State Highway Commission Says That
the Use of Dynamite on the Concrete
Piers Has Shortened Structure's Life
---Great Disappointment to Residents
of Wenatchee.

The state highway commission has
reported against the purchase Of the
Columbia river bridge at Wenatchee
on account of the structural defects
in the bridge This news comes as
a great disappointment to the resi-
dents of Wenatchee, who had hoped
to see a free bridge across the Col
umbia river at this place. Some few
weeks ago the state highway COM
mission, accompanied by engineers,
were here for the purpose of making
physical examination of the struc-
ture They reported that the use of
dynamite on the concrete piers Of the
structure for the purpose of fasten
ing certain bolts and braces has
greatly shortened the length of the
duration of the structure. The COM
mission was here some two weeks
ago but until last night had not
given out any information as to it's
recommendation to Governor Hay.
The report has come as a great dis
appointment to Wenatchee. 1t is

thought that the report of the COM
mission has been Influenced to a
great measure by political motives
rather than to the merits or demerits
of theNWenatchee bridge.
1t was reported that possible con-
fict >between the terms of the bill
providing for the purchase and the
state constitution might result in a
recommendation against the pur-
chase
The attorney general is of the opin-
ion that there is no legal bar to the
purchase, but structural defect in
fluenced the highway commission to
report to Governor Hay against the
purchase.
The bill providing for the pur-
chase by the state of the Wenatchee
bridge did not carry with it any pro-
vision for an examination by the
state. highway commission and it is
not known to what extent the report
of the commission will influence Gov
ernor Hay in taking over this struc-
tura>for the state.

WHICH IS NOW TRYING TO
DOMINATE GOVERNMENT.

Spokane, Aug. 1O.-Gifford Pin

with the National Irrigation Con-
gress today when 1900 delegates in
the big armory gave him an ovation
lasting fully five minutes and end
ing in three cheers.
Pinchot went Immediately into his
subject. T. ]. Allen, of the forestry
service, who preceded Pinchot, de-
manded that if the west is to pre-
serve forests there must be state laws
and men to enforce them.
PinchOt declared that a water DOW
er trust is in formation and that fits
attorneys will appear before the con-
gress and thus try to break down the
last remaining opposition to the own
ership of all the power in the cOun-
try. He said that the country should
pay tribute to the Roosevelt policies
and storms of applause greeted his
declaration that the Taft admins
tration would carry out these. poll
cies.
A resolution was passed offered by
Washington delegate memorable
ing congress to change the home
stead laws wherein settlers under
government irrigation works need
not make actual residence on the
land until water is available for irrl-
cation purposes
The Pinchot address and that of
head of reclamation service Newell
appear on another page of the Daily
World.
The appointment of former Gov.
George c. Pardee to the chairman
ship of the committee on resolutions
today is regarded as the first victory
o fthe friends of reclamation and for

to be unalterably opposed to the So
called water power trust.

TALKS Of WENAT-
CHEE'S FUTURE. .
DAVID II. McGINNIS, SAYS CITY
WILL REACH 10000 MARK IN
COMMANDING LOCATION.

David r. McGinnis, formerly gen.
eral immigration agent of the Great
Northern railroad, and the prede-
cessor of Max Bass, is in the city to-
day and in discussing the growth of
Wenatchee says that the 10000 mark
will be reached within six years
II have no doubt but that in few
years the entire flat of which Wenat-
chez now occupies a part, will be
needed for the city of the future.
THE growth of these western
towns is simply marvellous" said Mr..
McGinnis. Few people appreciate
the great numbers of the people OF
the east who are barking to the call
of the west. Then the entire country
is doubling in population every thirty
years. Adding to this the fact that
Wenatchee is situated in such a COM
manding location forces the conclu-
sion that there is an enormous
growth and development slated FOR
the country around and this neces-
sarily means that the city itself must
double twice within the next six
years. The city of Kalispel, where
have been for the past few weeks, is
making enormous strides at the pres
ent time. Other cities in Montana
are doing the same. The same is true
of the cities of Washington.
''It still retain the opinion formed
years ago that the entire flat about
Wenatchee will be required for the
city"
Mr.. McGinnis is here for the pnr-
pose of installing pumping plant on
his property at Brays. He expects to
leave today for Spokane to attend the
irrigation congress. He will return
Saturday.

