Fish, president of all the Stude V baker companies, and Uayden Eamea, 1 mmhI raanuer of all th various ' Btudebaker branches, are In Portland 'to Inspect the branch In this city. Con " 'stderable chaugea ar contemplated In - th local branch because of the vlalt f the head offloers. the details of which . Will not be made public at present '-'"One of the principal things tha local Btudebaker branch will give special at tention to this scaison are tne various ' tine of Btudebaker automobiles that the company la putting on the market. , the city trade will be covered as usual. "but especial efforts are being made by the Btudebakers to reach the farmer trade In gaaollne-drlven vshlclea, espe cially the placing- of the new motor buggy. This branch of the business Is under the personal charge of Mr. Earaea. who ' : for a number of years was a. naval ffleer, but who resigned to go Into the automobile business some 13 yean ago. First Woman Antolet. Mrs. Barnes, by the way, was the "Brat woman to drive an automobile In the world. That was years ago, when but few men and they were experts) knew how to run a motor car. But when Mr. Eames took up the study of the electric automobile his wife at ence qualified a an expert and drove the first machine ever handled by a woman in the world, ' "We can now turn out an automobile buggy for 8&0 that every farmer should pave' said Mr. Eames yesterday. "It has no rubber tires to wear or cut out, and is made on the simplest principles to that almost any farmer or country blacksmith can repair It The time Is coming when Journeymen machinists ' will tour the rural districts to repair automobiles, -owned by the farmer, but - that day Is not here yet Till It cornea ' the best we can do la to turn out ma t chines that are so strong and so slra " pie that they need little expert atten tion, and will run for years just so or dinary common sens Is used to keep ' them oiled and In proper adjustment 1 ; Ones pa ess of poeatttaes. "By turning out 10,060 of these bug ' flea, a year now and 15,000 a year be fore long, all made exactly alike so far - ia their mala and moat expensive carta ' ire concerned, we can deliver an auto , poblle for SS68 that If turned out by the ' cnere hundred would coat $2,000. j It ta Just like a newspaper the first taper off tha press costs as much as the hut 1M0 eoplea So it Is with our ' ' farmer automobile buggy with high ' wheels and ateel tires. It will run 20 nllea aa hour and cost less to keep than .one horse, while doing the work . f four. , "Now the electric track in a city Is , lupposed to be a very heavy, awkward ; loncern, using up most of Its own force k pull itself. Tha fact is that tha klectrio truck can handle a bigger load n a city- street than can a gasoline or I. steam car truck of the same weight, n special cases a gasolma track can e made to handle 72 per cent of the sossibte limit, but these are too frail io last The electric- can be made prac ' Ileal, both for use and cost to handle a 10 per cent load) while steam often links as low as 2? per cent - I know f one outfit who deliver goods by the tld-f&shloned horse-pulled wagons. Thev . have tlt.000 Invested In their , teams and it costs them 127.000 a year , lo deliver goods with them. We can put In electric trucks at a cost of 123. tit and deliver tha wane woods with them for 18,000 a year. That la, by - investing $10,000 in a lump sum that Arm can save (9,000 a year. Pretty - rooa interest on tne money, you see, in . cavor or tne electric truck. ,i;,i,j.t:--anm.t Space Baring- "Now there la another phase of the ., question in tne city between the horse ! and the electrle truck. Tha horse ' hitched to a wagon uses twice the street space that tha wagon would If run by .Its own power. In other words, you can run twice as many automobiles oa ' a street as you can horses and wagona This practically doubles the width of ; four Street at one jump. The horse 1 Is responsible for fully three fourths of the cost of cleaning the streets, be- cause of the manure. The dried manure Is tha chief cause of sickness arising ., from dirty streets, and thus cost a large amount in sprinkling. Of course the streets would have to be cleaned and sprinkled anyway, but not nearly so much as when tha horse Is in tha b. question. . , "Another thing Is this: Tha auto n mobile runs faster than the horse and thua allows more traffic to pass alcer- tain point In a given time than can go by drawn by horses. It Is exactly like s water flowing through a pipe, the faster .:: the water flows the more .water is car ? rled In the same nines. Consider the o street a plpa and the traffic the water and there you have it to a dot ; and all . in favor of the automobile. y Brings Good Boada. "One of the chief needs of this coun-' ! try today Is good roads. The horse can wallow In any old rut, but the auto mobile breeds good roads. Give every farmer aa automobile buggy and you - will have every farmer In favor of good roads at once. v "Our oompany Is about to begin a - campaign of education concerning the automobile of low price for the aver ' age man. The self-driven vehicle has ceased to be the rich man's plaything; - it Is becoming a daily necessity to rich . ; and poor. To educate the general pub " ' f r 1 r .

