When the people back home next

they will have to talk about is mat
ters of general legislation, in which
they have had voting part. The
most conspicuous thing the fodr
Democrats have done during all their
Congressional service here was to SO
back to Maine in body to attend
their state convention at Augusta and
get themselves elected as delegates to
the National convention at Baltimore
instead OF letting four Democrats from
the state, who had borne some OF the
heat and burdens without reward
have these places.
Now they are apparently preparing
to go over to Baltimore and throw

the interests will be expected to help

this goes to show how easily the
Democrats get to hankering after the
flesh pots, once they find themselves
in positions of authority.

To Bridge San Francisco Bay
From the Westerner)

Now what next! The proposed
bridge connecting San Francisco and
Oakland. plans for which have been
submitted to the Board of Supervisors,
is expected to cost about $26, 900, 600.
But the money part of the scheme is
mere trihe. The bridge will be nine
and one-half miles long. If built, this
will be by far the longest and will also
be the costliest bridge in the world.
At present the Victoria bridge across
the st. Lawrence at Montreal is the
longest in existence, being about three
and one-half miles in length. The
most expensive bridge so far con-
strueted is the Brooklyn bridge at New
York, but its total cost to date, about
$22. 400, 600, includes numerous ter
minal improvements and upkeep. The
Manhattan bridge, at the same city,
cost about $26, 900, 900, but of that
amount about $4,000. 900 went for
land in Manhattan and Brooklyn. So
we may expect to see the wonder of
the world in bridges stretching across
the famous bay of San Francisco. and
when that is so, then all the cities
bordering the bay, Oakland, Alameda,
and Berkeley, at least united into one
city to be known as San Francisco.

October 12.3-4, 1912, says The Dalles

laying the preparatory groundwork for
months and from now on will be en-
gagged in gathering the loose ends,
listing stock, making contracts, draw
ing new material, advertising extern
sively and above all attempting to get
every man in the two counties behind

Holding the whole fair at the
grounds west of town last year proving
such an advance over the old custom
from the standpoint of the district as
whole the same plan will BE- followed
this year. The driving track will be
placed in its usual excellent shape
while the exhibit grounds will present
an aspect far different from the past.
Trees and sfrubbery have been planted
adding greatly to the beauty of the
landscape while the broad lawns will
eliminate the dust and sand Of past
years. The buildings are in first class
shape and it is expected that they will
be filled to capacity with county pro-
ducts. Already space has been con
tracted for in both the field and stock
sheds.
