STEVENS BILL FAVORED REASOXABLK IItOKIT ON STAND ARD GOODS FORECAST, Right of Manufacturer to Fix Will Knd Lnfair Baiting;, V. Woodward Tells Salesmen. Price F. "The elTect of the Stevens bill, now pending before Congress, will be to re store to the retail merchant an oppor tunity to make a reasonable profit on well-known and nationally advertised articles." taid W. F. Woodward, of Woodard, Clarke & Co., in his address Friday night before the Portland Sales men's Club at Ha dinner at the liazel w ood. "It is only the nationally advertised articles that are sold at cut prices, and they constitute the target of the mail order houses. The cutting of prices on articles well known through advertis ing is the bait whereby the public is Induced to patronize these institutions. It enables the seller to dispose of in ferior substitutes or to give the false impression of marketing all of his mer chandise at a correspondingly low fig ure. "Cut prices are creating a dishonest merchant class. Substitution, falsehood and shoddy and inferior goods are the natural result of the unfair and un natural conditions such as are brought about by this practice. "If Portland is to become a great city it will not be through the agency of a few great mail-order concerns of the Kast nor a few great emporiums in our own city, which gain their strength and prosperity by the extinction of thousands of small merchants." The Stevens bill purposes to give the owner of a. trade-marked or copy righted article the right to fix the retail price on that article. This will-pre-vent. according to Mr. Woodward, the possibility of a large house using widely-known articles as bait to cus; tomers through cutting prices on. them to an extent that puts the retail mer chant quickly out of competition. A. G. Clark, ex-president of the Ad Club, was chairman at the meeting last nignt. BULK FOILS JAIL DELIVERY Fat Xcgro Becomes Wedged In and Ksciipc Is Blocked. GKORGKTOWN, Del.. May 15. Sher iff Jacob West, of Georgetown, here after may be written large as one who loves a fat man, for it was Harold Green, a negro of pronounced avoirdu pois, who prevented early this morning a general delivery of 11 prisoners at Sussex County Jail by becoming se curely wedged in a hole burrowed un der tho door. Green's imprisoned bulk held the re malner of the inmates back, and the Sheriff, responding to Green's fright ened calls for help, found them, all save one, cursing the negro for a bun gler. Fred Allen, one of several yeggs con. fined in the jail, who engineered the break, made good his escape, but was captured a few hours later by Walter Hearn, a farmer, eight miles from here, who had been notified by telephone. The fugitive was taken at the muzzle o'f a shotgun. The attempt to escape was made shortly before 3 A. M. The men allJ had been confined in a steel cell. Allen wrenched from his cot a piece of iron, with which he boke the cell door lock. Once in the corridor, he pried up a piece of the board floor and climbed down into the cookroom. At the main door he pried up a board and soon had dug a hole calculated to permit the escape of himself and his fellow prisoners. Calling to the others that the coast was clear the Sheriff lived on the upper floor of the jail Allen wriggled through to the court yard and scaled the wall. Green next essayed the brick-lined lane to liberty. Half way through he jammed. The more hev wriggled for ward the tighter wedged became the form of the black. Behind the other pris oners took turns at pushing, pulling and cursing, but the negro simply couldn't be budged. "Lawdy! Lawdy!" shouted Green. "Quit dat shovin'. Can't youall see Ah's swellin' up?" And his black face waxed even blacker as his breath came in suffocating gasps. By now Green was a tnoroughly frightened nogro, and he shouted fran tically for help. This brought the Sher iff out of bed with a jump. Herding the prisoners behind Green into a cell at the point of a revolver, the Sheriff pro ceeded to extricate Green.

