WHITMAN BOYS DESERVE EN-
COURAGEMENT.

Whitman College athletics deserve
much better support from the general
public of Walla Walla than they have
been receiving this year The ball
game yesterday afternoon between
the Whitman team and the State Uni
versity team was one of the best ever
played in this city. but only few
people from town turned out to see
it. Much larger crowds have often
turned out to see some picked-up nine
from Echo. Helix or some other way
station play a local team. The State
University team is one of the best in
the state and the Whitman boys did
nobly yesterday in holding down the
score to 3 to 2 in favor of the varsity
boys.
Whitman College boys are making a
special effort to excel in athletics They
made a fine record in football last fall
and in the track meet with Pullman a
few days ago. They have a baseball
team that is a credit to the college and
it deserves liberal patronage from the
people of Walla Walla.

FRENCH GOVERNMENT PROB
LENS.

The labor troubles in France today
are said to be causing the government
great anxiety and to have led to the
massing of troops in Paris and in GER
tain rural districts where an eight-hour
demonstration by the miners was
made May l. The situation is de-
scribed in one paragraph as threaten
ing, in another it is ascribed to cleo
pioneering tactics on the part of the
conservatives, who are anxious to re-
duce the socialist representation in the
next chamber of deputies.
There is an undercurrent of discon-
tent in France 1t is twofold-religious
and economic. The separation Of
church and state and the violent meth
DDS adopted by the government in
carrying out the inventories of the
churches gave deep Offense to the ru
raj parts of France, where religious
sentiment is more strongly rooted than
in any other part of Europe. The viii
lage Frenchman and the French far
mers are intensely Catholic. They
were outraged to see their churches
entered by constables backed by SOL
diers; they were made frantic by re-
ports of churches wrecked, priests in
suited, and in many places praying
people charged with clubs. This from
the agents of a cabinet whose head avs
an atheist and a socialist, was almost
too much.
On the financial side there is discon-
tent because the government is so ex-
pensive. The administration of France
is a terrible burden upon the indus
tries of the country. 1t is necessarily
so because France is armed on land
to meet Germany and on the sea she
must maintain her traditional policy of
being second only to England. Ger
many. with a fresher. more hopeful
population. is pushing hard for the ma
val supremacy Of the. continent. All
of these items make the government
an almost in.olerable burden. Be-
sides, the country is menaced night
and day with the possibility of war.
The kaiser sees to that. Hence capt.
tai is always in a f1utter.
The greatest difficulty with France,
however. is a certain dry rot which
affects the civic virtue Of the land.
The grafters have so long had
command of the country that the peo-
pie no longer believe in civic virtue at
all. The country is honeycombed with
anarchism and socialism.
The republic needs peace, which, I'M
fortunately, its situation prohibits 1t
needs economy. which is impossible
without ample guarantees of peace. 1t
which seems well-nigh hopeless in a
land largely socialistic in thought but
organized on a military basis.

M|X0LoG|sT ARRIVES IN THE CITY
Will Dispense Fancy Summer Drinks
for Well Known Alder Street
Firm.

Griffin & Walmer, Is East Alder
street, the well known firm of ice
cream makers and confectioners, an
nOunces the opening of their ice cream
and soda fountain business for the sea-
son Of 1906.
To a reporter, Mr.. Griffin said:
"Our trade is the highest class in
Walla Walla, and we have made ample
preparations this year to meet the re-
quirements of our patrons.
"Our soda, ice cream and fancy sum-
mer drink department will be featur-
ed this year, and made to introduce
many innovations in the way of de-
liciOus warm weather refreshments. We
are confident of that, for we have Sc
cured the services Of Harry Morrisey,
of Los Angeles. Harry left our en-
ploy about two years ago to go to
Los Angeles. In that city he at once
went into training to excel in his
calling. He accepted position with
the Sun Drug company He worked
for this celebrated firm long enough
to graduate as an expert mixologist
in the line of fancy drinks, and II ne
doesn't make a hit with his work in
Walla Walla this summer, I'll have an
other guess coming.
"Harry's repertoire consists of not
less than fifty new summer drinks,
and he serves them all like finished
artist. He has half dozen egg drinks
that are out and out winners. Any
one Of them will make a man of fifty
feel like a boy Of twenty. With Harry
in complete charge of our soda and
ice cream department, we're ready for
a long seige of summer business and
our trade can't come in crowds large
enough to displease us. We're conf
dent that the most critical will be
pleased with our service
Griffin & Walmer conduct a very at
tractive store in Walla Walla Mr..
Griffin is on expert in his line, and his
ice creams and sherberts have not a
little fame throughout the city. The
firm are sticklers for using only the
purest materials in all the goods manu-
featured; particularly are their crushed
fruit and fruit juices the purest and
best that money can buy. In addi-
ton to taking care of the retail trade
the firm makes a speciality of serving

