THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 2. 1908. OPENING OF COLUMBIA "ML m vmv Fdi? piiri if bshj i ivi vfift ii i vii i uijuiv Completion of Two New Upper River Steamers and Letting of New Contract on Celilo Canal Means Saving of Mil lions to Shippers and Producers. Willi Immediate prospect for a con tinulng contract ut the Cellro eanul. the completion of tho Smyth & Jones con Btructlon contract, and a new $700,000 contract about to be let by the gov ernment, and at tlx same time all con tracts let for complete construction of two large new steamers for the upper Columbia river, the long campaign for a publlo transportation highway through the Inland empire seems to be nearly won for the people. It Is up to the people of the towns and counties along the great water route to support the water transportation lines. Great Servant of People. This vast system of water transpor tation approximates about 600 miles, running through the most productive empire west of the Rocky mountains. On the system are upward of 60 "stops" or stations, helnr various boat land ings between Portland and Priest Rap Ids on the Columbia, and Lewlston on the Snake river. These landings afford river transpor tation for the country for miles Inland, and In addition they ojisrate to reduce rates and lncreaso facilities between the river and Inland points on the railroads mat connect with the river lines. I'nder existing rates by rail and river, the shipper may ship Into Kenne wkk by water, for exumple, and ship out on local rail rates to Inland points, at a saving of several dollars per ton. The railroads will thus serve their pur pose and secure a share of the business, while the river will act as the main artery to carry the tonnage from the wholesale and manufacturing point to the nearest rail line connection up river. This system of transportation, when developed by the prospective steamer lines, will out Wnlla Walla, Dayton, Pendleton, Umatilla and similarly sit uated Inland points practlcully on water transportation, for by using the river as the main artery they will be en abled to get commodities to their stores and farms at water rates for the larger rnrt of the trip. Car shortages will hus be minimized, and rates lowered. Increased Facilities. The primary purpose of water trans portation and an open river Is not to take away business from existing linos more than it should be taken by the naturnl movement of commerce along the chnnnel of the lowest cost. The river rates arc eo low that ft combina tion of through water rate and rail local rat" saves the people money in every Instance on shipments destined to Inland, territory. The river lines also afford a convenient mode of passing shipments along from point to point on the river or contiguous to It. Ship ments between Intermediate points on the river will be quickly and easily handled when the three boats are In commission. It Is suggested that the two new bouts must have appropriate names. n-,l the Open River association Is about r-udy to receive nominations. The boats will be the finest river craft that has floated on tho upper Columbia, and their names should be characteristic and dig nified it is suld. commemorating some historic spot or event, or some Individ ual whose name is closely linked with the history of the river. Construction of the two new boats at Celilo will be commenced within a few days. When completed the upper river will have three good boats, one operat ing to Priest Rapids, one to Paspo and Kennewlck connection with the Priest Rapids line, and one to Lewlston. These boats will stop at all Intermediate points. Boats of Vast Benefit. From a commercial standpoint the operation of these steamers will be of great benefit not only to Portland, out to all river points as well as for a long distance back from the river. The successi. of the enterprise Is ab solutely In tabe hands of the shippers and those wis will receive the direct benefit from their operation. No names have vet been chosen for the two new steamboats and The Jour nal would be glad to receive sugges tions to siromlt to the company. The names must be typical of this country and stand for something. Let every one interested send In their choice. It is expected unless something unforeseen occurs that one of the boats will be the present campaign tho'rlghts of tha the laboring men wr amiln tnt-fted down, but when they took their appeal to Uenver It was granted. Concluding his speech In an Impassioned appeal 10 me voters to get out and take a hand In the campaign, which he predict ed would be a hot one before It ended In November. Judge O'Day read a let ter from Governor George K. Chamberlain. I he governor's letter outlined the present political situation In a manner which left no doubt upon the crowd as to the manner in which the people