Infected Fruit Law Upheld.

In overruling the demurrer of the
defendant in the case of the state
against G. G. Richmond, Judge Sulli-
van has held as constitutional the act
under which Richmond was arrested
the complaint being that he had in
his possession and offered for sale
fruit infected with Goblin moth or
other insects.
The act making it an offense for
person to have in his possession eth
er as grower or dealer, infected
fruit, provides for fine, the mini
mum of which is $50 in case of con-
viction. The question of the inno-
cence or guilt ofithe defendant was
not raised at this time, this being
made a test case by the state to de-
termine the constitutionality of the
act under which the prosecution is
brought.
The defendant in his demurrer at
tackled the constitutionality of. the
act, the question being raised as to
whether it was proper regulation of
the police power of the state. 1t
was argued that the measure was an
infringement on personal rights, and.
therefore, unreasonable and unjust.
In overruling the demurrer Judge
Sullivan held that the act is clearly
within the police power of the state,
and is proper for the protection of
the public welfare, and the fruit in
dustry of the state. The act is held
by the court to be in the same class
as the statute regulating the sale of
oleomargerine.
1t has been repeatedly held by the
courts that the state has a right to
exercise its police power in the regu-
lation of matters which affect the
public interests and the public well
fare For example, the law provid-
ing that doctors, dentists, BARRIERS,
and others are required to have Ii
cense, is constitutional, while the
law requiring plumbers license or a
horseshoer's license was not.

COUNTRY IS Benefited
BY DELAY Of ROAD
Failure of Great Northern to Con-
struct Wenatchee-Oroville Road
Good for Small Investors

1.-The announcement that the Great
Northern road will not build up the
Columbia river this year is virtually
a notice of continued opportunity for
the small investor"
Thus spoke Capt. Fred McDermott
this morning when approached by a
World representative in regard to
the announcement given out from
St. Paul Wednesday that the Wenat-
chee-Oroville extension of the Great
Northern will not be built until next
spring. Capt. McDermott is thor
oughly familiar with up river condi-
tions and continuing he said: There
land along the Columbia river and
tributary valleys above Wenatchee
that are either not now occupied at
all, or that can be obtained cheaply
from present owners when cut into
small holdings, marking them well
within the reach of the small in
vestor. BY small investor" l mean
the, people of the east who are look
ing this way and who will come to
Washington with but few hundred
or few thousand; dollars to spend.
This is the class of home builders
that the whole Columbia river val
ley needs, and that We are looking
for. This is the class, also, to which
the Columbia river country probably
right now offers better opportunities
for making start than does any.

Then you do not believe the de-
lay in railroad building will prove
injurious to the country" was asked.
mo. 1t may retard it some, which
is just the point l make in speaking
of extended opportunities, but it will
not injure it. The country is still
new. The present owners of land,
are, in the main, more desirous of
securing neighbors to assist in the
work of development than they are
of obtaining money. But, in order
to get neighbors, they must divide
up their lands. Hence the new
comer's opportunity. Orchards re-
quire some time to grow, and the fact
that the railroad is going to build
makes it every whit as good. or bet
ter, for him than if it had buiIt.
Then he would be too late. Now is
his opportunity.
Here is another thing. The sur
vey stakes have been set on the west
bank of the Columbia river, and the
general public has taken it for
granted that, when extended, the
railroad will follow that bank of the
river for the entire distance. AS
time goes along l am beginning to
think it altogether possible that, be-

fore they start grading, the rail-
road officials will consider this mis-
take.
in my judgment, for stragetic
purposes and otherwise-some of the
otherwises made more obvious with
in the past year-the Great Northern
should build along the east bank of
the Columbia from the bridge at
Rock Island or at Wenatchee to Che
Ian ripids and cross there to tap the
Lake Chelan country, the Methow
and other regious. At Chelan rapids
are easy approaches, massive natural
rock bridge pillars and many other
advantages which to an ordinary OBJ
server would seem to favor bridge
building. BY this route the many
west bank would be avoided, to-
gether with the constant trouble and
danger, particularly as has been the
case this spring, from snow and rock
slides. At the same time an immense
belt of the finest orchard land, be-
sides the great interior wheat dis
.trict, would be opened. By follow
ing this route, trains would eventual
ly be running through a continuous
orchard.
However, don't set me down as
undertaking to prophesy that the
railroad is going to build this way.
That is only a secondary matter with
ns at the moment--aHd a something
that is up to the other fellow The
IDEA is that we will not weep if the
road doesn't build up country this
summer, which, of course, most peo-
pie think it should. The fact that
it will not, however, cannot be just
ly spoken of as an injury to the cer-
tain bright and prosperous future
of the country. This is emphatically
the best section of the Pacific North
west for the homeseeker and investor
to come to today.

