The management ta not yet ready to say Just how the Willamette la to be croasad.

It meana that the city of Portland la to become the chief 'Pacific coast terminal of tha Hill roada; that Port land's trade, territory la to be extended far Into the eastern Washington country and absorb practically tha whole of southern Washington bwalaeae; that the Columbia river main lino la to bo made the highway of the great oriental trade that the Hill steamships are carrying to the sound snd the Hill roads are now lifting over tho mountains when it should roll over tho water grade from Spokane to Vancouver. atlmulua to orCaad's ttrowta. .,' s It meana more great railroad ahops on the lower peninsula: large round houses., to accommodate tha locomotives of both of ths Hill lines: and extensive docks on the Will ametta river .front, where Hill steamships will, eventually, dla charge and receive their cargoes.

In, tkaa ture of monopoly by .the Harriman lines. that have not always been acceptable to the business Interests of ths city and state. The metropolis of Oregon will for the first time secure' rail road compe tition in ita broadest sense, and the benefits from such competition will, it la expected, give an impetus to Portland i - - - Mt will la the next decade make it a city ot more thanPMOjMopla-. - I Business men and transportation of ficials foresee In the new movement a readjustment of the traffic situation In tho Pacific northwest, and a great fu ture for Portland harbor. , , . , etaasMra Win Be Chartered. ' Mr. Hill owna two great oriental liners, the Dakota and tba Minnesota, that will not for aome years enter this harbor. '' But aa soon as the .Northern Pacific's new docks here are ready to handle business,' the Hill roads will have a 11ns of. setamshlps ' char tered, ready to enter the Hats for the China. Japan and Philippine trade. These ships will, it Is said, be choaen with special care as to their adapta bility to thla harbor. It haa been as Id that formerly Mr. Hill waa antagonistic to expenditure of congressional appro priations for. deepening the channel at the mouth of the Columbia. His de cision to come Into Portland with the entire atrength of his two railroad sys tems and his ocean transportation linee shows that he. haa been completely won over by the natural advantagea possessed . - by- Portland as ths best routo- between the orient snd the east.- It la predicted by many that five years from this date practically the entire export wheat shipments of the Pacific northwest will pass through Portland, and that In its lumber export shipments there will . be a similarly large increase. - ' i-.'i,., - wm ot Saild to Soaad.

Wash., Sept. It, So far aa the church,, eourta ere concerned the dis sension in tne Metnoaisi cnurcn at van eouver-etided-'when the- decision of ths trial committee of tho Puget sound con ference dismissing, the charges against Rev. T. K. Elliott waa announced. But church eourta are not final in mundane affaire, and In the church there remains a schism that only time will heal. The decision rhouah sralnat Mrs. M. I. T. Hidden by no means defeats nor. Mra'HIdden's friends assert that there Is no such word In her vocabulary, and while she herself - says that It Is all over. It Is said with qualifications. Mrs. Hidden Is no longer a member of the church, She Is incensed at-the manneyln which she has been treated both by the court, of appeals st Centralis and the Puget aound conference at Everett. She haa 'great faith In the result of tho In' vestlgatlon that will flkely be made by the bishop. She declares that any state ments to the effect that the charges against Mr. Elliott Vera inspired by church officials who have succeeded in remaining In ' the background : are malicious falsehoods. ' r : Mrs. Hidden sent the following com munication to The Journal yeaterday Press dispatches state that the charges against Rev. Dr. Landenand Rev. T. E. Elliott were dismissed owing to tho fact that ao witnesses appeared agalnat them. ' - "The people who signed the charge did so with thd understanding that their depositions could and would be taken and sent to the conference aa pro vided by the discipline, and it doea not show lack of good -faith on their part because they could not be present at the trial. On the contrary, it shows, as we believe, that there waa connivance on the part of certain Interested parties to defraud these witnesses out of their rights and privllegea : -"Dr. Landen explained to the com plainants when they preferred the charges that they need not go to Everett In person, and other prominent ministers said the same thing, and also that these charges would bo referred to a commit tee 'who would give ample time for all necessary action, -? - . Y Wottfloatioa Cams Zrftas. "As - It - waa. the telegram notifying that the trials would occur on Friday only reached Vancouver Thuraday noon. thus giving but a few hours In Which to arrange for leaving homo and no time whatever for the taking of depositions. Indeed, this latter business necessitated the appointment by the presiding elder of a preacher, for each party for this purpose. f. .J .. .. . It Is clear to me that these trials wore rushed In order to prevent evi dence from being introduced. "There waa no excuse for dlamlsalne the chargea. If the committee wished to get at the truth , they could have tftillxed, ss they, had a right to, the testimony taken In tho trial of Mrs. Hidden, which covered all the charges brought agalnat ur. Elliott.. e "As to Dr. Landen's ease, all the testi mony necessary to convict htm could be found in bla letters to Mrs. Hidden, which were produced knd which show that he endeavored to compel her to pay expenses which the court had ruled should be borne by the church, and also that he postponed her appeal three times determined to rule on questions that couldnot come before blm until he sat as presiding officer in the appellant court. ' aVoores ta Oharch. "That a body of men who claim ite represent Him who came a bring peace. truth and righteousness ahould decide that all these Illegal actions, causing, as they have. Injustice and Irreparable wrong, are unworthy proper investiga tion, goes plainly to show that the great Methodlat church Is becoming tainted with the corruption and evil that abounds on every hand. f', "Honest laymen, who have never been called upon to study ths intricacies of church law, should not be defrauded ot their rights, though they may have failed to prepare the(r evidence through lack of knowledge of proper methods. It was the . duty of those ministers with whom the witnesses conferred to Inform them of the possibility ot these trials coming as they have. But, on the con trary. we were aasured that conference was ' a dignified body always - doing everything decently and In order. "If these' men, agalnat whom these chsrges were preferred, were honest snd upright, no harm could come to them from a thorough Investigation, But It would seem that - In the estimation of these committees the only hope of sadng ths church from deep disgrace was to throw the charges agalnat these rever end gentlemen out. ,'They forget that the charges - stand as before 4n the mlnda of hundreds and thousands who know of the wrongs that have been perpetrated, and the evil that haa been done.".
