WOOL GROWERS MEET.
Bitterly Opposed to Government For
est Reserve Policy.

Salt Lake City.-Belated railway
trains caused tardy opening Thurs
day of the forty-third annual conven-
ton of the National Wool Growers
Association. A train bearing 500
sheepmen from Wyoming arrived at 10
O'Clock in the morning, but the 300
delegates from Idaho and about half
that number from Montana did not
arrive until nearly noon.
DR.. J. NJ. Wilson of Douglas, Wyom-
ing. western vice president of the asso-
citation, who will preside during the
three days of the convention, in the
absence of the president United States
Senator Francis K. Warren. came in
with the Wyoming delegation.
1t developed early that the dele
gates, almost to a man are bitterly
hostile to the forest reserve policy of
the government. This sentiment was
vigorously voiced by the vice president
and set the convention wild with en-
thusiasm. and the defense of Chief
Forester Pinchot of the agricultural
department was coldly received.
AT the climax of his address DR.. Will
son declared that the transformation
of the ranges into forest reserves
from which the sheep are excluded
will put Wyoming back twenty years
and reduce her wealth.
Proceeding, he also discussed the
transportation question. saying that
the facilities Of the roads should be
ample in view of the increased equip
ment within the past year. The
trouble, he suggested, is due to lack
of speed, rather than to lack of cars.
Pinchot took the broad ground that
the sheepmen represent only a small
proportion of the people of the United
States, and that their interests must
give way, II necessary, to the welfare
of the Nation. He expressed his per-
sonal sympathy, but added:
This question of ranges is your
question; not our question. Our con-
Germ is for the homesteader. The gov
ernment wants to raise children in
stead of lambs"

A New York company has begun the
manufacture of a specially made rope
for balloon purposes. One prominent
aeronaut has given an order for 10000
feet. Heretofore these explorers of
the upper regions have been COM
PEELED to import the rope needed for
their excursions. The kind now being
made in America is hand-spun from
the finest fiber and laid up with the
utmost care, so as to produce the
greatest possible tensile strength
with q minimum weight.

The Educated Negro.

DR.. Booker Washington has contrib
uted to the Montgomery Journal a
long statement regarding the gradu-
ates OF Tuskegee, in which he again
declares that he is unable to find a
single one who has been convicted OF
crime In either a state or q United
States court. OF such a record any
best answer to the unenlightened
whites in the south who still believe
that education harms" the negro. II
he had reported 25 per cent OF Grim
fnality, there would still be reason
for his carrying on his work, says the
New York Post; that he has been
able to show SO clean a record is more
than ever a reason why his hands
should be strengthened, north and
south DR.. Washington is confident
that what is true of Tuskegee. Is
practically true Of the other indus
trial schools for his race in the
south. Certainly. Hampton has as
fine record. To his statement, the
principal of Tuskegee has appended
list of his graduates and ex-students
who are now residing in Montgomery
city or county. OF ITO such graduates
or students who can be traced, all are
engaged in respectable and profitable
enterprises. They represent rs pro-
fessions and trades. there being %
carpenters. 6 blacksmiths, 9 teachers.

bricklayers. etc. Most of these ITO

Japanese VIII Raise Reets.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Greeley says: The first Japanese
in Weld county to become a land
owner is Eitaro Takeda, who
to-day purchased lis acres OF
land from John A. Moore in
the Godfrey bottoms near Evans for
s11,750. The land is all under cultiva.
tion, is excellent beet acreage, and it
is said the japanese will grow beets
there on large scale by contracting
it to his countrymen. Takeda is an
edecated Japanese, and his father an
official in the Japanese government.
Since the establishment of the beet
industry here, Takeda has been beet
contractor in the vicinity of Berthoud
and Greeley.

To Test Antl-Japanese Law.

San Francisco.-United States Dis
trict Attorney Devlin applied to the
Supreme Court for a writ of mandate
compelling the board of education to
admit Keikichi Aoki, ten-year-old
Japanese boy, to the Redding primary
school. He also commenced suit in
the United States Circuit Court for
the same purpose. The foundation OF
this suit, which will test the right of
the local board of education to bar
children of Japanese parentage from
the public schools, was laid when Kei-
kichi Aolzi demanded admittance to
the Redding primary school and was
refused permission to enter.

What a Mans Beard Tells.

"You can tell some of mans habits
and read some of his traits Of charac-
ter from his beard.' said the old bar
Der, II "a man spends his days at a
desk beside window his hair and
beard will grow faster on the side to-
ward the window. Plants and boards
both flourish under the influence Of
sunlight. Why, one Of my customers
found the effects Of the side light SO
pronounced thatih changed his Office
desk to face the window. Another In
teresting fact ID that, when a man Ii
up late or works long hours, he needs
a shave oftener than IL he took the
usual amount Of sleep. That's because
in being awake he keeps the Vital proc
esses Of his body in greater activity
than when asleep. The growth Of the
hair depends largely on the circulation
Of the blood, and the heart slows down
when we sleep. ~ Kansas City Star.

In a fog at sea; the toll Of a bell
buoy is singularly grave and solemn,
well matched by the weird note of q
whistling buoy. Unfortunately the
value of both is lessened In foggy
weather from there being but little
motion Of the sea. Nothing, too, is
more difficult than to distinguish in a
fog the direction from which. sound
comes. This Is In part due doubtless
to the interference offered to the
straight course of the waves carrying
the sound, but also probably to- the
absence of the normal, although I'M
suspected, coordination of eye and
ear in locating the origin Of sound.

A North Atlantic Curiosity

seaweed which kept its place presum-
ably for centuries = said an old sea
captain. st occupies an immense
eddy about the fifty-sixth degree Of
west longitude and between the TWEEN
V-second and twenty-eighth degrees Of
north latitude. There Is great differ
ence Of opinion regarding the origin Of
this floating mass. Some believe it to
be detached from rocks at a considera-
bic depth in the latitude where 1t
floats. Others suppose it to come from
the shores of the northern seas, having
been detached from the rocks by the
violence of the winds. Some again Inn
agine that it comes from the rocky
shores Of Florida and Mexico, while,
many others agree with me in beliey-
ing that it has never had any other
than its present place Of abode. No.
one has ever seen it attached to rocks,
nor have roots ever been discovered
belonging to it." 5a n N IA sA Fs

Right Handed and Left Lsuosd.

Most people would think that as man
Is, with very few exceptions. fright
handed" he would be at the same time
right legged" But this is not the
case. Almost every right handed man
uses his left leg~more than his right.
For Instance, most people find 1t much
more natural to go around circles to
the right than to the left. That is be-
cause they start with the left leg. Be-
ing stronger, it is more readily brought
into action, and 1t Is on this account
that bodies of soldiery always start to
march with the left foot. Almost all
courses for foot races are made out for
running to the right, and dancers will
indorse the statement that the majority
of movements are far more easily ex-
ecuted in that direction. The left foot
is the one that is placed IN the stirrup
for mounting a horse, and in jumping
1t is from the left foot that the athlete
takes off," Thus It will be seen, as a
general rule, fright handed people are
left legged
