Of Interest 10 Oregon.

A dispatch from Washington states
that Secretary Lamont having failed
to make any recommendation for the
contract works in Oregon and Wash
ton contained in the last river and
harbor bill, it il doubtful if any ap.
preparations will be made at this
session. The secretary of the treasury
in submitting the usual estimates puts
ID table containing the various con-
tracts authorized, and among them is
named Yaquina bay and Gray's har-
Dor, and an estimate of $4,000 each.
these being the amounts necessary If
the contracts had been made. As
these estimates do not come from the
secretary of war it is possible that no
appropriations will be made. The
willamette river with 100000, is also
not recommended. Senator Mitchell
is trying to get these appropriations
made.

ically interrupted by the high tide, the
pillars on which the big building are to
rest are being rapidly constructed. Two
new iron watts have been put in place
and the stone work is being hustled
along at great rate
One wonders when watching the big
army of men at work, that more acci-
dents do not occur, but very few of the
workmen have been injured, and those
who have met with accidents have been
but slightly hurt. This ia due to care
full management. as much as anything

Honor to Whom Honor Is Due.

The writer, who went to Saco Satur-
day and saw the game of football be-
tween Thornton Academy and Coburn
Classical Institute begs leave to make a
few plain statements, not excuses, about
the game. One might think from the
reports that Coburn was not only lie.
feated, bat outplayed and outclassed,
while in reality the Coburn team played
the better game of the two. Coburn
was very much crippled BY the absence
of Thayer from left tackle. as it WAS
through that position that Thornton
made many of her gains. The umpire's
decisions as to downs were decidedly
questionable. in the first half especial
ly. and he was callsd to question by the
linesmen several times. but paid no at
tention to them. At no time in the game
after the first seven minutes was Co.
burns goal in danger, while for two
thirds of the whole game the ball was in
Thornton's territory. Cole and Emery
played splendid foot ball for Thornton,
getting into every play. while for Coburn,
Rice, Brakeman and P. Clark did excel
lent work. CLARK, by the way, is one of
the nghtest men In the state, playing
on an academy or high school team.
He weight 1872 pounds stripped and dur
ing the whole game allowed no man to
go by him. There issno doubt but that
Coburn Is the better team of the two, and
If Thornton doubts this, Coubrn stands
ready to meet them again and prove be-
yond question which Is the better team.
One thing is certain, Co5urn plays clean
foot ball from beginning to end.
