The SaInrv Bill.


The salary bill was taken up prompt
" by the house Monday. having been
made the special order for the day.
The house considered the bill section
by section with O. T. Toombs, OF
Union county. in the chair.
From the discussion, it appears that
the bill as now drafted just about
meets the approval of the majority of

nance committees of the house and
senate, ii can be calculated that the
bill is also acceptable to the senate
This now seems TO be the general
impression, that the bill will pass in
substantially its present form Efforts
were made several times during the
reading Of the bill to raise or lower
the salaries in some particular IN
stance, but the motion was always
tabled. with the exception Of raises
made along the whole series of classes

or three attempts to raise the salaries
especially in the first class, TO which
BernalilIo county belongs, but the
house would not stand Tor IL Repre-
sentatives Smith and Carter at olIIer-
ent times also sent in amendments for
lower salaries. especially for the treas
urers and assessors, which amendments
were supposed to be IN line win tne
policy the governor has adopted, but
these also were tabled without us

points.

WILSON TOUCHES BUTTON TO
OPEN PANAMA CANAL

Panama, Oct. 10.-The long task
of building the Panama canal, uniting
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans was
practically completed at o'clock this
afternoon, when 1,227 charges of dy-
Mantle was set off to blow up the
Gamboa dixie, separating Gatun Lake
from the Culebra Cut, the last per-
manent barrier separating the seas.
President Wilson, in the White
House at Washington, pressed but
ton that by wire and cable communi-
Gated a signal to Colonel George w.
Goethals. He then set off the blast.
Actually the removal of the Gam
boa dixie did not complete the canal,
nor did it bring about the first union
of the Atlantic and Pacific. The great
Cucaracha slide in Culebra Cut still
blocks the canal and it cannot be re-
moved for at least two weeks.
For two weeks the two seas have
been united by 24-inch pipes through
the Gamboa dixie installed by Colonel
Goethals because of the expected
water pressure.
