Joint Resolution, However, Eliminates
Recall of Judges.
Washington, D. C.—President Taft
signed the joint resolution for the ad
mission as states of the territories of
Arizona and New Mexico at 3:08
o’clock Monday afternoon.
The resolution went to the president
after Vice President Sherman had
affixed his signature.
Senator Penrose, Representative
Weeks, of Massachusetts, ‘and Barch-
field, of Pennsylvania, the delegates
of the two territories, and a number
of citizens from New Mexico and Ari
zona, witnessed the signing of the
document by Mr. Taft.
There was
but one resolution, so that the presi
dent used three different pens in order
that some of the relic-hunters might
be satisfied.
When the resolution was laid on his
desk, he looked up at the crowd
around him and said:
“ Has anybody read this?”
Nobody answered, and to make cer
tain of it the president read the reso
lution himself.
“ Well, gentlemen, it’s done,” he
said, as he put the last stroke on the
parchment.
The resolution signed by the presi
dent provides that Arizona shall elim
inate the judiciary recall clause in its
constitution.

Dallas to Toledo.
Salem—A shorter course in techni
cal grammar, a complete course in
drawing, nature study, agriculture,
industrial work and music and manual
training, opening with a course of
study in physiology and hygiene, in
which special emphasis is laid on prac
tical hygiene, are some of the features
in the new course of study for the
schools which has been prepared by
Superintendent Alderman. The man
ual of the revised course of study will
be ready for distribution about Au
gust 30. Clean finger nails, well-
brushed hair, shiny shoes and clean
clothes arc other recommendations.
In commenting on the new courses
the superintendent says:
“ In carrying on the work outlined
in this course of study 1 hope the
teachers of Oregon will, first of all,
look to the health of the boys and
girls. See to this then, if there is
any time, teach the other work offered
in this course. The primary object of
the study of physiology in our sschools
should be to teach an intelligent care
of the body.”
Teachers are advised to return to
the old-time recess of not less than 15
minutes during the morning session
and again in the afternoon, but it is
said that the recess will do no good
unless the teacher makes a supervis
ion of the playground a serious part
of the day’s work.
The more simple facts of sanitation
are expected to be taught. In speak
ing of this Mr. Alderman says that it
is of more value to the boy who ex
pects to live in the country to know
that the well should be dug in a place
where it will not receive the drainage
from the barn or the closet than to
know the exact number of bones or
muscles in the body.
The teachers
are also advised to teach this work by
examble as well as by direct method.
The school grounds and the outbuild
ings are to be cared for; the interior
of the buildings should be kept clean,
and, where the buildings have not
special ventilating system, every win
dow is to be provided with a window-
board, so that the children may have
an abundance of fresh air.

Salem — Articles of incorporation
filed with the office of the secretary of
state indicate that there is a move on
foot to construct a railroad line from
Toledo, in Lincoln county, to Dallas,
in Polk county. In event this railroad
should be constructed it would give
a new railroad lir.e from Portland to
Newport by making connections. This
would be so at least when the Salem,
Falls City & Western, which operates
from Blackrock to Salem, through
Dallas, completes its bridge across
the Willamette river at Salem.
The new company is capitalized at
$1,000,000. The incorporators are C.
R. Vrosno, Ed J. Avery and John
Kenta. The road is to be called the
Toledo & Siletz Railroad & Naviga
tion company, and its principal place
of business will be at Toledo. The
company also desires to operate a sys
tem of boat lines on the Yaquina
river, according to the articles.
Should the new line become a real
ity, tourists from Portland could come
to Salem either on the Oregon Electric
or Southern Pacific, transfer to the
Salem, Falls City & Western to Dal
las. transfer to the new road at Toledo
and from there take the Corvallis &
Eastern to Yaquina.

Washington, D. C.—The Secretary
of war will soon approve the report of
the army engineers recommending the
construction of the new canal and
locks on the east side of the Willamette
river at Oregon City, at an estimated
cost of $754,000, and immediate steps
will be taken by the government to ac
quire the necessary right of way. It
is estimated that four years will be
required to build the canal after the
right of way is obtained.
The army engineers have agreed
with the opinion expressed some time
ago by Major Mclndqe that it is bet
ter and cheaper to build a canal on the
east side of the river than to acquire
the existing west side canal now
owned by the Portland Railway, Light
& Power company, and rebuild and
enlarge it.
Not only is it found cheaper to build
the new canal, but by the adoption of
this plan the Willamette will be kept
open to continuous navigation during
the time the canal and locks are under
construction,
whereas navigation
would have to be suspended for from
18 months to three years if the west
side canal should be rebuilt.
It is estimated that engineering
work on the proposed canal and locks
would cost $624,000, and that $130,-
000 additional would have to be spent
on right of way. This is very muclv
cheaper than the cost of purchasing
and rebuilding the old canal, for the
engineers estimate that a total expen
diture of $1,142,500 would be neces
sary to make this canal suitable for
all commerce.
The engineers propose to construct
a canal with locks 45 feet wide and
300 feet long, with a navigable depth
of six feet. This is the same depth
as the channel below the Willamette
Falls.
While the cost of the proposed new
caral and locks is $154,000 greater
than the amount originally thought
necessary, the engineers are of the
opinion that work should be under
taken in the interest of free naviga
tion.
Oregon
has appropriated
$300,000, and congress has appropria
ted a like amount, of which $5,000
has been expended in surveys and es
timates. Therefore it will require an
additional appropriation by congress
of $159,000 before the canal can be
completed, but with $600,000 immedi
ately available, no further appropria
tion by congress will be necessary be
fore 1915, in the view of the engi
neers, who are of the opinion that
Oregon, having appropriated $300,000
has borne its fair share of the cost,
and they recommed that conrgess, at
the proper time, appropriate the ne
cessary remainder.
