Syracuse Man Writes to Secure
Possession of Heifer Sold to
E. B. Marks Year Ago.

r. g. Marks of the Ahtanum.
breeder of Holsten cattle, has re-
ceived Il letter from syracuse, New
York. asking him to place value on
a Holstcin heifer purchased there
for him last season by II. c. Davis,
now of Granger. At the time Mcssrs.
Marks ana Davis brought in their
shipment from syracuse The Herald
said that they were working forward
to the time when the eastern fanCier
would come west. to the Yakima val
ley. To their herds, for his young
and new stock The first move has
been made sooner than was expected
by any person who had given the
subject any thought. Developments
in the dairy world have proven that
Mr.. Marks two years ago and Mr..
Davis a year ago made use of excel
lent Judgment when they made their
selections from the eastern herds. so
good has the judgment proven that
the eastern men are now trying to
buy back fro MIR. Marks animals
they allowed him to bring west. And
II must be remembered that an east
ern breeder must want heifer pretty
badly when he is willing to pay ex-
press charges on her from Yakima to
Syracuse, y. Y. Needless to say the
likelihood is that Mr.. Marks will find
himself as much in need OF the best
as the fasteners and decide to keep
the special animal now under con-
sideratiOn.

That There is Nothing There,
Fruit in Particular.

Charles Pfeffer. vice president of
the Carstens Packing company of
Tacoma was one of the visitors to
North Yakima Tuesday with the bust
ness men of the sound city who are
making tour of the state. Mr.. Pfef-
fer has just been in the east and as
a result of what he saw heard and
discovered there he has a word of
advice to Yakima farmers and fruit
growers.
Farmers and fruit growers of
Washington he said,' should take
all the pains they are capable of to
raise crops this season superior in
quality and quantity to anything they
have hitherto produced. They are
bound to get good prices. I have been
in the east and the middle west and
those sections will not begin to grow
enough of the products of the soil
this year to in any way meet the
home demand.
West Must Supply Food.
1.-THE supplies for food will have to
come from the west and the west still
has time with its irrigation methods,
to meet the demand. Farmers are
bound to get good prices for what
they produce as there is nothing
growing back there. 1 will venture
to say that the apple man who takes
care of his crop will get as a result a
dollar box for his apples more than
the highest price he has hitherto
received.
There is but one thing that the
west lacks and that is labor Be
cause of the peculiar conditions in
the east and middle west this year
that sections has the supply that we
lack. Now is the time to go after IL.

mites needing labor to advertise in the

plenty of good men there who will
come here if they know that they are
coming to something Definite

.BORAH SPIKES
ALOR|CH GUN
Rhode Island Senator Deplores
Reference to President Taft's
Des Moines Speech.
DURING DISCUSSION OF
THE CUMMINS AMENDMENT
Idaho Senator Retorts: "A Hit
Bird Always Flutters" in Re-
spouse to Senator Aldrich's
Criticism of Argument.

WASHINGTON, u. c.. May "a
Whether the railroad bill shall pro-
hibit fatty an increase in rates with
out the approval of the Interstate
Commerce commission or shall extend
to six months time during which the
commission may suspend increased
rates, was the question before the SEN
ate when it adjourned today.
The session was devoted to argu-
ments in favor of the Cummins pro-
vision by its author and by Borah and
Deliver The suggestion 'for an ex-
tension of time during which the COM
mission may extend rates was made
by Senator Martin. 1t was taken up
by number of senators on both sides
and soon became the basis of a gem
eral cloakroom discussion looking to a
compromise
In Borah's speech he was taken to
task by Aldrich for quoting from the
Des Moines speech of President Taft
to show the president believes that
rate increases should not take effect
without satisfying the commission of
their reasonableness. Aldrich said
while he recognized the right of the
president to make suggestions to con-
gress. he does not believe it proper to
bring in his unofficial utterance to af-
feet legislation.
Il deal only with the president
public statements and do not get his
views through private conference" re-
sponded the Idaho senator warmly
81 never supposed it improper to quote
here any of the presidents published
utterances.
He added, that while he had not felt
sure his Interpretation of the presi-
dents utterances had been justified
he did feel so after Aldrich's remarks
'The hit bird always fiutters," he said
Aldrich did not reply.

PROVE UNRESPONSIVE
Argument That Fight Game VIII
Iniure Chances for Exposition
Taken Very Seriously-Presby-
terians Also Take Stand.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 24.--The
first definite step in the campaign that
is beinG waged by representatives of
churches against prize fighting in gen
cral and the Jeffrics- Johnson contest
in particular was made today when a
delegation of prominent ministers APP
peared before the police committee of
the board of supervisors to protest
against the granting of a permit to the
Broadway Athletic Club to conduct a
boxing contest in this city July 4.
Ferget (Young MitchelD sat as chair
man of the board.
A recommendation was made by the
committee to the supervisors that the
permit be granted. Rev. William
RAIDER, Rev. A. Balm and Attorney j.
f. White took a leading part in vote
ing the protest or the church people
Chairman Hengert informed the Prot
estants that the Jeffries-J Ohnson fight
was merely scientific boxing exhibit
ton and that it would be counter
anced as such by law.
Turns Tables on Visitors.
Balm warned the committee that
they would jeopardize the chances of
the city to get government support for
the Panama-Pacific exposition if the
fighting game was encouraged Her
get replied by telling the ministers
that the Royal Arch had contributed
$4,000 to the exposition fund and
asked them how much the church
federation had subscribed.
Balm admitted nothing had been
subscribed by the federation but de-
clared that it was not a money making
institution. RAIDER warned Herget too
that the ministers objection to the
fight would turn out a much more
serious matter than Herget believed
4 wrangle ensued over whether JEFF
fries was a prize fighter and after an
other protest the ministers withdrew

