The County Board met on Tuesday
as a board of canvassers OF the re-
turns from the Primary Election. But
few errors were found in footings,
so that only few slight changes were
made in results for those given last
week. Somebody In Sharon township
cast a Socialist ballot, the only one
voted in the county; the only two pro.
hibition ballots were cast In Lincoln
township. Miss Stearns was nominal
ed on three tickets and Geo. h. Kel-
logg on two, and each will be COMPEL
ed to make choice OF party ticket
and direct the Auditor on which the
name shall be placed at the election in
November. There we're many ties on
township offices and delegates. The
matter was determined by lot under
direction of the board. An abstract
of the official vote will be given next
week.

The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1908-03-05

WASHINGTON, March 4 - Cur
fency legislation was the subject oI
consideration in the Senate today
Hepburn opposed the Aldrich bill
and declared il useless and said he
would not vote for il. Hepburn laid
great stress upon what he declared
was the wrong principle Of allowing
security to be used as basis for cir.
culation. He declared that only the
bonds that have a taxing power
back Of them should be used for that
purpose. The passage OF the bill
now, he said, was like giving a man
medicine after he had recovered from
his illness. He said the so-called
panic was only nightmare and IL the
tnanciers are given TO understand
that they cannot depend upon govern.
mcnt assistance in such cases they
would be more apt TO conduct their
affairs on a sound basis and thus pre-
vent panics. He took the ground that
the result Of the bill might be to sup.
plant the present currency with emer-
gency bills, as bills. once in circula.
lion could not be called back readily.
Hepburn said he never felt his
breast swell with gratitude toward the
in New York who had been
given credit for saving the situation.
Perkins spoke at length in favor Of
he bill Bailey stated he would speak
IN the currency bill Monday and
oepew viii speak on Friday Aldrich
announced he hoped to have vote
IN the measure next Wednesday. The
senate adjourned after listening to |
ddresses on the bill to increase the |
'ay Of the army.

WASHINGTON, March a. The
postofice appropriation bill was
technically under consideration in the

cupied the whole time Of the session.
Sims spoke in favor of the Burleson
bill to abolish dealings in cotton
futures. Chaney and Lindberg talked
on the financial questions. Hitchcock
pleaded for placing on the free list

DIGGING THE DITCH.

WASHINGTON, Mar, Alp to
March |, 2S,414,o34 cubic yards Of
excavation had been taken from the
Panama Canal route. This is just
one fifth of the entire amount thar
was estimated May |, 1904, that would
be required to be excavated to com
plete the waterway, viz: 142,0OO,0OO
cubic yards in round numbers Should
the work proceed at the present rate,
1t is estimated the remaining excava-
ton would be completed in three
years.
However, it Is thought the work Of
excavation will not be pushed to COM
pletion, but that meanwhile constru-
ction Of the locks will proceed, the
intention Of the commission being to
finish all parts Of the canal construc-
ton at about the same time.
Notwithstanding that there were
t~o less working days in February
than in January, the amount Of ex-
cavation on the canal was 1882
cubic yards greater, the total excava-
ton for February being 2645,S80
cubic yards.

Denver Hotel Men Pledged Not
to Raise Rates.
THAT ERRONEOUS STATEMENT
The Contributions Of the Hotelmen
Were insignificant Compared by
What Was Given by Other Inter-
ests-No Extortion Of Amy Kind.

| DENVER, Colo, March An. L
Scholtz, president Of the Chamber o
Commerce, issued a statement today
in which he made clear the fact thai
Denver hotel men we're pledged not
10 raise rates during the meeting o.
the Democratic National Convention
There has been printed in many
newspapers an erroneous statement
to the effect that Denver hotel men
paid a large share OF the $l0000C
raised here to help defray the ex-
penses of the national democratic
convention and that they intend to
make it back by raising rates. said
Mr.. Scholtz. "As a matter of fact,
the Contributions Of the hotel men
were insignificant compared with
what was given BY other interests,
The hotel men are pladged in writing
not 10 raise their rates beyond what
is charged for meals and rooms at
ordinary times and there will be no
just ground for complaint on the
part of any one who comes here to at
tend the national democratic conven-
ton. There is no truth in the asser-
tion that rates will be raised here
during the convention and that state
ment is made to set at rest any un-
casiness8that may have been caused
by such misleading statements"
w. F. R. Mills, secretary of the
