Boston newspapers are taking some
lessons in regard TO interfering with
cases pending In court. The editor Of

CONCERNING case on trial that guilt is
evident" This was deemed sufficient to
warrant the discharge of the jury, thus
uecessitating a new trial. This prema-
named above.

regimental commanders Sept. 20, last,
direc cling them To report to him concern

Hon. j. 81. Manley OF Augusta will be
candidate for the speakership of the
House OF Representatives in 1901 and
has 30 informed his political friends.
Aspirants for these offices have to move
early and make known their desires
years before the time or they are liable
to get left. Doubtless there will be a
full crop of candidates for this desirable
and important place.

Houlton has taken the first water in
the normal school race. A resolve has
been presented calling for the modest
sum of S25,000 for a normal school
building in that enterprising town.
Better wait until the next Legislature
meets, two years hence. There is no
haste about it. Wait until the State Is a
little better able to meet the heavy
drafts being made upon its treasury.
Give the tax payers a chance to get
breath before calling for the establish
ment Of more normal schools.

Congress is disposed to do the right
thing by very brave man. The Senate
committee on naval affiirs has decided
to report favorably the Joint resolution
reviving the rank of admiral in the in
terests of Rear Admiral Dewey. The
resolution was so amended as to extend
the time of his retirement for 10 years.
The result in Wisconsin gives a net
Republican gain OF fourteen In the

Special Dispatch to the Post-Inteiligencer.
WASHINGTON. Oct 3o-Following are
the estimates OF the chief of engineers for
river and harbor improvements:
Amounts that can be proiitably expended
during the next fiscal year: Upper Column
bia and Snake rivers. $l0,o0: Cascades
canal. $4,000; Columbia, below Tongue
point. $3.50: Lewis river. $l0.s Cowiitz
$500: Grays harbor. $34S. 900, Chehans river.
5000; Puget sound tributaries. SS 90.
Olympia harbor. $4,000: Lake Washington
waterway. 500. 900; Everett harbor. 3l5o $50:
Swinomsh slough, %7.co; Okanogan river.
$15,0oo: Pend d'Oreiile river. $20.ooo
The Lake Washington waterway appears
to be looked upon with great favor. The
project is reviewed from its inception by
the chief OF engineers. who says:
since the original estimates Of the cost
Of this Improvement were made, several
changes in the plan have been adopted. all
of which materially affect its cost 1t Is
probable, however, the estimate at the
present time would he less than the orig
inal maximum estimate. Detailed plans
will he prepared soon as the title is ac-
cepted and construction commenced as soon
as possible"
Inc aESt 4pt IL acou>
one-haf the amount required for compet-
ing the improvement
Regarding the Swinomish slough. Gen
Wilson says:
1T Is very desirable that the slough be
opened with the least delay practicabl and
n Is recommended the full amount to COM
piete the project be appropriated"
The boat railway project at The Dalles
gets a black eye from the chief Of engin-
eers who says: II am informed that steam
boat men and others interested in the pro-
posed Improvement between The DaIies
and Cello DO not regard the construction
Of the boat railway with favor. They pre-
fer a portage road or canals and locks. A
portage road would perhaps answer every
purpose for several years TO come and
It could be constructed. equipped and op-
Grated at far less expense than tho boat
railway. AS no appropriation has been
made since 1896, the secretary OF war has
decided 10 defer action In the matter until
congress definitely determines whether or
not the work OF constructing the boat rail-
way shall continue"
A balance Of over $14JS sttl remains for
the improvement Of the Columbia a. Van
couver, with So. ono for Olympia. which Gen.
Wilson estimates will complete the improve
ment there and says should all be appro-
priated at one time.
