"It was pointed out," says Mr. Scott, "after the waterfront conditions were studied, that it would be too expensive lor us to build straight out from the business section of the city to high water. The site of the present dock used by river steamboats will be out of the question, for within another year or two the river at .this point will be so filled with sandbars that boats would not be able to reach the land lng.

DRAIN STRONG FOR HUGHES Well-Attended Meeting Addressed by B. F. Mulkey. DRAIN. Or., Oct 28. (Special.) B. F. Mulkey. of Portland, spoke here Thurs day night to a large and enthusiastic audience. He dealt particularly upon the un precedented extravagance of the Dem ocratic Congress In the face of a fad ing revenue. He was especially severe in condemn ing the tariff theory that neither pro duces revenue nor protects American industry and labor. He said. "27 states of the Union have passed laws safe guarding labour of men, women and children. This Is the trend of modern legislation. Yet the Underwood tariff law throws our labor open to the com petition of the world's poorly-paid la bor where In most instances there are no safeguards as to hours of labor or conditions under which it is performed." A careful poll of the Drain precincts gives Hughes 150 majority and Hughes sentiment is growing daily. BOND INCREASED $10,000 Iiapwal Man Waives Hearing on Riot Charge. LEWISTON, Idaho, Oct 28.

"As to athletics, I am of the opinion that much of it Is overdone.

"Many teachers today tell their pu- plls to get an education, so they will not be compelled to work for a living, President Foster's answer was re ceived today. It said: "I am delighted to have this ex- Kpressioa of your agreement with the alms of Reed College, we, too. believe that athletics In American schools and colleges Is overdone, and for that rea son we have absolutely none of the excesses of Intercollegiate athletics with which you are familiar. We, too. believe that the old-fashioned bucksaw Is more conducive to health and to respect for the man who works than the usual type of Intercollegiate ath letics. You would not, of course. Insist on the bucksaw for all our students especially since we burn olL You will be Interested, however, to know that 80 per cent of our men are earning part or all of their expenses by their own labor. Mesaena-er Labors at School. "The boy to whom you handed your letter Is a painter by trade and is now doing all that work for the college. The boy who delivered your letter works regularly on the college grounds with hoe and shovel and such other substitutes for the bucksaw .as the work demands. "You would not, I am sure, want our boys to spend all their time on the bucksaw for purposes of physical development In preparation for a life of hard work.
