The advantagea ot having port dls v Strict organizations, which caa apeak .'with authority for local interests, vera m- ; brought out strongly in connection .with certain river and harbor projects In Congressnian Hawley's district. .RecentJy Mr; Hawley had occasion to argue before the board of army en t . inneers M charge, of river and. harbor t work 4ir opposition to the. adverse :re - port of the district engineer1 office on proposals to make detailed surveys of channels from St. Helens and Rainier, - , Or, to the main ahlp channel of the ..Columbia. v Orrulkfoom TiarWnr. r w bb , nr of raua t oat no report I!

J Again, there ft a complication over improvement between Bay City and Tillamook, ' in' rlllamook bay, which appears might b .straightened out with ? ease except for the legal dlfflcultlea in which thr Port of Tillamook be ;? came involved.. ' ' ' "v?': ort' district Xa Aid. -: "When there is'a port district to give voice to local desires and to pledge whatever degree of local assistance .'can be given, the work is much simpli fied. The engineers can submit an es timate to congress with -considerable .assurance if they are able to state . that some city or district Is ready to put up part of the cost of the im- : provement. j vln the case of St. Helens and Rainier, Mr. Hawley believes a complete aur 7vey of cost may yet be ' made. He 'presented to the board a statement of traffic, and pointed out that the com . merce involved i much larger than " f on1 Cathiamet, Wash., where improve ment Sb recommended. OatUamet Benefitted, s' The: engineers have recommended 4 red gin g at elthef end of Puget Island in the Columbia to open the Cathlamet channel, at a cost of $6000. There la ; equally good or better reason, it is 1 urged, for dredging the way to St. Helens and Rainier, for the traffic is greater, and although off the Colum bia.1 they are nearer the main channel of the river than the Washington town, j in the- case of Tillamook bay, there fls no question but that $5000 will go ?iato th;jriver mad ha,rbor bill for the existing -project from- the entrance to Bay CitySoeaU interests have been caring for a, nine-foot channel at mean high water from Bay City to Tilla mook, -where most of the" traffic , originate, but the local machinery Is now disarranged. i' Oraater Sum Heeded. - The engineers have made no recom mendation as to that, merely saying that if- looel Interests lare to be re lieved" of doing this work in the Inner channel, $8000 more will be needed, and the decision la left to congress. Senator Chamberlain is Informed tbat detailed Reports on cost ' of im- rNriv. and kar (nd-tho Yaquina bar ;wttaofa be compiled and will be sub mltted to congress with as little de Jaa possible. lPdstmaster to Hold r !