of the country would be forced to vote If they followed out their convictions. Governor Chamberlain stated in his let ter that If Roosevelt had entered the campaign as a candidate that he would have been Invincible, because of his well known policies. The letter stated that Roosevelt had been unable to do much In the way of aiding the people In securing laws for their protection be cause of congress. Governor Chamber lain urged that Hryan hns always been the same advocate of the same prin ciples which Roosevelt hns fought for and Is now. Hp was positive In his con viction that Hryan would be elected In November because as the letter ex plained, "He Is and always will be the ciitmipion ur me people. BarrU Makes Hot Bemarks. Both Judge O'Day and Governor Chamberlain's sentiments were heartily applauded and Judge O'Day then Intro duced R. A. Harris, editor of the Labor Press, who threw a bombshell that im mediately threw the large crowd Into raptures when his first sentence de clared that If he had the vote of the American federation to cast at the No vember election he would cast It for Bryan. V Harris explained that Samuel Gom- pers, as head of tho American laboring men. went to Chicago to a-et the !!.- publican convention to grant to the laDoring men wliat President Roosevelt had attempted to get from congress. Like Roosevelt, Gnmpers failed and had to go to lonvcr before he could secure favorable action nn legislation for the workingmen. Harris said that all Gom- pers got at Chicago was a lot of mean- inmess worns. ( senator M. A. Miller was the next speaker and ho touched up the Repub lican weak spots and declared that the ngnis or tne p.opl,- were at Issue In completed by the last of October, the other by the middle of November, when they will go in active service. This will put every town on the river from Lewlston and Pasco to Portland on a water basis so far as rates tre con cerned. Pending the completion of the two larger boats It is expected If the busi ness offered Justifies, to place the Re lief on the run between Alder Creek and Celilo. The company intends to give good servleo when they start, and make It -a valuable adjunct In the trans portation flaM of the northwest. "It brines back memories of the old days to rilnk of the regular operation of boats on these rivers, said a mem ber of the Open River association. "The .1. N. Teal Is operating reirtilarlv to The. Dalles and In a few days will ex tend Its run to tho tig Eddy. "When the new boats are completed they can handle a large tonnage ex peditiously, and It Is safe to assume that at all river points the railroads will keep a sharp lookout for business. Business Zs Heeded. "The only way boats can be kept In successful operation Is by having busi ness, and It requires no long explana tion to point out the Importance of ade quate support for the steamers from the towns and rivers people against the greed of the corpora tions. Mayor Iane. Then crime Mayor Harry Lane, who dwelt seriously upon the issues before the people. He was given a great ovation and was compelled to stand waiting for several minutes until the crowd cheered Itself out. He started in and swung from the shoulder and told the people that It was up to thm to see that their rights were enforced. He said It whs their duty to see that the kind of a man should be elected who would Insure the people a govern ment for the people. He said that Rrvnn whs this kind of rt man and cloned with a brief eulogy upon the honesty and capabilities or the great commoner. Stevenson's Clever Hit. John H. Stevenson, former deputy district attorney undir John Manning, made a great hit with the audience ana was more loudly cheered than any of the other speakers when he de clared that "when the people go to the polls in November and choose between Taft the imitator and Bry.an the inltH ta. thftjF-rflsJUi. want their presidential goods done up In the original pack age Fowler said It was all right, because ne bad figured out tho cost, tatting tne bank deposits of the banks of the qoun try for 40 years, or, from the time na tional osnks were lounaea. s u". Taft said that the plan would bring the banks tumbllnr down In ruin. Yet Fowler figured out that It would cost the national banks but S7-1.000 of 1 per cent upon their deposits to Insure the deposit one thirty-seventh of 1 cent on $1,000 for one year. Taft says that such a ruinous tax on the bunks would bring them tumbling down in ruin. If the national banks of this country are founded on such a basis; l they are so rottenlv managed and so far from the first element of business principles then I say let us bring mem tumbling down and start a new system "But they are not so founded and thev would not come to ruin and every body knows It who knows anything. It Is but another Republican method of telling th