fT. PAUL, Minn.. Nov. 6. (Special.)
A sub-committee of five members of
the National Inland Waterways com
mission will Investigate the Columbia
Ktver probably late this Fall for the
purpose of reporting to the whole com
mission physical conditions that prevail
on the river, in its ports and among
vessels which ply it.
The sub-committee will" probably be
headed by Representative Frederick C.
Stevens, of St. Paul, and will board a
G6vernment boat at Portland, make a
trip to the mouth of the river, thence
returning and proceeding to the head
of steam navigation on both the Co
lumbia and the Snake.
Compare 'With Europe's Klvers.
The commission considers the Co
lumbia the most Important object of
Its attention west of the Mississippi
River, on the descent of which the
whole commission left this morning.
The commission has Just returned
from a six months' tour on the im
portant waterways of Germany, Aus
tria. Hungary. Holland. Belgium.
France, Great Britain and other Eu
ropean countries. While there they
visited the mouths of the Thames, the
Rhine snd other streams issuing Into
the ocean where some trouble with bar
formation Is met. The sub-committee
will compare the conditions prevailing
at the mouth of the Columbia with
their observations in Europe. Their
trip from Portland up the river will
he attended with much the same in
vestigation as is being pursued now
on their trip down the Mississippi
River.
Starts Down Mississippi.
The commission assembled in St.
Paul yesterday and boarded the Gov

poel sung :
t "Cannon to rljrht of them.

Volleyed and thundered."
Reduce Power of Leaders.
He recalled the fidelity of, Iowa to
the Republican party and resented the
charge of infidelity. He was willing
to accept un arbiter as to the qualifi
cations of a Republican, but it would
not be Alurich. Payne or Cannon. He
admitted they were Republicans, and
had no disposition to expel them from
the Republican party, but he continued:
I say of them that the Republicans who
are In sympathy with the course pursued by
the Insurgents Intend to take away from
tlK-se men Rome of the power which they
now exercise, and Intend to reduce their
Influence to that point at which they will
feW it necessary to consult rather than to
command.
Fight Within Republican Lined.
He declared the chance that the In
jurants had Joined hands with the
Democratic party to be "mply an ap
peal to a blind passion and a senseless
prejudice." Ho protested that they would
be faithful to the Republican party and
continued:
ThMr etrursle will be within the lines,
but they will not hide the truth as they
w It; for they know that, if the Bep-ibilcan
party ts to be permanently ccceasfuJ. it
must be faithful to its platforms, and must
met.i courageously and Justly the new age
of commerce and business with Its new
problems and questions. It cannot any
longer be progressive la Its platform and
stnn.l rat in its Congress.
H accepted as arbiter as to the Repub
licanism of i hone who voted a pa Inst the
tariff bill the National Repuolican plat
form of li and said the Republican
voters would decide whetlwr their votes
were in accordance with it. He said Can
non a theory that the minority of the
party who voted in favor of duties dif
ferent from those proposed by tlw ma
jority "had rebelled agaimst the party is
nonsense of so sublime a dexree that it
provokes not debate but deridion.' He
continued:
Democrats Are Incapable.
There need be no concern about the atti
tude of the insurgents and their friend.
Thy will do tlietr brst to nominate candi
dates ho believe In a progressive Reputfll
vn party. When they succeed, they w ill
rvjoke because a step will have been taken
tn th path of reform. When they fall, they
I11 be Republican still, for if there ever
was a time when there wa absolutely no
reason for transferring any branch of the
