Look Out for the Harbor Bill
portland Evening Journal.)


If the rivers and harbors appropria-
ton bill should fail to pass at the pres
ent session of congress Oregon would
be left in a crippled condition. While
there are other things needing attention
the greatest enterprise so far as the
whole state and it's commercial pres
tige is concerned is bound up in the
Columbia river. The work which has
been done during the past two seasons
at the mouth of the river has demon
strated the perfect feasibility of the
jetty enterprise. Indeed the work orig
inally undertaken here and unwisely
abandoned before it reached its 1ogi-
cal termination demonstrated conclus-
lively that the engineers We're on the
right track and that they could produce
the results which they claimed and
which were Of such great consequence
Of the country The problem involved
Is now thoroughly understood. The
shoaling at the mouth of the river is
not caused by the material which is
carried down by the river itself but by
the littoral currents sweeping up the
coast. The building of the jetty so
concentrates and strengthens the river
current that it defects the ocean cur
rent so that it deposits the accumula-
tions which it holds in solution in the
deep water instead of at the mouth of
the river. In this manner the problem
of removing the bar is solved and a
low water stage Of 35 to 40 feet is in
sured.
With such low water stage, instead
of "a feet, the second largest river in
the country becomes of vastly increased
consequence and adds immensely to the
states. The condition of the great
river between Portland and Astoria
needs more or less attention and then
above, beyond The Dalles, we have the
great ship canal project which will
open the river for 400 miles to unim-
peded navigation. This project. for
which the state has donated the right
OF way. should in no event be affected
by the fate of the present river and
harbor bill. though 1t will require a
good deal Of care and much pushing
to get it started in the way it is headed.
The Importance of the bill to Ore
gon and this section of the country can
not we'll be overestimated. If it fails
to pass there is no money available to
continue any of the work in the state
and we are left high and dry in this
respect until congress reconvenes next
December. Besides we would then
have to face the need of OF larger APP
preparations than otherwise would
have been required to repair the dam
age done by the winter storms to work
already in process of completion. Every
| atom of influence that Oregon can
bring ito bear should be exerted in the
passage Of the river and harbor bill, i'm
which respect no state can make out a
cleaner or stronger case and absolutely
none is in a position to make a more
legitimate demand for relief from the
federal government

Governor Gooding's message will be
read with interest and pleasure by the
Reople of the state. 1t is clear cut and
decisive on all issues that the public
expected him to outline. The recon-
mendations are especially business like
and show that Governor Gooding has a
good grasp of real\conditions as they
prevail In the several departments of
Ehe state. His idea Of liberal dealing
with the state institutions and build
Tfhe future Is one that will be heartily
seconded by the people who have
slearned that parsimonious dealing is
the worst OF economy. The recon-
ssmendations on the reorganization Of
the state land department are well TAX
en and the people will be pleased to
know that the interests Of that rapidly
growing department are to be properly
safeguarded and all rights OF the sew
'eral state institutions protected. The
message carries out the idea that Gov
srnor Gooding intends to stand pat on
all his campaign promises and all the
legislation promised is strongly urged
upon the legislature and they can act
with the assurance that the admins
tration will give such legislation its full
support. 1t Is well to note in this con-
nection that bills have already been
introduced evidently administration
sfneasures to carry out the recommen-
siations Of the message. This is to be

istration business is early In evidence.

ben Of Broken Bow"

ben of Broken Bow" is the
unique title of Edith Ellis Bak-
er's new play in which Franklin
Woodruff has the title role, and
iii which he will appear at the
Court Square theater this after
noon and evening. Broken Bow
is the name of now prosperous
town in Nebraska. The first
postmaster named it after an
Indians broken bow that he found
i'll the canyon. The post Office
department gladly welcomed the
name as veritable addition to
the nomenclature of the post
office list. Ben Martin, the part
that is taken by Mr., Woodruff,
is a cowboy, a physical giant
and hero who falls in love with
an Eastern girl and follows he
to New York. Here with the
most modest ideas of his own
gifts and accomplishments, he de-
velops into All ideal "Gibson
Man." and appears to quite as
much advantage as he did on
the range. He has a triumph
ant love scene in the last act.

Female Masonry.

Behind closed doors at the
opera house last Monday night,
in the presence of several hun
dred spectators, the members of
Queen of Sheba Lodge No. |,
f. M, exposed the mysterious
and hidden secrets Of their or
ganlzation with a vim that al
most took ones breath away.
The occasion was the DELAYED
Hallow en- entertainment entitled
"Female Masonry" and was pre-
scented by the Ladies Guild of st.
Johns Episcopal church. That
the aialr was both an artistic
and financial success, was shown
by continued applause and the
large number of people present.
Promptly at $50 O'clock the out
er doors were closed and a long
procession OF white robed figures
entered and solemnly ranged
themselves in the center of the
hall, where a large open space
had been cleared. Then followed
d thrilling expose of initiation
work that was thoroughly de-
lIghtiul from beginning to end,
some OF the ladies showing an
aptitude Tor stage business that
was almost professional. II is 10
be regretted that lack Of space
forbids a thorough review of this
clamoring production; where all
dld so well it is hard to discrimi-

They were waiting for a fresh deck
Of cards and some other things and
one of them felt moved to say: Those
Nantucket people must find it pretty
tough to>be completely shut off from
civilization two or three weeks every
winter" Huh" grunted a man across
the table, you don't know the Nam
tucketers, do you? At any date, you
miss their point Of view. They twist
the situation plum around and figure
that it's pretty tough on what little
civilization the re is out Of their bloom
ing island to be shut of from them.
The boots on the other leg. In their
opinion, unless you were born and
brought up in Nantucket you're no
great shakes. They'll tell you that
when they're icebound there's 10 end
of excitement on tine mainland because
nobody can get to them, bnt they don't
want you to suppose for u moment that
they're anxious to get to other folks,
and there's no make-believe about it
either. And it isn't that they haven't
seen the rest Of the world, for they
have. They're just satisfied with them
selves and their surroundings. What's
more, they're cute in the head, those
natives. Ever go into that heirloom
shop CT theirs OH the main street Of the
village? They've sold enough Nan
tucket warming pans and ships clocks
and spinning wheels and foreign idols
in that store to stuff the British Mu-
scum twice over, but the stock never
runs low; it's a high-tide stock summer
after summer. There isn't a rich fam
lily anywhere that can't boast Of a
Nantucket relic or souvenir made in
New Jersey and stained with age-or
stain. If you've a notion that those
mariners and descendants Of mariners
on that sand waste allow the jokes on
them when a steamer can't plow her
way through to them, you want to talk
with them."-Providence Journal.