people that tney aon i "now how to get what they want. And while the Republicans refused to Insert a plank in their Chicago platform for the Insurance of national bank deposits the Democrats did at Denver and the people are once more given their choice In choosing between the two parties for securing the grant or one or meir u mands. Tariff Beforms Chimeras. "The Republicans say give us four more years and we will revise the tariff. They have had 12 years and the country Is tired of waiting. If the tariff Is wrong why have the Republicans waited for a revision and if it is rlslit why do thoy want to revise it? "The Republicans repudiated the pub licity of camnalan contributions at the Chicago convention and the Democrats advocated H at Denver. Taft saw the error made by the Republican conven tion and in his speech or aocepiance said that he would advocate It after he gets in the White House. Whyf , Bo that he can have Mr. IJaxriman some In at the laBt minute with a 1250,000. eontrlbutlonT Or that the large insur ance companies in New York can come In with $600,000 each? If Taft wants It after he is In why doesn't he want It now? Whv didn't the Republicans say so at Chicago; Speaks of Oriental Labor. Senator Oenrln then dwelt upon the Importation of Asiatic coolie labor and snowed u era in now tne kodu n rans hi Chicago failed to corryplv with tho wlshe of the people and how the Dem ocrats at Denver embodied this request in the platform. He continued the com parison to the matter of Injunctions and trusts and the railroad rate bill. Of the latter he said that he was proud that be had voted for It while In the senate, but that it was forced through bv the Democrats. He said that It was still defective and should be amended so as to Include an assessment of the value of the railroads a physical val uation which would make it Impossible to issue capital on watered stock. Oh all of these important measures Sen ator Oearln showed un the policy of the Republicans In keeping their hands free and from making an expression con cerning them. He concluded by saying that the Re publicans have to please the corpora tions and to trv to please the people. He said that they would fall down In trying to please both. He said that the Issue trite year is whether the people will rule or whether the corporation would remain In power. EUGENE WILL VOTE ON WATER BONDS (RiktU! I)l)th to Th Journal.) Eugene, Or.. Aug. 1.

SIGNAL COUPS IS TO Ut FOIilD Immediately upon the return of the Oregon troops from the Joint ' encamp ment at American lake work will be commenced on the formation of a signal corps to be located In Portland. So far as the Oregon state troops are con cerned this will be an entirely new Kranch of servloe andwlll require even higher efficiency than any other depart ment, as -the men will be taught teleg raphy and the use of the wireless In connection with the regular military training. The proposed signal corps will be composed of three officers and about 40 men, all of whom will be mounted. Adjutant General William E. Flnzer said yesterday that he had for some time realised the need of this depart ment and that be would probably attend I to tne aetaus or its organization very soon. The troops have been divided Into three sections for the purpose of trans portation. The first section under Co: onel McDonnell will leave Monday morn ing at 7 o'clock. This section will con sist of headquarters of the Third in fantry, the. band and Companies K K, II and C. The second section will be under the command of Major F. S.

This spirit has Invaded overvthlng po litical, but while of political tendency it has outgrown the politicians and has gone everywhere. "It Is not a surface movement, but stirs the lowest depth of popular thought. It is not local or personal In Its aims, but it as widespread as the boundaries or the nation, and these rati fication meetings, such as the one we ore holding tonight, are but the mark ings of the common pulse of tho coun try.

It Is an In spiration to us; It will corroct evils and evil practices which havo crept Into our government through the policies of de lay following the Republican promises. "The nation and the people have frown tired of the sham and promises that mean nothing. This Republican party which has bad control for 12 years now stands arraigned before the people. What answer can It make to the charge of betroyal of the people? The Republican platnrm and Taft's speech of acceptance are but apologies taction without being characterized as trusts and prosecuted as such. Speech Is a Vote-Getter. Close friends of Rryan assert that tho speech of acceptance will, when made, prove very potent in securing votes. From the letters that are beinp re ceived by Rryan It dally becomes more evident that party lines are belnsj "shot to pieces" everywhere.
