WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-Uncle Joe Cannon, the oldest member of the House of Representatives announced today that he would not be a candi- date for reelection to Congress.

TAYLOR MURDER
 STILL BATTLES 1. A. AUTHORITIES
MARY MILES MlNTER EuLOGIZES LIFE OF MURDERED LOS
 ANGELES DIRECTOR

LOS ANGELES, Feb. IA. Mary Miles Minter issued a statement thru her attorneys today setting forth the life of William Desmond Taylor who was murdered at his home here a few days ago. Miss Minter declared that she could not conceive any motive which would prompt any person to vol untarily do him harm.
 She further stated that there was no personal or financial sacrifice she would not gladly make to bring the murderer to justice. She said, "He was my one best friend until his death. He was to me a symbol of man. liness and honor, an inspiration, a friend, a guide and a counsellor. He was a symbol of all that girl admires in a man."
 The police are as much at sea as eyer in fastening upon a clue that will reveal the murderer. Special de- tectives have been at work and every possible clue is being run down.
 Charges have been made that the police are being interfered with in their operations by powerful motion picture interests Letters and other bits of evidence are being withheld from the police and other obstacles thrown in their way.
 The strongest theory is that there is a woman in the case. The police are making full inquiry into the life of Taylor and all his personal friends are being summoned to answer ques- tions. Mable Normand and Mary Miles Minter have both been sweet hearts of Taylor, and his relations with these two famous movie stars is being closely investigated. It is be- lieved that he might easily have been killed by some jealous lover of either of these two women.

TACOMA IS MUCH INTERESTED IN PROJECT AS IT WOULD
 SWELL VOLUME BUSINESS

TACOMA, Feb. 14.-Confdential in- formation from Washington indicates that proposals are being seriously con sidered for transferring the first and second divisions from Camp Dix and Camp Travis to Camp Lewis with the abandonment of all wartime canton ments except Camp Lewis and the ere ation there of the largest military base in the country.
 While nothing official or definite has been given out on this subject it is said that the official announcement of such plans may be expected within ten days or two weeks.
 Tacoma is much interested in the proposal as it would mean the return of the business enjoyed during the war months and which has been miss ed since Camp Lewis was virtually closed.

Many industries heretofore consid- cred dormant possibilities have reared a lucrative crest into the world of commerce since it is an assured fact that the steel trail has been connected from tidewater to the streams of the interior. where steamers down the sal mon trails, are the ganglings of the great arachnoid of commercial distri- button.
 Veteran vendors of the vernal wales will arbitrate for agriculture while the garnerer of the pisces tribes advocate more easy terms, through the merce- nary channels for the handling of their production, while the merchant seeks to create market for his wares. All these are seeking to build an em- pire and plead with fate for more ia vorable conditions.
 The Interior has, for many years, suffered from Hige Rateitis, and the physicians unlike that professions knights in literal sense-are unwill- ing to use the lance to cauterize the venomous sting of H. c. L.
 But the railroad will solve the prob lem and already the sword of price de capitation has been yielded by con servative merchants of the Interior.
 Blaine's reciprocity treated subjects domestic as well as the more academ- ic and economic problems of National welfare, i. e., to patronage home indus tries and consume home grown prod ucts first, then swap the residue with Europe for pie and puddin', and would it not be well for us at the Gateway to glance over that illustrious tome when we contemplate making pur- chases to keep the Home Fires Burn ing?
 Tn the issue of the Oregonian for January 15, current year, we read at some length an article on logs and lumber and we find that deadlock ex- ists between the two factions-the most necessary producers needed to build city or home-and, according to it's views there is little hope of a compromise, at least, not in the near future.
 This act portends high prices in lunn. Der, and the builder who purchases his material from the States will receive the vice versa benefit (the vice, per haps, without the versa) in the way oi

 Seward is about to enter upon a prosperous era, and there is TO doubt but what it will surpass anything ever dreamed of in cycles past. Property valuations will soar amid the ethereal dreams, when once this dream is real ized. The Interior is practically void of timber as compared to the coast grown and growing forests, when one takes into consideration the cost of production and the high price of sup plies in the Interior that must need be transported to the remote fields of endeavor, has in recent years, enhanc- ed the price of that product until the price is prohibitive.
 Some small timber still remains in the Interior, but in remote places. Square, building material can be cut from the various forests, but the cost of either driving the logs along the course of some inland stream or haul ing by horses. places the cost of de- livery far beyond the reach of, the contractor, and this will re.ard build ing; building will retard industry, and

EFFORTS TO EXTEND PERIOD OF MANUFACTURE OF INITIATES
 TO CENTURY, FAIL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-House leaders and military men failed today to obtain a pledge from Henry Ford that fertilizer would be manufactured at No. Two plant, Muscle Shoals, for a period of one hundred years. The original offer under which Henry Ford has agreed to purchase the plant calls for a period of activity until the death of Ford when the plant would revert to the government for the people, in stead of passing to his heirs,
 W. B. Mayo appeared before the com mittee as a representative of Ford, de- clared that Ford had refused to modify his original offer in any man ner
 NEW YORK, Feb 14-Muscle Shoals is tne greatest hope of the entire South, part of the east, certain ben eft to the entire nation in peace and assurance of national security in time of war.
 At a point in Northern Alabama a few miles from the Tennessee line, are Florence and Sheffield, two small cities; about three mics west is Iusa cumba. The three have combined population of but 10000. At this point the Tennessee River, formed by the confluence of the French, Broad and Holston rivers in Tennessee flows to the northwest, where it empties into the Ohio at Paducah.
 Between Sheffield and Florence the river has cut deep into it's banks. Its bed for 35 miles is solid rock and in this distance is a fall of nearly 15O feet.
 This is Muscle Shoals.
 Not until the United States was in the midst of the World War and has tily needed an immense explosive manufacturing plant were efforts TOT the development of Muscle Shoals sue cessful. Quickly the government ap' propriated twenty million dollars for construction of a dam across the Ten nessee river at Muscle Shoals. This is now known as the Wilson dam in honor fthe president. It was to fur nish power for a great nitrate plant for manufacturing explosives. Last June, with the dam One-third complet

