OREGON'S WHEAT EXPORTflTIDWS ARE DOUBLED Twice the quantity of wheat will be ent abroad from Portland this sea. ton as last, despite the curtailed pro. Auction as compared with 12 months tgo. Moreover, three-fourths of the grain produced In the Pacific north west for export purposes will be for warded from Portland, says the Port land Telegram. With the Increased transportation facilities from the interior to this port, the exporters say there Is no lonper any excuse for making ship ments from Puget sound. "All the wheat I export this season will be sent from Portland," said T, E. Wilcox, one of the leading grain shippers on the Pacific coast, this morning. "There Is no longer any necessity of taking grain from the In terior of Oregon and Washington to Fuget sound ports. The Increased railroad facilities to Portland mean that the cereal will be brought here tor shipment" Mr. Wilcox explained that he will be obliged to export some from Se attle and Tacoma as heretofore, be cause of the regular steamship serv. Ice from there to the Orient. The mills of Western Washington will also have to be kept In operation, as they represent heavy Investments. But the unground ceroal"s outlet to the mar kets of the world will be through the Oregon metropolis. That Kerr, Oifford & Co,, other heavy exporters, are planning to ship all their wheat from Portland this year la Indicated by the tonnage they have already sent here. A few days ago the firm chartered the British steamship Queen Amelia to load wheat at Tacoma for Europe. After being sent to the sound and no grain being found at the docks for her, the steamer was ordered to pro. ceed to Portland. She will arrive In a few days and will take out a cargo measuring close to 200,000 bushels. There Is not a grain carrier being loaded on the sound while three ves sels of more than average capacity art being supplied with cargoes at the lo cal docks. Two of them are big tramp steamships whose cargoes will aggregate half a million bushels of wheat. The third Is the British bark Andorlna, the largest windjammer that ever came up the river. She Is capable of handling close to 200,000 bushels of the cereal. Other ships under charter to trans port wheat from Portland In Septem ber are nearlng the river. But not withstanding this fact, more tonnage is being brought here from Puget Sound, where not a ship Is being load ed with wheat for a foreign port. The exportors say the reason for It Is plain: Grain will not be sent from the Inland empire over the mountains to tidewater when It can be rolled down hill Into Portland, the logical shipping center of the Pacific north west. with the wheat export traffic thrown to Portland, this city will take second place among the great graln- shlpplng centers In the United States. At the close of the fiscal year, June SO, 1909, It Is admitted that New York will be the only port In the country having a greater volume of business to its .credit. Portland already enjoys the distinction of being the third port In this respect. Though they make chronic com plaints against It occasionally, the owners would rather send their ships to Portland than to any other port on the Palfle coast. Fresh water Is an attraction they can hardly resist. Besides, it Is pointed out that the charges here as compared with other ports are less, if summed up Impar tially and Including every Item. 1 ID IICAT E Iff RECLAMATION SERVICE IS ASKED TO AID Six Years Ago tlic Government Want ed to Help Reclaim the Arid Land of Malheur But the Offer Was Poornetl Now the People Will Ac cept the Services of the Govern- merit. Farmers and stockmen of the Mal heur and Owyhee valleys, in the east ern portion of the state, who refused to allow the government to irrigate their lands six years ago, have now changed their minds and are about to petition the reclamation service for assistance, says a Portland pa per. W. H. Doollttle of Ontario, who Is tages certain to accure from the wool storage movement Inaugurated by the state association this year, said J. A. Delfelder during his visit to Frontier, to the Cheyenne Tribune " e have already demonstrated the fact that this movement was di rectly responsible for a more active market and considerably higher wool market this year, and made the wool growers who had not sold or con signed a lot more money. Another year will witness much more far reaching results. very rew western wool growers know anything about how to breed for wool. They go about it in a hap hazard way, let the wool be what it will, jumble It all together and then kick if the price is low. "One result of the wool storage and wool market plan will be the grading of all western wool and the education of sheepmen In the essentials for a good clip. Until we educate a suffi cient number of expert graders, west ern wool will be graded at the stor age warehouses, but later on we are sure to adopt the Australian plan of president of the Commercial club of this city, is In Portland to enlist the grading at the shearing pens, good offices of the Portland Commer- j "Then, and not till then, will 'the Clal club as a prelude to calling a Slower know just what he Is doing mass meeting of the citizens of Mal-'an(J receive the real value of his pro.

