2-Year-0ld Hereford Female
Sold to P. W. Snyder, of
Swan, Or., for $1800. .
CHICAGO SHOW ATTRACTS
Attendance at Livestock Exposition
Exceeded 40,000 and Shattered
Hccord of Previous Shows
Held in Portland.
5he seventh annual Pacific Interna
tional Livestock Exposition, declared
by the management and stockmen the
most successful ever held, came to an
official close yesterday afternoon and
dispersal of the exhibits, some of which
go from here to be shown at the Inter
national Show at Chicago, began.
When Rose Donald, 2-year-old Here
ford female, sold at the day's sale at
$1800, price records for the show were
shattered. Cattlemen had been set
agog Thursday, when William Hart
nett, of Chicago, paid $1775 and 1625
for two Shorthorn cows to be shipped
to South America, but it remained for
the Hereford auction to surpass those
marks.
Record Attendance Noted.
Rose Donald was entered in the
show and the Hereford sale by Henry
Thiessen, who had reared her on his
ranch at Sweetwater, Idaho. She is 26
months old. r. W. Snyder, of Swan,
Or., was the purchaser.
T.otal attendance at the seventh an
nual North Portland- Stock Show was
estimated, by Superintendent W. L. Ten
nan.t to have been 40.000, or decidedly
in excess of attendance records of the
past. Both in quantity and quality of
exhibits the show also surpassed all
previous ones. With efforts afoot to
pr.ovido a mammoth pavilion and ample
barns in the form of permanent struc
tures, the officials are predicting that
Portland's exposition will in the next
two years forge ahead of any other
west of Kansas City, and rank next to
that city's American Royal, second in
size in the United States.
Chicago Show Attracts.
Splendid weather favored the exposi
tion this year, there being alm.ost a
complete absence of rain until the clos
ing hours yesterday. This meant more
to the exhibitors than the novice would
suppose, as they are extremely reluc
tant to endanger their championship
winners by having them housed only in
tents, as has been necessary at these
shows.
The University of California herds
men proceed from here to Chicago to
display California Marvel, grand cham
pion steer of the Pacific International,
and other winning members of their
herd, at the international show the
first week in December. One or two
of the Montana exhibitors are also to
make showings at Chicago and there
will be a general exodus fr.om here and
over the Northwest in the next few
days of stockmen who go to attend
America's greatest livestock show.
Attendance at the show and sale yes
terday was better than on the opening
day. Monday, when it was estimated
that 1500 persons visited the grounds.
The Hereford sale was the principal
attraction. This was conducted by Her
bert Chandler, of Baker, Or., with A. I
Stevenson, of Corvallis, Or., as auc
tioneer. The consignors were Henry
Thiessen, Sweetwater, Idaho; J. D.
Miles. Townsend. Mont.; A. B. Cook,
Townsend, Mont.; George Chandler,
Baker, Or.; William P. Emery, Macleay,
Or., and the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. The highest price paid for a male
was' that of $1000 given by Benton
Browers, of Ashland. Or., for Tarkio
Lad. aged 21 months, orfered by Mr.
Thiessen. Another of Mr. Thiessen's
prize-winners, Truman, 21-months-old
male, was pjrehased by George Dick
son, Prineville, Or., for J705. Chic
Beau, a 2-year-old male from the O. A.
C. herd, was taken by J. Frank Adams,
Klamath Kails. Or., for $700.
Auxiliary Plans Much Work
for Oregon Soldiers.
Meetings to Be Held Ertry Tuesday
Kvmlnpt at Public Library Bojii
lteporled to Be in Need of Woolen
Sock,
THE regular meeting of the auxiliary
to the Oregon Field Artillery, con
sisting of Batteries A and B, met Tues
day evening at the Public Library. An
interesting meeting followed, and plans
were made for many social functions
for the Winter.
Mrs. T. S. Loughlin, of 871 East
Madison street, has offered her home
for the card party which will be given
soon.
A letter was read from Captain
Charles Johnson, of Battery B, saying
the greatest need was woolen socks
for the boys.
Owing to the large amount of work
to be done the auxiliary will meet
every Tuesday evening at the Library
at 8 o'clock. An Invitation is extended
to those who are interested in the
welfare of the boys.
Dredging Operations to Begin.
CATHLAMET, Wash., Nov. 24. (Spe
cial.) Channel dredging rumors have
been current here for the past six or
seven years, or since Congressman
Warburton secured an appropriation of
J6000. A Government steamer in the
service of the United States Engineers
Corps has been in the harbor taking
soundings along the channel, and it Is
said upon reliable authority that a.
Government dredge will be here soon
try start dredging operations.
TRACE DISEASE
TO CONSTIPATION
On of the points on which
different schools of medicine prac
tically agree Is, that about 95 of
all human disease Is directly
traceable to Intestinal putrefac
tion, of stomach waste due to in
activity of the bowels, or oonsti-
atlon. The diminutive process
i an essential factor In digestion,
and on Its proper functioning' de
pends tha welfare oX tha satire
system.
Constipation Is a condition that
should never be neglected. As
soon as tha bowels evidence tha
lightest disposition to slow up, a
mild, laxative should be taken.
The combination of simple laxa
tive herbs with pepsin, known as
Sr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and
sold in. drug stores for fifty cents
a bottle. Is highly recommended as
a corrective, acting; gently-. In an
easy, natural way, without grip
ing" or other pain or discomfort.
A trial bottle of this excellent
family remedy can be obtained,
free of chartre. by writing to Dr.
W. B. Caldwell, 456 Washington

