RIGATION BILL HAS GOOD CHANGE Provision for Bonds Is Changed Slightly. CARTER PLAYING POLITICS Committee Substitute ; Will Bear Montanan's Name; TAFT PROMISES SUPPORT Eastern Members Unfriendly, but Insurgents Will Avoid Giving Strength to - 'Western Men . They Hope to Defeat. BY HARRY J. BEITO'S. OREOOXIAT -?.-3VS BUREAU. Wash ington, Feb. 2. The prospects for the passage of a bill to raise additional money to complete Government irrigation proj ects now undor way is brighter today than at any time since the session of Congress opened. The bill Is not out of the woods, by a great deal, but conditions are shaping up in a way that Is encour aging to those Western Senators and Representatives who are most concerned In this legislation, and It is their judg ment that the chances are now rather in favor of than against some sort of meas ure providing about $30,000,000 additional. Bonds Changed In Xante. After a series of delays, the Senate committee on irrigation by unanimous vote, reported a substitute for the Borah bill, but the substitute differs in no im portant particular from the bill drawn Jointly by Senator Borah and Secretary Baillnger. save that the name of the se curities proposed to' be issued is changed from "bonds" to "certificates of Indebted ness." The terms and conditions upon which these certificates are to be put forth, however, makes thein 'bonds in all but name, and Senator Eorali Is willing this alteration shall stand so long as those who insisted ,upon It work honestly and faithfully to secure the passage of the amended bill. This, also, is the stand taken by Pres ident Taft. who. although he reeom mended and preferred bonds, said he would be willing to accept some other designation if, by so doing, the friends of irrigation could gain the support of men who had announced their antagon ism to bonds. Test of Sincerity Coining. It soon will be demonstrated whether the change from "bonds" to "certifi cates" was made for an honest purpose. or whether the change was merely step in the direction of defeating the movement altogether. Ostensibly, the change was made primarily because Speaker Cannon had informed Chairman Carter that a bill authorizing the issu ance of bonds could not pass the House it being his judgment, according to Car ter, that the general antipathy to bonds (Concluded on Page 3.)

The social set of the Oharlestown TSTavy-Yard. which has crowded the big dance hall three times this week at the court-martial of Pay master George P. AuW. accused of con duct unbecoming a gentleman and offl cer, just missed hearing today, irom one woman witness, what she insisted was the real cause of the ejectment of Dr. E. S. Cowles from the dance December 11. Mies Margaret Ames, daughter of Dr. Ames, of the Navy, wanted to tell the cause, but the court preferred to hear Paymaster Auld's version. Day Spent in Defense. The day's session was practically given im to the officer's defense of himself. It appeared, from his statement, that sev eral of the dancing set at the yard dis cussed Dr. Cowles for days before the dance, and Mr. Auld said that he then received permission from Miss Arties to have Dr. Cowles kept from the dance on account of certain stories In which the name of Miss Dorothy Hesler, of Evans ton, 111., was involved. Auld Denies Striking Him. Then came the incident at the. dance when Mr. Auld asked Dr. Cowles to re tire from the hall following Winch tile two met in the corridor below .and con tinued their altercation, in which Dr. A. S. Robnett is accused of taking part. Mr. Auld denied today that he struck Dr. Cowles, but admitted that he took him by the shoulders and that, in the wrestling which ensued. Dr. Cowles was thrown to the floor. Mr. Auld eald that he considered that he was acting for the dance commission in . spee-king to Dr. Cowles, whom he personally did not think a proper guest at the dance. Arguments Begin Today. This practically concluded the testi mony In the case and tomorrow afternoon the argument will be concluded. Dr. Robnett's trial on a similar charge Is expected to begin Friday.

EAPTH paTfv LICKING OF STAMPS, DISTASTEFUL TASK GKESIIAM RCRAL CARRIERS SEEK BAN OX CUSTOM. Mailmen Say Wrapping; of Coins Occasions Delay Tliey Try to Educate Patrons. . GRESHAM, Or.. Feb. 2. Spet ial.) Tkural carriers here declare that tixo Post office Department order relieving carriers from collecting: coins from mail boxes, unless they are wrapped, docs not give them the relief they sought. They say that the real nuisance forces them to collect , small change for un stamped letters and cards and. upon their return, to the postoffice, to lick, stamps for their patrons, sometimes to the extent of 60 or 80 after each trip. That was the complaint made to the department, and the carriers asked that unstamped mail be left in the boxes as unmailable until stamps were affixed by the senders. One carrier here says he found a large piece of paper folded neatly about 20 times and fastened securely with a pin. After opening it he found two pennies to pay postage on an un stamped letter. Not content with com pelling the carrier to open the little package before leaving the box, with the mercury at zero, the patron re quired the carrier to take the letter to the postoffice and lick the stamps. The Jettercarrlers say they are try ing to educate their patrons to keep a few stamps on hand and do their own licking. If the people get to folding their money in papers or envelopes, say the carriers, much delay will be caused and no good will result, but present conditions will only be made worse.

TOO OLD FOR SLEDGE WORK National Cieographie Society Asked to Join Peary Arctic Club in Financ ing Knterprise Pole May Be Beached Dec. 31, 1911. WASHINGTON' Feb. S. Commander Robert K. Peary, discoverer of the North Pofe, lias made a proposition to the National Geographic Society which, if accepted, will mean that an Ameri can expedition will be on Its way to discover the unconquered South Pole next Fall. On behalf of the Peary Arctic Club, of New York, Commander Peary sug gested that the club and the Geographic Society fit up a Joint expedition to reach the South Pole. The club, he said, would contribute the steamship Roose velt, worth $150,000. provided the Na tional Geographic Society would find the first $60,000 toward the cost of the expedition, all expenses above that sum to be divided equally between the two organizations. Peary estimates the total cost would be from $75,000 to $100,000. v Kcach South Pole Dec. 31, 1911. The proposed expedition would start next Fall and would reach Coast Land about March, 1911. This point Is direct ly opposite the base of the British South Polar expedition. The two camps would be about 2000 miles apart and approximately . tlie, sama .distance from the Pole. It is s"Umated the explorers could reach the South. Pole about De cember 31, 1911. Commander Peary's proposal was re ceived with enthusiasm by the mem bers of the board of managers of the Geographic Society, but no positive action was taken. The matter was referred to the finance and research committees with instructions to report at a special moeting. Peary Will Not Lead Party.- It is believed the society will accept the proposal. ' Commander Peary said he would not conduct the expedition in person, as the sfedge work required so much physical exertion that It needed a younger man than he to undertake it. ROADBED PLAN FAVORED Southern Pacific Officials View Pro posed Newport Extension. ELK CITT, Or., Feb. 2. Special. 1 A party of Southern Pacific Railroad officials consisting of General Superin tendent M. J. Buckley, Superintendent R. Fields, Chief Engineer G. W. Bosehke, Assistant Engineer Russell Chase, Superintendent J. T. Walsh, of the Corvallis & Eastern division, and Superintendent of Bridges J. H. Stev ens took lunch here today on their re turn from a tour of Inspection over the proposed' extension between Ya untr.a City and Newport. None of the officials would give it out as a state ment that work on the extension would be started at once, but it was intimated that an effort will be made to carry a part, at least, of the coming Summer excursion traffic all the way to New port by rail. The fact that a party of surveyors is at work on this end of the Cor vallis & Eastern, remapping the line, and that the party of officials has viewed the extension route for a road bed in the solid rock and earth for mation at an estimated cost of $130. 000. rather than the easier way of building a trestle over the mud flats, presages another phase ,of develop ment.
