It la said,, because tho have not looked Into the possibilities. Now that lumber carriers are bringing better ' returns than very well developed mines. ; the msa are beginning to take the mat--' ter Mrtouily and there la a good deal of talk of organising stock .companies ' for the purpose of building one- or mora large- steam schooners. ; ' "The only trouble in getting up stock company here for the purpose of building and operating vessels seems ' to be the. fact that everybody willing to take stock wants to be one of the mana agera," said a shipping man who baa been contemplating organising a com' . pany. - -They are afraid that unless they are at the helm they will not get , 100 per cent on their money or they r seem to fear that some one else will t derive a little more benefit from the project than themselves. - ,, ; -Down In San Francisco there la no trouble to organise a stock company to ' engage In shipping, for tha people know the Importance of tha traffic and have ' faith in the earning capacity of tha vessels. There la no reason why Port land, the greatest lumber shipping port In tha world, should not own at least a few of the many vessels engaged steadily in carrying the Immense prod uct of tha mills. Under existing oondi- ' tlons the big earnings of tha lumber carriers ga.-entlrely - to- outsiders -and. ' furthermore, they are . supplied with storks and equipment In their homo ports. -TV crews are paid off la 'the . homo port 'and this Itself Is quite an .item that should be taken Into -consideration. Portland should' own a mer chant marine, is entitled to It and I nope some day to see at least score of good steam schooners enrolled at tha customs house, here." ( j ,i . . TOW SAILING VESSELS A Steam Schooners May Ba Pat te aaora r .'. . Work Shortly. A ay stem of towing' lumber-laden i schooners has been inaugurated on the coast and it la said that before long . ., tugboata will be employed on extan . alve scale In transporting tha, lumber of the mills from one port on tha coast to another. Wlto freights at from If to 17 a thousand for lumber from north r rn ports to Ban JTraneisoo, enormous ;' profits can ba made on the nailing ' schooners when hooked onto tags In stead f having them .depend on the ' .winds. , s,uuv to suv.eov reel or lumoer ana - consequently earn tnonsanoa-oc aouar V each trip. . Depending. Upon tha breese . , (or motive . power It sometimes takes ''e. schooner six weeks to make tha run - that a ateam craft of ordinary speed ' can cover In leas than a . week's time, ' and hence the possible earning capacity ,1s greatly reduced.

Ha cams to the polios station yea tarda y to bid a fond adieu to his bosom friend. Patrol Driver Price. In company with li others, Ming is to be deported) by the 8 be Companies this morning. It hss always been the policy of the Chinese associations that whsn any of their members be come decrepit through age or by their refusal to labor eome to be regarded aa drones, to send them back to China." Ming baa been arrested several times of having the steam schooners now car rying lumber cargoes Between this port and San Francisco, take two or three sailing- achoonara in tow each trip. It la said that lbs flraj( onms stam schooner would not Interfere much with her SDoed. because moat of them are equipped with extraordinarily powerful machinery. The practice has been In vosua for many years on the Atlantis coast with satisfactory results, but ad far has been Introduced on tha Paciflo coast only by tha oil shippers, who adopted tha echeroe a few. years ago with annarent .success.'

The operating expense would not ba lessened, because fun craws would have to be carried by tha sahoonsrs, but this would Insure them against disaster la rough weather whan a tow Una might part any time. - By setting sail tha schooners could saally take care ... of themselves until picked up again, or they could make port , themselves, la tielr original way, , '..
