STATE RIGHTS IN 4 USTR 4LI4.

The State rights question is sticking it's menacing head up in Australia
 MT. Carruthers. the premier of New South Wales, in speaking recently of the Colonial Conference to be held in England in April next, said that it seemed strange that the Imperial gov ernment should exclude the individual States of Australia from its proceed ings, The Australian Federal Consti- tuition, he observed, provided that the rights of the States should remain in tact, except where otherwise expressly stipulated. The British government proposed to go further-to take away the right of the States to be heard on questions purely within their purview, and to enlarge the scope of the ope- ration of the Commonwealth Constitu- ton, apparently confusing the Com
 monwealth with the Canadian Consti- tuition, which took over everything and empowered the relegation of certain matters to the individal States. The Australian States, on the other hand, controlled everything except what they

Public notices of comprehensive in- creases in the postal, telegraph and telephone charges has been given in Austria. Rates on local letters in Vienna and charges for money orders are also to be raised considerably. Telephone subscribers will have to pay rates from 20 to 200 per cent. higher than those recently in force The gov ernment asserts that these increases are necessary in order to provide funds for the higher pay which is to be granted to postal officials and also for the extension of the telephone system. Notwithstanding this explanation the increase has aroused much indignation, especially among the commercial classes, which point out that at a time when all civilized countries are en- deavoring to provide cheaper postal facilities the Austrian government ought not to be making it's own postal system more expensive.

Plant memory is problem for ths tnquisitive botanist, says the Dundee Advertiser. In 1901 plant allied to the squash and pumpkin was taken to New York from the desert of Sonora, in Mexico, and since then 1t has been kept-without watering-in a strange climate $500 miles from home. During the six weeks of rain in the desert the plant grows its leaves and flowers and perfects its seed. Then it dries up and leaves only a water-flled gourd, which thick, hard shell seals against animals and evaporation. The transplanted specimen still remembers the rainy season of six weeks. It wakes, sends out rootlets, stems and leaves, and then dries up again until the following year.

COMMITTED SENTENCE
FROM IMPRISONMENT TO FINE

OLYMPIA, Aug. Ex-Governor Mead
has committed the sentence of Albert
Wilson to a fine of $3.50. Wilson was
convicted of cattle stealing in the SUI
perior court of Thurston county in the
summer of 1905, and was sentenced to
imprisonment in the state penitentiary
for a term of three years.
The governor was influenced in
granting this communication by consid-
GRAFTON of the character borne by Will
son as vOuched for by many of the
most prominent citizens of Tenino, his
home town, and the present circum-
stances of the convicted man. Besides
his invalid wife and family, Wilson
has dependent upon him the wife and
three children of his brother in law,
Peter Currie, who was his co-defend-
ant in the trial, and who committed SUI
icide. He is also supporting an in
valid sister of his wife's. These people
are all entirely dependent upon Will
SOL. and deprived of his support, would
be placed in a deplorable position.

ROYAL GREETING
FOR |RR|CATORS
CALIFORNIA ERECT SPECIAL RE
CEPTlON HEADQUARTERS AND
NAME COMMITTEES.

Delegates to the Fifteenth nation
al irrigation congress will find royal
welcome awaiting them at the city's
gates when they arrive at Sacramento,
California, next week. A special re-
ception headquarters has been erected
near the railroad station and here the
visitors will be met by a special re-
ception committee composed of the
most prominent ladies and gentlemen
of California's capital city.
The headquarters is on the land
of the railroad company, ard only a
few yards from the depot, on the street
leading to the principal business sec
ton of the city. 1t is especially de-
signed and built for this purpose, and
contains all the conveniences that will
be needed by weary travellers.
There will be a great reception hall
adorned with palms ard other floral
decorations, cooled by electric fans and
made doubly inviting by the presence
of the chivalry and beauty of the city.
There will be retiring rooms for Ia
dies and for gentlemen a parcel room
and a full corps of hotel clerks, por-
tiers and bell boys to assign and guide
! the guests to their rooms in various
parts of the city.
The plans for receiving and housing
the city's guests have been worked out
very deliberately, and there will be no
annoyances or delay. Automobiles,
carriages and carryalls will supplement
a splendid street-car service and guides
or pOrters will accompany every guest
to his rooms.
No more elaborate plans were ever
made for the reception of delegates to
great convention. CALIFORNIA; are
all looking to the capital to show what
| California can do in the way of re-
ception and entertainment, and the
people of the capital city are on their
mettle.

WILL NOT PICK
HOPS THIS YEAR
PRICES WILL NOT JUSTIFY GATH.
ERiNG OF CROP AND IT WILL
ROT ON VINES.

TACOMA, Aug. 2s.-Many Of the
hop growers of this state will not pick
their crops this fall but will allow
them to rot on the vines. This an
nouncement is made by dealers here,
ing into the city for a week past to
see if it is not possible for them to
contract their crops at price and har-
vesting their yards. The hopmen give
the low price of hops as the cause for
their action, or rather for their mac
ton. Hopmen here all agree that the
industry is going through grave cr1-
sis all over the Pacific coast, and that
there will have to be a REIMBURSEMENT
of conditions heretofore governing the
production and marketing of the hops
in order to meet new and paramount
situations that have recently arisen
For instance, in the past few years
the cost Of raising hops has increased
from 5, 6, and Z cents a pound to and
III Genus, accounted lOl Wy tliC iiSi Se'SSN
cost of labor ana materials and the
advance in the prices of living.
Farmers of Washington who have
hopyards find now that after having
expended from four to five cents a
! pound in cultivat ting their hops, they
| have yet to pay from five to six cents
to pick, dry ard bale their crop. They
say that the present conditions of sup
ply and demand of and for hops render
it extremely improbable that they will
get prices of more than ST xOr seven
| cents pound. This money for pick
| ing, drying and baling a great many
| of the growers do Lot have, and the
banks are not willing to furnish it and
| take the crop with it's uncertainties as
security.
Dealers Urge Going Ahead.
Hop dealers of Tacoma admit that
from the present outlook there will be
a large number of yards in the state
in which the hops will not be picked,
but assert that the growers are entirely
too pessimistic Instead of prices be-
| ing SIX or seven Genus Luz tIle coiiiiiIS
/ hop crop, they declare it will not be
less than 10 cents for a first-class ar
ticle. Even with hops selling at seven
cents, they hold that it will pay the
growers to harvest their yards, as they
| will be assured of at least one cent
profit over the picking and marketing
expenses.
The Washington crop, if all the yards
should be picked, will amount to $4,000
bales, according to reports that have
been received here from all portions
Of the state where hops are grown.

From balance of the appropriation

purcased for the seasons run of the

March 4.

years. Notwithstanding this, the out

to that of last year with excellent
jute, ard far in excess of former years.
This has been accomplished by giving
the convict operators a certain amount
to do each day, and when done ending
the days labor for the convict, thus
accomplishing most excellent results
over the former method of punishment
if work was not performed.
