Some Random Thoughts.

July 26th at Shiloh, there will be a.
Clemson College Farmers Institute,
Profs. j. y. Harper, c. G. Newman
and c. l.. Goodrich will make it very
interesting for the farmers Of this
progressive section of Sumter county
ON the 22nd. next Friday at Tur.
beville, Profs. Barrow, Conradi, Eeitt
and Jackson will hold an institute.
The good people OF Pudding Swamp
will have two opportunities to hear
the latest in scientific farming.
knowing several of the speakers,
urge every one who can, To be at both
the Turbeville meeting on 22nd and
Shiloh on the Goth.
1t is a pity the good roads rally
will fall on the date of the. meeting
at Shiloh. for quite a number will be
disappointed in not being able to be
two places, twenty miles apart, on
the same day. at the same time.
The writer regrets that a previous
the Shiloh meeting. He tried to have
Prof. Barrow arrange for different
date, but dates can not be exactly
suitable for every one. This other
engagement may permit OF attending
the good roads rally.
This section is still in the clutches
of general green, but his ranks are
being fearfuly decimated these long
hot July days. No rain in this sec
ton from Saturday evening TO this
writing. Thursday morning. And corn
that was planted for big yields needs
moisture. However. most farmers do
not wish To see rain before Saturday
night. for they need every working
hour to clear the cotton of grass.
Next meeting of County Union
Will be with Concord Union, on Aug.
9TH, three weeks off. Each local union
will meet before the county meeting.
At the county meeting the question
will be asked: What is your local
doing 10 improve the conditions i'm
your neighborhood 2" Unless some
thing is being done to better your
own locality, you may expect very lit
tie help from the Union. for the big
schemes will utterly fail except n
the result OF local success. Il. w. -.

) TUNNELS UNDER
CHICAGO RIVER
Street Cars Will Soon Travel
Beneath Stream Between
Retail District.

Chicago, Aug. 12.-Three large
tunnels under the Chicago river will
soon be completed and ready for use
for street cars, and another great
step toward an ideal transportation
system will have been taken. Two
of these connect the retail district
with the west side, and the other
joins the north side and the retail
district.
The east and west tunnels are at
Washington and Van Buren, streets
and the north and south tunnel is at
La Sale street. They arc expected
to eliminate the vexing car delays at
the river during the rush hours, to
avoid the delays resulting from the
open bridges, and also to be instru-
mental in the installation of the
most important through routes
planned for in the traction settle
ment ordinances. The three tunnels
represent an expenditure of about
$2,5OO,OOO.

CASHMERE DRINKS
ARRESTED
Three Men in Swartz' Tailor
Shop Found This
Morning.

Deputy Sheriff McManus of Cash
mere this morning at about $3.50
heard sounds within Swartz' tailor
shop which indicated that some
thing was going on inside rather I'M
usual. Forcing an entrance he dis
covered three men drunk and fight
ing. They had evidently been there
all night carousing. Many empty
bottles were scattered about the
floor and quantity of liquor still
untouched. This included 81 quarts
and pints of beer; also one quart
OF whiskey.
The men were lodged in the
Cashmere Jail while Sheriff Fergu-
son was notified. Deputy McManus
stated to the World over the phone
this morning that he had arrested
the men on suspicion and that he
does not know their names. One OF
them is an elderly man who loafs
around the Swartz tailor shop when
he is not employed, which is most of

DISTRICTS ELECT
COMMISSIONER
New Law This Year Affects
Nomination and Elec-
ton.

Under the old law the entire coun-
ty participated in the election of the
commissioners from the various dis
tricts. At the last session of the
legislature law was passed where
by each district participated in the
nomination and election of their own
candidates. In other wards, for in
stance, residents only in the first
district can participate at the Sep
TENDER primaries and also in the cleo
ton November Sth in the nomination
and election of candidates from the
first district The same law applies
in the second district, and this is
considered a great improvement in
the old law whereby the entire coun-
ty would participate in the selection
of candidates from the three dis
tricts.

