THE MORNLXG OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY. 1, 1905. OUSHMAN STEPS IN Now Wants to Name Post master for Tacoma. 'has clash with foster Senator's Defeat Causes Attempt to Snatch Promised Prize From His Friend Lecrone Cushman May Block Confirmation. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Jan. 3L The "Washington delega tion is likely to have another Postoffice scrap on Its hands when Senator Foster returns. The term of Postmaster Crom well, at Tacoma, expired a year ago, but Foster has never recommended a suc cessor, and did not Intend to do so until after the Senatorial election, though he had decided upon State Senator Lecrone for the place. Now that Foster has been defeated, and Is about to leave the Sen ate. Representative Cushman. comes for ward with the claim that he. and not Foster, is entitled to name the Tacoma Postmatser. Foster will undoubtedly insist upon his right, which Cushman will combat. If Cushman can prevent the appointment or confirmation of a Foster man, and can .stave off action until March 4, ho will bo allowed to name a successor to Cromwell, otherwise Foster is apparently likely to win out. Cushman has his dander up, and Is pre paring to make things lively In Foster's camp, unless Foster consults him. It promises to be as lively a fight as that over the Seattle Postmastersbip. PROUD OF HIS VICTORY. Representative Jones Talks of How to Get Celilo Canal Appropriation. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Feb. 1. Representative W. L. Jones, of Washington, who has been a staunch friend of the Columbia River, as well as of projects in his own state, la highly elated at the success attending his first attempt as a member of tho com mittee at getting money for river and harbor improvements. Speaking of his fight, which was a hard one, the hardest made by any member of the committee, Representative Jones said: In the framing of the river and harbor bill we are confronted with more difficulties In regard to our projects than any other fttate. The projects In which our people aro especially interested are very large: for In stance, the estimates to complete the Im provements from tho mouth of the Colum bia River beyond The Dalles amount to over $8,000,000, and for the improvement of the Lake "Washington Canal the present estimate is over $7,000,000. We were limited In the amount carried by the bill to about $30,000,000 or $35,000. 000. or about one-half of former bills. Thus It will be seen that these two projects alone would call for about half the amount car ried In the bill. Upon tho Lake Washington Canal and the Tacoma projects we were further handi capped by adverse reports of the Board of Engineers, and one of tho rules adopted In framing the bill was to put on no projects which had been adversely reported. The project In which I was more Interested than any other single project was the improve ment of the Columbia River at The Dalles because I felt that the removal of this ob struction in the river means more to more people than any other project In the North west. WJth reference to this project we were confronted with tho fact that a very large appropriation would havo to be made, at the mouth of the river upon the work al ready begun and upon which a large sum of money has been expended rad,. if we did not make a large appropriation, the Government would lose a large amount of money. We had the further difficulty with this project that it would cost in round numbers $4,000,000. so that, to provide for It in Its entirety by continuing contract. In a $30,000,000 bill, was an impossibility. It also was objected that. If this obstruction was overcome, there were so many other obstructions in the upper part of the river that it would not be of much benefit, and. also, that any appropriation at this time would absolutely commit the Government to the completion of the project. These objec tions finally were overcome and $300,000 appropriated, which, with the sum already on hand, makes nearly $500,000 available for carrying on this work during the next two years and in my Judgment, insures the continued prosecution of the work until the obstruction is removed. Then. too. we will have no difficulty In continuing provi sions in the next river and harbor bill for tho prosecution of this work, which is a most important item. I can think of nothing that will bo of more benefit to the farm ers and psople generally of Eajtcrn Wash ington than will be done for them by rea son of securing this appropriation. I want to KUggest for the consideration of the people of Eastern Washington and of Oregon the advisability of raising a sum of money in some way to be expended In re moving obstacles in the river at "Umatilla and Wallula Rapids and up the Snake River, so that, when the Dalles canal is completed there will be no question about the river being available for the transportation of the products of tho Inland Empire. In my judgment. If a sum of money equal to that to be expended in the construction of the portage road at The Daltcs could be raised and should be expended In bettering, the conditions of the navigation of the river above The Dalles, it would be of incalcula ble benefit. It is very gratifying to me that I have been able- to do something toward insuring the prosecution and completion of a work so long desired and from which we expect so much benefit. SETBACK FOR BEVERIDGE. Old Senators Resent His Youth, and May Sidetrack His Statehood Bill. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Jan. SL Considerable sympathy Is expressed for Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, who has been put forward to "hold the bag" In regard to the Joint statehood bill. Beveridge has been led to believe that he could pass the bill, and has been very active and vigorous in pushing it before, the Senate, Insisting upon a vote being- taken and trying by every method to get It through. Just as Quay tried two years ago to get the three-state bill through. In fact, Bev eridge has been Just as actlvo in press ing the bill this session as ho was In opposing- a like bill in the last Congress. Beveridge Is a very brilliant man, an able man, and Is bound to make his mark In the Senate. He has already es tablished himself, and, although at times he has suffered something in the way of a setback from the old Senators who re sent having- a new man pushing himself forward too rapidly, he has at the- same time been able to hold his own and to handle himself In a way to show that he does not need very much sympathy from any one. In the statehood bill there Is a suspicion that the older Senators took tho method that has been pursued to accomplish two purposes, one to defeat any legislation for the admission of new stftes and the other to give Beveridge a setback, and show that he has-been crowding himself for ward more rapidly than his length of service In the Senate would warrant. It Is the general impression that, having been successful two years ago in defeating the bill, he got set up a little, and that the blocking of the pending bill will have the effect of showing him that he cannot always have his own way.
