RECOMMENDED BY BOARD Reports of Kngincers Favor Expen ditures on Coos Bar, Tillamook Bay and Coquille River for Jetty Work. OREOONIAN'XEWS BCREAt. Wash Inirton. Dev. 12. The river anil harbor commllttee. In framing Its bill this Winter, will not only rlve considera tion to the recommendations and estl. mates contained In the annual report of th Chief of Engineers, but to spe cial reports and estimates sent to Con - irress last session. Included among the I ...... nrt on Coos Bay. Til lamook Piv and Coauille River, Ore Ron. and Inasmuch as appropriations v v...,. nrc.H for all these places. all are likelv to be provided for in the bill as It comes from the committee. Colonel Roessler, until recently en gineer officer !n charge of Oregon .rkr submitted a report last Winter, In which he recommended the appro ..i.u. of IMin vo for the improve . ih. n trance and channel of -a.,.- -lth an additional approprl atio'n of $60,000 annually for mainte nance. His recommendation was ln j i v y.m E-nrlneer Board, and by the Chief of Engineers and Secretary of -fi--- n.incr thus indorsen. n . I."- .v,. of Congress which will i,,.Hfv an annronrlation in keeping with the needs of the project, and while the full amount asked may not be granted. It is assured that at least ufficlent money will be appropriated to start the work. Outlines Two Plans. Asa matter of fact. Colonel Roessler -..i i..- n-o nroiects. the one out- . . n.l n more extensive project. which, it is estimated, would cost $-.-100 500. The latter expenditure he did not consider to be justified by present commerce, of that likely to develop in i.jl.t future. Inasmuch as the i ... nOTot is Incorporated In the ....-,.,- the more expensive work can he taken up at some iuioic the commerce of Coos Bay has grown to such proportions as will justify this great outlay of money, it is n-ou. tho finvernment has already built a north jolty at the entrance of Coos Kay. thereby producing a "-tooi cuwr nel over the bar. and work on the in side has provided a channel which en . KT.. drawing 1 feet to pro- -i it.iarhfteld 13 miles from tlie' .nrsr,o However. several shoals . . ... vn created In the Inner channel. over which tnere Is now a depth of nniv -i fet st low water. tU ..-i.wlnir the report of Colonel Roessler the Engineer Board, which is really the court of last resort, had this to say: The Improvement now desired Is some additional depth at the bar entrance and .t,. raiom of . suitable . channels throuicn .v.. .hulm tin to the lain of Marshfleld. so to permit vessels of moderate IM to use the bv at all stages, and the lanre.t ones likelv to come in at high lazes. It is stated that IS feet In the bay at mean low Ode and some Increased deptn h hr will meet these requirements. To secure this end, the district officer pre ..nn two olans. the first one Involving jr.Hrtr ione at a cost of H'OO.OOO and an annual expenditure for maintenance of f.o. OOO. The other plan Includes all work pro posed under the first plan. and. In addition thereto, provides for retorlnB the north J.tty where beaten down, extending it 1000 feet farther and building a south Jetty 2K0O feet Ion. The cost of this plan is so too -.on wtth ft n annual cost for main- ii.anl.i nf 180.000. Alter niscunsins; mo -commerce of the nort. present and pros pective, the district officer concludes that h eToendltur Involved in the more cer tain thouKh expensive plan Is not Justified. but that the locality Is worthy of Improve ment under the first plan .suggested. Work not Justified. After a full study and discussion of the iihiect. the Board has arrived at the con clusion that the work of restoring- and extending the jetties is not justified by the present and prospective commerce Involved, but that the locality is worthy of Improve ment by dredging In accordance with plan 1 at an estimated cost of SJOO.000. This p:sn hss the decided advantage of provid ing a first-class sesgolng dredge which may, perhaps, be available for use at other localities. If It Is found from experience that Ita use will not he continuously re. quired at Coos Bay to maintain the necea- earr depth. Colonel Roessler, in speaking of the dredging proposed In the upper chan nel, said: A depth nf IS feet at mean lower low tide will sdequately accommodate at all atagea of -the tide the regular steamers feet draft at mean high tide, the mean tldsl range being five feet. The width of channel proposed Is 3O0 feet opposite the towns of North Bend and Marshfleld and 2O0 feet at other points. To excavate such a channel will require the dredging of 1. ooo.ooo cubic yards of material, and if authorised, it la proposed to do this with a scow dredpe now under construction for the Coast harbors under an appropriation in the last river and harbor act. Tvvo Jetties) Vrged. Past work at- Tillamook Bay has. provided a channel 11 feet deep from