Kalama Bulletin: Paradoxical
as it may seem, there is one hill
that is not a detriment to good
roads, viz: Sam Hill. The Hon.
Samuel Hill, president of the
good roads association of Wash
ington, and secretary of the Ma
tlonal Good Roads Association, is
a booster for good roads always
and everywhere. Wish all our
hills" were like him.
Port Orchard Independent:
The attorney general has advis-
ed the State Board of Control
that widows of old soldiers can
not be admitted to the Port Or
chard Veterans Home. This
may be the law, but in our opin-
ion it is rank injustice to the
noble women whose sacrifices
and heroic work at home during
the war equaled that of their
husbands who went to the front.
No doubt the next legislature
will change this and give the
women their just rights.
Everett Herald: All this talk
of Pinchot's letter and resulting
dismissal being part of con-
spiracy for the benefit of Roose-
welt is nonsense. The whole
thing has been the logical out
come of the row that has been
brewing these many days. There
is many a good citizen in this
land who can't sleep we'll nights
because of fear of the Roosevelt
DOGGY, and who is haunted by
big stick visions and all of them
are always ready to express their
fears. There is as much reason
for this talk of a Roosevelt con-
spiracy" as there was to the
conspiracy" Cook discovered
had been concected to steal his
papers while they were en- route
to Europe.
Walla Walla Bulletin: One of
the most important factors of
the apple industry, if not the
most important. is the pack.
The apple-buyer and the con-
sumner of today demand that
fruit be grade1 and packed so
that they may get what they
pay for. The pack is of prime
Importance, also, for the reason
that, no matter how high grade
an apple is produced, rough
handling and long distance hauls
will bruise it so that it will not
be in first class shape when it
reaches it's destination, unless
the pack is what it should be.
Big Bend Empire: Recent in
formation from the state capital
indicates that the new state
highway commissioner, L. H.
Bowlby, has become involved in
disagreement with other off
Gals over the affairs of his office
and is accused Of misappropria-
ton of the road funds. One
specific charge is that Mr.. Bowl
by, has expended thousands of
dollars for "office expenses" and
surveys, and has not yet i'm.
proved a single foot of some OF
the important roads.

JOHN A. PATTEN SPEAKS
AT WATERWAYS. MEETING
President of tennessee River
Association on National
Program.
HIS INTEREST IN
RIVER IMPROVEMENT.
One Of Few Men in Country Who
Has Thoroughly Mastered
the Subject.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-In addi-
tioa to the addresses of President Will
liam H. Taft and Gov. Judson Har-
mon, of Ohio, at the coming conven-
ton of the National Rivers and Har-
bors Congress, which will be held in
this city early in December, the utter
ances of Frederick Adrian DelanO,
president of the Wabash Railroad Co.,
and John A. Patten, of Chattanooga,
president of the Tennessee River I'm
provement Association, will be follow
ed with much interest by the friends
of improved waterways throughout the
country.
1t has been several years since a
president of great railroad system
like the Wabash appeared before this
congress of waterways enthusiasts,
James J. Hill, of the Great Northern,
having given his Endorsement to the
movement for a comprehensive policy
of waterway development, on the part
of the federal government, years ago.
Later, Mr.. Hill was followed by Pres
ident Brown of the New York Central,
who took an advanced position on this
great question which is uppermost in
the minds of the American people.
Mr.. Delano is looked upon as one of
the great engineers of the country,
and a railroad man whose diversified
training peculiarly fits him for his
present position.
John A, Patten is as we'll known to
the south as Mr.. Delano is to the
west. Mr.. Patten has been one of
the leading spirits of Dixie" having
by sbrewd intelligence comprehended
the advantages of the section in which
he lives
Mr.. Patterns name has been synony-
nous with every public enterprise, not
only in Chattanooga, but in the south
ern states. He has been one of the
pioneers in the grand movement for a
national progressive sentiment in wa
terway improvement. He not only
knows the wonderful Tennessee river
and appreciates it's immense possibili
ties as an auxiliary to commerce, but
he has correlative grasp of the i'm
portance of the subject to the whole
country not excelled by any man in
public or private life. What he will
have to say about the Tennessee
river will not only be noted with deep
interest by all concerned in that great
waterway, but will prove instructive
and inspiring to all who believe that
one of the most vital contingents of
assured prosperity in this country lies
through cheaper transportation over
it's vast area wrought by the improve
of its waterways.

MRS. CLARK DIES WHILE
VISITING SICK FRIEND.

SPENCER. Tenn, November 25.-
Mrs. G. Fl. Clark, wife of Col. A. II.
Clark, a merchant and one Of the most
prominent citizens of Van Buren,
County, died very sudden Wednesday
afternoon at the residence Of J. l..
Molloy, where she was visiting Mrs.
Molloy's sick sister. Mrs. Clark SEEM
ed to be enjoying her usual good
health and walked to Mr.. Molloy's, q
distance of one mile, only a short time
before she died. The cause of her
death was heart failure. She was a
sister of Rev. w. 81. Sutton, distin-
guished preacher of this section, who
died in like manner a few years ago.
Mrs. Clark was a member of the
Christian Church. She lived devot-
ed, consecrated Christian life, her dali
ly walk rejecting the beauty and pur-
ity of noble character.
Her untimely death has occasioned
sincere sorrow among her friends.
