STEAMERS FOR KLAMATH LAKE.
Navigation May Soon Ho Carried on
Nearly All tho Year,
Corvallis Improvement of the upper
Willamette was discussed here today
by Pavid H, Ogden, engineer in charge
(if the Willamette expenditures, mid
members of the Citizens' League. The
snnghoat Mathlotnu has been working
on the upper river for two weeks and
is to continue in the vicinity of Cor
vallis throughout the coming week.
The famous cut-off, where tho Wil
lamette has broken through a new ckan
nol and reduced n lOy-iuile stretch to
less than a mile by- leaving a circuitous
route for a direct one, Im been prac
tically cleared of snags, which had been
a menace to navigation. Similar work
is to be done in other directions.
The main topic, however, of the con-fcri-Sk'c
between Mr. Ogden and the cit
izens was the chance of an all year nav
igation by boats to Corvnbu. Plans
with this end in view are being worked
to by the engineers. Their recommen
dations for appropriations cover u Is
in this particular. For two years the
work has been so carried on. Mr. Og
den thinks that in another two years
the plan will be consummated and if
navigation be not achieved throughout
the summer, it will nt least bo so bet
tered that there will bo but a very short
period of inactivity. Local citi.ens
are much encouraged by the attitude of
the engineering people, and are prepar
ing to co operate fully.

Race Suicide Increasing.
Paris, Nov. 12. Public attention has
again been drawn to the National peril
involved in the constantly-diminishing
birthrate by the publication of
vital statistics for 1905. The births in
France for this year numbered 807.292,
showing a decrease of 10,937 from the
total of 1904. The Teason for this de
crease is not to be found In a reduc
tion of the number of marriages, In
which the statistics show a slight in
crease over 1904, but it apparently
arises from the aversion of the French
people to raising large families.
The National association which Is
studying this matter has reached the
conclusion that it is necessary to In
culcate the Idea that any couple that
raises more than thrfe children merits
and is entitled to public gratitude and
protection.

Spray May Have Caused Death.
Hood River James II. McGinnis, a
native of Ontario, Can., who has been
staying with his brother, D. L. McUin
nis, an employe of the Menominee Lum
ber Mill, died very suddenly Tuesday
from what is now thought to have been
poison. At tiie time of his sudden ill
ness he was attended by a physician,
who could not diagnose his case, but
left a prescription which, it is said,
failed to help him, and he died in a
short time.
.Since his death it has been discov
ered that McCiinnis, who had only been
here a short time, had been in the habit
of eating a good many apples and that
they were covered with spray, which
he did not wipe off. The spray is poi
sonous am symptoms with which he
was attacked, such as vomiting and ho
vcre pains in the abdomen, now lead his
friends to think that he died from its
effects.
