London, Aug. 16. Patrick Cudahy, who la here for a six weeks' rest, in speaking ,today on business conditions In America said: "The chief effect of the tariff bill '-n our business will be to let in a consid erable quantity of beef from South America. We welcome this because we are rapidly approaching a condition f- when we will be compelled to Import 2, beef. The day of unlimited free pas tures Is gone. Farmers are now find ing It expensive business to raise beef and prices- are, going up as a conse quence. , r ' , There1 fnay be,, a few hogs coming from Southern Canada' but I do not an ticipate that this will have any effect on the market.. I belive that the diffi culties caused by the tariff can be ad justed. What Is needed most is the cre ation of an independent tariff commis sion which will Investigate the whole matter and take It out of politics. That would be the best, way to kill lobbying. Our country Just now Is cursed by pol iticians. I believe there is goda times aaead. Although the corn crop Is not very good, the wheat crop la excellent and ought to boost business."

Children as a rule like to crowd down to the front of the show and the parent sees no objection. The nearer the child is to the front, the worse the effect on the immature eye. As many parents accompany their children. to these shows let them force th'e children to take . back seat's, 30 or 40 feet hack, if possible. It would be even a .better idea if the management of these shows would prescribe a lirte" beyond which the child v' -would, not be allowed to sit, for , a Nation of defective eyes may be expected if something isn t done along this line of reform.

OF GLYMN-SULZER , Continued From Page One. (Py the Intcrnitloiml Nrwi Prtre. Sun Francisco, Aug. 1. That fully a ficoro or Japanese sampans have been successfully navigated across the Pa rt fie within the past few years and that hundreds of Aslirtlcs have adopted this nazaroous memod or evading the vig il ante of Uncle Sam's Immigration of ficials, was learned today when the 15 Japanese captured while landing from a .small Junk, made a confession while waiting for deportation at Angel Island. During the recital of the e-?nta of the unusual voyage across , the 6000 miles of open sea between the coast of Japan and the shores of Mendocino, it developed that four of the Japanese have been in this country before and speak Knglish as fluently as many of 'our citi zens. The sampan was purchased at Yoko hama for 226. An additional 1 100 was spent for supplies, and the 16 Japanese set sail for the United States. The passage was accomplished in (5 days and was replete with exciting events. Three severe-storms were encountered and at times the small craft was nearly swamped by the huge seas. During eight days of the voyage every Japan ese on board was kept busy baling the water as fast as possible. - It was the Intention of the Japanese in case they had not boon detected to fill the boat with stones, bore a hole In the .bottom andtj sink the craft so that no trace would be discovered.

Potts in his fight to be restored to the active list of the navy at advanced rank. Captain .Potts was retired by the so called "plucking" board.

