BETTER
CHANNEL
ASSURED
Willamette River Appr0pria-
tlOn Sufficient to Give q
Results

The great Importance of the large
appropriation made by congress for
the improvement of the Willamette
river will be realized by the producers
and consumers of the valley, when
steamboat navigation is made eompara
lively, easy on the upper river. The
amount to be expended is considered
sufficient to give a good channel from
the mouth of the Yamhill to Corvallis
under all ordinary conditions. The Cor
wallis Times, in commenting on the
amount of traffic on the upper river,
says:
"There is deep local interest in the
$4,000 congress has appropriated for
the improvement of the Willamette.
The sum is the largest ever set aside
for this work, and there is wide belief
that great benefit will inure to upper
river navigation as the result of
wise expenditure of. the funds. The
Yamhill river is included in the allow
ance, but of course it is the upper Will
lamette that is mostly representative
of important interests. Within the
past week the Oregona has brought 10
900 bushels of wheat from upper river
points to the Fischer mills In the
same time more than $4,000 pounds of
-four have been carried by steamboat
to Portland from Corvallis for ship
ment abroad. A single shipment the
other day was more than 240O pounds
of mohair, and another single ship
ment was PAYS pounds of cream, rep
resenting more than $4,000 pounds of
milk Another shipment was 3lOs doz-
en- of eggs. On in-ffeights each arriv.
ing boat brings 10000 to 10000 pounds
all in spite of the irregularity of the
service since the low stage of water
began.
The shipments, taken at random,
show the wide diversity of interests
that the Willamette steamers serve,
and how important it is that the river
as far as possible be improved for the
service of this large clintage. The
distribution of the funds is in the hands
of Major Langftt, at Portland, and it
is very probable that the money will
not only be expended wisely but most
economically, and at the same time be
put where the largest interest and wild,
est clientel will be served.
1t is matter of extremist import.
ance that steamboat navigation of the
Willamette be safe guarded and encour.

the chief of police here received tele-
gram from a Mr.. Cook; of Miller, warn
ing him to prevent his daughter, Car
oline Cook, member of the normal
graduating class, from leaving Madison
until he could arrive there, as he had
good reason to believe that she was in
tending to marry a young man not
Endorsed by the family The trains
were watched and the young woman
made no attempt to leave town. A day
or two later her father arrived, and
after a long talk with his daughter
he announced to the authorities that
his daughter had given up all idea Of
elopement and that everything was all
right. On commencement day the
young woman graduated with honors
from the school and at the close Of
the program entered. a speedy auto
mobile and was conveyed to Sioux
Falls, where she married the young
man of her choice.
While the father feels that rs has
been badly deceived still, as the young
woman was of legal age, 1T is doubtful
If his interference could have in any
way altered the result
Miss Cook is highly spoken of by
her instructors and classmates at the
school, was good student and was ex-
pected to make a splendid teacher un-
