U.S.. INTERESTED IN STEEL PLANT
Keeping in Touch With Progress Made By
Manager Rothert-Want Samples Of Ore

Manager Rothert received a long
two page letter from the Interior de-
partment this week, making inquiry
about the progress Of the steel plant
and asking for samples Of the magne-
tite iron ore from Blewett. The de-
partment also wanted to know with
what other minerals the titanium con-
tanned in the ore was combined, Part
Of the ore samples were wanted for
the laboratory Of the John Hopkins
University, at Baltimore, where the
government is carrying on experiments
with magnetic.
The letter states that on account of
the immense bodies of magnetic ore
turnout the United States and its very
superior quality for making both iron
and steel the government is very much
interested in the progress he is max
ing with his plant. Some time ago by
request he sent sample of his steel to
Mr. Sheridan, son OF the famous gener-
al of that name, at present employed
by the government as an expert in the
ordinance department. Mr.. Sheridan
wrote that the Rothert steel showed
twice the resistance to impact that the
nic kle steel now used for armour plate
by the government showed, The gov
eminent is taking very deep interest
in Mr.. Rothert's process, as under its
direction experiments with magnetic
have been carried on for years, in the
hope that satisfactory process ofsmelt-
ing this valuable ore might be found.

The c. w. B. NJ. Society Meet

The C. w. B. M. Society met Sat-
urday p. m. with Mrs. Anna Sampson.
The program opened with song service
in which several young girl visitors
took the prominent part. Mrs. Sampson
at the piano and the latter also led in

Mrs. A. R. Pinch. Hymns were
again sung, Mrs. Atwood presiding at
the piano. Mrs. w. B. Simpson recit-
ed on the topic, The Need Of Prayer"
Miss Noble; her continued theme
THE Women of the Bible". This
time it was: Priscilla sometimes men
toned as Prisca, wife OF Aquilla. This
woman was always mentioned with her
husband, and in four cases out of the
six mentioned her name was given the
prominence Of the first place. With
her mental and spiritual gifts there is
room for great lesson to all women.
Mrs. Pinch gave: Requisites for an
Ideal c. w. B. M. Society.
We noted what we lack Of coming
to the standard, also we made mention
Of few points in which we have at
tanned the required record, viz. Our
president has never been absent nor
tardy. We have never missed pro-
gram since the organization in March,
1910. Dues have always been paid
cheerfully and sent to the proper place
on time. We have doubled the men,
bership. At this meeting we had
eight visitors. One new member.
At the next meeting November 4th
1t is our intention to give public
meeting the first Sunday in December

might be Disseminated against by the
company, say that on several hundred
feet 90 cents per running foot would
not have paid for sharpening the drills.
But why mention Mr.. Woldenberg's
ridiculous figures, he is already hung,
and we are out Of rope anyway. The
women and children have seen thru
his calculations, so thin and transpar-
ent with error are they.
You will note that when we have
quoted figures We have given names,
rather than lay them on unknown and
irresponsible somebody's whose names
are not given. Those who favor the
bonding proposition have no fear of
figures, indeed we'll authenticated fig
ures are their chief reliance.
George Ouren who has made his
home in Leavenworth for the past six
years says: 1t is utterly impossible to
dig bitches 215 feet deep and feet
wide for 4 cents foot. Before COM
ing here I lived in Wenatchee and
took contract to dig bitches for water
pipes l foot wide, y feet deep at 8
cents per foot, not in solid rock, and
could not possibly make more than 50
per day. bitches in this town III
feet deep and feet wide can not be
dug for less than 20 cents per foot on
an average. I do not know what the
laying and driving together of the pipe
and filing the ditch will cost. l have
seen a good many bitches opened up
here. One will strike rock at almost
every block and it costs something to
open bitches in rock. But why talk
of this. The very children Of the
town know that bitches can not be dug
here for four cents per foot.
w. H. Franklin: have worked a
good deal on the streets OF this town.
Have worked in the bitches for the
pipe lines in the past five years and to
talk Of opening bitches here 215 feet
deep for cents per foot is talking
foolishness. 1t can not be done for
tw ice that much. In many places the
cost Of sharpening drills amounts to
more than ten cents per foot.

Editor Echo,
Dear Sir:-I see in the Echo that

I have bought 100 acres of land here

Further on Mr.. Woldenberg adds:
THE total cost of a municipality own
ed water system from its source on Snow
creek discharging same into your
house, would be about" s36,5
Mr.. Woldenberg, in connection with
the above statement, advocates the
purchase of the Tumwater Light and
Water company's distribution system
at S18,648, add this to the S36,503
and you have sss,151. He does not
explain how this is to be met. Rope
number one.
The building Of road to an intake
on Snow creek, says Mr.. Willis, con-
nected with thelocal forestry department
who has had some experience in road
building and is familiar with the char
acter Of the country in the vicinity OF
Snow creek, would cost much more
than $500 if it is to used to haul mater
ial to build a dam and intake and TO
haul the pipe over. Rope number
two.
Mr.. Woldenberg proposes to bring
the water from Snow creek to Leaven-
worth under 200 and 100 feet head,
OF 800 feet between intake and outlet.

A meeting Of exceptional importance
is the Northwest Conference of Chair
ties and Correction in session in Seat
tie October 1921. Delegates from
all importont communities in the
Northwest will be present to hear prac-
tical talks given by authorities of ma
tional experience. The instructions
are valuable in that they point a way
for correcting, forestalling and prevent
ing the social conditions that old er
communities find it so hard to combat.
At the same time the Playground and
Recreation institute for the Northwest
ern States will be in session.

