one colored physi cal culture expert whip one white physical culture expert. Now Charles has only one ambition, for ambition No. 2 has been satisfied in full. Five hundred and fifty-five dollars is the little sum Charles is ahead oyi the contest, and he is jubilant thereat. He is a pent'eman of color, and for a consideration he kindly consents to massage the coverings of the pedal "ex tremities of those who frequent his headquartert"-the Cornelius Hotel bar ber shop. The particular shop is a great resort f t medical men, and It has been their delight to torment Charles with new and strange words. Some Charles ab sorbs; others he uses with the freedo.n of i Mrs. Malaprop. But just as he uss'l to take a lot of joking about his words, he gave a lot about one Mr. Jeffries' chances. He was taken up, and bets lesnlted. Some were at 10 to 6. others at' 10 to 6H. while,- still others were taken by Charles at 10 .o 5. Charles said he had. Inside Information fiom hiF friend Jack, but the doctors mourn their repleted pocketbooks just the same. And C!. tries chuckles. "You say Jack hal no cfri r.ces.'' he gurgles, as he dis plays a valuable assortment of ivory. "Jack and I know better." DEFI GIVEN TO DEATH AUTO RACER CRASHES IXTO FENCE, BUT WIXS. C. S. Bragg, Amateur Driver, Who Has Defeated Oldfield, Leaves Track but "Wins Race. BRIGHTON BEACH. N, T., July 23. C. S. Bragg, the amateur driver who has defeated Barney Oldfield, won by sheer grit today one of the most daring auto mobile races ever seen in the Brighton Beach meet. In the sixth event, a five-mile race for amateurs only, Bragg, driving his own Fiat, skidded on the turn into the home stretch, going into the fence, dashed through it upon the green, turned on his power when he found he was still on four wheels, broke his way through tho fence to the track again and by a. furious driving sprint regained all of his lost distance and finished first in the phenomenally fast time of 4 minutes 46 1-5 seconds. Ralph de Palma and George Robertson, old-time rivals, fought it out again, the first in a Fiat, the second in a Simplex. De Palma won the ten-mile event hand ily, allowing Robertson to pass him and then putting on more power when it was needed. But in the special match race Robertson took his revenge in two straight heats. The first event, a ten-mile race, had two entrants, both of them being private automobiles. The one driven by. C. B. Derby was declared the winner. Tho time was 13 minutes 35 3-5 seconds. In the second event, at ten miles, there were two entrants, a Cole 30, driven by "Bill" Endicott. and a Patterson, driven by H.

PRICES ARE CUT AS RESULT Port of Portland Will Endeavor to Regain Lost Revenue Independ ents Compete Solely in the Ocean Steamer Trade. Strife between the Port of Portland Commission and the Independent pilots, involving the guiding of vessels from the sea to Astoria and return, which prompted the commission to cut in two Its tariff of $5 a foot on draft and 2 cents a ton on the net register of ves sels, has Incited widespread comment in shipping circles, particularly as it is shown by statistics gathered that the independent cicerones have in a year secured 42 per cent of the business. The Port of Portland took over the bar pilotage and river towing about a year ago. when some of the men who had labored with the coterie known as the Oregon bar pilots, were given berths with the commission. Others were not employed and since then there has been a decidedly keen competition for the bar revenue. For a time there were four independent pilots, but now the list includes Pilots Swanson, Ander son and "Woods. Rebates Given, It Is Charged. Data covering the vessels secured by the independents is based, so far as the probable revenue is concerned, on the assumption that they have charged for their services in keeping with the tariff of the Port of Portland. Execu tives of the commission assert, how ever, that they have been informed that the independents have maintained rates at least 25 per cent below those of the Port of Portland, and, in some in stances, have rebated even more to masters of vessels. But they admit there is nothing definite on which to base that assertion, further than the admission of certain masters that their business had been solicited by the in dependents with promises of conces sions. The situation at the mouth of the river is such that the independent marine guides can compete with the Port of Portland solely in the steamer trade. Sailing vessels must be given towage and the Port of Portland has steamers and other facilities for that work which the independents lack. Differential Is Absorbed. On the other hand grain vessels, while being charged pilotage from the sea to Astoria and return, do not in reality pay it, for that part of their ex penses is absorbed, as in -the days when the O. R. & N. pursued the same tactics in order to