C0NFEREES CUT
SUPPLY BILL
S75O,0OO

Immediate passage of the 1888
District appropriation bill was
assured today after an amicable
agreement by Senate and House
conferees, under which approx
mately S750,000 was cut from the
Senate increases.
With the Seate conferees
yielding on many points to tighten
the tax burden on Washington
ians, the conference cut the APP
preparation as passed by the Sen
ate to approximately S45,750,000.
Passage of the bill before the
end of the fiscal year, June 80,
was assured by the prompt action
of the conferees.
Bridge Fund Dropped
The principal item stricken
from the bill was $325,0oo added
by the Senate to begin construc-
ton of a 100000 Pennsylvania
Avenue bridge in AnacoStia. The
conferees provided $4,000 for
maintenance of the present bridge
instead of the $4,000 allowed by
the House for repairs.
Transfer of the tuberculosis
Sanitoriam and Gallinger Hospital
from the welfare to the Health De
partment was approved, although
the conferees accepted the de-
cision of the Senate against trans
fer Of supervision of school play
grounds to the community center.
1t was agreed, however, that the
District Commissioners would be
instructed to draft plan for con-
Solidating all recreational facil-
tiles.
A ban against reallocation of
salaries of local employees to pro-
vide pay increases, as passed by
the House and refused by the Sen
ate, was restored to the bill, with
Senate amendment raising the
minimum under which it would be
applicable from $4,000 to $4,000.
School Teachers Aided
The conferees struck out a House
proviso that school teachers might
not perform clerical duties outside
the classroom, but agreed to an
other House provision that the
average salaries of school libra
rianS should not exceed that of
public library employees in the
same grade.
Certain school increases were
stricken out by the conferees, but
money was provided for 54 addi-
tional teachers.
Dropping their plan for a system
of boarding houses, the House
yielded to the Senate in retaining
the Chil6ren's Receiving Home. In
creaSeS were allowed for the work
house and reformatory, the Ma
tional Training School for Girls
and the Industrial Home School
for Colored Children.

Describes Origin
Of Moses Cou|ee
(By Frank McCann)

i nave D0eH asked a OF
times by different visitors, sapw
that an explanation of the past. his
tory of Grand Coulee has been CIV
en-, what about Moses Coulee?
What caused it? This ia a perth
ent question, because it belongs
with all the associated phenomena
of the Grand Cou1ee.
Moses Cou1ee is much older than
Grand Coulee. Like Crab creek. 1t
was a p%re-glacial drainage chan
mel. 1t drained all the central and
Northern portion of Douglas Ii
ty during the elapsed time between
the last of the Basaltic overflows
and the coming of the Great Ice
Age. This is indicated by the deep
canyons on it's sidewalks, some of
which come one-half to two-thirds
of the way down, with gabled
walls in, between.
You will notice too that Grand
Coulee has hanging valleys, but
they are hanging high up on the
top walls. They could not keep up
with the main flood stream and
were left hanging high.
However. the ice age did greatly
widen and deepen Moses Coulee,
as 1t received all the flood waters
from the great terminal moraine
of north Douglas county. The NOR
aine was the terminal of the great
Okanogan, Ice Lobe of the cordel-
erian ice shee, and the deposits of
this moraine have submerged the
original head Of Moses Coulee.
The submerEence can be seer ON
the highway between Coulee City
and Mansfield.
There are many interesting
sights to be seen in Moses Coulae.
Where the Sunset highway, or
federal road No. 10, crosses Moses
Coulee there is q splendid example
of a Fosse, which Is caused by a
minor stream coming in contact
with a major stream and building
a gravel channel bar at right ang-
les across the mouth of the gully
canyon that intersects at this
point, the bar being longitudinal
with the major stream.
Lower down the coulee passes
through a sag and then cuts
through Badger mountain anti
cline after dripping over the three
devils. Moses Coulee instead of
having a single drop like the
Grand Coulee at Dry Falls, has
The three devils-that is, a series
of three drops. Below this point
you encounter lower Moses Coulee
proper, and from here down for
twenty miles to the Columbia riv-
err the coulee is picturesque and
interesting, high gabled walls ON
side.
Moses creek comes into the o u
lee from the east side of Badger
mountain and has formed here a