the entrance of Tillamook Bay to the town of Tillamook. There lias never been any improvement of the ocean bar at the harbor entrance, Local in terests on Tillamook Bay urged the construction of two jetties at the en trance to tiie bay, to increase the channel depth across the bar, and also urged great improvement of the clian . nel through Hoquarten Slough. Colo nel Roessler reported that the heavy ' cost of these two proposed Improve ments la far too great to justify the Government In undertaking them at this time, and his view is indoresed by his superiors. He says, however: The only Improvement that the traffic situation seems to warrant and seriously to require is a maintenance of present depths, and It is recommended that enough work be authorized to accomplish this, at least, until the bay obtains Its long-hoped-for railroad. Heretofore the maintenance of the channel depth has required annuRl dredging In order to clean out the deposit of gravel, sand, and mud brought down by the tributaries of the bay In the freshet period, and from past experience it has been found that $ yearly Is about the least sum that will do the work. In ad dition to this item for maintenance, there urgent need for the repair of several of the dikes by placing therein some new piling and some additional atone. Ten thousand dollars would suffice to restore the dikes to fair condition, but the more urgent repairs can probably be made with Jo00l In view of the above, and In conclusion, T have the honor to recommend that the Jmpre-vements already made he maintained for the present by an appropriation of S5OO0 for the most urgent work to the dikes, and by an appropriation of 5000 anfiually for maintenance. Indorsed by Board. The Engineer Board and Chief of .Engineer indorse thta recommendation and ioia -In, asking for 15000 lor lm- OREGON ITERS provements and $5000 annually for maintenance. .As a result of work heretofore dona by the Government on. Coquille River, vessels drawing 12 feet can cross the bar and ascend to Coquille. a distance of 25 miles. However, it is the opin ion of the engineers i..at an appropri ation of $27,840 is necessary to re move certain obstructions that tend to. impair the utilization of this channel to its fullest capacity, and they ask an annual appropriation of itnoo for maintaining an open channel, after ex isting obstacles have been removed. In ("peaking- of the proposed improve ment which he recommends. Colonel Roessler" says: Xo further extension of the Jetties be yond that heretofore aithnriid ts con templated. The Improvements desired are within and above the entrance, and these consist in the removal of euhmerKed rocks near the entrance In the vicinity of Han don, which are a menace to vessel, and tha deepcafnir of three shoals above Bandon. NATIONAL W. C. T. U. WORK Mrs. I'nrnli Gives Report on Kecent Denver Convention. POIITLANT). Dec. 12. (To the Editor.) The National W. C. T. XT. convention which met recently in Denver, reached the high-water mark 1n point of enthusi asm, and the reports of work and vic tories were such as to warrant .all that was asserted. While, because of the proximity of the National election,' which made it needful for many women to be at home to watch the local option and other moral Issues, the delegation was not up to tUe record of previous years yet the convention was the strongest ever experienced in our his tory. The echo which ran through the gathering was well-voiced in the snng which was so often heard, "The Nation la Going Dry." .Mrs. Graham, our musi cal director, was In fine voice, the audi ence in' he humor to follow her leading and the numerous jubilant melodies which I swelled to the roof of the great audience roora were calculated . to arouse Intense enthusiasm. The "dry" map showing the prohibi tion and local option territory In white was greeted with an ovation when it was first dropped from the ceiling over tha platform. Mrs. Margaret Dye tho Ix-Klslative superintendent of the National prwuched the annual sermon and It was pronounced a wonderful exposition of the peaceful warfare which we wage in the me of the Christ in whose name we have aet up our banners. Mrs. Stevens' presidential address, always masterly. this year excelled all previous ones and is a paper which should be In the hands of every reformer, giving as It does a good review of the moral revolution in tha midst of which we find ourselves. No previous year has witnessed so great victories In the matter of outlaw ing the saloon and the solution of the social problem. As touching the latter. all of the departments which dial witii the social question show a decided ad vance, both in rescue and preventive work. The "white slave" trade, whilo still unconquered, does not flaunt itself so boldly, and the work among: all classes notably in the fathers', mothers' and par