MUCH WORK FOR CONGRESS

The prospect that congress will lin
ish its legislative program before it
is time to adjourn is rather dubious,
to say the least. With less than SIX
ty working days left before the ses-
sion must end, it will require some
tall hustling to dispose of even half
of the important bills and measures
still remaining to be acted upon, and
this probably is about as far as con-
gress will get before the arrival OF
March a.
Among the more important meas
ures now pending are the following
Fifteen appropriation bills, five OF
which have passed the house and are
now in senate committees; the pro-
posed railroad legislation, revenue
measure, water power bill, mineral
lands and oil leasing bill, the "dry''
bill for the District of Columbia, the
flood control bill, the public build
ings bill, the Porto Rico bill, the
Smith vocational educational bill, the
corrupt practices bill, the national
prohibition constitutional amendment
resolution and the woman suffrage
amendment.
This is a rather formidable list
one that cannot be disposed of quick
ly. no matter how attentive to busi-
ness the members may be from now
on. Some of the measures will OF
course be whipped into shape in com
mittee, but others are sure to cause
considerable debate and argument
which will take time and delay the
program of actual enactment. The
most puzzling problem of all is prob
ably to be found in the proposed rail
road legislation, which looks to the
enlargement of the interstate CON-
nerce commission, for the adoption
of a system Of arbitration to prevent
strikes and lockouts and giving the
president power to take over the rail
roads in case of military necessity
That congress will require some time
to dispose of this measure goes with
out saying, and there are several 9th
er questions almost as difficult Of So
luton.
AT the commencement of the ses-
sion there was much talk Of "speed-
ing up" the work and trying to gel
through before time for adjournment
Instead of following this plan the
same old tactics of delay and procras
tination we're followed, and now i
is conceded there is little chance fol
clearing the calendar before the ses
sion comes to an end. OF course Their

A COMMENDABLE ACT.

The action of the county courts OF
Marion and Polk counties in closing
the rickety, shaky bridge over the
river at Salem this week is com
mendable one. For more than four
years the structure has been declared
unsafe, in fact it was first condemn
ed in 1912, and that no accident has
happened since that time, and that
the bridge was able to withstand the
burden of heavily increased travel
since the auto has come into general
use, is almost miracle In its pres
ent stage engineers pronounce it alb
solutely unsafe; it is as liable to fall
of its own accord as with load up.
on it they say.
For some time there had been an
insistent demand made for its clos
ing, but the two courts had been pre-
vailed upon to let it remain open for
use under certain traffic restrictions.

minds of some, to safety. Its clos
ing, however, has now removed the
possibility of loss of life through its
failure and has taken away the re-
sponsibility of the counties for acci-
dent. Polk county people very gener
ally approve of the prompt action OF
Judge Kirkpatrick and Commissioners
Mansion and Beckett in demanding
the close of the structure at this
time.
Now that the old bridge has gone
into disuse, and funds, have been ap-
propriated for the erection OF a new
one, the two county courts state they
will use all possible haste in build
ing the new bridge. Though the
question of what type to build still
remains to be threshed out, it seems
that the general sentiment of people,
in Polk county at least, is for the
high level concrete bridge and the
courts in making the selection will,
no doubt, take this sentiment into
consideration.

PANAMA CANAL AGAIN READY

Official announcement is made that
the Panama canal has been freed of
distractions caused by the land slides
at Culebra and Cucuracha, and that
regular traffic through this shortcut
waterway soon will be resumed. The
belief also is expressed by officials
that no further trouble of this char
acter will be experienced, which is
encouraging, to say the least. There
has been some alteration of the orig
inal plans, it would seem, for it is ex-
planned that in repairing the damage
caused by the slides the channel has
been cleared to depth of thirty-five
feet for about half of its width, and
70 thirty feet for the remainder. This
makes the big ditch somewhat shall
lower than originally was contemplate
ed, but doubtless capable of handling
all traffic, else the engineers would
not have adopted this plan.
The point of interest is that the ca
nal is again ready for business, with
good prospect that no further inter-
ruptions of traffic will occur And as
the American people have invested
about $400,0O0,00O in this improve
ment they will be very glad to know
the work is regarded as finally COM
pleted and that the investment will
now commence to bring in tangible
returns. During the brief time the
canal was in operation, before the
slides caused trouble, a very salts
factory revenue resulted, with pros
peet of a steady increase. And as
soon as the great war ends and COM
merce returns to normal conditions, il
is believed that traffic through the
canal will rapidly grow, with a cor
responding increase in tolls.
In this connection, however, it is
pointed out that in order to get the
full benefits and advantage of the ca
nal, this country must do something
to relieve itself of its present de

pendence on foreign shipping. The
foreign commerce Of the United States
has increased wonderfully since the
commencement Of the war, but it will
be hampered and handicapped unless
an American merchant marine is de-
veloped to take care Of it. This is a
problem that cannot be ignored, and
the sooner that congress addresses it.

better it will be for this nation and
its business interests.

