Rates to willamette Points.

Portland-That the Hill lines will
soon be in position to quote through
passenger and freight rates to points
in the Willamette valley is virtually
admitted by H. M. Adams, general
freight and passenger agent of the
Spokane, Portland & Seattle railroad.
Negotiations for traffic arrange
ments between our line and the Oregon
Electric are on" said Mr.. Adams,
"but that is all the information that
l can give out at this time. may
have something more definite very
soon, however"
Traffic arrangements between the S.
P. & S. and the Oregon Electric will
permit the former to quote through
rates to Willamette valley points over
its lines, as we'll as the Great North
ern lines, and will give Hill greater
opportunities in the valley than the
Southern Pacific, the Northern Pacific
having traffic arrangements with the
Southern Pacific. 1t is held, too, that
the Hill lines would have even better
opportunities, in that the Oregon Elee-
trio taps richer field in many in
stances than does the Southern Pacific
lines.

Boosts for Free Locks

Washington Senator Bourne is
making last effort to procure the
adoption of his amendment to the riv-
ers and harbors bill for the purchase
of the Oregon City locks, the Federal
government paying $3.50, 600 and the
state of Oregon like amount. When
Bourne took the matter up with the
chief of army engineers, it was found
that no report had been sent by the To-
cal engineer in charge, on the subject.
Bourne then procured an order that
Major McIndoeN be ordered here to
make report. He will arrive Thurs
day when he will report. 1t may be
impossible even under this arrange
ment to get the amendment through at
this session, but Bourne is putting
forth strenuous exertions to prevent
the matter from going over to another
session.

Philadelphia, March 5.-EncourageC
by messages of sympathy and offers Of
assistance from labor unions from al
parts of the country, the union workers
of many trades ceased work at mid.
night and inauguarated what promises
to be one of the greatest sympathetic
strikes in the history of organized la
Dor.
The Committee of Ten says that at
least 85, 900 organized workers, as well
as many unorganized men, have ceased
work.
Promptly at midnight union orches-
tras playing in the leading hotels and
cafes picked up their instruments and
started for home.
Union cabdrivers and chauffeurs also
abandoned their posts, and the hotel
and railroad cab and automobile SER
vice was badly crippled. The drivers
of both taxicab companies in the city
are members of a union and refused to
take out their machines after midnight.
The Committee of Ten remained in
session at its headquarters all night,
receiving reports from the local unions.
The labor leaders refused to com
ment on the report that the police
would prevent the demonstration plan
ned for tomorrow afternoon in Inde-
pendence Square.
Although the labor leaders are re-
ceiving moral support from their fell
low workmen in all parts of the coun-
try, many associations of employers
have sent letters and kilograms to the
officials of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company and the city officials,
commencing their position and urging
them to stand firm in their determine
tion not to recognize the union.

NEWS NOTES GATHERED FROM
VARIOUS PARTS OF OREGON
sToRg wArERs OF JOHN DAY
Reclamation Service Would lrrigate
Lands in Morrow County,

Fossil-A. J. Blakely, government
civil engineer, with an assistant sur
veyor and party of four helpers, are
working on the upper John Day river
the reclamation service. Mr..
Blakely has been at work along the
Iohn Day river near the mouth of
Thirty-mile, about three months, meas
uring the flow Of water and surveying
dam site, with view of storing the
winter flow of the river for the irriga-
tlon of large tract of arid land near
the mouth of Willow creek, in Morrow
county, and possibly to irrigate Shut
tier Flat, in Gillian county. 1t is re-
ported he found that reservoir near
the mouth of Thirty-mile would be
too low to reach the land above re.
ferred to, hence the move to the upper
river.
The lands along the John Day river,
where the party has been surveying,
We're withdrawn from settlement by
the government some years ago, and
have since been marked on the plats
as belonging to government irriga-
tion project. Later, part of the upper

station east of the Cascade tunnel.
The report was brought to Seattle by
Ed Clark, section man who has been
working in the mountains. He said
that he walked through Cascade this
morning and that everything had been
wiped out but cook shack. Two men
at the scene told him of the death of
the six laborers, whose names are not
known. The Great Northern has re-
ceived no report of an avalanche at
Cascade, but it is known that several
bad slides have occurred on the east
slope of the mountains. All commune

PREDICTS JAPANESE WAR.
Banker Schiff Who Loaned Japan
Money Says She is Enemy.


New York, March 7.-"As one who
helped to finance the late war of Japan
against Russia, =" said Jacob H. Schiff
this afternoon, II say it has developed
during the last few weeks that Japan
has joined hands with that enemy of
all mankind, Russia"
Mr.. Schiff was speaking at lunch
con given by the Republican club.
Russia and Japan" he continued,
"have evidently one purpose at pres
ent-to keep the great Chinese empire
stihed.
If we are not careful, if we do not
show the right craftsmanship, and if
we have not back of it the great moral
force Of the American people to defeat
that purpose, we shall be drawn into
trouble.
"The most difficult problem the ma
tion has to deal WITH" continued Mr..
Schiff, sis the problem of the Far
East. / am sorry to have to say it,
but we are in danger of war over this
same question. Asa friend of Japan,
one who helped to finance her late war,
I regret this conclusion, but it is in
evitable."
"The Pacific" said Judge Mayer
Sulzberger, of Philadelphia, who pre-
ceeded Mr.. Schiff, and whose remarks
occasioned his declaration, "is now the
commercial center of the world. On
its eastern shores dwell the oldest civ
ilizations. Heretofore we white men
have said I'VE are Caucasians and they
are yellow men, and we have expected
them to bow to us accordingly. This
they are not going to do. A conflict is
inevitable.
AN empire were 400, 900, 900 people
manage to exist is governed by no
mean craftsmanship. Can they teach
us or can we teach them? This ques-
tion will precipitate the trouble.
The imminent question is Japan.
She wants everything but she is not to
be allowed to get everything. The
controversy over this question of dom
nance is coming before the people of
this country, and coming soon"
