Alfred II. Henry have been selected as

the cannery here, the terms on which
the plant can be leased by the grow
ers of the Yakima valley. That means
that the growers are willing to talk
business on n business basis and un-
der conditions which will give them
the control of the plant for a term of
years. 1t is not believed that the
growers will deal with Mr.. Russell on
one year basis though that is a
matter to be determined when the
committee and Mr.. Russell get down
to terms.

was made at a meeting at the rooms
of the Comm ercial club Saturday af-
ternodn at which meeting Mr.. Russell
was represented by f. sheppard OF

port will b. made Mt future meeting
by the committee appointed to confer

GLAD HE LOST
Alice Longworth Not Particular About
Having Her Husband Governor.

WASHINGTON. July 30.-Alice
Roosevelt Longworth is today quite
happy, despite the defeat of her hus-
band, Congressman Nicholas Long
worth, for the republican guberna-
tor al nomination in Ohio. In fact
Mrs. Longworth admits she is a little
happier in view of the defeat than
she could have been had Longworth
been victorious.
MIS-, LongwyOrth likes society at
Newport, in Washington and on Long
Island. Had Longworth been nomin-
ated for governor and elected. it
would have been chiefly Ohio society

Increases Food Sources.
Economists have warned the peo-
pie repeatedly during the last quart
er of a century of the failure to make
the sources of food supplies keep pace
with the increases in population. They
have warned against the menace of
congestion in the larger cities, also,
however, expressing the belief that
the crisis toward which the worlds
food problem is leading may be
averted by increasing the productive
capacity of the land or by extending
the agricultural area. Advocates of
irrigation now come to the fore with
proof that modern tillage has greatly
increased the acre production as well
as the productive area, also showing
that beautiful orchards mark the sites
Of former barren deserts.

been turned from urban to rural life

DRAG CRIMINAL.
FROM REFUGE
Alleged Murderer of Little Louis
vile Girl, is Captured by San
Francisco Detectives.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 30
Dragged from beneath tho sink of a
Mushroom in a third street lodging
house in this city where he had been
crouching for twenty-four hours, Jo-
Seph A. Welding, accused OF the brutal
murder of little Alma Kellner of Louis
Vile, Ky, and whose meanderings
have baffled the police for four
months since the discovery of the re-
mains of the little girl in the cellar of
the st. Johns parochial school at
Louisville. was arrested today by De-
tectives Burke and Ryan of the local
police department. Vending ad-
mitted his identity and protested his
innocence of the crime.
To the detectives Vending made a
strenuous denial of any knowledge of
the murder OF Alma kellner and said
this his first information came from
the newspa perS containing the account
of the finding OF the body He de-
clared he was fleeing from his broth
in-law. Louis Arnold, who had pur-
sued him from France to make him
marry Madeline Arnold He declared
that the bitterness of Arnold grew so
after the marriage that he sought
safety in flight.
Captain Carney, who had tracked
Vending all over the south for four
months but who had gone to Sacra-
mento on another clue, returned this
afternoon and although Vending and
the detective had never met before the
former greeted Carney by name when
the Louisville chief Of police entered
the cell Vending said he would not
resist eXtradtion.
According to Carney the strongest
link of the testimony against the ac-
cuSed man was discovered when some
the girls bloody clothing was found
at the Vending home. Other circum-
stantal evidence is said by Carney to
be sufficient to send the accused to
the gallows.

NEW SURVEYING PLAN.

A departure in the survey of public
domain was inaugurated with the bel
ginning of the fiscal year. The work
will now be performed by surveyors
employed by the general land Office
instead of through the contract sys-
tenn. Land Commissioner bennett be-
lieves that the change will effect an
enormous saving of time.
For several years the land office has
been endeavoring to obtain authority
from congress to do it's own surveying;
Permission had been refused until the
session just closed. when 100000 was
appropriated for the work This was
an increase of $4,000 over last year.
Under the old system, after the con-
tractor had made his survey, it had to
be inspected by an examiner of the
land Office 1t was never less than two
years, and often three and four years.
before the work was accepted and the
land made available to entry.
Under the new plan of employing
the surveyors the delays previously EN-
countered, it is said, will be obliterated
Two supervising surveyors will be-
placed in the field and will examine
the work constantly as it progresses.
AS soon as practicable the surveyors
will be appointed by civil service ex-i
aminations. This cannot be done I'M
mediately, as the system must first be,
installed and placed upon a working
basis.

breast the ambition to be United
States senator-an ambition that never
left it, even in the darkest days that
followed
In 1891 his fame as speaker had
spread locally and he received many
invitations to address farmers picnics.
The last day of 1895 he left MISSISSIPPI
pi for Texas under solemn VOW
never to return to it unless as a Uni
ted States senator.
That year in Texas was a hard one
Gore threw himself into politics with
passionate energy. Again and again
the family was reduced to the verge
of physical suffering. Yet year after
year they kept up the fight for exist
ence without complaint. Nor did the
blind lawyer once despair of reaching
the senate, writes James Creelman in
Pearson's Magazine.
When Mr.. Bryan was nominated at
Kansas City in 1900 Gore found his
way to the crowd that surrounded the
convention. He managed to live in
Kansas City for six days at total
cost of $3.50 No one who heard his
voice ringing out over that scene of
national enthusiasm was permitted to
know, or even suspect, his poverty
Then he obtained an engagement in
South Dakota to speak during the
state and presidential campaigns. In
this way he picked up $1,000 and with
it went back to Texas and married
The Gore's--including his father and
brother-decided upon going to Okla
homa. In April, 1902. Gore managed to
go as a delegate to the territorial con-
yentton that was to choose a delegate
to congress from Oklahoma, and was
given seat in the territorial senate.
That summer the blind man had an
other terrible struggle to keep alive.
One day in June he had only eight
cents left. He held war council
with his wife to consider what they
should do with the eight cents. 1t was
decided that the money should be
spent on postage in an effort to secure
speaking engagements. The political
fight had to be kept up at any cost.
The fight for a seat in the United
States senate was now pressed sys-
tematically. Gore spent the year 1903
in widening his acquaintance, attend
ing picnics, barbecues and county
fairs, lecturing for anything from SIS to
$25, shaking hands with the crowds
and smiling his way into their hearts
His friends wanted him to abandon
his ambition for time and run for
congress. 1T is the senate or moth

Gore won his fight in the primary
election and was elected tolthe United
States senate by the legislature, draw.

elected.

marked, signed by the persons who

an adjoining room, where the sheets
are cut, and the bills are recounted|

next step is to bind them into pack

them to the drying vault, to lie upon

the ink shall become perfectly dry.
The utmost ingenuity is exercised to-
surround these transactions with every
possible safeguard. The chief Of the

To the Man In Love.

Do you remember that though
clothes do not make the man, they
often SO long way toward making a
favorable Impression, and the young
man would do well to realize this and
not allow himself to appear careless
in his attire, especially when in the
company of the girl he loves.
Do be reasonable, and don't allow
yourself to be disappointed when you
feel that the one you love is not quite
ideal There Is no perfect man or
woman in this world.
Do make her a little present now
and then. / do not mean expensive
gifts-they are not necessary-but an
occasional offering Of sweet flowers:
She will love them-and you.
Don't forget that though your sweets
heart may be impressed with your de-
votion and absorption to her, YOU
must not neglect your business in cons
sequence. Even she would notice 1t
in time, and women rightfully loathe
laziness in man.
Don't bore the girl you love with
an endless account of your business
when you meet her. 1t may interest
her to know of your expectations, your
ambitions to make your way ahead;
but too much of 1t is liable to be te-
dious.