the only ones seen In Uncle Sans
realm had been adjuncts to circuses.
When the experiment was first at
tempted there were many misgivings
as to what success would attend the
venture. 1t had been the accepted
opinion that the birds would not thrive
anywhere save in the Dark Continent.
This doubt has passed away, for not
single one Of the farms Is a loser,
and some are yielding a considerable
profit.
Outside Of the first cost of the birds,
ostrich farming is not a costly ven
ture. The food bill Is not a big one,
and a farm Of a couple Of hundred
acres Is big enough to take care Of aa
many birds as any farmer would want
to handle, The herds have to be kept
In Enclosures, for while many Of them
become tame, others never lose theIl
wildness and tendency to pugnacity.
The ostrich in this country Is feel
ing so much at home that 1t Is more
than a dream Of the future that nine
tenths Of the plumes nodding over the
American woman's hat will come day
be the product of her own country.

SERIOUS CONDITION
ICEWAGON DRIVERS and GAR
BAGE men STRIKE in N. Y.
Great Fear Of Epidemic From Heaps Of
Garbage-NearIy 300 Carloads a
Day and Six Days Behind Now
1900 Men CONTRACTED for in PhiladeI-
phiaADlsinfectants Scattered.

New York City is experiencing an
impressive demonstration as to what
extent the comfort of the millions is
dependent upon the handful, compare
lively, of citizens ordinarily engaged
in collecting garbage and delivering
ice. Two thousand garbage collectors
and an equal number of ice wagon
drivers are on strike ana the city is
in peril of an epidemic of disease.
The garbage situation is the more
serious and unless speedily remedied
the possibility of evil is startling
Nearly 755 carts are required to re-
move each days accumulation, and the
work is six days behind.
The chief difficulty encountered by
the health department is that the men
who work for wages cannot honorably
take the places of strikers. Three
dollars day and permanent employ
ment is offered, but has attracted few
Efforts to get men from other cities
have now been made and recruits are
promised from Philadelphia.
The healt.. department took hold
late Friday and since has used its
police powers vigorously and its emer-
gency fund of $4,000 without stint, but
SO far has been unable to meet condi-
tons effectually.
The officials of the board Of health
intimated that private citizens would
be doing public duty if they became
garbage collectors. The mayor has de-
clared that the law does not permit
dealing with civil service employees
who are on strike, and the street
cleaning department has refused to
formally entertain the demands of the
: men. 1t was intimated that settle
ment might be arranged legally.
Demands Of the Men.
The men hold to their original de-
mands, the most important of which
are:
THAT 48 hours constitute q weeks
work and that overtime be paid at the
rate of % cents per hour.
2-That no fines be imposed without
, the opportunity for hearing.
3-That a system of suspension be
practiced instead of fines.
Monday the situation grew hourly
worse. What work was done was in
the vicinity of Chinatown, on the east
side. Meantime the waste accumu'
, lated in other streets. In places re
fuse was piled high and elsewhere
i, strewn from curb to curb. Unable to
=. do better, the health squaus scattered
; disinfectants through miles of high
> ways, hoping to hold in check disease
breading germs.

SCIENCE BENEFICIAL
But SECRETARY WILSON SAYS.
GOVERNMENT is SLOW.
Government Scientists Are Doing
Great Work for Nation-Reap Some
of the 5enefits-Are Given Patent
Rights So Far as They Apply to
Foreign Lands.

Millions of dollars-in fact, a sum
SO vast that it cannot be estimated
have been saved to the American peo-
pie by discoveries made by govern
ment scientists during the fiscal year
which has just closed" declared Sec
rotary Wilson, in speaking of the rec
ord of the department of agriculture
for the year. "Time alone must de-
velop the Importance to the world of
the experiments being conducted every
day by these men, whose only reward
is in the passing fame attained in re-
porting valuable, finds. There could
be money in many of these discoveries
if the scientists were to patent them
in their own names, but in every case
the people as a whole are the benefi-
Charles, for the patents are dedicated
to the government, to be used by the
United States or any of it's officers or
employees in the prosecution of the
work for the United States, or by any
person in the United States without
the payment of royalty"

ignition by the government of these
discoveries is far too meager, but he
does not hesitate to give to the scien
fist this little help whenever he feels
that it is merited. Whenever a valu
able discovery, warranting a United
States patent, is made by an employ'
of the department of agriculture, thu
secretary advances the salary of thu
employee as much as it is possible tt
do under the law. The patent is tax
en- out in this country in the namt
of the scientist making the discover,
and then dedicated to the Unitet
States. If the discovery is APPLICABLE
to use in a foreign country the scien
fist is authorized to receive the behe
fit, but usually the patent is of char
acter designed to meet conditions il
the United States and of little us
elsewhere.

