A year and a halt ago th Orlental-

the local and coast agenoy for the
"Annuo" cement manufactured In Toklo.
This cement had the indorsement of the
Japanese and Russian government, and
for 10 years had been the chief oriental
oement used In fortification work. After
this record it waa brought to America,
and In the government office her was
given exhaustive tests to determine
whether it was as good as pronounced
by eastern officials. The result of the
government tests here showed that the
"Aaano" cement at the end of three days
stood an average breaking teat of 411.6
pounds.. which was satisfactory.. At the
end of seven days, however, the cement
tested aa average of 440.1 pounds, and
at the end of II days it tested 877
pounda There are many European ce

ment for three days, some test higher
at the end of aeven days, but few stand

test the better the cement is a maxim
in use among government contractors.

Two tickets are In the field as the out

faction to hoodwink the other.

At a meeting held a few evenings ago
at Oreaham a ticket was placed in the
field. It Is asserted that the meeting
waa adjourned by a previously arranged
plan, without making nominations, and
that afterward several cltisens returned
and put up a ticket By following thla
method, it la claimed, all chances of
those whom the political lights desired
nominated being defeated was avoided.
When the others who were present be
fore adjournment took place heard of
this, they decided to call a meeting, and
make nominations . In opposition. Thin
meeting waa held last night but th cer

hailed from Japan, local contractors
frowned on the "Asano" cement for sev
eral months, and lta Introduction In
Portland was no easy task, but at th
end of 18 months the importing agents
have secured a large proportion of the
business, and local contractors that for
merly used European cements have
switched and use tho product of the
Toklo cement factory.1 A standing of
fer has been made by the importers that
if for any reason work done with the
'Aaano" does not wear as well and stand
all tha tests undergone by the best Eu
ropean cements the work will be
torn up and renewed free of cost 80
far no work has been renewed.
It Is Interesting to note what Colonel
Ivanhoff. inspector-general of harbor
eonatruction at Vladivostok, said about
this Japanese cement 14 years ago when
Russia and Japan were friends: "The ce
ment not only came up, to the require

Although net ' having been given
thorough test th pew drydook at St
John was formally' tnrned over to the
Port of Portland by Contractor 'Robert
Wakefield yeaterday afternoon, , at . a
meeting of tho commission. In return
for th property, th contractor was
ordered paid in full, excepting f 1,100 of
tn - contract price, , wtuaiir tna-oosnnua
slon will hold until such tlm aa Mt
isiectory teat ox the dock can do maae.
If at that time the dock meats all
qulrementi tho balance of 11,100 wHl be
paid. Should it b discovered In the
meantime that any of -the material In
th structure l not In aooordanc with
th specifications, or that tb workman
ship Is faulty th contractor -will be
required to make such changes as are
deemed necessary, or forfeit tho sum
which is still being held by the com
mission, out of the original, contract
price.
This conclusion was reached after eon
slderabls discussion. The -proposal .was
mad by Mr. Wakefield, himself, who
stated that he had carried out. ail the
terms of the contract and that h ought
to be paid. He explained that sine th
Port of Portland had been operating the
dock and by mean of It war seeking
and securing business, he believed that
th commission ought to tak formal
possession and relieve him ot any fur
ther anxiety a to it welfare.
Excepting DrlscolL nearly all - the
other member of th commission took
th same view as th contractor, - Mr.
Drleooll said he waa not In favor of
paying another farthing to the builder
until it had been conclusively shown
that tha dock was all that has been
claimed tor It He maintained that, ao-
coraing to tho terms or the contract Mr.
Wakefield should be required to secure
vessel of sufficient capacity to. give
the dock a thorough test When he did
this ho would be In favor of paying the
contractor, provided th dock stood th
test
By motion it waa finally decided to ac
cept Mis Wakefield' proposition, Prior
to the dlsousslon th contractor was
allowed the final payment of 11,111.71
for preparing the berth for th drydock.
A committee composed of C Mln-
singer, J. W. Cook, N. Troger and A J.
Martin was present st the meeting as
repre4entatlves of property holders along
thov waterfront In th northern part of
th city who wanted to know if the
Port Ot Portland dredges oould depos.lt
sand and. gravel upon a atrip of land
lying between Fourteenth and Seven
teenth streets on North Front street,
and what th approximate coat would
be a cubic yard. They stated that the
property is to feet above th low-water
mark. It had been estimated that 11,000
cublo yard of material taken from th
river channel would be sufficient
Upon . motion ot Commissioner Pease
it was decided to quote them a price of
is cents a cuoio yard, and that the work
would be don at such tlm aa will be
convenient to the Port of Portland. The
committee will submit the terms to th
property owner and report later aa to
whether or not th bid will be Accepted.
It was decided to leav the matter of
