He said the "danger had all been run. anu mm. me hl had come through without me loss oi a single man. Mr. Taft-tlianked the Con gressmen and the Governors for having resorted to the humiliating device of land transportation at one stage of the Journey. The President declared no progress had been made In river navigation in this country in the last 40 or 45 years. ' The waterways of this country. Mr. Taft declared, must be used eventually . to carry the bulk of heavy merchan dise. Bonds for Deep Waterways. The President's declaration that ha favored the issuance of bonds for carry ing out the Ohio River improvements as on of the approved projects of inland waterways, called out a burst of ap. plause. The Onio River Improvement will cost 63,00O.0OO. Mr. Taft said he also favored bonds for all other Improvements, including the Mississippi, Just as soon as a feasi ble project can be decided upon and can be shown to be necessary and Justi fiable. The Ohio River gives the bulk of business to the Mississippi, the President dec'--red, and every improve ment of a tributary tended to Increase the valuo of the great water highway to the gulf. The President told of improvements to the Mississippi on the way down and especially in protecting the banks from a further sloughing off at the outside. Ths engineers fay they need fc'.OOCMMO more a year to carry on this beneficial work as It outfht to. be carried on, and that it was a shame Congress did not give it to them. President Taft said: , "1 am delighted to be present. You see we adopt In our Administration the. Roosevelt policies in full. We have passed through all the dangers of the navigation of the river, and they are not confined to the shoals, sandbanks and the bends, and we are here without the loss of a single man. "But. jesting aside, our coming Indi cates what we hope may be an epoch l:i the change of the character of trans, portation. Do not misunderstand me. J do not think that we are going to fill the bosom of the Mississippi River with barges and ocean steamers tomorrow morning. The change will come grad ually. It will come with the demand that is growing for an Improvement In our transportation and the cheapening of that kind of transportation, to wit: bulky merchandise that ought to be carried more cheaply than it is today. American Illvers Neglected. We have seen human Ingenuity de veloped to the highest degree of growth of our transportation and the economy of the conduct of railroads. But the apparently hopeless task of making our rivers useful has turned public atten tion from them and there is not the Improvement we, ought to have had In the last forty years. "Now we have reached a point where we are bound to use these streams be cause the amount of freight will neces sitate it. In Germany a in other for eign countries, the government exer cises control and says that with re spect to the rates certain of them shall be such on the river that bulky mer chandise must go that way. What do we do. Why, we say to the railroads: "If you will only arrange your rates so as to compete with the river we will permit you to make them so as to drive the river out of business.' " The Secretary of War yesterday sug gested although he is as far from a government ownership man as possible that perhaps it might be well to let the Government experiment a bit in risking some capital to put a few lines, on the river to see whether something cannot be done with that business. "Now. in St. Louis I said tnat 1 tnousht that we ought to satisfy ourselves hrst that improvement of the rivers will make them useful, and then we ought to invest the money quickly and issue bonds for the purpose. Now. I think that we have solved the question of the navigation of the Ohio River for the ' purpose oi Improving the trade: and if you are going to make the Mississippi a valuable stream you have got to de pond on the feeders to that stream, of which the Ohio is today far and away the most important. Speedy Work Favored. "It will cost Jta.OiO.OOrt. I am in favor of going ahead with that which has been determined to be useful and issue bonds and buildins the improvemejits. I want no delay in the Mississippi Kiver im provement until the Ohio Improvement Is completed, but I am In favor of finding out what you ousht to do in the Missis :pl River sueclntly and knowing what It will cost before you go in and spend all your money. 