, Blrex Improvement.
, "This cannot be handled properly
: through private docks, which may ab-
sorb the advantage of water transpor
tation by excessive charges, or at grain
and cement docks, with only a few
docks available for the discharge of
miscellaneous cargoes.
"At the same time there must come
the Improvement of the rivers. The
' completion of the Celilo canal, of tnk
upper Columbia and the Snake should
all be given consideration. These will
enable Portland to ship goods to the In
land centers, up to Lewlston and aa
far even as the Canadian border. If
the work suggested by the Canadian
government for improving the upper Co
lumbia is taken up In earnest and car-
; rled through.
' "The Panama canal will enable the
shipment of goods to Portland for the
Atlantlo ports at low cost, doing away
with the costly trans-shipment at the
Isthmus. Many classes- of goods can
not be shipped at all by reason of the
double handling across the isthmus, but
could be profitably handled on direct
shipment from the Atlantic seaboard to
Portland. With docks and river im
provement, Portland will then be In po
sition to ship goods into the interior
at figures that will force the railroad
distributive rates to low figures.
Good Advice Given.
"Without moving In this direction,
v. s which should be accompanied by ln-
creased manufacturing through the low
cost of transportation of raw material,
'Portland will find herself limited to
the Tillamook country, the Willamette
valley and a restricted district close at
, J hand.
y "Commissioner Lane In his decision
. in the Rene case offered some good ad
vice, to the coast cities. He suggests
uiey mane iuii use oi water transporta

. docks and to promote Improvement of
the rivers and thus take advantage of

rate case should be fought through to

WIFE DEDICATED TO
SUFFRAGETTE CAUSE

Mr. and Mrs. Lee de Forest, who are
suing each other for divorce.
San Francisco. July 26. Too much
suffragette mother-in-law Is the plaint
of Lee De Forest, wireless telegraph
.inventor, in his counter-suit for abso
lute divorce from his wife, Nora Blutch
De Forest. Mrs. De Forest Is the daugh
ter of Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blutch, the
militant suffragette and granddaughter
of Elisabeth Cady Stanton.
De Forest declares that before the
birth of his daughter his wife deserted
him to live with her mother. Soon after
the child's birth Mrs. Blutch offered
him $5000 if he would release all rlfrhts
and Interests In It. Since that the In
ventor says he has been Informed that
his mother-in-law dedicated his wife to
the cause, of suffrage and that he was
no longer to be considered a member
of the family. De Forest says he was
considered merely a temporary biolog
ical factor in the life of his wife.

work in the New York factory where
she Is employed, despite the means at
her command. She is an ardent auf.

