The Senate devoted the greater part
of Thursday to consideration of the
postal savings bank bill agreeing to
several amendments. The Lodge price
of food investigation resolution was
reported from the committee on
finance, and the fact that it received
so much more prompt attention than
the resolution of Senator Elkins on
the same subject was interpreted by
the West Virginia Senator as a dis
elimination against him. He made a
speech complaining seriously Of the
treatment and asserting that it was in

tariff against the inquiry. The House
passed the agricultural appropriation
bill, carrying appropriations aggregat-
ing nearly $13, 100000 net increase
of over 100000 over last year, this
increase being chiefly for the forest
service, made necessary by the addition
to the national forests of 26,522, 439
acres. Consideration of the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill was
begun.

Mr.. Payne explained, made the legis-

during nearly all thu 'ession.
The entire time Of the Senate Tues
day was devoted to discussion of the
postal savings bank bill. Senator Da-

was in the interest of the national
banks, while Senator Smith of Michi-

a plague instead of blessing. W. E.

COAL CRISIS N

WEATHER GIVES No HOPE OF
SUPPLYING THE CITY WITH
FUEL-FREIGHT TRAINS FRoz-
EN- In ICE.


Chicago, jan 15,-Weather condi-
lions have produced condition in
railroad transportation business in
Chicago that is akin to a calamity.
The coal carrying trade is paralyzed
and traffic generally on the steam
roads is so demoralized that passen-
ger schedules have been smashed and
the movement of the freight regard
ed as almost a minus quantity.
Chicago, which for weeks has suf-
fered from a scarcity of coal, is
threatened with one of the worst fuel
famines in years, according to expert
coal servers. To make matters worse,
the weather forecaster says cold
spell is at hand, which means that
thousands of freight cars in the vari-
Gus railroad yards which are now
axle deep in snow and slush will be-
come icebound on the tracks. Nothing
but an unusual rise in temperature,
it is asserted, can then release them
from their frozen anchorages.

RIVER IMPROVEMENT.

Hereafter a new policy will govern
in making appropriations for river
and harbor improvements. The
wasteful methods of earlier days, in
which there was a scramble to OBJ
tain appropriations without any
clearly defined idea for which they
were to be used or the benefits to
be derived will not be tolerated in
the future The president in his re-
cent message 'has made this clear.
Before an appropriation for river i'm
provement will meet with executive
approval, a specific project must be
presented showing the cost. the feas-
Utility, the probable tonnage that
: will result and the urgent need for
the proposed improvement.
This new policy will throw the res
possibility for initiating river i'm
provements on the people of those
sections in which they are desired.
A showing must be made that the
traffic to be carried will justify the
undertaking in the interests of an
urgent commercial need. To this end
statistics must be compiled showing
area under cultivation, the value, ii-
versity and quality of products, the
increase that will result from river
improvement
The people of North Central Wash
ington are vitality interested in the
opening of the upper courses of the
Columbia. In order to obtain gov
ernmental action on this project
there must be in the first place a
proper showing made and in the sec
ond place there must be harmony
and unanimity in our congressional
delegation. All attempts to foster
jealousies in our delegation by mag
nifying trivial and petty differences
should be discouraged in the inter-
est of obtaining benefits of a substan-
tial character.
1t is reported that government en-
gineers are at work in the vicinity
of Priest Rapids. If so this is good
news. 1t is now up to our CONNER
cial organizations to let our repre-
sentatives and senator's know that
we are vitality interested in the i'm
provement of the upper courses of
the Columbia, and that We expect
them to be alert in getting the upper
Columbia included in a project.
