that the real safeguard for your IN

Spencer Janney Steinmetz, of Bos-

fact "that the cotton mills of Mexico
do not produce one-fifth of the cotton

HOW CHANLE3
GOT WIFE
Pre-Nuptial Agree
ment Filed.in ~.
New York
$4,000 PER-, YEAR

New York, Sept. 16-The pre-nuptial
agreement between Robert Winthrop
Chanler, Of this city, and his bride,
Lima Cavalieri, the prima donna, OF
Paris, was filed Saturday in the office
of the register of New York county.
La Cavalieri's full name is given as
Natalina Cava1ieri, spinster, an Italian
subject, resident in Paris.
After defining the purpose of the
agreement as designed to remove all
doubts that might exist owing to the
different nationalities of the princf-
pals as to the law governing their mu-
tual property rights, the document
proceeds to state that Gin considera-
ton of the sum of one dollar paid and
said intended marriage" Chanler shall
assign to his wife all his real estate
all his interest in the estate of the
late Mrs. Laura Delano, subject to
mortgage of about $4,000, 'for her
sole and separate use absolutely"
For the {, @oruon OF one
dollar and ~ 80 marriasea:;a
bridegroom : ~ further covenant"
to pay his wire $4,000 a year in four
quarterly installments, "all payments
free from income or other taxes" and
for the purpose of securing the pay
ment of the said yearly sum" La Cava-
ieri is constituted "his true and law
full attorney, irrevocable," to collect
The rents and profits.
Should the income from the real
estate prove insufficient at any time to
pay the $4,000 yearly agreed on,
second power of attorney is conferred
to govern the income payable from
the fund held in trust from him by
the New York Life and Insurance
Trust Company.
Should this additional income still
prove insufficient, third power of at
torney is conferred to govern the in
come from the fund held in trust by
the Union Trust Company.
With the exception of these details,
the agreement specifies that the prop
Ierty of each of the principals shall
remain the separate property and un>
der the sole control of each of them,
land furthermore, that their status and
capacity generally shall govern by the
laws of the State of New York.
If Mrs. Chanler cared to attempt to
compel her husband to carry out the
terms of his pre-nuptial contract, the
filling of the original here by her
lawyers would be her lr-t step in any
effort to interpose her rights between
him and his crditors, who it is sup
lposed will contest the agreement
The document not only confers the
lsweeping power enumerated above,
but it lists parcel by parcel all the
real estate taken under its control.

COMMENDS
PRES. TAFT.
Roosevelt Challenge
to His Repubi-
canOpponents
IN FIGHTING TRIM

Syracuse. N. Y, Sept. 19.-Coming
into stronghold of the opposition, ex-
President Roosevelt Saturday boldly
challenged the opponents of his poll
tical doctrines to come out in the
open and fight if they dared. He pro-
phesied that if they did they would
be beaten.
The former President also gave
warm commendation of President
Taft as a public official and express
ed his approval of a number of the
accomplishments of the Taft admins
tration. Colonel Roosevelt did not en-
dorse the administration as a whole.
What he did have to say, however,
placed him on record for the first
time in regard to many of the more
important features of it, breaking the
silence which he had maintained
steadfastly on the subject except for
his brief reference to his successor
made while he was on his Western
trip.
He also defended his recent criti
cisms of two decisions of the United
States Supreme Court, made in
speech in Denver and quoted the
words of William II. Taft, written
when he was judge, to support his
contention that the people have the
right to critielse decisions of the
courts.
Col. Roosevelt, who arrived here
spoke to a crowd estimated at more
than 10000 persons at the State fair
grounds. Col. Roosevelt also rode
around the mile track at the head of
a parade, and received cordial vel
come.
Lieut.. Gov White made one of the
shortest speeches on record when he
introduced Colonel Roosevelt at the
fair grounds.
eve are here today to welcome and
to honor Theodore Roosevelt" he
said.
The Colonel looked up IN surprise as
the Lieutenant Governor finished.
.'Do, i speak now?s he asked.
q Whites said sthat the time had
and the Colonel arose. He was
nghting trim as he faced the crowd.
He himself said so. Several times he
departed from the text of his pre-
pared speech to inject remarks to
show how earnestly he meant what
he said.
81 wish that my opponents would
come into the open," he said.
"They shoot from the bushes he
declared at another place, "but you
couldn't make them come into the
open and fight the issue
Further along he again dared his
opponents to put themselves on record
as against him.
Friends, they won't do it," said he
"They may criticise me, but they will
walk as though they were treading on
eggs before they take the other side. -
After he had asserted that leaders
in business must act as servants of
the people and that the corporations
must be the creature and not the
master of the people, he added
"To paraphrase the words of Pat
trick Henry: IF that be socialism,
make the most of -
That's a fairly decent ideal, isn't
it?" he asked after he had declared
that each man should have a fair

none. "There is no appeal to the

FINLAND SUMMERS.
Effect Of the Famous "White Nights"
Upon Vegetation.