ORIGIN OF THE KISS.

Its Earliest FOrm-The Caress of the
Ancient Indians.
At a recent session Of the American
Oriental Society Prof. Hopkins Of Yale
read a paper on 1.-THE sniff Kiss in An
Client India" Reduced to Its founda-
tion, the paper was history Of the kiss
as we know 1t, The learned Orlentalist
traced 1t from Its birth and proved that
the earliest peoples and earliest times
knew it not. That there might be no
mistake he labelled the kiss Of to-day
1.-The genuine kiss" and 1.-The perfect
kiss"
Oddly enough, he finds that the genu-
Inc kiss was invented by woman. The
description Is given in the epic of an
cient India which treats Of the science
of love.
"She laid her mouth on my mouth, "
recites the poet, land made a noise
which gave me pleasure"
1.-THE early peoples" declared Prof
Hopkins, "knew nothing Of the kiss in
any form. Had they known Of 1t they
would have told something Of it in the
mass Of records that has come down to
us, for surely an act which conveys
such pleasure could not have been for
gotten.
even to this day there are racei
that do not kiss. The Mongolians ant
certain Of the tribes in central Asia
do not osculate, and the EsQuimaux, W.
are told, employ the kiss only as
prophylactic.

FINE ARTS FOR NATION.
Movement for a Great Department Of
the Capital.

New York-The development of art
in the United States is forecasted in
a movement which has begun through
out the country for the establishment
at Washington of national depart
ment of fine arts, the head of which
shall be a member of the cabinet.
Plans for the national department of
fine arts, which have just become
public, include the establishment of
an athaneum, which shall have con-
troll over a school of arts, and a con-
servatory of music and the erection
of art galleries by the government in
many cities throughout the country.
Five large colleges are behind the
movement, which is being directed by
several leading architects in the
United States. Senator Newlands of
Nevada, it is said, will bring up a
bill for the establishment of an art de-
parement at the next session of con-
gress if those who are interested in
the fine arts movement believe that
the time is ripe for seeking congress
sional action.

Among Them.
At the annual banquet of the Ameri-
Gus Club of Pittsburg, in honor OF the
birth Of U. S. Grant, Secretary Of Agrl-
culture James Wilson, Congressman
Grant Mouser of Ohio and Washington
Gardner OF Michigan were the chief
speakers. Wilson spoke on "Agricul-
ture In Our Industries" He said in
part:
Agriculture is a creative force
among our industries. The result Of
the farmers work Of 1905 was Sc, 794,-
100000, an increase Of A per cent over
the last census year. We exported in
1906 $1,71S,000,0OO worth of goods Of
all kinds, and of this 70 per cent was
grown from farms and forests. AMI
mails and their products yielded $685.
100000, or 10 per cent, for export at
ter supplying the home demand. Cot
ton and cotton products exported were
$481, 100000, or % per cent; grain and
products sold abroad were $197 ,OOO,-
600, or lis per cent; and $119,OOO,O 900,
or 6.5 per cent, was miscellaneous farm
products.
Forest products are rs per cent Of
our exports, We use tobacco extensive
ly and pay around 100000 for i'm
portations from Cuba and Sumatra,
Porto Rico, Mediterranean countries
and Brazilian ports. We raised Su.
matra wrappers last year to the extent
of 100000 worth. The department
after discovering principles, conducts
object lessons on the farms Of the PEG
pie to help them toward better things
1--WE found in the Connecticut valley
and in Florida the same soil that grows
the wrapper tobacco in Sumatra, artel
visiting that country and studying theil
methods and soils. We found In Ala
bama and Texas the same soil that pro
duces the filler tobacco in Cuba, afteI
learning what soil is suitable, and las
year raised 400 acres Of it in thos,
States. We hope in time to grow al
the tobacco now imported from Cub,
and Sumatra into the United States.
