Investors From Yakima

Henry Cayou was over from his
fine farm on Decatur island Tuesday,
accompanied by Candy Brothers, Of
North Yakima, wen-to-do farmers
and business men who we're looking
over the county with a view to locat-
ing. They were greatly pleased with
the San Juan valley and with the is
lands in general When in town they
asked to be shown the court house,
with which they were quite disgusted.
One of the gentlemen recently came
to this country from Australia, where
he was engaged in the sheep bust
ness on quite an extensive scale. Mr..
Cayou expects to sell or lease his De-
catur island property soon and when
he does he intends to move to his
place at Deer Harbor.

many years he has been it's superin-
tendent and for several years past
has also been vice president. He has
resigned his official positions in the
company and withdrawn from all
connection with it, intending to de-
vote his entire time to his private in
terests. He is still interested in the
Staveless Barrel Company and is also
quite largely interested with Mr.. Nc
Millin in mining property in south
eastern Alaska.
Mr.. Shultz's many friends through
out the county will be glad to learn
that he does not intend to give up his
residence in the county. He was in
town a short time Wednesday and in
response to question as to his plans
said: II expect to devote some time
to the improvement of my ranch on
Henry island. As to whether shall
engage in any other business here or
elsewhere Ihave not fully determined.

He hasn't entered into this contract

AN OPINION FROM
MITCHELL BAY
A. j. Lightheart Favors Fire Proof
Stone Building--A Michi-
gan Mans Opinion

EDITOR IsLANDER:-A considerable
correspondence has been sent to
your paper concerning the proposed
new court house, so wish to add my
views. Three years ago when the
matter was before the people I op-
posed it for two reasons. First,
there was a bonded debt yet to be
wiped out and I thought that should
be paid first. Second, ] was then
and am now opposed to frame build
ing and l am glad to note that the
trend of opinion among the taxpay-
ers now is so decidedly in favor of
brick or stone. My choice is for
stone, and of our own county produc-
tion, of which there seems to be plenty
offered. | would not like to fix a
limit of cost but think that our board
of commissioners can be relied upon
to put up building without any
"graft. " I would say, however, that
it seems to me that building could
be built at cost not exceeding $50, :
900 that would answer every want
for the next fifty years. It should be
freproof in all respects, regardless
of cost. AS to paying for it would
prefer twenty-year bonds, but am
ready to do my share in any way that
the people, or their duly authorized
agents, may decide.

bob WHITES" AS
WEED EATERS
Quails Are Valuable AL
lies of the Farmers


The department. Of agriculture has
issued an interesting bulletin on the
quails of the United States that tends
to correct some popular errors re-
garding bob White" and is strong
plea for his preservation as an ally of
the farmer.
A thorough study of the bird has
been made by the department with
out finding any evidence that it is
harmful to crops. It eats principally
noxious weed seeds and bugs injuri-
Gus to the crops. It does not trouble
either the sprouting grain, as do the
crows and blackbirds, and does not
feed on the standing crops or forage
among the stacks. When it does eat
grain it is only what it CLEANS from
the harvest fields. It prefers weeds
and does not eat wheat or corn if it
can get sumach, ragweed and bay
berries.
A close calculation was made by
the department. of the number of Bob
Whites in Virginia and North Caro-
lima, the total approximating 354, 800.
I It is known from long series of ex-
periments that the craw Of the bird
holds about half an ounce, of which
fully so per cent is weed seed. At
this rate from September l to April
80 in Virginia and North Carolina
alone the birds eat 3, 341 tons of weed
seeds.
Among the insects on which the
birds habitually feed are the Rocky
mountain locust, the Colorado potato
bug, the boil weeyil, the cut worm,
the army worm and two sorts of cot
ton worms. The chicks are even
more highly insectivorous than the
old birds.

B. j. Massey, of Kalamazoo, Mich,
who owns some property on Orcas is
land, has been an interested reader
of the opinions expressed in the Is
LANDER on the court house question.
In letter to the editor written at
Kalamazoo, Nov. Z, he says: Il see
by the ISLANDER that quite anumbel
of taxpayers have expressed their
views regarding new court house.
From what saw last year when |
was there think that you really
need new building. Mr.. Robert
Moran's ideas are good und it would
be well to pay some attention to them.
I enclose newspaper clipping show
ing picture of new $50, 900 court
house which has just been completed
at Bellaire, Michigan. There probab-
" will be more business done there
in one month than you will do in a
whole year. / think $40, 900 build
ing would be all that would be needed
for years. Have it of brick orstone,
with hollow walls to keep the damp
ness from the inside"
IThe illustration sent by Mr.. Massey is
of handsome two story and basement
building with tower 1Ol #. in height. 1t
is constructed Of sandstone and pressed
brick and the interior finish is quarter
sawed oak. The court room is IS X SO #.
with seats for 30 persons. The building
is steam heated.

Tho Promises Of the Gear.

The Cars proclamation granting
religious freedom in Russia seems to
be regarded by the world in general
as having string attached to it. In
stead of being overwhelmed with joy
the Russian masses themselves are
said to regard it with sullen sus-
picion. One of the worst crimes conf
mitted against civilization in recent
years by the Russian government has
been its persecution of various re-
ligious sects, and it seems too much
to be believed within the empire or
beyond its borders that all that pcrsc-
cutiOn has suddenly ended. and that
the great reforms promised are to be
carried out in faithful spirit. 1t
has been the habit of those in power In
Russia to make all kinds of pledges III
order to allay political agitation, ana
when they had served their purposes
the pledges were fagrantiy violated.
Fully As. 9OO. 900 of the Cars sub
jects are classed as belonging To
"hcterodox and non-Christian deno'm-
nations" The main bodies OF this
classification are Jews, Roman Catho-
lies. Lutherans, Mohammedans and
Arrenians. The Firms are Lutherans,
while 5000. COO of the 100000 people in
Poland are Roman Catholics. These
have both suffered but their burdens
have been light compared with those
forced upon the 100000 Jews through
ont the empire. There are about 12,-
900. 900 Mohammcdans in the empire
most of whom live in the Asiatic
provinces, and for political reasons
these have largely escaped repression
and persecution.
Thus over one-third of the Russian
people are not affiliated with the Or
thodox Greek Catholic church which
is the state religion. Undoubtedly
millions of those who profess this Or
thodox faith are at heart really fol-
lowers of other crecds. If the CzaI
honestly means what he has said in
this latest proclamation regarding re-
ligious freedom. then Russia is indeed
upon the dawn of a new day and one
of the greatest things ever ac-
complishcd for religious tolerance has
becn realized. The world is Skeptical
however. and will watch closely for
developments before believing that the
religious freedom promised is sincere
and permanent.

The Yosemite. like Niagara. has been
saved once more and the country hopes
both will stay saved this time. over
T. years ago Landscape Architect
Olms ted of Boston protested against a
possible s''irreparable calamity" which
would have been brought to the YO-
semitic Valley and to the MaripOsa
Big Tree Grove II the schemes of some
selfish interests had been adopted.
The protest was effective I'm calling a
halt to threatened despoilatiOn Of
the beautiful region. but the danger
has existed until short time past
when Governor Pardee signed the bill
restoring the valley and grove to the
national government. The whole
country has been interested in the fate
of the California wonderland as they
have been in the fate Of Niagara Falls.
and it is especially gratifying that the
Yosemite Valley is made secure at
time when through jobbery in the New
York legislature the future Of Niagara
Falls hangs uncertain because OF the
moves Of selfish manufacturing and
lighting interests to divert water even
Mt the risk of draining the falls on the
American side.
