Senate Committee Here

The special train which bro't the Senate irrigation committee to Yuma arrived at 5;3O o'clock Sunday morning, coming from the Imperial valley, where the party had spent the preceding day. at
 The committee was made up of Senator Thomas H. Garter of Montana, chairman; Senators Warren of Wyoming and Jones of Washington. Accompanying the committee were F.H. Newell, director of the reclamation ser vice, and l.. C. Hill, supervising engineer for the southern divis- ion. The distinguished visitors were met here by Governor Sloan and B. w. Zachau, secre- tary to Delegate Ralph Cameron. A reception committee, consist. ing of Project Engineer Sellew, Assistant Engineer Lawson, J. $. Garvin and R. G. Stitt, presi- dent and secretary respectively 
 of the Water Users Association; President c. D. Baker of the Commercial Club, and a number of Yuma citizens met the train and the visitors, when the latter awakened.
 At 8 o'clock trip was made to Laguna dam and a couple of hours we're spent in showing the great work of the government at that point. The senators seemed much impressed with the quality of the work done and the im- mensity of the project. Return ing from the dam they viewed the river and surrounding coun try from the Fort Yuma hill, and were shown the site for the projected new bridge across the Colorado. On the Arizona side of the river they were met by automobiles and taken for a tour of the town and the mesa, enjoy ing @ drive, also, through the orange groves. In the afternoon a second automobile trip gave the visitors view of the valley as far south as the Mexican line, stops being made ct Nichols hall and Somerton to afford the farm CTS of the valley an opportunity to meet the senators. A confer ence was held at : o'clock Sun day evening by the committee with the board of governors of the Water Users Association, after which public reception was held, and here the visitors delivered short addresses, intro auctions being made by District Attorney Timmons. The senti- ment expressed unanimously by the members of the committee was that funds would be provid- ed during the winter to finish, not only the Yuma project, but all of the twenty-three others under way. Senator Garter ex- pressed himself here as he has elsewhere, as favoring a warrant issue for the purpose of raising the necessary money.
 Following the departure of No. 10 Sunday evening the sen atorial special pulled out at 9:35, Governor Sloan being aboard and accompanying the party to Phoenix, where q visit was made by the committee on Monday.

paratiyely small sum Of money would
probably insure the program with
reasonable assistance from the A. &
G Railroad Company and from the
new electric railroad company.
We recommend that the advertis.
ing and promotion work be carried
on through the coming year on ah
increased scale over last year The
seed have been planted and II would
be but the part Of prudence and
economy to reap where we have sown,
We recommend that in any future
advertising that a strong feature be
made for the unexcelled advantages
along The lower banks Of the coium-
bia for sawmili enterprises. Perhaps
the most effective advertising OF this
section at this time can be done in
this direction
We appreciate the cordial support
given us by the citizens and the com.
munity generally and assure them we
believe the near future of Astoria is
to be very satisfactory.
We point out that the Hartman
system road, being constructed by
Mr., Lytle, is completed to the ~
mile post from Hillsboro, and the
line which Is surveyed into Astoria
from Jewell, will probably be COM
oletcd next year, connecting with the
criminal grounds which the Hartman .
interests have purchased just on the
vest side Of Young's Bay. The track
IN this Lytle road has also been laid
en- miles out this way from 1'iila-
nook and work has gone forward all
winter especially in the tunnels.
Thus It would seem that much Is be-
ng done by outside agencies towards
working out the destiny Of Astoria.
In this connection we wish to call !
our attention to the fact that the :
rays Harbor and Columbia River !
Sailroad Company has declared its i
itentions in suits brought to con. !
emn the right-of-way, Of building a 3
ailway from Kalama West on the i
Torth Bank Of the Columbia to the a
aci6c Ocean, with a branch from {
ome point on the main line in
ortherly direction, to terminal
pint hereafter TO be designated on
rays Harbor This shows that the I I
orth Bank road Is soon to have port !.
eilities almost directly across on the !
'rth shore Of the Columbia from ! !
