ARE TRYING
TO SETTLE
BOUNDARY

State Engineer Lewis and Master
Fish Warden MeAllister are back
from trip down the Columbia river,
which was made in the company of
the state engineer and master fish
warden of the state of Washington,
and for the purpose of tracing out
the boundary line between the states
of Oregon and Washington.
The bone of contention between
the officers of the two states seems
to be Puget Island, and a number Of
other small sands in the Columbia
Oregon claims that under the decis-
ion of the supreme court of the
United States that they belong to
it, and Washington claims the same,
but the Washington officers have in
dicated a willingness to compromise
the matter, but whether it will be
accepted or not, remains to be seen.
Want Sand Island.
Both agree that Sand Island be-
longs to the state of Oregon, but
Washington wants it because 1t is
feared that some day the channel
between it and the main land may
shoal up. In such event the owner
ship of the island by Oregon would
have the effect of preventing Wash
ington from having an inlet to the
river at this point, and this it seeks
to avoid.
In order to secure the ownership
of the island the Washington officers
have indicated that they are willing
to yield up Puget Island, and the
other sands in exchange for 1t. The
is being considered by
the Oregon officers, but they will
take no action with relation
to it, but refer the subject to com
mission to be appointed by the legis-
lature.
Sometime ago at a conference of |
the officers of the two states it was
agreed to urge the delegations Of
both states in congress to have a bill
passed empowering the states to set
lie the boundary line. Such bill
has now been introduced and will
undoubtedly pass when commissions
will be appointed by the legislatures
If the two states to settle the matter
lfter which acts will be passed
describing in detail the line between
he two states.

(coos Bay Times. }

The precinct caucuses for the
"Coos County Republican Assembly"
yesterday did not stir up much en-
thusiasm and only a very small por-
tion of the Republicans generally
participated in them, so far as could
be learned. In North Bend, only five
Republicans responded to the call for
the caucus and 1t was called off, the
few deciding that it would be unwise
for five men to select twenty-four
delegates to the county assembly ur
convention. In North Marshfield and
South Marshfleld there were only
small number who participated.
Less than three score Of Republic
cans in both precincts Of Marshfield
and in North Bend participated. In
the North Marshfield' Precinct there
was such frost that DR.. Mingus was
considering wiring the unusual con-
ditions to the weather department at
Portland.
In the South precinct the polls
were kept open from 2 to 4 O'Clock,
but the votes were few and scatter
ing, even after several had personal
ly solicited voters to turn out. The
response was half hearted and hope
less and there can be no further
question that the rank and file Of
the Republicans of Marshfield re-
Dudiate Portland interference and
domination in politics to the extent
of trying to defeat the aims and pur-
poses OF the direct primary law.
The rank and file OF the RepubH-
can party are unalterably opposed to
the attempt Of the assembly to revive
ring rule. Their action yesterday in
refusing TO participate in the assem-
bly, caucus Is evidence OF It.
