Will Outline His Notion of Pro
1 gressive Policy; Something
for Everybody.
Tor ths first time in ths history of
Portland, regular steamship lino will
ply between this port and San' riego.
Beginning Wednesday, August 24, ,.'r.
regular weekly service will be main
tained between here and the southern'
California port- , The steamer Roanoke
will Inaugurate the service, sailing at 5
o'clock In tha evening.
Realizing that there is a good field
for the operation of passenger steamers
as far south as San Diego, Charles P.
Doe, president and general manager ol
the North Paeiflo Steamship company
who arrived in the city Saturday morn-
. log from a trip to the cast, has decided
to extend the run. of the steamships
Roanoke and George TV. 'Elder to that
port' ' .
Heretofore the steamers of that Una
have operated only as far south as San
Pedro, but the Increasing' demand for an
all-water routs- between the Rose- City
and San Diego, both for passengers and
freight, has been the cause which has
decided the North Paeiflo to axtetid
their line. . . ;
JTsw Service Popular. .
Under existing conditions, freight in
tended for cither of the two ports' has
foad to be routed either by rail or by
Bteamer to San Francisco or San Pedro
where it had to be transshipped, a proc
ess that consumed a great deal of time
and was expensive as well. Pasaengeri
also were put to a large amount, of
trouble in transferring from one steam
er to another, and all things considered
a through steamer service will becom
very popular.
At the present time the steamers of
this line sail from Portland and San
Pedro once .a week, stopping at San
Francisco on .the north and southbound
voyages. The change in the service, it
Is said, will not mako any difference in
me sailing aates here, the steamer,
leaving once a week as before, as they
will do also at the other end of the run;
but at 6an Francisco and Ban Pedro
tney will nave Jess time, in order t
meet the weekly schedule. And it is
said that they will not touch at Eureka
as has been the case on some occasion!

k The first class fare on the steamers
to San Pedro la f 26, and it was stated
this morning-that not more than $3
would. De added for the fare to San
Diego, The intermediate and steerage
lares to San, Pedro are 2 and 112. re
p?ctively, and the increase to the port
mruier soum wui oe proportionate.
Owing to tho fact that the comDanv'i
steamer F. A. KUburn, which operated
wiwwn tan rrancisoo and Eureka
burned up this morning in San Fran
cisco bay, it la probable thai the steam
er Santa Clara will be placed on tht
run, as she Is the reserve boat It has
, not t.een decided definitely, however, anc
t ia muugns possioie tnat the steamer
Kurelta may be placed temporarily or
that run, ihich would leave the Port-land-Eureka
run without a steamer.

: - When th kidneys are sick they
give unmistakably, warnings that
should not be ignored. By examining
the urine and treating the kidneys
upon, the first sign of disorder, many
days of suffering may be saved. Sick
kidneyr expel a dark, ill-smelling
urine, , full of "brickdust" sediment
and painful in passage. Sluggish kid
neys cause a dull pain in the small . of
the back, headathes, ; dizzy spells,
tired, languid feelings and .frequent
rheumatic twinges.
Doan s Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only; they cure 'sick kidneys,
and rid the blood of uric poison. If
you suffer from any of the above
symptoms you can use no better rem
edy. Portland people recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills. -
