Blaney of San Joae, Cal. San Jose, al., Aug. 9. Mrs. Charles D. Blaney of this city, who has been made a member of the Progressive" Na tional committee with Miss June Add -ami, Miss Frances Keller and Miss L&na Qordon was a delegate from California to the Republican National convention. She is considered one of the most ag gressive women In politics in the far west and was looked upon as a staunch Republican. The Portland Chamber of Commerce telegraphed to Senator Burton, chairman of the senate sub-committee on com merce, requesting that action of the Wilson bill dealing with manning Amer ican rrterchant marine vessels be de- frrrl until a committee representing pacific coast shipping Interests will have opportunity to present arguments protesting the bill. The telepram was sent upon sugges tion from President M. II. Robblns Jr. of the San Francisco Chamber of Com merce, which has already forwarded its protest. , The bill la said to provide that VPn request Of any citizen the collector of customs in any port in the states may cause a muster of a crew of any vessel at any time and that In the meantime no clearance Is to be given such vessel. The shipowners hold that such a law would give a tremendous latitude so that anv person could at any time delay the sailing of a vessel and bring on a heavy expense to the owner or oper ators. It Is pointed out that the pro r.nH low mnld be used very effectively In tvine ud vessels in case of troupie between the owners and employes. FEWER FOREST FIRES THAN FOR 20 YEARS The men who travel "the trails In the government forest reserves and who range tho mountains where grows some of the best timber held by Uncle Bam In Oregon, are reporting the smallest fire hazard for at least 20 years. Cooperative effort between the forest service, the forest rire association and the state Is held chiefly rsponsibl for a condition that is expected to prevent the millions of dollars In Iosros of two years 6go. At the same time the rang ers say campers are more careful, in other words, "better educated" to the dangers of leaving campflres unextin guished. These two elements combine to reduce the fire hazard to a minimum. No matter what trail may be fol lowed through the Cascade mountains, posters and placards warning against fir nd care lensness confront one - at every turn. Surycyors at Orcnco.

B. & N. and Southern Pacific companies for handling freight of fhe Hill roads on east aide tracks of the Harriman system. The mayor had previously told the railroad officials that he would expect them to come to an agreemenWy 10 o'clock this morning. Until some agree ment is reached the mayor and some of the councilmen are disposed to withhold further consideration of franchises now being sought by the railroads concerned. However, Superintendent D. W. Camp bell. Of the SoutJienT-Pacific told the mayor today that he has a force of 20 clerktcornjilllng the costs of switchtng cars and that the data thus compiled will not be ready for submission' till to morrow.
