THAT COLUMBIA BRIDGE.

THE Legislative committee appoint
ed to confer with like commit
tee from the legislature Of Wash
ington concerning the Joint construc-
tion Of bridge across the Columbia
at Vancouver, has visited the grounds,
conferred with the other committee
and will probably report within a day
or so. What the report will be is, OF
course, not known, but the Portland
papers intimate that both committees
are favorable to the plan--hence It is
probable recommendation will be
made favoring the construction OF the
bridge.
It is unfortunate that this matter
came mp at this session, because with
the appropriation for the Panama eX-
position, It will swell the grand total
to figures that are liable to cause
much objection. That the time is COM
ing when this bridge will be built is
no doubt true, hut there are many who
are Of the opinion that time has not
yet arrived The appropriation for the
fair at San Francisco must be made
by this Legislature. Whatever sum is
decided upon-and It should not he n

one. Those In Portland advocating
the bridge appropriation are, as a rule

tion for the Oregon exhibit at the fair

THOSE CANAL TOLLS.

<< LII that glisters Is not gold"
"a says the proverb, and It is es-
pecially true. The glistening
arguments put up by those advocating
the free use Of the Panama canal by
Amorlcan-owned vessels engaged In
the coastwlse trade, and these, by the
way are the only vessels that can car
ry local freight between coatswise
ports, are far from being all gold,
while It is true that good old Uncle
Sam has about completed the canal,
and is, In q sense, It's owner It must
not be overlooked that that same own
ership has considerable Of a string on
It. We were granted the right Of way
for the canal, with the use Of strip
of territory ten miles wide, parallel
ing, but with the understanding that
the canal was to, so to speak, have a
common user clause. The whole world
was to have the use Of Il under the
same terms and restrictions as our
selves, We do not own the canal belt,
but simply have lease on Il, as It
were in perpetuity
II is none Of England's business, or
any anyone else, from one viewpoint

ing our coastwise trade, because only
American bottoms can carry Il, and
the rebate Of the tolls does not inter-

ical henchmen, who must needs get a

Wilson Is
Already at
His Work

Trenton, n j., Jan. 30,--President
Elect Woodrow Wilson conferred here
this afternoon with Representative
Carter Glass, of Virginia, chairman of
the house subcommittee drafting new
banking and currency bills. The Will
son administration probably will stand
back Of the measures.
Asked whether he would recommend
new banking and currency legislation
at the extra session, Wilson said:
81 will not announce any policy re-
garding that until l go to Washington,
because | am too far removed from
the men with whom l must confer,
This also applies to the whole extra

Gossiping regarding the inaugura-

time since l reviewed the state guard at
Sea Girt, year ago last summer"

chances to develop domestic trade
will be equally as great; many hun
dred thousands of people will attend
from the Middle West alone, and an
even greater number from the Pacific
coast states. These will come by the
thousands, seeking goods that they
can handle profitably in a constantly
expanding market; and the manufac-
turer who is seeking to increase his
output and sales, will be brought
face to face with those who are eager
to make his market

and it will be Of great value to the
Ihorticulturist, the farmer and dairy
man to have this opportunity to eX-
hibit his methods, experiences and
results for comparison with similar
exhibits from all parts of the world,
The exposition will represent a cash
outlay in buildings, grounds and eX-
hlbits amounting to many millions Of
dollars, 1t is being exploited through
out the world, and the world will
come to see It. And all this outlay Of
capital and energy and the millions
OF people who attend are at the dis
Iposal Of the exhibitor who has the
wisdom to see what It means to him,
and all without any expense to him,
other than the cost Of transportation,
installation and maintenance.

Iposition was Initiated several months

will be completed by June 25, 1914,
and contracts will be let upon that
basis. All exhibits will be installed
by the opening day, The exposition
will swing It's gates open upon a COM
Ipleted spectacle.
Those who are building the exposi-
ton are deeply convinced that they
are carrying out a great national
trust, and that they will not fulfill
that trust unless they build and con.

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT FER.
MENT.

COMMISSION government goes on
irresistably. Active efforts to
secure this plan are under way
in eleven states In nearly every inn
portant city in Ohio citizen bodies are
planning charter revision on short
ballot lines, taking advantage Of the
recent constitutional amendment,
which permits cities to frame and
adopt their own charters This move
ment has reached its most advanced
stage in Cleveland, where unofficial
nominations of charter freeholders
have been made. A bill is also in prep
aration to allow any city to adopt any
one Of the several simplified forms,
including the sumpter City manager
variation.
Three cities in New Jersey Hobo
ken, Jersey City and Bayonne, which
failed to adopt the commission plan
two years ago, will again hold cleo
tions for that purpose at the earliest
date allowable under the law.
In New York q bill for statewide
commission government law with sew
eral options is being prepared by
the Municipal Government associa-
tion, for submission to the legisla-
ture. A similar bill will be submitted
in Pennsylvania.
Bills are also being prepared to
give commission government to Fort
Smith, Ark, Charlotte, N. C, and
Wheeling, W. Va. The Phoenix, Ariz,
charter is being held up by the gov
ernor because of apparent legal de-
fects.
In Los Angeles, where proposed
charter was turned down last month
by q decisive majority, the progress
sives and the radicals are attempting
to patch up their differences, ant

primarily that the American states
are preparing to take part in this
great exposition in such an unprece-
dented degree. Great as will be the
educational and exploitation advant-
ages to exhibitors, the primary cause
for the great interest shown by the
states is that the exposition Is to cell
citrate an achievement by the Ameri-
can people that is the greatest Of its
kind in all the history Of the world,
and they will take advantage of this
great opportunity to express to the
world their pride in the great
achievement.
The vast numbers who attend the
exposition will find in the great eX-
hibit palaces exhibits representing
the very sum of human achievement
in all that makes for the comfort, hap
piness and betterment of mankind,
and these exhibits carefully inspected
with view to learning the lesson
they teach, will send the visitor back
to his home better informed along
those great economical and cultural
lines which make for human uplift, so
cially, economically and intellectual
|ly.
II Is q first consideration that this
great exposition shall bring perma-
nent values to the states Of the ma
tlon. The participating states will not
only reap great trade advantage by
displaying their resources, opportuni-
ties and advantages to q world eager
to learn, but they will learn from
each other and from the world, and
the better exposition will mark the
beginning Of a closer fellowship and
better understanding with all ma
tions and all peoples and, what Is
equally desirable, the East will come
TO know the truth about the West, and
the West will exchange fiction for re.
alities concerning the East. A repre-
sentatton Of all the states will surely
tend to the elimination Of old preiu.
dlces based on mislnformation, and
inaugurate the beginning OF new
and better understanding among the
states Of the nation.
The American manufacturer may
never again have such an opportunity
as this exposition will give to sc
