UNCLE JOE'S NEW

SPEAKS WELL OF COOS BAY
Washington, Oct. 15. "Speaker
Cannon will not appoint to the rivers
and harbors committee a member of
congress from any state which is di
rectly interested in securing appro
priations for the improvement of
waterways. In other words, if a
state has a project to advance before
the committee, no member from that
state will bo named on the rivers and
harbors committee." This was the
statement by tho private secretary to
the Speaker Busbey today.
This means that If Jones of Wash
ington succeeds, as It is reported he
desires, in getting a place on the
ways and means committee, the Pa
cific northwest can have no repre-
handles appropriations most vital to , she 's equipped
its development.
Congressman Grovesnor of Ohio,
McCIeary of Minnesota, Babcock of
Weatherman E. A. Beals, tells
Portland reporter of new lumber
schooner and other items:
(Portland Telegram.)
Through District Forecaster E. A.
Beals, who returned from an Inspec
tion trip to Coos Bay last night, it
is learned that the C. A. Smith Lum
ber company, of Marshfleld, has just
launched a new steamer at Newport
News which will carry 2,250,000 feet
of lumber on a draft of 18 feet. The
vessel has been christened the Nan
Smith, and will be brought around
for service on this coast in the lum
ber trade,
In that she draws three or four
feet less than any other steamer ever
built, for the amount of cargo han
dled, the steamer Is entirely different
from any thing recently turned out
at the shipyards. Her deck is cov
ered with large hatches, making It
possible to shove lumber Into the
hold by the carload at one swing of
the powerful derricks with which
In a day or two, or
just as soon as she takes on stores,

member from Oregon, it having been
customary to alternate between those
stntes. The new ruling by the sneak
er, however, makes thl3 impossible.
"The speaker believes tho rivers
and harbors members should ho like
a jury, viewing proposals for appro
priations In a disinterested frame of
mind, which is impossible for a mem
ber from tho state directly interest
ed," Secretary Busbey said.
Tho announcement dissipates tho
hopes of Ellis of the Second Oregon
district and Hawley of the First dis
trict, of appointment on that committee.

Chicago, Oct. 15. That a $30,
000,000 will contest was argued and
settled out of court, was disclosed
yesterday when the last testament of
Morris, tho packer, was filed for pro

situation, the principal provision of
tho will has been nullified. Instead
of carrying out tho arrangement
which would have tho bulk of tho

years, tho widow and her four child

Smith's new sawmill will be readv
for operation early In March. It will
furnish employment to 1,000 men.
Tho capacity of the plant will bo
equal to that of any other mill on
the Pacific coast. It Is strictly mod
ern throughout. Monday or tnis
week $11,000 worth of planing ma
chinery was purchased by the com
pany. The weather man says ho never
saw a country forge ahead so rapidly
as the entire Coos Bay section.
Every town Is growing by leaps and
bounds. New industries are being
started and costly buildings erected.
He went down on th e steamer Al-

way of Drain. Along tho stage road
hundreds of settlers were mot headed
for the bay to catch their winter sup
ply of fish. Each family was pro
vided with barrels in which to salt
down tho salmon.
At ono of the settlements along
tho route the only hotel In miles re
fused to prepare breakfast for tho
passengers on tho stage because they
arrived at 8:30 a. m half an hour
after regular breakfast hours. Beals
and his companions went out on a
foraging trip and got a supply of
eggs and vegetables, which they
cooked behind n clump of bushes on
the grassy bank of a sparkling brook,
and enjoyed tho finest meal they
over nto. Tho hotel proprietor was
willing to accommodate tho lumen
travelers, but ho was afraid the cook
would declare a strlko If he asked
him to work overtime
Portland, Ore., Oct. 15. For the
purpose of ascertaining the necessity
of extending the West side fire limits
to the harbor line of the Willamette,
members of the council yesterday af
ternoon made an Inspection of the
water front In company wU1 Harbor
Master Speier. The party left about
2 o'clock in the harbor master's
launch and were on the river several
hours. Tho councllmen taking the
trip were Annand, Beldlng, Concan
non. Dunning, Kellaher and Rush
light. After making an examination of
the wooden docks along the water
front the councllmen were unani
mously of the opinion that these
structures should be replaced by
brick, steel or concrete. It is prob
able that what they saw will In
fluence them to vote In favor of the
ordinance that Belding is having
prepared extending the fire limits
to tho river. This measure Is being
drawn up by City Attornev Kava
naugh and will bo presented at the
next meeting of the council.
"There is no reason why we
should allow frame dockr to be con
structed Immediately back of rows
of brick buildings," declared Beld
ing after the party returned. "We
never before realized thl3 so clearly
as today after seeing the exact con
ditions along the river. Wharves of
concrete or other fire proof mnterlnl
would greatly reduce the risk of
conflagrations along the river ana
when the entire water front bef"Tie
lined with them they would bo a
pride to the city.
"One or two of the docks that wo
saw are In very bad condition. It
might be advisable for the city to
condemn these after the new ordi
nance is passed. In tho Interests of
the city's extensive shipping the
citizens should all unite for the Im
provement of the water front."
While making tho trip the council-
men discussed somewhat the advan
tage of a concrete wall along the
harbor line. This Is another recom
mendation that has been made by
Captain Speir and may be taken up
after the passage of the Beldlng or
dinance. Another object in making the trip
wns to select In a general way loca
tions for five or six anchorage buoys
that tho harbor master desires
placed In the river. These buoys,
costing about $500 each, would be
for the convenience of vessels enter
ing the harbor and are desired by all
shinners.
The councilmon favored tho plan
to Install tho buoys and It will prob
nbly also come up at the next meet
ing of the council In tho form of an
appropriation ordinance.
