(By United Press)

LONDON, March 9.-Smyrna is about
to fall. This is the word brought by
dispatches from Athens, declaring that
only three land batteries in the prin-
cipal Asiatic port Of Turkey are re-
plying to the fire of the British war
ships which have been bombarding the
city since Saturday. A veritable rain
of shells has been pouring into the
forts on both sides of the Dardanelles.
At the rate of one per minute the pro-
jectiles are falling from the guns of
the Anglo-French fleet, the aeroplanes
dropping bombs of smaller batteries.
AS soon as the Smyrna forts have been
leveled the marines will be landed and
the city will be seized, thus furnishing
the allies with valuable base for OPP

I BOISE, March 8.-The thirteenth
session of the legislature adjourned a
1880 tonight with the usual last night
revels in each house. The house was
particularly joyful while waiting fol
the senate's final action on appropria-
1 tion bills. The feature of the senats

Custer on the commissioner OF educa-
ton. The Lewiston Normal item was
Increased by $9450 in the main item

training schools, which had been pre-
viously eliminated as a special item.

preparation bill. The house appropri-
ations committee was unanimous in a
favorable report on it, but the vote
was 35 to %. The bill was little
changed as it came from the senate.
The only amendment there was the

WHY NOT MAKE IT \ TOLL
 ROAD@

Although the article A R. C. to Build s75,00O Bridge" is printed as g. Juneau dispatch in today's pa per. ]. is not SO much as news item that attention is hereby called to it, but a suggestion for the solo- tion of the difficulty We are having in securing an appropriation for the construction of the much talked of road leading from skagway to the summit of the White Pass.
 ra, article which tells of the plan of the Juneau district to charge tolls for the Use of the bridge that the A. R. c. advances f2uds for the construction thereof suggests the idea that the skagway Commercial club bring the matter Of the White Pass Summit road up to Colonel Richardson, president of the Alaska Road commission, in the same manner, and agree with him for the reimbursement to the com mission for the money incident to the building Of the road.
 It is believed to be an accepted facf tba, a wagon road paralleltng the White Pass railway to the sum mlr would be an advantage to skas- way; great numbers Of tour ls.s would motor over such a road, and vas. amounts of tonnage would be rreis1.ed over such a thorough fare.
 h a number Of the states, where highways have been constructed. tolls are being charged; said tolls are placed in a sinking fund for the purpose of reim5urstng the state fer the initial cost, as well as for the upkeep of the road.
 Why, then, would not a system oe tolls repay in a short time such moneys as might be advanced by the A R. c. for the construction of the Skagway-White Pass wagon road?
