IMPORTING soNGsrERs.
rhe recommend World.

Importations of cage birds into the
United States have increased by more
than % per cent during the last four
years. or course a great majority of
such feathcred creatures brought into
this country are canaries. the breeding
OF which In Germany, and more par
ticularly by peasants In the Harz
Mountains, Is a most picturesque in
dustry, but about three hundred other
species are fetched hither from various
parts Of the world, and the methods
adopted for catching and transporting
them are In many instances both
curious and Interesting.
In earlier DAYS II was the custom
much more commonly than now for
sailors to collect strange birds IN dis
tant quarters OF the globe and bring
them to America or European seaports,
where they disposed OF them for small
sums IN ready money. Even at the
present time the species imported from
the Orient are mostly introduced In
this way. the traffic being conducted on
a considerable scale by the crews of
Pacific steamships with dealers IN San
Francisco. But so far as other birds
are concerned the business is more
highly systematized, Merchants in this
line of trade employ agents to secure
supplies of birds In their native haunts,
while maintaining such relations with
correspondents at European centres as
enable them to draw upon those sources
for whatever additional feathered stock
may be required,

OUR FAULTY ROAD. MAKING.

There are two systems Of construc-
ton for macadamized roads--the ma
cadam and the telford. They were
so named after two noted English
road buIldeia( Thc macadam has the
stones throurhGln of the same size.
The telford usls foundation of larger
rocks before the smaller or crushed
stones are laid.
The claims made for the telford
system are; 40 That The open foun'
dation provided by the larger stones
at the bottom are necessary for drain
age; C2) that this sub-pavement Is
necessary ON soft or poorly drained
soil to prevent the small fragment Of
broken stone from working down into
the soil, and tho soil from working
up into the stone; and (S) that tho
,elford is cheaper, since tho expense
OF crushing is saved.
For the macadam system II is urged ,
uDthat the drainage Afforded by the

macadam construction CD that on
any wen drained soil there Is no ten

CAUGHT AGAIN.

That the local anti-"Morinon" sheet
was again Illustrated in It's local notice
Of the pardon granted to James Camp
bell. The creature who wrote the
item was instructed to say:
1.-THE most prominent OF the prison
ers pardoned was James Campbell. who
was given three years In November,
1905, for improper relations with his
wifc's sister. Campbell. who was a
member of the Mormon Church. claimed
he married the girl in polygamy. He
had the misfortune 10 be caught, how
ever. and the Church deserted him in
the hour OF his misfortune
There is OF course, NOT word of
truth in this. And there was no excuse
for repeating the falsehood that was
thoroughly refuted at the time OF the
trial Campbell never was Nor
mor." The women IN the case never
were members OF the Church. Camp
bell, who was living in Colorado. had
heard that polygamy was practised in
Utah, When he found himself IN trou-
BILE, he came here, Il was said. hoping
to escape the consequences of his dou-
BILE relations. But he soon found out
his mistake.
The probability is that the false
une and other scandalous publications
of the same indescribable stamp, as
well as by the unscrupulous slanderers
of the State who have appeared In pull
pits and on platforms In many parts
of the country. were responsible for
the foolish impression OF Campbell that
his violation of the marriage covenant
would not be punished In Utah. One
| of the women had met a Mormon
| Elder, who. when the question OF NOV
ing to Utah was preached, tried to dis
suade her from doing so.
| The foolish idea that Campbell would
be unmolested in Utah. must therefore
have been derived from anti-"Mor-
mon" sources entirely.
The facts being as hero stated. 1t Il
| evident that the repetition of the old
| falsehood that Campbell was mem
Der of the Church caught in transgres-
sion was made only for the purpose OF

If the observations Of our reporter

ated In our local articles. For large

in no case is 1t permissible to mingle

FAULr-FINDING NO REMEDY.

Referring TO a suggestion by the
News that farmers haul coal from
the mines. In order to assist the rail-
roads in preventing a shortage of fuel
the coming winter, Mr.. J. A. Reeves,
General Freight Agent of the o. S. L.,
tells us that the fact is that there is
10 coal TO be had at the mines The
Wyoming mines. he informs us are
running half capacity, owing to the
impossibility Of procuring sufficient
force of laborers, Other mines. he
says, are about forty per cent. short
on miners. Under the circumstances
the oregon Short Lire has from 300
to 500 empty cars at the various mines.
There IL. then, no lack OF transporta-
ton facilities but of labor. We gladly
present this side of the question, too,
for the consideration of our readers.
1t Is somewhat perplexing feature
OF the coal situation, that opinions seem
to differ as to- the real cause of the
trouble. It was that fact which seemed
to suggest, last winter, the necessity
OF the coming together of business men
for the purpose of discussing the situa-
ton thoroughly with a view of find
ing the true cause and the infallible
remedy. We believe that is still a
crying necessity. 1t is no use, as we
stated ON Monday. to blame the rail-
roads, or to find fault without full
understanding OF the matter. Every
thing that will contribute to "A solution
of the coal problem should be brought
to the attention of the people,"
