The merchant who gives tho Same
attention to his advertising as he
does his sweeping, busting and re-
placing stock will never argue that
advertising doesn't pay. The man
who argues that advertising doesn't
pay is the man who would neglect to
attend to it. No doubt IL he would
leave his store month without
changing its appearance or sweeping
or busting the goods, he would con.
clude that it doesn't pay to keep store.
Advertising is an expense. but il it
didn't pay, large business houses
would never expend thousands of dol
lars annually to push their trade.

LOOKS GOOD TO BANKERS.
Iowa Man With Six Banks Would Blu,
SpOkane Stock.

Quite a stir was created among
Spokane bankers yesterday by the
efforts Of L. W.Lewis, of Clarinda,
Iowa. to acquire large block of stock
in one of the prominent banks, says
the Spokesman Review. He desired
to invest $4,000 or more. He found
bank stock practically off the market,
none being offered except from a de-
sire to encourage outside capital to
come here.
With this object in view efforts are
now being made by several bankers, to
induce some of their shareholders to
part with sufficient stock to make 1t
worth while for Mr.. Lewis to locate in
Spokane. He is pleased with the city.
Mr.. Lewis achieved national fame
by reason of a resolution which he
got through the Iowa legislature last
spring bringing about national con-
vention which will be held at Des
Moines IN September at which dele
gates appointed by the governors Of
the various states will agree upon joint
action that will result in an amend
ment to the constitution whereby
United States senators will be elected
by direct vote. Mr.. Lewis has been
a leader in the Iowa senate for 10
years He owns six banks in southern
Iowa.

WILL "RECLAIM' SIX ACRES.
Scheme That Involves Changing
Course Of Mil Creek.

The Dalles Chronicle gives the fol-
lowing account of a change that will
be made in the town by the o. r. &
NJ:
Within a few days work will be be-
gun on the culvert which will conduct
the water OF Mill creek from its pres
ent course across the o. r. & N. pc
ninsula to the river and admit Of the
creek bed being filled in.
The contract has been let to L.
Pearson, d. s. Barnum & Co., who
In a short time will have so men en-
ployed in digging a tunnel 500 feet
long through the peninsula, prepara-
tory to putting in a rock culvert 16x16
feet. The south end of the culvert
will commence at the small red car
house near the west end of the bridge
running directly north to the river.
1t is expected that the work will
consume about eight months, and
when completed large force will be-
gin filling in from the Hudson place
al the west end Of Second street to
the mouth of the creek. the material
for filling being secured along the o
r. & N. road east Of the city.

1t is estimated that this fill-in VII

acres upon which, It is rumored, n
new depot will be built.

200 MILES OF ALFALFA.
Union Pacific May Seed Right Of Way
From Omaha TO Ogden.

There is a probability that before
long travellers on Union Pacific trains
will ride through an alfalfa field be-
tween Omaha and Ogden--a remark
able, attenuated fieldw 90 0yards In
width and a thousand miles in length.
For a long time the Union Pacific
has been considering the problem of
eliminating weeds along the right of
way, and numerous schemes have
been suggested with this end in view,
but it was not until demonstration
was made that alfalfa will grow
without irrigation that the possible
key to the problem was found.
Now, it is said, the railroad com
pany will experiment with alfalfa on
the right of way and should the ex-
pertinent be successful, alfalfa will be
planted between the fences of the
right of way the entire distance from
Omaha to Ogden.
Alfalfa is a hardy and close-grow-
ing plant, and where it has obtaine d
foothold. all other vegetation is
strangled and cxterminated quickly.
Wee IS cannot grow in an alfalfa
pc .ch, and those which obstruct the
Union Pacific right of way would
quickly be killed, once alfalfa was
planted.
The purpose of ridding the right of
way of weeds is to prevent the growth
of vegetation on the roadbed. AT
present the section gangs are waging
constant war against the ever-en-
croaching belt of weeds on either side
Of the rails.
Alfalfa also will spread, if per-
mitted to run to seed, but the scheme
of the Union Pacific to eliminate
weeds with alfalfa has dealt with this
problem, and has solved it by provid-
ing that the farmers and ranchmen
residing along the right of way be
given permission to cut alfalfa be-
tween the fences and apply it to their
own purpose.
The experiment of turning a 1000
mile strip into an alfalfa field will be
watched with interest. If successful
this system will probably be adopted
by other railroads.

