VOICE RAISED FOR CHINESE
President of Portland Commercial
Club Would Have Few
Laborers Admitted.

PORTLAND, Ore, July l2.-President w.
D. wheelwright of the Chamber of Com
merce of this city, on behalf Of that or
Eanization, has sent letter to President
Roosevelt bearing upon the question of
Chinese exclusion. The letter urges Pres
ident Roosevelt to take steps toward
negotiating a new treaty with China that
shall provide for the removal of the ex-
acting conditions that now attach to the
entrance into this country of their mer-
chants, students and professional men, for
the absolute freedom of all Chinese resi-
dents of this country to visit their own
land and return here and for the admis-
sion during the next ten years of a num-
Der of male Chinese laborers that in any
one year shall not exceed one-tenth Of /
per cent of the population OF this country.
American labor has little appreciation of
its own dignity and power, as well as of
its capabilities for Improvement, If 1t
raises objections to such limited Chinese
immigration as that-amounting in ten
years to less than l per cent of our popu-
lation-and thus endeavors to deprive the
nation Of this additional means to it's own
development, not only in this country, but
in the Hawaiian and Philippine islands and
Panama.
The president is asked to give publicity
to his intentions in this regard as soon
as practicable.

and Joins Ward Club.

When the new Tenth Ward Republican
club was organized Tuesday night 1t took
in a brother who had long strayed from
the fold-no less a parsonage than Ernest
z. STUNT, he who contested for a demo-
cratic seat in the council at the last mu-
nicipal election and times prior without
number.
The records disclosed that the old war
horse had registered as a republican last
fall. His admission into the new club was
vouched for by Fred Benin and other deep
rooted Ioyalists. Mr.. STUNT made a speech,
saying the republican party had left him,
and finding himself some distance away
and the Mahomet scheme no good had
decided to come and ask forgiveness ana

fee and was duly enrolled as charter

RETURNS FROM VISIT TO PACIFIC CoAS7

Colonel r. w. Richardson, known
throughout the country as secretary Of the
National Good Roads association and as an
apostle of good roads, returned to his home
in Omaha yesterday after an extended trip
to the Pacific coast, where he attended the
National Good Roads convention and
viewed the natural beauties of the north
west corner of the country.
The good roads convention was held al
Portland June % and "a and was attended
by over 500 delegates. When the election
of national officers was called in the order
of business the wires became so warm that
1t finally was decided to postpone the cleo
ton until November, when the association
will meet at ST. Louis and the officers will
be elected II is probable that Colonel
Richardson will be a candidate for the pres.
idency of the association and 1t is believed
to be equally probable that the distin-

ton.
Asked yesterday regarding his candidacy
Mr. Richardson practically admitted, with
a twinkle of the eye, that he is in the
hands of his friends"
state Highway Commission.
Speaking Of good roads in Nebraska, Mr..
Richardson said:
This state should have a highway COM
mission with backing OF expert road en-
gineers and a state appropriation for the
main roads of the state. Illinois and other
states recently have appointed state high
way commissions and made large appropri-
atoms for the work. Every dollar invested
in good roads will come back like bread
cast on the waters. Such commercial inter-
ests as transportation lines, automobile
companies and other interests should lend
a hand to the maintenance of state roads
and even in instances take the initiative In
promoting the good work.
'Macadamized roads are still the most
popular form OF permanent roads, al
though in some sections form of hard
ened brick is being used with much sue
cess. 1t is practically impossible to con-
struct a good roadway out of the natural
roadbed.
THE automobile has and is doing much
for the advancement of the cause of good
roads throughout the country. In some
parts of the west l noticed the railroad
companies have inaugurated automobile
service from the railroad to points OF in
terest.
Nebraska should get in line with high
way commission. l feel sure 1t will before
long. The roads should not be left exclu-
sively to the rural districts"

Channel.

IAN hands aloft! Haul taut on the

Make all snug on the weather beam and
set the pinnacle three points to port! Get
ready with your snubbn' line and take a
hog-hitch around the jackstaff"
AYE, aye, sir"
II was the gallant r. c. Gunter and It
was bravely breasting the swollen tide of
the murky Missouri. Four times had the
siren of the trim craft hoarsey hooted at
tho man in the power house on the Illinois
Central drawbridge. This is the signal
prescribed by the War department to be
used by a boat when 1t wishes to announce
to the bridge man its intention to pass
through the draw, two long boots and two
short boots, and each of the boots a
hoarse one. Anything but a hoarse boot
doesn't go on the river. A shrill, little,
ladylike boot gets you nothing.
"NavIgatIOn L. Closed"
But the r. C. Gunter might as well have
used tin whistle or have saved its steam
altogether. The drawbridge didn't draw
not for a cent. The entire Omaha navy is
marooned and dehed by the railroad. II
can run down stream as far as it likes, but
1t can run up stream no farther than the
East Omaha bridge, for somebody con.
nected with the railroad has taken this oc.
casion to determine that navigation on the
Missouri river has closed. This may be
news to the War department as well as to
the owner of the steamboat and there is
just faint possibility that Ben Barrows
surveyor OF the port of Omaha and ex-
oficio steamboat inspector, hasn't heard OF
the abolition of the privileges and preroga-
tives of the steam-propelled craft of the
Missouri. 1t also takes lot of nerve even
for railroad man, to declare that the Mis-
souri, river is not a navigable stream.
At all events the Illinois Central bridge
tender has for the last four days resolutely
refused to open the draw for the r. C
Gunter, even when the boat has run Ut
with its bow well under the bridge. The
Gunter is light craft, built to run on q
heavy dew, and doesn't mount an arma-
ment heavy enough to sink a bark canoe
so It is at the mercy of the bridge. which
contains a trihe over 100000 pounds OF
steel in the draw span alone. SO, tenn.
porarily at least, navigation has closed or
the Missouri river.
