It is pro posed to take over the business of the Northwestern Fruit Exchange, which has Its headquarters here. The ex change. In the past two years, has per fected Its selling system until It now l:as an outlet in all the markets, large nd small, in the United States and good prospects for doing business in foreign countries.

I think as soon aa It Is explained to the stockholders of the four big unions they will approve of it. It is the best thing that could hap pen for the fruit Industry of the North, west, and particularly for the apple growers of Hood River. Rome River. Wenatehee and Taklma. The North western Fruit Exchange has a mag nificent system of selling, and is in tiy hands ot man of exceptional abil ity.

MUCH NEW WORK IS DONE Protection Against Undue Wear of Macadam Highways Suggested by Superintendent Chapman. Travel Studies Made. Multnomah County expended In the several road districts the sum of $225, 357.78 In 1911. says the annual report of H. B. Chapman, road superintendent, which was filed yesterday with the County Court. "We have expended as little money as possible on unimproved roads, tal have concentrated our ef forts unon macadam work on the main I arteries of travel," continued the re import. "The county haa between 600 I and 600 miles of roads, $0 per cent of which have been graded, but much Is yet to be doTie in the way of widening and reducing grades." Mr. Chapman declares that the St. Helens road, when completed, will be the finest drive In the state. Much improvement work was done on It In 111. More than 24 miles of new mac adam was constructed during the year, he says, and ten miles resurfaced: 900 feet of old bridges have been replaced with solid fills, thereby doing away with further expense, and the Cornell road has been widened to It feet and macadamized. "The rapid growth of the City of Portland has thrown upon the great thoroughfares leading to the city a very heavy traffic The Powell Valley road carries over 1000 vehicles a day on the average. The travel on the Base Line road was counted on a Sat urday and Sunday last Fall 'and there were 700 autos alone whloh passed over the road in the space of ten hours each day. No count waa kept of the wagon travel." - Superintendent Chapman recommends the replacing of the 300-foot span bridge across the Sandy River at Troutdale with a steel span, resting on concrete piers, the present bridge having reached the age limit. The county road now owns six rock quar- riea ana ten grsvei pits, ana ne asas ror tnree more quarries. 10 reauce the damaging effects of automobile travel on macadam, he recommends heavy blanket treatment with aaphaltic oil. declaring that that method has produced good results In many Eastern slates. "The county now has 150 miles of macadam roads, approximately to miles of which are within the limits of the City of Portland. There are 75 miles of gravel roada" JUSTICE WARNS MOTHER Woman Is Angry When Son 1 Re buked for Escapades. Fixed opinion of a mother that her boy could be guilty of no wrong caused a lively scene between the woman and Justice Olson In court yesterday, when S. J. Hubbard, a contractor, living at 1281 East Salmon street, was on his defense on a charge of chaining a boy In his cellar. When Justice Olson turned the tables and administered a stern lecture to- Walter Hutchinson, 10 years old, and the complainant In the case, his mother became lndlgant and an-, nounced that she would carry the case to Judge Gatens. "Do so, madame, aa quickly as you can," replied Olson; "but I must tell you that, unwittingly perhaps, you are doing your boy a mischief and that some day he will be beyond your con trol In consequence." The Hutchinson boy was one of a gang against whom Hubbard had made frequent complaints of vandalism. The police told him to give them a scare, and on that advice he caught Walter Hutchinson and locked him in his basement. He was reclaimed by his mother and told a tale of tortures in flicted on him while a prisoner. His tale was shattered on closer question ing and the District Attorney moved for a dismissal. another 3200,000 In order to buy a site. In my opinion it Is about time to stop the bonding of the city for every old thing that someone takes a fancy to. 7 Interest works day and night, and has : to be paid by the people directly and ; Indirectly by all citizens. I would therefore suggest that If we cannot build an auditorium with what the peo ple voted for, namely 3600,000, that the matter be dropped and no more bonds be Issued for that purpose. I About placing the auditorium on the East Side. That Is a mistake. Not ' withstanding that I am a resident of the East Side, and have large interests ; there, I am opposed to it for the rea i son that it would prove a failure. An I auditorium, to be successful, must be 1 located aa near the center of trans ! portatlon of passengers as possible. It must be In a location where It can be ' reached from all directions of the city by streetcars without having to trans fer from one to another. When cars are Jammed full It is hard to transfer, i The West Side people would all have to transfer from one car to another, and so would one-half of the East Side population. No matter where the audi torium would be placed on the East Side, that would be the case. In order to overcome all these diffi culties and not to have another bond issue, I would suggest that the audi torium be built on the park blocks fronting the Courthouse, which we all know Is easily reached by all the peo ple without transfer, and use the Mar ket block for a park in lieu thereof. We all know that there are not many children residing In the vicinity of the park blocks fronting the Courthouse, but there are lota of them around the Market block. It seems to me that by doing this It would solve the prob lem and ought to please the majority of the people. L. GERLINGER. City Will Appeal Street Dispute. City Attorney Grant yesterday filed in Circuit Court notice of appeal to the Supreme Court from the decision of Judge McGinn In the case of City of Portland against the Inman-Poulsen Lumber Company. The case involved the right of the city to dispossess the company of several street ends, which are included within the area on which the mills are located. Judge McGinn decided that title to the streets rests in the city, but declared the city estopped from taking possession as long as the company continues to use the thor oughfares for the purposes for which they are at present in use. Sew Woodland Council Meets. WOODLAND, Wash, Jan. 13. (Spe cial.) The new Town Council held Its first meeting Tuesday night and "ap pointed Lee Buskirk to fill the vacancy on the Council occasioned by a tie vote between Dr. Hoffmann and L. M. Lova at the annual election in December. Each of the candidates received 80 votes and as there was no method of settling the tie, the Council named an outsider. PARK SITE IS SUGGESTED Ii. Gerllnger Gives Views on Location of Auditorium. PORTLAND, Or.. Jan. 12. (To the Editor.) It was about a vear or so ago that the people of Portland were led to believe that they should have a public auditorium and the Issuance of bonds to the amount of 1600,000 placed on the ballot and voted for and carried by a large majority. The people were also led to believe that 1600.000 for building alone would be ample, as the city of Portland owned a suitable site for said auditorium without having to purchase one. Shortly thereafter the committee in charge approved the site, and were proceeding with the plans, but decided that the site was not large enough and that there was no way of vacating a street on account of the Ziegler amendment. But the com mittee thought that might be overcome for a time, but all at once it was de cided that the market block would not do. for the reason that It Is not large enough, etc In my estimation the people residing here are the city of Portland. And if the people or the city want the audi torium on the market block they can get It there, notwithstanding the Zieg ler amendment. The bonds were voted for with the understanding that the city would not have to purchase a site. Now the talk Is of having to vote for I Am Willing To Prove J Can Core "You To That End I Am Giving Away $10,000 Worth of Medicine INSTANT RELIEF the DEAF ACCEPT OUR If yea are deaf or '"'l:a,l W Tb Elsctropnon la OFFER TODAY hard of hsartn da not fall to call or write today and gst our Electrophone oa 30 Day, -SEE It Is a tiny but pow erful electrical hear ing device, a truly wonderful little In strument, perfected to such a oegro. that man y deaf people can now bear tta. faintest sound and enjoy all pleasure of church, nubile speaking or ordinary com area 1 1 o a.

For twenty-five years a quarter of a ceatury I have been trying to convince the public that I have something genuine, something better than others have for the cure of stubborn, chronic rheumatism, for torturing kidney backache, for annoy ing calls to urinate.

I don't ask them to spend any money to find out; I don't ask them to believe me, nor even to take the word of reliable people, but all I ask Is that they allow me to send them the medicine at my own cost. That is surely fair. To this end I have sat aalde ten thousand dollars, which will be nsed to compound my medicine. Much of It is ready now to be aent out. all of it fresh and standard.
