New Headquarters for Aberdeen Ditci

wow 1ed0Quarter8 TOT A0eroeen Often
w. P. Powers who is a director for
the Aberdeen-Springfied Canal COM
pany has returned from Aberdeen
where he attended the regular month
ly meeting of the board, and reports
that steps will be taken at once to
extend the head OF the canal to the
main channel of Snake river, a dis
lance Of about one mile and build
new headgates at that point.
This will put the new head Of the
canal alongside or near to the head
gates of the Peoples canal which
was moved several years ago for the
same reason that the head of Aber-
deem ditch Is now being changed.
The whole trouble grows out of .
change in the main current Of the
river which has left the head Of the
Aberdeen system on the edge Of a
big slough which once carried the
main channel of the stream.
A committee composed Of directors
Of the company was appointed to
take charge Of the work and proceed
Immediately to secure the necessary
plans and specifications and have the
work done either by day labor or un-
der contract.
No estimate of the cost has been
made but 1t may range all the way
from $4,000 to $4,000 depending
upon the methods adopted and the
course to be pursued.
Director Powers is of the opinion
that it will not be necessary to levy
any extra assessment upon the wat
er users of the canal system in or
der to pay for this improvement
Already the company has surplus
of nearly $4,000 or at least that sum
is in sight and will be in the hands
of the board when all present year
assessments have been paid.
This excellent condition Of the fin
ances of the canal company is most
gratifying to the members of the
board when it is remembered that
the rate of assessment on the Aber-
deem tract is lower than on any other
large irrigated tract in the northwest
The cost of maintenance on SOD q
such tracts exceeds 81 per acre,
while under the Aberdeen ditch the
cost has never exceeded IS cents per
acre.

Knew What He Wanted.

A roughly dressed man went into a
drug store and presented a Doctors
prescription to the clerk. This paper
called for ten grains of Quinine. but
when the druggist proceeded to do up
the prescribed amount his customer
objected.
Here. I want you to put that qui-
nine on this prescription" he said !:
and l want q lot more'n what you've
weighed out, tool"
But your prescription calls for only
ten grains" exclaimed the clerk.
Never you mind; you dump all the
Quinine you can get on the paper the
doc gave me. know what he said
told him wanted some quinine for
a cold. and he says. You take this pa.
per right over to the druggist and get
It hlled!'"

1--WE hope this year to have enough
cars on hand for the moving Of the
potato crop when it is ready to be

terming himself Progressive Repub-

there is no such political party, Can

HOUSE DUTIES ON
LEATHER STAND

House on the silk schudule, giving
up its specific rates and restoring
the ad valorem rates in the House
bill and agreeing to a reduction of
duties below those carried in the bill
as it passed the Senate. An agree
ment was also reached on aluminium,
the Senate rates prevailing.
The war that has been waged for
free art was won when the Senate
receded from all of its amendments
to the House bill.
The fight made in the Senate by
Senators Root and Lodge apparently
bore fruit. Chairman Underwood of
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, backed UP by his colleagues
from the House, refused absolutely
to yield to the Senate.
The action taken yesterday affects
not only the art paragraphs in the free
list but also the paragraphs in the
sundry schudule.
A critical study of the Underwood
Simmons tariff bill to determine
whether it will produce enough reve-
nue. for governmental needs was still
under way today when the tariff con-
ference committee resumed work.
Reductions by the Senate have in
many instances been opposed by the
House conferees on the ground that
they would cut the revenues beyond
the margin of safety.
Chairman Simmons, of the Senate
conferees, has announced tina. the bill
would amply meet the revenue needs
of the nation. Some of the moro i'm
portant disputes, however, are on ar
ticles on which House members fear
a reduction of rates will mean too
much loss of revenue. There was lit
tie prospect when the conference
was resumed today that details of
the bill could be completed before the
end of next week.

AWAIT RULING ON
GARMENT UNIONS

The ruling of the credentials COM
mittee of the Essex Trades Council
on the question of whether or not
delegates from three locals of the
Garment Workers Union are to be
seated at the council will be awaited
with interest at the meeting of the
trades body on next Friday. The
failure of these locals to pay their
pro rata share of the expenses of hir-
ing music for the Labor Day parade
was the chief topic of discussion at
the meeting Of the council last night.
Delegate Springer, of the Musicians
Union, objected to the seating of the
newly elected delegates of Local 21s,
of the garment workers, until their
parade bill had been paid. Threats
to unseat the delegates at the next
meeting, unless the musicians were
paid by that time, were made by
the credentials committee, which was
called in to pass on the matter.
1t was then stated by delegates of
Locals EOS and 276 that they were
ready to pay their shares, notwith-
standing the fact that the joint
board of garment locals had been
dissolved. This offer again placed the
problem in the hands of the creden-
tials committee. which will make it's
final report at the next meeting. The
garment local delegates were criti-
cised by President Spade, of the
Trades Council, for their apparent
carelessness in this matter
According to Secretary Hilfers,
delegate for the cigar makers, their
demand for an increase in wages
would be granted by September 20.
The increase asked Is fifty cents to
81 per 1000 cigars. The men are now
paid at rates varying from 80 to SIS
par LOCO cigars
