OBSERVER POINTS OUT THREE
PLACES WHERE HE THINKS
THE LINES WILL CONNECT
VERY COMPLETE EVIDENCE.

Yakima, March 11.-An interest
ed observer of railroad building in
this vicinity has it figured that the
North Coast is a part of the Milwau-
kee system and he believes that
Standard Oil money is behind the
whole deal. In advancing his argu-
ment he makes deductions of an in
teresting nature There are several
points upon which he bases his be-
lief.
''The Milwaukee is building down
the Columbia river from Beverly to
Hanford," he said today, "and the
North Coast has a line surveyed from
Kennewick up to within couple of
miles of Hanford This with other
indicated connections by the same
two railroads is pretty good evidence
that the two are associated in some
way.
Terminals in Common.
over at Spokane the two railroads
have joint terminals, which, in 9TH
or words, means to me that the same
company is behind the deals. A
space of about $50 feet is left va
cant between the two roads, one
coming in from one direction and
the other going out in the other d.
rection. Between the two. 1t Is said,
depot will be built. This is the
joint terminal.
1T is pretty we'll established that
the Milwaukee will run line over
through the Mckee to this city and
On towards the coast. Many are OF
the belief that the Milwaukee will
seek an outlet to the coast through
the Cowlitz pass. This is my belief.
figure that the Milwaukee will go

up the Naches and Tieton valleys
and then on through the pass. With
in a few miles of the pass on the
other side of the mountains the ter
minal of the Tacoma & Eastern is
to be found. That road Is part OF
the Milwaukee system. 1t was at
first denied by the officials, but now
it is known positively that it is. This
is point three in my chain of evil
dence.
II do not believe that the road will
seek a direct route to Portland
through the Cowlitz pass. The fact
Is that the Milwaukee will run over
the Union Pacific tracks out of Ia
coma. There the big Milwaukee
system has it's shops located and
with a route to Portland the system
is quite complete.
Short and Long Routes.
'The northern route to Seattle Is
the shortest. Over that line through
freight and passenger trains will be
run and the road that is to tap this
section will carry much tonnage from
this district; in fact, it will carry ten
times as much freight out of this Sec
ton as it will from the corresponding
section to the north.
1.-THE chain of evidence OF which l
speak is further made strong by the
fact that the Milwaukee stockholders
are behind the Hanford pumping sys-
tenn. This section is also to be tap
ped by line from Spokane, crossing
the Northern Pacific to the east OF
Hanford and the Columbia river at
Ethiopia. This line has already been
surveyed and building will commence
upon it in the not distant future. 1t
will cross the Columbia at Ringold
bar and will make for Hanford or
some point in that vicinity with which
the line from the north and the line
from the south will also connect"

FEAR J[N RULE N
hO[I LANDS
YOUNG TURKS ALARMED AT
RAPID INCREASE IN POPULA-
TION; MAY START FIGHT-COL-
ONIZATION SPREADING.

Constantinople, March 11.-Rapid
growth of the Jewish population in
Asiatic-Turkey is causing alarm
among the leaders of the young Turks
who are rumored to be endeavoring
to arrive at a solution of the prob
lem.
So much more capable are the Jews
than the ignorant Fellaheen or peas
antry that the latter are being crowd
ed from their homes and lands and
a feeling of intense bitterness is de-
veloping against the invaders.
Fear Attempts to Gust.
The fear that a forcible attempt
may be made to GUST the Jews is
growing here. The authorities have
been warned to use stern repressive
measures to check disorders and
bloodshed as the young Turks realize
that peace at home and aboad is nee
essary at the present time to the sta
bility of their administration.
The young Turks, moreover, are
partly blamed by the people for ad-
hitting the Jews and the problem, it
is agreed, is likely to be fraught with
growing danger for the present and
future cabinets.
Jews Are Increasing.
Four-fifths of the population of
Jerusalem is Jewish, and the Jews
are constantly increasing. Outside
the Holy City, Zionist agents have
been and still are buying lands from
embarrassed Mohammedan
Effendis.
The famous Esdraelon Plain is fill
ing with Jewish settlers and the an
cient limits from Dan to Beersheba
again mark the extent of the Jewish
colonization.

HIGH LIVING COST

ENTIRE WORLD-FRESH NEAT
RISE LEAST.

Washington, D. c., March Ii
Meat prices have advanced in all the
principal producing and consuming
| sections of the world, according to
compilations just made by the Bureau
of Statistics of the Department of
Commerce and Labor. The figures
which the Bureau has compiled con-
sist chiefly of the export prices of the
principal meat-exporting countries,
and the import and quoted wholesale
prices in the chief meat-importing
and consuming countries.
The chief meat-exporting countries
are Australia, New Zealand, Argen-
tine, Canada and the United States;
and the chief meat-importing coun-
tries, the United Kingdom, Germany
ana, in less degree, the other Eu-
ropean countries. All of the meat ex-
porting countries show higher prices
per pound in their exports in recent
years than those of a decade ago, and
all of the meat-importing countries
show higher rates in their import fig
ures and in the current market quo
tations.
Fresh Meats Cheaper. :.
Curiously, however, the advance in
fresh meats is less than that in sailed
and preserved meats, and in nearly
all cases the advance in beef is less
than that in pork and mutton. The
fact that the percentage of advance
in prices of fresh meats, especially
those exported in the chilled or frozen
state. has not been as great as that
of sailed or preserved meats is sup
posed to be due, in part at least, to
the reductions made during the past
decade in the cost Of chilling or freez-
ing and transporting meats of this
class, and to the increased supply of
fresh meats in European markets, re-
sulting from the growth of the sys-
tenn.
On the other hand, prices of fresh
mutton have advanced more than
those of fresh beef, the reason being
presumably, the comparatively slow
growth in the worlds supply of sheep
and the consequent advance in price
Of wool.
Considering more in detail the price
movements in various countries, sta
tistics of exports from Australia indi-
cate, in the case of beef preserved by
cold process an advance in export
price from 1928 per 100 pounds in
1899 to $40 in 1908; mutton and
lamb, from 1892 per 100 pounds in
1899 to $6.47 in 1908, an advance of
3 per cent in price of fresh beef, and
of practically 70 per cent in that of
mutton and lamb. Similar conditions
are disclosed by the statistics Of ex-
ports of meats from New Zealand,
which cover a period from 1896 toI
1908.
The average export price of frozen
beef has in that period risen from
$4.53 per 100 pounds to 1922; that
Of frozen lamb, from $500 to 1907;
and that of frozen mutton, from $3.50
to $3.50. an advance in average ex-
port price of Is per cent in the case
of frozen beef, 81 IL per cent in that
of frozen lamb, and nearly 80 per cent
in that of frozen mutton exported
from New Zealand.
