The accompanying photograph show
ing the big Battleship Vermont, moor
ed in the slip at the Astoria port docks,
demonstrates clearly that Oregon pos
sesses a harbor and dockage facilities
adequate to accommodate all the great
ships of the Pacific fleet.
For the first time in the history oil
the Pacific coast, excepting at navy
yard, an American battleship of the
dreadnaught class moored alongside a
dock on September 9Th of this year.
The craft was the Battleship Vermont,
of 10000 tons displacement and draw
ing 27.6 feet, and the dock was in AS
toria's harbor. She entered the river,
came up the bay at half tide, ran in
to the slip and moored at Pier with
out the aid of tug. The Vermont lay
at the wharf until the afternoon OF
September t8th, when she backed out
and, swinging around without assist
ance, proceeded to sea. The feat was a
most unusual one at any port in the
world and clearly defines the splendid
conditions in the Astoria harbor and at
the port terminals.
There Is probably not another COM
mercial dock from the Canadian line
to the Mexican line where such q
thing would be attempted

BUDGET LAW
STILL IS ENFORCED

The county budget law is not re-
pealed nor set aside by the supreme
court but is still in full force and
effect, according to an opinion pre-
pared Thursday, by Attorney General
Brown for the information and guild
ance OF Paul v. Maris, county agent
leader Of the cooperative extension
division Of O. A. C. Attorney General
Brown explains that he has had nu-
merous inquiries from all parts of the
state relative TO the status of the
budget law.
According to the opinion the su-
preme court has held unconstitution-
al an amendment to the budget law
passed by the legislature of 1915 be-
cause of the fact that the amendment
merely referred to the title Of the act
and did not set out the amendment
in full as required by law.
In declaring that the budget law Is
still in effect Brown farther explains
that county courts are still required
to publish In official county newspa-
pers of the county tentative county
budget and TO hold open hearings
thereon.
