GET READY
FOR Big DAM
IN COLUMBIA
preliminary Work Starts on the
Priest Rapids Power and Ir-
rigation Project
CONTRACT LET FOR BORINGS
plans Contemplate Largest Dam and
} Second Largest Power Plant in
United States

One of the development dreams of
the people of the Columbia river val
1ev now seems in a fair way to be
realized. One of the big possibilities
of the future has been the harnessing
Of Priest Rapids, in the Columbia riv-
er. rs miles above Kennewick, for the
generation of electrical power and the
irrigation of hundreds of thousands
of fertile lands on both sides of the
river.
Some of the possibilities of the
sreat project are outlined in last
Sundays Seattle Times as follows:
BY the letting of contract for
making test borings in the bed of
the stream to ascertain the character
Of the rock on which the giant dam
they propose to build must rest, east
an capitalists interested have taken
another forward step in their colos-
ssl plan to harness the mighty Co
hmbia river at Priest Rapids in Cen
tral Washington to develop one of
the great water powers on the Amer
ican continent.
What may prove to be the work
preliminary to the beginning of ac-
tual building of the great dam will
sart this week when Jarrett &
Chambers, construction engineers and
contractors of New York, will set
crew Of men to work making ready
for drilling operations. A number of
big diamond drills will be on the
ground by the middle of the week.
and it is understood that they will
BE set up and put into action as soon
Is barges and pontoons can be built
trom which to operate them.
News that test borings were to be
made on the dam site leaked out a
few days ago when R. H. Chambers
Of the firm of engineers and con-
tractors mentioned, visited Seattle for
the purpose of ordering lumber and
other materials for the construction
d the fleet of barges and scows that
will be used in the drilling operations.
Ar. Chambers avoided discussion of
his plans, but admitted the purpose
a his Seattle visit.
Big Drilling Contract
The contract for the drilling oper-
stons in itself is rather large, it is
MD, involving the expenditure of
many thousands of dollars, about
100000, according to one estimate,
nt it is insignificant when compared
With the enormous expenditures that
Will be made if the great hydroelec-
nc project is undertaken and carried
out in accordance with tentative
Plans that have been under consider
anon for many months.
These plans are for the ultimate
Expenditure of between $4,000, 900
and $100,000,000, and for the con-
Muction of a hydro-electric plant
mat will develop 100000 horsepower
o. more for industrial purposes, in
odently making possible the recla-
nation of 100000 acres more or less
u arid land in the Columbia river

eectricty operated pumps taking
water from the river.

BUILD No CHARTER WALL
AROUND PEOPLES LIBERTY

Editor Every Evening: We seek per
mission OF Every Evening TO discuss
few problems on charter making and
invite the attention Of legislators. law
yers and educators Wilmington IS n
part of the State and TO prove II quick
ly we cite a most. terse statement from
the Supreme Court Of Ohio in 1912 as
follows: Cities can no longer be in
closed with stone walls and be separate
and apart from the State. In this
case il was also said that city is but
an agency of the State and a part Of
its government" This is but state
ment of universal law.
The State is "a republic with three
departments, and can rule IN no other
way. What part is so ruled? The
whole or half OF IT. Every part of II.
For what purpose does il confer city
charter To take one half the people
from under the rule OF the constitu-
ton? II cannot evade the constitu-
tion, but must make its agency rule
only in conformity with the Supreme
law II is rational to say. as the State
can rule only by tho separate depart
ments, therefore II can cast no part
Of its ruling power on its city agent"
except IN strict accordance with its
own powers. 1 ne agent cannot ne
clothed with power not inherent I'll tho
principal
We now get 10 the unassailahle, inn
pregnable position that city charter
must be- strictly patterned after the
theory that governs the State. If the
state IS Republican IL must he Repub-
lican throughout No matter what
other states may have done or what
Western supreme Courts may have
said about commission rule. they
could be III error. OF controlled
by language Of theil constitutions
or influenced by some distorted
populistic sentiment. IN Delaware
where half the people are in one
city. there is no place for falacy OF
socialistic visions. The liberty Of half
the State is as sacred as that of the
whole State. There should be no split
liberty!
Delaware became a Republic when il
drove out king, Parliament and despot-
ism. 1t was the first TO ratify the con-
stitution and should be the last to
throw down free government. The
whole people are entitled To freedom,
perpetual freedom.
What gives this freedom? Nothing
but complete rule by three departments.
Rule concentrated in one department.
or in two would be tyranny or dcspot-
ism. There never was complete free
