THE MORNING OKE.GQNIAN WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1906. 11 SEMPLE EXPLAINS - HIS CANAL PLAN Civil Engineer Addresses East Side Improvement Association. TALKS FOR OPEN RIVER Vrgcs Portland No 6 to Wait for Gov ernment to Complete Jetty In land Umpire Should Assist in Opening Channel. Eugene Sample, a prominent civil engineer, who was once Governor of the Territory of Washington, was a puest of honor at the meeting of the Kast fcide Improvement Association last night, as was also Mayor Lane. The topic of discussion was the secur ing promptly of a deep channel con necting Portland with the ocean, either by the jetties under construction by the Government, or by a canal, as pro posed by Air. Scruple, from Young's Hay to Seaside. Mr. Semple spoke mainly on his own project, but placed great emphasis on the necessity for prompt action on the part of the Port land people, who ho said should take the initiative. He spoke of his long residence in Portland, having come here 43 years ago, and of his connection with the construction of the locks at Oregon City and the Waterway Association, all of which he considered gave him a right to speak on this subject, so vital to Portland and Oregon and Washing ton. He pointed out. In the course of his remarks, that the great railways are coming to this Coast in order to reach the traffic of Oriental countries, the Kast Indies, that had enriched so many cities. The great value of waterways in reducing the cost of transportation of freight was touched upon by the" speaker, and he told of the experience of the farmers of the Willamette Val ley following the construction of the locks at the falls at Oregon City. These waterways, he said, compel the railways to be reasonable with the people. He said New York was spend ing $101,000,000 to improve the Erie Canal to protect herself. Turning then to the main question, Mr. Semple point ed to the absolute necessity of Port land securing a deep-water canal to the sea, In the shortest possible time. The Government processes, he said, were slow, however anxious the engineers were to push the work. Urges Immediate Action. He declared that there was no im mediate prospect of relief by the jetties under construction at the mouth of the Columbia, as the work was going forward too slowly. Ten years from now would be too late, .for before that time traftlc would have gone elsewhere. Ho then presented hie project, which was to flank the bar witiva canal from Young's Bay to Seaside, with an offing north of Tillamook Head. where he would construct a breftkvr-ftfr over 3000 feet long. V ' . ) 'Air. Semple explaineARV this canal could be built in two ytTai at'a cost of about $-1,175,000, which would be less than the cost of the Jetties ; besides, there would be a great saving' in time. He called attention to , his article setting forth the details of his project .which was published in The Sunday Oregonian of October 14, and said that his great desire was to get his project discussed by the public, to the end that either it or some ' other be adopted that would give an open river to the sea. lie expressed the conviction, taking Into consideration the construction of a canal at Celilo, that Portland could de pend on the "support and co-operation of the great valleys of the Columbia and the Snake Rivers. Spokane would also co operate. The Willamette Valley, he said, was interested as much as the Columbia and Snake River country. "Time is, a great consideration," re marked Mr. Semple, "and Portland must act promptly. She cannot afford to wait for a river and hnrbor bill, which is used for political trading purposes, and you will have to get your own relief. The railroads are coming V your city, but they can't pet to the sea. Quick dispatch Is everything, and delays are not en durable. Not for City Alone. "This project will give relief, but one man cannot do everything. I want dis cussion on the best method of overcom ing the tyranny of the bar. The whole country is interested. Oregon and Wash- lnglon are becoming two of the greatest states in the Union. It has not been very long since the Willamette River was crossed by a ferry worked by horsepower, but this condition has been -changed. Progress Is everywhere to be seen. Ar tificial harbors are very common, and parallels to this proposed canal are nu merous. But Portland should not bear the whole burden. The whole section to be benefited should assist." Mr. Semple wa heartily thanked for his address. Mayor Lane followed with r short talk, in which he . indorsed Mr. Semple's declaration that there must be n 40-foot channel to the ocean, asserting that it would pay Portland and the farm ers of the interior to tax themselves heavily to bring this about. W. L. Boise spoke along the same lines and predicted a great future for the state. By motion it was decided to take up the question of a deep-sea channel to the ocean at the next regular meeting. Mr. Semple met many of his eld friends. and altogether the meeting was pleasant and profitable. RECOGNITION FOR OREGON X'nlted Kvangclicnl Conference Will Give Money lor Dallas College. The General Conference of the United Tvangelical Church, which convened at Cedar Rapids, la., early this month and lasted two weeks, recognized the Oregon conference and its educational interests In a most substantial way. Rev. A. A. "Winter, pastor of the First United Rvan Relival Church, and Rev. H. I Pratt, who were delegates to General Confer ence, returned last evening after an absence of nearly two months. Their mission was mainly to work for the en dowment fund of the Dallas College, and they are pleased with what they obtained. Andrew Carnegie has promised to con tribute a considerable sum to the endow ment of the school provided the church Itself will respond liberally. 