According to Attorney General J. D. Williams of this state, the recent decision of the United States supreme court holding unconstitutional the Minnesota railway rate law does not have an Important bearing upon the railroad commission law of this state or the litigation now pending concern ing that law, says a Seattle item. Mr. Williams holds that the Minne sota rate law was held to be uncon stitutional because It precluded a re sort to the courts for the purpose of testing its validity while there Is nothing In the railroad commission law of this state which precludes such a thing. "The railroad commission law of this state, it is true. Imposes a penal ty upon railroad or express com panies, or their agents, for refusing to obey the orders of the commis sion, states Mr. Williams. This pen alty is $250 a day for each day of the continuance of such neglect or re fusal. There is no penalty by Im prisonment as in the Minnesota rate law. "After the railroad commission has made an order fixing a rate, which rate Is determined only after investi gation of a very complicated and technical character, as was not the case with the Minnesota rate law, the railroad affected or aggrieved by such order may have the order reviewed by the supreme court, and is dissatisfied with the findings of the court may appeal to the supreme court. Pend ing such review the court may sus pend the order of the commission. to be operated by taking advantage of the numerous creeks along the right of way. The Columbia Is Clear. The Portland contractors, Wake- 1 field & Jacobsen. who have been dredging and otherwise clearing the channels of the Columbia at what Is ! known as Three-Mile Rapids, near this city, have completed their work 'and brought the dredge to The Dalles I where it is now moored, says an item , from The Dalles. The removal of the rocks and reefs from this portion of : the Columbia has cost the govern- ment about $100,000, and has occu- pled several years, though It could .have been finished sooner but for the 'fact that it could not be carried on the year around, on account of high 'water. The Columbia is now free from .impediments to the Big Eddy, where It connects with the portage road. Ill OVER nil BUILDING AND DEVELOP MENT BOOM EVERYWHERE.

To celebrate the opening of the "Riparlu Cut-off which means 10 hours between Portland and Lewls-ton-Clarkson Instead of the 30 hours required by the former schedule, the people of Lewlston-Clarkston. are planning a "Blossom Carnival" far May 1. 2 and 3. On the 2d a largo party of Portland business men will be their guests, making the trip over the new line In a special train. This cut-off brings the entire Clearwater basin Into closest touch with Port land. Portland's Building Booth. "I have never heard so many people express their Intention of building, ns this spring." remarked one of Port land's oldest residents last week. Building, particularly In the residen tial sections of this city, was never so active, and people In a position to speak understanding, through fre quent trips over the state, sny that the same flattering conditions prevail all over Oregon. Sheridan Will Advertise. Sheridan, Ore., had a meeting last Saturday with the Idea of organizing for the advertising of their town and Its vicinity. The business houses of the town were closed so that every one might participate, and many farmers from the surrounding coun try were present. Quite a delegation came over from McMlnnvllle. A thousand dollars was raised for pub licity, and to this fund the farmers were liberal contributors. Sheridan will nfflllate with the Oregon Devel opment league Immediately. Realty Excursion. A new feature Introduced by the Portland Realty Board Is a weekly excursion for Its members, either to some suburban addition to Portland or to some point more distant, to thoroughly familiarize them with the city, Its environment and the state In general. Last Saturday they charter ed two speclnl cars and went to Sa lem a hundred strong over the new trolley line, to attend the horse show 111 the capital city. The excursionists were unanimous In pronouncing these Interurban lines the most Important factor In the development of any sec tion. There Is on assurance that a line srll be constructed between Sa lem and Stayton very soon. Notice to Poultry Raiser.

I believe we will make sunlight by the proper control of ether waves. The wave differs only from light In the number of vibra tions, and It Is a question only of get ting waves short enough and the vi brations high enough to make day light.

There Is 26 H feet of water on the bar tit low water, and at high tide there Is 32 feet. Even Brigadier-General A.
