ments for the first separate meeting
In Portland of the board of Domestic
missions and church extension of the
Methodist Episcopal church was held
yesterday afternoon. Among those
present was Bishop , Moore who pre

time for the proper - entertainment of
delegates who will come from all parts
of the world. At this time It is an
ticipated that bishops of tha church will
attend from Asia, Europe, South Ameri
ca and even Arrica.
Heretofore the board of domestic snd
foreign missions always held Joint

the work and each body will In futuru
work separately. -
Of especial Interest at the cominc
convention which will be held tn Port

home missionary funds.- One of the
great difficulties - In connection, with
home missionary work in the Oregon

the too few well paying -charges..

Manufacturers' Association
Asks for' More lUgld
Control of Railroads.
At a meeting of the Manufacturers'
association lsst evening resolutions
were adopted asking from the govern'
ment more rigid control of tha railroads
and urging that a railroad company
should not be allowed to Increase a
freight 'rate without first granting- a
hoarlng to all parties Interested and se
curing approval of. the Interstate com-
control and the resultant rapid develop
ment or western Canada ami vruisn Co
lumbia were pointed out ss lessons to
the United Btatea government in rail
road regulation.
It Is said the practice of the railroads
!ft toe Pacific northwest and elsewhere
of Increasing a freight rate without au
thority from the railway oommlsalor
works untold hardships upon producers,
manufacturers, middle men and consum
ers, and that ths law should be changed
to ive tha People a chance to defend
themselves acainst the railroads.
Whan a. rate la to be chanced tne
hearing before the commission should
ha held before the rate ia out Into ef
feet Under existing laws tha railroad
can-make an Increased rate eirecuve
and If the people object they have to
sure a hearina. which is frequently
Ions- drawn out, and meantime the In
creased rate is destroying or aemoraus
Ins their business, and rendering them
hors de combat so far as conoerns their
fanacltv for TlEhtlna tne apuses com
named or. in mauuraciurers aay uui
he only way they can have an equal
chance with the railroad rate barons
Is t prevent rate Increases until a
hearing Is first had.' ' .'
Ths case or tne lumoer manufactur
ers of the Pacirio northwest is cited
ss an Instance of destruction of a great
Industry by the railroads arbitrarily
Increaslnc the transcontinental racea on
easthound lumber shipments to such an
sclent thitt tha entire profit of the
manufacturer and a part of his cost of
production in addition is cooiiy appro-
priaiea Dy ine ran roe a vmrnn. wim

down and ao out of business.
The Manufacturers- association win
hold ita next monthly meeting Novem
her 6. Recent accenal6ns to Its ranks
are a furniture makinsr plant emoioyin
60 people, and a mirror factory that Is
turning out a product rivalling eastern
mirrors in quality ana price.
The association snortiy wiu issue a
directory of Its membership. This dl
rectory will be distributed with the
Idea of creating a greater demand for
goods manufactured and sold by mem
bera The directory will be given large
circulation among' non-members who
may at some future time support ths
organization which Is doing auch a
e-reat work for the upbulldine- of the
manufacturing industries of the coast

MOTIVATION
, There will never.be any tearing up of
- streets in Ladd's Addition for the purpose,
of repairing underground conduits, such
, as sewer, water or gas. These have all
been laid in the'14-foot alleys. At inter
sections, where the gas mains would cross'
the streets, .thegas company has made
its permanent connections already. The
LADD'S
owner of property in Ladd's Addition,
therefore, will never be annoyed by rough
gangs of men cutting up the pavement
and making the street impassable for days
at a time. "I This has enabled the Ladd
Estate to lay an unusually good quality
of asphalt on all streets. u

J
There is not a section of the city that has better or more conveniences than Ladd's Ad
dition. It was designed, intended and prepared for the very best class of people. This
end will be furthered by- the rigid enforcement of building lines and building restric- ,
tions. Yet, with . all this care, the prices of the lots, all ; larger than 5,000 square feet,
have been made . reasonable, the terms easy and an abstract, showing perfect title, will
accompany each purchase. Special inducements to early home-builders. Call at either
the down town office or the one on the tract. N ''' w . k ;