BUILDING NEW BOAT.
Open River Transportation Company
Begins Active Operations.

The material to be used in the con-
struction of the new steamer Column
bia, which is heing built for the open
River Transportation company, was
forwarded to Blalocks today, says the
Oregon Daily Journal. The steamer
was built IN this city and is being
shipped in a knocked-down state. it
being necessary only to put it together
on its arrival on the middle Column
bia.
Within the next few weeks this will
be accomplished and active work on
the river will he again resumed. Be
ing 116 feet in length and 22-foot
beam, the steamer will be able to
carry about 125 tons. Built with a
good light-draught model she will be
able, with her power, to ascend the
swift rapids on that stretch of water.
Work on her will be rushed in order
to meet the heavy demand of farm
ers along the river who are desirous
of shipping this year by water.
Captain A. Riggs will take command
of the steamer on her completion.
Having been formerly on this route
he viii be thoroughly conversant with
the channel. Samuel Shaver will act
as chief engineer with James Rob-
inson as assistant. Shaver will leave
with the carpenters Friday evening
for Blalock.
Arrangements are being made for
at least two more steamers to oper-
ate i'm ron iunction with the Column =
bia on the middle river and one large
steamer for the Portland end of the
route.

That George Mitchell was sane
man when he slew Joshua 'Creffield
was the conclusion arrived at by ply
sicians of Seattle who performed a
post mortem examination on the
young mans brain, which was normal
in every detail
The bullet which ended Mitchell's
life went in below the left ear and
ploughed through the head, lodging
In the right jawbone. 1t did not touch
the brain. Death was due to a hem
orrhage caused by the severlng of the
carotid artery.
MitchelPs sanity is expected to have
an important bearing on the case of
his sister when they put her on trial
for murder.
The report that the Holy Rollers
are assembling at Seattle has caused
activity in the police department
Chief Wappenstein states he has had
enough Of this sect, and that no more
of thcm will be tolerated in Seattle
The police are now working on clues
which may implicate others of this
sect in Mitchell's murder
Story of Holy RolIerism.
Holy Rollerism as taught by
Joshua" Creffield, had its inception
at Corvallis, Ore. in the spring of
1898. Creffield held camp meetings
and succeeded in getting a group OF
followers at once.
Previous to this he had been a Sal
vation Army worker. He was born in
Germany and was deserter from the
German army.
on the night of January 4, 1904. his
| fanatical teachings had gone so such
lengths that indignant fathers and
husbands of Corvallis women took him
out and gave him a coat of tar and
| feathers. They gave similar treatment
| to one of his male followers, c.
| Brooks. The men were warned that
they would be killed should they ever
return to Corvallis.
The next day Creffield returned
! covertly and was secreted by the Hurt
woman under the floor Of their home.
Here he dispensed with his clothing.
proclaimed himself prophet of God
and carried on his revolving orgies in
the name of religion.
July 2S, 1904, Creffield's hiding
place became known and he was
taken out and put in Jail.
In the meantime Esther Mitchell
because of his influence over her, had
been sent to the Boys and Girls Aid

mitted to return to Oregon until Cref-
field was sent to the penltentiary.
Other women, including Mrs. o. V.
Hurt and Maud Hurt, were sent to
the insane asylum for short time
because of Creffield's influence over
them while he was secreted under the
Hurt residence.
Tried I'm Portland.
Creffield, few days after his dis
covery. was brought to Portland ami
tried on statutory charge preferred
by Burgess f.. starr husband of
Mitchell's elder sister Creffield vic
tim.
In August Creffielde was found
guilty. He refused to have lawyer
and tried to clear himself by reading
passages from the Bible. Whtn found
guilty he made no effort to secure
leniency, simply stating that, like
Christ, he was misunderstood.
Soon after Creffield went to prison

the question carried by an overwhelm-
