Planting Cocoanuts In Samoa.

E. G. Simion, a cocoanut planter of
Samoa, who is in Seattle, declares that
the German government is saving the
world from possible cocoanut famine
by having the old and dead trees in
the domain under is jurisdiction re-
placed by young and healthy trees
each year. According to Simion
there is no immediate danger of the
cocoanut supply becoming exhaused,
but the market for the commodity s
growing better each year. The recent
large foreign experiments in the culti-
walton of copra, the dried kernel Of
the cocoanut. from which cocoanut oil
is made, is said by Simion to also be
an important reason why new trees
should be planted. The planter de-
clares that the United States is neg
lecting it's holdings in Samoa, while
the various foreign powers are taking
advantage of every opportunity to
make money on the island.

They Went to Church.

Attendance at church service is ob-
ligatory upon the part of soldiers at
certain English posts, and amusing
stories are told of the excuses that
are sometimes resorted to in order to
escape this requirement.
At one post where a number of re-
cruits were temporary stationed an
old sergeant was ordered to ascertain
to what religious sect each man be-
lOnged, and to see that he joined the
party told off for that particular form
Cf worship.
Some of the men had no liking for
church, and declared themselves to be
atheists. Bet the sergeant was a
Scotsman and man of experience
'Ah, weel," said he, 'then ye hae no
need to kape holy the Sabbath, and
the stables hae ma been cleaned oot
lately" And he ordered them to clean
out the stables. This occupied practi-
cally the whole day, and the men lost
their usual Sunday afternoons leave.
Next Sunday a broad smile crept
over the sergeant when he heard that
the atheists had joinei the Church of
England

MARINE DIVERS QUEER JOB.

dangered Life and Property.
That necessity is the mother of
invention" was never mere forcibly
made true than recently. wi en- a sub
marine diver, clad in his under water
garb, was sent to the store OF Hollis
& Rich to put a stop to the leak of
overpowering fumes of ammonia which
were filling the place.
Shortly after 3 p. m. the cap Of the
big tank which is filled with ammonia
used in making the freezing mixture
connected with the cold storage plant
blew off and the deadly fumes filled
the cold storage plant and gradually
made their way through the walls to
the store itself and up through the ell
evator well so that the entire building
was filled with them.
The proprietors of the place were at
their wits end as to how to put stop
to the leak before their stock was dam
aged. Somebody in the crowd that
gathered suggested a deep sea diving
outfit and Mr.. Hollis jumped at the
suggestion, and running to a telephone
got diving concern to send a man
up at once prepared to make the most
curious diving feat ever accomplished
by any diver
Putting en- his garb, the man enter
ed the building where it seemed that
no man could live. His assistant
pumped fresh air to him and the diver
worked away without great discomfort.
fitting new cap on the tank.
He was inside the building less
than half an hour before he returned
and told the people who waited for
him outside that the task was accom-
plished and that in a few moments
the building would be free of the
fumes.-BOston Advertiser.

A NOTABLE VICTORY

Gov. Hughes won a great
victory over the race track gam
blers, in securing the passage of
his measure to make race track
betting a misdemeanor to be
punished by Imprisonment with
out the alternative of a fine.
The special session of the legis-
lature has just adjourned after
one of the most sensational fights
on record. The house had pass
ed the bill but it was hung up in
the senate by a tie vote, one
member having died. This was
at the regular session. Mean
time the governor called a special
session and personally champion
ed the cause of the candidate to
be chosen to succeed the man
who had died. The governor
won and Senator Wallace took
his seat and stood by the COVER
nor on every ballot. Sen
ator Foelker of Brooklyn, who
had been at home recovering
from an operation for appended
tbs, at great risk to his life made
the trip to Albany and voted for
the governors measure. This
put the measure through the
senate by a vote of 26 to 25 and
the governor of course signed
the bill. Senator Foelker de-
serves to be ranked as a hero.
Governor Hughes has won a
notable victory and with the en-
forcement of the law the race
track gamblers, who disgrace a
legitimate sport with their dis
reputable practices, will be made
to feel that the people want and
will have a square deal.

