Whether this argument against the
Pinchot policy is true to the letter
the fact remains that there is much
merit to it. The Northwest has hum
dreds Of thousands of acres OF land
tied up in forest reservations. Those
sections will certainly not develop so
long as they are not open to settle
ment; without the settler how Is the
Northwest to be developed? Certain
ly it cannot progress as rapidly. When
a newspaper owner like former Uni
ter States Senator John L. Wilson
returns from Washington city after
an exhaustive study of the question
and announces that the Pinchot poll
icy, popular as it is, is a great draw
back to the Northwest and that he
Is prepared and proposes to fight it,
there must be at least two sides to
to the question.

American Girls Fiance.

London, March 2.-The American
colony in London is looking forward
with eager interest to the wedding
of Miss Mildred Carter, daughter of
J. Ridgely Carter, former secretary
of the American embassy here and
now the Minister to the Balkans, and
Viscount Acheson, heir of the late
Earl of Gosford. The wedding is to
take place in London at the end Of
June and will doubtless be one of the
most brilliant events of the season.
Viscount Acheson, who is the latest
English nobleman to capture an AM
erican beauty for his bride, is the
eldest son of the fourth Earl of Cos
ford. He was born in 1877 and re-
ceived his education at Harrow. AS
an officer of the Coldstream Guards
he served through the last Boer war
and was wounded in the battle OF
Modder river. After the war he re-
signed his commission and became a
clerk in the great banking house of
Rothschild for the purpose of secur-
ing thorough business education.
The Viscount is no stranger to the
native land of his bride-elect, for he
has paid several visits to the United
States and is we'll acquainted social
ly in New York and Newport.
The founder of the Viscount's fam
lily was Sir Archibald Acheson who.
though he had settled In Ireland,
where the family estates are still To-
Gated, died as Secretary Of State for
Scotland, of which country he was a
native. In the latter part OF the
eighteenth century the sixth baronet
of the line was transformed into Wis
count Gosford. His son was advanced
to the rank OF an earl, and the second
earl was Governor Of Canada.

Fashion Show Opens in Chicago

Chicago, March Are one-piece
dresses still in the mode? Are the
spring styles radical, or will last
years" do? What are the fabrics
and what are the trimmings? And
where, oh where! will the waist line
be? For answers to these and In
Vulnerable other questions relating
to the styles for the coming spring
and summer one needs but to attend
the Wearing Apparel, Textile and
Fashion Show, which opened in the
Coliseum today under the auspices
of the National Trade Show company.
Every article of wearing apparel for
man, woman and child is shown at
the exhibition.
But more than clothes are shown.
The proper way of wearing the ar
ticles exhibited is demonstrated in the
various booths with live models. Fat
women are shown how to dress to
make themselves appear thin, and
vice versa; the short may learn how
to acquire seeming height and the
thin man is told just how much his
clothes should be padded and what
patterns should be used in their con-
struction to make him an Adonis.
Among the costumes displayed by
the living models are numerous
French patterns, which are not un-
like "nighties' with-well, suffice 1t
to say, that they certainly cast In the
shade the famous sheath gown. Then
there is the bewildering array Of
spring hats-style straws which show
which way the wind Of fashion IL
blowing. The Indications are that
flowers are to reign supreme In the
millinery world the coming season.
Also the large hat Is to retain its pres
tige. though there are new flares and
rolls and droops to the brim, and in
one novel transformation which at
tracted attention. today the back and
front OF the hat are turned sharply
mp to give An airship effect.

G. N. RUNS NEW SURVEY

Branch Line, Harrington to Wilson
Greek, Report.
Harrington, March 2.-The crew
of Great Northern surveyors which
struck town Wednesday, coming in
from the northwest, purchased sup
plies from several Harrington firms.
They have been running lines
around town in several places, but
just what significance these prelimi-
nary surveys have, no one seems to
know. Many rumors are afloat, but
nothing definite is known. 1t is said
that they can find, or rather have
found, better route and grade out
of Harrington than they can secure
out of Bluestem, from which point
survey was made last spring.
The concensus of opinion seems
to be that cutoff is to be built this
spring or summer, from Harrington
to a point on the main line about or
below Wilson Creek, to avoid the
yearly troubles and Inconvenience
caused by the high water from La
mona to Wilson Creek The altitude
at Bluestem is 1920 feet and at Har-
rington it is 1853, making differ
ence in Harrington's favor of 157
feet, which is considerable in the
short distance of nine or ten miles.

NOTES

Seattle, March Rev. W. A. Ma
jor, a we'll known Seattle minister,
who moses about" more or less in
local politics, came out in an inter-
view this past week favoring Con-
gresham Humphrey for United States
senator to succeed Mr.. Piles. He Of
fered long argument as to why
King county should support Humph-
rey and sidetrack the other candi-
dates. His principal contention was
that Humphrey has been in Washing
ton so long, and sands so well that
the people of the state can we'll afford
to send him back as senator to work
with Senator Jones, who was elevated
from the meek and lowly position of
Congressman.
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1910-03-02

Rev. Major took occasion to say
in his interview that he was speak
ing without authority in urging Con-
gresham Humphrey for senator; he
was in no sense authorized to sepak
for the Congressman. There is no
doubt, however, that the interview
was inspired and given publicity for
the purpose of ascertaining if posi-
BILE how the people would take to
Mr.. Humphrey for senator. The
Congressman has the bee a buzzing
in his head and would like to succeed
Mr.. Piles He has been in communi-
cation with his Seattle friends on the
subject. If the Major interview
strikes a popular chord, Humphrey
will surely announce himself If he
sees a chance to win.
1t has Deen reported here that Sen
ator Jones is willing to support Hum
phrey for the position and If neces-
sary to stump the state for him.
With Humphrey out of the way,
Jones, it is said, favors Senator John
L. Wilson.

