ADAMSON KILL IS DELAYED Physical Valuation for Itig Corpor. ationa Once Near Vote. Washington, D. C. An amendment offered by Republican Leader Mann, proposing a rigid regulation of the is suance of stocks and bonds, prevented passage by the house of the Adamson bill that would authorize a special commission to ascertain the physical valuation of railroads and other inter state carriers with the view of aiding the Interstate Commerce commission in fixing equitable feight rates. Debate on the bill, which was favor ably rvported by the interstate and foreign commerce committee at the last session, had been in progress nearly five hours and a vote was about to be taken when Mr. Mann moved that the measure be sent back to the committee with instructions that it be reported with his proposed section added. After an extended debate on a point of order against the amend ment, the matter went over by unanimous consent. Mr. Mann's amendment would pre scribe in detail how an interstate car rier should incur indebtedness and would prohibit the issuance of stocks. bonds or notes except in return for money or other consideration approved by the Interstate Commerce commis sion. With a permanent corps of experts inquiring into the value ol carriers property, ahe proksed law would make it possible for the Interstate Commerce commission to fix rates on the basis of profit to be realized on actual investments instead of on paper valuations.

Senate Democrats Show Desire to Prevent Confirmation. Washington, D. C President Taft sent more than 200 recess appoint ments to the senate Wednesday, and immediately indications of a move ment 'among some of the Democratic senators to prevent their confirmation became evident. Senatore Gore, it was said, would have the active sup port of several colleagues in holding the movement. The campaign is directed specially against nominations which had been postponed from time to time, thus bringing the new terms close to the beginning of the Democratic adminis tration. Democratic senators contend the president already has deprived the Democrats of the privilege of appoint ing 50,000 postmasters by placing them within the civil service law by a single order. Most of the Democratic senators ex pressed themselves as favorable to i "discriminating obstruction," but sev eral "progressive" senators, whose assistance had been counted on, did not appear to be willing to co-operate, it is said. PLAN IS TO KLOCK HILL LINE Harriman Interest Rush Survey l'p McKcnii Valley. Eugene Intention of the Harriman interests to forestall the Hill pcopl in the building of a railroad up the McKenxie Valley is evidenced by the copy of a resolution of the board of directors of the Oregon & California Railroad company, filed with the sec- ret art of stale and with the Lane county clerk. This resolution authorizes the con traction of a trifle over 24 miles of railroad from a point on the Natron Klamath cut-off, a few miles east of Springtied, up the McKenzie Valley to Martin s rapids, where the Oregon Power company is doing the prelimi narv work on a hydro-electric project The action of the Harriman inter ests came rather as a surprise here, as it was definitely known that Portland Eugene & Eastern surveyors had been at work all summer cheeking up on oKI surveys made when Al Welch first planned the Portland, Eugene A East ern system, and it had boon understood that an electric line was to be built. In fact. President Strahorn. of the Portland, Eugene & Eastern, has made announcement that his company was considering the building of this line, but at that time had no definite news to give out. The Oregon Electric, since it has acquired water power rights at Clear Lake, capable of developing 3.1,000 horsepower, was also popularly sup. posed to be planning the construction of a railroad up the McKenzie. and thence to a junction with the Oregon Trunk east of the Three Sisters.

One of the largest fees ever received into the state treas ury was paid under protest Wednesday by the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad company. A check for $110, 85 was paid to Secretary Doyle as a fee for an extension for 50 years of the road's charter in this state. At torneys for the railroad contend the road is operating under a perpetual charter, but to be on the safe side they decided to take advantage of the recent act of the legislature allowing corporations the right to extend their charters 50 years. The law in question is silent on the subject of fees in connection with such extensions, but the secretary of state held they must be paid. Attorneys for the railroad have given notice that action will be insti tuted in the Supreme court to recover the fee. Marshall Lauds Cooks. Indiana)olis "Good cooks are more necessary than governors," said Gov ernor Marshall in his address before the Indianapolis Council of Women "I think there is no one in this world aside from my wife, that is more com petent than my cook. I think she is well educated. I don't suppose she would be received at many of the so cial functions, but she does her work as it should be done. Any working man in this city doing honest work is more important to this state than the governor of Indiana." Liberty Statue Finished. Berne, Switzerland The statue of Liberty which the United States gov ernment will present to the Philippine Islands and which will be erected at Manila in the near future has been completed by the Swiss sculptor, Herr Kissling, whose design was chosen in an international competition. The statue, which will have cost $1,200,- 000 when delivered at Manila, is a huge work in bronze, consisting of a series of life-size figures dominated by the giant figure of the Philippine na tional hero, Jose Rizal.

