SOUND is ALARMED.
Traffic Diverted to Portland by Last
Winters Legislation.

Olympia, Wash, Oct. l3.-Sound
people are more or less alarmed at
the situation resulting indirectly from
the passage of the railway commits
sion bill by the Washington Legislature
through which many farm products
are now being diverted to Portland,
rather than TO Seattle markets.
The .. r. Il n. company followed
the passage of the act by the aboli-
tion of its Joint rates with the
Northern Pacific. 1t is a pleasant lit
tie handicap in the course of the rail-
road commission at the outset of its
career and is giving them no little
concern.
Those points on the o. II. & n. line
where there is no rail competition,
are now practically forced by the diff
ference in railroad rates to find their
market in Portland, rather than in
Seattle. Hay destined for Alaska and
formerly marketed on the Sound, is
now declared to be going to Portland.
There will be a fight for joint rates
before the railroad commission at its
next meeting in Colfax. The o. r.
& n. is fighting joint rates at every
turn, and will probably procure some
good equivalent for the Portland
market If 1t renounces the trade now
going that way.

Washington, ID. c.. Oct. 13.-The

deposits was proposed by c. f. Ellis,
of Erie. Pa. the scheme oeing an an
nual contribution from each national
bank to be fund in care of the

would have every bank contribute

positor In every bank that has failed
for the past five years would have
been paid in full and left $4,000, 900

Greeting.

In early summer Portland's gates
We're opened wide for you and we are
pleased and proud with your response.
We are coming to tell YOU So. And the
gates are never to be closed.
We are to break bread with you,
our neighbors, in your fertile valleys
the best bread basket in the world.
The same mountain ranges margin
our maps, the whistles ul the same
locomotive sound i'm your ears and
ours: the waters that freshen into life
your fertile fields. carry from our
wharves the commerce of the sea.
But closer than any bond of south
bank or north bank or of stream be-
tween, is the bond of good fellowship
that grows by each others fireside.
Something more than commercial
ism, something more than the swap
ping of bargains. something more than
common pride in the growth of our
common empire, binds us all together.
And we think this something can he
better expressed by little journey up
stream, across imaginary state lines
than by postal cards from home.
We're coming to call on you,
friends; we're hoping to see you all.

Yesterday the much heralded re-
publican peace conference was held in
the Empire theater in Portland, and
was attended by many representative
members of that party from all parts
of the state. The professed object Of
the meeting was to bring together the
order that at the next election the
party ticket would be upheld. This.
in outward appearance at least, is said
to have been done, though some of the
most 'discordant" members were con-
spicuous by their absence.
Around the corridors of the I'm
perial hotel the stalwarts were gath
cred during the day when not at the
meetings, and there were other con-
ferences held aside from the main
show in the Empire theater. Conspic-
uous in the throng yesterday was the
tall form of Ex-Governor Geer. who
was one of the large delegation from
Marion county, which overcame The
scheduled program and elected Frank
Davey as the chairman of the meet
q.
been no deep political significance in
that event. although Davey has in the
past been one of Geer's staunch sup
porters
Also prominent among the out of
town visitors was Mayor Johns of ba-
ker City, who reached there on Wed
nesday, apparently in the interests of
his gubernatorial candidacy. DR.
Withycombe of Corvallis, the only
other avowed candidate for that nom.
ination, was not present. being pre-
vented by his duties at the Agricul-
tural college from attending. Ex-
Congressman Moody was not tharS
either. but is said to have been pre-
vented by the illness of sister living
at Salem. Nor was W. ]. Furnish II
Pendleton. anywhere to be seen among
the crowd, for he did not go down. al
though he was appointed as Umatilla's
member on the committee on resolU-
tions.
However, there was goudly num-
ber of representative men from Fen
dleton and Umatilla county in spite
of the predictions that no one but The
county committeeman would attend
from here. Among those who attend
ed were Judge S. A. Lowell, Major
Lee Moorhouse, county committee
man: DIR. +. w. Vincent and &. Alex
ander, while G. w. Proehstel Was there
from Weston.
Many of those who were there from
the various parts of the state declared
that they had been compelled to come
to Portland for other reasons. and
seemed reluctant to admit they had
come for the love feast. However,
finding themselves in congenial com
pany they lined up and partook OF
their respective portions.
When seen at the Imperial last eve
ming one of the delegates whose name
is known in most of the $50 precincts
of the state, said:
The conference did everything that
was expected of it, for it brought many
of the party together and allowed OF
a discussion of the measures to be
taken for the future, and will tend to
lessen the factional struggles that
have been rending the party for some
time past. While those things cannot
be wiped out by any such procedure,
the meeting paved way for peace
where such is wanted. and it certain
ly did no harm.

Nominating petitions for candl-
dates for the coming city election may
be filed any time b.iNrer -rw AMI
November 10. Is days before election. y
said Judge Thomas Fit2 Serald this
morning. Under the state law which
is In force here, since there is moth
ing in the city charter governing cleo
tions. petitions for nominations may
be filed with the clerk not more than
100 days nor less than 15 days before
the date of the election. Since the
election day is December 4, all petit
tions must he filed by November 19
In order to be in compliance with the
law.
According to Judge FitE Gerald, the
direct primary passed at the last ses-
sion of the legislature. will not apply
here unless the regular party primary
conventions are held. which is some
thing that has not been done in the
past Should the regular primaries
be held petitions for candidates on
the regular party tickets would have
to be filed by October 20. However
there has been no intimation yet that
such primaries are to be held, and II
is thought that the usual method will
be followed again this year.
Number OF Names Necessary.
On the petition for the nomination
Of Independent candidates there mus
be at least three per cent OF the voters
OF the city for mayor, and three pei
cent of the voters of ward, fol

is based on the total vote polled al
the last presidential election.
In the past 1t has been the rule &c
require at least 10 signatures to a
councilman's petition and so to a

will still be sufficient, as there is ne
