fBy'Jbotnal ted Salem Wile.) ' :
Salem,' Oft, Jan. 30. In closing Its
fourth convention at Salem today, , the
Oregon-Idaho Development : congress
adopted concise resolution stating Its
demands and the foundation upon
' which are based those demands. The
resources of the territory to be. tapped
by a railroad through central Oregon
are great but the fact that the output
of southern Idaho would pass into or
through Oregon by means of such a
railroad was an additional feature very
r ijiite consiaerea lormerjy. 1
The following figures presented in a
resolution adopted by the congress, In
troduced ty.,jKiiey atKinson, secretary
of the Boise,-Idaho, chamber of com
merce, portray- tbls feature wells
"Whereas the territory In. southern

railroad from Boise to Coos Bay has

"Resolved, That we believe a railroad
from "Boise td Coos Bay would, be a
parlor Investment aid enjoy mora than
sufficient traf f lo to - make It a com
mercial success."
The following resolutions relative to
the mining industry and conservation
of natural resources were also adopted :4
, neeotveo, inai ror.in proper flevel
opment. of the mineral output of the
state, this congress favors exempting
-corporations formed for the purpose-of
mining- only, from the payment of mora
than a nominal fee for filing articles
of incorporation; and that we favor the
enactment of such laws as will pro
mote, develop and encourage the mining
Industry throughout Oregon.:
- "Resolved, That this -congress ap
proves tha efforts of Qovernor Cham
berlain of Oregon and Governor Good
ing of Idaho. In cooperation with the
federal government, to oonaerve the na
tural -resources. We indorse th f la-h
for the utilisation of our water powers

rorests, ana tne -encouragement of all
legislation to accomplish these results
Among; tnose who- spoke this morn
congress'. In 'convention" gnerabled 1n
balem, wislifs to thank the Oregon
legislature tor its prompt action In pro
muting the protection and Improvement
of our waterways and harbors, by ex
tending the terms of the bill for free
locks and canal at the tails of the
Willamette, for passing the general port
commislHon act, under -which each of
the harbors on the west coast of the
state can organise a taxing diatrict to
raise revenues and isaua bonds for its
own improvement and within its own
resources.-' We favor the further exten
sion of improvements of 'the Columbia
river ana wouia rewpeuuuiiy pennon
this legislature to make provision for
extending the state portage railway to
the beginning of navigation at the big
eddy, to the end that the Inland reached
by the upper Columbia may be given
the fullest benefits of water transporta
tion, ',(...
: -- Work of ort Commission.
We commend the splendid work done
by the general port commission asked
for by this congress at Its session held
in Marshfield in August, 1908. and ap
pointed by . Governor Chamberlain,
which resulted in the passage of the
Din oy. tins - legislature oy wnicn tne
people can go forward and improve
their harbors and Inside navigable chan
nels without waiting; for the action of
congress in behalf of each of these
harbors, we especially commend to
our delegation in congress to impress
upon the war department the duty of
assisting the people of the Columbia

The continued diversion of the great
sums of surplus earnings taken from
the producers of this state In freights
and passenger fares to develop railroad
properties in other states where strong
er competition prevails makes i It neces
sary, ror tne people or this state to re
sort to all the power, vested in them
under the constitution to secure rail
road construction, and we recommend
that the next session of this , congress
be held at Boise, Idaho, before the ad
journment of the legislature .of that
state, and that a similar commission be
authorised to be appointed by the gov
ernor of that- state to work -in -cooperation
with a citucena' commission In
Oregon that Joint action of the two
states be secured to bring about rail
road construction by the aid hereto
fore outlined. .- ;.-,-. .... y. -- ,

This congress again emphasises the
supreme Importance of placing the
whole political and executive and legis
lative power of the two states of Ore
gon and Idaho back of the proposition
to secure tb construction of main line
of railway from Boise through central
Oregon to Coos ha v. hv uaa at tha tun

or any other lawful means of procedure
In issuing bonds or hypothecation of
the properties benefited and the com
munities and lands to be enhanced in
value. We also favor the creating of
districts needing other trunk or branch
lines for the same purpose, backed by
the resources of the people and the
lands to be benefited, to the end that
their credit shall become available to
secure needed transportation facilities
without awaiting the pleasure of any
railway magnate or the exploitation of
any financial syndicate. We Indorse
the principle that the people of these
commonwealths are far more capable
of helping themselves and wilPget far
greater results In development of their
country than by giving enormous sub
sidies which In the end must be paid
by the- producers themselves for still
further financial exploitation. ; .

made walking difficult.' even nre.
carious. Trolley cars and elavated rail,
road aervlce was bad. Managers were
having their own troubles. Cars- were
cold -bitterly cold and - they were
stalled on the loop and in the streets.
Marshall Field & Co. had a rescue grew
of 10 men stationed at the doors to aid
employes In getting safely into the
store. Other State street stores had
similar crews to . protect people from
the wind. All of the mounted police
men were dismounted temporarily and
transformed Into a rescue and "first aid
to the Injured" brigade on the principal
downtown comers.
Here are a fw ttf tha nthap' tUnn
for which the wind and cold were" re

The temporary disarrangement- of the

The settlement of the Klnsle street
bridge. The structure has been. closed

The Impairment of the mall service.
The impairment of the telephone and

The storm was not without Its bless
ings. Hundreds of Idle men - were put
to work. The city hsd hundreds of
teams and men at work clearing snow
from tha downtown streets in addition
to the regular force. The street rail
ways,, the railroads, the elevated rail
roads all had hundreds of extra men
In yards and on the streets.
One hundred and seventy five famU
lies were assisted by the county agent
today. The demand was largely for
fuel. Other relief societies had many
calls for assistance. -
Railroads are gradually getting back
to something like a semblance of sched

all trains are running on the card once
more. Trains from tha writ ara ail