cent would be a substantial help, but
would be only a partial solution of the
difficulty. The case Is now standing on
a petition for rehearing.
"One result of the decision will un
doubted! v be the hlllMino- tin nf imallsr
jobbing centers In eastern Oregon. The
oenem oi reaucea rates will not be
all harvested by Spokane by any means,
for Walla Walla. I.ewlstnn Ponrilatnn
and Bakei will get the same rates. Spo
kane has the advantage of some low dis
tributive rates, and is the railroad cen
ter. "Lewlston should also be a great
gainer, with Its Increasing facilities for
distribution by water and rail. With
the Improvement of the Snake river and
the Columbia, Portland will be placed
in closer touch with the Lewlston dis
tributing center.
"With the Imperfect water transpor
tation now available, the rate from
Portland tcA Lewlston Is 90 cents,
against a rail rate of 11.35.
Waterway Development.
Emphasizing the need for waterway
development as the keynote to the situ
ation, Mr. Anderson says that Kansas
City will possess immediate advantage
over St. Louis In the fight for the west
ern trade. This may be met to some ex
tent by improvement of the Missouri
river. The government Is taking the
nags from the river and Kansas City
has raised $1,000,000 for equipping a
steamboat line to ply on the Missouri,
the primary object of Kansas City being
the opening of water transportation to
the Gulf of Mexico by connection with
a Mississippi river line at St. Louis.
Bv the. same mAthnri nf a-ofur .,
portatlon, says Mr. Anderson, New York
and the Buffalo territory may be able
to compete by shipping through the
great lakes to Duluth, from which point
they will be able to get the terminal
rate to the lntermountaln country and
overcome the 25 and 15 per cent dif
ferential put Into effect by the Inter
state commerce commission.
S. WING IS EXPELlED
II
Stephen Wing, who has been making
charges of graft against officials of
local branch No. 1 of the Socialist party
from the street corners, was called to
time last night at a meeting of the
local and expelled Tor treason against
the association. He also charged the
organization with running gambling
games and disreputable and disorderly
dances.
The members of the association take
his accusations largely as a Joke, for
Wing has been a member of the execu
tive and auditing committees, which
have charge of the financial affairs of
the local, for the past year. He was
also very much Interested In the danc
ing parties given by the association,
frequently bringing his step-daughter,
suggesting that a new floor be laid and
offering to rent the hall and take charge
of the dances himself, it Is said. As
for gambling, no cards or games of any
nature have been allowed In the rooms
of the local sjnee last summer, say the
I (socialists.
, Wing, say members of the party, once
tried to break un tv rnunin ,..i.
but was expelled from that In a manner
similar to the present Incident.
Wing made his accusations In the de
fense of Louis 11. Jenkins, who was ex
pelled from the local last week for de
claring he would rive the police all the
assistance he could In enforcing the
city ordinances. ,"lt has been stated
that Jenkins was expelled fof declaring
that he would uphold the laws, which
Is untrue," aid Secretary U P. Peter
son, "it was because he declared that
he would assist the police against the
local. We will take Wing's expulsion
up with the state and national organiza
tions and have him expelled 1 rpm them."

temporary auditorium on the Kamm
tract near the city barn, ' '.'
The auditorium Will be Used by the
Portland General Ministerial union In
connection with a great Interdenomina
tional revival to be conducted by Gypsy
Smith, next November. ' The auditorium
will house 10,000 and will be torn down
as soon as a permanent city auditorium
is built.
The Portland General Ministerial union
has been negotiating for a number of
years with the renowned evangelist, but
Gypsy Smith .would not consent to ap
pear In Portland until he had been 'as
sured that an auditorium capable tf
accommodating 10.0JJ people waa
promised him. The action of the coun- '
cil will enable the local ministers to '
secure the services of Mr. Smith.
Clyde Objects o Ordiuanoe, !
Councilman Clyde objected to the
passage of an ordinance granting to the
Mount Hood Railway & Power company
a revocable permit to connect a line
from the city limits with the line of
the Portland Railway, Light & Power '
company at the Intersection of East ,
Eightieth street and Villa avenue. The
ordinance was referred to the street
committee.
"The passage of that ordinance would
amount to a franchise in the guise of a
special permit," said Councilman Clyde,
"and I am opposed to giving away
public streets without compensation,
even temporarily."
The street committee will Invite the
residents of the city Interested In the
Mount Hood extension to appear before
it and give their views on the subject.
Aids City Officials. .
A curative ordinance providing for
the payment of the salaries of a num
ber of city officials waa passed. This
will enable- City Engineer Tom Hurl
burt. Chief of Police E. A. glover. Fire
Chief Laudenklos and Captain of Police
Joseph Keller to retain their present
positions and still retain their eligibil
ity under the civil servce rules to re
turn to subordinate positions In case the ;
wiuiiuaniuri Kuvernmeni cnaner goes
into effect next January.
An ordinance providing that heavy j
vehicles be equipped with hard rubber I
wheel tires was passed. The purpose
of the measure is to .prevent the de
struction of newly Improved streets and
the decking of bridges, under the heavy
pressure of steel spiked wheels of
traction engines and similar vehicles.
An ordinance increasing the number
of saloon licenses that may be Issued
from 413 to 419, waa passed. This
gives the council the power to give back
the license it revoked several weeks
ago because a secret stairway was
found leading from a saloon on Fourth
street to a room overhead. In which
women were served with liquor. The
license was held by the Gambrinus
brewery under power of attorney.
