From Sea 10 Sea.

About 100 miles southward and eastward from Vera Cruz is the gulf terminal of the Tehuantepec railroad which will be completed and opened to traffic July 1. The rails are laid, and the terminal facilities for a great interoceanic trade are well progressed. A line of nine flrst-class steamships will ply between Salina Cruz and San Francisco and Honolulu, between Coatzacoalcos and New Orleans and New lork The ships of the Pacific Mail will also call at Salina Cruz, and a German line will connect Hamburg with the new rans-continental rail. road
 William E. Curtis of the Chicago Record Herald says the termini of the Tehuantepec railroad are unsurpassed. Panama and Colon are outclassed in every respect. The new trans-conti- mental line is but 150 miles long, and the rehandling of goods is to be done in the most modern manner.
 The differences in distances all run in favor of the Meicans and against the Panama railroad, as follows:

AGED MAN LOST.
Father of Mrs. William Butte, of
Salem, Wandering Alone in
Mountains of Washington.

Mrs. William Butte, of Salem, is
in Lewis county, Washington, assist
ing in the search for her aged father
Rudolph Meyer, who mysteriously
disappeared from his home near
Napavine, July "a.
If the earth had opened up and
swallowed Mr.. Meyer, the mystery
surrounding his Disappearance could
not have been greater.
Mr.. Meyer, who is nearly so years
old, was carrying lunch for his sons
from his house to the place they were
working. The distance was about
a mile and across a smooth, level
prairie. That was the last time Ri
dolph Meyers was seen.
Posses were organized that night
and the whole country around has
been searched, but no trace of the
missing man has been found.
Mrs. Butte was sent for and is
doing all in her power to locate her
aged father.
Mr.. Butte had a letter from his
wife this morning saying the search
is being continued, but still no trace
has been found of the missing man.

FOOTBALL
GAMES
ARRANGED
University of oregon Boys
Have Five Games Already
in Sight

Eugene, July 31.-Although the
University of oregon football sched
ule for the coming season has not
been completed, Manager Guy Mount
has announced the following games:
October 27-Oregon VS.. Idaho, al
Moscow.
November S-Oregon VS.. William
cite, at Eugene.
November 1O.-Oregon VS.. Cor
wallis, at Corvallis.
November 17-Oregon VS.. Wash
ington, at Eugene.
November 30 Thanksgiving day.
-Oregon vs.. Multnomah, at Port
land.
Two dates, October 90 and Novem-
Der "a, are still open, but it is un-
likely that any game will be sched-
uled on the latter date, as Manager
Mount wishes his men to have a
good rest before the big Thanksgiv-
ing game with Multnomah. Efforts
are being made to secure a game for
October 20, and it is reasonably GER
tain that some good team will meet
the varsity on Kincaid field that
date. The schedule is limited to six
games. For the past three years
Oregon has played eight games, but |
there is a general demand, especially |
among football men for a shorter |
schedule.
College will open on September 25
and Captain Chandler expects to be-
gin football practice Immediately
thereafter. Coach Hugo Bezdek will
be on hand before college opens and
Trainer "Bill" Hayward is already
here. With the famous Bezdek as
'oach and Bill" Hayward as trainer
he Oregon football men will be as

ides these most of the second team

J. Conner of the willamette
Hotel Going to Try
the Experiment

81 lived In California for twenty
Ave years and when | returned there
after an absence Of ten or twelve
years I was amazed at the beautiful
streets and other progressive thing;
in the way of civic improvement u
said j. Conner, proprietor of the
Willamette hotel. Mr.. Conner has
been in Central California for the
past month and returned to Salem
yesterday.
"ln the towns that / noticed, the
streets were always well sprinkled
and the towns we're always clean" ="
continued Mr.. Conners, "and in each
OF them all the drives around the
railroad stations were sprlnkled with
crude oil.
Mr.. Conners went TO Napa, st.
Helena, Callstoga, Headsburg and
Santa Rose. In each Of these towns
all OF them much smaller than Sa
lem, the streets were well sprlnkled
and this had a good effect on bust
ness.
"Callstoga." said Mr.. Corners,
has population OF about 900, but
they keep their streets scrupulously
clean. The town owns its own street
sprlnklers and they are good ones.
Then they hire men to furnish their
own teams and do the work. They |
put on plenty of water and there is
never any dust"
Mr.. Conners believes that the pro-
blem OF keeping the streets of Sa.
lem clean can be solved by using
crude oil. He says that he is going
to try the experiment In front OF the
hotel at his own expense
and will be glad TO be one of mum.

He asked the driver the cause and
was told that the road had been
iprinkled once with oil.

EXEMPTION LAW rs INVALID

(Pendleton East oregonlan.)
That is a startling decision by
the supreme court. declaring the
exemption law Of Oregon invalid.
For half a century this law has
been In execution, exempting house
holders from taxes on $500 worth OF
the necessities OF life. Now the poor
man must pay taxes on the limit of
his little wealth.
This will not effect the man with
large wealth. Three hundred dol
lars 10 men OF means amounts TO
nothing, comparatively, but to the
small property owner. whose sole
wealth is In the tools and implements
with which he must make living,
this decision will be burdensome.
Nonresident capitalists who own
land In Oregon, New Hampshire,
Colorado and other states, will not
feel the burden OF this decision, but
the poor settler In the dry gulchea
and arid plains of Oregon, with his
only holdings in sight to be taxed in
full' VIII oringe under this added
weight OF taxation.
The law has been In execution 50
long, Its fairness and justice have
been 80 long unquestioned. that It
has become a fixture in Oregon and
must be re-enacted. placed indelIbly |
upon the statutes OF the state by the
next legislature.
