ORGANIZATION IS THE NEEC
o'v.!'zat'on Has Reached That STAGE
"nere Capitalization Is Necessary
for Preservation.

we may decry the trusts and the
combines as we please, may pass in
effectual laws against them till dooms
day, but the fact remains that we
nave reached that stage in our civ.
lllzatlon that Capitalization is an alb
solute necessity for our preservation
says Orchard and Farm. A member
OF an organization, with the com.
oined power of all the separate units
at his back, will succeed, while he
VINO is determined to "go it alone"
without the power which numbers
give, will be crushed beneath the on.
coming organizations. This Is true
OF the fruit business in California, as
OF all other forms of business else.
"nere. 1t has largely been in those
classes which are organized that
there has been success, or which have
yielded their individuals profit for
their labors; or even, we might say
nave saved them from loss. The or.
ange men of the south have their
splendid organization. They don't
call it trust, because trusts are IL.
legal. but it works exactly on the same
lines, and they receive a fair remu.
neration for their labor and a fair in,
terest in their investment. The fruit
distributors in the north handle the
fresh fruit Shipments and to a great
extent have control of the markets.
and the members of this organization
nave dividends. And so, all along
the line. Just so far as the producers
are combined, and just in proportion
as they can control the markets for
their products, just so far are they
prosperous, and, by the reverse just
to the extent that they endeavor to
work along individual lines just so far
they fail.
The raisin and the prune growers
representing as they do two of the
most important fruit industries of
the state, have endeavored for years
to form some kind of a working or.
ganization, but too often have been
swayed by outside influences to their
detriment, and have not been sue
cessful, and, as a result, raisins
and prunes go begging, and there is
no money in them" The wine-grape
growers have no organization, and
some of them are selling their grapes
at five dollars a ton. The winemakers
have strong organization and are
buying these grapes at a low price.
The raisin growers are learning by
hard experience and are now endeav.
oring to organize corporation to
handle the bulk, if not all of the crop.
1t will not be trust, but 1t will en-.
deavor to control the raisin market,
and get fair prices. 1t is proposed
to organize with capital enough to
handle the whole raisin crop, and then
pack and market it from one central
point. If this is done the markets
can be exploited, new markets opened
and there will be no overproduction
of raisins and no surplus to feed to
the hogs. Let one body, and that
body composed of the growers them.
selves, have control of the crop, let 1t
be handled from one central Office
and prices fixed to meet the demand.
Then let the demand be increased
by proper exploitation, which can be
done, and we shall hear no more about
destroying the raisin vineyards and
growing alfalfa.

Stamps of German pomestics,

Each week there is pasted in the
little blank book that every servant
girl in Germany must possess a post

cents.
This stamp is a donation, compul-

mistress must afford the servant
Should the girl fall i'll, the stamps are
redeemed by the government, or the
servant may retain the stamps indefi-

ripe old age, the government pays her
a premium for them.-The Sunday

pressure over this same line was the highest in the world.
 The wires for this high tension transmission are suspended from steel towers 53 feet high and 500 feet apart. They are insulated with five large porcelain disks ten inches in diameter which are tested to stand a pressure of half a million volts without arcing over.
 A .peculiarity of this enormous electrical pressure is to cause a static discharge from the transmits sion wires into the atmosphere. This discharge causes a cracking or his sing noise which can be distinctly heard for a distance of over a hun dred feet In the dark this static discharge can be seen; the wires being luminous with little streaks of light where there is a particle of dust or an irregularity in the copper. And yet the transmission wires are so thoroughly insulated and stretch for so many miles that the friction of the wind will charge them with stat ic electricity even when entirely dis connected from the power plant When a slight wind is blowing a spark over an inch long can be drawn from the wires.

WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC.
Conference of Prosecutors in Chicago First Step Toward Its Ex-
 termination.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-tSpecial corres- pondence of The Republican, Means to exterminate the white slave trade" throughout the United States will be the subject of a conference in Chicago soon of representatives of the United States district attorneys and states attorneys offices, Judge Julian Mack and other jurists and representatives of rescue organizations. One of the results of the conference will be a bill, considered a model of its kind, to be submitted to the Illinois legislature soon and to the legislatures of other states later. to provide adequate pro- tection of law for girlhood, which. on an appalling scale. has been ruthlessly preyed upon by the white slave deal ers-procurers for evil resorts.
 This conference has been arranged by the editors of Woman's World in its crusade, begun with an article by. United States District Attorney Sims, against the white slave trade. As a preliminary letters were sent to city officials throughout the United States asking for counsel and facts upon the situation and the replies will be con sidered at the conference. The letters asked for counsel as to the most eff fective plan to be adopted by a na- tiOnal organization designed to stamp out this atrocious traffic" They add ed: Facts discovered by the federal authorities in Chicago warranted MT. Sims in saying that these traffickers had reduced the art of running young girls to a national and international system Will you kindly write us What your experience points to be the proper course to take, also how much you believe can be accomplished by organizing for this purpose?"
 Mayor H. A. Shunk of Dubuque, Ia, advocated capital punishment for the procurers, his letter being as follows: Your letter asking for counsel as to- the most effective plan to stamp out the atrocious traffic, is received. In reply I will say that I have but one suggestion to make in ridding the country of this terrible menace to young womanhoOd, and that IS make the crime a capital offense, and the punishment for the same the infliction of the death penalty. Dastards who engage in this nefarious traffic are worse than murderers and should be dealt with as such. Make the punish ment fit the crime and you will have gone a long way toward stamping it out"
 Another Iowa mayor, R. A. Doty of Waterloo, wrote: 'I believe the pub lie should be fully advised of the act ual conditions through the press, and then a national organization be per fected, with auxiliary societies In each county in the United States to apply it's knowledge as a preventative rather than a, cure. I wish the Woman's World great success in its effort to rid society of this. great evil"

The house of representatives without dissenting voice voted me an ap- propriation for services rendered and for expenses incurred but l have never received a dollar.
 Seeing a notice in the papers of the ruin of ancient cities in Arizona which were described in my report, I have concluded to write for the press and describe what was dis covered in my four years of ex- ploration. At the Green river on my way to the head waters of the Colorado, I met Major Powell and party preparing to go down the Green. I offered to give him command of my party if he would go with me to the Grand. I explained to him that little could be accomplished in descending the Green. I showed him the altitude and the approximate distance to the gulf. l had brought the steamer and a barge 160 feet long up the river as far as Colville where we had erected a conspicuous monument attesting that fact and also that a boat had been cut adrift on the Green, this passing down to the Colorado river without being broken to pieces. That was evidence that the great fall of water was not in the Green"

The federal laws cover cases in which alien women only are victims. but pitiful letters from mothers of young girls of American birth who have come to the city and have fallen victims of the white slave" trade have so appealed to the district attorney and his aids that they have gone beyond the federal power and twelve American girls and declar- ed to have been found in resorts, res cued by the authorities and turned over to the tender care of their grief stricken mothers. This fact brought into prominence the need that exists for state laws which will have such relation to federal statutes that the protection of girls and punishment of white slave" traders" will not be hampered by conflicting authority.
