The Senate paused in its routine
business today to pay tribute to the
"youthfulness" of its presiding officer,

leader. joined in the expressions Of
high regard.
He has always been able to see and
recognize Republicans when they
arise, Mr.. McNary said. Recalling
they had served together in the House,
Senator Byrnes said he believed the
Vice President had been happier there
because he could speak on as we'll as

COULEE DAM BARS SPAWNING SALMON FROM UPPER COLUMBIA

Grand Coulee Dam, Che largest structure ever built by man, now under construction in eastern Wash ington, will permanently bar spawn ing salmon from the upper Columbia River, Pacific Fisherman states.
 Use of fish ladders or lifts at the Grand Coulee has been declared i'm practical because although it might be possible to lift the adult fish over tue barrier, there is 10 known meth ou of safely getting the ocean bound salmon down stream past the dam.
 Approximately One-third of the Columbia River salmon run normal ly spawns in the upper ColumCla aDove the dam. This part of the run IS considered the most valuable, how ever, as it IS made up largely of Col umDIa River Chinooks. salmon can ners point out that the greater tue distance the fish have to go to reach the spawning ground the oct ter the quality, because they store up more oil and tat in advance of their spawning migration.
 States Cooperate
 Salmon industry authorities point out that the efforts to divert part of this run to spawning grounds De- low the Coulee may preserve pat of this valuable run. The states Of Washington and Oregon are coopet- ating with army engineers and feder al authorities Ill the work of pro tectlng and improving spawning grounds below the dams which ..re not now fully utilized. A great deal of work is being done to keep the salmon from becoming lost in orch ard irrigation ditches and similar unfaVOrable areas. If the salmon are diverted to streams nearer the mouth of the river, it is feared by many canners that the quality of the aal- mon run will deteriOrate.
 Gigantic Experiment
 Grand Coulee Dam IS not the only threat to future Columbia River runs The Bonneville Dam, lower down oh the river, is the scene Of a gigantic experiment in furnishing artificial aids for salmon ascending and de scending the Columbia.
 Temporary fish ladders are already in operation and permanent instaila' tions are expected to be ready tol the 1888 run. Experts are diVidac as to the efficiency of the Bonneville arrangements. Principal criticism oi the temporary plan for handling this years run is being leyeled at the lack of adequate means of attracting the salmon into the fish ladders.

that we will brook no further In- terference or criticism from Mr Chisholm"
 The immediate cause of Mr. Kirt- lands sharp attack on the clerk was the building of the addition to the school gymnasium to house a new heating system. The clerk, it was claimed, sent word to the school house to tell Martindale to come down and do the cement work on the addition. The janitor could not leave then but said he would come within a few days. MT. Chisholm then called up Mr. Kirtland and said he could not get the cooperation ex- pected from the janitor and other arrangements should be made.
 Kirtland and Chisholm then ax- changed a few sharp words before the discussion was abrubtly term mated.
 As the meeting was drawing to a close, and motion for adjourn ment about to be proposed, the clerk said he wished to withdraw from supervision of the gym addition.
 As to the charge of interference in. school matters, he reminded the council that before they approved the school budget they had instruct ed him to ascertain salaries paid ianitors and school board clerks in other towns. That later he had re- ported his findings; no other school of WrangelPs classification paid as high salaries as Wrangell is paying the janitOr at $500 a year and the schoolboard clerk at $50 a month.
 It was brought out that after the estimates of $1550 for a new heat ing plant had been received, the council had reluctantly decided to drop the matter, but that MT. Chis, holm had written to the Montag company and after cOnferring with Supt. Fabricius and MT. Martindale. the latter, on his own initiative, of fered to build the chimney and lay the concrete floor, asking only that carpenter make the forms. With MT. Chisholm taking the respOnsi- bility of installation of the plant and MT. Martindale doing concrete work, the costs were reduced tC $439.60 and the council authorized the work 9n that basis.
 , MT. Chisholm told the council that when he deplored the appearance oi the school grounds he did so as g citizen, and that, personally, lf knew of no one who was satisfied with the brush and trash setting of the towns beautiful school build ing.

John Barrymore yacht Infanta on which he and his former wife, Dolores Costello, made several trips to southeastern Alaska, was knocked down in federal bankruptcy court at San Francisco last week, when E. P. Lawson, New York manufacturers bought it for $775OO. The yacht, on which Barrymore made cruise Cf Caribbean waters with his present wife Elaine Barrie, before their mar riage, was built eight years ago at a cost of $150,O00. Alvin Frank, Se- attle broker opened bidding with an offer of $4O,0O0. His last bid was $75,OO0. A mortgage of $40,O00 and an income tax lien of $35,000 will have to be satisfied out of the sale price, which leaves little cash for Barrymore.