CANNON'S "CON" GAME

If ever a "con' game was play
ed upon the public it was by that
Joe Cannon committee appointed
to investigate the paper trust.
After spending weeks at it's work
the committee gravely reported
that it couldn't find any trust.
They further alleged that the
increase in paper was caused by
the increased cost of pulp wood.
Now comes the international
Falls Budget, which is published
right in the heart Of the pulp
wood region of Minnesota, with
the allegation that agents of the
paper mills paid $4.OO more a
cord for pulp wood during the
winter of 19O6-O7 than they did
during that of 1907-O0. in other
words, the paper trust, while
charging consumers more for its
finished product was actually
paying less for the raw material
These are facts easily proven
And yet, in the face of these
facts Joe Cannon had the brazer
effrontery to name a committee
who couldn't discover any paper
trust. He appointed that com
ittee for that very purpose. Oh
course, being a creature whom
the trust owns body, soul anC
breeches, he couldn't do any
thing else. Isn't it about time
that Cannon and his like were
relegated to the oblivion where
they belong?

Whales Plentiful bur Wild.

Capt. Porter of the steam whaler
Beluga, which arrived from the Arctic
Wednesday with 10000 pounds of
bone, seventy-two fox skins and one
bear skin, confirms the report from
Unalaska that the other ships of the
fleet are safe and are coming home
with big catches.
Capt. Porter who has been going to
the Arctic for many years, says that
never before were whales so plentiful
at this season. Nine whales fell before
the harpoons of the Beluga's whale
men. Capt. Porter added that he
never saw the whales so wild There
were thousands of them, but they were
very hard to catch. The Beluga lost
four whales which had been harpoon-
ed. In each case the wounded mammal
took refuge under the ice, which nec-
essitated cutting the line that held
him prisoner.

The Little Falls Transcript,
speaking editorially of the paper
manufacturing business, remarks
that the mill at that place has
profited by high prices but has
not made any effort to curtail its
output. That may be true, and
probably is, but some of that
output" should be, not curtailed
but thrown on the dump pile.
About half of the last ton The
Herald received from that same
Little Falls paper mill is such
rotten stuff it will hardly go
through the press or the folder.
But the price of $4,000 per ton
is all right, all right - for the
company. Oh no, there isn't any
paper trust.

JOHNSON STEPS ASIDE

Governor Johnson is out with
a statement that, under no cir
cumstances, will he be candl-
date for denomination to the
office of governor, and that If
nominated he will not accept.
The governors private secretary
paved the way for this statement
a few days previously, and now
comes the governor not only en-
dorsing that statement but 60
ing still further.
In thus early removing him,
self from the state political arena
the governor has taken a wise
step and one which the thinking
public expected him to take.
Governor Johnson is a rising
man, Of more than ordinary
ability and one in whom the pub
lie has confidence. By the sheer
force of his personality he has
risen from obscurity and power
ty to a position where the eyes
of the nation are turned upon
him as presidential possibility.
Governor johnson has served
Minnesota acceptably two terms
as governor. He has given the
state a good, honest administra
ton and his appointments gen
orally have been good. He has
played the political game wisely
and we'll, outwitting his op,
ponents in every contest. He is
a man of the people and as such
has a strong hold upon them.
The action of a small coterie
of Mr.. Bryan's supporters forced
Governor Johnson to be an ag-
gressive presidential candidate;
otherwise Minnesota s delegation
would have given him compli-
mentary vote at Denver and then
swung into line for the Nebras-
kan. Mr.. Bryan will be nomina-
ted in July, and defeated in Nov
ember. Mr.. Johnson will receive
the advertising and will be a
formidable candidate four years
hence. Mr.. Johnson is a conner"
He has not arrived but will
not be long in doing so. He has
adopted the wisest policy in de-
clining to stand for a third term.
Four years more will do much
for him. He is likely to sit in
the White House yet.