Out at 11 o'Clock as Band
Plays "Aulil Lang Syne."
Crowds There.
Shortly after McElroy's band played
"Auld Lang Syne" last night the light
of the Public Auditorium went out and
the Manufacturers' and Land Products
Show for 1917 was but a memory.
It was a good snow and, all thinsrs
considered, is declared to have been a
fine exhibition of manufacturing and
the products of Oregon lands.' Contin
uing over a period of three weeks, with
Colonel David M. Dunne, as president
and manager, and C. W. Minton as gen
eral superintendent, it is said to have
been a suecera from the standpoint of
attendance and finances.
"I am happy to say that the show
paid its way, although it had no bon
uses or gifts of any sort from exhibi
tors," said Colonel Dunne. as he
breathed a eigh of relief last night at
the close of the big show. "1 have
been connected with a good many such
affairs and I think this is the first one
having no financial assistance from ex
hibitors over and beyond the rent of
booths.
"Notwithstanding the heavy expenses
of operation necessary in the conduct
of such a ehow, I have paid every bill
and the show owes not a dollar; neither
does any one owe the show. We ran
this affair on a business basis and
closed up accounts to the dollar.
"The attendance varied from day to
day, but there was an average of 3700
here every day throughout the three
weeks. In view of the fact that so
many other affairs were In progress
and that the country is engrossed in a
great war, the showing has been flat
tering. I wish to express to the pa
trons of the show the appreciation of
myself and associates for their consid
eration and support."
The attendance yesterday was large,
especially during the closing hours of
the night, when the big auditorum
was packed with men, women and chil
dren. The management had provided for
special features during the day and
night, pipe organ recitals being includ
ed and being very much enjoyed by the
thousands present.

Portland banks show gains in both
deposits and loans and discounts by the
latest statement to the Controller of
the Currency, made yesterday, as of
November 20, in comparison with the
last reports made September 11.
In the interim, too, the state went
through an active liberty loan cam
paign, but this did not seem to put a
dent in the finances of the public, al
though a large part of the subscrip
tions have been paid up. Gains in de
posits and in loans and discounts are
said largely to be due to high prices
for wheat' and the heavy demand for
farm products generally.
National banks reported to the Con
troller of the Currency yesterday, while
state banks reported to the Commis
sioner of Banking at Salem. November
17 was the nearest corresponding date
of last year, and the condition of local
banks on that date, as well as on Sep

The next step in making ready for
the second draft of men for the Na
tional Army will be the organization
of medical advisory boards for service
throughout the state, on a somewhat
similar plan to that followed in organ
izing legal advisory boards, a task that
was completed' last week.
An officer of the Medical Reserve
Corps is expected to arrive her from
Vashington at any time and he will
confer with officials in charge of the
state work at Acting Adjutant-General
Williams' office.
The American Medical Association
and the medical section of the council
of National defense will assist ire the
medical advisory work. It is regarded
as likely the appointment of boards can
be started early this week.

closed Thursday, with a total of 1300
chickens and a large number of tur
keys, ducks, geese, cavies and pigeons.
The birds and animals are to come
here from all over the United States.
The entry list is far greater this
year than for any of the eight shows
held in P.ortland - heretofore by the
Oregon Poultry and Pet Stock Associa
tion. The class of entries also is said
to be much better owing to the large
space available for exhibits and nwlmr
also to the fact that the Portland show
mis year will be the main event on
the Pacifio Coast.
Many special events have been ar
ranged for the week of the show.
Among these will be a rabbit barbecue.

