ThoKditoi': I borf leave f take up
oniH space in your paper to enter a plea
lu defenso'of the Co.mnhia Uiver I5;ir
Pilots. I take Issue with the Mist of
Feb. 13 '07, in the article relative ti the
pilots.
, . For Ihe piv-.t t ight year I havo been
personally luqilaluted viilli the Colum
bia River Bar Pilot and with ryo of
th" river pi lot i, ao with the bar and
river a fur . 1'ortUmi, And I have
f .11 l the pilot, to m A bar y, fearlef
et of men, iilxaytioudv for duty, alnys
c union nboit running a ship Into
danger but fearing nothing when a ship
WIM In danger. The same liar Pilot
knowing the bar havo warned foreign
hip masters not to load their ships
beyond a given mark. And be not
heeding their warning, has loaded his
ship 12 Ut 18 inches deeper than the
the pilots deem ssfe, then because be
was delayed waiting for ui table weather
and tide, a great bowl went op because
of the delay and getting stuck a few
limes going over the bar.
Most of the ship that have come to
grief outside the bar was caused by the
greed of their owners in sending u shfo
out wilhont enough ballast and a sailing
mauler not familiar with the condition,
running too close In shore before know
ing it; then when he tried to put about
he wa in too light ballast, inied her
lays and was on the beach bt f rt a tug
or pilot could reach her.
If the foreign ship owner and sailing
muster were lt greedy and would not
try to force matters here, but give the
brave fearles men that bundle their
hip In and out of the Colum'tia tiver
bar the same courteous trealiu -nt. I lint
the pilot give them, and when a p lot
warns a ship captain to only Imi
vewel toacertaindepth heed ir a I vie,
things would go smooth and iiim woli j
the river and bar pilot ervi'- -. S uce
the change in the ninuagmeiit o thetu.-
host service there should b - ll om
plaint.
In all the newspaper controv ri-y ov
this subject I have seen but oi- until!
giving the pilots (usti.e. And I hr
also noticed that no one canet f .rard
and offered to operate tug b-itt ant
perform pilot service cheapfri.n l with
more dlapatch. Surely Mr. hditor if
tne pilot were so unskillful and tn-trli-gent,
and the tngs so poorly handled
tome ontt would have put in a rev c
tluit would haveloen satifacioiy before
this.

A correspondent of the Atl antic
Monthly writes that a congressman
from the midlife went said to him: "The
power of the country press surprises me.
During my two terms I have been im
pressed with it constantly. I doubt i'
there i Bsinisle calm utterance in any
paper in the United States that does not
carry some weight in Washington
among rhe members ol Corizrras. Yon
uii.-l.t think that what some little
country editor ny doe not amount to
Anything,. but it means a great deal
more tnan moat people realise. When
the country editor, who is looking after
nothing but the county printing gives
cxpreMilon to some rational idea about
a national question, tlie man off here in
Congretut knowj that it come from the

lawyer and that class of people realize
the power of the press but they bate

pared for a crlitablecxnuiination. He
numbered hi clus- and g iV e.ich hoy

this worked satisfactorily, and with

All weut well until they reached the
question, "Who made you?" Alienor,
"To glorify ( hid mid enjoy him forever."
The committeeman looked at the teach

question was passed to the next, with
aiiHii-iwer mure irr.-livant than the first.
The situation wa growing ominous,
