 Prof. Hewett, the sleight of hand snowman, went north on the last Dol phin probably in search for the re- mains of another relative lost in the wilds of interior Alaska.

 It's an i'll wind that blows nobody good. The strike at the Tacoma shelter is altogether likely to blow good in the direction of the Alaska smelters, particularly that at Hadley, since it will operate to loosen up the stringency in the coke supply necessary to their operation. The management of the Tacoma concern announces that the plant will remain idle for an indefinite period, and that in the meantime it will divide its ore supply with other smelters on the sound, while it is certain that the stoppage will let loose the coke which it would otherwise consume. Much. if not all, this coke will come to Alaska. thus insuring a renewal of operations at the Hadley shelter, with the promise of long and con- tinuous run when it again starts up, which will probably be immediately after the receipt of the first cargo promised to arrive not later than the 26th inst.

TIE IRRIGATION CONGRESS
Fifteenth Annual Meeting Open
In Sacramento.
Vice President Fairbanks Made
Speech and the President Sent q
Special Message.

Sacramento, Cal, Sept. 3.-Marked
by large attendance and much en-
thusiasm, the 18th national irrigation
congress opened here Monday after
noon in the irrigation palace which
has seating accommodations for about
$500.
Gov. Chamberlain of Oregon, presi
dent OF the congress, responded to the
addresses of welcome.
Vice President Fairbanks was given
an enthusiastic reception when he
arose to deliver his address.
In the course of his address he said:
Zone Of the most promising things
In the extension OF irrigation is the
development of the beet sugar indus
try. This is subject of no mere local
importance. We are sending abroad
more than $10O,0O0,000 year for su
gar. This enormous sum goes to the
enrichment of sugar producers In for.
eign countries. This is an unwise
policy, and should not be continued
forever This tremendous annual
drain should be stopped. By pursuing
a rational course, we can produce from
our own soil and refine in our own
factories all Of the sugar needed for
our use. 1t Is readily to be seen that
the cultivation of sugar beets in the
arid and semi-arid regions will be a
source Of unfailing and expanding
wealth In the future. To fail to utilize
to the utmost our opportunities to de-
veIop this great industry and retain
within our own borders all or nearly
all of the enormous sum of 100000
900 annually, now sent abroad, would
seem to be the part Of inexpressible
folly.
Clifford Pinchot, government forest
or and personal representative OF
President Roosevelt at the congress.
delivered the message of the country'S
chief executive, which came by tele-
graph. Following is the message In
part: =
Gentlemen: send you heary greet
ings and my earnest wishes for the
fullest success of your convention.
congratulate you on the progress OF
the great movement you represent.
There is no movement more emphati-
cally for the benefit Of the small farm
er and the small ranchman. The
reclamation service and the forest SER
vice are directly adapted to help the
small man make and maintain a pros
porous home; and they are doing 1t.
These services were recently inspect
ed on the ground by the secretary Of
the interior, and the secretary of agri-
culture who have them in charge and
I congratulate you on the high stand
ards on integrity and efficiency they
have attained"

KNEW BRIDGE WAS UNSAFE.
The Coin pse Of the Quebec Structure
Was Expected Long Before
II Occurred.

Pittsburg, Sept. Sit became
known here Monday that the collapse
of the Quebec cantilever bridge, the
largest structure Of its kind in the
world, which fell last Thursday, carry
ing 70 men to death, had not only been
feared for soma time, but had been
forecast positively week before.
Forty-five of the workmen on the
bridge noticed that the rivets we're
giving, and several Of them who
reached Pittsburg Monday told that
the condition of the bridge was known,
to some extent, by all the men work
ing on 1t, but many of them were per
suaded to remain at work by the
bosses. II was expected by SOME that
the consecting span would be com
pleted in time to prevent serious trou'
Bile. One Of the IS men, struc
tural iron worker. who quit work two
days before the collapse, is R. H. King
Of this city.
Il quit work because l knew thai
the bridge was unsafe a week before
Il fell" he said. Everybody knew TIN
same thing, but the bosses argued
many out Of their fears, We knew tht
train and expected the bridge to &
at any minute. There were many who

BURGLARS SHOT POLICEMAN
When Caught In the Act Of Rob
bling a Store.
One When Cornered In Swamp Com
mItted Suicide the Other Escaped
From Pursuers.

Lyndhurst, N. J. Sept. 3.-George
Cassidy, q policeman, was shot down
and killed early Monday while endeav-
oring to- arrest two burglars who had
been caught in the act Of robbing a
store. The burglars were then pur'
sued by q crowd, and rather than sub
NIT to capture, one Of them killed him
self In a swamp. The other burglar
escaped.
Cassidy had arrested the men and
started with his prisoners for the sta
ton houss, when one Of them drew a
revolver from his pocket and pressing
It against Cassldy's coat pulled the
trigger. Cassidy fell dead and the two
men ran away. The shooting aroused
the neighborhood and a crowd gave
chase. The burglars separated, one OF
them making for the Passaic river.
When the crowd pressed too close the
burglar turned and fired a fusillade OF
shots, but no one was hit. The burg
lar then ran into the swamp, trying to
find a place where he could swim the
river, but the mud and slime dragged
him down and Ae became exhausted
in his efforts to. escape. Realizing
that he would be captured he used the
last cartridge in his revolver to shoot
himself He was dead when his pur-
suers reached him.

Norfolk, Sept. 3.-William Randolph
Hearst of New York and Samuel Com
pers, president Of the American Fed,
GRAFTON of Labor, were the principal
Speakers at Monday great Labor day
celebration at the jamestown exposl-
ton. The weather was clear and
thousands OF people from all parts OF
tidewater Virginia attended. The ex-
erclses were held at the reviewing
stand on the Lee parade grounds, In
part Mr.. Hearst said;
Labor day should rank with the
Fourth of July as characteristic
American holiday. The Fourth OF July
commentaries the means by which
we gained our independence as ma
ton, and Labor day commentaries
the. means :, by which we have
made our nation the most pro-
gressive, the most prosperous OF
an" in the world In this coun-
try labor is universal and is un'
iyersally honored and appreciated. In
this country there is no working class,
but every man worthy OF the name Is
a working man. In this country the
mechanics work, the farmers work,
the clerks work and even the million
aires work. We have no aristocracy
save that of intelligence and industry
and the proudest title of our most sue
cessful millionaire Is Captain Of In
dustry."
have no patience with the pre-
judices which exist between alleged
classes when the CLASSES themselves
do not really exist. There is no rea-
son for hostility between employer
and employe, between capitalist and
wage Garner. Capital is but the ac-
cumulation Of wealth 'wnicn- employer
and employee create together. Wages
are but the division Of profits and as
long as the division is just and equit-
able there is no occasion for conflicts.
If the division is not just, 1t can, al
ways be made so by arDltratloh anu
there is still no occasion for conflict.
A condition of class such as has been
developed in Colorado is q curse to
this country. There should be no
prejudice entertained by the capital
list toward the laborer and there
should be no prejudice by the laborer
toward the capitalist. There should
be an appreciation Of the essential
part which each plays in the creation
of wealth. The man who digs the
precious metal from the earth is worth
his wage. The man who tells him to
find the gold deserves his profit too.
The great financial promoters, or
ganizers, executives of America, are
worthy of recognition and reward.

their work is absolutely necessary to
