FAVORS 3LULTN0MA1I MAN FOR CONGRESS Portland. April II To the Editor of 1 he journal i wian to say a word in favor of electing a Multnomah man to congress. I believe I know something of the Importance of river improve ment I nave been a shipbuilder for JS years and have built over 20 steam er" at Portland for Alaskan waters be side others for Mexico and other coun tries. I know George Shepherd will be able to do some good If we send him to congress by reason of his experience In marine matters. I have noticed with regret that when the public starts to bund a boat or have some nubile Improvement connected with the water, often times the entire commission la composed of men with no knowledge of the work. We now have a chance to send a man to con gress who understands what we need, so let us send him there. JOSEPH 8UPPLE. NAME POLICE CHIEF TUESDAY PERHAPS Candidates for appointment to the po sition of chief of police and city engi neer of St. Johns are still on the anx ious seat, as Mayor J4. W. Brlee, chosen to fill the position of chief executive at the recent election, has not indicated to whom the plums will fall. The new city government has already been Organised and the next regular meeting of the council will be held next Tuesday evening. It la possible at that time that Mayor Brtce will announce his appointments and It Is likely a warm fight will develop, as certain councilman may not care to Indorse the appointees of the mayor.
