Kern, as stated In previously published ac counts, is the "father of Cushman's al leged assailant. , . STEIVER EXTOLS RAPIDS PROJECT (Con tinned Prom Fit One) project is by far the most important piece of developments so far as Port land and Oregon are concerned, since the transcontinental . railroad." said Steiwer, who quoted statistics to prove that one half million horsepower could be developed with a primary horse power cost of $9 to $10 per horsepower j per year as compared with retail prices of today ranging .from $60 to $$00 per horsepower. He said that this cheap horsepower would make possible the irrigation of land that t could not. be reached by gravity and that a total of 270,000 acres could be reached by Water and made to produce just as heavily as the Yakima lands. With the irrigation of this land he predicted the natural sequence of greater taxable property and colonisa tion. ' Further he aaidVthe provision of this horsepower would assist the railroads in the electrification of their lines and induce industries to locate in the state, thus increasing the pay rolls of the Northwest. Still further he contended that the completion of the project would -make possible cheap er river transportation and consequent development of the Inland Empire and Portland to their, mutual benefit. DESTIJfT OP PORTLASJ v "In my opinion the destiny of the greater Portland and the greater Ore gon is absolutely one -with i the im provement and the Oanalixation of the Columbia river. We need ' a brod open highway for water transporta tion Into the Inland Empire. -The hydro-electric development ' will, 'mean cheap power and the reclamation of arid lands will mean production in al most : unlimited quantities. "These factors combined will bring new population, new wealth, new In dustry and new- commerce, .vibe de velopment of .the-project means then that we have brought , to Portland's door a new Willamette valley. It will, in fact, bring to the very doors of Oregon's metropolis a, wonderfully rich, thriving district where there is now almost nothing." . " - -: Other-members of the visiting party delivered short addresses in raworJtcoart at Salt Lake City. of Steiwer's statements.- Dr. Penrose ia his brief address said that Portland is too sieek. too opu lent and perhaps too las? and indiffer ent to realise the possibilities which lie In the. rapids project not nry for Oregon, but also for Portland.; . He urged the city to- awaken to the 'op portunity along the upper Columbia rlTer. - . - DECISION HOT TO RETARD PAYMENT, SAYS BRAMVELL The opinion handed down by the cir cuit court relative) to- the preferred rights. of the savings depositors in the defunct State bank of Portland win In no way retard the work of the state banking department, in the preparation of dividend checks covering, all claims filed In the savings department, ac cording to Frank C BramweiL, state superintendent of banks; in a statement made this morning. Under the order entered the department will proceed to declare a dlviden. on behalf of the sav ings epoeitors, representing 40- per cent. An appeal from Judge Tucker's deci sion will be made at once and an effort will be made to obtain a decision from the supreme court within the next few days. "If we properly construe the meaning of the opinion," stated Bramwell, "the effect would be that the savings depos itors at this time would receive their dividend of 40 per cent declared from the cash now on hand in the savings department. We also have on hand in the commercial department sufficient cash to pay the commercial depositors a dividend of 40 per cent, but after the savings depositors receive their divi dend of 40 per cent the cash in the com mercial department would be divided pro rata between, thev commercial and savings depositors. - "We will probably arrange to have the dividend checks all prepared in the commercial department, so that in the event the decision of this court is re versed the depositors In both depart ments will receive their dividends of 40 per cent without any delay. "The effect of this opinion Is entirely out of harmony with the views and practice of the department. The liqui dation of other insolvent institutions has been Conducted on the basis where the savings depositors were paid from funds received from the savings assets, and the commercial depositors have been paid from recoveries on assets of th commercial department. . Liquida tion on this basis is In harmony with our construction of the statute, as well as the opinion which I have received from the attorney general. "All matters will be held ip abeyance until the supreme court has considered all questions presented. I am confident that the court will sustain the view expressed by the attorney general as well as the established practice of the department In other liquidations." . Boy, 18, Who Eloped With . Girl, 15, Not To Be Prosecuted Xo charges will be brought against August Lambert, 18, who was jailed in Kalama Friday after a week's elope ment with Mavis French, 15, accord ing to a decision reached bythe girl's parents Sunday.
