in this city: lnaiead they are con
stantly suppressed.

tThere is an aosolute lack of unity
of purpose and too much complacen.y
and a dee&lly inertia which can only I
be overcome by. young blood and new
Wood' ;
abject Discussed Zs Shipping.
- Speaking before the Brotherhood of
the First Congregational church last
night on the question of Portlands
shipping problem, Joseph N. Teal gave
the foregoing as c few, and the prin
cipal, reasons why this city has prac
tically gone to pieces as a seaport.
Mr. Teal began by showing the im
mense 'Increase in recent years of Sc
at tie's ocean-going commerce and the
constant shrinking, till now it is al
most negligible in comparison with
that of the northern port, of that of
Portland. Insisting as a beginning
that Portland has far and away tho
best of any other seaport on the Pa
clflc in point of location, Mr. Tea
' then proceeded to declare in plain Krtto-
llsh that the people of Portland are
to blame themselves for not taking
advantage of their unparalleled oi
importunity.
. Navigation Obstacle Xemoved.
i i rue, ne nam, up till a year and a
half or so, big ocean liners could not
'safely get into the Columbia, despite
anything that was said Or believe!
to the contrary. But this natural ob-
stscle is now gone and the people are
till sitting back and waiting for
'.Providence to make good for them.
lie declared that 60 energetic yoo.ig
. men. imbued with a spirit of
i absolute and complete loyalty to Po;t
. land, "cotild revolutionise this town in
a year." The first essential, he in
- Msted, would be for them to declare
their independence of the 60' or 19'j
non-progressive men who now hold
lbe city in bondage.
. The speaker declared that Sacra
mento, under the ruling of the Inter
state Commerce commission that water
- tompetltion must be real and not mere
ly potential, and about 160 other cities,
v have already lost terminal 'freight
rates, and he warned that a similar sit
uation may develop as to Portland If
this city does not wake up.
Colombia Slver Zs Useful.
"I still hope to see the time come,"
.declared Mr. Teal, "when the Colum
bia river will serve some other pur
pose than to be pictured in railroad
folders and being used for tourists ;o
" look at."

One often hears this said of a well-gowned woman:
It is STYLE that makes one woman stand out above
all others, regardless of her years she is the distin
guished figure in-the scene.
Redfern Corsets
give that rare quality distinction to their wearers,
in whatever walk of life they happen to be. If you
have neglected your figure, it may take a little time
but your figure will quickly respond to the modeling
influence of a "Redfern."
