All. Oregon Should Stand
BehihJ Them.
If 'ConvcatioQ Is Secured for Port
' land It Win Mean Much',;.
. to the State
Oregon expects every livestock man to
do his duty! , '- " "I,
That Is the watchword of. thosa who
are grooming themselves to win the bat
tle that is to be fought out t Kansas
City; and if they do win. Portland .wilt
be the meeting place Of tbe National
Livestock Association in lf04. The
plan being followed Is to gel; every man
who can blow a horn into line and have
him exert his powers In favor pf this
state...:, .;v ",,...',
,- "It we win,"' said a prominent live
stock man today, "we will have done
more for Oregon' animal industry than
all the other men who were ever -gathered
together in the cause."
It Is . not the immediate benefit that
such a convention would b to Portland
that these worker have In mind, - They
know the resources of the State of Ore
gon and .of the Paoifio Northwest gen
erally and they know, alsok that these
resources are not properly appreciated
in ths East and Middle West. ' The
bringing of men who are experts in
stock raising into this country, t where
they could, not help "but see for them
selves the true value of the Oregon
ranges, would result in much lasting Im
provement, '
CAN BE LANDED. ' .
Those prominent In the movement are
certain, they say, that the next meeting
can be secured, provided every one will
put his shoulder to the wheel.;
"These are the days when rooting
counts," said a prominent worker to
ward-the deelred'ehd: -''"it we s.tf:tut-
root those who are opposed to us, then
we will win. A big advantage la our
favor is the fact that we have the best
oountry to talk about Our rang Is
not all taken and what land there Is
open is not sky-high in price. That Is
something that will help us in our root
ing and we want to root to win. . The
larger the delegation, the better the
showing and the more certain we are to
win."
Stockmen from all over the state aay
Portland would reap more benefit than
any other one section, although all Ore
gon would be affected. Portland, they
argue, is the real center of all trade
connections In the state and stock would
have to come here to find a market.
NEED PACKINO HOUSES. : -
Large meat packing establishments
could find splendid business In this City,
Experts have long been of this opinion
and ens of the hopes of holding the Na
tlonal Livestock Association convention
har.Js thai enterislng-&sis will see
the opening' here and take advantage o
it in a manner that will be of material
value to the city as well as to all those
who grow meat for market.
In an interview, Livestock ' Agent
Mlllis, of the O. R. & N. Co, recently
stated to The Journal that Portland
was the natural center of the whale live
stock trade of the Paolflo Coast and
that only effort was lacking to Corral
it ' Ths market, although large, he said.
wag as yet undeveloped. Mr. Mlllis Is
one of the prime movers for the live
stock convention here and will be fore
most In the light that will have this
victory as its object.
The delegation will leave Portland the
last of the present week. .

SAYS SUMPTER
IS PROSPEROUS
Big Mining Camp Is Rapidly Forg-
? tag Ahead
R. '& Pentlandi rwrtntnlng man, has
returned from a vttt to Sump ten where
he spent a few days. He reports that
the big mining camp Is on a more solid
basts today than ever before. He says:
"There is no belter indication of Sump
ter's prosperity than the) fact that nearly
all the storekeepers there own their own
business buildings. Two or three years
K . SX letied- J.tarlX .'"hsrfc be
cause they did not .have sufficient funds
to do otherWise. When a business man
can make enough money In a new town
during such a short period as to enable
him to Invest heavily In Improved real
estate, the only conclusion that one can
arrive at is that the town In which) he Is
located must be a very prosperous one.
This is the condition of affairs at Sump
ter to my personal knowledge. It shows
that the mineral' Wealth of the district
. has not been overestimated. That, of
course. Is the principal resource, and as
it is being developed the town is keep
ing pace with it. '
. ANOTHER INSTANCE..
- "Here is additional evidence that Sump-
ter is progressing. . Schwab, a Port
land printer, went there' about three
years ago, and purchased an Improved
business property for M.S00. At that tlms
tba, camp was young and booming,, and
the price was considered rather a steep
one. The former owner bad been realis
ing an income of 23 per cent on the in
vestment, but soon, ufter Schwab secured
itaoout ia per cent, was an tnat lie could
realise. He considered this a paying
pronosltWn, however, and stayed with
it.. A few days ago. he sold the property
for $6,000. This is cited as another in
stance showing that the town is forging
ahead at a rapid pace."

