FAVORS 3LULTN0MA1I
MAN FOR CONGRESS
Portland. April II To the Editor of
1 he journal i wian to say a word in
favor of electing a Multnomah man to
congress. I believe I know something
of the Importance of river improve
ment I nave been a shipbuilder for
JS years and have built over 20 steam
er" at Portland for Alaskan waters be
side others for Mexico and other coun
tries. I know George Shepherd will be
able to do some good If we send him to
congress by reason of his experience
In marine matters.
I have noticed with regret that when
the public starts to bund a boat or have
some nubile Improvement connected
with the water, often times the entire
commission la composed of men with
no knowledge of the work. We now
have a chance to send a man to con
gress who understands what we need,
so let us send him there.
JOSEPH 8UPPLE.
NAME POLICE CHIEF
TUESDAY PERHAPS
Candidates for appointment to the po
sition of chief of police and city engi
neer of St. Johns are still on the anx
ious seat, as Mayor J4. W. Brlee, chosen
to fill the position of chief executive
at the recent election, has not indicated
to whom the plums will fall.
The new city government has already
been Organised and the next regular
meeting of the council will be held next
Tuesday evening. It la possible at that
time that Mayor Brtce will announce
his appointments and It Is likely a
warm fight will develop, as certain
councilman may not care to Indorse the
appointees of the mayor.

New York. Anrtl 17. Dr. Charles
Henry Parkhurst was 16 years old to
day and was rlnded of the anniver
sary by the receiot of numerous letters
and messares of congratulation. Com
missioner Bingham of the police de
partment probably was not among the
senders of these felicitous greetings, for
Dr. Parkhurst recently Incurred tne Ire
of the commissioner by publicly stating
that conditions In the metropolis at the
f resent tlm were, , if anything, worse
han In the days of the "best chief,"
Devery.
The eminent rresoyterian divine ana
reformer, who gained fame by his pic
turesque crusades in the red-light dis
trict that ultimately , resulted in the
famous Lexow investigation, was born
and received his education at Amherst
college. Later he studied theology In
Germany, and upon his return to the
United States was an Instructor for a
time in the Wllllston seminary. For 28
years he has been the pastor or rne
Madison Square Presbyterian church In
this city, and for more than half of
that time he has been president of the
Society for the Prevention of Crime.

Mr. Ladd Contradicts
False Rumor
rHE rumor circulating to the effect
that lots in Ladcf s Addition were be
ing sold only under a riinety-nine-year
lease is entirely untrue. There is not and
never has been the slightest foundation for
the report
We have never in the past entertained
such a scheme, nor will we consider any
proposition to lease lots in Ladd's Addition.
A full Warranty Deed, as well as a com
plete abstract, is given to the purchaser of
every lot
Lots can be purchased on the install
ment plan, with easy payments and inter
est at six per cent
Every deed will convey an absolute title,
with no restrictions or reservations, except
ing only those Building Restrictions required
to insure the best class of buildings.
