Portland and Seattle ars sending

: .United States senats so near alike
that - the two porta may ret tog-ether
and work toward one end, according
to In formation . brought oat at the
netting: of the navigation committee
. of the Chamber of Commerce -last
night.
The Seattle Merchants' Exchange
aaked cooperation towards a bill ' call
ing for the establishment of a com
mission of fire men. to have perma
nent charge of the country's - ship
pins'' Captain John F. Blaine Is to
be sent to .Washington to farther the
bill and Senator Oeorge E. ' Chamber
, lain of Oregon has been asked ' to
: present the bilLi;-:;: r--H--.
- Senator ; Chamberlain has ' already
presented a bill prepared by the Port
land Chamber of Commerce calling
for the appointment of a commission
of 12 men to determine the faults of
the-present shipping laws and to re
vise them.
So near alike are the two measures
that the navigation committee decided
to Inform the Seattle Merchants Ex
change of. this fact and suggest that
the two bodies get behind one measure.
' Another cause of delay, the forcing
, of captains of steamers to file a mani
fest at Astoria when coming to Port
land, was taken up last night, and "Con-
gressman Me Arthur will be asked to
, push, a bill through congress abollsh
. ing-this practice. With the North ;
Bank of the Columbia now Included
in the Portland district, this measure
is especially desirable.
- The committee also recommended the
sending of a request to Washington
that Oregon be left in the California
district when the steamboat inspec
tion service is divided into two parts.)!
It Is held that the relation of Porf
. land and California .firms 4 Is much i
closer than would be any relation be-!
- tween Portland and Puget sound.
The referendum on . the proposed
amendment to the seamen's law, which
the Chamber of - Commerce of the
United States is furthering will be
presented to the members' connclr of
the Portland chamber for action.
Chairman IL E. Pennell of the com
mittee was - empowered to - appoint a
committee of three to further a law
exempting Oregon owned ships from
state taxation, as is done in. Califor
nia and Washington. J
Thai committee - also recommended
that the harbor lines be extended to
the mouth of the Willamette river and
will appear before Colonel Potter of the
United States engineers corps to press
this, claim February 20.
