NO QUARTER TO BE GIVEN Steps Taken In Accordance With Previously Announced Poller and Orders of War Department to Protect Soldiers. Relentless war against commercial Ized social vice Is to be continued in Portland. Mayor Baker, Chief of Police Johnson and prosecuting; officers yes terday reduced to writing a statement of the policy of the local government on this point. The programme Is outlined as fol lows: "That commercialised prostitu tion In the city of Portland should be subjected to an unrelenting prosecution and that the women engaged in this traffic, as soon as detected, should be arrested, and during the interval be tween giving ball and trial should be kept under police observation! and If they again ply their trade that they be Immediately arrested again and that arrest should follow arrest. Ok "The practice of these people has leen to give bond and between the time that they give bond and the trial to ply their trade, enjoying, during this period. Immunity from arrest. Some body was always ready to furnish the b&jl money. Recently there was de posited for women arrested the sum of til, 000. "Men interested In the traffic have furnished the needed money so that the occupation would not be disturbed. It may be possible by calling for one bond after another that the financial resources of these men may be j naustea. at lease iney win noi uo per mitted to use the machinery of the law as the protection for the prosecution Of this unlawful business. In a word, a vigorous war from this time on will be waged against this class, and it is the opinion of the members of the recent conference on this subject that they will be successful In suppressing this traffic" The action has been decided on as a war measure. "Experiences drawn from the battlefields of Europe," says the aeport, "reveal the astonishing fact hat at a time now past more soldiers ere In the hospitals and Incapacitated through venereal diseases than were soldiers In the hospitals arid incapaci tated from cannon and rifle fire. This amaslng condition is forcing the Gov ernment of the United States and other governments 'Involved In the war to extraordinary efforts to diminish and prevent Incubation and spread of these dreaded diseases among the fighting men of this Nation. "Conditions In our Army cantonments show that the greatest perils from venereal diseases to the Army forces of the Nation occur before the soldiers of the Army enter the service of the Government. The points of infection therefore are to be found in the cities chiefly, and our Government is now Calling upon the civil authorities of all the cities in the land to enforce strictly and continuously every law for the suppression and elimination of prosti tution, the source from whloh this con tamination comeB."

He Is the only foreigner permitted to land in Nippon without passports since the beginning of the present war. - Clippings from the Toklo Advertiser, received by The Oregonlan, detail the numerous receptions given and planned for Captain Hardy, the holiday attire of villages he visits and the affection ate enthusiasm with which he is greeted by populace and officialdom. Emperor and Empress Receive Him. It is announced that Captain Hardy will be the guest of honor at the Im perial chrysanthemum garden party and will be received by the Emperor and Empress, a distinction that doubt less has passed into Tokio chronicles some days ago. Accompanied by high officials and a host of sightseers, Captain Hardy ful filled his' vow to visit the memorial monument erected by the Japanese to Commodore Perry, at the landing place of the American sailors on that expedi tion of 60 years ago and there to offer prayer for the friendship and prosper ity of the two nations. The streets of the Japanese villages en route were hung with lanterns, the sun flag, and the Stars and Stripes, and thronged with school children who cheered the old seaman as he passed by. Of the greeting extended Captain Hardy, the Toklo papers relate that It was epochal in its spirit. Government officials and civilians vied with each other In doing honor to the guest. Aged Hen Hold Reanlon. "But none of these conveyed the touch of sentiment," says the Toklo Advertiser, "which characterized the scene of the Captain's reception by Sansayemon Okada, 88 years old, the only surviving retainer of the Shogun government which met Perry and his ships In 1863. Neither could speak the other's tongue, but when the two old men fell Into embrace there was ex pressed a sentiment too deep for words." Soldiers to Get Phonographs. EUGENE, Or., Dec 22.
