Senator Chamberlain. chief sponsor Of the measure. will have charge Of the bill on the floor of the senate.
 Discussion of the bill in the com mittee this afternoon narrowed down to the form of supervision Of con struction. The plan advocated by Senator Jones, of Washington. to 1 place the construction of the prepoS- ed roads in the hands of a com mittee of five competent men. was i finally rejected. As the bill now stands. the president of the United States alone is charged with the supervision Of the work and will he held responsible for it's proper per i formance.
 1 Speaking privately. the senators
 who are interested in seeing the measure pass. entertain little expec- tation that the bill will receive the consideration of the senate at this session, but they believe that agi- tation of the measure at this time

 Revelations of sensational nature are promised by members of the senate who have been interested in the lobby investigation of the past few weeks.

While the weather has been fine for
the past week, it has been very cold
and backward all spring. In fact
spring is later this year than it has

late spring, and there was much
trouble, on the railroad. In another
column in this issue we print few ex-
tracts from the Orofino Optimist pub
listed at that time, from which it can
be#seen that this is not much later
spring than we had that year. Sixteen