Hoyeinent; to ; Combine
Commercial Bodies
Plan By .Which Portland Is to Be
Represented by an Jifluen
' " tial Association.
Considerable discussion 1 going on.
amonr leading business nien of Portland
relative to. the advisability of having one
eehtral , cdmmflrcUl organisation, which
shall f be ' composed of members of the
Chamber, of Commerce, Board of ' Trade
and the-Manufacturers' Association. The
object, it is understood, will be to, bring
the locar commercial orsranlsatlona ih
I closer bonds for the'general good of the
City of PbrOand. V
The plan proposed is sonnewbat as fol
lows: The various Portland commercial
organisations are to appoint committees
to meet and form a central body, such
o In Boston, ; whefe about TB cotnmerv
clal organisations are united into one.
central body,, known aa the Associated
Board ot Trade of Boston.
As may readily be seen, such an orgail
tsatlon would not be without Its influ
ence. Whits the various associations will
remain individual bodies, it is the pur
pose ef the proposed new one to merely
pe a central noay, ' wnere an vital mat'
ters may be referred and acted upon. -
The plan is somewhat on ths style of
tbe labor unions, that have a central
body In' tbe Federated Trades Assembly.
All matters of Importance that seem too
hugs to be handled by an Individual union
Is referred to the Federated Trades, who
have considerable influence, being com
posed of delegates from every union in
the city.
Many prominent business men have ex
pressed their desire toward assisting In
the organisation as suggested, but as yet
nothing definite has been undertaken.

"I would so arrange the departments,'

time In running to and from the vari

WUN BUM LUNG.
His Initiation Into the Mysteries
of Cake-Making.
... Tear ago Bret Harte wrote theoft
quoted line
"For ways that are dark and tricks that
are vain, the Heathen Chinee Is
peculiar."
The experiences of the Smith' family
with their Chinese servant, as given in
the columns ot .The. journal the other
day, exemplifies, the truth of this. It
suggests to a Portland woman the pro
priety of her relating an experience she
had with her first Chinese servant. Wun

the flour in tbe pan and meawirlmr out
the proper amount, of sugar, ordered
Luimt to bring ber some eggs. He did so.
and hovered about bis instructress with

RIGHT TO PULL
- THE CAR BELL
St. Locis Court Decides, in Fayor
of the Passengers. .
8T. LOUIS, Jan. 5. Judge Traey. of
the Dayton Street Police Court, ruled
that a cltisen had a perfect right to pull
the register cord of a street car or any
cord or rope he saw when he had first
signaled the conductor to stop the car,
in a proper manner, and his request bad
been unheeded.
In making the ruling he released AlSert
Kennedy, a one-legged man, who had been
arrested at the Instance of Conductor
Emtio Hirsch of the Jefferson avenue line,
on the charge of ringing up cash fares.
Kennedy was desirous of alighting at
Cass and Jefferson avenues, according to
his testimony on - the - witneea-etand.- He
pressed the button to notify Conductor
Hirsch to stop the car at that point,
but although the conductor beard the
bell he failed to have the car stopped.
Becoming angered at the treatment ac
corded him, Kennedy then pulled the reg
ister of the carthinkingJie claims, that
he was pulling the bell cord, in doing so
he rang up several fares, which so en
raged Conductor Hirsch that he sum
moned Police Officer Cogan. who arrested
Kennedy fordisturbance of the- peace.-
Judge Tracyr in- dismissing th defend
ant's ault, said: ' -
"I think you were- justifiable In ringing
the register cord, as any other cltisen
would have been, under the circum
stances. The testimony of various pas
sengers on the car that you first pushed
the button for the conductor to stop.
which request was ignored by bira causes
me to believe that you. were, in the right
in the difficulty. You are discharged.'