tiovernnienf to Democratic hands, this la the
time Individually, I have high regard for
the Integrity and patriotism of many of the
Democratic Senators and Representatives In
Congress, but collectively they sre more un
fit to manage the affairs of a great country
than ever before In the history of the or
ganisation. Nevertheless, we do not tn
trnd to accept as final the rev U! on of the
tariff against which we voted, and wa do
intend to tell the people of the country from
time to time why w could not and did not
give the bill our approval.
Tariff Commission Only Way.
Discussing? the tariff bill In detail
Mr. suramins advocated a tariff com
mission, saylrg:
There never can be a genuine Republican
revision of the tariff until a body of In
tal'.lgent men shall inquire into and collect
the farts whth relate to the cost of pro
duction at home and abroad
The crusade which I Intend to strength
with all my power is a crusade for a tariff
oommi?sion a permanent, dignified and In
dependent tariff commission; a tariff com
mission that will gather together the facts
as to cost of production and lay them be
fore Congress and the country.
There are millions of Republicans who
t bailer that tariff dutlee should not anb
' ataauaily exceed the difference between th
I coat of producing things her and elsewhere
t with a fair profit added. I believe, they
ooaaUtuta a lara suejorUi oX thm paxty;
but If they do not. they will In the near
future. They will never quit the fight until
they win the victory, and I warn the men
who are mo vociferous in their decrees of
expulsion that they had better conserve
their strength for self-defense. They will
need all they have, and more.
Puny Efforts of Triumvirate.
Let us silence at occe and forever the
discordant cry that these Republicans must
be driven from the party ranks. There is
no power on earth that can drive them out.
The puny efforts of the few men who are
cow amuiilng themselves revising the Re
publican roster remind me of that famous
convention held by the three tatiors of
London, in which resolutions of grave im
port were preceded wita a preamble which
began. We, the people of England. The
convention adjourned and Jhe people
laughed. The triumvirate will dissolve, and
the people will smile.
I marvel not only at the audacity but the
madness which inspires the attack which
has been made upon the Insurgents, for if
Mr. Cannon and his allies shall be succeA
ful in putting every man out of the Re
publican party who would not have voted
for the tariff bill had he been a member of
Congress, he will have eliminated a ma
jority of the Republicans in every Norther
State from Ohio to the Rocky Mountains.
More Rate Regulation Needed.
' Mr. Cummins proceeded to discuss the
financial question, saying he was opposed
to Senator Aldrich's central bank scheme.
As to the regulation of railroad rates, he
said we had scarcely made a fair begin
ning. It should be determined on what
capital rates should be based. Future
capitalization should represent only inde
pendent investment, not surplus earnings
or increase in value of property. He pro
posed a uniform plan of making up tariffs
and then require the roads to revise rates
In accordance with this plan, subject to
approval of the commission. Thereafter
there should be no change in them with
out the consent of the commission.
On the subject of trusts Mr. Cummins
said:
I am In favor of strengthening the anti
trust law so that any concentration of capi
tal whtfthor it he in coroorate form or
otherwise that will have the effect of de
stroying or. Impairing substantially compe
tition, ahall be unlawful; and I am in favor
of a graduated tax that will make it un
profitable to so enlarge a business that it
will occupy the entire field to which it be
longs. M'GREDIE WILL SPEAK

