Willamette River
Will Not Be Cleared
Above Corvallis This Year
Washington, Dee. 7. Snagging oper
ations on the Willamette river from
Corvallis to Eugene, Ore., were found
several years ago to be impracticable
at a reasonable cost, and for that rea
son nothing will be done in that direc
tion unless congress specifically pro
vides for it.
This is the substance of a letter re
ceived by Senator Chamberlain from
Uolonel li. Taylor, acting chief of en
gineers of. the army, in connection
with a requast from tho Oregon City
Transportation company, which de
sires to extend its service up-river to
r.ugeno. i unds are authorized to be
osed for aid to navigation at high wa
ter between Corvallis and Harrisburg,
but nothing for the section between
Harrisburg and Eugene. Originally the
project covered snagging to Eugene
but this was discontinued in 1904. .
Colonol Taylor summarizes the pro
ject, upon which money may be used
a.i including the removal of obstruc
tions and construction of controlling
works to secure 12 feet at low water
from Portland to Osweeo. seven miles:
dredging, Bnaggihg, dam and revet
ment worlt to- secure a channel of two
and a half to three and a half feet
at low wntcr froth Oswego to Cor
vallis, 112 miles, and snagging in aid
of high water navigation from Cor
vallis to Harrisburg, 33 miles.
ia view of the positive tooling that
no r;ew projects or extensions are
likely to be authorized by the next
congress, there is little prospect for
extending tne scope, of worn on tie

Tariff of Less Concern
To Sheepmen Now
Pendleton, Ore., Deo. 0. With elec
tion of officers for the ensuing year
and a banquet at the Hotel Pendleton,
the Oregon Woolgrowers' association
concluded its convention Saturday. A
number of resolutions were adopted at
the close of the session.
It was resolved that since the I.aFol-
letto seamen's law is working an injury
to American shipping, it be condemned
and that congress be asked to repeal
the law. ...
The association went on record as fa
voring the nonpartisan nntionnl tariff
cemmission and such, tariff regulation
as is Consistent with the attitude
the sheepmen in former years, and in
structed tho dolegatcs to 'the National
Woolgrowers' convention - to petition
congress to enact a suitable pure-fabric
law.
The ragman, not a low turiff. is the
enemy of the wool growers, declared
Charles Copley, of Portland, who ad
droBsed the convention. He asserted
that tho truthful branding of fnbrics
would in a short time at least double
the wool production of the northwest.
"What wool men need," he said, "is
not tariff protection, but protection
against old rags, the rag man bcir
chief competitor of the wool grower.
'1 lie world's supply of fleece wool is
only 27 per cent of that which is sold
for all-wool products, and tho wool
grower should begin to look into the
matter of getting protection ngninst
counterfeits which are put on the mar-'
ket as all wool. You havo had tariff
enough; tariff has not helped you, nor
nas it given you protection against old 1
rags."
The following officers were elected,
for the coming yean Wm. Barrett, of!
iteppner, president; is. V. Johnson, of
Wallowa, vice-president: J. N. Burgess,
of Pilot Rock, C. C. Berkeley, of Hay
Creek, A. N. Ingalls, of Keating, D. O.
Justis. of Heppner, and J. E. Dobbin,
of Joseph, oxecutivo committee.

sugar duties were discontinued and the
national defense program enacted, the
1917 treasury deficit would aggregate
$297,000,000."
The first year's cost of the prepar
edness program, he said, would be
$93,800,000. By retaining the present
"war tax" nnd sugar duties he esti
mated additional revenues of $112,000,-
000 annually must be provided to cover
the national dctense expense.
Disapproving of a bond issue, the
president said:
"I, for one, do not believe the people
approve postponing payment of their
bills.
'We should be following an almost
universal example of modern govern
ments wre we to draw the greater part
or even the whole of the revenues we
need from income taxes."
Income and Other Taxes.
Lowering of present limits of income
taxes and increase, step by step, of sur
taxes on larger incomes, was suggested.
New internal taxes mentioned by the
president "which can justly be resort
ed to witnout nampering tne industries
of the country or putting any too great
charge upon individuals expenditure"
were:
Gasoline and naphtha, one cent per
gallon, yielding $10,000,000.
Horsepower of automobile and in
ternal explosion engines, 50 cents per
horsepower, yielding $15,000,000.
Stamp tax on bank cheeks, yielding
$18,000,000.
Pig iron, cents a ton, yielding
$10,000,000. .'
Fabricated iron and steel, 50 cents a
ton, yielding $10,000,000.
Keturmng to necessity for laws to
leal with foreign plots and conspira
cies, the president declared:
Jtiypnenatea uitizens.
"I am sorry to say the gravest
threats against our national peace havo
been uttered within our own bordors.
There are citizens of the United States,
l blush to admit, born under foreign
flags, but welcomed under our natural
ization laws to the full and free oppor
tunity of America, who have poured
the poison of disloyalty into the very
arteries of our national life, who have
sought to bring the authority and good
name of our government into contempt
to destroy our industries wherever they
thought it effective for their vindic
tive purposes to strike at them' and to
debase our politics to tne uses of for
eign intrigue. Their number is not
great as compared with the whole num-
Ton feel fine in a few moments. Your

Your clogged nostrils will open. The air

little of this fragrant, antiseptic cream
in your nostrils, let it penetrate through
every air passage of the bead; soothe

It is just what every cold and catarrh
sufferer needs. Don't stay stuf fed-up

ber of those sturdy hosts by which our
nation has been enriched in recent gen
erations out of virile foreign stocks,
but it is great enough to have brought
deep disgrace upon us and to haver
made it necessary that we should
promptly make use of processes of law
by which we may be purged of their
corrupt distempers. America never
witnessed anything like this before. It
never dreamed it possible that men,
sworn into its own citizenship, men
drawn out of great free stooks such as
supplied some of the best and strong
est elements of that little but now he
roic nation that in a high day of old
staked its very life to free itself from
every entanglement that had darkened
the fortunes of the older nations and
set up a new standard here that men
of such origins and such free choices
of allegiance would ever turn in malign
reaction against the government and
people who had welcomed and nutured
them and seek to make this proud coun
try once more a hotbed of European,
passion. But the ugly and incredible
thing has actually come about and we
are without adequate federal laws to)
deal with it. I urge you to enact such
-laws at the earliest possible moment
and feel that in doing so I am urging
you to do nothing less than save tii
honors and self respect of the nation.
Such creatures of passion, disloyalty
and anarchy must be crushed out."
Some Business Plans.
- Another grave question was for steps
to mobilize United States economio
measures in times of national neces
sity. The president indicated he plana
to use prominent men in manufacturing
and transportation to consult with
army and navy officials to aid in solu
tion of particular probloms of nation
al defense.
Conservatoin of national resources
by the enactment of conservation bills
is urged. We should put into early op
eration some provision for rural cred
its but did not specify any particular
plan.
The transportation problem is an ex
ceedingly serious and pressing one.
Tho regulation of the railroads by a
federal commission has had admirable
results, he continued. The question is
whether there is anything we can do in
regulation for bettering the conditions
under which the railroads are operated
and for making them more useful ser
vants of the country.
