TO END CHILD LABOR.
Senator Beveridge. of Indiana, Also
Has Meat Inspected Measure.

Richmond, Ind, Nov. 20. - At a
meeting here today of representatives
OF the Young Mems Christian associa-
tion of Indiana and Ohio, Senator Al
bert J. Beveridge stated that on the
opening day of the coming session OF
congress he intended to introduce a
bill prohibiting the labor of children
throughout the country and bill to
make more rigid the present meat in
spection law. He said the child labor
bill will provide that no railroad,
steamboat or other carrier of interstate
commerce should transport or accept for
transportation the product of any fac
tory or mine that employed children
under ii years of age.
The bill, he said, would provide that
every carrier of interstate commerce
should require an affidavit from every
factory or mineowner shipping its pro-
ducts that it did not employ children
under IA years of age, the form of the
affidavit to be prescribed by the depart
ment of Commerce and Labor or the
Interstate Commerce commission, with
heavy penalties, both civil and Grim
inal, for violation of the law. The bill,
if it becomes law, he believes will
stop the practice of running future citi-
by working children of tender
age in factories and mines.
There is no other way, said the sena
tor, to reach this growing evil. 4 Fed
eral statute cannot be passed directly
the factories and mines in
the states. That is the province of the
states. But congress has absolute
power over the railroads, boats, ships
and other agencies of interstate COM
merce, and unlimited power under the
to provide that they shall
1ot carry the products of factories and
mines that employ children.

STORM IN SOUTH.
Five Lives Lost and Much Damage 10
Property by Wind.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 20.-Eight
persons are known to have lost theil
| lives, scores of others are injured and
property and crops suffered great dam
age, the extent of which, because of the
meager reports yet obtainable, cannot
be estimated at this time, as result
of terrific wind and rain storm Sun
day. The storm, which originated on
the gulf, swept northwestward through
portions of Alabama, Central and
Northern Mississippi and Western
Tennessee, in its onward course razed
scores OF substantial buildings, partial
ly demolished hundreds of others,
caused complete decentralization of rail
road traffic and cut off telegraphic com
munication with many points in the
affected territory.
Cotton in the fields blown down by
the wind was beaten into the ground
and badly damaged. Besides the loss
of life and property damage which is
known to have occurred, a number of
points directly in the pathway of the
storm cannot be communicated with,
and complete reports are received it is
feared that the loss of both life and
property will be greatly increased.

FINISH SOUTH JETTY.
Chief Engineer Mackenzie Recom-
mends Continuing Contract.

Washington, Nov Il. - In his esti-
mates submitted to the secretary of
War, General Mackenzie, chief of en-
gineers, asks for an appropriation Of
81 600, 600 for the Columbia river jetty.
In his annual report, however, he
points out the necessity for continuous
work on the jetty until it is completed.
He says that, in addition to the ST.
000, 900 appropriated, Congress should
authorize continuing contract to the
extent of 1,450, 900 additional He
estimates that $2,0OO,O00 will COM
plete the south jetty.
If General Mackenzie's recommends
tion is carried out, 81 ,O0O,O 900 will be
inserted in the river and harbor bill
this winter and the remaining 81 49,
600 will be carried in the sundry civil
bill passed at the first session of the
next congress.

Little Fuel To Be Had in the Flooded
Sound District.
Loss From High Water Is Over One
MiIIion-Ra,Iroads Will Lose Most
Heavily, and Farmers Come Next
Crops in Ground Ruined, but
Little Livestock Lost.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 1.-THE floods
in the great river valleys south of Seat
tie, at their height yesterday morning,
are today subsiding. In the central
part of the White River country about
the towns of Kent and Auburn, dry
land is appearing and the people, driv-
en- to the surrounding high land for
refuge, are returning to their homes.
The outpouring waters maintain a high
level, at the mouth of the Duwamish
on the north and the mouth of the Puy-
allup on the south where they are
backed up by the tide.
The property loss will be heavy,
probably exceeding $l,00o,00o. The
destruction of the Northern Pacific rail-
way grades and trackage involves a
loss of $4,000 The Interurban cleo
tric road between Seattle and Tacoma
will have to spend $l00,0 for re-
pairs, and the individual losses of farm
ers and dairymen make up the remain
der. The loss of live stock is not as
heavy as at first feared, being probably
within $50, 900. The loss on crops still
in ground and in cellars and barns is
about 100000.
Hundreds of houses and barns were
swept from their foundations, but COM
paratively few were actually broken up
or carried any great distance. The
damage to furnishings in homes and
in stores by the water
formed the heaviest item of loss.
Floods in the White, Green and
Stuck River valleys are subsiding rap
idly, but the Duwamish river, whose
waters empty into Puget sound at this
place, is mighty lake, four miles
wide by II in length, backed up and
held in leash by the tide from the
sound. When that goes out late to-
night, great havoc is looked for from
ion exists at the mouth of the Puyal-
up at Tacoma.
The floods found the city already

NEWS ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST
FROM THE STATE OF OREGON
STRIKE A RICH VEIN.
Large and Well-Defned Ledge Discov-
cred at Cottage Grove,

Cottage Grove-A fattering find ii
reported from the Bohemia mining dis
trlct. 1t was made recently in the
claim known as the Big Maud, owned by
Colonel w. H. Blair. The ore is said
to be gh-grads and the ledge is large
and well defined. The usual degree OF
activity prevails throughout the camp,
and good results are in evidence. The
Oregon Securities and Vesuvius are in
full operation, employing large forces
Iof men. The annual assessment work
for this year is nearly completed on the
large number Of claims held by private
parties.
Activity in the numbering business is
constantly on the increase, notwith-
standing the operators are unable to
move their products. The car shortage
is seriously felt by the Is mills in this
locality. One company alone has about
100 carloads on the docks, and is simply
unable to secure cars. This is the case,
however, with all the mills. The lum-
bermen are advocating the enactment
OF law making it penalty for rail-
road company when it fails- to furnish
ears within specified time after the
order is placed. They contend that
they are not dealt with fairly in the
matter, as the railroad company i'm
poses demurrage of 81 a day when a
car is not loaded within 4S hours after
the time it is spotted. The railroad
company, on the other hand, takes its
own time and pleasure to furnish cars.
With about $250,000 worth Of lumber
cut and ready to move, the lumbernen
are hopeful that they will soon got re-
lief. They are running full capacity
and orders for moro lumber arc pouring
in, and if cars are not furnished soon
they will be compelled to close their
plants.

HAY SHORTAGE ON COOS BAY.
Farmers Do Not Produce Enough +
Supply Local Market.

North Bend-Bringing hay from the
Willamette Valley to North Bend and
Marshfield is something like carrying
Goals to Newcastle, yet nearly every
boat that comes here from Portland
lands a quantity Of hay. Around Co.
guile some hay i, grown for the mar
ket, but it costs nearly as much to
bring hay from that point to Marsh
field, distance of Is miles, as it does
to bring it from Portland. If the hay
is consigned to North Bend it must be
transferred from the cars to boats at
Marshfeld, and that costs 81 ton ex-
ira. Valley grass hay can be pur-
chased in Portland for SO ton, and it
costs So ton for freight. This hay
retails for $l3 a ton. There is no
clean timothy or clover hay to be had
here at any price and Oregon grass is
at premium.
On the bottom lands in Coos County
four and FIVE tons an acre Of oat hay
can be raised, and clover and timothy
grow well on the rich bench lands.
