Commercial club recommending that
the celebration be abandoned. This
report will be made to the club at its
next regular meeting to be held
jane IA.
In speaking of the subject this at
ternoon. one of the committee said:
The soliciting committees have put
in many hours circulating the lists,
and while everyone approached SEEM
ed heartily in favor of celebrating, yet
when it came to giving money toward
defraying the expense they were not
willing to contribute but very little.
Most of the business men seemed 10
think that as the city and county had
$3.50 it would be taxing
them double TO make any donation
whatever
The committee had formulated
plans that would have given Walla
WaIla the biggest celebration ever
held in the city, and we regret very
much that we have been compelled to
give it up at this time. 1t costs money
to give a good celebration. and if the
business men of Walla Walla do not
want to assist in a financial way, they
will be the losers in the end

advantage concerning the crops of the
state of Washington this year.
"Walla Walla county for instance
will do itself proud in breadstuffs, and
this means that all previous records
will be broken, the weather man per-
hitting. The wheat crop of Walla
Walla is marketed in Tacoma, or at
least the major portion of it is. so that
the more wheat we produce the better
it is for this city Time was when
most of it went to Portland, but
things have changed, and the gain is
yours Politics and the crops are the
absorbing topics of interest in our
part of the state, as, 1 suppose, in
others. The people who are kicking
politically will be hurrahing before

FORTY THOUSAND DOLLARS TO Be RAISED

The movement that was commenced
some time ago by a large number of
people of Walla Walla looking towards
the erection of Young Mems Chris
tan association building in this city,
is again being, considered. A meeting
was recently held at which time the
promoters decided to postpone the
matter of soliciting subscriptions until
September /. At that time the city
will be divided into several districts
and committees will begin soliciting
for subscriptions. 1t is the intention
to raise at least $4,000 for the pur-
pose of purchasing a site and erecting
the building
L don't anticipate any difficulty in
sition," said one of the gentlemen who
is taking an active part in securing
the erection of the building. 1T will
mean a great deal to the young men
of Walla Walla and l am confident
that when the business men and other
people are called upon they Will con-
tribute literally toward this laudable
object. Walla Walla is certainly large
enough to support a first class asso-
citation and we believe the public spir-
tied people of our city will respond
nObly and assist in carrying out what
believe will prove of great benefit to
the young men of Walla Walla. If the
committee is successful in securing
the necessary money a handsome up
to-date and modern building will be
erected at some central location. Sev-
eral sites have been suggested and
the committee has made some investi
cations as to price and the possibility

A Sliding Railway.
From an Exchange.

M. Sautereau does away with the
running wheels of cars and replaces
them with slippers or skates The
cars are raised on a thin film of wa
ter, which is forced under the skates
through a jet. In the earlier plans
the propelling force contemplated was
a horizontal jet of water, which was
directed against suitable vanes on the
bottom of the cars. The valves of
these jets were opened by the leading
car and closed by the rear one. In the
plan as at present proposed a third
rail is laid between the two gliding
rails, and a friction wheel, driven by
electric motors, runs on this and fur
nishes the propelllng force. The adj
vantages claimed for this system of
traction are a great reduction in the
track resistance and in the power re-
quired by a car, much smoother rum
ming of the cars, and hence a smaller
depreciation, both of track and car.
There is no danger of derailment and
high speeds can be attained. BY cut
ting off the water supplied under the
skates a great braking effect is secur-
ed. Figures are given to show the
economy of the system over electric
traction on wheels.

THE NEGRO PROBLEM SOLVED.
Froni Leslie,s Weekly.

North Carolina is fortunate in having
a chief executive in the person of Gov.
Charles B. Aycock, who has not only
the courage of his convictions, but
whose convictions on many of the vital
issues of the day are just and sound.
Early lase year Gov. Aycock de-
clared himself in strong terms as in
favor of a popular educational sys-
TEN for the state, in which racial dis
tinctions should be absolutely ignored,
and he also advocated law absolute
ly prohibiting the employment of
children under twelve years of age.
More recently, in a speech at the first
annual dinner of the North Carolina
Society of Baltimore, the Governor
created a profound impression by de-
claring that the negro problem had
been solved so far as his state was
concerned. The solution in the Cover
Dor's own words was as follows: 1T
is. first, as far as is possible under the
Fifteenth Amendment, to disfranchise
him; after that, let him alone; quit
writing about him, quit talking about
him. quit making him the white mans
burden, let him tote his own skillet
quit coddling him, let him learn that
no man, no race, ever got anything
himself; that character is the outcome
of sacrifice, and worth is the result of
toll; that whatever his future may be,
the present has in it for him nothing
that is not the product of industry,
thrift, obedience to law, and upright
ness" Further than this Governor
Aycock said that he would have the
negro understand that there is an UNI
ending separation of the races, that
there is line which can
never be crossed" But the
negro must have a fair chance; he
must have justice; he must have free
play to develope his faculties and to
make the most of himself
1.-The white man in the South" said
Gov. Aycock in conclusion, can
never attain to his fullest growth un-
til he does absolute justice to the negro
race. If he is doing that now, it is well
for him. If he is not doing it, he must
seek to know the ways of truth and
pursue them"

Washington, Jan. 81. Pierpont
Morgan was here day or two ago
attending a meeting of the Peabody
Fund. When he came out from lunch
con at his hotel be grabbed for
his hat, which was on rack near
the door. He jammed the hat he took
on is head. 1t did not fit. He took it
off, turned it around and damned it
on his head again. Still it did not
fit
Here, here" he said sharply to the
negro at the door. This is not my
hat. Where is my hat? l want my
hat. This is not it. Where is it?'
The negro, who has been handing
out hats at that door for years, took
the hat and said: mo. sab: that's
Gov. Taft's hat. Here's your hat"
as Taft in there?" asked Mr.. Nor
gan. with much interest. 81 guess I'll
have a look at him."
He went to the door and stared at
Judge Taft's huge bulk for half a
minute. Then he said: big chap!"
and bolted for the hotel office.
Taft finished his luncheon and came
out a few minutes later
MIR. J. Pierpont Morgan took your
hat" said the negro at the door.
HE didn't keep it, though"

that the light of the glowworm is
used as love signal. The female glow
worm, in marriageable mood, lights
up her lamp like Hero of Abydos, and
keeps it burning until all the suitors
within sight have formed circle

There are worse ways of courtship.
X-Rays and COurtship.
If we are to believe a japanese in
vestigator who published his results
six or seven years ago, the glowworm
can give our own maidens hints in the
useful art of choosing a mate. He pro-
fessed to have ascertained that the
light of the glowworm, when filtered
through a suitable medium, showed
the characteristic properties Of the
rays then just discovered by Prof.
Rontgen rays, which we can only use
through the medium of a fluorescent
screen.
In that case, it is clear enough why
the light is always displayed at mat
ing time. Appearances are deceptive in
all ranks of life, and the power of lit
erallv "searching the. heart which
the Rontgen rays bestow upon their
lucky possessor must be simply in
valuable to those about to marry
Solomon long ago pointed out the
value of the ant as a pattern to hui

immortal if his discovery teaches the

glowworm, and insist that her rival

searching test of the X-rays.