Mrs. Laura McClure, living at 1311 Madison avenue, La Grande, Ore., says: "I have used Doan's Kidney Pills off and on for three or four years and the best possible results have always been obtained. An overexertion or the contraction of cold often served to bring on back ache and at such times my kidneys would be weak and I would be great ly annoyed by dizzy spells. I would be restless and nervous and as a re sult of the loss of sleep, would arise In the morning feeling tired and worn out.

The St. George restaurant, with Its first-class modern kitchen and good dining room equipment, Is well pre pared to handle a splendid business.

Since that time some 350,000 acres of western Idaho have been trans formed from a sandy desert to green, fields and we now realize what we missed. If the reclamation service will reconsider the matter and go ahead with Its system In the Malheur and Owyhee valleys, we will show our good will by cooperating to the utmost of our power. "It did look hard, six years ago, for the man who had developc-d a little Irrigating system of his own to give Jt up, after years of labor and ex pense, and this Is why we refused e are w ise now, however, as we have seen what President Roosevelt had In mind for us, and the great de velopment Included in the government system.

Malheur county Is the most easter ly of Oregon's counties, and is direct ly tributary to Portland as regards its products and its consumption of mer chandlse. The people there feel as though the business men of the city will heartily cooperate with them. The naturally f-tJle valleys they say must languish in a degree for want, of an extensive system of Irri gation, which when once In operation will cause Malheur to blossom as the rose and enable the county to sup port In comfort and luxury a dense population within a short term of years. must be made to some one willing 'to do this for a profit, and not to the manufacturer. "This storage movement contem plates this feature, and this must ul timately result in attending the grad ing of all western wools at the shear ing pens."

V. Roiam, who came dlretly from the main office In London to look after the firm's Interests In this state, says the Salem Statesman. t Mr. Bolam Is a young English gen tlf-man of pleasing appearance and personality and comes especially well tripped with knowledge of the hop business, and especially the demands of English brewers, to look after his firm's Interests In Oregon, whose hop product Is especially sought after by the English trade. The Hoist company, headed by Lonle Horst, Is also Interested In the American Hop and Barley company, with its principal office In New York, but raises the most of the hops for Its own consumption In California.

Charles Scadding. bishop of Oregon, and Mrs. Scadding, returned to their home in Portland yesterday, says the Oregon Dally Journal. The bishop went to Eng land to attend the Pan-Angelican con. gress In June, and the Lambeth con ference ip July of bishops of the Angelican communion from all parts of the world. The Lambeth confer ence meets once In 10 years at Lam beth palace, the London residence of the archbishop of Canterbury. This year 143 bishops were present, of whom 60 were American bishops of the Episcopal church. Bishop Scad ding said: "I am very glad to be home again, and have had a very pleasant trip, an the privilege of attending inspiring and instructive conferences which took Into consideration various ques tions affecting the welfare of God's people and the work of the Church of Christ In divers parts of the world. The debates on all questions were far teachlng, and the bishops realized that the links which bind the Eplsco pal church to the historic past are not fetters upon the free and enter prising spirit which Is essential to progress. The sectarian spirit was distinctly absent, and the predomi nant thought In the minds of the bishops was of the church. as ordain ed of God for the service of man kind." The subjects under discussion were: "The Reunion of Christendom," "Or ganization In the Angelican Commun ion," "The Moral Witness of the Church to the Problems of the Day," "Minlsterles of Hoalln." "RMIpr'.o-.i . Education," "Supply and Training of the Clergy," "Foreign Missions," "The Faith and Modern Thought," "Mar riage Problems," etc. On all these subjects after full and lengthy debate, resolutions were passed, which will be printed and published In due time, and will be well worth reading by every thoughtful person. The sessions of the conference were held daily from 10:30 a. m. till 5 p. ni. with an hour for luncheon, pro. vlded by the archbishop and serveA daily In the palace dining hall, Bishop Scadding spoke highly of the hospitality .and courtesy ghowr, all the American delegates by the English people, from the king, and prince of Wales to the humblest sub ject In the realm. He met many peo ple who had relatives In Oregon, and all were interested In knowing about Oregon. The bishop preached many times In England, and on the steamers, and on the return voyage gave an address to 400 rmmlgranta on board of the Empress of Ireland. Three young clergymen, graduates of Harvard university, and the Cam bridge Divinity school have offered themselves for service In Oregon, and will come early In September.
