T. Williamson of Portland. A perma nent committee composed of Drs. K. 11. PIckc and J. J. Kramcns and W. 1. Vawter, was appointed to conduct a campaign of education In this city. Dr. Williamson In his talk dwelt upon tho folly ot casting a cloud of secrecy upon aubjects, tho truth of which Is vital to the health and hap piness of a rising generation. The. ravages of ignorance on these sub jects, were responsible he said, for much of tho suffering of humanity, and left as vide It trail of woe and misery as war. Prosecutor Kelly spoke upon the pcrnlciousness of quack medicine ad vertising and their pernicious effects upon boys.

Fifteen members of the office force of the American-Hawaiian Steamship com pany and the crew of tho stenmur Navajo were discharging the vessel's cargo toiluy, nfter efforts to arrange for the return to work of longshore men who walked out Into yesterday because tho recently organized Freight Checkers' union was not rec ognized, had failed. C. D. Kennedy, local agent of the company, issued nn ultimatum stating that tho union would not be recognized under any circumstances. Whether tho long jdiorcmcn employed by the San Fran cisco & Portland SJenniMiip company will walk out hinges on conference being held between representatives 'of the union nun tho company today. KfTorts were made by the union forces to entice tho seamen, cooks nnd waiters fiom tho steamer Navajo, hut at noon today none had quit. Union pickets arc patrolling the dock where the Navajo is berthed, hut no disorders have resulted. ROOSEVELT NEAR HOME: ULL MOOSERS RALLY CHICAGO, May 1. Continued allegiance to ,the progressive party Is pledged by members of tho national executive coniinltteo of progressives lu a cablegram sent laBt night to Col. Itoosovelt at Manaos, Hrazll.

Our organization Is stronger In faith than over and hall your return to our fighting forces." The cablegram was signed by Wil liam Fllnn, Albert J. Ueveridge and Jasper Bchonk of Iowa. George W.

YOUTH ORESCENT CONCERNING the Crescent City harhor, tho Sun Fran cisco Chronicle speaks editorially its follews: "Northwestern California and southwestern Oregon form a district almost, unknown to the ontside world, hut abundantly endowed with natural resources, for whose exploitation the time has now come. "Crescent. City, in "Hoi Norte county, is the natural out let by sea for that region, bub its harbor requires consider able improvement to make it available for an important, all-the-ycar-round traffic, and, up to this time, the internal transportation facilities have not been sufficient to bring to the port a commerce justifying a large outlay for its improvement. "As a result of a recent survey, the army engineers in charge recommended the construction of a breakwater and either improvements aggregating nearly $2,000,000, includ ing shore work, which naturally belongs to the community itself, but that sum is now recognized as inadequate for what ought to be done, and the board will apparently rec ommend a new survey for a larger project. "Within a short time, depending largely upon the money market, J)el Norte county will be opened up by rail. At the hearings in this city before the reserve bank organ ization board, a. Southern Pacific railroad official testified that it was the plan of hs company to continue as rapidly as possible the line from Eugene in the Willamette valley, which it is building into southwestern Oregon, where it will.mcct the rails of the Northwestern Pacific, which is to be extended north from Eureka, which it will reach some time next autumn. "If there comes financial peace, therefore, within a 'reasonable time, all that valuable but unknown country will be connected with the world, and Crescent City will become a considerable shipping point justifying the con struction of an adequate breakwater on the more exposed side of it? harbor, and whatever channel work is necessary. "All this will not happen at once. We do not know that the army board has yet actually recommended the appropriation for the new survey, and congress has cer tainly not yet appropriated the money. Hut that is as certain to come as the const ruction of the railroads now well under way both from the north and the south, and which will be continued to a junction as rapidly as the money can be obtained and prudently expended." SEX HYGIENE THE campaign of education of the State Hygiene soci ety, which was opened in Medford last evening, should be most vigorously prosecuted. Statistics compiled by these societies disclose a most Startling prevalence of sexual disorders, due largely to parental neglect and the widespread fallacy that diseases of this character are not dangerous and are susceptible of prompt and permanent cure. " Authentic statistics show cent of all blindness is indirectly chargeable to these dis orders; that they are directly responsible for seventy-five per cent of the pelvic operations performed on women and that fifty per cent of the population have either had or now are afflicted with sexual diseases. The subject is not a pleasant que and the average citi zen shrinks from any discussion of it, but the appalling waste of human energy and human life call for drastic hygienic measures, and education on this much-evaded subject is best calculated to get results. AL M'COY ASKS FORTUNE TO MEET BILLY MURRAY i NEW VOnK, May 1. Kvery hox- iiijr promoter from San Francisco to Boston is laughing at the demands of Al McCoy, the Urooklyn middle weight, whose bole elaitn to fame is the trick he turned when he laid nut Georno Chip with ft wallop on the jaw. rnip claims tne puneii wiih n lucky one nnd has offered to bet .$5000 that he can turn the tables if they ever meet again. McCoy, how ever, has never replied to this offer. Several days ago Promoter James V. Coffroth wanted McCoy for a match in San Francisco with Hilly Murray, touted on the coast as a comer. Here is the reply Coffroth gol from Manager Jack Deugherty: "McCoy will fight Murray if he in guaranteed 4lfj,000. Wiie us two-round-trip tickets mid we will catch the rattler for 'Frisco at once." Coffroth, of course, gave the tele gram tho once-over and coiihigned it to the waste basket. Less than a year ai?o McCoy jump ed at the chance of pulling down ff-00 for ten-round bouts. DR.

Fuller, well known in this city and Grants Pass, and sentenced to from three to twenty years in the Mate prison for n statu tory offense involving lleatrico Knv nuatigh, n 15-vcnr-old girl, have in augurated n movement to secure his pardon. Fuller has n wife nnd fnm ily, nnd has a position awaiting when tho prison gates jar open, llu is u skilled mechanic. The caso of Fuller was one of tho most salacious in tho court annals of Jackson county, the evidence showing that tho married man was madly infatuated wiih Beatrice Knv nnnugh, and wroto her dozens of let ters full of endearing nnd affection ate terms. These cplntles were in troduced as oidence ngainst him. The girl's puieuts at the lime of the trial sided with Fuller. The conviction culminated a ser ies of escapades involving Beatrice Kavuunugh und .Myrtle Ilauscom, both youiig gills; Titus, now in Texas; Duvo Hoggs, recently arrested by the police, and Fuller.