BARELY HOLDING THEIR OWN.

An interesting fact brought out by
the completed statistics Of the recent
national election is the poor showing
made by the sp-called minor parties.
The total Prohibition vote, for in
stance, was only 225,000, in round
numbers, trife over one per cent OF
the total vote cast. The Socialists
did somewhat better, with 100000
votes, but this, the same as with the
Prohibitionists, was falling off from
the high record of the party in the
past. In 1912 the Socialists polled
9O1, 90 votes for Mr.. Debs, while the
Prohibitionists reached their high-wa-
ter mark in 1892, with a registry Of
264, 900.
Neither of these parties, in other
words, seems to be making appreciable
gains in the matter of vote getting,
regardless of how they are succeed
ing in disseminating the principles
on which their organizations are bas-
ed. And last year they had every
opportunity to show their full
strength, for there was "a smaller
number of tickets in the field, as COM
pared with several preceding cleo
tions.
As a matter of fact, it would ap-
pear that the American people have
little inclination to encourage or JOIN
the so-called minor parties. An inde-
pendent political movement occasion
ally acquires considerable following,
as occurred in the 1912 election when
the Progressives fairly split the Re-
publican vote in two, and also in
preceding election when the gold DEM
ocrats did the same thing to the reg
ular Democrats. Such incidents, how
ever, have been based on extraordln-
ary conditions, and when the special
questions involved have been settled
the party "splits" have been healed
and the opposing factions reunited.
But the small independent parties
have made slow headway and can lind
little encouragement in the showing
which they made in the last general
election.

I wish to thank the people of
road district No. 20 for the interest
they took in having the county court
appoint me as road supervisor. For
this favor will give the best service

SOME THINGS
) + + = + ; = = = = s4+**t
Prunes Are Golden Eagles.

A record of $4,000 profit from 81
acres of prunes in the last six years
was the foundation of the address Of
L. F. Russell, the Washougal, WASH
ington, prune king, before the prune
convention at o. A. C. last week. Fer
tilizers, tillage, pruning, and spray
ing, are the means by which he works
this magic of the soil and grows a
big crop of high class prunes every
year.
When Mr.. Russell came into pos
session of his prune orchard it was
in a badly run down condition. He
cut out the old and undesirable wood,
II cords of limbs and 100 loads of
brush. The young trees he headed
the first year but only thinned there
after, and they came into bearing at
four years old. Old wood is cut out
or when dead broken with gloved
hands.
The real magic of the wonderful
yield is the fertilizer-ten tons of
cheap manure per acre every year.
Heiused to buy this but now produces
it on the farm. Every fall he buys up
big lot Of feeders, which he confines
in sheds for the entire fattening per-
iod. He buys every ounce of feed,
in car lots, which the sheep convert
into manure while putting on flesh.
The value of this manure with the
straw litter just about equals the
price of feed, leaving the grain in the
carcass to labor and profit. This year
he markets 1000 head of fat sheep
and lambs, receiving the equivalent OF
25 cents per pound for the latter in
the Seattle market.
Early and thorough plowing is an
other item. This must be done not
later than March 20.
Tillage is frequent and thorough up
to mid-August, averaging more than
score of workings.
Spraying Systematically for brown
rot is said to be so essential that
there is no success without it. Bor-
deaux is used.
In general pruning, heavy thinning
is performed.
Tools are simply an Oliver Chilled
plow, spike harrow, and clod masher.
Two men and one team are required
the year round.
That the system will work for 9th
er people Mr.. Russell has proved. On
nearby prune farms he has directed
operations yielding about the same
profit per investment.
"Many prune men said that the
talk was worth more than the cost OF
the trip to Farmers week, F" said Pro-
fessor Lewis in discussing the subject
