Resolution Favoring Uma
f'. tilla Rapids Power De
velopment Adopted.
Portland. Interest in the proposed
Umatilla, rapids project and the be
lief that much of the power develop
ed could be sold in Portland were ex
pressed by the city council in a reso
lution - approving, the development
which was tentatively adopted.
The resolution will be adopted form
ally by the council Wednesday, and
will be sent to Secretary Wilbur, of
the department of the interior, who
suggested that the -Umatilla - Rapids
association obtain expressions ' from
cities so that the government would
know that there is a definite interest
in the power that might be developed.
James Alger Fee,, circuit judge 01
Umatilla county, speaking for the as
sociation, said, that all 01 the cities
which would be available for the dis
tribution of the power from the Unia
tilla dam will be sounded out t de
termine whether they would be j.er-
ested. This information a-:1i be given
to the government bafove the bill
finally is approved. V r .
He also suggested that the' city
could purchase the power from the
plant at two mills a kilowatt hour -xt
the switchboard and that this could
be distributed in the city through the
lines of the present uti'ities, The fact
that .the city also has the right to
purchase : the plant .mil lines, or
either of them, from the Northwest
ern Electric company at the expir
ation of its franchise also was recall
called to the attention of the council.
James W. Carey, of the j hrni ot
Carey and Harlan, city l-ata experts,
said that a distribution line from the
dam would cost about J2.000.000 for
the cheapest kind of construction and
this would have to be aided to the
cost of the power which the city
would get for two milU a kilowatt
hour. - :. 'i ; - oX'"." ' '
A letter from Secretary Wilbur to
the effect that the power can l c pro
duced at the dam for 1.2 mill was
read by Judge Fee. The letter also
said that the power coud oe som at
the"' switchboard for two mills. It
was declared that this would mean an
exceptionally low industrial rate lor
the city, f Preference in the sa e cf
power by the government wii! be
given to cities, Wilbur's letter said.
. Mavor Baker declared that he has
given the Umatilla .rapids project
much study and that" he' favors the
develonment of the project. He point
ed out that the city council does not
Vinve the rierht to commit the city to
a contract for the purchase of the
power . nor to the construction of a
transmission line to bring that power
here. . .,; ..- : '
. He naid that would have to be re
f erred to the neonle. but that he did
believe that the city should indorse
the nroiect and express its belief
that much nower 'could be sold here,
Ha thouerht that this would indicate
the city's position committing it to

PortlandiA 16-foot rowboat, pro-,
pelled by a sail and a pair of oara
in the hands of Robert Woods, Wen-
atchee, Wash., farmer brought its
owner and 500 pounds of ' freight
down the Columbia river to the Wil
lamette river in 12 days, a distance of
several hundred miles through alter
nately placid and swiftly treacherous
waters. Woods brought his enft to
shore at the North Portland docks
near the Swift packing plant after
accomplishing his singular feat. , ,
Small, weatherbeaten and about 55
vears old is Woods. He made the
trip , he told O. G. Dickinson, Swift
company employe, to prova tna tne
river is navigable all the way and to
promote river freighting from his
home territory down thd Columbia.
TJi ioumev. which started May 11.
was not without its thrills, Woods re
counted, although he bfoughs his
cargo through without getting it wet.
Head winds encountered a tne uma
tilla rapids gave him his greatest dif
ficulty, but he managed to come
through dry and right sido up.
Wenatchee farmers vant locks
built into the dam near there, Woods
said, and his adventure was designed
in the interests of this move to Keep
the river open to navigation.
