Makes Proposition.


"In support of our position in rec
ognition Of the proposition from the
Taxpayers League we have not allowed
any ordinary proposition TO sway us In
regard to the immediate necessity for
rebuilding and repairing city bridges,
but since the figures submitted are so
very much 20 the interests Of the city,
we beg that we may have the authority
Of the council TO enter into negotiations
with the committee Of the Taxpayers
League whereby IL may undertake the
work, and thus relieve us, as we think,
Of the large expenditure necessarily in.
volved under our estimates, and which
we do not see fit 20 outlay, when the
work can be prosecuted for so much
less by the Taxpayers League. While
we think our estimate on South Com.
mercial street bridge at 10000, to be
covered by bond issue, was conserva-
tive, yet the proposition from the Tax
payers League to keep this bridge in
good repair and serviceable condition
for FIVE years at a cost Of only $500 is
worthy Of acceptance, and we recon.
mend this offer be accepted. We fur.
ther recommend that not only the fg.
ures be accepted in relation TO the
South Commercial street bridge, but
inasmueh as the figures are materially
lower on every bridge covered in our
report, It would seem advisable to ae-
cept them in lieu OF our own estimates.
II would not be in keeping with good
business principles TO accept the prop
osition of the Taxpayers League with

instruct this, your committee, to enter

tives Of the Taxpayers League, and,

TANNER A STRONG WITNESS
Tells About Mltehelrs Efforts to Have
Books DESTROYED.


Portland, June a3.-The session of
yesterday morning opened with ex-
Judge Tanner upon the stand, where he
remained until the evening adjourn.
ment, and was then not much more
than half through with his testimony.
At the beginning of his examination,
the witness stated that he, had made
another agreement with Kribs on Feb
ruary Is, 1909, in regard to another
list OF land to be expedited. He also
identified the entry in the books relat-
ing to the first payment OF $500 rs
cash retainer for the services of the
firm. This entry had been changed,
however, about the time OF the Puter
trial to read Cash retainer in second
lieu ist,'' instead Of Cash retainer
in s, A. d, Puter list, I" as it had form
erly been. He had done this because
he was afraid that harm might come
from the entries if they happened to be
found.
The witness also stated that the re,
ceipts for the month OF February had
been divided between himself and
Mitchell, and demonstrated from the
book how Mitchell had received his
half Of the 5000 check,
The prosecution now began the in
PRODUCTION of the correspondence which
had passed between the senator and
Mr.. Tanner during all of this time,
which correspondence treated of the
Kribs matter and referred to the fees to
be received, and contained requests
and directions to the senator as to his
procedure in Washington in expediting
the claims, lists of which had been sent
to him. One letter told of promised
fee of 81, 900, and related to the fee to
be paid the senator for assisting in a
Chinese case. Other letters urged the
senator to take up the Kribs matters
personally with Hermann, and hurry
them through, as the payment OF the
fees due depended upon the haste with
which the patents were issued.
kilograms showing the activity of
the senator at Washington were also
introduced and read to the jury, which
related to actions done by the senator
and to the conclusions reached by the
department, presumably as result OF
the influence he had brought to bear
upon the commissioner.
During the day the courtroom was
crowded with many members OF the
local har Mapv pf than, ahook handa

journed both at noon and in the after
noon. A number of the senator's
friends were present and he was con-
graduated on his birthday During the

testimony,

FINISHES WITH TANNER.
Prosecution Through with Star Wit
ness and Defense Takes Him.

Portland, June 24.-Judge A. II.
Tanner, the governments star witness
against Senator Mitchell, in the land
fraud cases, now on trial before Judge
De Haven, is in the hands Of the at
torneys for the defense. For II Il
hours the former friend and business
partner of the senator from Oregon has
been on the witness stand. The things
to which he has testified, the mass Of
documentary evidence to which he has
sworn as having passed between him
self and Senator Mitchell, has been
damaging to degree to the defendant.
Today ex-senator Thurston and
Judge Bennett will begin their determ-
ined effort to break down this mass OF
testimony and especially to draw forth
admissions tending to show that the
senator had no guilty knowledge when
he received his share of the firms fees
in the Kribs transactions.

CALL HAS BEEN ISSUED.
Trans-Mississippi Congress Soon to
Gather In Portland.

Portland, June %. - The call has
gone out for the Sixteenth Annual
Trans. Mississippi congress to take place
in Portland, August l6, II, IS and l9.
The executive committee has sent out
word to governors of states and terri
tories, mayors OF cities, boards of coun-
ty commissioners, chambers of com
merce and trade organizations to ap-
point their delegates and send them to
take part. And this they will surely
do, for the Trans Mississippi congress,
being, as its name implies, OF peculiar
interest to those states this side OF the
Mississippi riter, has become an event
OF particular significance. Moreover,
there are certain matters of high i'm.
portance to come before the body.
The Pacific trade will be the chief
topic of conference, as the official call
points out. Though this has come be-
fore the congress previously, the force
of it has never been brought out as it
will here on account of the contiguity
of Portland to the Orient. Trade rela-
tions with the Far East will be exploit
ed to the end that the best methods
may be adopted to secure the Oriental
commerce to the trans-Mississippi
states.
The executive committee also points
out the increasing demand for Depart
ment of Mines and Mining, with its
head member of the presidents cab
met. An effort will be made to secure
action from the national congress to-
wards the establishment of such de-
partment.

TIME OF ITS LIFE.
Congressional irrigation Committee Is
Won by the West.


Reno, New, June 24.-The congress
sional irrigation party has experienced
one continuous round of pleasure from
the time II left Kansas City on June |
up to the present moment, and the
stack of invitations on hand indicates
that the last half of the trip will be
crowded just as full of enjoyment as
the first. Each city visited had en-
deavored TO outdo the other and each
rural district has attempted to demon
strate that it y the one garden spot"
of the country. There have been ban
quets galore, not dress affairs, but cor
dial meetings lacking in formality and
pervaded by that spirit OF hospitality
which characterizes the entire West.
The gates of the several cities have
been opened wide, the liberties OF the
party have been unrestrained, and the
result has been that everybody has had
a bully good time. When the party
enters a city, it becomes the city's
guest, and in no instance has a city
along the route failed to turn out to do
honor to the visiting lawmakers.
The trip is necessarily hurried; little
time is allowed for sightseeing. Every
thing is sacrificed to the cause OF irri-
cation.

ing OF the plenipotentiaries having
been submitted to Russia and being
o under consideration. The exact
date proposed has not been ascertain
ed, but there is reason to suppose
that 1t is some time during the first
week or ten days of August, which
is about the earliest date which the
Japanese representatives could be ex-
pected to reach Washington, allow
ing reasonable time for the acceptance
of the proposal and the interchange of
the nominations for plenipotentiaries.
The emperor's answer is not ex-
rected for a day or two, as the diplo-
matte mills of Russia grind slowly,
and the foreign office, as one of the
secretaries put 1t, "is not used to our
hustling American Methods" but 1t
is thought that the date will be salts
factory as it will give ample time for
Nelidoff, the Russian ambassador at
Paris, or other Russin negotiators to
reach Washington, and as there will
be little preliminary work for them
to do until the Japanese terms are
submitted.
Whether the proposal regarding the
date originated at TOXIC or at Wash
ington cannot be learned, but the fact
that the negotiations were conducted
through Ambassador Meyer may indi-
cate that the president has perhaps
again stepped to the fore and has
suggested to the two powers, neither
