RA NEW ARRIVALS mm or BIG (Ml Beware of him, who without cause, , MMfM M tf develops a sudden friendship for you. Washington, Sept. 9. That the Pan ama canal, one of the greatest engi neering projects of modern times, will be dedicated by a president whose front name is William, now appears probable. Reports received at the war department in the last few weeks show constantly. Increasing speed and efficiency In "the construction of the big dhch, and It Is far from Impopsl ble that the' canal will be so far fin Ished four years hence that vessels can use It. If the hopes of the war department officials meet fulfillment, the next president will have the honor of ded icating the canal, and his name will thus become Inseparably connected with the gigantic project. Not In re cent years has such fame been thrust upon a chief executive of the nation, and in the contest between Mr. Taft and Mr. Bryan thus assumes added significance. In any advent, the canal question Is no longer In politics, and whether the next administration Is headed by Taft or Bryan, the work will be pushed with all possible energy. Under the army engineers, the work Is going forward regardless of season or weather. Every report received from Colonel Qoethals brings a smile to the face of General Luke E. Wright, the new head of the war department, since it bears news of added speed and difficulties conquered. The July report of excavation Is a most encouraging one. It establishes a new record for the rainy season. The grand total of earth removed was 2.1C8.840 cubic yards, all of which ex rept 122.884 cubic yards was taken from the canal prism. This Is 108, 644 cubic yards more than the record for June end 111,480 yards short of (he highest dry season record, that of March, 1807, It shows anlncrease of 2,105,115 cubic yards. This comparison with July of last ysr shows what tremendous strides have been made In the matter of ro- mqvln gdtrt from the-canal prism In the rainy season. oMreover, the rain fall of July, this year, was heavy. The average was 11.14 Inches, as com pared with 10 Inches In June, the pre ceding month, and 10.13 Inches in July, 1907. It would be a strange thing, In the light of the calculations that have been made as to the time required for completion of the canal, If he administration following that of Mr. Roosevelt should see the canal sufficiently finished for traffic. Yet, It Is not Impossible that this will be the case, as the most sober-minded of the canal officials are coming to view It.

I IN THE Masonic BIS!. I Bill to Be Introduced In Lcahdatiire Prohibiting Kale In Oregon. The beglnntng of the year 1909 may witness the extermination of the sale of cigarettes in Oregon. Representa tive-elect Charles McDonald of Mult nomah county has drafted a bill which he will introduce at the coming term of the state legislature, having for Its purpose the utter extermination of the cigarette In the Beaver state. Even substitutes for the "pill" will be placed under the ban and anyone caught giving or selling the "mak ings" will be subject to fine and if the fine Is not paid then off to prison he or she, as (he case may be, must go, if the law Is effected. , , Conservative statistics show that CO0.0O0 cigarettes are smoked daily In Oregon. The figure may reach 800,- 000 for the (09,000 dally consumption la based on 40 per cent of the voters smokers only 10 of the "clgs" a day, and any cigarette smoker will con fess that 10 cigarettes Is a niggardly allowance and should be SO or 80. Then, again, mors than 40 per cent of the voters use cigarettes and many who are not voters are heavy custom ers. The "makings" sold In this state in a, week run into several thousand dollars. !
