DEATH OF ARTHUR M'EWEN

The death of Arthur McEwen re-
moves from the list of the world
editorial writers man of tremendous
l,- aonality and extraordinary versa
tilIty.
He earned his first reputation on the
ConIsJock in Nevada and before his
death became a force to be reckoned
with in the United States.
He had a great deal of vigor and
also a great deal of finnish to his
work and a style and method of his
own which was original to the last
degree. He hated oppression and in
justice in all its forms and DISCUSSES
and he never bowed his knee or his
pen to wealth or power. He had a
happy knack of stripping the mask
from the face of false pretense and ne
laid the lash of his splendid invective
upon the back of humbug and hypo
cracy all his life. The writer knew
him intimately for nearly forty years
he was not writing as he felt and his
keen intelligence directed a pen thai
was always a terror to injustice.
He was one of the most brillian
conversationalists in the United
States. The amount of work he wal
able to accomplish was something
tremendous. His supurb independence
of character and his courage made
him an ideal editorial writer and thu
Hearst newspapers will miss his worl
in many departments.

ANOTHER MILLION FOR
ENTRANCE TO SEATTLE

Seattle, Feb. 4.-The last chapter
in the bitter and long drawn fight of
Hill against the entrance of Harri-
mans Washington and Oregon line
into Seattle was finally settled Satur-
day, when 100000 was paid to
sixty property owners for the right of
way of the Hartman railway into the
city, due north over the tide flats to
the terminal point at Fifth avenue

So, 900, 900 depot will be built.
The right of way provides for Harri-
man strip sixty feet wide through
the tide flats, over fourteen city blocks,
allowing of sufficient space for the
laying of four lines of track outside of
this stlip. Provision is made for joint
ownership of switching tracks.
j. D. Farrell, representative of Har-
riman in this city. has been summoned
to New York to conclude the business
that has kept the Hill and Hartman
interests at loggerheads. Hartman
has promised that the depot he will
build in Seattle will be one Of the
finest in the West, to cost practically

A Chin.m.n,s Charity.

The Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Children often discovers
cases Of unselfishness and unlooked-for
tenderness toward neglected children
on the part Of poor people. The Brook
lyn Eagle prints story, told In the
children's court, Of Lee 10y, China
man, who took two motherless babies
into his home and tried to give them
an education.
Il wanted them to grow up like
American children" he said to the JUS
tice. II wanted them to be Christians,
and learn things"
When the children were old enough
he took them to the Church Of the
TRANSPORTATION, Ito learn religion and
be Americans" as he put it.
The care Of the children grew too
much for Lee 10y, and he married.
Then financial disaster came upon the
house. Struggle as he would. Lees
luck continued to 60 against him until
they were all slowly starving.
Then his wife wrote to the society.
Lees story was corroborated by sew
eral witnesses, and the children were
placed in a good home.
Lee seemed heart-broken at losing
them, but when he was told that he
might visit them as often as he wished.
he left the court with beaming fAce-

CONCURRENT MEASURES
Committee Agrees ON Identical Bills to
Regulate Fisheries.

N0BO1219 CI80Gf1eo,
Portland, Or, Feb. 5.-The length
ening of the closed season for salmon
fishing and the abolisning of summer
Sunday fishing are the main features
Of Identical bills to be introduced in
the Oregon and Washington legisla-
lures as result Of the conference in
Portland of the concurrent committee
appointed by the legislatures of the
two states. Another measure that was
favored by the concurrent committee
is one that will provide for the exter-
mination of seals and sea lions at the
mouth Of the Columbia.
The concurrent committee will also
ask that each legislature appoint a
committee to investigate the Colum-
bia river fisheries and learn what can
be done for the benefit of the indus
try, this committee also to investigate
Pend d'Oreille and Payette lakes and
Salmon river and connecting lakes in
Idaho, and to attempt to devise plan
for fishway around the Cello falls
iu the Columbia river, so that salmon
can easily reach the upper waters.
Each committee is to consist of three
senators and two representatives, and
report it's findings to the legislatures
two years hence.

CLARK SAYS SHIPPERS
ARE PARTLY TO BLAME

Kansas. City, Mo-, Feb. 4.-Edward
E. Clark, member of the interstate
commerce commission, is here to hear
grievances of shippers against rail-
roads. In an interview he said:
'We have studied the car shortage
and demurrage questions, but the law
gives the commission no jurisdiction.
We aye in favor of legislation which
will give the commission some power,
especially at certain times of the year.
! ''But the railroads are not wholly
to blame. In the Northwest there was
the usual cry of 'desolation' and star
vation' and 'suffering'-al because
the railroad swould not furnish cars.
The consumers, Of course, did not
think of buying fuel until the cold
came. The dealer had no stock on
hand. He had not filed his bins, but
each had few cars filled with coal on
the sidetracks. Then began the de-
mand for more coal-all at once. The
railroads in stormy, cold weather must
furnish cars, gather up the 'empties'
and send them, filled with coal, to the
dealers at the same time. Gould they
do it? Impossible' And never a
thought of how this annual condition
might be averted by the dealers and
consumers themselves.
''In a measure, Mr.. Hartman was
right when he said at Kanass City:
I'VE have plenty of cars if you'll olny
unload Them The railroads could do
much to improve their terminal facili-
ties, but they are not entirely to
blame. They have spoiled the ship
pers, however, by granting such long
demurrage time, always a means of
meeting competition.

