WITH THE LAWMAKERS
OF THE SlXTlETH CONGRESS
Considering the Naval Bill.

Nearly all of the session of the Senate
yesterday afternoon was spent in con-
sidering the naval appropriation bill.
Senator La Toilette Of Wisconsin delayed
matters by asking questions about almost
every new item in the bill and insisting
that 1t be explained in great detail. He
was aided by Senator Cummins of Iowa
and some of the democratic senators.
Over an hour was consumed in discuss
ing a provision to allow the Secretary OF
the Navy to appoint per diem employees
and pay for them out of lump sum-
Then the question Of the purchase OF pow
der came up and the House provision that
in restraint Of trade. except In an emer-
gency, was ridiculed by the democrats on
the ground that the only place powder
could be bought was from the so-calleo
du Pont powder works Senator Hale
chairman Of the naval committee. admit
ted this was true.
Senator Dixon Of Montana was respon-
sible for stirring up more trouble when
the appropriation for navy yards was
reached. He referred to magazine arti-
cles charging poor methods in the con-
troll Of yards and stating that ten or
twelve members of the naval committee
of the Senate had yards in their states
Senator Clapp of Minnesota declared that
1t was time to cease protesting against
big appropriations and do something to
stop them. He believed the naval ap-
preparations had always been cafefuily
considered. Mr.. Hale said in fourteen
years England had spent nearly $1o7oO
600 on its navy yards. while this country
had spent only $51, 100000.
Senator Hale threatened a night ses-
sion unless the naval bill was passed
today.

The Rivers and Harbors Bill.

The rivers and h4rbors subcommittee
yesterday completed its consideration OF
the emergency measure, carrying $40 900,
900, which 1t will report to the House to-
morrow.
The bill will provide for the purchase

err plants operating along the st. Mary's

Col. Goethals Supports Lock Canal.
Col. Goethals, chief engineer of the
Panama canal, was before the House ap-
preparations committee yesterday. He
said that lock type of canal would cost
approximately 1910. 100000. and sea-level
canal considerably in excess Of $500, 900,
900. In both estimates he included the
sum of $4O.OOO.OO paid for the French
rights on the isthmus, as well as the in
terest on the investment.
With the present rate of progress. Col.
Goethals predicted. in case the govern
ment proceeded with the lock type of
waterway, the canal would be opened for
operation by January 1, 1915.
If a sea-level waterway were under
taken he said. it would be impossible to
send vessels from ocean to ocean across

to enable the government to continue work
on the canal in the fiscal year 1910, be-
ginning July ! next.

Came Near Smashing Precedents.

The Senate learned yesterday that 1t
had recently undergone so narrow an es-
cape from breaking all precedents and
extending the floor privilege of the august
chamber to two women that many OF the
Older members actually gasped and there
was great demand on the little pages for
ice water. 1t appears that the House
passed a joint resolution extending the
thanks and appreciation OF Congress to
Mrs. Russell Sage and Miss Anna Bart
lett Warner for the gift Of Constitution
Island, which is to be added to the West
Point military reservation. The adop-
ton of this language. it appears. would
have carried with it an extension of the
floor privilege of both houses to the
women named.
The discovery of this fact was. singular
ly enuogh. made by the woman. Mrs.
Leona Wells, one of the clerks of the
committee On military affairs. The sem
ator in charge Of the bill admits that he
experienced a cold chill when he realized
the terrible peril in which the Senate
precedents had been placed. but he i'm
mediately remedied the situation by hav-
ing the word thanks changed to graft

THAT RESOLUTION AGAIN.

Our old friend, the Aberdeen World,
which. outside of campaign times,
seems to be able to "speak right out IN
meetin' does not take the hOlier-than-
thou state senate at it's own valuation,
and gets rude enough to say some
thing every day or two about that Pol
son resolution-the resolution which
provided for an investigation OF state
affairs and which was Indignantly
voted down by the senate and later ex-
plunged from the records.
For instance, this newspaper can
easily say me too" to the following
comment made by the Gray's Harbor
journal:
1T is really to be hoped that this
Olympia correspondent who sizes up
The present Legislature as one with an
ear to the ground and more than or
dinarily susceptible to the wishes and
demands of the people, knows his sub
ject. But we fear that he doesn't. If
he does. then the reason for the refusal
of the state senate to order an inves-
tigation. either at the time of the in
PRODUCTION of the Poison resolution, or
now, remains an inexplicable mystery.
If there is any one thing the people OF
this state want-as is evidenced by
newspaper comment throughout the
state-it is knowledge of. the conduct
Of some of its state officers. One ques-
ton raised by the author Of that reso-
luton at the time of is Introduction
is a Question that has been and, is be-
ing asked by citizens in every section
of tfa State-'can one rascal faint the
whole court. 1t seems that the ear is
not a close to the rails of the popular
sentiment track as it might be. If it
were closer it could scarcely fail to
hear the rumble of an insistent de-
mand that this proposed investigation
be had. and all the rumors that have
been in circulation these months past,
be cleared away"

WHERE WILL 1T END?

A crisis is about due in the liquor
question. The anti saloon bill has
passed the house, but seems to be Sc
this condition of affairs has brought
serious threats from those who are in
favor of the county local option bill.
a.' Yesterday, the Spokesman Review
gave advice to the following:
1.-The lengths to which misguided men
will go in battling for boose passes
understanding. .,.s.
"Embittered whisky champions in
the house at Olympia have served no
tice on focal option members that they
have perfected a hard and fast COM
binatiOn for voting as a unit against
all measures championed by the local
optionists.
"A pretty spirit, that, to parade be-
fore an intelligent constituency, and
in such a cause, Misappled zeal could
hardly be carried to greater heights
of unreason or lower depths of bit
terness.
IF statewide prohibition is what
these members want, they can have it
by keeping up their present tactics
Last Weeh' lHe Sedtlle tepuDllcdl
quoted Senator d. H. Cox, of this coun-
ty, along similar lines.
County local option now or state
wide prohibition two years hence" was
the threat embodied in the interview
of the Walla Walla senator, who said:
IF the Legislature refuses to pass
a wholesome and effective local option
law then those who favor the passage
of a local option law should insist on
no law at all being enacted rather than
to have one that means nothing and
does still less.
Il am not exactly advocating prohi-
bition for the state of Washington,
but it looks to me that it will either
be county local option now or, prohi-
bition two years from now"

Of the play itself, for powerful as the
comedy evolved by Jerrold Sheppard
undoubtedly is, from first to last, Mr..
Sully always dominates it, carried the
audience with him, made it laugh when
he laughed and feel serious when he
did. In his portrayal of Father Daily"
the pastor, one could understand how
the hearts of the men in 1.-THE Match

in the brief time of the action, for Mr..
Scully was priest with a personality
that made itself felt by those who fol-
lowed him through the three delightful
acts. He is an actor.
Unlike some others, Daniel Sully did
not find it necessary to surround him

company is one of the best seen here
