Taft Reluctantly Signs Riv-
ers and harbors Bill.
MESSAGE TO THE SENATE

President Declares in Communication
That He Will Never Again Approve
Any Measure Drawn Along Same
Lines-ReIieves the improvements
Should Be Made In Accord With
Practical System.
Washington, June 27.-Encouraged
by the fact that President Taft signed
the rivers and harbors bill both
branches of congress worked with fe-
verish haste to finish up all important
pending legislation and reach final
adjournment of the session.
The senate unanimously agreed to
vote on the Appalachian and White
mountain forest reserve bill Feb. IL
next
The presidents consent to the riv.
ers and harbors bill was given re.
luctantly and he said in a message
sent to the senate he could never
again approve any measure along the
same lines.
The president believes that these
improvements should be made in &C.
cord with an approved system of wa.
terways and not in haphazard fashion
for the benefit of local communities.
President Taft also sent message
to congress urging the appropriation
of suitable sum for use by the prest-
dent in his discretion to prevent So
rious flood damages which is threat
ened in the Imperial valley district OF
California by the high water in the
Colorado river.
Recommendation Is Approved.
Immediately after the reading of
the presidents message on the Colo
RADIO river the senate adopted joint
resolution appropriating $1,O0O,0 900 for
protection against damage by that
stream.
Senator Gore presented to the SEN
ate resolution providing for an in
vestigation of the employment of p1l.
vate counsel in connection with the
sale of lands belonging to the Chicka.
saw and Choctaw tribes of Indians. It
was agreed to by the senate.
Senator Cores charges in conneo-
ton with the Indian affairs in Okla
homa are not confined to those made
against J. F. McMurray, an Oklahoma
lawyer.
When the senator made his appear
ance in the senate he said in pri.
vate conversation that another attor-
ney had been making efforts to have
about 10000 negroes enrolled, which,
he said, would net the promoter $780,
100000 or $3O,OOO,O00 if permitted to
be perfected.

Whereas there is a large acreage

Whereas it is evident that our

Whereas, it is impossible under

appropriation, for the immigration
department to carry out a systematic
and extensive plan of publicity for

Therefore, be it resolved. That
