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."

During the past year a vacuum
bottle has been put on the market
which will keep contents hot for 24
hours, warm for 48 hours and cold
for 72 hours. The bottle consists of
two glass bottles, joined at the neck,
one bottle being within the other, a
vacuum space between the two bottles
prevents outside temperature from
reaching, the inner one, thus permit
ting contents to remain hot or cold
(the same temperature as when plac
ed In the bottle) for. days at a time.
A. C. Koeppen & Bros, the druggists,

examining them every day.
