This is due to the ahti ' ..toxin trust, , which practically controls the whole output of the country, arbi trarily raising the price of their product 100 per cent. -The supply houses are all located' In Chicago and the medical as sociation of the state of Illinois is pre ' paring to make a. fight against the com bine under the anti-trust -laws. A member of - the state board of health. In speaking of the effect the . , raising of the price of toxin would have in Portland, stated: "It is an out . rage. Toxin now costs about 83 a dose, , and to cure a case of diphtheria It. re- quires three or four doses. If one child In a family Is suffering from the malady all the other children in the same house must take the treatment to prevent the contagion. This would, lh the average family, bring the cost Of treatment up to a sum which the average head of a family cannot well afford. As the mat ter stood before the raise the profits on toxin must have been enormous and now they are simply highway robbery. The 5 'only thing to do Is for some one to start ' an Independent concern for the produc tion of toxin. This is an expensive un dertaking and would involve considera ble risk, as the combine would probably "lower their prices so as to freese out , any competition. ' ,,. ," "'T.T "In some cities and states the matter of supplying toxin is in charge of the boards of health. In Oregon this sys- ! tem could also be adopted by the appro priation of a sufficient 'sum to the state ' board of health to provide a laboratory nnd employ a doctor to extract the toxin - from a horse Inoculated with the germs ' of the disease. : The Whole cost would be about 33,000. "By .charging , even a ' moderate figure for the output the ven ture would probably pay for Itself from , the sales made in this state. Toxin Is the recognised eure and preventive for - diphtheria, and as this malady Is bound . to exist among children the cure, should be provided at the least possible cost." ALBINA EXTENSION NEARLY COMPLETED The new Afblna extension of the Port - land Street Railroad company will be -.. .'completed in a very . short time, . but nothing further has been done In regard to completing other extensions, owing to unfavorable weather. ' This, morn ing W. I. Fuller, general manager of the company, said: " . . "In two weeks Hre shall have the Al bins extension running. Owing to bad ;, weather we , have done but, very little ' outside work on the Burnslde-street line, ' . so I cannot say when that will be com- :t j pieted." -.., '' : COOS COUNTY 'AT . 1905 CENTENNIAL The first county to make active prepa rations for representation at the Lewis and Clark exposition Is Coos county, Again this enterprising county has dis tinguished Itself . by making an appro priation for advertising the county at the St Louis exposition.

Several members of the city council were present yesterday afternoon at a special session of the- park board and urged " the improvement of suburban parks. In'conSlderatioh of these appeals the board rUTdouble the appropriations for Macleay, Columbia and Terwllliger parks. The . other outside ' recreation grounds -owned by the city will also be well cared for. . No decision has been made as to the proposed Fulton park of 35 acres, which was offered to the city free of cost.' At present It Is in the hands of a committee and until a report comes from that com mittee no definite scheme of Improve ment can be considered. ' ' - Superintendent ' Lowits has made a special investigation of the parks in the outside residence districts and says that one reason why they have not been kept in an Improved condition is because the young boys and hoodlums in the neigh borhood destroy the swings, "chairs, etc.. without the least regard to the con venience of the public. This has been especially true at Terwllliger' park, and hereafter a watchman will be kept on duty a part of the time at least a fence placed about the plot ar l any unseemly conduct will be punished,' s ; The question of large property owners in residence districts setting aside a por tion of their holdings for parking pur poses was again discussed and seems to be in high favor with the authorities. "It Is .of great advantage to everybody concerned," remarked a member of. the board after the session had adjourned. 'The board will agree to take care of as few or as many of these park hlocks a are donated to the city, but the more ths better. Every time a man disposes of a small part of his holdings in that way it enhances the value of the remain ing land enough to more than make up for any loss.',' The. scheme of setting aside park blocks In the various residence sections of the city is something that demands attention at the present time, in the opinion of the officials. Now all the park land necessary can be obtalnedl without any inconvenience, but in years to come, as the' municipality grows, it will be much more difficult. Ion Lewis Was appointed a committee of on to straighten out the financial tangle which followed Landscape Archi tect John L Olmstead's visit to this city. It seems that Mr Olmstead in his bill charged' for the services of an as sistant and the architected specifically stated that no assistant was to accom pany him. V"'"t " .v . . CHINESE INSPECTOR GOES TO ORIENT Earl B. Shaw, the son of the secretary of the treasury, was a passenger for Yokohama on the steamer Coptla which sailed from San Francisco, on Saturday. He is to serve at Toklo as a Chinese inspector- and will examine all Chinese bound for that port This is a new regu lation of the treasury department and Is being tried as sn experiment Its pur pose I to aid in preventing evasions of the exclusion laws. , Mr. Shaw will assist- Harold Bolts, who is to have charge of 'the work.

In the steerage were 85 Chinese passengers, in cluding 12 who were deported ' from Texas. A Chinese slave girl escaping from bondage was placed on the steamer by Miss ' Donaldlne Cameron of the Presbyterian mission. . The cargo of the Coptic amounted to 8.800 tons and included 300 tons of beef for the use of the Russian army at Vladivostok. Tnls Is to be transhipped for thtr Russian port at Nagasaki, but in event bf war will .likely be confiscated by the Japanese government.

Local agents of the North German Lloyd Steamship company, operating be tween New Tork and London, have re ceived tables showing the comparative schedules of the big ships plying between these ports during the past year, the re port of the United States auperlntendant of foreign mails being taken as authority. This report shows the Lloyd line to lead the procession. Its ships Kaiser Wllhelm der Orosse and Kronprins Wllhelm mak ing, respectively, the average time be tween New York and London through the year df ,152.3 hours and 154.3 hours. The ship with the- next ; lowest average was the Kaiser Wllhelm ,11, with an- average of 161.1 hours. This ship is also a Lloyd vessel. The quickest trip of the year be tween Nw York arid London was made In 148.6 hours, the Kronprins Wllhelm establishing this record. The swiftest boat of the Hamburg American . line, the Peutschland, most nearly approached the record of the Lloyd vessels, making the trip in the average time of 1617 hours. The best Cunard boat, the Lucanla, took an average time of 170.6 hours for the voyage. The White Star's best boat, the Oceanic, required 1T3.1 hours, and of the American line the Philadelphia, despite, her name, proved the swiftest, but she took an average time of 178.9 hours. The general average of all lines- Is about 300 hours, -and the slowest average time was by the Cymric of the White Star line, she taking 238.7 hous and only making three trips during the year, while many of the other boats mentioned made from 10 to 15 trips.
