; Tbs Tort Townssnd Commercial club
V,ss nt to rortlsnd a call for help. In
an peri let tr to ths business men of
Portland tha commercial club of port
J"ownsen1 asks that ths port bs Investi
gated as Portland's natural Alaskan out
let "
"In view of the extraordinary awak
ening all over the Olympic peninsula, we
feel confident that the time la ripe for
. general demand that the Northern
J'aclflc Railway company complete the
port . Townsend . southern extension,"
mids the letter to the Tortlnnd business
men.
"fllngle handed we can ope for prac
tically nothing-; any pressure thla city
rould brlnir in hear would be more than
offset by the Inluenoe of Seattle. Manu
facturer, wholesalers and retailers
there fully realize that, under present
transportation t Conditions, practically
every dollar of' Olymplo peninsula busi
ness Is compelled to go to' Seattle.
"This " business has grown tremen
dously during- the past two years.' Bank
deposits here touched almost the mil
lion dollar mark at the recent call of
the comptroller. Forts Flagler, Caey
and.Worden surrounding Port Towns
end now have a payroll of 10,000 per
month, which comes regardless of
weather, business , or labor conditions.
Several fine valleys tributary to Port
Towneend are rapidly filling ..with set
tlers and, each year, their consumption
of foodstuff, clothing and general mer
chandise will be greater and greater. It
practically rests with Portland to say
whether or not Keettle shall continue
to skim this cream.
"Hurely every shipper In your city
Is aware of the unfair discrimination at
Seattle against Portland merchandise
and that Portland shipments are load
ed after all others If there Is still room
on the northbound boats. Just ai long
as a sack of Portland flour or wheat
or a pound of Portland merchandise
routes via Seattle harbor will such dis
crimination continue.
"Portland, Townsend Bay Is Port
land's natural Alaakan outlet, and
Alaska business Is growing tremendous
ly. Railway rates from Portland to
Port Townsend would1 doubtless be the
same as from. Portland to Seattle, the
dlatanoe In rail miles being practically
the same.
"We feel that the completion of the
Tort Townaend Fouthern I vital to both
your olty and ours,- that the enormou
volume of business from this section
would ff exceed all eipectatlons."

The world hss Its crises. Creation,
the flood, falling of the Tower of Babel,
advent of Christ, fall of the Roman em
pire, and the discovery of America aro
some of the world's prises. Life als6 has
Its crises. The text pictures to us the
crisis in the life of Bclshatzer, king of
Chaldeans. He had been placed -at the
head of a world power, but Instead of
adapting himself to his responsibilities,
he was given over to drunkenness, revel
ry and profaning the sacred vessel of
God. As a result, ha was weighed in the
balance of divine Justice and found
wanting too light."
Bo declared Itev. C. I Williams, of
the First United Brethren church, yes
terday In his sermon on the text, "Tekel,
thou art weighed In the balances and
art found wanting."
'We are wont to look to the distant
future for the great day of Judgment;
but every day Is a Judgment day. Every
day we are weighed In the) balances of
our Judgments, the balances of the pin
Ions of men and In the balances of Al
mighty Ood.
"False balances and weights in the
present commercial world are commo.i
customs of felony. But no more com
mon than the employing of false bal
ances in the Judging of our moral stand
ing. We weigh ourselves in the false
balances of comparative excellencies,
and find that we may be as good, or even !
bettor, than some we know. Or we are
weighed In tho balances of our own opin
ions, as the limn who went to the wed
ding without the proper nrh; the five
foolish virgins, or tho proud Tharlsec,
who boasted of his supposed virtues. Or
we may Weigh ourselves in the balance
of the opinions of men snd find that
there are always some who speak well
of us, no matter what our standing may
bo." Hut thee are all false scales. , Tin
only true balance la Divine Justice, end
lie places opposite to us" in that balance
His written word, by which every man
hall be and la being Judged."

equipped with a cutting blade : that
gathers the vlnea together In bundles