With Humphrey out of the way,
Jones, it is said, favors Senator John
L. Wilson.
Just accept it as true that Governor
NJ E. Hay and State Land Commits
sioner E. w. Ross are putting in their
spare moments looking after politi-
cal fences. Hay wants to succeed
himself and Ross wants to fill the
job. Each believes that he will win,
but no stone is being left unturned
to bring about the desired result.
Gov Hay is making it point to show
up at every public function where his
presence has been requested and
when the formal part of the program
Is out of the way, he mingles with
the leaders. Land Commissioner Ross
never misses an opportunity to come
to Seattle or to go to Spokane or Ia
coma or other sections OF the state
where there is chance to make votes
for himself.
i Students at the state university
are campaigning to raise among
themselves and the alumna $500
with which to send the Washington
oarsmen east to race Wisconsin on
Lake Mendoza, June 4. In one week
they have raised $500, and they be-
lieve that by devoting the first week
in March and the first in April to
energetic money-getting they will
have ample funds to provide the crew
! with all that Is needed for the trip.
Rowing enthusiasts assert that by this
means they are keeping intercollegi-
ate boating alive on the Pacific Coast
for Stanford and California, Wash
ington's old rivals, have dropped
rowing as a university sport. The
4 rowing men believe that If they make
a good showing at Wisconsin this
year, they can go down to the east

keepsie in 1911, or bring the Badger

There are undoubtedly two sides
| to the great question of conservation
which is now agitating the American
people. To date there is no question
that the Pinchot policies have been
] the popular ones, but there is grow
! ing feeling that when the people OF
! the Northwest get all the facts before
them they will not be so enthusiast
tic about conservation. Here Is one
| line or argument advanced against
the Pinchot policy; the east has prac-
| tically speaking no more timber.
Where the timber one stood great
manufacturing industries have risen
giving employment to hundreds OF
thousands Of men and women. The
eastern timber is gone. but in its
place has come great commercial de-
velopment. The east has prospered
under the change. but now It says to
the west: "Our timber is gone; We
want the Western timber to stand:
true, you cannot build up great COM
mercial centers and create homes for
settlers unless you do cut down your
timber. However, you can walt. 1t
took the east long time to develop;
why should the west be in such 81

most profitable, that the pig should

The Different Kinds Of Ticks.

Those who doubt the feasibility or
practicability OF eradicating cattle
ticks are simply not informed Of what
has already been done, and do not
know the life history and habits of
the cattle tick.
The stumbling block for most un-
informed people is their knowledge
that ticks get on dogs, rabbits,
squirrels, cattle, horses, mules, and
almost all other animals, including
man. The point of real force, how
ever, is that the fever tick, which is
the only species that ever becomes
very numerous on live stock, only
gets on cattle, horses and mules. This
species, the only one that does great
damage. does not get on rabbits,
sheep. hogs, dogs, or any other ami
mails but cattle. horses and mules.

TT NEVER PAYS to aim to breed
anything but the best. Mules
l. weighing 1900 pounds will sell
from $50 to SIS higher than those
of the same quality that only weigh
1000 pounds. Hence, aim at the
f,200-pound mule. Even when the
heavy mules are aimed at there will
be enough of the 1.000-pound and
cheaper sort produced to satisfy the
demand of those who pretend to
prefer the lighter animals.

The Farmers Voice tells the story

poor ones: bought another bull

LEARN TO DO THINGS WE'LL.
The Habit of Doing Work Badly Will
Last You Lifetime.

You and | are simply bundles of
habits Every time we do anything
IL becomes easier to do it in the fu-
ture, until by and by the doing of it
becomes unconscious, automatic-it
does itself. 1t is, therefore, of the
utmost Importance that we form cor
rect habits in doing, in thinking, in
living. If we learn to do a thing
badly and form the habit, we will in
all probability do it badly all our
days. If we form the habit Of doing
things in the wrong way, or if we
form the habit of doing evil things,
we will in time become careless men
or bad men; for badness and good
ness are, to a certain extent, at
least, matters Of habit.
When your Uncle Henry was boy
he was very anxious to get through
with a good deal of work. For in
stance, he was anxious to be the
fastest corn husker and the fastest
grain binder in the neighborhood.
Unfortunately, he formed the habit
of binding sheaves loosely and failed
to acquire the habit of getting all the
silk and husks off the corn. The
mice had picnic in the corn that
he husked. A loose sheaf, when
hauled in, in harvest, or pitched out
at threshing time, was instantly rec
ognized as one of "Henry's sheaves."
tried hard to correct this habit in
after years, but never succeeded. l
could bind tight enough as long as
kept thinking about it, but the mo-
ment I began thinking about some
thing else, and that was about all
the time, the sheaf bound itself
loose
You will avoid a great deal of
trouble in after life if you will &C
quire the habit Of doing we'll what
ever you do. 1t Is no more trouble
to acquire the habit of doing it right
than wrong, and when habit is once
formed, it stays formed. I'll, longer
you practice it, the more firmly the
habit becomes fixed. 1t is as easy to
curry the horse we'll, when you get
in the habit of it, as it is to give
him lick and promise" 1t is
as easy to milk the COW clean, and
with neatness and dispatch, as it is
to milk her otherwise. The habit,
once formed. of doing things right,
will stay with you as perpetual
heritage and blessing. The habit of
doing things right can be formed by
the conscious and conscientious right
doing of them in the first place, and
every subsequent repetition of the
act fixes and confirms the habit un-
til it becomes the permanent, though
unconscious, habit Of life. The man
who learns to do the work on the
farm right, will be very likely to dc
all his work right, for the reason
that it becomes his second nature