It is this: The dismantling of our store and fixtures has

part, for nothing is more injurious to the "health" of a piano

CHURCH AND STATE
Independent But Mutually
Helpful.
By Dr. JAMES E. TALMAGE,
Of the Council of tae Twelve, Church o(
Jeaus Ckrlat of Lattcr-Dar Salates
Salt Lake (III, ttah.
The teachings of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-Day Saints concerning
the duty of its members, and of all
men. In relation to the secular law, are
set forth in Section 134 of the Doctrine
& Covenants, which is one of the stand
ard works of the Church. This is part
of the law of the Church, and has been
adopted as a guide in faith and prac
tise by the members In general con
ference assembled.
OF GOVERNMENTS AND LAWS IN
GENERAL.
1. We believe that governments were
instituted of God for the benefit of
man, and that He holds men account
able for their acts in relation to them,
either in making laws or administering
them, for the good and safety of so
ciety. 2. We believe that no - government
can exist in peace, except such laws
are framed and held Inviolate as will
secure to each individual the free exer
cise of conscience, the right and control
of property, and the protection of life.
3. We believe that all governments
necessarily require civil officers and
magistrates to enforce the laws of the
same, and that such as will administer
the law In equity and justice should
be sought for and upheld by the voice
of the people (if a republic), or the
will of the sovereign.
4. We believe that religion Is Insti
tuted of God, and that men are amen
able to Him. and to Him only, for the
exercise of lt. unless their religious
opinions prompt them to infringe upon
the rights and liberties of others: but
we do not believe that human law has
a right to interfere in prescribing
rules of worship to bind the consciences
of men. nor dictate forms for public or
private devotion: that the civil magis
trate should restrain crime, but never
control conscience: should punish guilt,
but never suppress the freedom of tha
soul.
5. We believe that all men are bound
to sustain and uphold the respective
governments in which they reside,
while protected in their Inherent and
Inalienable rights by the laws of such,
governments; and that sedition and re
bellion are unbecoming every citizen
thus protected, and should be punished
accordingly: and that all governments
have a right to enact such laws as in
their own judgment are best calculated
to secure the public Interest, at the same
time, however, holding sacred the free
dom of conscience.
6. We believe that every man should
be honored In his station: rulers and
magistrates as such, being placed for
the protection of the innocent and the
punishment of the guilty: and that to
the laws, all men owe respect and def
erence, as without them peace and har
mony would be supplanted by anarchy
and terror; human laws being institut
ed for the express purpose of regulat
ing our Interests as individuals and
nations, between man and man, and
Divine laws given of heaven, prescrib
ing rules on spiritual concerns, for
faith and worship, both to be answered
by man to his Maker.
7. We believe that rulers, states, and
governments have a right, and are
bound to enact laws for the protection
of all citizens in the free exercise
of their religious belief; but we do not
believe that they have a right In jus
tice, to deprive citizens of this privi
lege, or proscribe them In their opin
ions, so long as a regard and reverence
are shown to the laws, and such reli
gious opinions do not Justify sedition
nor conspiracy.
8. We believe that the commission of .
crime should be punished according to
the nature of the offense; that murder,
treason, robbery, theft, and the breach,
of the general peace, in all respects,
should be punished according to their
criminality, and their tendency to evil
among men, by the laws of that gov
ernment In which the offense is com
mitted; and for the public peace and
tranquillity all men should step for
ward and use their ability In bringing
offenders against good laws to pun
ishment. 9. We do not believe lt just to mingle
religious influence with civil govern
ment, whereby one religious society is
fostered, and another proscribed in its
spiritual privileges, and the Individual
rights of Its members as citizens, de
nied. 10. We believe that all religious so
cieties have a right to deal with their
members for disorderly conduct accord
ing to the rules and regulations of such
societies, provided that such dealings
be for fellowship and good standing;
but we do not believe that any reli
gious society has authority to try men
on the right of property or life, to take
from them this world's goods, or to
put them in jeopardy of either life or
ymb. neither to inflict any physical
punishment upon them; they can only
excommunicate them from their soci
ety, and withdraw from them their fel
lowship. 11. We believe that men should ap
peal to the civil law for redress of all
wrongs and grievances, where personal
abuse is Inflicted, or the right of prop
erty or character Infringed, where such
laws exist as will protect the same;
but we believe that all men are justi
fied in defending themselves, their
friends, and property, and the govern
ment, from the unlawful assaults and
encroachments of all persons. In times
of exigency, where Immediate appeal
cannot be made to the laws, and relief
afforded.
12. We believe It just to preach the
gospel to the nations of the earth, and
warn the righteous to save themselves
from the corruption of the world; but
we do not believe lt right to Interfere
with bond servants, neither preach the
gospel to. nor baptize them, contrary to
the will and wish of their masters, nor
to meddle with or influence them in
the least, to cause them to be dissatis
fied with their situations in this life,
thereby jeopardizing the lives of men;
such interference we believe to be un
lawful and unjust, and dangerous to
the peace of every government allow
ing human beings to be held In servi
tude. For the Doctrine & Covenants, a vol
ume of modern revelation, and for other