'I have been delighted to read be cause I had otherwise a different Idea that the Mississippi has been improved and Improved greatly toward the lower end. that the Mississippi River Com mission, working with Louisiana and Mississippi, has developed a system of levees that are wonderful, to save a state nearly 40.l" square miles of useful and most productive land for agricultural purposes, and that at the same time they have gone on and have discovered means of stoj.plng the sloughing off at the bends. Congress Should Heed. "We are making progress in spite of the fact that the progress is not what it ought to be. The Mississippi River Commission says that in order to carry on even the work they arc doing, they ought to have I-.OjO.OtXI more a year and rcrtainfy Congress, oujrht to be ashamed not to give it to them. ' "I am very sure that the Speaker of the House ia working as hard as he can to reach a Just solution. The question is: 'What can you do? How much will it cost? How long will 4t take and what will it result in?" Now. when you, ad dress yourselves to this body of men and treat it as a mere question of trans portation on a profitable basis. I have not the slightest doubt that you will reach a solution that will appeal to those who have the responsibility of voting the money for the Government and that you will get what you desire in a meas urable time." Mr. Kavanaugh's opening speech was. in his own words, "a story of inaction and of niggardly appropriations, which have been fought through the rivers and luirhors committee, and through Congress without rhyme or reason." The whole Valley was sick with congestion of traffic which only the deep waterway could re lieve and they looked to the President for the execution of that great task. He cited the success of the levees as evidence that the river could be restrained to a fixed channel, forced to scour its own bed and permit the passage of deeper ships. At the same time these lovers protected from waste a great garden land worth to fM an acre. Mr. Kavanaugh said: "The people will no longer tolerate Hi 'pork-barrel' method of compelling Gov ernment engineers to allot funds for rivtr improvements, according to congressional districts, nor will they allow li e develop ment of the greatest of their highways to depend upon uncertain appropriations." The Speaker said that when Congress convenes this Winter, it will have to con sider the establishment of some big cen trl bureau, probably a department of public works, to undertake the entire control of our running water. Tho Speaker declared that the senti ment of the Mississippi Valley is so de termined on this project that a Con grersnian who would, refuse to sanction it could not be returned to Washington PATIENT ENDS HER LIFE WOMAN HANGS HEltSKLF AT SANITARIUM. r I innate of Mountain View Institution Uses Sheet for Rope Delay in Notifying the Coroner. Seizing an opportunity to take her life while a nurse was absent from the room, Mrs. Inas Flint, 25 Tears of age, a pa tient at the Mountain View Sanitarium, hanged herself to a window with an im provised rope made of a bed sheet at 7 o'clock yesterday morning. Despite the fact that death ensued a few mo ments later, the authorities were not' notified of the suicide until 12 hours later. At 10 o'clock last night the body was removed to the morgue. . Coroner Norden will probably hold an inquest. Mrs Flint, who had been afflicted with a mental ailment for several months, was committed to the sanitarium three months ago. Her malady took the form of melancholia, witli a mania for taking her life. As a consequence she . was closely guarded and at times forcibly re strained from killing herself. Shortly before 7 o clock yesterday morning Freida Morgan, a nurse in the institution, visited Mrs. Flint in her room. The nurse discovered Mrs. Flint still in bed. While Miss Morgan retired to another room to fetch the patient her breakfast, Mrs. Flint tore a sheet Into strips and twisted them into a rope. Then moving her cot toward the win dow, she climbed on it. tied the Impro vised rope to the window bars and hanged herself. She was dead when the nurse returned a few moments later. Attendants at the institution declined last night to give out information con cerning the woman s family. DOGS TRAIL LOST BABY FINALLY LOCATE CHILI) ASLEEP UNDER TREE. Daughter of Italian Gardener, Aged Two and a Half, Wanders Away at Noon, Found at One. Trailed by bloodhounds for five miles through the wet and wind the little daughter of Antonio Dlssenl, an Italian truck gardener living on Patton road, near the city, was found about 1 o'clock this morning, drenched to the skin but sleep ing peacefully under a spruce tree. At noon yesterday the child, who ie 2V4 years old, wandered away from 'her home on the Patton Road. A few hours later the local police were notified. By nightfall the child was still gone. When darkness fell the parents became dis tracted. W. ' F.. Skidmore was notified, and with "Trailer" ; and "Coolie," the department hounds", took up the trail of the child at 7 o'clock. For miles Skid more and the distracted father followed her trail along the Patton Road toward Hi.'lsboro. Many times did the hounds seem to have lost the scent In the mud. Kach hour led them farther from home. Suddenly, when they were near Garden Home, the dogs picked up the scent and dashed into- the underbrush: Breath lessly Skidmore and the frantic father followed. A moment later the hounds bayed. They had found the little one soaked to the ekin. but sleeping peace fully beneath a spruce tree 100 feet from the road. JAPAN WILL KEEP PLEDGE Mikado to Remove Military Forced From Chien Tao. WASHINGTON. Oct. 20.

