established over century ago by the
Spanish padres and built under their di-
rection by the Indians Some OF the mis-
sions are in an excellent state Of preserva-
tion. and others in picturesque ruin. Their
style of architecture lends itself TO the
artistic needs in a manner surprising to
many who have not travelled in the outly-
ing districts of California.
Mr.. JorPensen has upward OF eighty
studies in water color Of the missions, and
complete set in oil. For five years he
made a study of their architectural
beauty, and as draughtsman as well as
colorlst, Mr.. Jorgensen stands high In the
profession. President Roosevelt, in his
trip through the Yosemite, was guest at
Mr.. Jorgensen's studio, and highly com
mended his pictures.
Mr.. Shima's exhibit comes well Endorsed
by the critics Of New York. In a recent
letter from Miss Juliet Thompson. writ
ten from the National Arts Club, TO Mr..
james Henry Moser, Of this city, there is
this reference to the japanese exhibit

edly the most interesting of the club !

INVESTIGATE CAR SHORTAGE.
Portland Chamber of Commerce VIII
Endcavor to Relieve Situation.


The Portland Oregonian says of the
efforts of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce to relieve the car shortage
situation in Oregon:
SO inslstent is the demand of the
shippers for relief in the car situation,
and so damaging to bu mess in all
lines has the car shortage become,
that the transportation committee of
the Chamber of Commerce has taken
up the matter and is gathering data
on the subject Just what recon-
mendations will be made by the COM
mittee cannot now be learned. The
report of the committee will not be
ready for several days.
Manufacturers and shippers gener-
ally hope that the action of the com
mittee backed by the Chamber of
Commerce, will have a good effect
in raising the embargo on traffic
caused by the car shortage.
Many Oregon lumbermen report
they have felt the effects of the car
shortage and have been compelled in
some cases to close their mills out
right from the inability to get cars to
move their lumber to market. Others
have stopped temporarily until the
situation shall improve, while others
have partially suspended operations
by turning off night shifts or by re-
fusing all orders the delivery of which
depends upon rail shipments.
1t is said that never before has
there been such a demand for the out
put of Oregon sawmills as at present,
and millmen also complain that never
before has there been so much diff
Guilty in marketing the output. The
present situation is one that demands
the operation of the mills to their full
capacity. but when the lumber is piled
on the docks awaiting shipment, mill
men must take chances on getting
cars to ship 1t to market. This con-
dition is naturally embarrassing to
millmen.

DAMAGE SUITS BROUGHT.
New Tactics to Get Rid of Lewiston
TcndeI'loin.

Following the failure of efforts
made in the police court ar Lewiston
to rid an otherwise respectable neigh
borhood OF lewd women and their
hangerson, damage suits have been
brought as stated as follows by the
Lewiston Teller:
Damages to the amount of $4,000
divided among six owners of proper
ty in the tenderloin district this sum
representing the damage declared to
have been caused property owners by
reason of harboring denizens of the
half world in that portion of the town
where they now reside, is about to be
asked for in the district court by Den
mis- Holland and others. The defend
ants are not made known. Five
thousand is to be asked from each OF
the defendants.
In addition to the sum to be sued
for the plaintiffs viii ask that the
state take the matter in hand and
chase people of the half world from
Lewiston.
1--WE are through fooling with this
police court here and will ask au-
thoritcs who will act" said Mr.. Hol-
land today. I'VE now have a firm of
lawyers at work getting the names OF
owners OF property where these i'll
fame women live and after we have
n complete plat of the section, we will
go ahead to bring our suit. I am not
in a position at this time to give the
names of the others who are associat-
ed with me in the filing of the pro-
posed suit, but It will be done"

OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, chronic
kidney disease is the most fatal. In
fact, unless early and correct treatment
is applied, the weary patient seldom
survives.
Being fully aware of this, Lydia
E. Pinkham, early in her career, gave
exhaustive study to the subject, and in
producing her great remedy for
woman's ills - Lydia Z. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound-was careful to
see that it contained the correct combi-
nation of herbs which was sure to con-
troll that fatal disease, woman's kidney
troubles Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. Derangements of
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when woman has such
symptoms rs pain or weight in the
loins, backache, bearing down pains,
scalding or burning sensations or de-
posits in the urine, unusual thirst,
swelling of hands and feet, swelling
under the eyes or sharp pains in the
back, running through the groin, she
may infer that her kidneys are affected
and should lose no time in combating
the disease with Lydia f. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, the woman's
remedy for woman's ills.
The following letters show how
marvelously successful it is.
Mrs. Samuel Frake, of Prospect
Plains, N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham-
cannot thank you enough for what Lydia

city plant were in existence.
The above figures leave out of the
account the amounts saved by the re-
duction in rates since the municipal
lighting and power plant went into
operation.
In the statement, interest Is charged
for 1907 against the whole authorized
issue of 100000 of bonds; but, as a
matter of fact only half of that
amount will be issued during the year.
This would reduce the expenditures
for the year by the sum of S11,25C
which, added to the above surplus
would make SS6,914.2S.