ents' meetings gives hope of stopping the supply for the slums, and saving the men as well as the women. A steadily growing respect for the single standard of personal purity among men and wo men Is the most hopeful sign of this reform. No year has marked so large an increase In our membership as this. Tills signifies that wtrmen are learning that the . C T. V. Is a good place for Christian women to make themselves a power In solvms the problems which concern the home. Hon. Seaborn Wright, who is said to be the finest speaker on reform lines in the United States, was the speaker or Sun day evening and well justified the expec tations of the great audience which crowded the vast auditorium to the ut most, and which sat in quietness for more than an hour while he expounded the awfully un-American policy of capitaliza tion of vice. Another speaker, -who was heard with gladness, was that good friend of the W. C. T. U. and everything which Involves the interest of the home. Judge Ben Lind say, the foremost Juvenll; court Judge In the world. He was given an ovation which lasted many minutes upon his first appearance and was frequently inter rupted with, long and enthusiastic applause during his address. He declared that it was only by .the women's votes that lie could possibly be elected as he had aroused the enmity of the bosses by his showing up of 'their graft and dishonesty. It would be well for opponents of woman suffrage on the plea that it would not make conditions any better, to study well the vote which gave the "Kids' -Jedge" back to his work for the saving of the outcast boy and the prevention of vice to the homeless one. One cannot be long In Colorado before one will see the lasting benetlt which tiio woman's ballot is to the moral strusgit In that state. The Oregon delegation, which consisted of Mrs. Henrietta Brown state president. iMrs. Ada L'nruh. state corresponding secretary, Mrs. Harford vice-president, Mrs. Ida Marsters, record ing secretary, Mrs. Neal Inman, presi dent of the Portland Central. Mrs. Mor gan, Mrs. Scott and daughter, of St. John, were proud to report on all possi ble occasions tiiat Oregon was not behind others in progress and that consequently it was among the great majority with looal option and anticipating stato pro hibition In the near fuiure. We took occasion to advertise incidentally the big red apples for which Oregon is famed, as well as the roses of our own city. Of no one thing were we more proud than the initiative and referendum and what it has given us as a state. The least reference to thia aroused applause, and many questions were asked of dele gates regarding It. A song that made ttself in that company where original things grow, well voices the spirit of the entire gathering: The distillery, the brewery and the winery all must go. The saloons can stay no longer when the peo ple have said "No?" We11 HKltate and organize and surely win the fight. For we'll work for prohibition till w makt the map all white. ADA WAI.LACB Uls'RUH. JAIL TERM FOR RINEHART Man Who Squeezed Sister Will Serve Year Behind Bars. VANCOUVER, Wash., Pec. 11. (Spe cial.) Edgar Rinehart, of Portland, who came to Vancouver, hecame intoxi cated, went out to the ranch where his mother and sister live, grabbed his Bis ter. Miss Hattle Rinehart. around the waist in a tierce gTip' and almost squeezed her to death, was arraigned before Judge MCredie. of the Superior Court. this morning. Rinehart was charged (With assault and battery. The judge asked him if he were guilty or not, and he replied: "I am guilty and do not ask for mercy or leniency. Give me the limit of the law. as I know I deserve It. And If I ever come fcefcre you again on a similar churge, give me death." The judge imposed a jail sentence of one year and a fine of $1000, but later It was found that only one sentence could be imposed, and as Rinehart has 110 money he will serve the Jail sentence- Indians to Play In Portland.'

WILL SEIZE UPQF NEW REGULATION Advocates of Free Lumber Ex pected to Take Advantage of the Act. INCREASE TIMBER DEMAND Rules or Land Office Will Boost Prices of Holdings Owned' ut ' Present. Respite Aereago' Still Left Vnlouclicd. OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Ioc. 11'. Tin- now r guiations. recently promulgated by i-'ocretary tiur fieid lor the enforcement of the tim ber and .tone net, will he s'-ized upon by the advocates of free lumber, and the si-mif ioance of the order will be brought to tlit; attention of the House committee on ways and moans. There are interested parties now in Washing ton wiio fuliy appreciate the effect of tlie regulations, and tin y deem it their duty to use this ammunition to their own ad vantage, as far as possible. It is ncimitted by several offfeials who wore parties to the fr.'tmir.qr of the new regulations, under directions from tho