PATRoNIzE HOME INDUSTRY.

There has been much talk of the
support of home industry, and through

Walla meats and other foods, where it
is possible to secure them. AS has be-
fore been said, the papers have,
without having to be urged, helped in
this campaign and done all that could
possibly be done along this line. Had
it not been for the papers. the cam
paign could not have been half so sue

But yet. How many of these people
who talk Walla Walla cigars. meats,
groceries, dry goods and what not. are
reading Walla Walla papers? They say
that Walla Walla meat is good enough
We say that the Walla Walla papers
are good enough. They say there are
no better cigars than those made here

that the cigars are made as good and

WASHINGTON, Mar. 25.-InG uiry
at the navy department developed that
complaint has been heard that Captain
George r. Evans was supplying the
naval regulations with unique severity
on board the Salem. 1t was alleged
the discipline was harsh in the ex-
IRENE, and men were punished for tri-
vial offenses until the situation aboard
ship became unbearable.
The department was not satisfied as
to the truth of their allegations, but
to settle all doubt, sent Admiral Dill
bingham to Hampton Roads to make
personal investigation. The depart
ment is now awaiting his report and
if necessary will apply corrective mea-
sures. even if these involve a change
in personnel.
The Salem is under orders to leave
Hampton Roads within week to
make some backing tests in a conven-
lent harbor near by where this may
be done without interference with
merchant shipping.
These tests affect the efficiency of
the turbine engine. Afterwards she is
to make some wireless experiments

President Of the National League.
The umpire who has the least
trouble and makes the biggest hit
with the players and the spectators
isn't the man who visits the benches
of the opposing teams before the game
and makes himself popular with the
fellows by kidding them and trying
to be a good fellow.
It's the man who walks to the plate
as soon as he comes on the field.
brushes off the rubber. makes the cap
tains come 10 him with the batting
orders and then starts the contest
without further comment, who makes
the hit with the crowd and has the
respect OF the players.
And it's the men on the bench and
on the coaching lines-the men with
the alleged wit and vinegary comment,
who put the umpire so far in the air
that he throws out OF the game the
regular player who makes a kick on
a decision. Keep your men on the
bench quiet and you'll not have many
players canned.
