Tho Renardites Of Jamaica.

There is probably no other race in
the world so enthusiastic over religion
and who enter so heartily into it's
They seem to lose all thought of their
surroundings and throw themselves
body and soul into their own peculiar
forms of worship.
& In Jamaica there is very large
religious sect called, after their leader,
Benardites Four times year the fol-
lowers of Bernard are baptized in the
water of the river Mona. Hundreds
Of these religious enthusiasts meet on
the banks of the river before day
break, and as many as 600 have been
dipped in a single morning. The price
Of a dipping is shilling, so that at
the rate of 600 quarter the income
to the leader and his church Is tidy
little sum.
After the baptism the freshly cleans
| ed and purified of sin form line, and
with gold embroidered banners and
silken streamers waving above the
long line of men and women they
march, singing, to the church, which is
| situated short distance back from the
river. Hundreds of these negroes
make up the long swaying and wind
ing procession, which sings as it moves
and eventually enters the church doors
or distributes itself outside near win
dows and doors.-New York Herald.

manufacturers far behind on their orders.
The Northwest is in splendid financial condition.
Seattle banks have $70O00,O0O in deposits and the
aggregate deposits in this and every other city in
the Northwest have increased in the past week
or two rather than decreased. Hard times in
the face of such conditions as these would be
impossible.
The financial situation is one which is caused
entirely by local conditions in the city of New
York What trouble there is has been brought
about largely by over-speculation and inJud1-
cious investment on the part of one or two men
who managed to gain control of several New York
banking institutions. These men have been forced
to resign their positions the institutions have
been placed sound basis again, and the sit
uation is clearing
1t is a matter which will adjust itself very
readily and already there is decided improve
ment. Cool heads and conservative spirit are
what are needed the most in instances of this
sort. There is safer place this minute for
money than in the Western banks, and the GER
tifcates which these banks are issueing backed
by their ample funds, are as good as government
gold bonds.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-11-15

The farmers have heard considerable about the
commission men lately, especially those who do
business in the city of Seattle. They have been
told by papers that they were all bad, by
others papers that they were all good. The
Ranch has believed in taking the stand which
justice calls for, which is that the entire COM
mission should not be condemned merely be-
cause some of them have been guilty OF ques-
tionable dealings. We have stood ready at all
times to expose commission men or any other
business concerns who could be proved guilty OF
wrong doing but have believed ON the other hand,
that reputable dealers should not be condemned
for the faults of those who disreputable,
merely because they happened to be in the same
line of business.
It has, of course, been difficult to draw the line,
and we have been glad of any information we
could get respecting the various commission men
and their dealings from our readers. We nave
received communication from w. II. Paulna-
mus president of the Puyallup and Sumner Fruit
Growers Association, and one of the men VINO
were most instrumental in having the law regu-
lating commission men passed by the washington
state legislature. This letter gives information
which we trust will be of advantage to our read
ers The communication follows:
"a great part of the readers OF your paper
reside on farms some of whom have produce to
sell through the commission houses and all or
whom will be interested in the law passed by the
last legislature for the purpose of regulating the
commission merchants. Much to my surprise,
quite few of the commission merchants nave
raised serious objections to some of its provisions
AS | instrumental in having the Dill drawn,
and helped to some extent in it's passage, l am
naturally interested in it's enforcement We can
not determine whether the law is of any value
unless it is enforced. If part OF the commission
houses act under the law and try to comply with
it's provisions it is certainly unfair to them I'M
less the rest of the dealers are forced to do the
same.
'In order to make the law effective, it occurs
to me that all of the growers should conlne their
shipments to licensed commission houses. In al

THE CAR SHORTAGE.

Farmers of the Yakima and Wenatchee Valleys
complaining of the treatment they are receiV-
ing this year at the hands of the railroads, who
have been very negligent in supplying cars for
the heavy fruit-shipments.
It would seem that the experience the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific railroads have had
in the past would have been sufficient to have
taught them few things about the movement OF
traffic at certain times of the year. Either they
have not learned this lesson, having learned
it, too Indifferent to profit by it, and make
provisions ahead of time for sufficient number
of cars to handle these heavy movements OF
crops.
Of course there is always the claim that the
demands of traffic have not caused sufficient
movement of cars to the coast to enable them to
supply empties for eastern shipments. The farm
ers are not the only ones who hear this excuse
The lumbermen and other heavy shippers have
also been forced to put up with it, But 1t is a
question whether this excuse is legitimate. In
the case of the fruit-growers, there is a reason
ably definite time each year when the crops must
be moved, and the railroads have months to pro-
vide against this contingency. The fact that
movement of freight west has not made 1t con-
venient to supply empties for Eastern shipment
doesn't excuse the railroads for not making pro-
vision to handle these eastern shipments. Under
suffrance from the government and the people, the
roads are granted privileges, provided they handle
the business of the territory they through in
satisfactory manner If they do not do this
they have right to the liberation which the
people and the government extend to them
