After foreign Trade
Mr. Clark said that Oregon could not
compete with the manufacturers of the
1 East, except on a few articles because
of better facilites in the East. ‘ ‘And
why should we try?”
he declared.
" l’he shipping rate from Portland to
Denver is the same as from
here to
Vladivostok; and so why not bring for
eign products to Oregon add to their
value by returning them into manufac-
tured products, and reap the profit?
Our idle waterfalls could give us th#
cheapest and best power on earth.”
Mr. Clark pointed out that Germany,
litUe larger than Oregon, supported a
population of 70,OOP,000 instead of
700,000.
“ The production o f raw ma
terial mears a sparce c untry and poor-
! er people; manufacturing means heavy
employment and richer people,” he de
clared.

Hi* Gtniu* Enabled Him to Turn Bad

We were to open u uew theater lu
Bauton street, which was not ready, so
we were transferred to the Royalty.
Mansheld was a young man then,
about twenty-four, I should say. Lie
waa practically unknown. He boon
began to shine at rehearsal. His purt
was that of an old beau. .1. G. Taylor
was to play u certain waiter. The play
was an adaptation from the French.
Faruie was the adupter, with no pride
ot authorship, so he allowed Mansfield
a good deal of liberty In the w ay of U>
lerpolation and business. Day by day
the part of the old beau was built up
•specially lu Taylor's scenes, until
Mansfield's part assumed the propor
tions of a leading character and T a y
lor’s part, which was the principal
comedy part of the play, faded away
lato the background? We all began to
take notice o f Mansfield and to per
celve that his character was going to
he the part of the play.
One day Taylor rebelled. He told
Farnie and Alexander Henderson, the
manager of the theater, that lie was
the leading comedian of the company
and that Mansfields character had
now become the most important per
souage In the comedy. He protested
violently. Faruie was in u dilemma
Mansfield's business and additions
were so clever uud so valuable that In-
deserved the prominence accorded to
him Taylor was an Important actor
and could not be dispensed with.
Mansfield came forward
"Would
Mr. Taylor like my part?" he said.
Taylor felt that, as the principal
comedian, the best part belonged prop
erly to him lie ought to have Mans
field's part.
Mansfield handed It to him. "By all
means." said be. “ Here it Is," and he
banded over the manuscript covered
with Interpolations, corrections and
business
We resumed our rehearsals.
"You will allow me.” said Mansfield
to Farnie—"you will allow me the
same privilege with this new part you
were so generous as to accord me with
the other? Mr. Taylor has the advan
tage of my suggestions on the other
character; you w ill permit me to do my
best with this?”
"By all means," said Farnie, and to
work we went again.
Mansfield built up agnlu. Day by
