is an exhaustive one, deals with every

In It Col. Goethals handles without
gloves those critics who he says are
predicting nothing but disaster and
failure to the enterprise.
Reviews Whole History.
Col. Goethals reviews the whole
history of proposed canal construc
ton on the isthmus, and calls atten
tion to the fact that after the subject
had occupied public attention for up
ward OF four centuries, it was not tin
I'll the nineteenth century that any
definite action was taken looking to
ward its accomplishment. THE Unit
ed States" he says, mot unmindful
OF the advantages OF an isthmian
canal, had from time to time made
Investigations and surveys of the vari
Gus routes" He adds that with the
view to government ownership and
control, congress directed an investi
CATION of the Nlcaraguan canal for
which a concession had been granted
TO q private company. The report OF
the commission TO look into the sub.
3ect was adverse to the NicaraguaG
route, he says, and favorable to the
Panama route and the lock type OF
canal.
The Gatun Dam.
Much attention is given to the sub.
feet OF the Gatun dam. This, Col
Goethals says, is to consist OF two
piles Of rock 1900 feet apart and car.
rid up to so feet above mean tide.
The space between them and up to
the required heighth is to be filled
by selected material deposited in
place by hydraulic process.
Lock Canal Cheaper.
On the subject of the estimated
cost OF lock and sea level canal,
Col. Goethals says: "The estimated
cost by the present commission for
completing the adopted project, ex.
cluding the items let out by the board
Of consulting engineers, is placed at
y297.766, 900. II to this be added the
estimated cost OF sanitation and civil
government until the completion OF
the work, and the $5O000,000 pur.
chase price, the total cost to the
United States of the lock type Of
canal will amount to S375, POI, 900. In
the preparation OF these estimates
there are no unknown factors. The
cost of the sea level canal for con.
struction alone sums up to SAT- sol,
900, and II to this be added the cost
Of sanitation and civil government up
10 the time OF the completion of the
canal, which will be at least six years
later than the lock canal, and the
purchase price, the total cost to the
United States will aggregate s563,.

OREGON Is FIRST.
First to Complete State Building and
First TO Install Exhibit.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 23.-Oregon
was the first state to complete its
building and the first to install ex-
hibits at the Alaska Pacific ex-
position. Five months in advance OF
the opening of the exposition Oregon
had two cars of choice apples and a
car of forest products stored in its
building and the entire exhibit will be
installed two months before the gates
of the exposition are opened.
The oregon building is a handsome
structure and occupies one of the best
locations on the exposition grounds. 1t
is just off the central court and over
looks Lake Washington. The build
ing was completed in November and
since that time the Oregon commis-
sion has been engaged in the assem-
bling of the state exhibit.
BY the early completion of its
building Oregon has received a large
share of the exposition during the
pre-exposition period. In the past
three months more than $4,000 per-
sons have paid admission TO the expo
sition grounds.

SHIP SEED WHEAT TO
GRAND RONDE VALLEY

Union, Ore. Jan. 23-The Touring
mill Of this city advises they have
grain enough stored to run them un-
til April 1.
Most all grain has been sold by the
farmers and It will probably be ne
cessary to have seed wheat shipped in.
Mill feed prices are the highest known
for years in the Grand Ronde valley
and barley is now being shipped in
from other territory. Farmers in this
section did not raise enough grain to
meet the local demand, due to the
fact that ground usually seeded to
wheat was pastured the last year, on
account of the late spring. Fall wheat
is now very promising and has been
benefited by the late SHOWS. There is
plenty Of hay in the valley and farm
ers are shipping carload shipments
daily.
