Paris. Oct. 23.-The feeling in
government circles IL distinctly nerv-
ous with regard to the situation in

Advices are that the Turkish gov-
ernment is impatient because Full
garia has failed to present an official

Of Emperor Ferdinand. while from
Scotia comes informfsion thar the

Walla Walla, Oct. 23.-A merger
of all companies and corporations in
terested in the open river movement,
including the Open River association

Traction company, may be brought
meeting being held in Walla Walla
this afternoon, says the Bulletin.
This information was semi-offlcially
given out by a stockhOlder this
morning the man, however, refus-
ing to allow his name to be used.
Stockholders of the Walla Walla
and Columbia River Traction COM
pany. together with prominent cap
italsts and business men from the
Sound cities, are in Walla Walla at
tending this meeting, which is be-
ing held in DR.. Blocks ONCE.
The report Of the committe in
charge Of the boats now in cOnstruc-
tion for use on the upper Columbia
river will be heard, while other mat
ters pertaining to the construction
OF the electric line between Walla
Wa'la and the Columbia river will
be discussed. Several parties inter
ested in the boats now running on
the river were present. and 1t is not
at all unlikely that preliminary steps
will be taken looking toward the
consolidation OF all these interests,
which would be affected by the fur
ther development Of the open river
movement. 1t is understood that
several men in attendance at this ses-
sion are heartily in favor OF such a
merger and are working hard to
bring it about.

SEN. HEPBURN
ADDRESSES CLUB
GIVES STATUS OF JALLES-CELI-
10 IMPROVEMENT AND URGES
COOPERATION BETWEEN CIT.
1zENs AND GOVERNMENT.

Senator w, B. Hepburn met today
with the open river committee Of the
commercial club and explained to the
committee the policy Of the govern
ment relative to the public water
ways and the condition Of the i'm
prove ment work now being carried on
at Cello.
Senator Hepburn explained that the
contract under which the Gallo canal
is being constructed provides for
continuance Of the work until COM
pleted and the last report received
from. the engineers suggests that
more than one-half Of the excavation
work is now completed and the en-
tire contract should be finished with
in three years. Mr.. Hepburn suggest
ed that the best plan for the Lewis
ton people was to cooperate with the
government in its efforts to improve
the public waterways and suggested
that the plans now provided for
continuance of all features of the
open river work until the independ-
ent boats are plying regularly be-
tween Portland and the head of navi-
cation at Lewiston.
In speaking of the Clearwater riv-
er and its tributaries, Senator Hey
burn stated he would not be opposed
to a plan to dam the tributaries of
the stream but had never had such
plans presented to him. He said he
would be opposed to having dam
constructed across the main river un-
less that dam provided passage for
boats and RATS so that navigation
would not be embarrassed. He be-
lieved that dam without locks
would be only Of a local benefit and
not to the best interests of the peo-
pie at large or to the fture genera
ton. Mr.. Hepburn explained that
laws were in effect now that provid-
ed for the construction of dam
across navigable rivers where the
locks were installed under the direc-
ton Of government engineers and
that such a movement on the part OF
central Idaho would not be generally
opposed

(Signed)
(SeaD Emily l.. Savidge,
City Clerk.
An increase of $4,000 in the ex-
pense of city government. shown dur
ing AleXander's first term. might pos
sibly be explained on the ground that
the cost of a growing city is neces-
sarily larger each added year but 1t
nevertheless would be apparent that
he was not as considerate Of the
municipalities finances as he might
have been. for under his successor
the expenses of government was only
increased by about one-half the
amount. Giving him the benefit OF
reasons for an increase in the first
instance, there can be none for that
of nearly $4,000 during his second
tncumbency Rank extravaganza in
the conduct Of the citys affairs is
the only explanation. A man with
such an official record Is the last who
should pose as the champion Of re-
form In the matter OF public expen-
ditures. An increase OF nearly one
half in the expenses II a city within
the short time Of two years, Is some
thing which can not be satisfa actOrily
|excused to taxpayers and will not in
,vite repetition in state affairs.