BAILEY TO BEGIN ROUND-UP Milk Ordinarily Shipped Into Port land May Bo Diverted t Cheese and Condensing l'atloiies of Western Oregon. There is a grave possibility that the Portland crusade for pure milk will seri ously curtail the supply and even cause a milk famine. State Dairy and. Food Com missioner Pailey last night announce that simultaneously "with the proposed action of the city authorities tomorrow, in causing the arrest of all Multnomah County dairymen attempting to supply milk in this city "without first obtaining from the City Auditor a license, certified to by the City Health Board that their herds are free from disease, he will cause Uie arrest of dairymen residing outside of Multnomah County who are shipping milk into the city and do not possess a certificate of inspection from the office of tho Dairy and Food Com missioner. It is the contention of Mr. Bailey that four-fifths of tho milk supply of Portland comes from outside Multnomah County, sold through local creameries ami milk companies. It is insisted by Mr. Builey that any attempt on the part of the mu nlipal authorities to secure to Portland an Improved supply of milk will prove ineffective unless the same regulations under the state law are imposed against the out-oj-the-county dairymen, who fur nish the bulk of the milk that is' con sumed In this city. Furthermore, he declared that prosecu tion of dairymen about Portland will be unfair unices the larger culprits, includ ing probably the big creameries, are 'nken into the law's meshes. Mr. Bailey's cru sade will be directed against supplies coming to Hazclwood creamery. Wash ington creamer'. Towneend creamery, Urandes creamery, Oreson creamery, Portland Dairy Association. Carey Dairy Association. Sunitary Dairy (East Side), Klock Produce Company, Albina cream ery, Damascus creamery and Sunset creamery, all of which receive milk from uninspected duiries outside MuJtnonah, in part from the state of Washington. Mr. Bailey admits that rigorous enforce ment of tiie law will divert milk from this city to butter and cheese factories and condensed milk plants in other coun ties, all of which are keen competitors of Portland milk plants, for the product of the dairies that afford Portland its chief Bupply, but avers that the law must be enforced against all offenders alike, whatever the effect on Portland's supply. Certificate Mast Be Had. The state law requires that every person, firm or corporation supplying milk or cream to any city of 10,000 or more inhabitants shall annually obtain from the State Dairy and Food Com missioner a certificate of inspection, setting forth that his dairy has been inspected by that official or his deputy and found to be in a reasonably sani tary condition. Since the crusade for pure milk was initiated. Mr. Bailey ap plied to Attorney-General Crawford for an opinion as to the application of the statute on the delivery of milk in this city. He was informed by the legal ad viser of the state that every dairyman shipping miiK into Portland is liable to the inspection required under the state law, which involves an expense to the dairyman of $2.50 for each such inspection. The provisions of the state law on the subject of inspection of dairies are as follows: Every person, firm or corporation en gaged In the sale of milk or cream in any city of 10.000 or more inhabitants, who keeps a cow, or cows, for the purpose o'f selling milk therefrom therein, shall, on the first day of April each year, apply to the Dairy and Food Commissioner, or Inspec tors appointed by him, for certificate of In spection, and shall pay the sum of $2.50 for the same: provided always, that this cer tificate can be revoked at any time . by aid commissioner or inspector when said dairy is found not to be in a proper in- dition as to the neaithiuiness oi the cow or cows, or as to cleanliness and proper sani tary regulations of the stables, buildings or grounds in which said cows are kept. No certificate shall be issued to any person. firm oi corporation, as provided in this sec tion, where the same has been revoked. without payment of $2.o0 for the same. Each and every certificate issued as provided In this section shall be in the name and owner ship of tho person, firm or corporation, and shall be numbered and the number corre sponding to the one on tho