Eccentric Seattle Character Dies,
Leaving Fortune That Will Go

SEATTLE. Wash., Nov. (.(Special.)
Oliver Parsons, the "Sand Pit" King who
lived in Seattle In a shack amid the most
revolting squalor and filth for years and
died last week on the streets, left a tidy
little fortune. ..... ,j
Nearly every bank in the city holds
some of Parsons' money and the adminis
trator of the estate Is now searching the
old tumble-down shack for more wealth.
. n.anMr ftfJItvlntf earned frr him
the nickname of "Paddy the Pig. He
owned seven shacks of the tide flats from
which he realized enough money in
rentals to keep him comfortably. He
also worked as a longshoreman'.
When Parsons' got a dollar tt went out
of circulation Into some deposit vault
or into some hiding place. The adminis
trator has already found $SOOO In cash and
bank books showing a balance of 30n0 in
Maine banks. Every chair and table In
the shack is being taken apart, and every
nook and cranny in the tumble-down
building is being explored. When the
pay dirt in the Parsons' shack Is assayed,
the administrator believes he will have
many thousands to turn over to Parsons'
sister, the sole heir who lives In Maine.

ORGANIZE CREDIT SYSTEM
Boss of Senate Says That Is More
Important Than Note Issue and
Only Hints at Possibility
of Central Bank.
CHICAGO, Nov. 6. Senator Nelson
W. Aldrich, of Rhode Island, tonight in
an address before the Chicago Com
mercial Club delivered the first of a
series of speeches which he is to
make throughout the Middle West on
the subject of currency reform. Mr.
Aldrich is chairman of the commission
appointed by Congress to make a com
prehensive study of a monetary sys
tem for the United States.
To those who expected Mr. Aldrich
to use the occasion for the promulga
tion of the central bank project, or any
other plan of National finance, his
speech must have been, in the nature
of a surprise. He declared at the out
set that "the question of a definite
plan for reforming existing conditions
has not yet been taken up by the com
mission," and added that no plan would
be adopted "until after an opportunity
,.ad Leen afforded for the most careful
and exhaustive study of all the condi
tions that surround the problem."
Asks Business Men to Help.
He said he had accepted the present
occasion as an opportunity "to make
an earnest appeal to you, as representa
tive of an important section, to give
tne commission the advantage of your
valuable counsel and co-operation in
securing tne adoption of a satisfactory
remedial plan, one that will surely
conserve and promote the vital inter
ests of a., the people of this great
Nation."
He called upon business men and
through them upon the business men
of the country to feel their own re
sponslbility. individually and collec
tively, for the satisfactory outcome of
the work. He continued:
"It is my purpose tonight to call the
attention of the bankers and business
men of Chicago to somf of the more
salient features of th work of the
National Monetary Commission. The
question submitted to it is so vast and
Involves so many collateral Issues that
my statement must necessarily be frag
mentary and Incomplete. .
Will Soon Publish Report
"We expect to be able to give to the
public within a comparatively snort time
the fullest Information with reference to
tne experience and practical methods of
other countries and of our own. When
this record has been submitted and time
has been given to analyse It fully, we
shall, before reaching any decision, ask
representatives of business interests
throughout the country for an opinion as
to what, if any. portion of it is pertinent
and valuable in the formation of a plan
for the United States.
"In oth2r countriea wherever great
monetary systems have been constructed
or essentially modified, men whose ex
perience and research had given their
opinions special value have been called
upon for advice and assistance. Our
commission will follow this wise prece
dent. Any plan, to be successful must
represent the consensus of intelligent
opinion of our common country.
Difficulties of Task.
"The task of the commission is not
only important, but is surrounded by
many difficulties. We have ilrst to con
sider the wants of 90,000.000 people; then
the requirements of 2S.000 banks (18,000
state. TOCO National) with differing in
terests; some with the right of note issue,
all jealous of their own rights, and all
naturally conservative as to innovations,
and all unwilling to accept changes that
are not plainly along the line of ac
knowledged improvement.
"The problem is too serious to be
passed upon lightly. Too many great in
terests are Involved; It pouches at too
many vital points the economic life of
the United States and its future develop
ment. Any radical changes must become
operative only from time to time, so as
not to disturb these conditions and rela
tions. Could Avoid Panics.
The speaker briefly referred to the dis
astrous results that followed the financial
crisis of 1907 and the conviction that with
a better monetary system its widespread
consequences could have been avoided.
"I am, of course, aware," he continued,
"that with the sanguine nature of the
American people, whose nervous energy
Is not always confined by limits of pru
dence, we are certain to have recurring
periods of over-speculation and of ab
normal inflation of values. But I am sura
that it is quite possible, by confining the
effects to the transgressors and their im
mediate financial supporters, to save the
business and the great financial interests
of the country from disastrous suspen
sions of banks and a general destruction
of credit."

Dazzling Teeth Enhance Charms
Hardly a day passes that we do" not
receive one or more letters from patients
who are congratulating themselves and
us on their new ALVEOLAR TEETH. A
lady recently wrote in and told us that
her teeth were so natural looking and
beautiful that they had rejuvenated her
face. Her friends and those who did
not know her so well were completely
mystified at the wonderful change In
her looks. This was the burden of her
song of thanksgiving. Letters of this
kind are very gratifying, but they come
with such frequency that they are be
coming an old story to us.
One of the prime factors in the ALVE
OLA H METHOD of restoring missing
teeth without the aid of partial plates
or so-called bridge work is that each is
a tooth and is set In its own socket, thus
carrying out nature's plan of supplying
teeth in the first place. These teeth are
not only natural looking, but they .may
be used in exactly the same way that
one can use nature's teeth. We wish to
impress once more upon our readers
that in supplying these teeth we per
form no surgical operation and do not
bore or cut into the gums. There is
noth.ag auout tne proposition that is to
be feared. The very strength of the
method lies In Its simplicity and in its
conformity with natural laws.
In many cases where it is impossible
to replaco missing teeth with bridge
work it can be done perfectly with
beautiful ALVEOLAR TEETH.
With a great many people looks
come first, but if these teeth singly
looked beautiful they would not b4( wie
success that they are unless they were
also practical. Another thing we wish
to emphasize is that this is not an ex
pensive piece of work, considering the
fact that when it is completed ttie
patient lias to all intents and purposes
a complete new set of teeth that are
just as serviceable as if they had grown
In the mouth.
This company has been In existence
six years, aud during that time has
built up the largest dental business in
the world. This of Itself should be evi
dence enough that there is great merit
in the ALVEOLAR METHOD. A busi
ness of this kind does not grow unless
it has real merit and sterling quality
behind it. If we could convince one
person out of every 60 who need teeth