Paul Weigand was in Seattle the first
of the week on business.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1911-10-20

In his discussion of the water ques-
ton Mr.. Woldenberg makes great
virture of figures, and frequently re-
fers to the fact that they have not been
disputed. From a number of remarks
we have heard made by both men and
women we have come to the conclu-
sion that the public generally consider
Mr.. Woldenberg's figures SO ridicu-
lousy low, and intended to deceive,
that they do not carry much weight.
1t is quite true that Mr.. Jacobsen,
manager of the Tumwater Light and
Water Company considers them very
accurate, and says he has hereto fore
always been opposed to Mr.. Wolden-
berg but that in his contention in this
instance he is with him because he is
right. But Mr.. Jacobsen is very
much interested witness, and When
self the wavering balance shakes it's
rarely right adjusted"
With the studied purpose of giving
Mr.. Woldenberg an opportunity to
tangle himself in his own web of figures
we have refrained from using any
numbers whatever, with an abiding
faith that he would verify an old adage,
If given enough rope he would hang
himself" The time has now come
when it is pertinent to quote figures.
We bespeak your patience, gentle
reader. Last week he made use OF
the following figures to prove to you
that it was quite possible for the town
to pay for its supply and distribution
water system and have money left over
out Of $4,000.
Estimating the cost of supply sys-
tenn he says:
5000 # of 8 in pipe, 200 #
head laid down in Leaven-
worth, approximate cost $,oO0
10000 # 8 in pipe 100 #

In the death of Harry Fairchild, Gov.
M. E. Hay loses one of the strongest
members of his organization. Before
becoming a member of the State Rail
way Commission, six years ago, Mr..
Fairchild was successful lawyer. He
played an important part in the organ
ization of the commission and helped
make it an effective arm of the law.
He died chairman of the new Public
Utilities Commission. Now, Gov. Hay
is looking for capable m an to sue
ceen Fairchild. Whoever gets the
place will have to bring certain politi-
cal strength to the governor, who is
now building fences for his renomina-
ton.

To all appearances, the Atlantic-Pa-
cifc Transport Company, which plans
to operate a line of steamships between
New York and Puget Sound, via the
Panama canol, will become reality.
B. N. Baker, of Baltimore, who recent
ly visited this coast in the interest of
the company, reports that he has
enough capital in sight for the project.
A bounty for carrying the United
States mails is one Of the inducements
which has encouraged the organizers of
the company. These vessels will be
the means Of carrying freight back and
forth between the two coasts for about
one fourth what it cost now by rail.

What is now merely the Road to
Three Nations or the Pacific Highway
promises to become the Road to Two
Continents. Having laid out an auto
mobile route throught British Columbia
to the Alaskan boundary, the next step
is to complete the chain from San
Diego to the Cityof Mexico There
after, it will continue southwark thru
to the Straight of Magellan. 1t is the
plan of the Pacific Highway advocates
to make it possible to motor all up and
down the Pacific coast of North and
South Amerca. VINO knows but what
a parallel route will be laid out on the
other side, so that it will be possible to
spin all around both continents and re-
turn.

STATE SUPERINTENDENTS MEET
At Topeka, Kansas, On October 1920
J. M.Layhue viii Represent This State

To represent the state at the annual
convention OF state superintendents
which is to be held at Topeka, Kansas,
on October $500. J. M. Lahue,
assistant superintendent Of public in
struction will leave Olympia in short
time. One of the big questions that
will come up at the convention will be
the adoption of a uniform sytem of
certifcation of teachers, and Mr.. Lay
hue who is considered an authority on
this subject will urge that the Wash
ington system be adopted for all the
states. He says he will urge this
strongly at the convention as there is
already a tendency to adopt the princi-
pal features OF the Washington plan.

CELEBRATED
MAY DAY AT The
WILLAMETTE
GAVE THE CORONATION A DFUC-
EDLY ENGLISH FLAVOR,
DON'T YER KNOW" AND AL
so SURROUNDED THE GOOD
THINGS TO EAT.

Although the rain Of yesterday
took some of the enjoyment from the
exercises, the entire May day a.
Willamette University was a continu,
al round of pleasure for all the stu,
dents who participated. About 2OC
students and others came in the
morning and ate the breakfast
which the Y. w. C. A. girls had pre-.
pared for the occasion. Noon also
brought free feed to all who came
and the dining room of the Eaton
Club was crowded.
The coronation Of the King and
Queen Of May was bag feature of the
day. The ceremony took place in
the chapel. Picked singers from the
glee club and ladies' club sang sew
eral numbers, and the Duke of Can
terbury placed the crown upon the
kneeling prince. The Duke OF York
then crowned Miss Alma Haskins
queen. She spoke briefly to her
subjects, and the chorus Joined in the
song Long Live the Queen"
The track meet, which took place
yesterday afternoon, was the most
closely contested ever seen upon the
Willamette field, At the finish of the
third event from the last the score
was tied. Lowe and Mills arose to
the occasion and pulled down first
and second in the 220 hurdles and
Willamette was seven points ahead
Pacific captured the relay race, and
score stood finally 60 to 81 in favor
Of Willamette. Blackwell was the
star performer for Willamette, max
ing 21 points, receiving first honors
In the 100-yad dash, broad jump and
shot-put and second in the 220-yard
dash and the 50-yard dash. Ferrin
Of Pacific, received first in the pole
vault, and high jump, while Bryant
was their strong man on the sprints
In the broad jump and shot-put w
U. received all three places, and, the
strange part of it, was that the same
three men took the same places in
both events. Blackwell, Westley and
RAIDER. Austin, the crack distance
man from Pacific, easily took the
mile and the half, although Row.
land, of Willamette, ran plucky
race, getting second in both contests
A return meet will be held {
short time later at Cottage Grove.