INTERESTING CAPT.
TAI IN IRRIGATION
f. NJ. ELLIOTT, PROMOTING IRRI-
CATION ENTERPRISE EAST OF
COLUMBIA RIVER, HAD CON-
FERENCE YESTERDAY.

E. M. Elliott, who is promoting the
enterprise for the irrigation of TO-
900 acres of East Wenatchee land,
in a telephone message to the Daily
World this morning from Spokane.
stated that he had had a conference
with Chicago capitalists yesterday in
Spokane and that he believes that
there is no question but what capital
can be interested in that project ana
he deems it but a comparatively
short time before work can be start
cd.
Mr.. Elliott on going to Spokane
took with him few Wenatchee and
Methow valley apples and these are
creating quite sensation there. The
Great Northern depot, commercial
club of Spokane and Spokane hotel
were all bidders for the privilege Of
having these apples displayed in
their places. To the delegates, es-
pecially from the southwest, the
northern apples were a revelation
and they could scarcely believe that
they were grown last year but con
sidered them an early variety of this
years growth. Mr.. Elliott states
that he will bring back with him from
the congress quite number of peO-
pie who have seen the advertisements
of the Methow valley lands in the
Daily World, AMI these men are plan
ming a trip to the MethOw - in

COUNTY CORONER BROUGHT IN
BILL TO COMMISSIONERS FOR
AN INQUEST WHICH HE DID
NOT HOLD ON A "FLOATER."

DR.. Saunders, coroner of Chelan
county, is somewhat of josher, any
way it is supposed that a recent bill
which he submitted for payment to
the board of county commissioners
was intended as a josh. The bill
was for s12.4O, $40 for holding the
inquest and $24O for mileage. The
bill was for trip which he made
about two weeks ago to Cashmere.
He was informed by citizens of Cash
mere and also by the train crew that
a "fioater'' had been seen in the
Wenatchee river Dr. Saunders made
the trip up towards Cashmere and
located what he supposed was the
f1oater lodged in between two rocks
in the river A raft was built and
DR.. Saunders and his assistants were
propelled into the river to the rock.
What they had supposed was the
body of man proved to be only
white rock. The coroner exerted
himself as much on this trip as he
did in the holding of an ordinary in
quest and he brought in a bill for 1t
to the amount OF an inquest. The
commissioners could not see it his
way, however, and cut out the item
OF $40 for holding the inquest and
allowed him the s2.40 mileage.

PROGRESS ON DE-
POT BUILDING
TWENTY MEN EMPLOYED-G. N.
TRACKS WILL BE RAISED TWO
FEET-S5O FEET OF BRICK
SIDEWALK TO BE LAID.

Very substantial progress is being
made on the new Great Northern
depot at the foot of Kittitas street.
c. l.. Johnson is in charge of the
work for the contractors, Libby &
Nelson Brick work was started last
week and the brick are the Minnesota
vitrified and make very handsome
appearance. The water tables are of
Minnesota sand stone and have also
been laid. This was slow and diff
cult work and from now on the pro-
gress will be more noticeable.
But few people realize the i'm
provements that are being made by
the Great Northern at this place. In
connection with the building of the
depot the main tracks are to be raised
some two feet and gravel is now be-
ing hauled in for ballasting from
Trinidad. The idea is to make the
track conform to the depot platform,
which at present is some two feet
higher than the tracks. There will
be two main tracks in front Of the
depot and already work has been
started on the placing of the COM
mercial track west of the depot. This
is to be used for freight purposes.
North and south of the new depot
will be $50 feet of brick sidewalking,
400 feet north and $50 feet south.
The idea in this is that passengers
may step off from any portion of the
train onto a fine pavement The de-
pot being ZIG feet in length it will
give S66 feet of pavement.
The subway under the track at the
foot of Kittitas has already been
staked out and this work will be in
progress in a very short time. Fore
man johnson has about 20 men en-
ployed on the depot work and is
rushing it just as fast as possible.