HARDING OPPOSES METHODS ID RAISE
 SOLDIER BONUS
PRESIDENT OPPOSES SPECIAL TAX OR BOND ISSUE TO
 RAISE BONUS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-An official statement was issued from the White House today declaring that President Harding was unalterabiy opposed to the enactment of special taxes to fin ance the soldier bonus or the return to taxes that have already been re- uealed. It is understood that this state ment coupled with the public opposl- tion that has developed by the special tax suggested will prevent the passage of any extra tax to raise the necessary mony to defray the bonus to be paid
 so1diors Y
 The President also indicated that it wasdoubtful whether the necessary sum could be raised by bond issue without advancing interest rates ana destroying the financial tranquility ot the country.
 The Administration desires it to be understood that it remains favorable to the bonus but must persist in the attitude that some sane and sensible means must be found for the fulfill naent of the promise of soldier bonus without disturbing the desired return to financial stability toward which the country is struggling.
 The attitude of the Administration places the soldier bonus in queer po- 'sition. Secretary Mellon declares that no money can be taken from the treas nry. The President declares that no special tax shall be passed or bonds issued. The only remaining method is to apply the payments of the foreign debt toward the bonus payments. It is possible that some such method will be devised.

Few people know the benefits to be realized by Seward in the near future when construction of the proposed pulp and paper mill on Resurrection Bay is begun.
 MT. Frank L.

It is estimated that 1900 horsepower can be developed by placing a dam near Schooner bend This is the minimum power to be developed for the estlma- tion is made on the basis of water flowing in the months of December and January.
 The direct benefits of this power project alone will be great for Seward. If will mean that there will be suffi- cient power for other industrial pur- poses and at rate that will be en- couragement for other industries to To- cate here.

The payroll of the employees of the pulp industry alone will be suffi- cient to make this thriving commu- nity.

ATTEMPT FAILS TO MODIFY ORIGINAL MUSCLE SHOALS PROPOSITION

ed at cost of $17,0O0,00O, work on it ceased
 For the location of this plan the government secured reservation of 1700 acres. Then began building of nitrate plant No. Two across the river from Florence, the most costly of the war undertakings at Muscle Shoals. This plant cost approximately $75,000- 900. It extends over 2200 acres. No. Two plant has a capacity of 300 tons of ammonium nitrate day
 Spend s11o,ooo,ooo
 The government spent a total of approximately $110,O0O,OO0 on the en- tire Muscle Shoals project Investiga- tion of the entire undertaking has as yet failed to show graft or misuse of government funds. Last June, except for force of 175 men guarding the property, the government ceased in- teTest in Muscle Shoals. It was closed down. This is the status of Muscle Shoals today.
 Realization of the immense possia bilities of the plan when finally com pleted has led to several offers to the government for the property. None of these, excepting that of Henry Ford, has been of nature sufficiently busi- nesslike to interest the War Depart ment.
 Ford has offered to buy the nitrate plants for $5,000,000; to pay the in- terest on nearly $30,00O,0O0 in prop erty and amortize the debt for 100 years He further offers to lease Will son Dam and Dam No. 3 on comple- tion for the manufacture of fertilizers for 100 years. Ford's proposition is based on the estimate of his engineers that remaining work will cost s42,000- GOO. Army engineers say this cost would be $5S,oOo,OOO.
 It is this difference or $ll,00O,UU0 that is causing Secretary Weeks to delay action. As matters stand Ford must increase his offer or Congress must approve a compromise deal.
 A Fourfo.d Proposition
 Muscle Shoals is fourfold propo- sition:
 First, it's completion means the erec- tion in the Southern States of water power plant second only to Niagara Falls and the establishment of an in- dustrial and agricultural area which will equal any in America.
 Secondly, Muscle Shoals means op- eration in peace time of fertilizer plant that may revolutionize farming ing in the South and East.
 Third in importance will be the long sought opening for navigation of the Tennessee river connecting the South east with Mississippi aVlley naviga' tion system.

 MURDER, SUICIDE

A double tragedy, in which an en- ragged husband shot and killed his wife and then committed suicide, oc- cured last Tuesday at small ranch three miles from Santa Rita. The victims were MT. and Mrs. Saniago Martinez.
 The couple had quarreled the night preceding the shooting, and the next morning, ;ollowing breakfast. Mrs. Martinez informed her husband she was going,tto leave him, and began to . pack up her few belongings.
 The enraged husband, stepping into an adjoining room, seized Win chester and, before his wife realized what he was about to do, he shot her, the bullet entering her lefk breast near the heart, causing almost instant death. Martinez chen sent bullet ino his brain, dying instantly. . The tragedy occurred in the pres ence of three children of Martinez who were in the house at the time they testified as to the facts at the coroners inquest held before Justice of the Peace Jesse l.. Turner.-Silvei City Independent.
