GOOD NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

On top of the good news that the federal
building bill has passed the senate comes the
good news that the board of engineers for
rivers and harbors has reported favorably ON

Ultimately there, will be four or five millions
at least spent by Uncle Sam in making the local
harbor big enough to accommodate the great
ocean traffic of the future Crossroads But for
the present it is sufficiently encouraging to
know that nine points have been won in the
fight for a channel and turning basin on the
west side of the present harbor.
Score another for the 0ptimists!
