Session Opens With Clark
Speaker and Clarke Pres
ident Pro Tern of Senate
By Bond P. Geddos,
Washington, t)oe. 0. Tho prologue of
another epoch in American history was
enacted today when the Hixty-Fourth
congress enlivened nt. noon.
Tho routine, time honored proceed
ings connected with organization of tho
assemblage betrnyed no surface indica
tions of tho important legislation to
be launched affecting domestic and in
ternational problems. A hint of tho
tremendous program however, was con
tained in governmental programs for
1017 calling for I,L'.SS,M57,()80.1fl
Bgainst t,m.O)4,lf).r5 appropriated
already 'or 1810. .
That preparedness is the dominant Is
sue was' conceded. Increased demands
for this part of tho program showed
this; and tho spirit of the house, con
firmed it. Ix'gislatora engerly awaited
delivery of to president's message to
morrow, but in tho niojintlino many
members dei'lnre.d their belief tlmt the
administration program for defense will
be materially changed before H gets
through congress, inasmuch as opposi
tion to the present program is appar
ently spreading.
Tun Administration' preparedness
measures were not introduced today, tho
lenders instead awaiting delivery of
1 lie president, s message.
The senate session lasted only 40 min
utes and Senator Clarko of Arkansas
wns chosen president pro tem, ,
The house (in the other hand required
several hours, because of long roll calls
and administration of oaths to new
members.
In accepting the post of speaker, to
which he had just been ro-clected,
( hump Clark predicted that perpetual
sessions of congress will become nocos
anry on account of the lncrcaso In leg
islation. Ho praised Representative
Mann of Illinois as "a capable, vlligant,
aggressive minority leader," evoking
applause from the house.
Socialist Representative Tendon of
er York did not voto on tho speaker
ship, although his friends urged htm to
vote for Ken; of California, whom U10
socialists endorsed.
: Bull Moose Iiepresentatlve Rtnnhcns,
of California, Imd Copolcy of Illinois,
voted for Mann, the republican candi
date for speaker.
Her an so Mann had not completed
minority .assignments, committees were
not organixed and tho democratic, slates
were not presented.

WILL FILE DECREE IN
I CASE
This Will Be Done Wednesday
Congress Must Then Act
Within Six Months
Portland, Or., Dec. (1. Prepared by
tho department of justice in accordance
with an opinion handed down by the
supremo court of the United Stntes, the
decree in tho Oregon nnd California
land grant rnso involving 2,HUO,000
ncres of land in Oregon, will to filed In
the United Stntes district court in
Portland Wednesday. A statement to
that effect was made today by Assist
nut Attorney llenorul Constantino J.
Smyth.
Tho decree already lias been sub
mitted to attorneys for tho Houtheru
l'nciria rnilrond, which holds tho land,
so that any objections they may file
may bo considered before tho decree is
entered.
According to Smyth, two injunctions
are ordered by the supremo court's de
cision. "One," ho said, will be per
manent, nnd will forbid the railroad
from violating tho restrictive provisions
of the grant under which the land is
held. That will prevent tho snlo of the
land for more than -."0 per acre, or
in tracts of more than 1(10 acres, or to
non-settlers.
'The oilier injunction is preliminary.
It forbids the railroad to noil the lniid
or mako any disposition. Should
congress rail to act the railroad nuiv
apply for a court order modifying tho
injunction pruliiliituig the dispusul of
tno lima on any terms."

