Tuesday the Last Day In which we will give 1 per cent to this fund The Peoples Warehouse Where it Pays to Trade FOB 0. 1 & H. TRAFFIC MANAGERS ARE TO MEET IN PORTLAND. Question of Joint Tickets via Port land to tlte Souml and Other Points Not in Harriman Territory to Be Dhcussed Efforts to Be Made to Fix Up Joint Ticket Arrangement. Regarding the opening of the Puget sound gateway to O. R. & N. and Union Pacific passenger traffic, the Oregon Dally Journal says: Conferences will be held between J. C. Stubbs. traffic director of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific. J. M. Hannaford and J. G. Wood worth, traffic chiefs of the Hill lines, for the purpose of considering terms on which the Portland gateway and other gateways may be opened to Joint routing by these lines on transconti nental business. The opening of the Portland gate way is not a local question, but In volves the handling of passenger traf fic through the gateways of Butte. Spokane, Wallula and other point, and also also the division of revenues from through tickets over the north ern lines and the Southern Pacific on business between St. Paul and San Francisco via Portland. "These matters will be taken up an 1 settled by the heads of the traffic de partments." said A. D. Charlton, assis tant general passenger agent of the Northern Pacific, when asked for the version of the northern lines as to the closing or opening of the Portland gateway. Portland Is today In the same position it always was as to tourist business, and that everybody who wants to come to Portland can come at the same expense a9 former ly. There is no bar to their visiting Portland, and the only reason that as large a number Is not coming here this month as were in evidence last March is that the travel Is much ghtar this spring. 'The travel does not exist, and of course It does not come to Portland. This year's colonist movement is not starting as early as It did last year. We expect the business to move later on, but It is not moving now on any of the railroads, and this is the reason that Portland is not getting as much travel as It got last spring. Statement of O. R & and Union Pacific officials are to the effect that the travel Is being kept away from Portland by the refusal of the North ern Pacific to permit the O. R. & N. company to absorb the local fares be tween Portland and the sound on ticket sold from Union Pacific terri tory to the Pacific northwest, as was done last year. As a consequence westbound travel through the Huntington gateway on colonist tickets Is diverted to eastern Washington points on the O. R. It N. company's lines, or to Spokane where the tickets permit of a connection with the Great Northern, that com lany having concurred In the old ar rangement. The result is to give eastern Washington and Puget sound tin a '1 vantage of securing homeseek ers and tourists. General Passenger Agent McMur ray has received from Traffic Direc tor Ktubbs a telegram Indicating that way will be found to reissue the passenger tariffs of the Union Pacific system to conform with the require ments of the Interstate commerce i-ommlsslon and compel the Northern Pacific to accept passengers ticketed through to the sound. Mr. M v , does not understand the full Import of the telegram, and Is awaiting further explanation. He wired Mr Stubbs today for more light. The latter replied that the question was being Investigated, and that fur ther advices would be Kent the Port land office within a few day. Reforoi? worth while are seldom performed over night.

Judgment for $15,000 was affirm- . ed by the supreme court a few days ago in favor of Mrs. Mlna Uauthier and her children, Howard and Mary, ; against Wood & Iverson, a prominent ! Snohomish county logging and mill- i ing firm, for the death of Benjamin uauthier, a brakeman on the com-! pany's logging train, who lost his life In an accident on the road, says the Spokane Chronicle. The crew was attempting to "buck" a heavy train load of logs up a 3 per cent grade. The method employed was to block the front cars so as to keep the couplings slack and the locomotive from the down grade end of the train would bump the cars and the momen tum carried successively from car to car would carry the forward car ahead a little and the wheels would again be locked to hold the distance gained. Gauthier was on the front of the lender sanding the track when one of the bucks was being made. The loco motive was connected with the car next to It with a "rooster" or long wooden coupler. Without warning it oroKe tnrougn a aeiect ana uauiner was crushed between the cars and locomotive. His neirs won a verdict for $15,000, which the supreme court affirms. TO BOOST THE ROSE SHOW.

Sand Francisco Spendthrift Now Liv ing in Squalor In Alaska. A Seattle dispatch says: Four hundred miles- from Point Barrow, far from all the haunts of civilized people, lives an old white man, who at one time "went the pace" in San Francisco spent an Inherited sum of $100,000, and then left for the wilds to hide himself forever. This strange being was encountered by Captain EJnard Mikkelsen, the famous young Arctic explorer, wh- headed the Anglo-American Arctic ex pedition In search of a great archi pelago believed to exist in Baufort sea. The captain came across the hermit while he was on his way from Her schel gan 1 to Nome. He obtained the hermit's name, but refuses to divulge It, saying the man's family was prom inent In the states and some members of it are well known on the Pacific, coast. The exile has taken a native wife p'nd Is raising a large family. One boy Is 17 years old, and this fact alone poes to show the length of time which this strangest of modern human be ings has spent on the bleak coast of the Arctic ocean looking out over his desolate environment.

To thoroughly test the site of the governments reforestation nursery on Mink creek, tn the heart of the Pocatello national forest, and to make it one of the most important planting station In America is the plan of the forestry service, accord ing to a memorandum received from Washington by Forest Supervisor Peter Wrensted, says the Pocatello Tribune. The capacity of the station will be increased by the addition of 10 new beds, containing room for 100,000 seedlings: all seedlings now In the ath house will be transplanted in beds being prepared for that purpose; 50. 414 one-year-old and 20,000 two-year-old yellow pine seedlings and 35,000 three-year-olJ Douglas fir seedlings will be shipped from the Halsey planting station to this point for transplantation, and 70 pounds of Douglas fir seed has already ar rived to be used in the nursery and for broa'dcast sowing. G. B. McDonald, a forest expert. has been assigned to complete charge of the Pocatello station from April 1 to June 30. R. I. Keator will be his assistant.

