It ta regarded a a certainty that the liavy department will Bend Lnlted States transports to Portland to receive Vancouver troops destined for the Phll 'innlnaa next month, and In every In stance In the future, without further ex ertion belna- made on the part of local Interests. ' ."it Is getting tiresome to have to go after the power at Washington to over come the ootnmarclsl Influence of Ban Wanclsco every time there Is a bunch of soldiers to be taken from Vancouver o any foreign station." said Tom Rich ardson, manager of the Portland Com mercial club, "when the government knows better than anybody that Ita ves sels have safe entrance and anchorage In the Columbia river, and that they can rome In at any time to get what they Winl ; T7e reoorda and latest soundings of the government s own engineers are ac eessible to the authorities. The war de partment has the Information in Ita owr possession. The government's able en gineers report that the depth of the channel on the Columbia river bar at the time of the last survey In June was Stt feet at low tide, and approximately i:h reel at shoaleat 1 feet high tide at the point. This Is an lncreaae of over the record of last year. , . "The channel Is deepening all the time, There Is no question about that. . all croakers and carolns or rival nar- " bora to the contrarv notwithstanding. The Colombia river entrance la one of the best harbors In the world, and as a fresh, water harbor It has no rival. It Is no more difficult or dangerous than the entrance to the sound through the traits of Fucca. Thla fart la con' .firmed by the opinion of the beat mari ners on the coast. If anyone questions the truth of these statements the official record of commercial movements is easily con sulted to prove each particular. More than It per cent of the entire bualness . of the Pacific northwest Is being done through this port. Foreign shipments In and out or the Columbia river, and especially outbound, are Immense and constantly growing. Oriental shlpmenta are specially prominent, although the coastwise trade Is large and ateadlly In creasing. -With the completion of the north bank line of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern railroads the vol ume of outgoing tonnage from the Co lumbia river harbor will be greatly Increased.

Mr. Dellar has enlarged the stocks of men's clothing and etc.. and besides added one of the most hand some end complete ladles' suit, cloak, akirt, furnlshlnga and notion depart ments In the city. The entire furnish ings and fittings of the house are In a great measure different from any other atore In Portland. Queen-Anno and 14th century effects play a strong part. While the show windows are not entirely new, they are an Innovation to Portland. The store Is ao built that the entire main floor and balcony sell ing depsrtments are exposed to the people on the street. Mr. Oellar says that It Is dona so that the people In passing can look right Into the sto"e and get an Idea of the kind of a stor, nd the else of atocks. Mr. Dellar will no doubt , meet with a full share t.T success which his energy with the record of the past will surely bestow on his new and greater store. lEfcAtfON PUBLIC William Was Absent-Minded.

The Lebanon pvbllo acltool opened yesterday morning under th most favorable circumstances, there were about 00 registered the first day. and the prospects are very favora- Prinevllle ta the destination of an electric railroad that la being construct ed by Portland and eastern capital from Eugene and Springfield, via the He Kentle river. The company haa ao quired right of way for 40 miles up that stream, haa begun construction of its line from teuarene to Springfield, a distance of four miles, and Is about to let the contract for a 140, OOO bridge across the Willamette river at that nolnL Behind the railroad are the Story Bracher Lumber company. A. Welch and associated capitalists. A new railway avstem has been com Dieted at Eugene, and this la to form the nucleus of the electrical development eaatward from the Willamette valley to central ure ion. The project is wen aiong lowara me stage where electric power development on the upper jucKenaie win oe com menced, and when the line from Eu gene to npringneia is compieiea 11 win be pushed on over the mountains. Next year will witness the complete unfold ing of the company's plans, It is said, for an electric line connecting the Wil lamette valley with central Oregon and the Irrigated region In the Deschutes river basin. The Unking of Portland with Eugene via Salem, by electric railroad trans portation, will naturally follow com pletion this fall of the Portland-Salem electric line of the Oregon Electric Railway company. Within the next three years it will be possible, say the railroad prophets, to get on an electric sleeping car at Portland in the after noon and debark at Prineville next morning. The proposed bridge over the Willam ette at Springfield will be about 400 feet long, and will probably be built by Con tractor N. L. Rooney of Eugene. Presi dent Ve,lch returned to Portland today from a trip up the McKenxle river, where he Inapected water power sites filed upon by the company, from which power will be developed to operate trains over the McKenxle river lln. Construction of the dam and canal! for the first plant will be commenced within a few weeks. It is expected to complete the powerhouse nv next spring. Sixteen miles of rails for the McKenxle river line have been pur chased, and will be delivered wltnln the next 0 days at Eugene. The road will be built 16 mllea to Hendricks' ferry during the winter, and the McKenxle river will oe Dringea at inai poini next summer. BOVOB AITS. fOWSIBI looino nr amx.

This oompany Is expanding Just like Portland and It Is ever meeting the requirements of Its numerous patrons. '.Must havc"beri a tprribly crude affair., e.' Several stove-builders took up the burden and assumed the responsibility of making better stoves. They put everything into , their calculations but quality. This was probably a mere oversight but nevertheless it was, fatal, for then came the "Eclipse" Stove company; an association of conscien cious Ohio citizens, who commenced the building of stoves on "quality." Other stove factories smiled. "They can't make quality and still make profits," said they. The "Eclipse" Stove company plugged along, selling a stove now and then, until at last they got the people to talking about them. When I. Gevurtz & Sons were asked (about 15 years ago) which of all stoves do you prefer to handle and to recommend, the head of this great establishment said (without the least hesitancy), give us the "Eclipse." Since that day, we've placed 15,000 "Eclipse" ranges in Portland homes, and those homes are every one settlements . of contentment. lhere are today two hclipse heaters to one of any other manufacture in use among Portland's comfortable homes. The "Eclipse" has in its every part a distinctive, leading feature, and those parts combined make a wonderful masterpiece in stove con $io and up wards "Eclipse" Heaters i aa a xt i t aii FOR WOOD AND FOR COAL. $1.00 A Week IS All (Displaying Twenty Styles).
