BOARD WANTS
APPROPRIATION
Improvement at Various In.
stitutions Call for Large
Expenditures.

Olympia.-If the Orting Home II
continued. $3,421.216 will be the total
of the budget for the State Board Of
Control. or in event the Soldiers
Home at Orting is consolidated with
the Veterans Home at Port Orchard.
$3.600,657 will be the total the board
will ask of the legislature at the next
session.
In addition the five higher educa.
uonal institutions are asking for q
sum in excess of 100000 These
estimates will be submitted by the
board to the legislature without rec
ommendation. Combining them, the
total is $500. 900. which exceeds that
appropriated by the 1908 legislature
for the entire state.
The State Board of Control Is
mapping out system of improve
ments at the various state institutions
that calls for big expenditure. New
buildings are wanted at practically

Home decided by the state to the fed
eral government for the establishment
of a national home there that would
correspond to the one at Santa Mon

The manner in which past legis.
latures have cut down appropriations
for the School for the Blind at Van
couver is condemned by the board.
which says until recently nothing was
provided for them except food and
shelter and little attention paid to
their progress. The board says that
the building now occupied is obsolete
and asks that 1t be abandoned entire
ly. The board also asks a new ward
building for the girls at the School
for the Deaf in Vancouver.

NEW METHOD OF
REMOVING STUMPS

The article below. reprinted from
the Bellingham Herald has already
been printed by many of our exchang-
es. 1t is good news for many of our
farmers who still have large stumps
to remove, and coming as it does fro d
our Agricultural School at Pullman,
the method is worth trying.
That logged off lands can be clear
ed of stumps, removing roots 10
depth below the reach of a plow, and
at cost of less than so cents a
stump has been demonstrated by the
experiments of Prof. Fl. w. Sparks Of
the State college at Pullman. The re-
suit of these experiments is being
spread broadcast among the farmers
and owners Of logged-off lands.
Prof. Sparks successful experiments
have been with the char-pit method.
Once understood this method is the
most simple and inexpensive that can
be imagined. A little fire, a little
watchfulness are the essentials in the
process by the combination of which
the most hopeless looking stumpy acr
age can be prepared for the plow in
the course of two weeks.
Public demonstration of the char-pit
method were given early this month
at the University of Washington, at
Georgetown, suburb of Seattle, and
1T Kirkland on Lake Washington
Many people interested in land clear
ing, agriculture, conservation and kin
1red subjects followed the progress OF
these demonstrations with great inter
est and at the end there was no dis
sent from the verdict that a cheap
and practical method of removing
stumps has at last been devised.
That char-pit method is simply an
adoption of the old and well-known
method of making charcoal by burn
ing in closed pits. 1t depends for its
efficiency on concentration of heat. 4
ring Of loose wood, bark, etc, is first
laid all the way round the stump anil
as close to it as possible, and this is
then covered to depth of about Elk

FIGHTING RESUMED
BY MEXICANS.
Peace Commission Hamper
ed by Soldiers in
Restoring Order

Ell Paso. Tex.-A telegram from
Maria, Tex, states that apprehension
and excitement prevails at both Pre-
sidio and Candelaria, 80 miles south
of the Texas side of the river, owing
to the revolutionary disorders re-
ported on the Mexican side. Nothing
definite has yet been learned of the
reported fight at Ojinaga Saturday
night. Firing has been heard at in
tervals, but so far as can be learned
there has been no loss of life.
Members of the peace commission
returning to Chihuahua reported that
their work was greatly embarrassed
by the fact that soldiers followed at
their heels. At Guerrero, just as they
were beginning to talk with the in
surrectos, a peon arrived with word
that the soldiers were on the way,
whereupon the meeting promptly
came to an end.
Main Grievance Against State.
AT 0uCIIcIO, anu oiSO at 0dh AhtO
nio, the commissioners were told that
the main grievance is against the
state government rather than against
Diaz.
Seemingly authentic reports state
that Guerrero has been taken by the
revolutionists with some loss of life.
Details are lacking. 1t is reported
that General Plata, commanding this
military zone, is to be succeeded by
Juan Hernandez Immediately
1t is learned that the peace com
which left Chihuahua to treat
with the insurrectos was acting un-
der the authority of Governor San
chez, and not President Diaz.

