I Um d hsmls )aLje BENEFITS OF III COLUMBIA One of the prominent numbers on the program of the reecnt graduating exercises of the Walla Walla high school was an oration by Miss Flor ence Rceder, 'member of the senior class on "The Open Columbia,' 'says the Walla Walla Union, In her re marks MIbs Reedcr showed a close and careful study of the situation on which she was speaking and delivered her words with force and conviction. Pertaining as It does to one of the most vital questions In the develop ment of the northwest her address was especially appropriate. Following Is the oration, In part: "People of Washington are Interest ed as never before In the opening of the Columbia river. The lack of Irriga tion, the conditions of the waterways and navigation, demand that this should be done for the best Interests of the people. v "River systems of this country are better adapted to the needs of the peo ple than those of any other. Rivers In no civilized country are so poorly developed or play so small a part In the Industrial life as do the rivers of the United States. "Plans should be considered to se cure to the people the use of these waterways for power, Irrigation and domestic water supply as well as nav igation. In fact there are five allied Interests In the opening of the rivers navigation, Irrigation, power, forest Iwitlon and sanitation. "Not one but every waterway should be made, to serve the people as large ly and In as many ways as possible. It la poor business to develop a river for navigation In a way to prevent Its use for power. By a little foresight, I: could be made to serve both pur poses. It Is needless to sacrifice pow er for Irrigation or Irrigation to do mestic water supply, when we may have all three. AH streams should be used to their utmost. No steam can be used to their utmost. No stream can be so used If use Is not planned for In advance. One plan can be made t a?slst another. Each river system from Its head-waters In the forest to Its mouth on the coast la a single unit and should be treated thus. "Much has been done but more must be done, before a detailed plan of development can be made. Addi tional Information Is needed on the flow of the streams, conditions for channels, amount and cost of water traffic, requirements for terminals, but It Is not necessary to postpone the beginning of the work until all the facts are obtained. "Eighty million acres of arid lands lie In the northwest. One million acres, under Irrigation, are found as fertile as any soil. "Not one-tenth of the Irrigable land of the Inland empire Is undei Irriga tion. Even now railroads are con gested and not able to handle traffic. With the other nine-tenths farmed, as It all must be In the next few years, railroads will prove absolutely Inade quate. Traffic In this country has Increased over 100 per cent In the past five years. Railroad facilities have Increased less than 20 per cent. Un regulated railroad completion has de stroyed the development of the com merce. "Corporations or monopolies should bo prohibited from the use of per petual power, Irrigation franchises of Inland waterways. These franchises phould be held for the benefit of the people. "A bill Is before congress urging the necessity of building a dam at Priest Rapids In the Columbia. The power developed Is Immense for either elec trical ways or other purposes. These rnplds are the biggest obstructions to navigation on the upper river. A ca nal around would mean open navi gation on that river. There is also a movement for fhc construction of a dam at Five Mile Rnplds In the Snake river. By means of this thousands of acres of arid lands In Walla Walla, Franklin and Benton counties could be Irrigated. "Prospects for substantial appropri ations to aid the open Columbia are bright. The fact that the Columbia river was mentioned In the president's message augers well for a liberal gift from the federal government. 'A hill has been proposed for a com plete survey of all points not surveyed along the Columbia. There are three hundred miles of navigable waters In Canada known as Arrow Lakes. Be tween these lakes and Bridgeport Is a short reach. This would Involve In ternational affairs between our gov ernment and the government of Can ada. Surrounding these lakes for miles are thousands of acres of valu able timber land. The country tribu tary to these lakes consists of vast aeras of agricultural land. A line of steamers runs on these lakes continu ously. Canadian people of this region are anxious to Join with people on the American side for the purpose of an international connection between the Columbia and Arrow Lakes. "In the opening of the Columbia to the river's very headwaters, one of the greatest projects In the history of the west will be consummated. Pro duce from vast area of rich agricul tural and forest lands may be sent down the river to the rich orchard and grain country along the Columbia, Thus opening, up the headwaters of the river connecting Arrow Lakes with the sea, and opening up the whole vast northwest to a water-borno com merce. "Development of waterways will have results far beyond the Immediate gain to commerce. Use of water pow er will measurably relieve the drain upon the diminishing supplies of coal. Transportation by water Instead of rail will tend ot preserve the Iron. "Irrigation would create a liveli hood for millions of people. Supplies of pure water would promote the pub lic health. If the policy of waterway Improvement Is carried out It will ef fect good for every citizen. "'The cost of Improving Inland waterways will be large, but far Icrs thnn would be required to relieve the congestion of traffic and railroad ex tension. Cost and benefits should be equallly divided by corporation with the states, communities, corporations, or Individuals, beneficially effected. "Improvements of Inland waterways can and should be made to pay for Itself. Navigation should be free. "Benefits will be large and will touch the dally life of the people at every point uniting the Interests of our country. But the greatest return will come from Increased commerce and prosperity."

I Clomllos Skln In Most Parts of Ore gon: Except .along the immediate coast, where cloudiness was prevalent, the weather during the week was char acterized by almost cloudless Bkles.
