The romance is going out Of everything Even

In short the number of models far exceeds the
demand for them that the union is likely to have
hard struggle in its fight for living wages
Being a model isn't what il was once On the
other hand. models aren't what they were once:
the standard has declined. To this. no doubt, is
due the almost total disappearance OF the oldtlme
comradeship between the artist and his model

ton, will be made by the democratic
members of that committee.
The democrats believe that Mr..
Gates can reveal one of the most gil
gantic plots ever conceived in finance,
involving the inception of the panic
of 1907, which, according to their al
legations, cost Mr.. Gates and his as
sociates millions of dollars.
According to the story told today,
J. Pierpont Morgan. in the purchase
of the Tennessee company, wreaked
summary vengeance ON Mr.. Gates for
the Louisville and Nashville coup OF
1902, which, it is said, cost the Nor
gan interests SIS 100000.
Mr.. Gates accomplished this coup
while Mr. Morgan was perfecting con-
troll of the Atlantic Coast, the Sea-
board and Southern railroads, with
view to controlling the railroad stu
alton in the South, The net result
was that Mr.. Morgan was compelled
to buy out Mr.. Gates at his own fig
ures. This stock, when bought, was
turned over 90 the Atlantic Coast
Line company of Connecticut. hold
/ ing company of the Atlantic Coast
Line railroad.
1t is alleged that this deal ranked
in the breast of Mr.. Morgan until
1907. When it was found that Gates
and a syndicate associated with him
controlled the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company and had hypothecated
their holdings with interests in New
! York, it is intimated by the demo-
Gratis that certain financial conditions
were brought about which resulted in
/ Mr.. Gates and his friends being
squeezed out of the concern.
The retaliation of Mr.. Morgan and
his friends is likened by the demo-
Gratis to the Gould corner in gold in
1873 which resulted in BLACK Fri
day and the Hill-Harriman fight
over the Northern Pacific road in
1901, which brought on BLUE Thurs
day"

YAKIMA DOES NOT PAY.
Wenatchee Commercial Club Unable
to Collect Amount of Prizes
Won Last Fall.

Many of the members of the We
natchee Commercial Club were sur
prisei to learn from the report of
Secretary Gellatly that Yakima does
not settle her debts.
At the, state fair held at Yakima
last year Wenatchee took the Mer-
chants prize of $500 for the best
general exhibit. The fund for this
prize was to have been donated by
the business men of Yakima and as
far as can be learned the money has
not been collected. Additional pri-
yes were won at Yakima to the am
cunt of $3.50 to 5000. The reason
given that these have not been paid
is that the legislative appropriation
is insufficient to take care of the
prize list. Inasmuch as there seems
likelihood of the legislature making
an appropriation sufficient to care
for the deficit it would seem as If
Yakima would soon be in a position
to care for her fair debts, but there
does not seem to be any prospects
of the legislature making an appro-
priation to assist the merchants OF
North Yakima in caring for their
debts and it seems doubtful as tt
when Wenatchee will be in shape tc
collect in full.

WILL WATER 10000 ACRES
Eastern Capital to Boom Columbia
River Land.
(By Associated Press.)

PASCO, Feb. 9.-An option has
been secured on a tract of 10000
acres on the north bank of the Col
umbia, near Coyote rapids, around
the bend from White Bluffs, which
will be put under water this summer
if the deal is successfully completed.
This will be one of the largest irri-
CATION projects on the Columbia, and
the land will be devoted to fruit rails
ing.
The option has been secured by l..
F. Jones, Puget Sound passenger
agent for the New York Central
lines, for eastern capitalists whose
names are not announced. The men
interested have a colonization scheme
in mind and intend to bring out fam
lilies from the east and settle the
entire tract.
The land will be watered by pumps
from the Columbia river and a small
tract assigned to each family. The
land fronts on the river opposite the
northern extremity of the Hanford
lands, and once under water would
combine with the Hanford and White
Bluffs projects to form a large tract
of irrigated land in the Columbia
valley.