PAY $1 000 FOR SET
.OF
Viewers Appointed To Make
Final Selection of Plans
Submitted
The FoTmty court has appointed three
viewers for the proposed bridge across
the Willamette river at this place and
the viewers have been authorized to
pay $1,000 for plans for the bridge.
Bridge, engineers will submit coinpeta
tive plans and specifications for the
bridge in both concrete and steel and
the engineer whose plan is accepted
will receive $1,000 when his plans are
completed. The viewers have called
for plans for the present site at the
end of Center street only which indi
cats that this will be the only Kite con
sidered. The county court appointed
12. T. Mct-ornack, J. A. ilaker and W.
J. Culver s viowcrs.
The government engineers favor the
present sit for the new bridge in the
interests of navigation and as the old
bridge could be used in place of a false
work while the piers for the new one
were being put in plaeo and again the
piers for the new bridge would serve
as a falsework while the old bridge
was being wrecked. Engineer Holmes
estimated that the saving by the eliin
inaiton of the expense of falsework
would offs-t the expense of a ferry.
The viewers called for plans for a
bridge' with a 30 foot deck and two
sidewalks six feet wide in addition.
The main part of the bridge is to be
780 feet long and the approaches 900
feet long. The general plans call for
a structure strong enough to carry a
40 ton street car on the car track and
a 20 ton truck 011 the roadway which is
to bo paved.
The plan of calling for competativc
bids for the bridge was adopted upon
tho objection that if the county court
favored either a concrete bridge or a
steel bridge that their decision would
exclude the builders of the other struc
ture. As a result the plans submitted
will determine which is tho chenpest
and best structure and this' will be
erected. Any standard type of draw
span may be submitted.
The letter Bent out by the viewers to
the engineers stntes that plans may be
received and filed up to 10 oclock a.
m., December 24. This will ullow the
necessary levy to be pluced in the bud
get before December 31.
The instructions to engineers by the
viewers follow:
Plans will be received for both steel
and concrete structures and must be
enclosed in sealed wrappers, addressed
"Hoard of Viewers, Proposed Jntor

tion and Judd will draw a salary of
$100 a mouth, lie is now in Son

to Portland of the Oregon exhibit
from the Panama-Pacific interna
tional exposition, which closed yester
day. Sir. Judd is the father of former
County Judge E. C. Judd, of Clatsop
county.
The transfer of this exhizit to
Portlnnd to become a permanent ex
hibit was provided for by the 1015
legislature, which appropriated $15,
000 for the collection of an exhibit
of the state's products. Of this amount
$9,000 was to be expended for the
transfer to Portland and $0,000 for the
maintenance of the exhibit at San

$175,000 for the construction of the
Oregon building and of this amount
thero is left unused $24,845.47. The last
legislature appropriated $10,000 for the
establishment at tho exposition Of a bu

this has been used but $710.47.
LET IMA COME HOME
(By ELLA SleSIUNST.)
I see by the papers that Thomas Lar
sen, of tjiiinaby, has asked permission
to take his daughter Ima from the
liirls' Industrial school and has been
refused.
I have known Ima all her life, and I
never knew her to harm anyone. When
she wns a littlo girl she used to take
mighty good core of her little brother
and sister and nil the other children 111
the neighborhood. She used to work
hard in her little garden to raise flow
ers for her grandmother's grave, and
she helped her mother on washday, and
all week. 1
I hnvo picked hops by the side of her
when blood dripped off her ringers, but
sho was too gritty to quit, nnd I have
heard thnt she has worked nt the insti
tution, milking cows, and the likes of
that, tor there arc no men thero ami
those city bred girls don't know n
' cow 's tent from a sack of oats.
I never could seo why tho stnte of
Oregon got up on its hind legs over the
affair anyway, but whatever it was, it
is between her and God, nnd I think
He'd be willing to give her another
chance, when it's so nenr Christmas
when Christ came for you and me
and littlo Imns; all over the world.
Rose and Tom they are her father
and mother but everybody calls them
by their first names because they like
them, they sit up to tho fire and try
to talk about Christmas, but they can't
do it, for over in the comer is Ima's
piano that has been silent a long time,
and her picture is on top. They get to
thinking about that other Christmas, 18
yearB ago, when together they bent
over the little crib and showed the
baby tho things Snnta Onus had
brought the rings and rattles and
things, nnd she mado gleeful little bub
bles on her chin and took a firm hold
on her father's black hair the same
hnir that is getting a littlo gray, now
that Ima is gone.
Of course somo of us can't help being
lonely this year for its the first time
all our folks won't be here the clear
folks out there under the sod and the
rain but someway I'd like to see poor
little lmn come homo to Hose nnd Tom
for Christmas.
