wrXZJAaC X.. HTKLBUXT, Presi
dent O. w. f. By. Oo.
Btmlness men and citizens generally
are vigorously demanding that some
thing be done to obliterate the plague
of dust. Tho nuisance is now bad
"enough, but with the coming of a long
period of dry weather tho conditions will
be greatly aggravated.
Tho city authorities, however; spurred
on by public Opinion, will In all proba
bility take steps to solve the dust prob
lem before It assumes a more serious
phase.
On thoroughfares traversed by elec
tric lines of railway the solution Is not
difficult, provided the companies and
the municipality can agree upon terms.
Sprinkling cars can be operated cheaper
and mora effectively along the railway
lines than the old-fashioned horse and
wagon outfits that otherwise must be
employed.
Difference la Tlgurea.
There" is, however, a discrepancy be
tween the figures of cost given by two
of the railway companies. The Oregon
water Power A Railway Company has
offered to operate a sprinkling car on
its lines provided the city will bear one
half what Is claimed" to be the actual
cost of labor and power. This would
Involve an expense to the city of $160
per month. On the other hand, the City
ft Suburban Company asks $450 per
month Tor the operation of an electrln
sprinkler.
We are willing to aun a sprinkling
car over our HneH for one-half the ex
pense, $ltO per month. from the city,"
eaia rreHkiejit Hurlburt this morning.
I oeileve the trolley companies are lust
as much Interested In the dust problem
as Is the city, and they should do their
share.
'The figure named Is as 16w as dos-
slble, and Is In every way equitable. If
there Is no desire to make money out of
the city.
"This city is growing, and we must
realize that people will exDect us to con
duct It on metropolitan lines. The 'old
fogy' notions must be abandoned. There
Is no reason why Portland should not
be a clean, beautiful city, and we should
all strive to make it so. It Is the tmrt
of self-interest for the trolley lines to
ao tneir part toward keeping the streets
In shape, for this tends to augment their-

The moving pictures of the scenes
In connection with the visit or presi
dent Roosevelt to Portland two wenks
ago today have been received In this
city from the Sellg Polyscope house of
Chicago, where they were .taken to be
developed.
Mr. Shields, who Is conducting me
vaudeville entertainment at Cordray s,
had the work done for the purpose of
presenting them to patrons or that
house. Yesterday morning the views
were received and yesterday afternoon
at 6 o'clock. members of the press were
Invited to inspect them, f ully a score
of newspaper men assembled at Cord-
ray's at the hour named and for a hair
hour were entertained with as clear and
perfect a set of moving pictures as have
been put on exhibition in this city.
The "Human Flag," wnicn creaiea
such favorable comment during tht- pa
rade In honor Of the President, was
brought out very pleasingly, every feat
ure of the many ehildlwh faces being
splendidly depicted on the canvas. The
scenes at the park, where a crop of fully
10,000 umbrellas were grown mat uay
while Mr. Roosevelt was speaking, make
very attractive pictures. The President
himself is shown at a dozen points
along the line of march. Before the Ho
tel Portland a very striking scene was
taken, and Is brought out as clearly by
the polyscope as could- bo desired.
Particularly lnterestlnK are tne views
alona- West Park avenue, where thou
sands of school children had gathered
o cheer the Chief Executive of the na
tion. So perfect are the electric produc
tions that the rain drops are clearly
eeen as they spatter on the tops of um
brellas, and on the soaked pavements.
Mr. Shields will exhibit the valuable
views at his-entertainments, both after
noons and evenings, at Cordray's Thea
tre, aii'd the seeing of them will 'remind
people of f home.
The Show Tals Week.. .
The attractions presented at the con-

by Those who have beefl Ifi 'attendance fb

Eight distinct acts are being given by
persons who travel fcith reputations
gained for creditable work. Next wjjek

presented, and it Is announced that the
artists engaged are capable In every
rtspect, as they must.be, to have played
1ft the biggest and beet houses In Amer
ica. This Wepk full audiences Is the
record at Cordray's. The new bill be
gins Sunday afternoon with a monster
matinee.
avenging of tho young man's death by
his father, Wing Shee, who Slays Chin
Fang, are events so graphically por
truied that once seen they are not soon
forgotten and yet throughout all the
play, even when It rises to the tragic
climaxes, there Is no digression from the
beautiful, high, dignified language. So
ihat. while tho mind Is lld enthralled
by the weird mysticism, one Is never
shocked by a break-away melodramatic
Jolt.
The play will be put on with all the
Chinese efTects Chinese costumes,
music, scenery and stage 'settings all
will unite In transforming the -pretty
Baker Theatre into" a bit of Chinatown.
The piece Is continuous In three tab
leau. Following "The Cat and the Cherub"
will be produced the delightful one-act
comedy. "Tho Peacemaker." Jointly by
Mr. Ralph Stuart and Dudley A. Brag-
don. The comedy is bright and spark
ling, having for Its theme the love and
mlnlwips of a young married couple,
whose ideas do not harmonize, and who
are assisted In their matrimonial trials
by a friend, one Sylvester Sprague.