It is the announced plan of the for estry service to ue all of the stock produced at the Mink creek station for planting on the' Pocatello forest. The plan of operation of the sta tlon is outlined a follows by the memorandum received by Supervisor Wrensted from Washington: H is desirable that the nursery and plunting work Of the Pocatello planting station be carried on this I season In the very best manner, in or- der to test thoroughly this site for i nursery purposes. The capacity of ; the station should be enlarged by the addition of 10 4x12 foot beds, pro- . tected by low shade frames. This j number of beds should produce about ! 100,000 seedlings. "All seedlings now In the lath house should be transplanted to trans plant beds. It Is the plan to ship 50,000 one-year-old and 20,000 two year-old yellow pine seedlings from the Halsey planting station. These seedlings should be transplanted and left In the transplant beds for one season. "About 35,000 three-year-old Douglas fir seedlings will be shipped from the Halsey station for planting on the forest. "Experiments, on a mall scale, should be made this spring In broad- :cast sowlng Several acres of ap proximately one-half acre each should be stnken out on suitable sites. Different methods of sowing should be tried. Abu' five pounds of Douglas fir seed should be sown per acre. This is considered the most desirable species for planting In the Pocatello forest."

MUSI 00 T NO DEADHEAD LISTS AFTER APRIL 1, 1908. New IHwtnl Ruling Requires That All Papers .Must Weed Out Delinquent Subscriber After April 1. No More Deadhead Llsfln Will Be Allow ed If Papers Are to Enjoy Second Class Privileges. A Washington letter says of the new postofflce ruling which requires newspapers to carry a bona fide, paid up list of subscribers, the ruling tak ing effect on April I: The order of the postofflce depart ment. Issued December 4, 1907, re quiring the publishers of newspapers, magazines and other periodicals to maintain a practically paid-up sub scription list In order to entitle their' publications to the privileges of second-class matter, has stirred up quite I good deal of apprehension on tho part of publishers of country newspa pers, whose custom It is to extend un limited credit to many of their sub scribers. These apprehensions have been call ed to the attention of the third assis tant postmaster general, A. L Lawshe, who disclaims any intention on the part of the department to embarrass the publishers of legitimate newspa pers or magazines or of placing any obstacles In the way of conducting their business or Interfering with It. but says that the primary object of the order In question is to correct two great abuses of the second-class mail ing privileges which have resulted from the carrying of expired sub scriptions for Indefinite periods and from the old 100 per cent sample copy privilege that Is for every copy Of the paper sent to a subscriber, the publisher under the old regulations, was allowed to mail a sample copy at the second-class postal rate of one cent per pound. The essential feature of the new regulations, Mr. Lawshe states, fix a reasonable limit for the carrying of expired subscriptions and reduce the sample copy privileges to 10 per cent of the mailings of publications, In his opinion, will not work any real hard ships upon legitimate publishers, but, on the contrary, will bring many ben eficial results. The postoffice department has re (intly completed a thorough weighing of all classes ,f mall matter transmit ted by it, and from these weighings has been able to arrive at a correct estimate of the cost and revenue of each classification of mall. The estimate shows that 67 per cent of all mall carried Is second-class mat ter, and from this 6 7 per cent only 4 per cent of the revenues of the entire postofflce department Is obtained. The estimate shows that for transmitting first-class mall matter letters and sealed articles the department re ceives 84 cents per pound. For merchandise It receives 18 cents per pound. For publications not en titled to second-class mall privileges, It receives 9 cents per pound, and for second-class matter, 1. e., newspapers and other periodical publications. It receives 1 cent per pound. By correcting the abuses which have been growing up under the second class matter privileges, It Is expected by the postofflce department that the enormous loss to the government, brought about by these abuses, will be in a large degree lessened, and the postal service. If not placed on a self supporting or paying baslo, will be brought near enough to that condition to justify a decrease In the rates of first-class postage, thus bringing great benefits to the entire country. The new regulations, when Issued, provided that they .mould go Into ef fect on January 1, 1908; later It was decided to postpone the date until April 1. 190S, and on this date the department will put the regulations Into force. Rules Are Reasonable, The rule In reference to the renew al of subscriptions Is as follows: "A reasonable time will be allow ed publishers to secure renewals of subscriptions, but unless subscriptions are expressly renewed after the term for which thy are paid, within the following periods:' Dallies, within three months. Trl-weeklles, within six months Weeklies, within one year. Semi-monthlies, within four months. Monthlies, within six months. Bi-monthlies, within six months. Quarterlies, within six months. They shall not be counted In the legitimate list of subscribers, and copies mailed on account thereof shall not be accepted for mailing at the second-class postage rate of one cent n pound, but may be mailed at the transient second-class postage rate of one cent for each four ounces or frac tion thereof, prepaid by stamps affix ed. The right of a publisher to extend credit for subscriptions to his publi cation Is not denied or questioned, but his compliance or non-compliance with the regulation will be taken Into con sideration In determining whether the publication Is entitled to transmission at the second-class postage rates."
