These reduced fares are perhaps the greatest factor in in ducing Immigration outside of the pub licity work of the various chambers of commerce of these states. The rail roads are working hand in hand with the commercial bodies everywhere in the Pacific Northwest to swell the num ber of settlers in this territory Colonist rales are not new in Western railroading, but at no time previously have they been so effective In diverting travel this way as at present and the biggest colonist movement In the his tory of the Pacific Northwest is predict ed for the four spring and fall months of 1907 when the reduced one-way fai are in effect. The growth of the westward move ment Is due to the better advertising and exploitation methods of commercial bodies and railroads and to the growing density of population in the East, where many are able to find more congenial surroundings by moving away to a part of the country where there is more el bow room, where climate is more equa ble the year around and where land is cheaper and lees worn by repeated crop ping for years. These conditions contribute to the constant “ trek” westward which is significant movement in the history of the American continent and which dates from the days of the California argonauts of ’49. By prairie schooner and by ship the pioneers came to settle wilderness. Since the transcon tinental railroads have been built, the second generation has found an easier mode of seeking out the great West but the movement has by no means end« and Is on In greater volume than ever RAILROADS ARE BLAMEO. IN THE NATIONAL HAILS OF CONGRESS Sunday, March 8. Washington March 3.— Beginning at 11 o'clock today, by far the largest part of the session of the senate was devoted to a filibuster by the Democrat senators against the ship subsidy b ill as it pass ed the house, and when the Benate ad journed a few minutes before midnight the bill was still pending. Washington, March 3.— More than an hour was spent by the borne in ob taining a quorum today, but when the necessary number was secured, bus in eta proceeded as usual. A greater part of tbe day's session was given to consider ation of conference reports. Of these a partial report on the LaFollette railroad bill were accepted and the sundry civil, pension and general deficiency appro priation bills were agreed to in full.

Wsdnesday, February 27. • Washington, Feb. 27.— After listen ing to an argument by Patterson of Colorado in favor of government owner ship of railroads, the senate today agreed to the conference report on the river and harbor bill. Protests were made against tbe reduction from $650,- 000 to $250,000 of the amount for im provement« in the Mississippi river be tween Cairo and St. Louis by Hopkins, Cullom, Stone, Allison and Overman. The smaller amount prevailed. Secure All Practical Man That Work on Panama Oanal. Augusta, Ga., March 4.— “ We e f down and ou t," said J. B. McDonald, president o f the Panama Construction company, In discussing the rejection of the bid of W . J. Olllvei for the con struction of the Panama oanal. “ They have taken tbe matter out of opr hands, and it now rests with the president. The responsibility should be placed where It belongs. “ I cannot see why our bid should have been rejected, except that it is due to the far reaching machinations of the political influences that have worked against all bids that threaten actual construction of the big canal. It la hardly necessary to say that these in terests are those of the trans-continental railroads. “ You w ill notice that, one by one, the practical men who have been iden tified with the canal have been picked off by big financial interests. I t is not difficult to «trace the relations. This Is very poor business, however, for tbe canal is bound to come, if not during this administration, then during anoth er. I t la inevitable. “ I cannot see where the president and his associates are right, and do not a bow they will be able to dig the canal. Booner or later the ditch w ill have to be dug under the businesslike management of a constructor who has figured cost down to a minimum. Our company was w illin g to perform ever item of the agreement required by the government. I t was our understanding that, when tbe conditions imposed by the government were met, the contract went to our company. W e have made every preparation at considerable ex pense and were prepared to begin shov eling dirt on or before tbe time lim it of 60 days."

Eureka, March 2. — The steamer Corona, Captain Boyd, considered the best boat in the Pacific Coast Steam ship company’s service between this- city and San Francisco, lies straddling the north jetty on the Humboldt bar, a hopeless wreck. The Corona, with nearly 100 passengers aboard, struck at 10:10 o’clock yesterday morning, a » Captain Boyd waa attempting, in the teeth of a stinging wind and a terrific bar flood, to drive her into port. Tbe usual scenes attendant upon a shipwreck followed. The passengers rushed into the social hall. iS o m e of the women were hysterical and some of the men were palsied with fear, but reassuring words from the crew and some of the calmer nsseenger* brought calm. Thereafter the passengers as sembled upon the hurricane deck, where they remained until tbe rescue work waa undertaken in the afternoon. Soon after tbe ship struck, a boat, in charge of Quartermaster Gunn, was lowered away. I t contained three o f the crew and three steerage passengers. This boat capsised at once fn the l o l l ing surf and H . Errickson. a Swede, was drowned, ttutin and the others succeeded in reaching shore, the life saving crew under Captain Hennig having come to their assistance. A second boat, in charge of Second Officer B. V . Joenn, waa pat off. Badly battered and leaking like a sieve, this boat reached the shore. Mean while, T . F. So them, night saloon watehman, formerly a marine in th » United States navy,- stripped to the- waist and attempted to carry a lino ashore. The small line he had tied about his waist parted, however, before he had gone fiar. Sothern was picked up by the life-savers. 8everal attempts were made to shoot a line aboard with the Lyle gun, but each time the line fell far short. Finally it was decided by Captain Hennig and the life-savers to go oat In the billows, and they made as gallant a voyage as ever men undertook, finally reaching the side of the Corona and picking np the line. W ithin a short time after the Cornea > « struck, news of the accident was com municated to Eureka and several thous and people during the day went to the beach opposite the wreck to watch tbe work of rescue. Several unsuccessful attempts were made to work early in the day, but it was not until 4:60 o'clock in the afternoon that Captain Hennig and hie men worked effectively.