An "arson trust," which is charged with having caused the destruction of $1,000,000 worth of property, has been discovered by Wis consin State Fire Marshal Purtell, he said.

Astoria "On Thanksgiving day, 1912, we began the commercial manu facture or oxygen explosives at our Oregon plant." Such was the word contained in a letter received by Frank Patton, cash ier of the Astoria Savings bank, from E. E. Hoffman, president of the Gov ernment Standard Powders company, which is establishing a powder factory at Woods Landing, near the eastern line of Clatsop county. While the manufacture of powder has been started, the construction work is not yet completed and several weeks will necessarily elapse before the plant will be in full operation. As the new mill will utilize by-products that have heretofore been regarded as worthless, its establishment is pre dicted to provide a market for large quantities of material now thrown away. Rich Oil Strike Is Expected. Portland Oil within 30 days is the expectation of the Central Oregon Oil & Gas company, which is sinking its first well in its properties in Harney county about 18 miles south of Burns. J. C. Turney, president of the com pany, who was in Portland this week, from Burns, made this prediction. Should the expected success come upon the enterprise, a pipeline from the Harney County fields to Portland to deliver the product will soon be projected. This has been under con sideration since the preliminary sur veys of the fields were begun in 1909 and the engineers of the company de clare it to be a perfectly feasible plan. The project was begun following the discovery in the wells of the Pacific Livestock company of unmistakable signs or oil and gas, when the drill had reached a depth of only C690 feet. Coos Bay Canning Finished. Marshfield The salmon canning season on Coos Bay and the Coquille river has closed. On the latter water way the co-operative cannery put up about 7000 cases of salmon, and did not have as good a season as usual. In Marshfield, the Tallant cannery had about the most successful season of any of the plants of the county, and turned out about 15,000 cases. The salmon brought to the fishermen of the county quite a large sum of money, and many received employment both aa fishermen and in the canning plants. Oregon Has Small Klondike. Canyon City There is enough gold in the Canyon mountain to cause a stampede on Canyon City almost any day, says the Eagle. Specimens of quartz ami placer gold are taken from the old mountain every day, and the belief is now reigning that a veritable hidden Klondike exists in the old hill side, ine writer on mo r,agie says he uw a 10-pound lard bucket full of the gold displayed on the streets and that little or no interset was created by it, so common has the finding of the precious metal apparently become. DISTRIBUTION IS POOH. AddI f aner! Say Lack of Syitem Throughout Country Apparent Hood Rivr "I hav been attend ing th Spokana appl show and th Portland land and appla show," laid ChrU R. Greisen. formerly aoclate ditor of Better Fruit, who I now with a St. Jowph, Mo., paper. "I find nim of th grower of th North wmI ar a littla DeMimiitic over the market condition of th present ea on' appl erop. My advice to all of these would b to tak a trip over the Middle Wet and tudy the ytem of distribution that prevails, or rather the lack of it. In my mind, that is the great reason for the slow m ment of the year' apple crop. "During the last two month I have been over Nebraska. Missouri, Michl can. Indiana. Western New York, Ohio and other section of the country I find all of the larirer centers, citie that should not only consume apples but be distributing points, chock fuil of fruit. Yet nowhere on the streets, that it, at the stand, can one get ap ple for much less than the usual price. The consumer pay all the way from $3.60 to $6 a box for the fruit. owing to the (ize and grade. "The grower is satisfied with prices for the same fruit ranging from $1,214 to $2 a box. Yet when the consumer has to pay these prices this Is not in creasing the demand for apples, nor is it aiding with the distribution. Ihere is too much profit made between the time the fruit leaves the grower and the