relieve the port of a dif ferential as compared with Puget Sound, where the charges were, lower. It was estimated that the differential amounted to approximately 35 cents a ton on grain. In dividing its pilotage tariff the Port of Portland has not eliminated the differ ential on general business, for with ves sels coming to Portland that must pay towage in the river, and steamers that take pilots over the same course, there exists a higher combination than on Pu get Sound or at San Francisco. At the same time there is now effective the low est rate in the history of the Columbia River, based on the tariff as amended, and If the Independents are cutting be low that, their plan of operation gives the port a double rate. Competition Has Been Keen. In order to secure business the inde pendents have, in several instances, trav eled to San Francisco, Puget Sound and British Columbia, which increased their disbursements, but, on the other hdnd. they hve no equipment to. maintain, which is beneficial in one way but detri mental in another, for It precludes them from regularly meeting vessels off the river when no previous arrangement has been made to meet them at a Coast harbor. In some cases the independents brought steamers into the river and the regular pilots brought them to this harbor, but any moves necessary here were per formed by the river pilots, assisted by towboats of the Port of Portland, and often the Commission's- pilots guided the craft over the bar on their return to sea. In either event the Commission reaps a small revenue from the harbor moves, which average $25 each. Xo Competition on Liners. There is no competition with the steam ers of the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company, because the Port of- Portland secures that revenue on a provision of the tariff through which a reduction of 25 per cent is allowed when 12 or more steamers are operated out of the river each year. Any other line is privileged to take advantage of the same conces sion. The Independent pilots handled 23 ves sels during the year, not including the Norwegian tramp Titania, ..which arrived up Thursday, and their revenue, com puted from the ruling tariff, was $5112.52, in piloting the following craft:' Tone Ntt Date Vessel.

Burning' of Exposition Building Clears Way to Transfer of . Property at .Nineteenth. Valuations on upper "Washington street reached a new high mark yes terday through the sale to T. N. Stop penbach, Hugh McGulre and Mrs. P. A. Dekum of two lots and a fraction at the northwest corner of Nineteenth and Washington streets. The property, bought from the Couch estate, brought $100,000. It fronts 130 feet on WastiT ington street and 100 feet on Nine teenth street. This price of $770 a front foot is the highest ever paid for unimproved prop erty west of Sixteenth on "Washington street. It is directly across Washing ton street from the Exposition build ing and the recent fire has, it is be lieved, added much to the valuation of the property. Before the fire the prop erty could not be sold at the present figure owing, to the menace from the great frame barn. The corner has no improvements. It is a low piece of ground which has been used as a florist's garden. It is a part of the original Couch donation land claim, and has never been trans ferred since first taken, up. The new owners bought the corner purely for speculative purposes. The sale was ne gotiated through the agency of Keasey, Uimason & Jeffery. THIEF TAKES LINGERIE UNFEELING MISCREANT STEALS THINGS FROM DOCK. After Sampling Canned Goods and Trying Bedspring, Burglar Ap propriates Other Articles. Detectives are seeking a hardhearted thief .who is thought to have in his possession certain dainty articles of lin gerie, natty sash curtains, household linen and other small comforts of home, done up in a neat package ready for shipment, that mysteriously disappeared early yesterday morning from the Couch street dock. Traces found of the sup posed thief's operations stamp him as a most unfeeling and peculiar purloiner. Piled high in the dark interior of the dock were cases of choice canned fruits. Those the miscreant sampled, apparent ly to his full satisfaction. Having ap peased his hunger he cast about for a better resting place than the hard deck afforded, and that his quest is success ful is evidenced 'by the fact that an ex tensive bedspring was found pulled from a pile and arranged to give the intruder the most comfort. Before leavng he dis covered the package of goods, minutely inspected the contents and appropriated most of them. Meanwhile the operators of the steamer Beaver are endeavoring to make up the shortage of canned goods: the owner of the bedspring declares Its value im paired and a woman at Oak Point is ex pectantly awaiting the receipt of $5.23 worth of department store oddities with which to add further comfort to her cozy cottage.
