Seattle, April 15.-Having spent
500, 100000 in completing it's trans
continental line the Milwaukee rail-
way is now willing to make a fight
for feeder territory, and last evening
dispatched Assistant Chief Engineer
Kyle to the Flathead country, Mon
tana, to push its survey into that re-
gion
The spotlight of railroad activity
is now thrown on the rich territory
north of Missoula, abounjing with
natural resources and as yet but lit
tie developed. For some time the
district, now an Indian reservation,
has been the scene of numerous sur
vey parties, the work being carried
on with the secrecy so essential to
a railroad in securing vantage points
With the Hill lines and the Milwau-
kee all having parties in the field,
the activity of each became more
pronounced, and as a result haste
has been a feature of the opposing
forces in this field work.
The sending of Mr.. Kyle from
here is taken by railroad men to
mean that the Milwaukee will not
lose much time in completing it's
survey and beginning actual wor,-
in the construction of branch line.
Into the Big Bend.
This is not the only place where
Hill and Earling lines are competing
for territory. The announcement by
Mr.. Elliott of the construction of
line to connect the Washington Cen
trail with the Northern Pacific at
Pasco, thereby giving a direct line to
the water level haul of the Spokane,
Portland & Seattle and passing
through the Moses Lake Country
from the Big Bend, has stirred the
Milwaukee officials Surveyors are
in the field for a line to be construct
ed from near the Columbia river
west of the Moses lake country and
tapping the Big Bend country.
1t is also definitely settled now
that the Milwaukee will build direct
into Hanford, on the west side of
the Columbia river, and may in the
near future formally announce it's
intention of reaching the Yakima val
ley.
The most important movement,
however, adopted SO far by the Mil
waukee is the dispatching of Mr..
Kyle to the Flathead country, for
all field surveys have been left to
the field surveyors heretofore, Chief
Engineer Pearson and Mr.. Kyle de-
Gliding on them after completion.

House Committee on Merchant Ma

Consideration, But MIR. RooseVef
Couldn't Wait.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-Presiden'
Roosevelt today forwarded a message
to congress, urging a bill requiring
that ocean passenger ships be equipped
with wireless teIegraphy. He directs
attention to recent events where the
value of the wireless in saving human
life was demonstrated and urges thai
congress, before adjournment, pass
law requiring ocean-going steamships
carrying considerable numbers OF pas
sengers to install the system of radio
telegraphy. The Presidents message
follows:
Your attention is invited to recent
events which have conclusively dem
onstrated the great value of radio
telegraphy. popularity known as wire
less telegraphy, as an instrumentality
for the preservation Of life at sea
While the honor OF the first practical
application of the scientific principles
involved may belong to another coun-
try, it is gratifying to know that our
inventors have been quick to seize
upon and develop the idea and that
several system of approval scientific
merit and commercial practicability
have been put into operation.
Furthermore, through the liberality
of congress and the intelligence, and
industry of the navy department, our
Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts are
equipped with a chain of shore sta.
lions designed primarily for the ma
tional defense, but capable of receiv-
ing and transmitting messages by any
of the systems of wireless telegraphy
now in use. Even our distant insulaI
territories and Alaska are SO equipped.
so far as our own country is con
cerned, steps have thus been taken
effectually to prevent the establish
ment of monopoly in the practical
use of the new applied art.
Il deem it highly desirable that the
before adjournment, should
enact law requiring within reason
able limitations as determined by what
he government of the United States |
has already done, and by what pru |
lent and progressive ship owners have
already found practicable, that all |
)cean-going steamships, carrying con.
siderable numbers of passengers on |
'outes where wireless installations |
would be useful should be required to |

The subject is now under considera

hat legislation to effect the same gen.
raj purpose is also under considera,

Our interest in it's enactment is
zen ON account of the great mum
er of steerage, as we'll as cabin pas

MANSFIELD CORROBORAfES
"Verbiage" Embossed a Lot OF AK
About a Deal Between State
Widers And Republicans, And Got
Called.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Feb. 1O.-Rls-
ing to a question of personal privilege
lust before the adjournment OF the sen
ate Tuesday, Senator Holiday, In en-
phatic language denounced the state
ment made by Representative Bur
bage on Monday night, at the JOINT
meeting of the house and senate com
mittees on elections, to the effect that
the statewide democrats of the legis-
lature had pledged themselves to sup
port election measures for the benent
of the republicans.
Senator Holiday did not mince
words and spoke very earnestly. In
part he said:
The change made by Mr.. 'Verbiage
or Burbage, or whatever his name IS,
that the statewide democrats OF this
legislature agreed to support republi-
can election bills is without founda-
ton and is absolutely false. Nor did
the republicans who supported the
statewide prohibition bills ask the
statewide democrats to do such
thing"
Continuing, Senator Holiday said
that the statewide democrats were
responsible for the killing of the only
election bills that had ben introduced
by statewide republicans. He closed
by again emphatically denouncing
Representative Burbage's statement
as being false.
Senator Mansfield corroborated Sen
ator Holiday, saying that Mr.. Bur
bages charges were false in so far as
he (Mr Mansfield) was concerned,
and in so far as he knew anything
whatever about the matter.
Governor Patterson sent In a spe-
cial message urging immediate action
on the part of the general assembly
upon the bill providing for the leasing
of the convicts at the main prison.
The senate spent some time in the
discussion Of Senator Hord's resolu-
ton limiting the membership of the
iunketing committees and limiting the .
time they are to occupy in their in {
vestigations. The resolution. with a
number of amendments, was finally
tabled.
Only two measures of a general
character were introduced in the SEN
ate The first of these is bill in
by Senator Thomas, by re-
which seeks to amend the
antitrust law of 1903 so as to give
grand juries the power to send for
books, papers and witnesses. The
second is a measure by Senator As
Kew, which proposes to regulate con-
racts between employer and employee
so as to provide that 1t shall not be

Communication.

The Comments In the Herald few
tiUn of the archi'ecL by the West
Reynoldsville school board for the work
on their proposed school building, was,
M doubt. made without any knowledge
OF the true state OF affairs, or the writer
must have been one OF those who, when
they have a few dollars to spend for the
appearance Of the town, would prefer
to give 1t to some foreigner rather than
stimulate home industry, and then
wax the streets and howl poverty"
II is an undisputed fact that there
were plans submitted to the West
Reynoldsville school board by home
talent for their new school building
that we're superior, complied with all
state laws, and we're acknowledge to
meet the requirements Of the board,
and no real justification can be shown
for the action In engaging a foreign
architect.
The writer does not question the
right OF the school board to engage
foreign architect, only the real prln-
clpal of such action does not show
interest by the school board In the
welfare Of the town Such action,
practiced by others as well, is one OF
the real causes OF our town being In
the state OF poverty that it is. II the
citizens will take notice, people from
other towns do not come here to
patronize any business OF any descrip-
tion within the limits OF our town, but
there are always people with loose
scruples Tor without any at ally who
get themselves into positions where
discretion should be the better part
OF valor, but the trust is betrayed for
for the sake Of some personal advantage
they might gain. A CITIZEN.