THEATRICAL TRUST INDICTED
Charge of Conspiracy Made Again,
Well Known Managers.

New York, Feb. 2.-The grand jury
has returned an indictment against
the so-called theatrical trust, charging
conspiracy in restraint of trade. The
indictment is against Nixon and Zim-
norman, Klaw & Erlanger, Charles
Frohman and Al Hayman, who are al
legged to constitute the trust.
The indictment sets forth in detail
the acts of the so-called trust and its
efforts to prevent certain theatrical
enterprises from playing in any other
than independent theaters.
As an instance of the alleged evil OF
the trust the case of Sara Berharndt
was cited in the Indictment. When
she came to this country in 1905, it
was alleged, she was forced to play in
independent houses throughout the
country and in some cities where she
could not get the houses she was forced
to play under tents. At that time she
said, according to the indictment,
that, if necessary, she would gladly
come to this country and prosecute
the men who forced her to this incon-
venience. May Irwin is alleged also
to have suffered by reason OF the COM
bination of theatrical managers.

OFFER OF FRENCH BISHOP
Proposed that Churches Be Leased from
Mayors By Priests.


Paris, Feb. 2.-The proposition
which the French bishops, with the
approval Of the pope. have now submit
ted to the government, seems to offer
the first real prospect of an adjust
ment of the conflict between church
and state under the separation regime.
The model contract which the bish-
ops have submitted provides for the
virtual lease of the churches in per-
petuity to the parish priests by the
mayors. The leases, which carry q
stipulation engaging the communal,
municipal and state authority not to
interfere with the administration of
the church and parish, are invalid
except by express ratification Of the
bishop and become null the moment
the parish priest loses the bishops au-
thorvization. The bishops must act
together to insure the acceptance Of
the contracts everywhere or nowhere.
As yet, however, there is no indica-
tion that the proposition. will be accep-
ted by the government.

borne on heads. At the edge Of the
forest, reduced to single nle and mile
OF more long, it plunges into an at-
moephere Of gloomy, fantastic wierd.
ness. and disappears among the silent
shadows Of the giant trees.
The bare feet Of the natives sink
nolselessly In generations Of rotting
leaves The air IL humid and enervat-
Ing. The procession glides along a. IL
oppressed by some awesome presence.
It Is a world Of black shadows and
mysterious depths. A hot breath, laden
with sickly and overpowering perfume,
rises In sitting gusts till the brain reels
and one longs for air and light and
sight Of green fields.
Suddenly Is given a glimpse Of para.
dise-a view Of the heavens where
some great tree has fallen, leaving Z
rent in the forest dome. In that tenn
porary clearing nature seems to have
lavished all her gifts. Festoons Of glo-
rious orchids stretch out. capriciouA
blooms, and wild tamarinds, with ex-
quisite plush-like fruit invite the
touch. Countless butterflies hover about
fruit and flowers.
In the caravan every member ac1
now independently Of the rest No
sooner does he pitch upon spot which
seems propitious than down comes the
load or his head. A luncheon of yams
and water refreshes him, and goina
from tree to tree, he makes gashes In
the bark and hangs his calabashes to
catch the sap. Then feeling fully sat-
isfed with his labors, he casts himself
down upon the ground, and lies there,
needless Of the crawling legions Of in
sects.
Now and again he lazily rises and
makes the rounds Of his calabashes, to
see that all goes well. If he is indus
trious he will thus collect three or four
pounds Of rubber in day. The whole
caravan will average perhaps two
pounds to each person. When the Gala
bashes are all full or night is coming
on the return march begins. The home
coming Is marked by general congratu-
lations on the part Of those who stayed
behind, while every proud owner of a
calabash or two Of rubber recounts ter.
rible adventures, in the shape Of spooks,
leopards and what not, which have be-
fallen him In the forest.
The rubber must then be boiled in an
iron pot to make it coagulate. Rolled
into ball, It Is then carried to q
trading station to be sold. As the pay.
ment goes by weight, stone or piece
Of iron or lead Is often placed in the
center Of the ballEwhich the white man
discovers by cutting up the ball before
he weighs 1t. The negroes seem to de-
light In the work when carried on thus
in their own way, and in British and
French West Africa no difficulty is
found in persuading them to do so. A
a result, the rubber exports from the
west coast are increasing with great
rapid1ty.

Origin Of the Circus.

All the boys and girls-and grown

perhaps they would be glad to know
when and where that popular form Of
show originated. 1t Is said that II
dates back in ITO, when Philip Ashley,
a discharged English soldier, improvis-
ed a ring at Lambeth, England, and
gave exhibitions Of Craftsmanship. His
success was great, and soon afterward
he built a rude circus near Westmin.
ster Bridge, on the site now occupied
by the building that bears his name
There was no roof over the original
structure, except that part Of. 1t occu.
pied by the spectators, the ring being
In the open air. His wife took part
in the performance, being the first wo.
man to enter the arena. This venture
was 80 successful that Ashley was able,
In 1850, to put up large and handsom,
amphitheater.

Nav KIND Of Lumber Barge

Everett, Feb. GA new method of
shipping lumber has been invented by
Capt. J. F. Dundon, Of the Puget
Sound Timber Preserving Company,
