JOnes-WilsOn Combine.

The braZen announcement of a SEN
atorial combine between Wesley l..
Jones. senator from the Eastern
side of Washington, and John L.
Wilson, who is seeking a seat in the
senate from the Western section,
should arouse every man in Tacoma
and in Pierce county to the absolute
necessity of electing James M. Ash
ton to the United States senate.
The success of the Jones-Wilson
combine means the clipping of the
political power of Pierce county for
not less than twelve and probably
eighteen years. If the unholy COM
bine should succeed in it's purpose
and John l.. Wilson be elected to
the United States senate from West
ern Washington, he and Jones, with
their powerful newspaper backing,
might continue in office indefinite
ly.
What would be the result? There
might be a division of spoils between
Jones and Wilson, but the probable
ity is that the spoils would all go
to Wilson. 1t is probably understood
between Wilson and Jones that Sc
attic is to have the bulk of the good
things that come through having
representation at the national cap

Public Indifference.

Seven hundred and fifty tons OF
white paper are used daily in New
York city alone. That means some
$500 acres of forest are cut down
each day to print the newspapers,
magazines and periodicals that are
sent broadcast every hours during
the twenty-four.
And this is but a small percentage
Of the total consumption in the
United States. Certainly the white
paper question is an important one,
not only important to the consumer,
but of vast Importance to the pub
lie in general.
With careless Indifference the Am
erican public refuses to consider the
question of what is to become of its
forests. With one city among ma
ton of a hundred million or more
requiring the stripping of $500
acres, how long can We expect the
supply to last?
The halls of congress, clogged with
indifferent, ignorant, honor seeking
representatives, insist that the wood
for producing paper in the United
States is without end. Publishers
who pay the bills for white paper
know differently.
Political lines should be swept to
one side when it comes to dealing
with the white paper question. 1t
is not important to the editor only.
The fact that paper is costing more
will find it's level sooner or later
Papers will still be published no
mater what the cost. But the de-
stroying, of the forests-that goes
deeper and means the destroying OF
water storing facilities. 1t does not
require any deep thinker to find the
answer when this day comes. But
| if won't come. There is no use get
ting peevish about it. The American
public is going to shake off its man
tie of indifference and act, and the
best way to act is to serve notice on
some of the sleek gentlemen that go
Washingtonward each year that 1t
is time for a new deal.-American

PARTY STRANDED
At BREWSTER
Eight of Wenatchee Boost
ers Failed to Secure Auto
Conveyance to Methow.
(By Wireless at a. M, from H. Z.
Littlefleld at Brewster)

The trip to the Methow and the
Okanogan country is not all unal-
loyed bliss, judging from the reports
which came down the river this
morning. The party reached Pateros
at 5o'clOck yesterday afternoon and
three auto loads left Immediately for
Twlsp and the Methow. There was
not room for the entire party in the
autos and H. c.. Littlefield, +. ID
Case, Morey and Tumble were
left at Patesos. Lou Bowman was
to have been at Pateros with an au-
to to take these men on up the val
ley. After waiting several hours a
telephone message was received that
he>and his auto were IN ditch. Inc
four men then secured rig ana
drove over to Brewster, arriving
there last night about l O'Clock. IL
was planned to get out OF Brewster
for the Okanogan, but the auto stage
had broken axle, putting it out or
commission and at s o'clock this
morning the party were resolved to
90 I'D the Okanogan even If they had
to foot it, but just what means of
conveyance could be obtained was
not known.
After leaving Pateros last night
the four men were met by Schanck' S
auto in which were Messrs. Schanck,
Bliss and Wieland. These men went
| by way of Waterville, but had had
numerous misfortunes on account OF
punctures. They had had nothing to
eat from the time they left here
early in the morning. Their plan
was to go up the Okanogan early
this morning.
E. R. Tyler's White Steamer met
the excursionists at PaterOs and left
for the upper country with o. M
| Thomason, c. A. Nutley and G. II.
Whitson and R. w. Dudley. After
going few miles the auto broke
down and the party had to walk in
to Brewster, arriving there some
time during the night. This left
eight of the party who had planned
to be in the Methow at Brewster
and a counsel of war was held this
morning, with the result that it was
unanimously decided to go to the
Okanogan somehow or other and it
| is safe to say that the party will get
I'D the river during the day.
Nothing was heard of the party
| which made this trip up the river.