Commission Offers Quarter-of Entire Amount to Small Bid ders; First Time in History. In a formal advertisement the public docks commission officially announces today Us intention to give small In vestors of Portland a chance to buy the dock bonds of the city. Two blocks of bonds are offered," one of $250,000 to be Issued in denomina tions of $100 and $500 for the benefit of local investors; the other block Con sisting of $750,000 offered in $1000 de nominations. The entire Issue runs for SO years' and pays Interest at the rate of five per cent. It is expected that the $750,000 will be sold In the usual way to bond dealers. But It is hoped that the people of Portland -will take 4ip the entire $250, 000 Issue in small lots. This Is the first offering; of bonds approaching a popular bond sale in the history of Portland. Heretofore Bold In Lamp, Hitherto when bonds have been ad vertised for sals they have been sold In a lump to the highest responsible bidder. ' This infant that the cost Was more , man local investors cared to Anyone who wants a dock bond of ine city may write a letter to the dock commission making a bid- for it, and enclosing a certified ohook for - five pur cent or me amount of the bid, this being required py law; The letter might iu suiiiBuniig jute mis: ., jj-reaencK w. Mulkey, chairman of me puouo docks commission, Portland, Oregon. Dear Sir: Enclosed please find certified check ' for -which is rive per cent of my bid for dock bonds of the city of Portland, in de nominations ' of each. (Speolfy whether $100 or $500 denominations.) Tours sincerely More Than Par Expected. It is considered likely that the five per cent, 80-year bonds will bring a price slightly above par. 'The condition of the bond market at the time the bids are opened will largely Influence tne bids, it is thought. The bids for both Issues of publlo dock bonds are to be opened September 4. Delivery of the $750,000 issue will be made September 16, and delivery of the $250,000-issue on October 1. Bidders are required to pay accrued interest be tween the date of the opening qf the bids and their delivery. The commission of publlo docks -would be glad to sell the $250,000 Issus in $100 denominations at par to whoever came to buy, but the charter Of the city and the act creating the commission makes this impossible. Chairman Mulkey ot the "dock com mission says that aJeady much public Interest has been manifested in the pop ular bond sale, and a good many bids are expected. It is thought that fra ternal orders not accustomed to invest through bond brokers will be Interested in the opportunity to buy comparatively small lota of dock bonds on direct bids. YES, OUR ONLY PURE E IS NOW 000.11 IN So California Growers Tell Congress While Protesting 1 Against Brandy Tax, ; Washington. D. O, Aug. 16. Callfor nla's side of the sweet wine controversy was presented to the senate finance committee in an hour's argument this morning by M. F. Tarpey, representing the grape growing interests. Additional half hour argument will be made Mon day by Theodore A. Bell. rM. Tarpey protested against the leg islation, saying that it would drive tlai only pure wine made in the United States out of the market, leaving 'th field to the eastern market The whole course jpf a series of ques, tlons followed by members of the sen ate committee Indicates that some form of tax will be levied on the wine, In dustry in order to raise revenue, y As uiieiuKiiy irauiaa, uie oroerene amenu ment would have placed the whole tax burden of $7,000,000 on CaUforhia:-,, With the showing made by the Cali fornia representatives, the sentiment of the senate committee appears to be changing into a wish to' distribute tho tov fTOf all rha nrlnoo m a A In Ua TT n U u V t v Ha VJ Y itanuw 41 ViiV Wills.1" : ea States, wtuie under this arcane-. ment California will still bear tha heav iest uurtjBii, iiiq iiugieruuia uunuiuoit amendment will be avoided. v: there, and that there Is a real question as' to who is governor. Until some of the questions already raised, like the validity of Glynn's sig nature on bank checks and the requi sition papers are made the subject of a 'ruling, the business of the state will be attended with much confusion, If Indeed it can be transacted at all. Mr. , Siilzer expected to leave this morning for Cooperstown with his wife, but partly because of her illness and partly because of his fear that he would be dispossessed In the absence, he de cided to remain. He was much more cheerful today. Plainly he Is encour aged by the failure of Mr, Glynn to at tempt to; oust him by force. He has had a great number of telegrams bid ding him hold the fort and 1n these he reads a popular belief In him, which he thinks will quite overshadow the action of the assembly. If it comes to a. final shown down before the high court of Impeachment. Glynn Befnses Baiter's letter. Sulzer, after conferring with his at torneys this morning, gave out a letter which he had dispatched to Mr. Glynn, but whidb the latter did not know any thing about until he read It in his own paper, as ha refused to for his office. The letter stated that the writer rer gretted he could not have Mr. Glynn's help in straightening out the situation. Sulzer, who . never doubts his own ability to make friends, is worried be cause his lawyers will not allow him to go out and attack Murphy openly. He knows that the public, sentiment Is against Tammany Hall and feels that If It can be effectively aroused be will never come to trial. This Is altogether apart from the plan of his lawyers for his defense. To newspapermen to whom Mr. Sulzer talks he says: Calls Charges Unimportant. 'The public is not interested In these charges. They amount to nothlnp. Go see John Hennessey and he will give you a story so much bigger than all this that you will have to print it. We will have all these people Indicted in a little while and then you will see Just how little this attack on me counts." Here is one of the few of the 250 tele grams the governor gave out today: "Amsterdam, N. T Aug. IS, 1918. Honorable William Sulzer, Executive Of fice, Albany N. T. The rank and file of the people are expressing themselves in your-favor and wish me to' express to you to stick tiRht (Slgend) "THERON AKIN, '"Member of Congress." Glynn to Be Xeoognlsed. The legislature will officially recog nize Acting Governor Glynn, on conyen lng Tuesday night. It will be necessary to have a message cnlling for tho pas sage of a supply bill in order to vali date such action at an extraordinary session. Sulzer has hitherto refused to Issue such a message and has thus kept the legislature In continued session, as no money can be had for the expenses, of the session until this bill can be passed. The Republican leaders in the assem bly, who are strongly pr.o-SuIzer, will flghtalnst receiving a message from Glynn, but the Democrats have shown that they havV a majority and tho bill will be passed.
