II Seems So In Europe, While Ours Are
Growing Warmer.
1t is often asked, regarding the sea-
sons, whether they alter from year to
year, whether there is positive change
in climate from century to century.
The general opinion seems to be, ac-
cording to the New York Press, that
tho springs and summers are cooler
than they once We're. and that the win
ters are less cold.
The records of thermometrical obser-
vations show that the temperature of
tho month of May is diminishing, but
that the temperature of the year, taken
together, rather tends to increase.
Taking into consideration q period of
fifty or sixty more years, there has been
observed IN actual diminution of the
mean temperature in the climate of
Franco. But observing q longer period
comparing, for example, tho earliest
centuries of French history with the
present time-no sensible difference of
tho seasons can be established.
For example, the Roman emperor,
Julian, was very fond of living at Paris,
and about A. D. 800 he made several
long sojourns in that city. In his Mis-
opogon he relates that he was greatly
surprised one fine morning to see the
Seine stopped in Its course and its
waters changed into blocks of marble.
So we see that there was ut that time,
as well as to-day, winters severe enough
to freeze tho rivers, and that the eli
mate has not changed much If any.
Perhaps the men of the present time
have more sensitive epidermis than
had their hardy ancestors.

MEXICO NEEDS IMMIGRANTS.
Psspis Frsna Eorthera Europe Would Set
: Valuable Example of Thrift.

PsSpis Frsna EGrthern Rurspe Would Set
Valuable Example of Thrift
There is n rumor to the effect that an
effort will be made in Mexico to turn
the current of European emigration
from the United States to that coun-
try. i here is room in Mexico for many
more people, but it is by no means as
sparsely inhabited u country us many
Americans think, says the Denver Re
publican. In area it is about one-fourth
as great as the United States. Its pop
ulation is $4,000, 900. The same density
in the United States would give this
country about 4S,000,0 900, which is but
1900, 900 less than the census of 1880
showed our population to be in that
year.
Mexico needs different kind of
population, rather than an increase.
About One-ha1f the people are full
bloOded Indians, and of these one-half
are uncivilized. There nre about 1, 0OO,-
900 whites, the majority of whom, of
course, are of Spanish descent. The
remainder, with the exception of few
negroes and Chinese, are of mixed
blood Probably 100000 of the in
habitants have Indian blood in their
veins, two-thirds of this number being
full blood. The hope of the country is,
therefore, in the people who have In
dian blood. If they shall not develop
to high civilization the country will
always be governed by small class,
composed chiefly of the whites.
Fortunately the civilized Indians of
full blood are quiet, orderly people,
capable of performing great deal of
labor and attaining to proficiency in the
mechanic arts. Juarez, one of the
greatest of Mexican statesmen and gem
erals, was full-blood. The hybrIds,
like hybrids generally, are worse than
| their paren is of either stock and have
caused a great deal of trouble. Immi-
| grafton of n good class from northern
Europe would do Mexico good, because
the immigrants would set an example
| of industry and thrift to the natives.
But there is not much inducement for
| immigrants of the laboring, mechanic
or agricultural classes to settle in Mex
| leo. The demand for labor does not
equal the supply, and the farmers would
find but poor markets for their prod
ucts. Mexico is a good country for men
with money to invest in mining and
other industries requiring large capital
but to immigrants without means the
| Geld is not inviting.

paint from Consiguees.

Fifteen carloads OF fruits and vegetables
were shipped from this point since Mon
day Of this week. Added to this vast
quantity of produce was shipped during
the same time by local firms.
The l. Y. l.. Co. has Just shipped to
its Tacoma wholesale house 200 crates
oil musk melons. II ships so boxes Of
apples per day. Last week 1t consigned
three carloads Of watermelons to Tacoma.
+. Craig 4 Son have shipped about 20
boxes of peaches and plums to Tacoma

II. Rosenfelt has shipped 400 boxes OF
fruits and vegetables so far this season.
The greater part OF his shipments has
been consigned TO dealers on the line be-
tween here and the Sound. lie shipped
a carload Of melons to Roslyn today.
G. W. Luther has shipped so boxes Of
peaches, 10 sacks Of potatoes and few
boxes Of apples east and west.
r. Sampson shipped carload Of
melons, fruits and vegetables to Sound
points this week.
We were unable to obtain figures from
other extensive dealers this week, but
their consignments would add very
considerable quantity to the above figures.
Many letters are received from dealers,
large and small, on the Sound, expressing
their preference for Yakima fruits and
vegetables and stating that they are rap
idly displacing California and Oregon
products. But they make one complaint
and it is important to growers to note !,
carefully. They insist that much Of the
fruit is not properly packed. 1t 10
handled roughly and is, therefore, bruised
and in bad condition when it reaches it's
destination. Then the packing is poorly
done. These defects should be speedily
remedied, as all interested will agree
The fruits and vegetables should be very
carefully handled from the beginning Of
the harvest until they are delivered in the
cars. Experienced packers should super
intend the work, until the grower and his
help are thoroughly familiar with the
details of the task.

MARSHAL mcguire At WORK.
Tie Arrests Two Leading offenders
In This Section.

Deputy United States Marshal Mcguire
evidently means business. He this week
made an admirable beginning in that d.
rection. On Wednesday he arrested
notorious John Breen, the leader OF the
gang in this section that sells whiskey to
Indians. Breen is an old offender, hav.
ing recently served six. months term
for similar offense. He is bold, burly.
brutal fellow, over six feet tw, with his
bots off. His case will be heard before
U. 8. Commissioner Henton tomorrow.
On Thursday morning Deputy Mcguire,
assisted by Deputy Sheriff Dilley, arrested
another notorious offender in the person
OF Samuel Quetnet, hali-breed about 20
years old. He stole cattle from the reser-
walton and tried to sell them in Yakima.
He was given hearing before Commits
sioner S. G. Henton this afternoon and
bound over to the United States court in
the sum of $3.50.
Deputy Marshal Mcguire has made a
vigorous beginning and the people Of this
section who have 80 long been menaced
with the presence of these two desperate
ring'leaders will heartily applaud his
effort. He says. by the way, that The
Republics statement that offenders are
usually fined only $40 for the first trans
gression is ERRONEOUS; that Judge Han
ford invariably gives them six months in
the penltentiary.
notwithstanding the dilatoriness of
the department in remunerating its mar
shals, Deputy Mcguire assures US that no
offender shall enjoy immunity from pun
ishment for his mischief in this particu-
lar district while he is here with author
ity to srrest and the privilege to help to
punish him. And it looks like he means
it, too.