Michigan may have her Keena Ftts- patrlck, Chicago her Alonso Btagg and Carlisle her Qlen Warner, but right here In Portland there is a man who holds as high a place In his particular branch as any of them. That man is Dan Mur phy, coach, of tha Portland Rowing club, who stays on the coast because ho likes tha coast Dan's aquatic history is an Interest ing one. Nearly 30 years ago he began his rowing, and has kept it up since. He is Just turning 60 years, and despite an lUneas which baa extended over the past six months, feels in . splendid spirits. Dan is going out on the river with the crew today, marking the first actual coaching of the aenior four this season. He is going to keep the men hard at werk until the, Washington races in 'July. Dan stated yesterday that the Port land foar, which la now preparing for the regatta is much faster than the crew which crowded the Nonpareil Boat club of the Harlem river to Its utmost in the national reaatta at Worcester in 1806. This virtually means that Dan thinks his men are the fastest four In the United States. If they shew the class Dan expeots them to show there is every reason to believe that local business men will donate enough to send mi crew to ina regatta in August next Murphy's first rowing race waa In Boston in 18(1, he capturing the Junior championship of the Bhawmut Rowing club. The year following he was) with the Crescent Rowing club. He -Wowed his first professional race at Quincy, Illinois, beating Jim Kennedy In lS8f. After that ha went to Winnipeg. Can ada, and coached the crews of the Win nipeg uoat club xor rive yeara n 1898 hla Winnipeg oarsmen won every regatta In America, and the following year they were sent to the Henley re- Rtta In England. The four experienced tie difficulty In beating the Holland four oared crew in the preliminaries for the Steward cup. In the finals Dan's youngsters went up against the Leandar crew, the cham pions of England for years. After a heartbreaking race from start to fin ish Leander crossed the line a quar ter of a length to the good. It was the greatest race a foreign four had ever put up on the hlstorio Thames course and Murphy. and hla crew were praised everywhere. . ,. Bnocessful Here. Murphy's success with Portland has been Immense. His senior crews have always wen In the northwest and their J hewing in 1S0( waa so good that pub-lo-splrlted citizens sent them east Billy King, Bill Pemberton, Fred Zimmerman and Paul Smldt were the four selected to go. They : were the only oarsmen from the far west and their entry waa a surprise. They beat eVery preliminary event and when the final was run off with the Nonparlel four, the easterners salt up and took notice. The Nonparlels were rowed to a stand still and though they beat the Portland quartet It waa only after the hardest kind of a struggle. Nonparlel crossed the finish line a few feet In advance of the Oregon crew but most of the oheers floated toward the Portland youngsters. Murphy is still teaching tha same stroke that brought victory so many times. The oarsmen do not effect the long, sweeping style, but use a shorter stroke. It is not choppy, however. The men sit upright at the finish of the stroke, never going beyond the perpen dicular. They rely on their arms and shoulders ' to propel tha boat and this lessens the hard strain on the atomaoh, Under the Murphy system the stroke seldom sends the men to stroking faster than II to the minute. The result shows tha Dhlloscobv of tha method and Dan is confident that It will bring victory against Washington during the Rose Festival and during the regatta on Lake wasmngion.)

It may sound rather Queer to hear a member of the old Studebaker wagon company say that the horse should be barred from" the downtown business streets, but such is the fact And it most come sooner or later, the sooner the better. The, automobile is the king of the road in tpie near future." New York Bowlers Wbk, ( UnlU4 Press Leased Wire.) Buffalo, N. Y May 8.

On each of their trips to Portland and 6t Johns when ' they should have shown the greatest strength they have been the weakeat both in the pitching de partment and with the stick.