cerliflcate'uhall be placed in a conspicuous place on me wagon or vehicle used by said person, firm or corporation. Round-up to Begin. "If Ihe people of Portland want in spection of their milk supply, we will have Inspection," 'said Mr. Bailey yes terday. "Under the advice of the Attorney-General I shall on Monday begin a round-up of dairymen residing out side of Multnomah County who are sell ing milk to agents, who, in turn, are forwarding it to dealers in this city, by whom fully four-fifths of the popu lation of the city are supplied. If these prosecutions are not sustained in the courts, I shall prosecute the Port land dealers who receve and dlstrbute this milk from dairymen residing out side of the city who do not have cer tificates ot inspection from my offlca. I shall give the law on this subject a thorough test and ascertain what it means and to what extent its provisions can be enforced. "Enforcement of this state inspection law, which carries wifli it the payment by every dairyman of a fee of J-.60, means that dairymen, wherever possible,, will discontinue selling their milk and cream to agents for shipment to Port land. This may curtail the Portland supply of milk, but for this I cannot be held responsible, since my duty is to prosecute all offending dairymen, and not any one class of them, as Portland au thorities are doing. "Under tha stats law, dairymen can sell their milk to either a creamery or a cheese factory or a condensed milk plant without Inspection. There are hundreds of these Institutions throughout Western Oregon that are clamoring for an In creased 'milk supply. Rather than sub mit to the payment of the required in spection fee. many dairymen, I am told, will abandon their trade with tho city dealers and dispose ot their milk for creamery and cheese-making purposes. This is a matter, however, beyond my control and responsibility." Much Milk. From Washington. According to Mr. Bailey, there are not less than a dosen local dealers that are supplying (Consumers in this city with milk which is obtained from dairymen residing in counties outside of Multno mah. In fact, he declares that a part of the supply distributed by these dealers Is received from Washington dairies over which he has no control.

THEY SAY "YES" AND WILL NOT BE CLASSED WITH CHINESE. Appeal to Government Against Ad verse Decisions of Minor Officials. "WASHINGTON, Oct. 30. The Syrians in the United States, who believe that they are threatened with being forced by the Bureau of Immigration and Natural ization of the Department of Commerce and Labor into the position of an in ferior race on a par with the Chinese, have brought their appeal to Washington and are at the point of submitting their case as one of international Importance to the State Department. Dr. Justin S. Kerry, of New York, is In Washington in this behalf and has succeeded in en listing the interest of Acting Secretary Huntington Wilson, Assistant Secretary Adee and Counsellor Henry M. Hoyt, of the State Department, whom he saw .to day. Richard Campbell, chief of the nat uralization division, argues that, should the courts generally adopt the view gen erally expressed by the division of nat uralization and should that view be con trary to the popular will, that will may easily find expression through future legislation extending the right to become naturalized to Asiatics of the so-called European type. "If, on tho other hand," Mr. Camp bell said, "the courts overrule the opin ion I have formed and admit Hin doos, Turks, Arabs, Syrians, Persians and other Asiatics, and the people of the United States object to suclua free teterpretation of the words, 'white per sons' it will be a very different mat ter and certainly a very emoarrassing one for. Congress to find the.' means to give expression to this feeling." As to Andrew J. Balllet, Assistant United States Attorney at Seattle, Mr. Campbell remarks that "it seems to me that a great deal of confusion ha arisen in regard to the construction to be placed on section 2169 as amended of the United States revised statutes, because of the habit of viewing it in the light of the very modern and -very in exact science of ethnology." COURT'S ACTION STANDS Order for Xehalem Valley Road Sus talned by Judge Campbell. ASTORIA. Or., Oct. 30. (Special.) Judge Campbell handed down