lions ice cream and fancy refresh

minds. We know many men, some
hotter than others. Some we call
friends but are they more than ac-
ouaintances? Where do we nno pc
tween two men such love as David
bore to Jonathan, or such devotion as
Damon gave to Pythias? Where are
two spirits knit like the souls OF the
searchers for truth, who used to walk
in academic groves?
There is no doubling the tendency OF
the time. Men meet in business or In
a social way, know each other Tor
wears, and call each other friends;
but do they pour out their real
thoughts hopes, disappointments to
these friends? Not in the majority of
cases. and there lies the root of the
whole matter. The atmosphere of bus
mess chokes sentiment, and represses
the natural flow of confidence between
man and man. Friends talk the gossip
of the day. They discuss plays, music,
murders, disasters, as men do who
form a chance acquaintance on street
car. Sentiment is tabooed. The real
mind and heart of each remains
closed book. They fail to reach
footing of confidence and full trust in
each other.
1t sometimes takes severe shock to
make us realize this situation. When
a man one has called friend" goes
wrong, we wonder why. In our knowl-
edge of him nothing ever betrayed
the fatal weakness We understand,
too late, that we did not really know

have been helped.
Friendship of the real sort pays, not
always in material prosperity, but in
the things that make for happiness and
upbuilding. A true friendship with a
man of moral fibre is a bulwark
against temptation. Communion Of
two kindred minds is one of the high
est of pleasures.

1t is stated by the Nebraska papers
that the chief obstacle to raising sugar
beets in that state is the danger of
heavy rains just as the beet is ma
turing. The beet, finding is easier. fills
up on water instead of extracting SUI
gar from the soil. For this reason
irrigated lands are better for the in
dustry. The water can then be fed out
in the proper quantities.

HOME INDUSTRIES ARE IMPORTANT
Citizens Should Give Thier Pro-
ducts the Preference at
Every Opportunity.

F. w. Kaiser, chairman of the Home
Industry Committee of the Fifty Thou
sand Club, hit the nail on the head
in his address on Thursday night at
the Court House when he said that
citizens of Walla Walla should at all
times give preference to the products
of local industries.
BY following such a course the city
is bound to make progress and every
inhabitant would stand better chance
to share in It's prosperity. Said Mr..
Kaser:
mot many articles are manufacture
ed in Walla Walla, but those that are
should receive the liberal support of
all citizens. That's the way to keep
money at home; build up your city"
Local industries that were compli
mented very highly by Mr.. Kaser were
the Walla Walla flour, cigars and meat
packing interests. All these he
thought ought to be given the prefer
ence over the goods that reach this
city from outside points and the peo-
pie would do this very thing if they
took time to intelligently sonsider the
matter.
In his address, Mr.. Kaser said:
can industry of much Importance to
this city is the Walla Walla Meat &
| Cold Storage Company. The company
buys it's raw materials here; manu-
fatcures all it's products here, and for
these reasons it should have the sup
port of everyone who has the best in
| terests of our city at heart. This
company is working along the right
| lines. 1t is proving to Walla Wallans
the fallacy of paying the freight both
East and West for certain important
foodstuffs, for that is what they are
doing when they purchase the hams
and bacons of the Eastern packers.
The practice of Eastern packers on
not a few occasions is to buy their
| live stock here and haul it East. In
the East it is packeu and then shipped
out here again, and consumers have to
pay all the freight charges. AS far as
packing products are concerned Walla
Wallans have the best of reasons for
patroniZing a home company"

S2ARROWS HERE DON'T
BUILD NESTS IN TREES

The little birds are having hard
time of it in Twin Falls. The
nesting season is upon them and
they have no trees in which to
make their homes and rear their
young. Knot holes, crevices, caves
and inches of every kind are being
used by the feathered homebuilders.
In almost every new building
under construction the nests of SPAR
rows and other small birds may be
found. The sparrows are routed
out without mercy but wherever
possible the nests of other birds are
unmolested. Nests are being built
in the most unexpected places, the
birds apparently not caring in the
least for publicity. Twin Falls
Times.
Here, where there are trees in
Vulnerable, trees clothed in entic-
ing green foliage, the sparrows
seem to prefer any and every other
place in which to build nests and
rear their young. The Telephone
block, which built of boulders,
has many holes in the sides of its
walls. These seem to be the fav-
orite nesting place for sparrows
hereabouts, and hundreds of them
can be seen at times lowering
around the holes and alighting or
the perpendicular walls. This, then
appears to be a case where the birds
have adapted themselves to Their
environment. Until man came
along and planted trees, these prai-
rie-bred sparrows had been aocus-
toned to nest in any old place.
| Then, too, the rocks, the ground
and nitches in buildings are doubt
less safer places in which to nest
than trees; owing to the fact that
high winds prevail throughout this
section and the slender trees are
almost constantly in motion, which
wouli endanger both the eggs anc
