A PATHETIC sToRY.

On Sunday night at Mt. Olive Bap-
list Church, an incident was brought
TO iignt that was very sad and which
elected the sympathy of all present
who are in the least inclined to be of a
f~orgiving nature. DR.. Clark, the pas
tor, stated that he had a beautiful OBJ
Ject to snow the audience, the story of
which can best be told by the follow
ing letter:
Nashville, Tenn, November, OF.
Elder Clark:
Kind Sir:-It is emergency that
causes me to humbly beg OF you, also

fellOwman that has met with misfor-

MIXED DATES.

The editor of the Globe made an
amusing m%iscalculation last week.
His birthday was on November 8, but
somehow or other he imagined that
November 8 was November 8, and in
vited friends to partake of his hos
pitality ON Friday. The next day he
found that he had made an error
and invited the same friends to a rep
etition of the proceedings Of the pre-
ceding night.

human beings have been killed
outright on the railroads, while
more than two thousand have

for this wholesale slaughter of
the innocents has not been fixed
in a single instance that we are
aware of. That negligence of
employees is responsible for
some of the many wrecks is no
doubt true, but desire on the
part of the managers to show

The wheat Convention at Pullman

The production of wheat is the lead
ing industry OF Washington. In the
eastern part of the state it overshadows
everything else. When its great i'm
portance is considered one cannot help
being impressed by it. A vast deal OF
land is devoted to its production, the
entire population is more or less direct
ly dependent on the annual harvests,
while the surplus added to the total
wealth of the state is enormous.
In view of these facts the holding of
the second annual Wheat Convention
is an event of supreme Importance.
The program being prepared is even
better than last year and ought to hold
the interest of everyone in attendance.
r. B. Miller, general freight agent OF
the o. r. & NJ, will discuss problems OF
industrial development from the rail"
road point of view. Hon. j. w. ARA
smith, state grain inspector, will sug-
gest remedies for the intolerable grain
situation. Samuel Glasgow will speak
from observations made on his recent
travels regarding our oriental trade.
Orno Strong, editor of the West Coast
Trade, will review the industry of the
past year. Perhaps the most important
speaker will be II. w. Campbell OF
Lincoln, Neb, the advocate of the sci
entific system of sol culture for dry
lands. Mr.. Campbell is being brought
out by the association at heavy expense
to talk dry land farming. Wherever
his system has been adopted, as it has
in Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado,
wonderful results have been secured,
even on the lands having no more than
ten inches rainfall. In addition to these,
speakers from the State Experiment
Station will discuss the scientific as
poets of wheat production, and practical
farmers from all over the stale will
handle the many topics of direct inter-
est to everyone. Every wheat grower
in the state ought to attend.

WHAT MANNER OF BUILDINGa

The bond proposition having
carried the question now arises
what character of building do the
patrons of the school desire-a
frame, brick or concrete school
building. The Echo is unalter
ably favorable to brick or con
crete. At the present eXtraordi-
nary high price of lumber the
cost of brick or concrete build
ing would not be much greater
than wooden building. The
cost for repairs and the higher
rate of insurance on wooden
building would in five years
more than make up the differ
ence in the cost of a substantial
brick or concrete building.
Above brick we favor concrete
as the most durable material for
public building. Get prices
on reinforced concrete build
ing, gentlemen of the board, and
if the price is not prohlbitive let
us have the most approved mod
ern building The sand and gray
ell, in quantity the most important
part, would cost practically moth
ing. Neither fire nor quake
damaged the walls of concrete
buildings in Frisco last spring.
To rehabilitate them, all that
was necessary was to replace the
wood used in their construction.
Concrete walls get better and
stronger for a thousand years.
Let us have an expression OF
the patrons of the school,

A convention will meet in We
natchee on Monday, January Z,
composed of the commercial and
other promotion clubs of eastern
Washington, for the purpose of
taking concerted action in secur-
ing congressional aid in opening
the Columbia from the mouth of
the river to the British Columbia
line. The meeting promises to
draw out a large and representa-
tive body. If the people can
overcome the influence opposed
to opening the river to naviga-
ton congress may take some &C
ton, but it is extremely doubt
full, as the combined influence of
the railroads will be eXerted to
to defeated any action of this
kind or at least to such an eX-
tent than any appropriation Sc
cured will be wholly inadequate
to the task of making of the Col
UNI ia river q navigable stream.

NEGROES TAKE PLACE OF JAPS
Great Northern Railway Co. Import
ing Black LabOrers


The Great Northern has determined
to do away with japanese labor and is
importing negroes from Missouri to
take the place of the laps, says an Ev-
erett paper. Three coach loads of ne
groes from Kansas City passed through
here today enroute to the vicinity OF
Bellingham. There were 100 in the
bunch, and about 200 moro are on the
way here.
The men will be used on the section
and on extra gangs, Jap laborers are
becoming harder to get every day.
While they are steady workers they
do not accomplish as much in day as
other men If the present experiment
of the railroad is successful, all OF the
sections throughout the northwest will
be manned by negroes.
The railroad has been handicapped
in doing needed improvement work by
the scarcity of laborers, and an effort
is being made to bring many OF That
class TO the northwest.

Beer by the Plug In Kansas

Extract OF beer, put up in tablet form
or plugs like tobacco, is what the thirs-
ty Kansan may now use to quench his
thirst, says the New York Times. One
plug will make from four to six gallons
of what is POLITICALLY termed the amber
fluid. And the plug beer seems TO have
all the qualities, good and bad OF that
which is made from real hops and put
in bottles and kegs.
