ZIMMERMAN SHOW FIGHT
Raise $4,000 to Oppose Proposed
Freight Rate

TACOMA, July 27.-Lumbermen will
fight the advance in the fir lumber
rate toNthe last ditch. Such was the
opinion expressed by almost SO men,
bers of the Pacific Coast Lumber Man
ufacturers' association at an informal
gathering yesterday morning at the
Tacoma hotel, opening the semi-an-
nual meeting. The schedule of the
new rates was read by Victor H.
Beckman, secretary of the association
The course of action was discussed in
formally, some of the questions being
as to what could be gained by ap-
plying to the interstate commerce
commission. Delay is feared for it
will give the railroads an opportunity
to put the rae into effect. and an
effort will be made to enjoin the COM
panies from making the advance.
Thinks It a Bluff.
George S. Long. Of the Weyerhaeu-
ser company, said he did not believe
the railroads meant business, but were
only bluffing. 1t was shown by the
remarks of several that the RAILROAD DIS
have been considering the advance for
a lumber of years. When Hill first
secured control Of the roads he re-
duced the rates. Since that time steps
nave been taken to advance the rates
and make them stick.

and thai of the Union Shippers, COW

observes the Puyallup Tribune. Hal
the present facilities been available
last year the crop of 1906. consisting
of 10000 crates, handled by the as
Sociation, could have been taken care
of without the least effort BY next
year. if the present plans are carried
out, the arrangements for handling the
crop, which will probably be as large
as that of last season, will be very
much superior to those now existing.
Every acre of idle land should be
planted TO raspberries and black-ber
ries. in anticipation of such a consi-
ton. 1t will pay more per acre in
this way than in any other crop that
the farmer can produce.

Darrow is more than a hired attorney

rather than less when it is known that
Haywood's library contains several of
Darrow's idealistic books, and that

FOOD Tor reflection and apprehension in

this combination of idealism with what
seems to the world at large as a reck-

Czolgosz and Herr Most and Emma
Goldman have this same idealistfc

This matter has been discussed

In the rush outside the city to the

consideration than has heretofore fall

The city park is located above the
old water reservoirs between Alder
and Whitman streets. With natural
subirrigation furnished by the water
from the many springs near the park
it requires but little effort to keep the
grass green and the trees in good
shcpe.
But the park has been neglected. Its
beautiful drives are unsprinkled and
its lawns are unkempt. To seek rest

is being done to add regularly to the
