throw a stone from one mlllyard to
another, and so on. for the entire dla-
'tance from Portland to the mouth of
ther Wlllamettev11- F-C.- Knapp declared
at a recent meeting or jumoermea-rm
Portland.
-.Mr. Knapp, ";who Is aecretary ot , tho
Peninsular Lumber company. located at
University Park, repeated his predic
tion yesterday to The Journal. For
years stories have been printed, from
time to time, foretelling the final dlsap
oearance of marketable timber from- the
Teglona -that have aa Jong supplied the
bulk of the- nation s fine lumbar, sasnes,
doors and shingles, but' tha remoteness
of such an event did not arouse .publio
Interest. The time Is here when definite
liaures" canbe given, and - lPHa srcert'
tainty that within the next five years
tha lumber Industry of --tha United
States will shift t tha Paclflo. north.
t-taev big dumber mills that Turnian
employment-to- thousands f mea in the
river cities from Bt. Louis to tne t,s
nadlan border will close- down and the
plasi of -lumber distribution north of
Mason and Ulxon's Una will have been
revolutionized. - ;
All ZiOok Toward Portland.
Observant lumber manufacturers are
preparing- t meet this eonilngnwoy,. It-
rr
aid tna eves ot must vi mem
t u rnln g towardthe Wlllamteaiid tj.q
lumbla. - .
"On a' -recent visit to my former -home
at Ashland and Saginaw, I was partic
ularly Impressed with the nearness of
tha change," said Mr. - Knapp. '-"The
,nni..i rut nt all tha large mllla haa
dropped-Jtway-down. .. It is a fact that
today 130,000,009 leex is ins ukmi in
dividual holding of atandlngvplne In
the state of Mlchlgan, Only -a few
yeara ago mills on the Saginaw river
alone, from "Bar City to Saginaw, were
cutting a billion feet a year, xeept-I
in- two- concerns, there is not a lumoer
compsry-ln 4w ""' f-ountrv that haa
mora than, enouah timber to-run to ca
pacity more than five or six years. The
two exceptions I " refer to have enough
timber poaslbly to run twica that
length of time. ..
The result ef-thls is seen tooay ia
tha record books of Oregon and Wash
lngton.r An examination will ahow the
namea of nearly every large mill owner
in -the "north central states. " They have
been dropping their surplus- money-ante-the
forests of tha Pacific northwest for
the-laatalx yeara. ... This means the
shutting down of the' old mills there,
ana ine starting vi new .
. XUla Will T-'" th.a Jtlver. ,
The new mills wiU naturally seek
the bestTocation with regard-to" coii
venlent market. They wlU-llne thsv WIl
lamette river,- I am not alona In this
vlaw. Eanerlencea of lumber men ' In
tlon. I saw' the Saginaw river from
Bav City to Saginaw, la miles, filled
with thesa-r Industries until 4waa a
hive that produced double the amount
of lumber .annually tnat is cut in fori
LnruLinrtny. . Just -suppose yt dou-i
bl the number, ana capacity oi jumDer
mllU-aara-now- and rea01te.ybatU.wlU
mean. And that la but a bagatelle com
pared to what the real Increase will be."
Mr. Knapp believes the bulk of the
country's lumber supply will ba drawn
from Oregon. H aays the Oregon fir
will supersede the white pine of Mlcht-
can. Wisconsin and Minnesota. There
la little pine timber In the Texas
panhandle. In Colorado, - and patchea
here and there In the Rockies, but not
worthy serious consideration in tlie gen.
era! sense.. The. southern pine is infer
lor In sjxe. ana . ceesnov yieia a line
of heavy timbers. i . .. ..
TwO States left.
The stales of Oregon and Washington
only areleft irosi wbicin construction
men may draw all theywant In the line
onnaterlala. and H1a Ticre tho great
mills will be set up. . Manyof them are
Uia.jnuya. There ara.thra
new onea on the eaat bank of the Wil
lamette and plana are being drawn for
a fourth and larger one. It is sald-lhe
Weyerhsuser company- will begin con
struction oi lis great mui intra mis
year. The ground 1- being prepared,
and the architect's drawings are being
made. - '
"Another, and to lumber mill men, an
Immensely Important phase of the ques
tion, la the' tariff," continued Mr.
Knapp. "North of tha Canadian bor
der are large' lumber manufacturing
concerns that are now bmiuIiiie Ihelr
surplus product to the mother country.
As soon as the mills of Michigan, Wis
consin, Minnesota ana neighboring
states shot -down tlie people of 'those
states will xhange front on the tariff
question. . They will probably demand
that the tariff of It per 1.000 feet on
lumber be removed and a flood of Ca
nadian lumber admitted, because it la
nearer tp them. -The only aalvation for
the mills of the Pacific northwest will.
In my Judgment, be the retention of the
present tariff.
Tariff and Trelghts. J -"Our
mills . here ' will have Jo. . meet
the-raHroa frelghrchargea on lumber
shipped Into eastern markets, and to en
a bl e them to com p ete with Canada some
measure ot protection will have to be
granted.., Jf tha tariff on lumber were
removed It would certainly put the blg
mills of Oregon out of business."
- Tha ' Peninsular Lumber company,
which haa a 10-acre site, is remodeling
Its grounds, andpreDarlog for large
Increase of storage capacity. Much of
tha 20 acres He on a steeply sloping
bank of the river. Tha company put In

charge, at least Immediately." he de
clared, v "Dlxaon had worked for me
but one dybut I. will not see. the fam
lly of my desd workman disposed of in
that niaemes."
Mr. Pence was gg good aa his word.
He made arrangements immediately for
the w.ldow and her children to take
charge of one- of the boarding-bouses
that will be maintained for the work
ing crew -of. the Pence company-Bhe
wU4 have t9 to 60 men tn feed, drawing
the uaual price for their weekly board.
Three or four of her 'eld?r children

make a neat little profit on tha work,
Mr. Pence haa already arranged for the
erection of .temporary ... quarters. - He
will have a tent stretched near the
scene of the largest camps, and . this
will be equipped for the widow's board

ares In which mothers Indulge lndis
.criminality, to the detriment of their
children. A specific caaa waa - men

a atreetcar one day, who .pointed but
absurdly molodramatio poaters to her

going Into ecstaclea over certain cheap
melodrama, confided to her companion
that she always put her boy to sleep
early In tha afternoon that he might

Mrs. Wood added that nothing short ot
providential interference "toura e.ve
that boy from the villainy . with which
his mind was always associated. -Ijazy

care and responsibility of tha child "to
a nurse or soverness were censured.
