Besides, many stamps are lost or de-
stroyed entirely, and the government
makes clear gain.
The other source of loss to the in
diyidual by which the government
profits is the number of stamps that
are wasted in excess. postage. People
who have not Sfve.cent stamp put
three two-cents stamps on foreign let
ters, thus making the department a
present Of one cent. Domestic mail,
too, is frequently over stamped.
Enough money is wasted in this way
to provide thousands of inexpensive
letter scales. Every one who mails
many letters should have scales on his
table.
People are misled by the size of
things If theysssend anything in a
large envelope, they think they must
put on two two; cent stamps. It takes
a pretty fat letter to weigh more than
an ounce. s..:.a.: s.ss..- s.:.s. ..aa.Es .,.sss.
Moreover, few people know any
thing about the rates for newspapers.
and think that because a newspaper
rolls into5a solid bundle it costs a
great deal to send. So they go on
oyerpaying the postage.
On the other hand, much matter is
underpaid. Here the government
loses nothing, for the shortage is col
lected from the receiver, who must
pay the due stamp. Knowing this,
and being anxious not to seem Mig
gardly to the friend who must make
up any deficiency in postage, a person
in doubt often puts too many stamps
on fourth rate matter and on extra
fat letters, and Uncle Sam gets the
difference

ACROSS WASHINGTON
President Reaches the Beau
 tiful Yakima Valley.
GARDEN OF EDEN WAS BARREN WASTE
Irrigation the Great Benefactor--Na- tionaI Reservoirs Will Be Con- structed to Tap the CoIum-
 bia and Snake Rivers.

PASCO, Wash, May 26.-The presi- night over the Northern Pacific rail way, glided down the beautiful Yakl- ma valley into Clellum, where the first speech of the day was made to thou sand coal miners who had come down from Roslyn. At North Yakima the president spoke on irrigation to large audience. He dwelt here on the impor- tance of irrigating and of the approval of the acts of the last session of con- gross. A feature of the crowd here was the presence of thous2nds of Indians from the Yakima reservation. At El- lensburg the president spoke fifteen minutes on good citizenship to 5000 people. First of all he said:
 "Let me greet those whom I know others will not grudge my specially greeting, men of the Grand Army and the representatives of those who did even more than the men of the civil war, the women, for, while the men went to battle, to the women fell the hardest task of seeing husband or lov- CT, father or brother, going to the war, she herself having to stay behind with the load of doubt, anxiety and uncer- tainty and often the difficulty of mak ing both ends meet in the household while the breadwinner was away
 The president asked that Captain Steinman of the First Washington reg iment be presented to him at the close of the speech. While speaking he re- ferred to Steinman's company having been the severest sufferer among the volunteers in the Philippine campaign. When Steinman was introduced the president grasped his hand and said warmly:
 Captain, know all about you and your company. Your company was crackajack, and I am mighty glad to meet you and to know you.''
 The presidential party arrived in Pas co at 2:05 p. m. and were greeted by crowd of about 750 The president made general talk on irrigation, stat ing that through the assistance of the national irrigation act all the so called barren wastes, including that surround ing Pasco, would undoubtedly be irri- gated, that national reservoirs would be constructed to conserve the supply of water now going to waste in the Go lumbia and Snake rivers and the bar ren waste would be changed to a yer ttable garden of Eden

1GCEIME TOT OSl0UEhLAOAAs
 A meeting of those interested in the movement of providing fitting cele- bration for Independence day was held last evening in the court room The fol- lowing have or can without a doubt collect the following amounts: w. H. Freeman, $100; F. H. Judd, $1S7; Her man ReIn, $25; w. Kelleher, $15; Da- vid Kuhn, $14; Henry Jackman, SIS; RudveIt Emeis, $9. There are also sev- eral others who have not made reports. NJ. F. OsConnell, chairman of the fi- nance committee, said that if everyone gave little $1, GOO could be raised. w. H. Minor, on music, will have chorus of 400 children, 200 from St Francis school and 200 from the public schools. There was considerable discussion as to how to make the day one long to be remembered and 1t Is very evident that those in charge of the movement in tend to make 1t so. There will be an other meeting next Monday night. So every public spirited citizen turn out and lend hand to the good work.
 The board of warden and burgesses will hold a meeting this evening in the court room.
 John Carey, Francis Collins and Patrick Crotty, the young men who tried to clean out the candy kitchen Saturday night undoubtedly repent their rash net to-day. It cost them something like $50 to get out of it. They were obliged to give MT Manikas $50 for damage done to his property and were fined $926 each by the court. yVfIfuI daSfrunfion If nrornl-tv and yJTl- gar language don't help a young man along in the world and not in this bor- Ough especially.

working for wages on that day.
The justice considered the matter

therefore imposed upon him a
similar penalty. 1t will be inter-