 Sewer Conditions
 The report that the sewer in the Patenaude building, occupied on both floors since early spring, had never been connected with the trunk sewer and that sewage had filled up under the building and piled up oil the adjoining vacant lot, drew ln- stant attention.
 Discussion revealed that sewer connections must be made by prop erty owners; that last year when the new trunk sewer was laid on upper Front street, connections Dy the city were laid to the property line and all the property owners paid for hooking up to these con- nections. The Patenaude building W as vacant at that time and notu, ing was done about it's being hook ed up to the new sewer connections.
 Safeguard Public Health
 The question Of who should stand the cost was dismissed for the time, Lloyd being instructed to get a crew of men at work on the sewer the next morning, as a measure Of safeguarding the public health, and determine the cost later to the Pat enaude estate and s. Cunningham, in his rental property back of the building, should be invoIved.
 Bills Ordered Paid
 The finance committee by the city clerk reported bills presented against the light fund for the month of August amounting to $1,912.46 and against the general fund amounting to $1,678.11. The council ordered payment of all claims.
 August receipts in the light de partment were $2,279.67 while gen eral receipts amounted to S5,103.06.
 School Board Protest
 c. P. Kirtland, president of the school board told the council it was his understanding that the school board exercised supervision over the school and it's employees, that the school gymnasium, adjoining the city hall, had been administered by the council, and the school board were quite willing for such arrangement to continue, but as to the school house and grounds MT. KirtlaId wanted to know who was going tC be in authority, the board or tho city clerk; if the clerk, then the board would withdraw.
 He then went into detail charging the clerk with criticizing the janl tor for not taking better care of th, school grounds and interfering il his work in preparing the schoo , building for the opening of school

Treating Symptoms

YUNHE setup of the District government proposed by
Representative Ambrose Kennedy, of Maryland,
after lengthy study is good basis for discussion of
the purely mechanical operation of the cty's admin
stration.
But as proposal for lettering the government of the
community fundamentally by bringing it closer to the
people it is woefuly lacking
When any member of Congress is willing to devote
time and energy to constructive job Washington
affairs we hate to be put in the position
D'0e"Se 10 of looking gift horse in the mouth.
NOt CWeG Nevertheless it must be said that Mr..
Kennedy proposes to treat merely the symptoms of
local governmental failure without getting down to
curing the disease.
The disease is the utter enforcement of the conduct
of the local government from the local people.
Shifting bureaus within the present set-up, adding
an agency here looping off there, may help
and probably will, but Congress will have to 60 deeper
than that if it wants to settle the troubles has with
the District and the troubles which the District has
with Congress.
Some way must be found even if Congress is to pre-
its constitutionay granted prerogave of legs
,,., lating for the city, to bring Congress
1""S 'A'''0 and the people of the city together
10 AF0Oe' The best way to do that in fact the
only way is to set up some kind of effective voting
machinery by which the people can let Congress know
how they feel
This important and vital point is completely neg
lected in Mr.. Kennedy's suggestions.
Possibly he negects it Intentionally, feeling that by
improving the mechanics of the government he will be
making sufficient contribution to the ctys develop
ment.
What the Marylander proposes is undoubtedly step,
md step in the right direction, but there miles
be travelled that he hasn't mapped.

Round
By Helen RouOland

IN these days Of co-educational
l. barber shops, co-educational
bar-rooms and mixed smoking
cars, the only place where a man
can get away from women, and
be alone, is his club.
Nearly every wife is secretly
and subconsciously jealous Of
her husbands club, lodge or
favorite "hang-out," which he
seems to find so much more al
Turing than he does his own
home.
And there's reason for his
divided allegiance. A man can
find a hundred comforts at his
club that he never enjoys at
home.
His club is haven wherein a
man may sit and doze or muse
for hours, undisturbed; where
he can always find someone
with whom to chat when he feels
expansive; where he may be
alone or in company, at will,
and where, if he wants to keep
silent, nobody sniffles and won
ders if his love is dead.
A club is a place where he
is always sure Of a pleasant
greeting the minute he sticks
his head in the door-no matter
what hour it may be: where he
may go to sleep after dinner
or sit up until dawn, without
any fuss being made; where he
may arise with the lark or doze
until noon in peace and tran
quillity, and where no telephones
or kilograms will bother him if
he doesn't want to be disturbed.
There's nobody at the club to
censor a mans appetite or to
tell him that he's smoking too
much. He may eat all the
things that disagree with him,
drink whatever he can afford
to pay for, and sit around with
a crouch all evening, without
anybody complaining or trying
to cheer him up"