MADE
TO FIND LABOR
Fruit Packers, Growers and Bust
ness Men Are to Assemble
for the Purpose Today.
TOPPENISH THE CENTER
OF UNUSUAL MOVEMENT
Wage Schedule and Hours of
Work Will Be Determined Up
on and Systematic Search for
Help !naugurated.

To solve the labor problem of the
Yakima valley will be the purpose of
a meeting at Toppensh at II O'Clock
thfS morning of representatives of
the various Commercial clubs of the
three counties of Kittitas, Yakima
and Benton. North Yakima will he
represented by DR. H. =. James, sec
rotary of the commercial club and
Rev. Alfred Henry. The meeting will
represent the fruit packers, the or
chardtstS and the business men of the
valley towns. They will endeavor to
form a plan of campaign which will
be reflective in bringing labor to this
country.
Organized Effort.
Organized and united action must
be taken. according to DR. James. who
speaks from his own convictions and
the opinion expressed to him by a
great many people with whom the
subject has been discussed. To get
labor here of the kind desired many
things must first be arranged Hours
of labor, a wage schedule and some
such definite conditions which will
be of general application must be
decided upon. Then there must be a
clearance house of some sort to
which the employers can express
their needs, leave their orders and
such detailed information as is nee
essary. This clearance house is need
ed also for the people who will seek
employment. Some will want one
kind of work and some another. The
conditions must be handled through
some sort of a bureau.
Plans of Action.
Alex. McCredy. who was taking
over the situation with DR.. James
Tuesday, suggested that in the early
days of the hop industry here num-
borS of skilled and desirable labor
crs We're always available in the DIAL
les country and he suggested that
such is the case today and that they
should be sent for. DR.. James believes
that now the attempt to get hands
for the orchards and fields will have
to be made in the cities and he ia
vors advertising in the papers of the
cities of the sound, Portland. Spo-
kane ana of the middle western
states.
Whatever is done. DIR. James says
must be done at once and must he
done i'm an orderly way so that all
needs will be met. that there will be
no misunderstanding and no confu.
sion. He is in hopes that the CON
ference at Toppenish today will fur
nsh the solution of condition which
is serious.
The suggestion was made by Mr.
James Tuesday, that the Horticultural
unions and such other organizations
which more nearly represent the men
needing the additional labor should
have acted on these maters some
time ago.

should have come to this city Mon

INDIANS ARE
TO Be TAUGHT
Housekeeping, Sanitation, Farm
ing and Several Other Essen
tial Things by Experts.
GOVERNMENT PREPARES
TO REMOVE ITS SUPPORT
Experts Have Given Their Advice
to the Effect That tie Red Man
Must be Placed on His Own
Resources to Earn a Livelihood.

-Four matrons have been placed AZ
work on the Yakima Indians reser-
walton to teach housekeeping ana the
things that a good housewife should
wives there. Several farmers are also
to be assigned to the reservation, in
to teach the Indian men about agrl-
culture, the care of animals. cult
walton of the soil and the numerous
other things that men should know
who are LIVING ON land aud attempt
ing to make living from it. Matrons
and farmers are white and are de-
clared to be competent and skilled
people. The matrons, in addition to
other things are trained nurses and
will be able to tell the Indian women
something about sanitation and meth
DDS of avoiding disease and of check
ing it's spread. Major Logan, who Is
supervisor on Indian reservations OF
the country, is on the Yakima reser-
walton now and is giving his atten-
ton to the Inauguration of the work
of the special agents, matrons and
condition among the resident In
dian families.
Make Rcd Men independents
Back of and as an impelling motive
to this effort to instruct the Indians
is Il desire to make them self sup
porting in order that the government
may withdraw its protecting hand
and place the Redmcn in an indeDen-
dent position to stand and rise or to
fail and fan according to their merits.
This is said to be the advise of those
who have given Ions study to the In
dian question. 1t is also the advice
of white people who have lived long
among the Indians or near to them
ana who have observed them closely.
The methods which have been pur-
sued, it is declared, have taken away
all initiative from the tribcsmcn and
have made them dependent and hest
tant Some who own valuable land
are prepared to administer their own
affairs but the conditions now do not
permit of it. That Indians be per-
mitted in fact compelled to mako
their own leases, transact their own
business and succeed of fail on their
business judgment is the advice of
numbers. 1t is perhaps the case that
the present instruction is in antici-
patton of this time. 1t may be also
in anticipation of the coming of the
numerous whites who will occupy
the soil when the reservation Is de-
clarcd open.
