sympathy more than state wide
goes out today to the small group in
this little Minnesota town which
mourns for Governor John A. John
son, who died this morning at st.
Mary's hospital After battling
against death almost week the gov
ernor's life had a peaceful ending
Grouped at the bedside when the end
came were Mrs. Johnson, Miss Sulli-
van, her personal friend, attending
physicians ana two nurses. The last
thing the governor did before laps
ing into unconsciousness, one and
one-half hours before death came,
was to take his wife's hand weakly
and whisper, "Well, Nora, I made a
good fight but guess I've got to go"
| Then, as the last gleam of intelli-
gence began to flicker he pressed her
! hand gently with his cheek as part
/ ing caress.

LOSE BY SHIPPING
FRUIT EAST.
WENATCHEE GROWERS TURN
DOWN SPOKANE DEALERS
SEND APPLES TO CHICAGO AT
SMALLER PROFITS.

Shipping fruit to Chicago instead
of allowing the local commission men
to handle it has proved a losing
game to party of Wenatchee fruit
growers" said J. J. Ellinger. local
commission man, to a Spokesman
Review reporter.
Many fruit growers have the idea
that they can always do better by
marketing in the east themselves
than by placing 1t in the hands of
local commission men. In the case
of the Wenatchee growers they sent
two carloads of Bellfiower apples to
Chicago which sold at $3.50 a box.
The shipment reached Chicago about
September 5, when the same grade
of apples was selling in Spokane at
from $50 to 50 box. or an aver
age of $1.75.
From the Chicago sale the grower
was compelled to pay the freight, so
cents a box; 10 cents a box for icing
charges, and 10 cents a box for COM
mission, or total of 70 cents box,
leaving balance of 60 cents to the
grower. Had these growers shipped
to Spokane they would have received
$1.41 net. The charges they would
have paid are 16 cents freight and Is
cents commission, total of "a cents.
"At the time Of year when the ap-
pies were sent to Chicago the mar
ket there was poor. while apples were
bringing good price in Spokane and
this territory. The Wenatchee' ship
ment was sold in Chicago at auction"

Sydney, Sept. 21. Commander
Peary, after successful quest for

board the Roosevelt. The explorers
wife was here to greet him, and as
the Roosevelt, after an absence of

welcome from the assembled ship
ping.
Mrs. Peary and a party of friends
met the Roosevelt ten miles north

WELL KNOWN RAILROAD ENGIN-
EER ASSERTS WENATCHEE
VALLEY NORTHERN LINE WAS
PLUCKED BY FOREST SERVICE

According to L. NJ. Rice, of Seat
tie, one of the best known railroad
and irrigation engineers in the north
west, there is apparently one law for
the forestry service of the United
States department of agriculture and
another and entirely different one
for private individuals and corpora
tions who seek to cross the forest
reserves with lines of railroad. Out
of this condition, he says, has grown
in one instance at least, a hardship
on a railroad company not justified
by the federal statutes.
ut has been scarcely a year since
Clifford Pinchot, the forester of the
department of agriculture, forced the
Wenatchee Valley Northern Railroad
company. then building a standard
gauge line north of Leavenworth, IN
Kittitas county, to pay wholly un-
lawful and unjustified price for tim
ber used in the construction of about
a mile of its road, which crossed the
Wenatchee forest reserve" Mr.. Rice
said.
II was the engineer In charge OF
construction on this road and I know
the facts. Mr.. Pinchot exercised the
authority usually found vested only
In tyrants, when he held up the con-
struction of that part Of the road
for year, made us put up certi-
hed check of $1,000 and then charg-

layed without any legal reason, but

of "The Use Book compilation OF

right to take, from the public lands
adjacent to the line of said road, ma

sary for the construction of said rail

Mr.. Rice said that private corpor,
ations were selling logs in the same
district at SIS a 1000 feet and tha.
counting the cost of logging, the
highest price within reason the gov.
eminent should have asked would
have been about 81 a 1000 feet. The
greater part of the timber taken, he
said, was pine trees, the tops OF
which had died and which were
worth little or nothing for logging
purposes.

A LONELY THANKSGIVING

Some years ago a sailing ship bound
from New York to Singapore with oil,
took FIRE in the middle Of the Indian
ocean the day before Thanksgiving.
Realizing that It was impossible to eX
:inguish the burning oil, the captain or.
dcTcd the men 10 the boats, with such
provisions AZ they could carry at short
notice. The long boat, containing the
captain, second mate, and ten men,
got away all right, but was never heard
Of again. The cutter, with the first
mate and the rest of the crew, after
drifting about In the darkness several
hours, went broadside against a coral
reeI and vas smashed like an eggshell.
The mate alone succeeding in reach
ing land, all the others being dashed
to death OF the jagged reef points or
drowned in the boiling surf.
Daylight showed the survivor that
be was marooned on n little island that
vas not much more than a cluster Of
rocks rising above the waves. IL was
a half mile wide at tho largest part
and about a mile in circumference, aud
was surrounded by a bristling cheyauN
lie friso Of reefs, over which the pillows
spouted in foam and thunder. Beyond
the glittotiug walls Of spray was the
desolate eApanse Of the Indian ocean,
with not a sail or a smudge cf smoke
anywhere In sight. The shipwrocked
man remembered IL was Than ksgiy.
ing day and the thought OF ali the
good things the folks at home were en-
Joying increased the pangs Of hunger
and thirst. In the forlorn hope Of
finding water in some rocky crevice
be started to explore the island, aud,
much TO his delight, found q pool Of
sweet, II tcpid, water collected in 4
hollow on the top Of a rock which he
mounted in the hope Of deserving .
ship. Further on, hidden In the coarse
grass which the sea wind eombed over
II, he stumbled on a sea fowls nest
full Of eggs, and was also by good luck
able TO kill one Of the birds with q
well aimed stone. Being a bit Of q
dandy, he carried 4 silver match boz,
which had kept the matches dry, so be
was able to light a FIRE Of dry grass and
little sticks, over which he cooked the
sea fowl. lie roasted the eggs in the
hot embers, and though Of m oily fla
vor, they were very ~palAtable to a hun.
cry man. Salt and pepper would have
been a great improvement TO this
Thanksgiving dinner alone on n rocky
islet In the lonely indian ocean, but the
sauce Of a healthy appetite made up fol
their absence. The next day, as the
shipwreeked sailor was finishing the
last Of the roast eggs, a p. q o. steamer
sighted his signal Of distress and sent
n boat to his rescue.

But 80 years nave changed all that.
al that has been changed because

hi, children have worked with him.
Men have been working each for all,
aud all for each. When a botsnist in
Java made gutta pcrcha flow from u

the rest compelled the Lake Superior
mines to deliver their copper, some
hundreds Of thousands Of God 3 chill
dred between them drew the copper
into wire and sheRthed II with gutta
percha and laid their cable beneath

their Father, and the Father worked
with his children. 1t is not one man
who has done this. 1t is not n hundred
men. II is the union Of the world. II