time it finds it way into the hands of the consumer." COMPENSATION BILL READY. M.nur Provide Pymnt for Every Kind of Industrial Irjnry. Salem The workmen' com pens tion bill, drafted by the commission ppointed by Governor West, la now completed and will be submitted to the governor at once. It provides for life payment to a workman totally disabled in a hazard ous Industry, and fur life payments to a widow of a workman killed In such an industry. Payments are provided for all manner of accident. All em ployer in hazardous industries come under the provision of the bill, unless they elect to abide by the provisions of the present law. The fund I raised similar to the Washington state plan. The employer pay 3 per cent of hi wage rolls into the fund, the laborer one-half of one per cent of hi wages, and the state pay an amount equal to that paid by the laborer. TO PROTECT STOCK, Nd of Live Stock Sanitary Board Urgsd By Dr. Withycomb. Portland That Oregon is in sad need of a state live stock sanitary board, because of Inefficient work In the state veterinarian' office, was the contention of Dr. James Withycombe. of the Oregon Agricultural college ex periment station, in his address at a meeting of the legislative committee of live stock breeders of Oregon at the Portland commercial club. He also urged a closer federation of the agricultural interests of the state, state assistance for an exhibit of stock and agricultural produce at the Panama exposition. TAFT PRAISES DIPLOMACY Message to Congress Denies Aim Are Purely Material. Washington. l. t - A note of warn ing to European power which by In direct means continue to discriminate HLTuinnt American tra.le; a strong ap peal to the congress to uplift the great foreign policies of America aU.ve I iturtisanship: a iritimnhNiit vindication of the diplo macy of the administration, characterised as that of "dollar ver- us bullets"; a masterful pride In the ,n, ..mansion of Ameruan tr,..l.. . a result of the foreign po" cies of hi administration; and an ear nest apiieal for Joint action ejr iw gresa and the executive to open new markets for American industries -these are the more striking features of President Taft 'a fourth annual me sage sent to congress Tuesday. The message is the first of a series of such communications which he will send to congress in the early days of the session, and ileal entirely with the foreign relations of the I'nited State. Beginning with the usual re ference to the existing gl relation w ith foreign Kwcts, the I resident adds that these have been sliengthened by "a greater insistence Uon justice to American cituens, or interests, wherever it may have been denied. itnd a stronger emphasis of the need of mutuality in commercial and other relations.' For the. find time in its history, says the president, tho Mate depart ment has obtained sulistain lauy ine most -favored-nation treatment from all of the countries of the world. Therefore, he says that it is only nat ural that competitive countries should view with some concern the expansion of our commerce. Hence the warning: If in some instances the measures taken by them to meet It are not en tirely equitable, a remedy should be found." To this end, the president strongly recommends the enactment of the bill recommended by Secretary Knox last December, permitting the government instead of iniMsing the full minimum rates of duty against discriminating countries, to apply a graduated scale of duties, up to the maximum of per cent. Mat tariffs are out or date, says the president. "Nation no longer accord equal tariff treatment to all other nations, irrespective of the treatment from them received. It is very necessary that the American gov- rnment should be cUips with weiions of negotiation and ndapt-d to modem economic condition." The State department, "an archaic and inadequate machine" at the be ginning of this administration, the president says, has become a new or ganization, with highly specialized bu reau and exM-rts dealing w ith every phase of American trade and diplomacy. U. S. TREASURER URGES REFORM Foresees Mcit of $22,556,023 By June 30, 1911. "Unreasoned and l'ncicntiflc Hanking and Currency System Keaponaible for Panic. Washington, D.
