NEW NATIONAL PARK
PROJECT FOR CONVERTING THE
SPOT ABOUT LOFTY MOUNT RAINIER.
Senator Squire Presents n Memorial
to Congress with a View to Fur
therinG the Enterprise.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator Squire,
Of Washington. has presented a memorial
to Congress for a national park on the
Pacific, surrounding the celebrated Mount
Rainier, near Puget sound. A large num-
Der of eminent scientists are interested in
this proposed park, and have assited in
preparing the memorial and given a cor
dial Endorsement TO the plan. The project
has been quite carefully considered in all
it's details. 1t is proposed to make a ma
tional park of what is now known as the
Pacific forest reserves. 1t is intended TO
utilize such portions of this re-
serve, with all the natural curios-
tiles of the regions around the great
mountain, including eight glacier forma-
tons. In presenting the memorial to the
Senate Senator Squire said that Mount
Rainier is II. 100 feet high. 1t is superb in
it's boldness, rising from one canyon 1000
feet in seven miles. On this mountain
there is a colony of Arctic animals as
effectually isolated from other animals
and plants as are shipwrecked sailors on
an island in midocean separated from the
rest of humanity. 1t is important to pre-
serve this rare colony of Arctic fauna and
fora.
The proposed national park has magnifi-
cent forests, which, like all those of the
Puget sound region, are world-renowned
for the magnificence and beauty of their
hemlOcks, cedarS and firS, trees colossal
in size and valuable as regulators of
floods, as under their protection SHOWS
melt slowly and thus prevent devastation
of valleys. They are valuable as water
preserVeTSs for the irrigation of the plains
below. He also quoted from a report of
German geOlogist Settle, and from a book
by Prof. James Bryce. on the picturesque
beauty and curious formations about
Mount Rainier. Both of these men say
that, like the Yosemite and the upper yell
lowstone, the region should be preserved
as 2 nationl park. Senator Squire also
quoted from ex-senator Edmunds, in hon.
or of whom one of the glaciers is named,
who says:
Il never believed there was anything in
America comparable in grandeur TO the see
merry. . / have been through the Swiss
mountains, and / am compelled to own
that, incredible as the assertion may APP
pear. there is absolutely no comparison
between the finest effects that are exhib-
tied there and what is seen approaching
this grand isolated mountain. l would be
willing to go five hundred miles again TO
see that scene. This continent is yet in
ignorance Of the existence or what Will
be one of the %grandest show places as well
as a sanatOrium.
Under the law by which this tract is now
reserved it cannot be entered on by any
United States, but the object of the sci
entific men who prepared the memorial is
to have "A national park in which the gov
eminent may prevent the destruction Of
timber and the natural features may re-
main undiStuTbed.

BRAZIL. Ind, July 9.-One OF the
greatest labor demonstrations ever held
in the city came off tonight. Elaborate
preparations were made for the arriva, OF
Eugene Debs, who was announced as the
speaker. He reached the city from Terre
Haute at $40 O'Clock, over the Nandalia,
accompanied by his wife and sister-in-law.
The party was met at the train by an i'm
mense crowd and a band. From the depot
the procession formed in line and marched
east on Main street to the Hendrix House.
where the party was lodged. Just following
the carriage containing the Debs party
a band of little girls. all attired in white.
marched in line, carrying a banner on
which was the following:
Are in Sympathy with Organized
Labor"
When the hotel was reached a number
of citizens, both men and women, called on
the great labor leader. and grasped his
hands. After refreshments the Debs party
was given the front parlors of the hotel,
where all spent an hour or so before going
TO the ground, just west of the hotel, where
the speaking was held. The speakers
stand was deliberately decorated with flow
ers and bunting. Mr.. Debs vas greeted
with an audience numbering at least six
thousand people, which loudly cheered him
at frequent intervals. One conspicuous fea-
ture of the parade was that only a very
few buSiL eSS men participated.

CHURCHILL,s COMPLIMENT.
A $1,000 Baby Carriage for the Duke
of York's Infant Son..


PnllauelpIld IItSS.
There is one graceful thing which can be
laid at the door Of Lord Randolph Church
III on the occasion of his stay In New York,
assuming that graceful things are laid at
PEOPLES doors. He took occasion to find
out what ii would cost him TO have built
here a fine coach, which We're II most
modest. would be styled a baby carriage.
He means to have one built after a very
elaborate design, and TO present 1t with
his compliments TO the new heir TO, the
throne of England-the son OF the Duke
of York. The carriage, when completed,
will cost his Lordship at least $4,000. and is
the most expensive thing In its way that
has ever been put together. When IL VIII
be built is an undetermined matter, but
the designs sent to Lord Churchlll VIII
one of them much impressed the would
be donor and consisted of a canopy, not
unlike the hangings over royal beds, with
high wheels, and instead OF handles for II
to be wheeled along, 1t had clasps at tne
side. The furnishings of the vehicle are
TO be of the most elaborate description, and
il is hardly likely that the affair will be
completed for some time TO come.
Another design is for what may De termed
a royal cradle, and ii is possible that that,
too. may catch the fancy of the British
ar;stocrat. At any rate, il shows that ne
thinks New York can do something in that
line when he requests the tradesmen here
TO see what they can let him have.
1t requires some peculiar procedure to
have these gifts accepted in the name OF
ROYAL infants. Were not Lord Randolph
Churchill a personal friend of royalty IL
would not be received at all, but, as II is,
doubt. sleep peacefully in time beneath the
elaborate s"uperStructure or the tapestry.
For the coach is not merely for the babe
TO ride in. but to slumber in as well. and
he can be moved about even In the arms OF