i-ecretriry, that vory little (rovernment timber land will be sold at stumpaije value in the near future. The fact that tlie regulations will greatly lncrea-?e the price 'of o'overnment tim ber land, and the furtiier fact that all manner of red tape must be grone through in order to acquire title, will have the effect of scuriiiiJ off pros pective timber entrymen, and they will turn cither to private owners of tim ber land or to the forest reserves. Will Boost Prices. The feet tli.u there will be an In creased demand for timber, vi!i, it is argued, be taken hy owners of stump age as justification for boosting tlie price of tluir timlier. If stimipafce titkes another ri.se it will be felt by tlie ultimate .purchaser of lumber, who is already complaining of the price he has to pay, and tlto cry for free lum ber will be redoubled. The demand for free lumber is already t.troity; the House committee is predisiiosjed to heed the demand, but if it is shown that tlie Interior Department, through its new regulations, has strengthened the monopoly of timber lands in private ownership, theieby enabling private holders to demand even higher prices for logs than now prevail, the commit tee will feol entirely justified ih ac ceding to the demand from tiie Eastern and Prairie States. Amona- Government officials, the Sec- Vetary's regulations are viewed vari ously. Defenders of the order take the attitude that the department will be able to hold down tlie price of timber in the open market, lor if tlie private owners of etumpaxe advance their prices beyond what is reasonable, tlie Government, by selling at a fair price. will either compel tiniber-lund owners to meet tlie Government price or force 1h-m t,i tntii.iM.l 1 w.T, c- '1-1. n friends of the order further firj'oe that I there is an abundance of mature tim ber in tiie foreot reserves. 'which is al ways available and which can always bo had upon payment of the stumpage value. ?'ureha?ers of reserve timber, it is added, have tiie advantage of buy ing only the largest trees, whereas tlie man who buys a quarter-section must take larye and small, good and bad, arf they run. Reserve Timber Remote. lint there is another faction amonar the Government officials wiio do not see so much good growing out of tlie new regulations. While it is true that timber can now be bought cheaper from forest reserve than under tlie timber and stone aet, yet it is true, in most in stances that reserve timber is remold from market: remote from a raUroud and difficult to tet out of the forest. Moreover, many lumbermen still object to the restrictions placed upon pur chasers of reserve timber, and for that reason they hesitate about oing into a resorve for their timber supply. As for the argument that land sold under the timber and stone aet will regulate the price of stumpago in any given neighborhood. It is declared that most all of the desirable Government timber land in already reserved or In private owneiship. What remains subject to entry is either of comparnti vdy poor quality, or is so far removed from lines of transportation as to render It undesirable at tills time. Lumber In remote districts, even though tlie price be low, cannot, they argue, regulate the price of lumber near a railroad, or accessible to a big mill. For these rea sons it is contended that tlie regula tions will not, for the timo being at le'iist, have the beneficial effect that was intended. 'I he main reason Xor amending the timber and stone regulations was to deiive more revenue from the sale of timber l.uuls. It is admitted that $2.50 per acre is a - very low price for a I quarter - section of the best timber land In Oregon, Washington or North ern Idaho. It was Jir. Garfield's view, as well as tiie view of Mr. IMnehot, that the Government should derive more revenue from Its lumber. Therefore advantage was taken of the wording nf the timber and stone act, which stipu lates that such land -shall be -sold at a "minimum' price of .J.r.O per acre." and the new regulations arc the resuit- To Benefit HeeliuiiatlonFnnil. In I lie opinion cf tlie Reclamation Serviie the regulations, nt some future lime, may operate to the benefit of the reclamation fund, hut obviously tiie fund will not In m fit until tlie more ac cessible timber has been cut, and lum bermen are forced to go into the more remote districts; those districts where there is still Government timber land of merchantable size. In the immediate future tiie recI.rma.tion fund will suf fer, for sales wiil fall oft. and almost stop, and in tlie immediate future tlie increase in price will hot be ample to offset the decline In number of pur chases. With these facts In mind. Senators and Congressmen from tlie timber states will, unquestionably have some thing to say this session, and Secre tary Garfield's order is at least sure to be fully discussed.