SECRETARY BALLINCER
MAY Be IMPEACHED

Washington.-A resolution for the
impeachment of Secretary Ballinger
has been proposed and may be
Introduced in the house at any time
its introduction is timely. If the min
ority report. censuring Ballinger. is
adopted by the house. the impeach-
ment resolution will follow almost
Immediately. perhaps at the same
time the minority report is adopted.
The probability that the house will
follow that course by a combination
between insurgents and Democrats
worries the administration very much.
II the house should impeach, the SEN
ate must, under the constitution, sit
a. Judge on the house charges.
Only q change in the present situa-
ton can prevent the house from
adopting the report censuring Ballin-
ger, and 1t is argued that then the
house must go on to impeachment or
be Inconsistent.

the wind is blowing. The wood is then

half an hour until the fire is Well star

into the stump the blanket of earth
must be kept right up t. the stump

tunity to break out. The top of the
stump doesn't burn but is simply cut
off cleanly, at a point about level

When the top has been cut off by
the fire and rolls off the whole crown

sometimes done to a depth of fifteen

been successful have been with clay
soil. This baked and hardened by the
ire cohserves the highest degree of
heat. Sandy or stony soil Sits in and
puts out the fire or permits it to

ing out certain theories by which he
expects to perfect a similar method
adapted to other soils than clay.
The practicability of the char-pit
method means much to the owner OF
logged-off lands and will undoubtedly
lead to larger settlement upon and
cultivation Of such lands.

The city election at Anacortes was
a disappointment to the friends OF
prohibition and of woman's suffrage.
At the general election with men on
ly voting the wet" element carried
Anacortes by only four votes. One
month later at the city election where
2SO women voted, the wet" majori-
ties are thirty to forty.
We sincerely hope this vote does
not indicate the general opinion Of
the women of the state with regard
to the saloon.

NO BATTLESHlP FLEET
Coast Will Not Be Protected Until
Canal Opens.

Washington.-The Pacific Coast Will
not get a battleship fleet until the
Panama Canal is completed, accord
ing to the annual report OF the Sec
retary of the Navy. This is reiter'
alton of statements made by Secre-
tary Meyer on his recent tour OF the
Coast.
An eq1ally important feature OF the
Secretay's report is his free and frank
criticism of the two navy-yards on the
Pacific Coast, both Of which, in his
Judgment, were poorly located, the
Puget Sound yard because of its dis
tance from any large city. and the
Mare Island navy yard because OF
shallow water, rendering it valueless
in the repair of battleships and heavy
cruisers. and also because of its re-
moteness from San Francisco.

 THE Initiative and Referen- dun Amendment No. 10 is one of the most important Amend ments the voters of Arkansas have had an opportunity to vote on for some years. To a person who views it from the theory on which it is based surely no good citizen can oppose this Amend m ent and every one ought to be interested in its passage. The ARGUS will print several articles of explanation on this Amend ment between now and the Sept. 18th election. The Amendment appears in full on another page.

THERE'S lots of real pleasure in meeting a MAN. So many men who stand out in the world and pose as real men, never req lize that in truth they stand but little higher than the lower or der of animals. They pervert their minds into sewers, and vl- trol pots, their words and lirs give forth vile utterances, they allow their hearts to become can- kered with hatred, jealousy and selfshness. A MAN is NOT of this stripe; he thinks of others, man tries to help somebody ey- cry day even if the one helped is merely a servant, man works and smiles as he works, smiles as he pays his debts, refrains from speaking evil, overlooks and excuses the faults of others, remembering himself that there never was but one perfect crea- ture on earth and that one was Jesus, the Christ. It is pleas ure to meet MAN, but did you stop to think of it-like purest gold-comes from many trials and refinings and even then he is not can not be perfect. The truth is, that all of us have enough fault and weakness to cause us to sympathize with and desire to help the fellow who is trying to burn away the dross out of his life and when we do this, we are doing our best at making MEN.
