That this is the time for Portland to make a strike for public
docks and to declare itself independent of the iron rule of Ilrrinian
is the prevailing opinion among shippers and those interested in in
dependent ship companies. Harriman owns nearly every dock in
Portland. The city has $.r)00,0()0 for public docks. And the port is
now scarcely able to handle the shipping that is coming to the
harbor.
Harbor Master Speier will recommend to the council that the
west channel, between Swan island and the mainland, which was
formerly the main channel of the Willamette, be reopened, that
the shallow places in the channel be dredger! out so as to eive a

"Portland has lt within her power
to do what Oakland, Oal Is doing,"
said Captain Speier yesterday. "Oak
land for years was bound hand and
foot by th- railroads, so far as her
waterfront was concerned. They ownej
every duck and every foot of water
front and there seemed to be no way
of getting out of their clutches. For
tune favored them however, and the
city was smart enough to sijuat on tho
made pirn! that was formed in front of
tho railroad docks. Then they began
to secure possession of the docks them
selves by condemnation proceedings and
they are now in a position to build
what public docks they please and rent
the remainder of the,' waterfront prop
erty to the railroads or other private
corporations.
Oakland' Plana.
"The Oakland chamber of commerae
has secured a fanioufl engineering: ex
pert to prepare plans ror the improve
m'ont of its waterfront, recognizing tho
great importance of making the harbor
attractivto roreign snipping. Me nna
submitted four plana providing for re
claiming the tide flats, constructing
bulkhead concrete docks and a 16,000
foot concrete wall.
"If such improvements are of Im
portance to Oakland, they are worthy
the consideration of Portland. ThM
city now finds Itself crowded so far as
Its shipping racinties are concerned.
There won't be room enough to ac
commodate the ships bound for this
port for the fall trade unless we can
dredge out the lower harbor and make
a larger ship basin Immediately. The
dockage trouble is an oia one
"Exorbitant rates and discrimination shoals
on the part of the Mirrtmnn people
make the construction of a system of
city docks highly desirable. in my
opinion the land north of the docks of
tho North Pacific Lumber company
running down river to a point below
Guild's lake, should be acquired by the
city lmmeiliuU;iy. Then in conjunction
with tne Port of Portland and the Uni
ted States government engineers the
work of dredging the west channel
could he begun without anv further de
lay. "When the government closed tho
entrance to the west channel with Its
rlpnipping it made the east channel,
which is long and crooked, the only
one for large vessels. The construc
tion of the new Portland & Seattle
bridge above St. Johns makes the re
turn to the original channel doobly
desirable. The west channel gives a
straight entrance to the draw of the
new bridge and will: do awav with tho
present necessity of large steamers re
quiring towboafs to get them up and
down the river. ,-f
Ideal Location.
"The made land, constructed wltMtho
dredglngs from the river, will give the
city ine most iueai location ror its new
docks. Rail and ships can meet here
with the greatest ease to both and not
oply will largo steamers and sailing
ships bo saved the necessity of coining
up into the upper harbor and passing
through tho bridges but It will h
equally convenient and accessible for
tne river tioats.

A new title and abstract company
has been organized with strong
backing and a paid up capital of
1250, 000 to succeed to the plant
and business of the old Title Guar
antee & Trust company and the
Security Abstract & Trust cojnpany.
The new company will be known as
the Security Title & Trust company.
It will occupy quarters In the north
west corner of the Chamber of Com
merce building, now occupied by the
Security Abstract & Trust company.
Articles of incorporation were
filed yesterday afternoon, and the
company will begin business imme
diately upon completion of extensive
remodeling of the latter company's
offices in the Chamber Of Commerce
building. The Incorporators are:
William M. Ladd, Earl C. Bronaugh,
John P. Daly, W. B. Thomas, R. S."
Howard Jr., P. P. Dabney nd J. L.
Hartman. Final organtzalon and
election of 6f fleers has not yet taken
place.
The purpose of the corporation Is to
acquire abstract plants, to prepare ab
stract books, to examine public records.
to prepare statements of any matter
of record, including abstracts and cer
tificates of title, to issue nil kinds of
contracts and reports affecting titles Id
real estate, to act as a general and spe
cial agent or trustee.
The new company Is practically a
consolidation of the two extensive
plants of the Security Abstract & Trust
company and the' old Title Guarantee
& Trust company. The combined plants
will form a very large concern. TheU
records and emiinment eomnrlse- nrob-
ably the largest establishment' of tha
kind on the Pacific coast.
The business of the old Title Guar
antee & Trust company when confined
to an abstract business occupied tho
west rooms on the ground floor of the
Chamber of Commerce building, and
now goes back to the same location.
The plant was one of the' most extensive
Ih the west, and has been kept Intact
and In operation under the receivership.
The new company is enlarging Its .
vault and room and floor space In tho
Chamber of Commerce building, where
the abstracting plants will be consol- '
idated. The taking over of the old
plant of the Title Guarantee Trust ,
company Is regarded as the best solu
tion of the question of liquidation of
that company's business. Continued un
der the old name and auspices lt would
have been handicapped. The plant was
too valuable to be sacrificed In a
sale, and its business will be very Im
portant to the new corporation.