Upon Vegetation.
The famous white nights" Of the
north are a most surprising phenome-
non to the visitor from southern climes.

for the first time upon yeranda nj
midnight and read u newspaper or to
walk home from a restaurant at !
o'clock In the morning and to see peo-
pie still gossiplng ut the street corners
or strolling along the promenades un.
der bright, clear sky.
A spirit Of rest and peace Is over all
the earth. The sky Is bright, not with
the fiery brilliancy Of noon, but with a
tender, gentle radiance. The colors of
the landscape have become softened,
but not blended. There are no shad.
ows save for week or two In June.
when the bright northern sky at mid
night projects faint, ghostllke shadows
toward the south. The sun Just dips
below the horizon and no more. There
Is no division between the sunset and
the dawn. The same rosy flush serves
for both.
Summer In Finland Is, In fact. one
long day. Never q star Is to be seen,
and when the first faint star glimmers
in the south 1t Is a sign that the sum
mer Is past and that the autumn frosts
have arrived.
The long light has marvellous effect
upon vegetation. forcing its growth at
dollhouse pace. The white nights" ac-
count both for the suddenness of the
burgeoning and for the intensity Of
the heat. Land and water have no
time to cool. One cannot fail to be
struck with the enormous size Of the
foliage upon the oak and hawthorn
trees as compared to that to which we
are accustomed. Botanists have ex-
planned this as being due to the larger
supply of light. 1t has sometimes been
suggested that we may hasten the har-
vests by the use of artificial lights
Nature herself does this for the Fin
nish farmer.

What Other Cities are

their Resources and
Opportunities for In
veStment.


$500 per day in telling Eastern
people about Oregon. Now we
ask why they do it.
Since the Lewis and Clarke
fair at Portland in 1905, that
city has seen such a remarkable
growth and prosperity as to
startle the most conservative.
The same people who have for
years lived in that beautiful city
of roses have had their skepti-
cism removed by proof which is
convincing. They have seen
their business increase three fold
in less than five years; they
have seen the dollar that moves
men to do things, come to them
with practically no effort beyond
a little missionary publicity and
cooperation. They stand organ
lied like a trained battalion
ready to take advantage of any
opportunity which would be an
advantage to their fair city;
they are ready to move at a
moments notice to crush a COM
mon enemy of her large inter-
ests. You ask what has done it.
We say publicity by live and ag-
gressive men who know how to
champion the battle of progress.
They called to their aid the COM
bined strength of brains and
money to aid them in a good
cause. While the men of the
club are of different religious
belief and in the open arena OF
political life battle against one
another like giant game of the
forest; But when it comes to
the upbuilding of their city, and
its welfare is at issue, these
mighty giants in politics anc
religious adherents stand to-
gether as one and fight to a COM
mon end like a trained army OF
soldiers.
400 miles east of her is anoth-
er city which has another such
organization. A city, which
only few years ago was moth

population of 10000. She

powers into action and laid her
keel with such skill and ability
as could not be overcome by any
temporary set back. Today she
breaths with clock-like precision
and stands as a credit to west.

Spokane.
These two cities are today

supremacy is directed by the
brainiest men of each organ
ization. Each wants more ter
ritory in which to distribute he
articles of commerce. And eacl
side will carry its scars of tn
battle before the territorial trad
pie is cut. And as long as th'
organizations stand they will
command the utmost respect TO
each other, but should they dis
band on one side and remain tn
other, the result would be dis
astrous to the disbanders.
Surrounding those centers o

Doctor q. q. Doherty Visiting his For mer Home h the State of
 Washington.

The following from the Belling- ham Reveille will be read with in- terest by everybody in Nogales and vicinity. and by many in Sonora:
 When Doctor A. A. Doherty of Nogales, Ariz., who is visiting with Victor Roeder for couple of weeks, first struck Bellingham in 1882, there wasn't the sign of railroad into the town, there were less than five hundred inhabitants and The Reveille was being issued from little shop on Reveille Hill from an old-fashioned Washington hand press.
 q came to Bellingham in 18S2," said Dr. Doherty, land opened an office for the practice of dentistry. Later I engaged in the drug busi- ness with Charles Donovan and Harry Ross. This is my first return to Bellingham since 1884, when left for the far Southwest. l know exactly how Rip Van Wrinkle felt when he awoke from his twenty years sleep.
 "I went away when Bellinghan was a village, with but a handfu of people and no means of com munication with the outside worlC except the old steamboats Wash ington and Idaho, which called a this port three times week-some times.

 Dr. Doherty, who is now located at Nogales, Arizona, is dental sur geon for the Southern Pacific. His excursion to Bellingham was made solely for the purpose of seeing the city and greeting old friends. The doctor has enjoyed hugely his chats with such old time friends as Post master Hugh Eldrige, Robert Knox and others.
