JUVENILES WOULD WE'D.
BOY of 0 and Girl OF IL Decide to
Get Married.

st. Louis.-Soon after King Joe
Adams of the gypsy camp here re-
turned from Oklahoma, recently, he
! telegraphed his brother. King Alex
Of Chicago to intercept and separate
Spero Nicholas. nine years old, and
Mary Uboniwich, 12 years old before
they could be married. King Joe de-
clared that Spero, who came from
the Chicago camp recently, had be-
come acquainted with Mary and had
told his father, Nicholas George, that
he was in love with the girl and
wanted to become betrothed to her
Nicholas George sent for Ulanao
Ubaniwch, Mary's father, and handed
him $500. telling him it was to buy
Mary for his son. The petrothal was
announced yesterday and last night
Spero and Mary boarded a train for
Chicgo, where the boy. it was under
stood, intended showing his fiance to
his relatives in the camp there.
According to the law of the gypsies
bethrothal must last seven years,
but Kink Joe declares that Spero in
tends to marry Mary forthwith and
that she was weeping when he led
her from her fathers tent. The faith
er who has the $500 denies this. King
Joe insists he will rescue Mary from
her betrothed.

ESTABLISH NURSERIES, IN
CONNECTION WITH SCHOOLS

Chicago.-A movement for the es-
tablishment of an entirely new branch
Of educational work in the Chicago
public school system has been
launched by Mrs. Ella Flagg Young,
superintendent Of schools. who has
induced the school management com
mittee of the board Of education to
appoint a subcommittee to investi-
gate the possibilities of establishing
day nurseries for children under
school age, whose mothers work by
day
The argument which won was that
the lack of care for young children
in the poorer districts of the city
brought them to such condition
that when they came to school age the
schools could do nothing with them.

COLUMBIA TO BE RESTOCKED
WITH SOCKEYE SALMON


Portland.-The Columbia river will
be restocked with Sockeye salmon as
result of a visit during the past
week Of United States Fish Commits
sioner George H. Bowers of WASH
ington, D. C. He has ordered the
shipment OF 100000 Sockeye eggs
from the Yes Bay, Alaska, hatchery
to be delivered to the Bonneville
hatchery, and the young fry will be
turned into the Columbia. During
the past few years the Sockeye has
been growing scarce in the Columbia
but 1t is believed that this fine varie-
ty of commercial fish will be propa-
gated in sufficient quantities to meet
the ravage Of the fishermen by re-
stocking the river.

he found himself suddenly surround

The three bands were some dis

.P|NCHDT ON THE CONNECTION
BETWEEN FORESTS AND RIVERS

One Of the principal addresses be.
fore the Gulf-to- -the-Lakes Deep Wa.
terways convention just closed at New
Orleans was that Of clifford Plnchot
chief Of the United States forest SER
vice.
Mr.. Pinchot said in part:
"a comprehensive and progressive
plan Of the kind we need can be made
in one way only, and that is by a
commission Of the best men in the
United States, appointed directly by
the president Of the United States.
Such a plan must consider every
use to which our rivers can be put,
and every means available for their
control. 1t must deal with such great
questions as the relation of the state
and the nation in the construction
and control Of the work, and co-or-
dination Of rail and river transporta-
ton. The engineering difficulties
may be larger than we have yet
solved. The adjustment Of opposite
demands between conflicting inter-
ests and localities, and other ques-
tions of large reach, and often OF
great legal complexity, will tax the
powers Of the best men we have. No
part OF the work will require greater
temperance, wisdom and foresight
than certain questions Of policy and
law.
II have observed in the course of
some experience that difficulties or
iginating with the law are peculiarly
apt to foster misconceptions. It
happens that the service with which
l have the honor to be connected
supplies just now typical example.
indicates His Course.
Certain newspapers have said OF
late that the forest service has gone
far beyond the law in carrying out its
work. This assertion has been re-
peated so persistently that there is
danger that it may be believed. The
friends Of conservation must not be
led to think that before the forest
service can proceed legally with its
present work all the hazards and COM
promises Of the new legislation must
be faced
Fortunately, the charge Of ille-
gal action Is absolutely false. The
forest service has had ample legal
authority for everything It has done
Not once since It was created has any
charge Of illegality despite the most
searching investigation and bitterest
attack, ever led TO reversal by either
house or congress, or by any con-
gressional committee. Since the
creation Of the forest service the ex-
penditure Of more than $4,000, ,00C
has passed successfully the scrutiny

Most significant Of all, not once has
the forest service been defeated as
to any vital legal principal underly-
ing its work in any court or admin
istrative tribunal Of last resort. Thus
those who make the law and those
who interpret it seem to agree that
our work has been legal.
Works for Public Welfare.
But it is not enough to say that
the forest service has been kept
within the law. Other qualifications
go to make efficiency in a govern
ment bureau. A bureau may keep
within the law and yet fail to get re-
suits.
After the transfer of the national
forests from the interior department
to the forest service in 1905, some
things were done that had never been
done before, such as initiating gov
ernment control over water power
monopoly in the national forests CIV
ing preference to the public over COM
mercial corporations in the use Of the
forests, and trying to help the small
man make a living rather than the
big man to make profit (but always
with the effort to be just to both.)
Always and everywhere we have set
the public welfare above the advan-
tage of the special interests.
II believe in dividends for the peo-
pie as we'll as taxes. Fifty years is
long enough for the certainty Of prof
table investment in water power, and
to fix on the amount of return that
that will be fair to the public and the
corporation is not impossible. What
city does not regret some ill-consid-
cred franchise? And why should not
the nation profit by the experience Of
peoples property freely and forever
except that they would like to have
1t that way. I suspect that the mere
It's citizens?
There is no reason why the water
power interests should be given the
wishes Of the special interests, al
though they may have been the main
spring Of much public action for
many years, have begun to lose their
compelling power. A good way to
begin to regulate corporations would
be to stop them from regulating US.
"The sober fact is that here is the
imminent battle-ground in the endless
contest for the rights Of the people.
Nothing that can be said or done will
suffice to postpone longer the active
phases of this fight. That is why !
attach so much Importance to the at
titude Of the administrative officers in
protecting the public welfare in the
enforcement of the law"

When the announcement was made

carriages, during his term as Presi-
dent, much rivalry developed among
the leading manufacturers for the
honor of selling him a car. and the
public watched with interest 10 see
what Mr.. Taft's choice would be. The
knowing ones predicted that the White
Steamer would be selected, and they
pointed out that President Roosevelt
had used White Steamers for two
years al his summer home at oyster
Bay, and had recommended this make
10 Mr.. Taft as the most desirable.
