assent these leaders served notice
that the bill must be held down to
the lowest possible notch, and must
not be loaded down by the senate, or
It will be killed in conference.
This means that the house will
undertake to push through the bill
substantially as it is passed by that
body, and will not allow the senate
TO double its size by adding numer-
ous provisions for buildings not ap.
proved by the house committee.
Such a pronunciamento, of course,
means fight between the two
houses, for the senate is not inclined
ito be dictated to by the house, AMI
the house leaders at the same time
realize the danger of passing bill
of extravagant proportions, for such
a bill would deplete the revenues
and give the democrats an oppor-
tunity to cry extravaganza in ths
fall campaign.

moderate dimensions is passed, the
democrats will be given fair share

BOSTON, April 1O.-The republl-
can state convention today was call
ed to order by Chairman Doty OF the

The platform declares absolutely

Massachusetts, delegation in con-
gress will assist in wise revision
without abandoning the protective

WORK
IS REFERRED
COL. R0ESSLER WRITES THAT
IMPROVEMENTS ON SNAKE
WILL BE LOOKED AFTER BY
CAPTAIN WINsL0w. :.

The Commercial club has received
a communication from the Open
River association of Portland inclos-
ing a letter from 8. w. Roessler,
lieutenant colonel in charge of the
government engineers of that place
in which 1t is stated the matter of
improving the Snake river above
Lewiston has been referred to Cap
tain Winslow of the dredge boat
Wallowa.
Captain Winslow has been In
charge of the government improve
ment work for the past three years.
and previous to that time was en-
gagged in the navigation of the Snake
river steamers, Because of this
broad experience he is fully ac-
quainted with all conditions to be
encountered in the improvement
work on Snake river, and his recon-
mendations to the Portland ONCE
will doubtless determine the action
to be taken.
The improvements to the slaugh-
ter House rapids Is of special impor-
tance at this time. as the movement
of the grain crop from the upper
river will be materially retarded un-
less the relief sought is secured. The
plans Of the West Coast Portland
Cement company provide for spend
ing approximately $4,000 in the In
stallation of a plant during the
coming summer and fall and thi'
expenditure will involve larg'
amount of freight business to tn
upper river that should not be EN-
barrassed by the treacherous rapid
above the city.
| The cement plant, when In place
will supply freight to the amount o
loo barrels per day, and within
few months this capacity will be ma
terially enlarged. These are the con
ditions that are urging the river i'm
provement be made before the wa
ter falls to such an extent the worl
cannot oe performed. and these fact
will be placed before the govern
ment engineers by the Commercia
club committee which reached Port
land this morning.

KANSAS CITY, April 10.-There
was an unexpected turn in the Sun
day observance theater cases yester-
day, when Judge Wallace of the
criminal court admitted there was
no evidence to convict the 1000 ac-
tors indicted during the past six
months. After long delay some of
the cases have come to trial.
In the other cases Judge Wallace
refused to grant a change of venue
to Judge Porterfield, whom the state
supreme court recently declared
could try the cases, for the reason
that there was no evidence to con-
vict If the cases were brought to
trial.
Notwithstanding the admission OF
the court, Judge Wallace declined tc
grant a change of venue, but told
the attorneys the defendants must
appear in court or forfeit their
bonds.
The supreme court will be ap'
realed to compel Judge Wallace to
transfer all the theater cases tt
Judge Porterfield's division OF the
court.