'We were given half a day by the general assembly to present our cause." said Mr. Winter, "which was a great con cession in ttie matter of time. We were represented on the floor by Rev. H. I Pratt. Rev. C. C. Poling, formerly presi dent of the Dallas College and myself. We put in all the time allowed us tellins about Oregon and setting forth needs. We Hfked for SiO.oOO from the Eastern churches for our school, and were vir tually granted our request, the general conference ting the school the interest on J20.000 for four years.. It ia expected that before the expiration of the four years the I3D,0u will have been made up by subscriptions and donations, so we consider that we obtained large advant ages for our college. "By making up the $20,000 we shall be able to take advantage of the offer made by Mr. Carnegie. "The general conference recognized the principle of federation among the churches of the country, and appointed a committee of five to confer with other denominations on the subject. This action means that the United Evangelical Church stands ready to co-operate with, other churches in religious work." Man From India Wants Housework Jade Senrn Offer Him a Job, Bat JurlMt' Better Half Files De- P RESIDING JUDGE SEARS was per fectly willing to give the Hindu a job, but Mrs. Sears put her foot dowrf on the plan. As the foot still remains on the lid, the "Man from India' Is still looking for a position. It all happened this way : When Judge Sears left the bench yes terday morning, he found waiting in his chambers a tall Hindu who arose, saluted the jurist and calmly said, "I want a job." Somewhat startled, but far more excited by the strange request, Judge Sears hardly knew what to do. "Well, my dear fellow, I have no loose jobs lying around," replied Judge Sears. "The only position I have to give out Is that of bailiff and that- is now occupied." On hearing this, the ptranger drew from an inside pocket notice of his ap pointment as marshal of some consular court, signed by President Roosevelt. After displaying this paper, the Hindu exhibited a letter from an American counsul in some Oriental city where the dark-sklnetJ man had served as a guard. Just then a happy thought came to the judge. His house servant had recently left, and a houselnaid Is needed at the Sears' home. "Can you cook?" he asked the visitor. "No," came the quick reply, "but I can scrub; I can make clean." Thinking he could build the fires and act as a handy man about the house. Judge Sears took the visitor home. But Mrs. Sears decided that the judge's know ledge of house servants was not as thorough as his legal learning. So the man from India had to go. ARE HOME FROM EUROPE Sir. nnd Mrs. A. B. Steinbach Return From Tour of Continent. After five months spent in touring Europe, Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Steinbach have returned home. Mr. Steinbach is much improved in health. From Port land they went to New York and sailed for Bremen, thence going to Hamburg, where they remained two weeks at the baths. Later they went to Marienbad, where Mr. steinbach got the benefit of the healing: waters of that famous- re sort. It was at this place that Mr. and Mrs. Steinbach saw King Edward. After leaving Marienbad, Mr. and Mrs. Steinbach toured Bavaria. From there they went to' Switzerland, remain ing in the latter country a month. While in Switzerland they visited all the historic places and ascended the Alps. Mr. Steinbach Atys that the day of climbing mountains on foot is over in Switzerland, as alpine electric lines are growing in number and popularity. They visited, the home of William Tell, also the church where he worshiped. "In but one thing are the European cities superior to the American, and that is in their roads and streets.- All highways are owned by the govern ments, and are kept in nrst-class order. In this alone can I- notice any great improvement since my last trip abroad." said Mr. Steinbach. "I am glad to get back to America, Oregon, and Portland." Bloodhounds Pursue Robbers. GUTHRIE. Okla..

Each of the four normal schools in Ore gon has its own board of regents, but by the plan of consolidated xontrol, which was advanced at the last legislative ses sion, one board would manage all the four institutions, establishing uniformity in methods of training teachers, lifting the normals out of the "local high school" class, and effecting economies in the edu cational system of the state. An effort to consolidate normal school control in one board of regents will, prob ably be made at the coming legislative session. The plan has not aroused opposi tion in normal school quarters yet, and in numerous places it is advocated as a com promise solution of the normal school dif ficulty. The present regents of the several schools are as follows: Monmouth Normal B. Young. Astoria; H. L. Fenton. Dailas; J. F. Calbreath, Salem; C. E. Wolverton, Portland; S. B. Eakin, Eugene; J. B. V. Butler, Mon mouth; A. Sweek, Portland; B. Schotield, Forest Grove; A.

The State University and the State Agricultural College each had nine regents, and the consolidated board of the normals would probably have that num ber. . FOUND IN AN OPIUM DEN White Girl From Vancouver Arrested in Police Raid. A startling case of moral depravity was brought to light early yesterday morning, when a comely and well dressed girl of 20 years was found smoking opium in a notorious Chinese den at Third and Flanders streets. With the girl were two Chinamen, both in an opium stupor on a bunk nearby. The. girl was in the act of cooking an opium "pill" when Detective Kay broke down the doors. He arrested her and the two ChineBe. The girl took her arrest quietly and made no scene, ac cepting the situation as a matter of course. Just how she got into the habit of visiting opium dens she would not say. She gave her name as May Smith, and her home as Vancouver. Wash. She denied having relatives in Portland. In order that she may have ample time to break the hold of the opium h.abit, Judge Cameron imposed a sen tence of -three- months in the County Jaii when the case was called yester day. The Chinamen got a similar dose. Bank President Gets Sentence. JOLIET, 111... Oct. 23. Howard S.
