to build a railroad on the Wash
ington side from navigable water
below the Cascades to navigable
watec above The Dalles, a distance
of sixty miles, at an estimated cost
of $40,000 a mile, with boats above
i and below the road, the whole ex
' pense being lumped at $3,000,000.
'. If we are not at fault the stretch
j of river between The Dalles and
the Cascades, about fifty miles is,
as far as navigability is concerned,
a long and deep lake, without im
pediment, which can be navigated
by the largest kind of boats, at all
seasons, save a tew uays in winter.
Why not utilize big ferry, "boats
carrying trains of cars on the mid
dle river? Is there anything to
prevent using boats as large or
even larger than the big ferry boat
used by the Northern Pacific in
crossing the Columbia at Kalama,
a bciat that can carry twenty-four
cars at a load?
It seems to us that by the con
struction of a portage road around
The Dalles, on the Washington
side, a road that need not be over
ten miles long, and another road
five miles long around the Cas
cades, and the employment of
monster ferry boats on the middle
river, an opposition that would pay
Us owners could be put on the
Columbia. Forty thousand a mile
will build the road and the in
clines. Fifteen miles of road
would cost $600,000. We are re
liably informed that the big ferry
boat, Kalama, can be duplicated
for less than $200,000. Two boats
would be ample fur the work.
Another $100,000 would put boats
on the upper and lower river, in
addition to those which would be
put on by others. By this plan
$1,100,000 would put a profitable
opposition line on the Columbia.
Portland ought to organize the
company and put up the money to
carry out the scheme in ten days
after this article is read in that
city. When the opposition is
ready Walla Walla and other in
terior points will find ways to
reach the river with their freight.

cific Coast. The much debated
long and short haul clause had no
difficulties for him. The light and
airv way in which he makes away
with it is really a study and de
light. He decides that when it
provided that less might be charged
for a long haul than a short one,
if by reason of competition by
water it was necessary so to do in
ordor to obtain or retain orregain
business, the section was made in
applicable to nearly all the condi
tions that exist on the Pacific
Coast. The Oregon road from
this city has to meet water com
petition; so have all the transcon
tinental roads. -The San Francis
co News-Iiettcr says this is also
true of the Sonthern Pacific's con
nections down the coast to Los
Angeles and San Diego. Take
away all these exemptions Irom
the operation of the clause, and
what is left of railroads that this
coast is interested in? But the
effect ol Judge Deady's decision
will reach far beyond the railroads
this sectiou of the country is di
rectly concerned about. The
Erie canal, the great lakes, the
Missouri and Mississippi rivers,
and the ocean route to such places
as New Orleans and Galveston,
will render the much dreaded
clause almost as applicable to the
eastern as it is the western side
of the continent. It is well that
it should be so. There never was
any sense in the hard fast rule
which the clause sought to set up.
It was impossible to charge alike
from all points. Differences as to
errades, competition, amount of
business offered, etc., should natur
ally and properly be reckoned
with. The laws of legislative
bodies have not, so far, had much
success in dealing with matters
that are far better left to the
operations of the laws of trade.
We think that all parties will wel
come Judge Deady s decision as a
happy escape out of what threat
ened to be an annoying difficulty.

When senator Ben Wade was a
circuit judge in Ohio, one. of his
decisions was reversed by the su
preme court of the state and the
case came back to him on man
date. He disregarded the man
date and followed the first decis
ion. "But, your honor," exclaimed
the beaten counsel, "the supreme
court reversed your former judg
ment." "Yes, so I have heard,"
was the reply. "I will give them
a chance to get rfght.'' The de
cision was again reviewed, this
time with Judge Wade's written
opinion, and the upper court de
cided that Wade was right.
