THE COASTw The Engineers Report on the Fro posed Work on the Colombia and Lower Willamette Biters WASUisroTo August The annual report of Mftrjor Jones of the corps 6t engineers in charge of certain improve ments ot the Columbia and lower Willamette nvers below Portland Or which was received to day at the War Department recommends that the ex isting project be earned forward to completion ard that it be extended to emorace the permanent improvement of Walkers island bar at a cost of JX 000 and Martins island bar at a cost of 15 000 and Postomce bar tbe project for which is not yet developed but for the present purpose the cost may be assumed to be JoO 900 A total appropriation of 350 000 is asked for to Include the additional improvements Respecting the Improvement of the Willamette aoove Portland it is considered that by the time the dyke rocs away the trees will have grown sufn cienOy to check the velocity of the water The flood waters will have to pass through heavy growths of trees where they can do little if any harm It was found the best and cheapest to cut down the bank on a low slope with road st rapers and to pile the spoil In a ridge along the crest The Willamette river should be protected from the debris that comes down with the Clackamas by the building of a dyke so laid as to give the Willamette a sufficient width and give the Clackamas the terntory lying north it as a depositing ground This done the channel of the Willamette should be iredged to a depth of eight feet at low water and over a width of ISO feet This would let the tide come through and afford an average increase of about two feet at high water The dyke should be extended so as to regulate the nver opposite Jennings place The old dam should bo entirely remored This will require some blasting and the use of the dredge It is recommended that the app pria ion for snagging operation be ma le permanent so that the snag boat can be held continually in commission It is also recommended that the improvement of tbe road between Tortland and Oregon City be undertaken at once An appropriation of 10 500 is asked for the upper Columbia and Snake rivers flOOJO Is recommended to expend upon the long crossing bar in Snake river for tbe purpose of gaining at least a three foot channel across it andJloOOOO upon the Columbia nver at Priest Rock island and Cabinet Kapids The sum of 2000 is not suifi eiit lor the annual maintenance of a channel in tbe Cowlitz river it should be doubted It is therefore recommended that the project be extended so as to include the river up to Klick itat bndge and that a survey be made at a cost of W00 A permanent ap propnatnn of 23 000 per year is recommended for snagging operations on the Columbia and tributaries this project to re lace the present projects for tbe Willamette above tbe falls at Oregon City and for the Cowlitz nver a MAMTOBA PROJECTS She Hangs Herself Willi Stay Laces Leaving a Dance to End Her Life Yoniijr and Pretty

of the Cabinet as may be in tbe city to roorrbw in relation to the reported seizure of a British vessel in Behmig sea The affair has created very little comment here and there is absolutely no excitement whatever in either army or nary circles because of the warlike news which comes from Ottaw a It is understood that before he left this conntryfor England Sir Julian PauDccfote the Bntish Minister was in consultation with Secretary Blaine in reference to this very matter as well as the Atlantic seaboard fisheries It is asserted thai Sir Julian told the Secretary of State that the Bntish Government is as desirous of preventing the extermination of the fur seals as is tbe American Government but the Bntish are not willing to admit the claim ot the United States that Bearing seals a closed sea The story states further tbat the prime object ot the return of the Brit ish Minister was not as reported to bring his family over although he will bring tbera with him on his return but to secure from the British Home Office the draft ot a new convention covering many of the subjects now in dispute It is owing to this fact undoubtedly that Assistant Secretary Wharton expresses his unqualified belief that tbe reported seizure will not lead to any open rupture A gentleman who was jrtrongly in strnmentalin securing the passage of the bill for the protection of the fur seal industry which is the basL of General Harrisons proclamation of last March admitted frankly to day that he did not beleve at the time he spoke in behalf of the bill on the floor of the House that the United States could maintain its position ot exclusive Jurisdiction over the body of waier known as Behrinjsea He said farther that one of the objects of those who urged the passage of the bill most strenuously was to bring about tome negotiations which would result in an international agreement to protect the breeding grounds and to prevent the slaughter Of female seals He thought

shall go into the Ohio campaign at once I hare every confidence in a decisive Republican victory there next November That includes of course tbe election of Governor iorakerj now serving his second term and the election ol a Republican Legislature I understand that there has been a Sorry of reports and suggestions and rumors especially rumors that Ohio was liable to go Democratic I think ihem all absurd I dont think the Democrats bare either the candidates or the policy to present to the people of Ohio that can win their confidence In other words I dont thmk that the Democrats hare a record to display or a reason to give to gain votes As tor the personal controversies among theBe publican leaders they are all dried up and they wSl not appear agam ex cept in the Democratic newspapers They can do no harm there Is it true as has been stated that you are a candidate for United Slates Senator I hare no money to put np ia a Senatorial campaign and I know noth ing about a campaign in the sense of working a boom and besides I have not the time to spend in personal adventure in tbe political field but I shall do the best I can as a straight Republican to tairty win a straight republican fight If the Republicans of Ohio after the fight is won should think me worthy to be Senator ani that it would seem good for reasons sufhaent to them to prefer me for that office to others certainly others of equal political merit and greater expenence ana ability I shall not antagonize their judgment 1 will accept the ofSce and industri ously and zealouslydiseharge its duties so far as taj competency extends If that constitutes a candidacy I shall not deny that I am a candidate I feel sure of one thine and that is that a Republican will be chosen to succeed Senator Payne and if that Republican should be another besides myself it would not distress me Any way one thing ts ceitain 1 shall not lack occupation I have never been a candidate for any political ofSfe what
