Inferred that bribe money had been
afloat previous to his veto of the
franchise for the company to cross the
Willamette River and operate through
certain Salem streets with Its steam

"I don't consider the Mayor's re

His talk Is all a Blurt, tie can t say
definitely that bribe money was of
fered him."
Mr. Gerllnger added that the com

the Improvements for which the Salem
City Council granted the franchise.
-The fact that the Council voted iz
to 2 over the Mayor's veto In our favor
Is sufficient proof that we have a Just
cause and that there waa no occasion
for using dishonest methods.
The bridge which the company pro
poses to build, together with the
terminal Improvements in the City of

of $200,000. This money will be spent

Minister of the Dominion, In the first
speech he haa delivered In the reciproc
ity debate.
ills views against annexation and for
good relations were especially empha
sised. The Premier's remarks were re
ceived with approving demonstrations.
Describing his ideal of the relation
ship between the United States and
Canada, Sir Wilfrid said:
"There perhaps may be a spectacle
of two peoples living- side by side,
separated only by an Invisible line,
with not a gun frowning across It. not
a fortress, on either side, wtih no ar
mament one against the other, but
living in harmony. In mutual confi
dence and with no other rivalry than
a generous emulation In commerce and
arts of peace.
' "To the Canadian people I would say
that If It is possible for us to obtain
such relations between these two
young and growing nations, Canada
will have rendered to old England, the
mother of Nations nay, to the whole
British empire a service unequaled In
its present effect and still more In Its
far-reaching consequences.
"I think I can venture the assertion
that the policy Involved In the agree
ment has met with the enthusiastic:
approbation of the majority of the Ca
nadian people. I am perfectly aware
that the policy has not been universally
accepted and has met In some quarters
rather stubborn opposition.
"We are above all an agricultural
people. Our object today Is to open
the door to American markets; and
shall we be told that, because such an
arrangement Is to go Into effect and
Canadian vegetables, cereals and fruits
can be eaten free of duty by the Amer
ican people, it wlir be all over with
the . Canadian federation and even
the British empire will reel upon Its
foundation?"
Sir Wilfrid denied the agreement
would divert Canadian trade to Amer
ican channels.
ASYLUM BIDS WANTED
BOARD IS PREPARING FOR
BBAXCH WORK.
Contractors to Supervise Laying; of
Pipelines, b'nt Convict Labor
May BeTsed to Grade.
8ALEM, Or., March 7. (Special.) Ten
tative plans of the State Board to use
convict labor In constructing the main
water pipelines from Pendleton to the
new Eastern Oregon Branch Insane Asy
lum have been supplanted by advertise
ment for contract olds Just Issued by the
Board for private contractors to take
charge of this work. The bids are to be
opened March 20, showing that it is the
intention of the Board to rush the work
as fast as possible, that an early start
may be made on the buildings and
grounds.
Governor West said that there Is a
possibility of convict labor being used
in connection with portions' of the Im
provement work at the new hospital, but
the Board has reached no definite de
cision in this respect. If convicts. are
requisitioned for tho work by the Gov
ernor It will be for grading and general
improvement of the grounds and will
probably not bg until after the buildings
are well along toward completion.
The Board has now secured three of the
four tracts of additional land, or will
secure the third tract in a few days. The
third tract In question Is kqown as the
Myers tract and Includes 28 acres neces
sary for dyking purposes, but at the same
time contains land available for garden
and farming purposes. The Board will
pay $0000 for the land.
The Hendricks tract of 10 acres Is still
unsecured. The owner holds it at $450
an acre and the State Board declares
this is too much. Either condemnation
proceedings or a compromise must ensue.
The Roberts tract of M acres, for which
an option was secured by the old Board,
has been purchased. This lies along the
Umatilla River and controls water power
rights. On another tract of five acres
are some orchards and Improvements'.
This was secured for $2500 under an op
tion from the old Board
Engineer Stevens, of the Corvallls A
Eastern, has submitted his report to the
Board and recommends a reinforced con
crete dyke. This Is for the protection
of the buildings and the bottom lands In
the bend. At present there Is a wooden
dyke, propped by piling, but this Is Inse
cure and is not of sufficient length to
suit the needs of the state. The Board
estimates that the proposed concrete
dyke will cost $10,000.
PAVING PROCESS ADOPTED
St. Johns Councilman Accuses Con
struction Company of Bulldozing.
8T. JOHNS. Or- March 7. (Special.)
Westrumlte as a paving process was
finally adopted at a meeting' of the
St. Johns Council after a bitter fight
tonight, when a motion to postpone
the final acceptance of the material
for the downtown streets was defeated
by a vote of 6 to 2. J. S. Downey,
Councilman, accused the Warren Con
struction Company of trying to "bull
dose" the St. Johns Council and taxpay
ers Into declining to accept the West
rumlte Company's paving material, al
ready accepted for the business
streets.
The motion had been put to a rote
and was about to be carried when Mr.
Downey took the floor. W. R. Kean
also defended the use of the material,
basing his defense on a trip he had
made to the East to Investigate it.
William Llnd, a contractor, and the
city engineer, sought to have the final
acceptance delayed until it could be
seen what Portland would do toward
accepting or rejecting the material.
