THE BILL for the union railroad sta
ton In Washington will come up again
before q House committee tomorrow.
The bill provides for a station In the
northeast section Of the city, and some
OF the members Of the House who have
regard for the convenience of the peo-
lie going tito Washington from the
South want sub.station established ct
q point southwest OF the intersection
OF Maryland avenue and Seventh
,treet. The committee has been urged
10 make this provision; the Southern
Railway officials cay they will favor 1t
and the Pennsylvania Railroad people
say they are agreeable. but the latter,
who seem 10 control Congress, make no
uention OF o sub.ftition In their bills
end unless they do, 1t is qute certain
that none will be established. 1t is
hoped that every Southern Congress
man will insist upon the sub-slation
amendment and II possible prevent the
passage of the bill unless that amend
ment is adopted. People from the en-
tire South goiEg into Washington do
not wish to be carried to the extreme
northeastern limit OF that city and
then be compelled to get back to GEN.

.-ruouou THE time for the adjourn.

ALTHOUGH THE time for the ADJOURN
mant of Congress 10 drawing near no
de6oite steps have been taken towards
the passage OF the bill for the building
n, thu Memorial bridge across the river
and the reason for this non.action 10
not apparent. When spoken t. indi'
yidually nearly every Senator and Rep
resertative favors the measure, but
collectively they let 1t severely alone
and not even the g. A. R, with its
powerful IL fuence, has 30 far been
able to induce Congress to act on the
bill to make an appropriation for laying
the cornerstone for the proposed bridge
during the meeting of the Grand En-
campmert in Washington next OCTOBER
There must be some reason for this de-
Law. Friends OF the measure have
been untiriDg In their efforts to secure
the passage of the bridge bill but their
Efforts 20 fer have been 10 vain. About
the Hobbies OF the Capitol it has recently
been whispered Nobody Is doing any
thing for the bridge" This was mis-
understood till q day or two ago, when
one fellow, holder than the others,
stated that 1910, 900 would carry the bill
through" This, Of course, means that

that money must be used to get any

Ia the case there will be no Memorial
bridge, for none OF Its true friends are
pecunlsrily interested to the extent OF
one cent and nothing Ia more foreign t.

bill. 1t is also hit ted in Washington
that powerful real estate interests there
are ready t, checkmste the bridge leg

FREE PASS NO BAR In an opinion,
Just handed down in the Court OF APP
pesls by Judge Keith, in the case OF the
Norfolk & Western Railway Company
vs. Tanner, that tribunal holds that no
agreement made by common carrier for
exemption from liability for Injury or
loss occasioned by mis- own negligence
or misconduct shall be valid. 1t is held
that whether the passenger is invited
or permitted to eItsr q train, whittier
upon a free pass or upon ticket for
which he has paid the usual charge, he
is in no sense a trespasser. The de-
cision is one OF the most important rem.
dered by the count in recent years, and
sets an important precedent bearing
upon suits for injury in travel. The
lower court Ia affirmed, and the person
injured, young women, is awarded
damages.

Yakima hive number "a OF Lady Mac
cabees, has had a very pleasant visit
from their state commander, Martha L.
Stuart. The lodge has spent some time
drilling this hive in their beautiful and
impressive work of the order
Yakima hive was first organized last
April, but on account of several of its
charter members being absent from
town this summer, the regular services

are holding regular services the first

The ladies are working hard to make
their hive one of the leading lodges OF
Yakima, as it well deserves to be.
Banded together as sisters, with the
spirit of true fraternity IN their hearts,
this lodge must surely swell its member

ROAD OVER CASCADES
AGAIN AGITATED
Recent Communication to Frank y.
Naqler from Senator Stewart of
Pierce County, ReviveS the
Gold Hill Road Question

The Yakima valley people and the
Gold Hill miners are again agitating the
question of road over the Cascades
into the Gold Hill country.
Senator Stewart of Pierce county, has
written letter to Frank Y. Nagler of
this city, who represents the miners in
the matter of building state road over
the mountains and informs him that he
will do everything in his power to have
bill passed for the completion of the
road. 1t is definitely know that Repre-.
sentative "Duc" Hare will introduce
the bill in the lower house, while Sena-
tor Jack Splawn will exert his influence
in the upper congress.
The Gold Hill road has been giving
the people of this valley and those who
have interests in the mining district a
great deal to think about for a decade or
more. A survey of the road was first
ordered by the United States govern
ment in 1858 and General, then Captain
McClelland was sent out to mark out
the route. He passed over the route in
that year, but cut no road as ordered to
do. The pioneers later cut the first
road and in 1856 the government i'm
proved upon it to such an extent that
travel became possible. 1t was only
used about a year however when the
Indian war broke out and mauradinp
bands of Indians felled trees across the
road and stopped all travel.
1t 1894 the state appropriated $4,000
to rebuild it, but this sum was only suf
ficient to complete one-half of the route
1t is thought that $4,000 will finish the
proposition and that is what Senators
Stewart and Splawn and Representative
Hare are going to try'and get.