VOICE IN PEACE DESIRED Willi l'ormcr Allies Alienated by Karly Neutrality, Italians liec ognize Necessity for Assum- itig Actiie Policy. BT JOHN- CALLA.V O'LAUGHLIX. WASHINGTON, May 22. (Special.) Italy's decision to stand by the allies In the great world war has resulted in the revelation of the terms of the secret treaty which she had for so many years with Germany and Austria-Hungary. That treaty had two prime purposes the maintenance of the equilibrium In Europe and the maintenance of the equilibrium in the Balkan states. It was a purely defensive instrument. By its terms it forbade a signatory power from taking any important Ptep which might disturb the peace of Kurope, without previous' consultation with its allies. In case of any move in the Balkans and consequent Increase of in fluence or interests therein, the power acting bound itself to give compensa tion to the others. Treaty Ignored by Vienna. Knowledge of these principal points of the treaty of tho triple alliance, which Italy denounced some days ago, is necessary in order to understand the course pursued by the Rome govern ment. To the astonishment of the Ital ian statesmen, Austria-Hungary failed to notify Rome that it had In contem plation the dispatch of an ultimatum to Serbia concerning the assassination of the Austrian Crown Prince. In other words, Vienna failed to carry out that provision of the treaty which called for prior consultation of all Im portant matters. Subsequently, when Italy called at tention to this failure, the Austrian government replied that it did not be lieve the peace of Kurope would be dis turbed, and that consequently the mat ter was not one for discussion with its allies. Italy then questioned Germany, which declared that it knew nothing whatsoever about the Austrian ulti matum until it was presented. When all these official papers became public, Italy convinced herself that Germany did have full and complete knowledge of Austria's purposes and acts and had backed them up. War Forced, Italians lfold. Iu other words, from the Italian point of view, the war was forced by Germany and Austria. The treaty did not bind Italy to act with those two countries in any contingency save that of attack by other nations. So, regard ing Germany and Austria as the ag gressors, Italy felt that she was free from giving them armed assistance. It is the firm belief of the Italian government that Austria did not mere ly intend to punish Serbia and with draw, but that she intended to remain in occupation of Serbian territory. This belief has answer from the conduct of Austria in the past and her course since the war began. Such occupation of course would have disturbed the equilibrium in the Balkans and would entitle Italy to compensation. At first Vienna declined to consider the appli cation of the treaty. Through the in tervention of Germany and this fact is looked upon by Italians as proof of the justice of their claim to compen sation Austria made various propos als, which Italy declined to consider because she regarded them as not made in good faith. Destiny In Mediterranean at Stake. Therefore, according to the Italian officials, the treaty of alliance had been violated by Austria and Germany i nail its essential provisions. Its de nunciation followed this conclusion. Because she held that Germany and Austria-Hungary were the aggressors, Italy issued a proclamation of neu trality at the beginning of the war. In doing so she alienated from herself th support of those countries in case of attack by the allies. Italy recognized that her position as a Mediterranean power and as the controller of the oes tiny of the Adriatic Sea was at stake. She realized that for her it hau be come not merely a question of possible increase of territory, but of national life. When the peace congress shall as semble the victorious powers will re cast the map of Kurope. As an out sider Italy would receive no oonsider.-i' lion In the Balkans or in the Mediter ranean. As the aide of Germany and Austria she would have been despoiled of all her African possessions. Br easting in her fortunes with the allies she will retain these possessions and if Germany and Austria should be defeated she will gain from the latter the old Italian provinces and also have a great deal to say in the Balkans and in con nection with the division of Turkey.

Review of Testimony Completed at 4:30 o'clock and Ballot Boxes Are - Taken to Jury-Room. After deliberating eight and one- half hours the jury that has been hearing the case of Albin L. Clark. charged wtih ballot alterations in pre cinct 37 In the November 3 election, reported at 1 o'clock Saturday morning that it had failed to reach an agreement. The jury retired at 4:30 P. M. yester day with ballot-boxes containing the i-o votes bearing erasures and changes n ravor or Tom M. Word for Sheriff. The trial was concluded with the argument of Deputy District Attorney Collier. Mr. Collier presented the theory that Clark, with Daniel B. Culhane as an accomDlice. chanced the ballots in the presence of tho entire Board while the count was progress ing. He said that Clark, who was first to open the ballots and examine them, could have made the erasures without attracting the attention of any of the other officials, and that Culhane, who also is under indictment. could have placed the new mark op posite Mr. Words name. James N. Linn, the-third man Indicted, was a Word watcher at the polls, and he was the only other man to see the ballots as they were being counted. Mr. Collier pointed out. The cross-examination of Clark was completed early yesterday, and resulted in no further disclosures than were made the day before. The argument of Deputy District Attorney Ham- mersly on the sanctity of the ballot was the state's opening gun at the close of the testimony. In his argument for Clark, W. T. Hume denounced the method of se lecting election officials, declaring that the November 3 election in reality was not legal because an illegal method of selecting officials had been used by the Commissioners. Mr. Hume also at tacked the testimony of N. F. Donnelly, chairman of the night board in Pre cinct 37. Tho trial started Monday morning. The only witness CHlled on behalf of the defendant was Clark himself. BOMBS FALL IN ROUMANIA Austrian Aviator Strikes- Town on Frontier of Koumania. LONDON. May 22.