1t is good omen that the pro-
gressive and standpat factions of the
republican party are taking a sensi-
BILE view of the recent contest which
was precipitated over the question
of Representation in the county con-
vention. Every reasonable republi-
can now admits that the voter should
be left free to express his individual
preference for United States senator
and that this expression of prefer
the perpetuation of factional feel
ing. Naturally progressive repub-
lican voters will cast their ballots
for progressive republican for the
legislature, while a stalwart will ia
vOr the election of a standpat candi-
date. This little contest that oc-
CURED here and similar contests in
other localities have been of value
in enforcing the lesson that the idea
of party solidarity can be over
worked and that it has been over
worked in this state The republi-
can party represents too much and
is constituted on too broad lines to
be prOstituted to factional ends. The
men who were in control of the Ia
coma convention have had this fact
enforced on their attention, too. The
days of narrow partisanship engen-
dered by the civil war over the ques-
ton of slavery have passed away and
voters are insisting that party action
be made with reference to political
and economic questions that concern
the generations of today.

PRESIDENT UNDER
GUARD
Shooting of Gaynor Arouses
Fears for Life of Chief
Executive.

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 12.-Since
the attack on Mayor Gaynor of New
York, secret service men have sur
rounded President Taft constantly.
Vigilance has been redoubled and
the president is not out of sight of
one or more of his guards at any
time
When the president motors, one
guard stands on the step of his car
and two others follow in another
automobile. They have orders to
shoot first, and ask questions later.
One operative always accompanies
the president on the golf links.
The renewed precautions of the
secret service men are in line with
the theory that the attack on Gay
nor may arouse the slumbering in
sanity of some crank and awake a
desire to duplicate the outrage. The
notoriety attending an attempted as
sassination is regarded as one of the
features appealing to the weak-mind-
ed and suggestion contained in re-
peated discussions of the crime is
added reason, the secret service men
consider, necessitating additional
care in guarding the president.

The Inland Empires internation-
al standing is illumined by Judge
Turner of Spokane and Premier
Laurier of Canada.
The judge is literally making his
tory at The Hague arbitration of the
Newfoundland fisheries dispute; and
when the premier visits Nelson, B.
c., on August 20, he will help to
make history in developing the Pa
cific Northwest.
AS Mr.. Turner helps to remove
ancient difficulties between Britain
and America, so Sir Wilfrid will play
noble part in bringing about team
work between British Columbia, the
Inland Empire and the Pacific coast.
The glorious Columbia, $50 miles
of it Canadian and $50 American, is
a silver chain to link the sister lands
in fellowship. The Spokane, Port
land ana Nelson chambers of COM
merce have already clasped hands
over the task of rendering the great
river navigable to West Robson, B.
c. The readiness of Canada's great
premier to receive a deputation from
Portland regarding the proposed
deepening of the stream, with the
Nelson Endorsement of the scheme,
augurs well for international devel-
opment of the supreme river of the

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.
The sunrise of the nreSent cam

The surprise of the present cam
paign is in the withdrawal of Judge
J. H. Chase, of Cashmere, from the
contest for representative of this dis
trict. His friends in the Cashmere
precinct as well as in other sections
of the county were greatly surprised
at the decision of Judge Chase but
as a unit are glad that the with
drawal was in favor of T. H. Atkin-
son, of Entiat.
Judge Chase is one of the pioneers
of Chelan county, and always has
been considered one of the war
horses of the republican party, being
a delegate to most of the state con-
ventions for the past 20 years and
being prominent in the councils of
that party.
Judge Chase would have been a
formidable opponent for Mr.. Holm or
any other standpat republican. There
is general satisfaction, however,
that there is to be but one insurgent
candidate for the legislature and that
the mantle of Judge Chase has fallen
on such worthy shoulders as Mr.. At
kinSOn.

congressional action.
ELLENsBURG is INTERESTED.

