all are likelv to be provided for in the

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

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

-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

feet farther and building a south Jetty

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-

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

within and above the entrance, and these
consist in the removal of euhmerKed rocks

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

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.

there is an abundance of mature tim
ber in tiie foreot reserves. 'which is al

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.