FAVOR SMALLER TOWNS.
Western Passenger Association VIII
Cut Out Exclusive Privilege for Big
Cities


The Western Passenger association
has just started a movement in traf-
fic which, 1t is thought, will work to
the advantage of the smaller towns
of the country and which will give
them an equal chance to secure travel
and tourists with the larger cities
like Portland, Spokane, Seattle and
Tacoma.
The association has been in session
in Chicago for several days and Chi
cago dispatch, referring 10 the work
of the convention there, says:
The Western Passenger association
today, after a lively three days ses-
sion, referred the questions of mer-
chants rates and universal stop-over
privileges for large cities, to the
Stubbs committee, with strong recon-
mendations to do away with both.
II this is done merchants will be the
first to feel the effect of the new In
terstate law. The merchants rates
have been granted for Is years and
they have built up the larger cities
at the expense Of the smaller, accord
ing to attorneys of the association.
This, II is held, brings them under
the ban of the new law. Stop-over
privileges. 1t is also claimed, amount
to territorial discrimination and would
act to favor large cities.
At a recent meeting of the Central
Passenger association theatrical rates

of government troops, thus to avoid
trouble with the government.

Mass. The present Mrs. Pinkham is
the daughter-in-law of Lydia e Pink

knowledge that will help your case.
Her advice is free and always helpful.

That a municipal electric lighting
plant reduces the cost Of light and at
the same time is a good investment for
the city is shown by the report of the
city of Seattle for the past month
on the lighting department.
One year ago Seattle voted TO es-
tablish a municipal electric light plant
and although the project was bitterly
opposed by capitalists and those hav-
ing money invested in electric plants,
yet the municipal plant has reduced
the cost of electricity to the consum-
er and in the past year has accumu-
lated a surplus of $S6,914.28.
The Seattle News gives the follow
ing report of the operation of the
municipal plant for the past year, with
estimates of expenses for the ensuing
year. The News says:
Superintendent Luther B. Youngs,
of the water department, today COM
pleted a report showing the earnings
OF the municipal plighting plant from
the day of its operation on September
8, 1905, to September 8, 1906, with es-
Inmates to January /, 1907, and upon
these figures fas based the estiamtes
of the receipts and expenditures for
1907.
The report shows that up to Sep
tember s, 2457 applications for light
had been received, and at the present
rate of 100 a day there will be 1855 by
January /. At the present earnings
rate of s2.54 per month, the earn
ings from private consumers will be
$10,37S.44 next January.
At present there are 2400 incan-
descent and 504 arc lights used by the
city. Additional lights ordered will
bring these figures up to 1852 and
$40 respectively. Earnings from these
on city account will be S6235 in jan
uary. making the total for the month
$l6,663.44.
1t is further estimated that for the
year 1907. the total earnings will be
s2O9,1S9.2S.

WOMEN VOTE AT
SCHOOL ELECTION.

MONTCLAIR, Oct. S.-Women
carried the day at a special school
meeting Saturday night held in Cald-
well, the birthplace of Grover Cleve-
land. At least 100 women voted,
and they applauded vigorously and
waved their handkerchiefs when the
result was announced.
A large influx of New York fami-
lies in recent years caused a demand
for increased school facilities, but
this was opposed by many natives
residents, among them not a few To-
cal business men. At last the new
element succeeded in bringing the
question squarely before the people
at Saturday nights meeting. Tbs
situation had become so bitter, owing
to a division of popular sentiment,
that they New Workers threatened
to withdraw their trade from local
storekeepers and transfer it to Mont
clair. This was settled Saturday by a
vote in favor of the purchase of a
plot of ground for a new school. The
money will be raised by a bond is
sue, which was authorized at the
meeting.

said Mrs. Woolverton, and the police
obeyed with an alacrity born of her
commanding tones.
The arrested pair declared it was
all a horrible mistake, and denied
that they had the slightest intention
of clipping. Mrs. Woolverton did not
listen to explanations, but again got
into the cab in which she had taken

There was a small race wal be-
tween blacks and whites early yes
terday morning in Orange street
Newark. Eight or nine negroes and
four white men were involved, but

they scattered, and only two arrests
were made.
The negroes were in a cheap res

recently been heaped upon their bre-
thren down home" They became
greatly excited and one of them fin
ally started for the street after de-
claring that he would ~''wallop" the
first white man he met. Picking Ut
chairs, bottles and other handy wea-
pons, his companions followed him
from the restaurant.
Just as they reached the sidewalks

shouts of the restaurant keeper
brought several policemen. While
