PRESIDENT IN FAVOR
OF A MINING BUREAU
Recommendation for Such Incorpo-
rated in the Message to
Congress.

Washington. Dec. 2.-Having completed
work upon his message last night. Pres
ident Taft began receiving congressional
and other visitors today. The message is
now in the hands of the public printer.
Several visitors during the day talked
to the President about portions of his
message. Among these were Representa-
tives Douglas of Ohio and Austin of Ten
nessee. Both men are deeply interestd
in the establishment of a bureau of mines
and mining, Mr.. Douglas telling the Pres
ident that if there had been such a
bureau, with up-to-date methods, the hor-
rible disaster at Cherry, ILL.,, probably
would have been averted
The President has made a recommends
ton for such a bureau.
Representative Austin stated that the
United States was far behind all other
countries in measures to prevent mine
disasters. He not only thinks that there
should be a bureau, as urged by Rep
resentative Douglas, but he wants the
President to do all he can to secure a
large appropriation for the continuance
of an experimental work provided for by
the last congress, which appropriated
$4,000.
Foreign countries have reduced the
death rate from accidents in mines from
four and five per 1000 TO less than one
in each 1000 miners" said Mr.. Austin,
and it is the duty of the United States
to do something for its miners"

ENORMOUS LOSSES
BY MEANS OF FLOOD
Railroads in Northwest Wash
ington Out of Commission
for Several Days.

Bellingham, Wash, Dec. 2.-For three
days northwest Washington has been
cut from quick communication with the
outside world, boat service alone fur
nishing a connecting link.
No trains are moving except between
this city and Burlington, twenty miles
south, and service cannot be rendered
inside of week. Telegraph wires were
restored today.
Twenty miles of railway track in Ska
git and Whatcom counties have been
destroyed. The loss to railways will
exceed S1.O0O,OOO. Whatcom county lost
$100,0 in bridges alone. Ferndale's
losses aggregate $4,000. There two
mills, a school house and eleven resi-
dences were destroyed.
Five miles of Northern Pacific track
in this county has disappeared, even the
grade being obliterated. The steel
drawbridge on the Great Northern at
Ferndale must be replaced. South of
Mount Vernon twenty miles of track is
still under water.
The Anacortes branch of the Great
Northern has lost half mile of grade
at Avon, while mile of track has been
washed away at Whitney. About forty
miles of the Rockport branch of the
Great Northern must be reconstructed.
The right of way between Lyman and
Hamilton must be relocated for dis
lance of five miles.
Laconner is under seven feet of water
The towns loss is placed at $15O,O00 in
stocks of goods destroyed and two ware
houses filled with grain and hay which
collapsed and slipped into the food.
In the country north of Laconner !, 900
head of cattle were drowned, while
900 sacks of oats and 5000 tons of
baled hay are total loss Sloughs and
bays for miles from Laconner are COW
cred with drifting hay and sacks of oats
A barn filled with hay was found float
ing in Puget sound by a northbound
steamer yesterday. The loss to the
farmers is estimated at $4,000 in live
stock, hay and grain.

WANTS UNCLE SAM
TO GIVE FIGURES
Federal and State Corpora
ton in Gathering Facts Is
Advocated.

Cooperation between several of the
federal departments and tho state are
suggested by H. T. Haines, state statis-
tician, in letters to Senators Reed
Smoot and George Sutherland and Con-
gresham Joseph Howell yesterday. 1t
is believed this is the cheapest and
most effective method of obtaining in
formation regarding the business &C
tivity in Utah.
In most instances where the request
has been made by Mr.. HaInes to the
local representatives of the govern
ment, the reply has been that the To-
cal federal officials cannot give out
the information until the publication of
the annual reports ar Washington.
These reports are a year late in many
instances, and Utah would have to wait
that long for the information. 1t is
believed by Mr.. Haines that by the aid
of the Utah delegation in congress this
information can be furnished before
the federal reports are out. That
would aid the state materially in the
work.
Owing to the small amount of money
spent by the state for the gathering of
statistics, some method like this must
be adopted, according to Mr.. Haines, to
get information At the present time,
nothing other than sending out letters
can be done. There is not enough
money at the disposal of the statistical
bureau to send out any agents TO
gather the information. Thus. if the
reports to the state bureau without
waiting until the annual reports are
published. many complete reports could
be obtained by the cooperation

tanning seven rooms and an acre of

Thought Him IIIiterate.

In the course of his long and active
public career Speaker Cannon has
often been violently attacked by his
noIitical enemies and has occasionally
been made the object of personal abuse.
IT remained, however, for wafer in a
Kansas City hotel to charge him with
iIliteracy. The story runs thus:
BEING in no mood to select his din
ner he had tossed aside, after glance,
the menu presented to him by his
waiter, saying:
Bring me a good dinner"
Incidentally Uncle Joe" slipped the
man a big tip in advance.
This repast proving satisfactory, !:he
speaker pursued the same plan during
the remainder of his stay in Kansas
civ AS he was leaving the servitor
remarked earnestly, as he helped him
on with his overcoat:
Il beg your pardon, sir, but when
YOU or any of your friends tina can't
read come to Kansas City just ask for

Salt Lake Route Officials and News
paper Men Enjoy Rides to
Tintic and Return.

The two new trains of the Salt Route
for Salt Lake from Los Angeles, and
the other bound for Los Angeles from
Salt Lake. The train from Los An
geles brought T. C. Peck and other Off
Gals, number of newspaper men and
prominent citizens. The Salt Lake train,
in addition to the regular passengers,
carried P. H. Lannan, Joseph Mander-
son, assistant general freight and pas
senger agent; H. S. Twining, superin-
tendent of the Pullman service, and a
number of Salt Lake newspaper men.
The Oregon Short Line train which
hauled the Butte sleeper to Salt Lake
was late, consequently the Salt Lake
Routes westbound train was delayed
little in leaving Salt Lake, but the
train arrived at Tintic at 1890. its
scedule time. 1t consisted of one of the
new locomotives, baggage car, day
coach, diner and two Pullmans, with an
observation room. The trainmen taking
out the Salt Lake train were: F. B. Nc
Carly, conductor; ]. H. Brown, en-
gineer; James McCartell, fireman; w.
E. Stark, brakeman; W. H. Adams,
fagman, and E. Mcdonald, baggage
man. The Salt Lakers boarded the east
bound train at Tintic and returned
home
Everything was done to make the trip
pleasant for the visitors, and they all
said they enjoyed it hugely. The two
new trains will run daily hereafter.

I must own that Baganda generally
are very good to their sick. The chill
dren of our school make little of a
walk of twelve or fifteen miles. if it re-

people are too fond of playing truant

Notwithstanding all these difficulties
and drawbacks and other African tritles,
we have no reason to complain, since
about 200 children come to school every
morning. In general they do their best

understand their lessons easily; others
