The comb of tortoise shell was a

killed to get its shell casing. That is

say a sheep was killed to get it's wool.
what is done is this. The fisher
men. having caught a tortoise, tie him
and then cover his back with dry grass
and leaves. They set fire to this stuff,
it burns slowly, and the heat causes
the thirteen plates of the shell to
loosen at the joints. With a knife the
plates are pried off, and afterwards
the tortoise is set free. The base or
root of his shell is intact and will grow
again. If tortoises were killed to get
their shell, they would long since have
become extinct

Pendinu Bills Attacked.

4
While we believe the basic objections
we have urged against postal savings
system are unanswerable, we further
submit that the bills now pending in
congress for the creation of that sys-
tenn should not be enacted into law,
because specifically wrong in the fol-
lowing particulars, to which many 9TH
ers could be added:
First-,rhe exemption OF deposits
from legal process is vicious, as it
would provide a depository for funds
of the dishonest and the fraudulent
where, they could place their money,
draw interest on it, and be free from
attachment, which would prove a SER
ious menace to the business interests
of the country.
Second I'm the use made by the gov
ernment Of the funds coming into its
possession thru the postal savings de-
positories, the provisions of the bills
do not assure wide and equitable dis
tribution of the funds deposited nor
prevent the eeentralizaeioa of the peo-
piles money which belongs to and
should be retained in their respective
communities.
Thtrd--No provision being made for
a time notice for Withdrawals, the
government might at times be serious
w embarrassed, to the great detrim ent
Of the general business interests OF the
people.

ATTACK POSTAL BANKS
National Association OF Bank
ers at Denver Hear Report
Of Investigators
EXPERIENCE AS AN ARGUMENT
Bankers Declare Proposed Plan is
FraushA With Danger = Poor Re-
suits Secured in the Past - Bills
Pending in Congress Attacked-No
Great Detriment if Established.

Denver, Col, Sept 29-Postal saw
ings banks are opposed in the report
of the postal savings bank committee
of the American Bankers association
read before the convention of the ASSOC
citation here yesterday. The committee
which investigated the postal bank
proposition, consists of P. De Roy
Howard, Myron T. Herrick, c. LaRue
Munson, Francis r. Morrison, Charles
E. Sprague and Luci1ls letter.
The report IS as follows:
It is our opinion that, unless inn
peratively demanded by public needs,
the functions Of the United States gov
eminent should not be extended to the
spheres more properly occupied by
state governm or by corporate or
individual effort
The savings system of the majority
of the states, with the modern facil-
tides for transacting business by mail,
are adequate to the needs of the peo-
pie and the safeguarding of their de-
posts. 1t is the constant endeavor of
the banking fraternity to improve these
conditions in the remaining states.
Poor Results in Past.
Altho, in our opinion, no great det-
riment will result ito the existing saw
ings bank system from the. establish
ment Of postal savings repositories, in
asmuch as the present facilities are
c11ra IA f1,n@ hc % 1eaf3
by the government yet. the previous
experiences OF the United States gov
eminent in conducting banking insti-
tutions and notably in connection with
the Freedmens Savings & Trust COM
,pany, do not encourage us ITO believe
that the proposed postal savings sys-
tenn would be managed more wisely or
with better success than the existing
savings institutions
We think it preferable to educate
the newly arrived foreigner to Amer
Joan methods rather than ito accom-
MEDIATE our methods to his ineNperi-
ence.
We point with pride to THE record of
the savings institutions of the United
States. While the figures for 1907 are

aggregate net loss to depositors was
the trivial sum OF $4,000, being three
ten -thousamdths Of per cent on a
total Of three billion five hundred mill
ION dollars in savings deposits, where
as the proposed government rate OF
2 per cent would have deprived the
depositors of at least fifty million dol
lars In interest in the same year.
We submit that our savings institu-
tdons have performed a great service
thruout the United States In developing
the country.
We hold that the history of the fin-
ancial institutions Of the United States
demonstrates that in safety and in
adaptability these institutions are de-
veloping as the country develops, thru
d process of evolution, and that the
record Of the past lis a sufficient guar
antee for the future that our present
banking facilities will steadily grow to
meet all the requirements OF the coun-

RAID BLIND PIG"
At PRIEST RAPIDS
YAKIMA OFFICIALS DISCOVER
ILLICIT BOOZE JOINT" AND
ARREST PRoPRIEToRs.

YAKIMA, Feb. 25.-An unexpected
raid was made upon a "blind pig"
past at Priest Rapids, on Saturday
afternoon by Sheriff Edwards and De-
putty Sheriff Joe Metzger. The officers
drove them over from this city and
were met at the rapids by Sheriff Alex.
McNeiPs deputies, who were there at
the request of Sheriff Edwards, who
was not quite certain whether the
blind pig was situated in Yakima
.or Benton county, and wished to be
prepared in either event.
Sheriff Edwards was armed with
warrants for the arrest of Ernest
Schneider, proprietor of the liquor
dispensary, and for John Bolton, mis-
bartender. Both men were arrested.
Schneider being brought back here
yesterday by Cheriff Edwards and Boil
ton, together with big slot machine,
found i'm the saloon, was brought here
via Kennewick by Joe Metzger.
Never Paid for License.
The case of Schneider is of an unus-
ual character. Last summer, with the
approval of the contractors for the
Hanford Irrigation & Power company,
Schneider was granted a license for a
saloon at Priest Rapids by the county
commissioners. The license was
made out and signed, but it still lies
i'm a pigeon hole in the county audi
tors office for Schneider never ap-
plied for it and never paid the $1,000
license fee. But he ran his saloon just
the same.