a decision in the Circuit Court this afternoon in the case of J. C. Pope va. Clatsop 'Coun ty and sustained the County Court. The action was brought for a writ of review of Lie proceedings of the Coun ty Court n laying out a route for a public highway in the iiehalem Valley near Elsie. The principal errors in tho proceedings o: the lower court, as al leged by the- plaintiff, were tnat the report of the viewers was not read on two separate -days of tne same term arid that the remonstrance against the road contained more names 'than did t..e petition for it. the real point in this contention being that none of those who signed the remonstrance had the right to withdraw-their names from it. Regarding the first contention of the plaintiff, the decision says that failure to read the viewers' report on two days woma be merely an irregularity and could not affect the jurisdiction of the court to lay out the road, ' which was acquired by the filing of a valid petition. Continuing, the decision says that the attorney who filed the remon strance against the road could have withdrawn It at any time prior to the date upon which the County Court passed on it. and therefore there can be no reason for denying the individ ual signers of the remonstrance the right to withdraw their names. Accordingly the writ was denied and the acfion of the County Court sustained. ifilrlSSpj l ;fiV'.5fe't!3 ' ' titer Copyrieht 1908 b?

All the city was plnuged into Sty gian darkness and streetcar service on both Bides of the river was disabled when a "blow-out" occurred In the wires of a conduit tube t Station D of the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company, at Knott street and Rodney avenue at 10:15 o'clock last night. The auxiliary power plant at the foot of Twenty-first street was pressed into service shortly after and several light circuits restored. Several streetcar lines on the "West Side were disabled for 15 minutes until the auxiliary cur rents were cut in. A majority of the East Side lines were powerless and re mained disabled until long after mid night. On some lines traffic was en tirely suspended. The Mount Tabor line and Morrison-street ears were ac tive, however, but they were on the "West Side current. At 2 o'clock this morning certain connections iiau ueeu made in the recalcitrant conduit wires-, which permitted several of the more j important lines again to resume ac- i Tt Is enected all cars will be able to resume their regular schedules early this morning. Hundreds of passengers were marooned In the disabled cars at various points along the lines. Many passengers in the outlvitig districts when the current van ished sought the shelter of the cars from the rain. Others groped their way to their destinations in the darkness. In the downtown districts the "blow-out" occurred Just as the department stores had closed and hundreds of employes were homeward bound. Every vehicle and passenger-carrying conveyance In the downtown streets sprang into in stant favor when it was evident that traffic would not be resumed for a long time. Hundreds of people braved the elements and darkness and walked to their' homes. Others who waited until the "West Side cars resumed operations were forced to do likewise after reach ing transfer points on the othr side of the river. The Police Department was among the first to realize the gravity of the situation.

At the final meeting of the Royal University of Ireland last evening under-graduates seized one of the large galleries in the hall and drowned with their clamor every word spoken from the platform. Sir Christopher Nixon, vice-president, was in the chair, and the body of the hall was filled with visitors. Under-graduates flung out flags with skulls and crossbones,' shouted, sang and threw squibs, which set fire to the baize floor covering below, so that the greatest activity was icnunoi i prevent a serious blaze. When the Sen ate entered the hall In processional order- the under-graduates burst into a chorus of singing and shrieking. They stamped with all their might and threw firecrackers upon the audience when Sir Christopher tried to speak. Under-graduates brought a long piece of fire hose, but they were not able to attach It to a hydrant, and so the spectators escaped a drenching. The meeting closed amid wild confu sion.