THE MYSTERY OF THE SALMON.

There is no member OF the large
family of fishes that presents more
interesting study than the salmon-not
only because of the mystery Of certain
phases Of it's life, but because Of its
commercial value as supplier of
wholesome food for mankind. The
salmon is one of very few fish which
are able to live in both fresh and salt
water. The female salmon seek the
streams of their birth at four years
old, making the most strenuous efforts
to reach their remotest tributaries.
After ascending rapids and leaping
waterfalls they at last reach suitable
place to deposit their eggs. They pos
sess but one set of ovaries, and both
they and the males which follow die
when the reproductive process is COM
pleted. 1t is pathetic sight to see the
bruised and battered condition of these
noble fish. the result of their attempts
to ascend swift mountain streams.
During the season of their birth in the
smaller streams the small fry descend
to the ocean and are not heard from
again until at four years of age they
ascend the streams in which they were
hatched and sacrifice life, as did their
progenitors. There has been much
speculation as to where this interval is
spent. but no one has as yet solved the
mystery. 1t is said that after leaving
the ocean salmon take no food, being
seemingly bent on the one purpose Of
perpetuating their kind. Another well
known fact yet unexplainable is that
salmon will frequent one stream to
spawn, yet will avoid another water
course near by seemingly as good and
without any apparent reason. The Chi
! nook salmon, which often attains a
weight of eighty pounds. is the most
highly priced for food, and it is this
kind which has the rich flavor and
shows the deep salmon color when
taken from the can. The catch Of
salmon has been so great in recent
years that millions of eggs are now
| hatched annually in plants owned by
| the government in order to replenish
the rapidly decreasing supply.

FERRO CEMENT ROADS.
France Trying Experiments With
Highways Made of This Material.


Ferro cement roads are being expert
mented with in France. The substance
is made Of cement mixed with straw.
To make slab or block of ferro ce-
ment mass of iron straw is placed in
the mold, and there is poured over it
cement sufficiently fluid to penetrate
into all the interstices Of the iron and
completely cover it. When the whole
has set, the core Of iron thus intimately
incorporated gives to the block great
resistance to breakage and to traction,
at the same time furnishing elasticity
to compression which enables it to
stand superficial shocks. A brick Of
ferro cement one and three-fifths inches
thick has supported during crushing
tests pressure of about siXty-five tons
to the square inch. In breakage tests
the resistance was quadruple that of
ordinary cement. Resistance to wear
was no less remarkable.

The Use of Wide Tires.

AS to the desirability of the use of
the wide tires there can be no ques-

suffice to convince any one of the dam
age which a heavily laden wagon
equipped with the ordinary sharp,
rounded, narrow tires will produce on
any road. There is also another and
perhaps even greater advantage to be
gained by the use of wide tires-name-
ly, the increased hauling capacity at

WATER RIGHT GUARANTEES.

The settler in any Of the arid or
semiarid sections of the west. where
irrigation is required in the growing
of crops of whatever kind, should in
the purchase of land be most partic-
ular in regard to the water rights
which go with it. He should see to it
first of all that the parties back of the
irrigation system are absolutely relia-
BILE and above even the suspicion of
crookedness and dishonesty. A gov
ernment irrigation project is reliable
in the matter of it's water guarantees,
for no more land is sold than the en-
gineers are positive can be adequately
supplied with water when moisture is
needed. There are some private irri-
CATION companies whose guarantee is
just as good, but there are many other
long prices in which water could not
be furnished in sufficient quantities at
the critical time if one were to wait
till he became gray headed. Water in
the ditch between November and May,
when it is not needed or used, is a
different thing than little or no water
from May to October, when it is need
ed; hence when irrigated land is
bought the guarantee of the water
privileges must be in the most direct
and plain terms, SO that no loophole
will be left through which the guaran-
tors may evade furnishing a service
for which they are duly paid. 1t may
hn m fn n ftnr
this matter, but attending to it at the
proper time will mean a lot less grief
later on.

chance to tourists to see many new

is also being taken in the new snow
clearing engine that is to be used in
keeping the tracks of this line clear of
snow. a gigantic task indeed in that