ruled off the staff. The posters de-
clare that this new edict is specifi-
cally aimed at only one man, Abe
Hurvitz, who was on The Wave staff
as an associate editor until Rudio's
election, but who worked against the
latter in the recent contest for the
editorship.
''Rudio's declaration am the State
is taken exception to by many students
as being an 'autocratc and arbitrary
dictum,' and they demand the REIN
statement of the deposed associate
editor. The college publication is
owned by the entire student body. I

emphasize in big, bold, black letters,
Students, how about it? Is Rudio the

cal strife among students. During that

BRYAN'S DAUGHTER
MAY NOMINATE HIM
MRS. HOLMES tEAvlTT TO At.
TEND DEMOCRATIC CON-
vENTloN As DELEGATE.

DENVER, Colo, Feb. 25.-Colorado
is state where women vote. 1t is
practically certain that the Democra-
tic party of the state will send Mrs.
Homer ]. Leavitt, daughter Of William
Jennings Bryan, to the national Demo-
cratic convention, which meets here
July 7th, either, as a delegate or an
alternate. It seems as certain as can
be that Mrs. Leavitt will either make
a seconding speech for her fathers
nomination for president or make the
principal speech placing him before the
convention. Mrs. Leavitts husband is
a portrait artist and has resided in
Denver since his marriage to Mr.. Bry-
ans daughter, four years ago, so she is
eligible to sit as a representative of
Colorados Democratic women in the
national convention.
The hall in which Mrs. Leavitt will
speak, if she places her father in NOM
ination, is larger than Madison Square
Garden in New York and has a seat
ing capacity of 1850. Several thous-
ands more can be crowded into the
open spaces in which there are no
seats. The acoustic properties of the
building are excellent, and in all pro-
liability Mrs. Leavitt will be heard by
the largest number Of people that ever
listened to woman orator. Mrs.
Leavitt is president of the Colorado
Jane Jefferson club, and takes pro-
minent part in politics.
Preparations are being made to en-
terrain the largest crowd that has ever
assembled in Denver when the Demo-
cratic convention meets in July. This
city has had as many as 100000 visi-
tors at one time during the former
gatherings and these were easily taken
care Of in the hundreds of large hotels
that the city contains. Special fea-
lures of the entertainment will be ar
ranged for those who come to the con
vention and an immense sum Of money
will be spent by the citizens of Denver
to insure the comfort of all those who
attend the gathering.

RUD|O ST|RS UP

WALLA WALLA BOY GAINS Elk
PERIENcE AS EDITOR OF U.
OF w. WAVE.

Roy Rudio, the Walla Walla boy, ell
ected editor of the Wave, the official
paper of the University of Washing
ton is getting a realistic touch of the
stony path that usually besets journal
istc efforts. since he took charge of the
Wave according to reports coming
from Seattle.
Young Rudio in his first editorial
issued an edict that all student cor
respondents of outside papers should
be barred from the staff of the Wave.
This has aroused a 4yeritablee storm of
Indignation and as result the young
editor was numerically cartooned
yesterday. The Seattle Times gives
the following account Of the episode:

OUTLOOK DARK
FOR LEAGUE BALL
WAllA WAllA FANS TAKE NC
STEPS TO JOIN o'eRlENs
AGGREGATION.

Interest in a four cornered league,
with Walla Walla, Pendleton. Baker
City and La Grande, which was at
fever heat a week ago is on the wane
and from the present outlook Walla
Walla will not be counted in the league
which is in progress of formation at
Baker City, according to Jack O'Brien
who was here last week trying to
work up enthusiasm among Walla
Walla fans for league baseball.
The Statesman today received the
following telegram from Mr.. O'Brien.
Baseball meeting to be held at PEN
dleton has been postponed until Fri
day night on account of Baker City
electing new officers"
Walla Walla fans supposed to be in
favor of Walla Walla joining a league,
proposed by Mr. O'Brien, said today
that so far nothing had been done to
incorporate a club and that in all
likelihood Walla Walla would have to
depend on independent baseball again
this summer.
''At a meeting held in the CONNER
cial club rooms last week for the pur-
pose of talking over the matter, a COM
mittee was appointed to meet Mr..
O'Brien the next day but for some
reason or other he failed to keep the
appointment and we have seen moth
ing Of him SINCE" said w. L. Van De
Water today.
1.-THE present outlook is that Walla
Walla will have Independent baseball
again this year. We will put an anna
teur team in the field as contemplat-
ed earlier in the season and we have
assurances that Pendleton will have
an independent team. We can get
plenty of games with outside teams
SO there will be plenty of baseball
even if the league proposition falls
through"
In event Walla Walla declines to
enter the league Boise City will prob
ably become the other member Of the
association.
