In view of the fact that President F. W. Gooding, of Shoshone, Idaho, has announced that he will not be a candidate for re-election, it Is believed that the delegates will insist upon Dr. Wilson accepting the honor when the election comes up. At one time Dr. Wilson was western vice president and for several years he was at the head of the executive committee of the as sociation, and particularly at the time the great land convention at Denver successfully fought the federal land leasing scheme of President Roose velt In 1908. It was Dr. Wilson who directed the convention, although many other lines of industry than that of the woolgrowers were represented and deeply interested Oregon Menln Tleld.

Every Incoming train from now on will bring large numbers There are about 8000 sheep and wool growers In Oregon and It Is believed that a very large percentage of these will attend. At 9 o'clock tomorrow morning the delegates will assemble at headquarters in the Imperial hotel to march In a body, headed by a ttand, to the Armory, where President McKnlght will call the convention to order. The business ses sion will be confined largely to the reading of reports of officers and com mittees, It having been decided to co operate In other features with the na tional association whlrh convenes Wed nesday morning for the balancs of the week.

This convuAlon was to have gone to Baker, but that city graciously resigned in favor of Portland when the national convention selected the- Rose City for the next ; meeting place.

That the present trip of the German steamer Serak to this port will be looked upon in the light of a trial of conditions at the bar, -is the assertion of tha of ficers of the big Kosmos line freighter, which arrived from Tacoma yesterday morning on the first voyage that any of these steamers has ever made to the port. The Serak Is a vessel of 3339 tons net register and when loaded she baa a draft of 26 feet She will load a cargo of wheat here for Balfour, Guthrie A Co., which la destined for Europe and will amount. It Is said, to a little better than 6000 tons and she will call, either at San Francisco for 8600 tons of barley or at pne of the nitrate ports on the west coast for the same amount of fer tilizer to complete her cargo. Bee eld Hex. If It Is found, say the officers, that the steamer has no ' trouble at the bat the Kosmos line will probably send more of their steamers to Portland, as they believe that there is a good field for their trade here.

Grundy, who will ask for opportunity to address the convention oil the tariff question, and this, it Is believed, will precipitate a three cor nered war In which the woolgrowers, the worsted men, makers of cloth and the cardd men, makers of carpets and similar goods, will be involved. The worsted and carded Interests are said to be anxious for the support of grow ers in the contest over tariff revislQn. Effort will be made to harmonise the various Interests on one platform. BRIEF ON CUNNINGHAM COAL CASES FILED BY PINCHOTS; KILL CLAIMS (Continued from Page One.) acted with the definite and sustained Intention of defeating the primary pur pose, and -essential spirit o'f the law the spirit and purpose to prevent mo nopoly and secure competitive develop ment of the nation's resourcos. The law under which patents to these claims are asked Is defective In that It con tains no provisions to prevent combi nation and monopoly after titles are secured from the government. This fact makes it even more imperative to enforce strictly the provisions for bidding agreements to combine made before patents are Issued. Only thus cart monopoly be prevented. Would Have Monopoly. The Cunningham coal claims cover a nearly rectangular area running ! about four miles east and west by two miles north and south That the Cun- ! nlngham claimants. If they secure pa tents, will be in position to establish, in conjunction with J. P. Morgan & Co. and the Guggenheim Exploration com pany, a virtual monopoly of coal pro duction In Alaska, is clear from a con - luamiiuu ui Kiuai wu'mii. ""' exist In Alaska. 1 The Cunningham coal claims are In j a position of peculiar strategic advan - I tage. They dominate the Bering river district. The ease with which a com pany owning these claims could control the whole Bering river coal field has been shown by Mr. Storrs, the engineer of the Morgan-Guggenheim syndicate. He concludes by stating that, If tho 1 j, . n. 1 v,- 1.. nvnuicdie uwncu hid vuiuniiKiinui nuio 2. . J , field. The only other large coal field In AiasKa 01 present importance i in w - Matanuska district, where the coal Is less valuable and much less accessible to tidewater. Furthermore, the Cun ningham claims are the only ones that have gone to final entry and are in ' M1" JT?' generally conceded that practically all of the other locations In Alaska today are fraudulent So strong Is the pre sumption of fraud against them that no claimant outside of the Cunningham group has seen fit to carry his claim beyond the initial step and to pay his final entry fee to the government, or has ventured to repeat the oath made in lils "location" papers, that his claim Is for his own exclusive use. The fact that Indictments have recently been found against several groups of claim ants upon charges of conspiracy to de fraud ihe government makes the open ing of coal properties In Alaska by oth ers than the Cunninghams still more remote. SasJ Development Seeded. The Plnchot brief pleads for prompt development, but against development fox monopoly, and says: , 'The prompt development of the pub lic coal fields of Alaska Is of great Importance. Today defective coal land laws make Alaska a forbidden land to the coal operator. Recent census re turns show that the population of Alas ka has Increased only l.S per cent in the last 10 yeara It cannot be argued that this failure In the development of a territory of such enormous natural wealth is due solely to stagnation in coal mining. The Industries of Alaska have been for years largely In the hands of a great and oppressive monopoly; the Guggenheim syndicate, whtdh haa kept out other capital, throttled competition and held Alaska at a standstill In spite Of Its. vast wealth In minerals, forests, water powers and fisheries. ' . "Coal development in. Alaska la of vital and basic importance, but coal de velopment In the shape of monopoly by the Morgan-Guggenheim Interests would merely strengthen the -power which today holds Alaska In Its para lysing grip. There Is every need thst capital should be encouraged to enter these-fields and dvelop . the coal for the benefit of the people. But this ro suit can only be accomplished by the passage in congress of reasonable and practical laws for the disposal of the coal fields in the interests of the pea pie. Until this is done the present law sneurd heenforeed and the people property protected. It was to prevent just such monopoly as the Cunningham claimants are seeking that' the exlstis Alaskan coal land law was made." -twin screw steamers operate to Chilean ports. ' Should the company decide to send Its steamers Inhere, it will mean that Port land will have a direct steamer commun ication with Mexican, Central and South American porta to Hamburg with a serv ice back the same way. .

The aviators were more listless today than they were yesterday, when no spectacular feats were attempted. About the hangars and in the stands the talk was all of Hoxsey and his tragic death. Many of the aviators, among them Roy Knabenshue, manager of the Wright team; Latham and Curtlss. be lieve that sudden sickness, probably the dreaded "mountain sickness," which sometimes affects aviators who descend too suddenly, was the cause of the ac cident In which Hoxsey met his death. "Mr. lAtham and I have talked over the mountain sickness theory as, the probable cause of 110X868 death," said Glenn Curtiss today. "I myself have ; had B,ght touchtm ot tne allment whlch Afreets so mnnv v1atnr I nnnnt Imagine that the sole cause of the accident was the state of the air, and 1 Bnce talking with Latham I am' in- cllned to accept hls theory as most plausible.

It relieves quickly and certainly brings about a cure, by Us tonic laxative action and therefore is superior to ordinary preparations, which only relieve, and then aggravate by their con stipating effects. One dose is not laxative; but 8 to 10 doses dally create a mild laxative action and it Is said that you can feel the medicine work ing on the lungs, throat and bron chial tubes, giving a grand feeling of freshness and strength to the entire system.