Interest in the proposed highway
between Wenatchee and Ellensburg
is being manifested in the latter COM
munity. A recent issue of the Ell
lensburg Record contains the follow
ing comment on this topic. 1t says:
"The people of Wenatchee are full
ly aware of the benefits that state
roadway over the mountains be-
tween Chelan and Kittitas counties
would bring to their city and a COM
mittee of the commercial club has
induced the Chelan county commits
sioners to appropriate $1,000 for a
survey of the highway which was
recently located by the state COM
missioner.
The new road will pass through
Ellensburg and be part of the sys-
TEN VI TOduS between S0dCIlG ana
Spokane. 1t will afford the only
outlet to the north to the people of
central Washington. Heavy auto
mobile and wagon traffic will pass
over it to the benefit of men of all
lines of business in Ellensburg.
If the county commissioners vote
funds for the survey of the Kittitas
end of the road facts about the high
way and estimates of cost can be
Systematically prepared and the leg
islators of the counties interested
can secure from the state next win
ter a liberal appropriation for the
highway when the state road funds
are apportiOned.

AN OPEN COLUMBIA.

The announcement that Premier
Sir Wilfrid Laurier will meet a depu-
.ation of business men representing
the Portland Chamber of Commerce
the latter part of this month at Mel
son, British Columbia, to confer on
an open Columbia from Canada to
the sea is evidence that the move
to make the Columbia navigable
throughout it's entire course is a fact
and not theory. This movement is
given encouragement by Spokane,
am with the combined efforts of Port
land and Spokane and the co-opera-
ton of commercial bodies in smaller
municipalities along its course, it
promises to gain momentum rapidly.
The fruit growers along the Col
umbia are coming to realize more
and more that an open Columbia
with cheaper rates and a widened
marketwill eventually be the great
est boon to the fruit industry
An open Columbia naturally will
not be given encouragement by rail-
road interests. and the ranchers and
business interests may count on GER
tain opposition and attempts to de-
lay this movement. This opposition
will not be open, but will manifest
itself in causing delay of govern
mental action by influencing men
holding high position in our legis-
lative councils. To the end that
quick and favorable action may be
taken in opening up this great ma
tural highway to commerce, it is
necessary to have men in congress
who can be depended on to champion
the peoples cause. A man who is
in close touch with railroad inter-
ests will naturally serve the rail-
roads and not the people in this i'm
portant movement
There may be questions of gov
ernmental policy upon which men
may differ, but certainly party lines
and party interests will not stand in
the way of united effort for an open
Columbia. Our senators and repre-
sentatives in congress should have
their attention repeatedly called to

II will be practicable for the Chica-
go Railways company to proceed
with the laying of rails"
The La Sale street tunnel is be-
ing constructed by H. H. McGovern
e company, and is not so far ad-
vanced because it was not started as
soon. A novel method, for Chicago,
IS being employed here The tunnel
itself is being built in the form of
twin concrete-lined steel tubes, which
will be dropped into place.
These tubes are being constructed
at factory on Goose island, more
than a mile up the river. When
completed the ends will be stopped
up and they will be floated down the
river. The bulkheads will be taken
out, the water will rush in and the
tubes will sink to the bottom, into
the cradle already preared for them
The ends will be connected with the
land tunnels, the water will be pump
ed out and the work will be finished
These tubes will be 27S feet long,
"A feet in vertical diameter and
Joined so as to give horizontal dia-
meter of Al feet. The steel part will
be finished in about three weeks and
it will require an additional three
weeks to put in the concrete lining.
The Van Vuren street tunnel has
been finished for some time, but has
not been put to use because of some
difficulty with the Metropolitan Ele-
waited company regarding the moving
o. some of the pillars of it's structure
which interfere with the passage of
the modern large street cars. This
tangle will be solved shortly. All of
these tunnels are to be used as part
of the subway system when the lat
ter is constructed
