FEARS NOT AN INVASION.
William Whyte Thinks Traffic Won't
be Diverted.

MONTREAL, Feb. civilian II.
Whyte. second president OF the
Canadian Pacific railway, when he
was asked if he thought the new lines

ern is reported to be promoting, would
result in diverting much traffic from
Canada into the states, said: L 90
not hardly think so. Of course Hill IS
not appearing in the matter himself,
but he IS believed to be behind the
nrc:e for a new line from the border
up to brandon and westward to Re-
gina. He will not appear on the sur
fac, THO line will be promoted by
local men, who are friendly to the gov
ernment and they will sell their char
ter to Hill
You think the scheme will go
through the legislature?"
Il would not be surprised. OF
course, true patriotism should slim
ulate our western people and lead them
to assert their influence to prevent
Canadian products from finding their
way to British markets by United
States routes. but am afraid patriotic
sentiment would not in all cases
weigh much against cheap rates.
However, our rates areScheaper than
those of the Great Northern, so I do
not think the new lines, which are
simply intended to be feeders of the
Gerat Northern, will take much Can
adam traffic. 1t would not be to the
interest of the Great Northern to cut
it's rates below the usual tariff in order
to get that traffic. Our people rea-
lie that money they spend on the
states railways does not come into
the country again, whereas that spent
on railways in Canada is spent for the
most part in Canada providing work
for our own people and building up our
own institutions

CHINA AWAKENING GIANT.
Boycott and Its Meaning Part Of Big
Commercial War.

No account of this wonderful awak-
ening can fail to recognize the agency
of Chang, the viceroy of central chi
ma, says Worlds Work. A senior opti-
sion to the new school of thought was
accomplished by the victory of Japan
of the battle cleared away when he
wrote for his subordinates a book and
instructions entitled. Education, Chi
mas Only Hope" Laid before the
throne it had, along with Kang, not a
little share in impelling the young en-
peror to enter on that precipitate ca
reer of reform which caused his down.
fall. Distributed by imperial COM
mand it also prepared the way for re-
form on a national scale.
He has Japanese drill masters to
train his troops, if necessary to re-
sist Japan, and he has had experts
in the arts from America, Great Brit
ain and Germany to prepare his peo-
pie for a commercial conflict with the
great nations of the west The banks
of the river in front of his capital
Wuchang. are lined for miles with cot
ton mills. hemp works. silk failures.
glass works. iron foundries and powder
mills. whose high chimneys proclaim
the coming war. When China can sup
ply her own markets. foreign steam
ers will cease to ascend the Yangtseki-
ang.
Going within the walls we are struck
by the great number of fine scfpol-
houses in foreign style that rise above
the huts of the natives. Our clever
viceroy knows that the industrial arts
have their root in science, and that
science must be taught in schools.

Commissioners viii Think About
MaCadam Roads Awhile.
WAIT FOR COUNTY Attorney WILSON
Lack of Funds in Exchequer Ma,
Prevent Carrying Out Improve
ments Until Next Year.

No action will be taken by the coun-
ty commissioners On the petitions filed
yesterday for matchmaking several
county roads leading into Walla Walla
until the return of Prosecuting Attor-
nye Wilson from Olympia, where he is
arguing several cases before the SUI
preme court. Attorney Wilson is ex-
pected home either tomorrow or Thurs
day, when five petitions filed will be
taken up and ways and means for car
rying out the proposed improvements
will be discussed. the lack of funds
in the county's exchequer seems to be
about the only obstacle confronting
the commissioners at present, but it
has been suggested that the roads
could be improved and warrants issued
for the cost, these to be provided for
when the next tax levy is fixed.
Late yesterday afternoon petitions
for macadimizing the upper Milton
road between the city limits and the
state line, distance of nearly five
miles, and the Macarthur extension Of
the Wallula road were filed with the
commissioners, making five petitions
in all, calling for nearly 10 miles of
road improvements. In addition to
these several other road matters were
taken up by the commissioners and
disposed Of as far as the board was
able.
The road petitioned for by Joel
Woods and others was ordered exam
ined by the surveyor An examination
of proposed change in what is known
as the old Maxwell road was ordered
also. The change was petitioned for
by William A. Willis. An order was
entered setting the hearing of the H.
H. Hansen petition for March at ID
o'clock. A road petitioned for by Bruce
Ferrel was ordered established.

Seattle Engineer is The Choice Of
the City Council.
Superintendent OF WATER SYSTEM
With Thomson, but Gives Out No
Advance information.

1t is pretty certain that r. H. Thorn
son, city engineer of Seattle, will be
selected as consulting engineer in the
construction of Walla Walla's gravity
water system. Engineer Thomson ar
rived from Seattle this morning and
has been in consultation with the spec
ial advisory committee nearly all day.
Chairman Turner, however stated at
noon that the committee had reached
recommendation, although it is gen.
orally believed that the Seattle engi-
neer will land the plum. Five members
Of the council, it is said, are in favor
Of Thomson, irrespective of any other
recommendations the special advisory
committee will make.
1t developed today that Engineer
Weile was called to Walla Walla to
consult with the special committee. A
representative of Young & Kelsey, a
Salt Lake hydrauli firm, has also ar
rived in Walla Walla at the invitation
of the special advisory committee.
The question of a consulting engineer
will be settled at a joint meeting of
the council and advisory committee to
be held at the city hall this evening.
The awarding of pipe contracts will
probably be delayed another week in

JARS RAILROAD ALLIES.
Democratic Senator's DOMINICAN Speech
Makes Them Quake.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 6.-The
president is highly gratified over SEN
ator Patterspns speech in favor of the
Santo DOMINICAN treaty. 1t is the best
evidence the administration mas yet
had that the treaty will be ratified.
The administration had been counting
terson and Morgan, and, with these
added, there will be five democratic
votes or more than enough.
This is merely a part of the general
opposition to Mr.. Roosevelt, prompted
by the railroads, and it remains to be
seen whether it can be made to work
German has failed with his plan to
marshal the democratic senators into
partisan opposition to the Roosevelt
policies as a whole, and is now trying
to secure that opposition on one policy

Railroad Senators Jared.
The Patterson speech created con-
sternation among the railroad senators
on the republican side of the chamber.
All the republicans have been saying
they were for the treaty and that it
would be ratified if only the democrats
could be made to see the light. Fora
kerr Elkins and Aldrich nave been LOUD
in their claims of friendliness for the
treaty, assuming that German would
be able to hold the democratic MEM
bers in check. Now that Patterson and
Morgan have openly announced thei"
intention to vote for the treaty, and
some three or four others are under
suspicion. Foraker, Elkins, Aldirch and
others are wondering where they are
at"
With the treaty ratified there will be
only statehood and the Philippine tar

to railroad legislation. and it is begin
