vised by the chief of engineers that
there was on hand January 1 an unex-
pended balance of s1,2OO,OOO for the bar
1T the mouth of the Columbia river.
The amount for the river between
Portland and the sea was less than
100000. For this project Major
Langfitt recommended $1,200,000, but
the war department cut the amount
down to $4,000, believing that no
more than that amount could be
utilized in one year. It was stated by
the chief of engineers that the half
million, if it could be obtained this
year by any means, would be sufficient
until a river and harbor bill could be
passed early in the session, perhaps
before the holiday recess.
The engineers recommended. and
the war department concurred in the
Recommendation for the appropriation
of 100000. In addition, $125.000 is ia
vored for dredging. 1t is deemed very
important, the senators say, that this
appropriation should be made, but
under the existing conditions it cannot
go in the regular sundry civil bill, in the
regular course. All of the Oregon i'm
prOvements, except The Dalfes, are eff
fected, and it is doubtful whether
anything can be done before January
of next year. 1t is the intention of the
delegation to make the very best fight
possible on the Oregon improvements.
1t is the opinion of the chief of engi-
neers that the uneXpended apprOpria-
ton for the mouth of the Columbia is
as much as can be utilized in the next
calendar year. but it is different as to
the Improvement of me river from
Portland to the sea. 1t may be that a
recommendation from the chief of en-
gineerS Will be obtained which will
enable the delegation to secure special
consideration for this project. but other
localities viii be likely to make the
same demand.

WOMEN IN SLAUGHTER HOUSES

Few people know to what extent
woman is invading the great packing
houses. The number in the Chicago
s ock yards has almost doubled IN the
past year. At the present time two
thousand women are employed there.
1t is true that little less than half
that number are engaged in the revolt
ing work described, the majority being
employed in painting and labelling
cans, wrapping and packing soap and
butterine. To such work the butchers
make no objection, says Luke Grant
in The World Today. But the number
engaged in the less pleasing occupa.
ton is gradually being increased.
Last summer the sausage makers at
the stock yards went on strike. The
strike was not sanctioned by the ma.
tional officers of the organization, and
when the men refused to return to
work the packers proceeded to fill their
places with women. The union could
not oDjec'. The men had struck with
out authority. The women are al it
today, filling, linking and trimming
sausage TIE men are seeking work.
What wages the women are paid is
known only t. themaelg and their
employers. They are Lithuanian
peasant women. Few c 81 eak the
English language. To organize them
would be practically impossible, even
were it advisable, which the nnion
officials do not believe But at fire
quent intervals few men are laid off
and a few more women are hired.

roo NUMEROUS TIE ORDERS,

Americas, like Albany and every
other Georgia city, has lodges of about
all the secret orders extant, and there
will probably be others here as rapidly
as they originate, Members here, as
elsewhere, are taxed for time to attend
all the meetings, though they doubtless
find degree of satisfaction therein.
Editor Mcintosh, of the Albany
Herald, wisely treats the subject or
secret orders as follows:
'What might be termed secret or
der craze has been on IN this country
for some years now, and the result
is that the secret order business is
being largely overdone. There are
now too many of these secret orders
in exlstance, and other are being in
troduced to divide honors with. and
detract from the interest taken in,
those already in existence.
eve do not wish to be understood
as saying anything against secret
orders. The writer belongs to a
number of them himself, but if he at
tended meetings of all of them and
fulfilled the duties and requirements of
all, he would have little time to devote
to anything else.
And so it is with the average secret
order man. They are tax upon the
pockets and the time of the members
for which there is but little compensa-
ton.
owe have here in Albany lodge of
Masons, Or two lodges of Masons-
Master Masons and Royal Arch Ma
sons-and lodge each of the orders
of Knights of Pythias, knights of
Honor, Odd Fellows, Elks, Ancient
Order of United Workmen and several
other mutual benefit or insurance
orders, all of which require dues and
assessments and demand more or less
of a members time.
"W1th this array of secret orders, it
would be hard to find room for
another in Albany. but there are oth~
ers coming, no doubt.
