MONDAY. JANUARY 18, 1010 OPEN THE WATERWAYS. Reoresentatlvo . Hawley just nuked for an aunroDrlatton in rivers and harbors bill for $100,000 to be used in improving the jetty at the mouth of the Umpqua river. It has heen ' a fond ambition of many people In Douglas County to see the river cleared oi onsirucuone sum clently for navigation, and govern ment experts have in years past sur veyed the stream- to ascertain if feas ible. Adverse reports on tne projeci have each time defeated the'propo- altlon. although In the early days steamer came up to Roseburg when the water was only four feet above low stage, and! made the return trip successfully. The river 1b deep- and wide as far as Scottsburg, . about twenty-five miles from Its mouth, and boats ply constantly to that point. It is said that more water flows In the Umpqua river from the convergence of the north and south rlvera a short dlstace below Roseburg than flows In the Willamette. One thing is certain and that Is with government adraiui etratlon of railroads continuing much longer. It will compel the people In self defence to open the water way , in, order to live. ... It nilght be a diffi cult thing to do, according to jngln eer reports, but in view of the t feat of the steamer in tneearly days, not such a problem, after all. Present rallraadl rates are nothing less than scandalous and a travesty on justice to the public, therefore a revival of this long ago forgotten ambition Is timely and could be made profitable to the people. SEEING "BIO." Brlggs Adams, a young New JerBey filer, who was killed in France, Bald In a letter, published recently in the Atlantlo Monthly: "it seems to me now that there Is nothing Impossible or out of reach if lmaginedobstacles coming from one's own mind are got rid of, and if one can stretch ill imagination beyond what he supposed . were the limits of his capacity, and see "big". Then It Is a simple mat tor of getting up and going aftor It with a will." No better sermon could bo preach. ed at the beginning of the 'New Year than this message from a boy who had answered the call of his "stretch' ed," imagination and found life and doath' worth while. Every great lea. der or Inventor or benefactor of man. kind has cultivated this ability for seeing -beyond the small and imme diate limitation to the big possibility beyond. . The best thing about it is that this is no recipe whereby the limited few, may attain greatness, Not every man Is gifted with the big vision of a Columbus, a Washington or a Foch. But every man has an imagination with a stretching capa city, which Improves with exercise, and every man, if he will use his power of Inner vision, can see some thing bigger ahead. The Republican program In pre paration for reconstruction Is 'by far the most comprehensive piece of legislation yet brought forward! to deal with the problems we are going to race witMn the next row years, Democratic members of Congress have submitted certain schemes, de signed chiefly to keep the control of all reconstruction mattors strictly In me nanas or tne administration. Hut even these schemes are manifestly incomplete and inadequate. The great objection to them, however, Is that a single party, or a single group of mon, oven It they nro associated with the nation's chief exocutlve, can not, in the nnturo of things, approach such problems with the broailneBs of view, winch tney require. The Re publicans, by mandate or the voters of tlio country, will nssume control of Congress next March. Is It con ceivable that they should be deprived of any voice In reconstruction? Is there any Justlfldcatlon for insisting that this important legislation should be dotermlnedi solely, by a party that, with the exception of the administra tion proper, Is shortly to go out of poworr Somo months ago Mr. MoAdoo mado the suggestion that tho electri fying of more of the main line rail roads of tho United Stales would, bo a doBlrenblo thing. Such a proceed ing would reduco greatly tho con sumption of coal and make the rail roads more Indonendont of weather conditions and relieve freight con gestion. Howevor tho control of the railroads may be decided flnnlly, It Is to bo hoped! that tho progross to- , , wnrd electrification will bo speeded and not retarded. Not only the tra velling publlo would be benefitted by this extension of electrical service, but also every dweller anywhere within honrlns or smoke range of a railroad. The olocotrlcally Impolled train, quiet and clean, Is as little ob jectionable as any traffic neighbor could be, while the noise and soot or steam traffic are only too well-known disturbers of the peace of any com munity. This conversion from steam to electricity will not only be of great , public advantage, but its accomplish ment would, offer employment to good many men, The church , congregation at Car lisle, England, welcomed President Wilson with' "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", calling It "the.Amerl can national anthem." They were not so far off, at that.' Plenty of Americans think it ought to be. - Lobs news from Gormany lately. Opinion regarding Gormany Is there fore not quite so hostile. If the Ger mans would lust stoD talking and writing altogether, the world might come to stand for them, In time. Judging from the bibulous activity In a good many "wet centers, the last set of New Year's resolutions re solved to beat the proh'bltlon law by drinking the country dry this winter. This will be the biggest business year ever If everybody only thinks so now. We take off our. hats to the two British Georges, Lloyd and King. Are those resolutions still resolute? TRIPHAMMER EXPERT PROVES GERMAN SPY (The Associated Press.) PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 12. An In teresting Btory of enemy sry work Is told by Frank H. Gosklll, assistant chief or the Protective League, which rendered service during the war. The organization, Mr. Gaskill relates, was responsible tor the interment ot man caught spelling out dangerous -messages with a triphammer, he was operating in a big industrial plant on the Delaware river. The messages were first detected by a telegraph operator In Palmyra, N. J. He caught the- hammer spelling out: "Troop snip moving tomorrow morning. The telegrapher notified the govern ment authorities, who caught the trip-hammer operator signalling: "Raid on fishing tleet complete sur prise." This wr.8 several hours be fore the news dispatches brought word of the sinking of a fishing fleet by German submariner, off New Eng land. The trip-hammer export was found to be a former tolegrnph opera tor. -Mr. Gaskill said' the mystery of where the operator got IiIb news or to whom he was signaling was nover solved. .,.',.