MAD COW SPREADS TERROR Animal Had Been Bitten by Dog Surrering With Rabies. VINE LAND. VFt.. May 15.

The cow was bitten by a strange dog several weeks ago, and examination by chemists at the State Laboratory, where the dog s head was sent, showed the dog was suffering with rabies.

Glad to Recommend Mrs. Northforth Says She Suf fered With Call-stones for Several Years With out Relief. In a letter to the Pinus laboratories, Mrs. Rosa - Norforth. Monticello, 111., says: "I cannot praise Fruitola and Traxo too highly s I consider it saved my life. I suffered from gallstones for several years and could not get any relief until your preparation was recommended to me. It has been six months since I took the last bottle and I feel that I am entirely well. Have anyone doubting the merit of your preparation write me as I will be only too glad to recommend Fruitola and Traxo to anyone suffering from gall stones." Fruitola and Traxo are the names used to identify two preparations that are taken in combination. Fruitola acts on the Intestinal organs as a pow erful lubricant, softening congested masses and disintegrating the hardened particles that cause so much suffering, and expelling tho accumulation with al most instant relief. Traxo is a splen did tonic, acting on the liver and stom ach with most beneficial results and is recommended in connection with Fruitola to build up and restore the system that has become run down and weakened through tho suffering inci-j Dairymen Stockmen We Carry- Woodard, n Voters to Decide Whether to Run Water in Sewers. METERS WOULD CHECK USE Portland's Floral Beauty Is Accred ited to Present System, Which Mr. Daly Would Change at Cost ol $352,000. Which is the more desirable, beauti ful lawns and gardens or dead lawns and gardens and flooded sewers; Voters at the June election will face this question in the form of a ballot measure submitted under the referen dum giving Commissioner Daly power to put meters on every House in Port land at an Initial cost of 1362.000. Under conditions as they are the water user pays the city $3 and is privileged to use plenty of water on lawns and gardens during an entire year. To this system is accredited Portland's floral beauty to a large ex tent. The city-wide meter scheme as pro posed would end this. When the lawn and garden owner takes up his hose and turns on the water the wheels begin to run In the busy little water meter. Water Shot Off Prematurely. It takes somebody more than the man of moderate means to stand by and hear a water meter rapidly tick ing up the cents which when put to gether at the end of a month make a big sum. The water is shut oft prema turely and the lawn's greenness fades and its freshness disappears. The Water Bureau thereby saves some water. The saving Increases the biz stream which is dumped into the big Brooklyn trunk sewer at the reservoirs or increases the stream lhat bubbles over the spillway at the Bull Run headworks and rushes on down to the Sandy River and finally into the Columbia. Sacrificing of the city's floral beauty so that the volume of waste water at the reservoirs can be Increased is the plan of tiie water meter proponents. And the cost will be more than $100. 000 a year. The city will, in short. contribute $100,000 a year for the dls tlnction of having the name. "The city of dead lawns and gardens." There has not been a day since th completion of the big Mount Tabor reservoirs that the Brooklyn sewer in Division street has not carried away a torrent of overflow water from the reservoirs. Had the Water Bureau officials turned open the gates at th headworks at any time during the Summer the reservoirs would have been overflowed to such an extent that the big trunk sewers could not have carried away the water fast enough. People Would Economize. Sections in which the families of limited means reside have most fb fear from the water meter proposi tion. A man who has no money to spare will certainly economize on the use of water for his garden and lawn If he hears a busy meter ticking under the strain of his open faucet. His economy will result in additional water for flushing the Brooklyn sewer. Portland is facing no water shortage. on the other hand there Is an over abundance of water.
