Turns Down Bachelors

A woman who has had ample oppor-
tunity to observe, both in society and
out, gives it as her opinion that bach
elors-at least those beyond the age OF
35-are uncomfortable. She finds that
they have lost their manners and are i'll
at ease in the society OF women. And
yet she finds that they assume every
brilliant woman who does not utterly
snub them to be trying to marry them.
1t is her verdict that having adopted
the habit OF pandering to their own
wishes, the selfish instinct becomes
stronger the older they grow. She says
they are intolerant OF anything that
gives them the least trouble, and that
the real, vital things of life pass them
by.
While this is for the most part true,
it is a matter for deep congratulation
that not all the people in the world are
men, and that all those who are unfor-
tunate enough to be are not bachelors
or past IS.

Increased Attendance at University

The University of Washington has
opened its doors for another school
year, and the registration OF $500 pu-
pills has proven the rapid growth of the
state and the increase of its peoples
interest in higher education. There is
a large registration from every county
in the state, and every department at
the big institution has its full quota of
students. The wisdom of the state
legislature in providing that the big
buildings of the A. Y. P. exposition be
OF permanent construction and revert
to the university, is being shown every
day. The fine set of buildings, which
at the time of their construction SEEM
ed ample to care for the needs Of the
university for many years 10 come, are
now all in use, and without them the
institution would be crowded beyond
the point Of usefulness. AS it is, Wash
ington can boast state university with
finer buildings and more beautiful
campus than any state of its size in the
union, and very few institutions Of
learning anywhere in the nation have
finer surroundings. The temporary
buildings on the exposition grounds
have been cleared away, and this with
out disturbing the beautiful lawns and
gardens any more than was necessary.
The wide stretches of greensward, with
the many evergreens, the gardens, the
asphalt walks OF the big fair, and the
handsome permanent buildings OF the
university, form picture worth going
some ways to see, even with the at
fractions of the exposition removed.
The opening of the university was
marked by the usual college pranks Of
the freshmen and sophomores. A
crowd OF the second-year students dec
Grated the cluster light poles along
Third avenue with large numbers Of
freshmen, bound hand and foot and
tied to the poles, in imitation Of the
martyrs with whom Nero illuminated
the Appian Way. On the evening fol-
lowing this little attention paid to the
newcomers by the sophomores, the
freshmen caught a couple of hundred
''sophs' on the campus, tied them up,
and danced war dances around them.

NEWS OF PACIFIC NORTHWEST

The Northwest Fruit Exchange, with
headquarters in Portland, promises TO
reorganize the fruit business of the
northwestern states and place the pro-
ducts of the orchards in new and con
stantly widening markets. Although
the exchange has been on working
basis only three weeks, it has directed
the shipment Of 200 cars of fruit. and
shipments the past week have averaged
II carloads day.
Features of the California orange
growers organizations will be adopted.
By modern methods of advertising and
craftsmanship, it is expected TO make
Northwest fruits known and used all
over the world. w. F. Gwin is gen
eral manager, with Offices in the
Spalding building, and it is his
plan to introduce Northwest fruit into
every state in the Union, when atten-
ton will be turned TO foreign countries
and every inducement made for the
wider use of fruit from this section.
Oregon, Washington and Idaho are
embraced in the association, which
works in connection with the growers
throughout the various fruit districts.

Washington to Have -four Congressman

Washington to Have -Four congressman
The state of Washington will have
four congressman instead of three, al
ter the elections two years from now,
If the states census proves as great as
every one expects. Congress will re-
distribute the representation OF each
state in the lower house as soon as the
census returns are known, and we will
learn then whether this state gets the
additional congressman which it ex-
poets. Ten years ago the distribution
OF congressman was made on the basis
of one to each 10000 population.
Washington was allowed three repre-
sentatives. This year the population
OF the state is expected to exceed one
million. There are hall million peo-
pie in the three largest cities alone.
The distribution will be based on an
increased population all over the ma
ton, but it ought not to be greater
than one congressman to each $780,
900 people, in which case Washington
will get four representatives.
The state Legislature will also have
to plan a redistricting Of this state for
Legislative offices. The state constitu-
ton limits the number OF state repre-
sentatives to go, and as there are now
81, only two more districts can be Gre
ated. The limit for the state senate is
40, and there are now 40 districts.
King county Legislators will make
fight to have the state redistricted on
strictly population basis.

Was the Delay fatal?

President Taft has most graciously
assured those insurgent leaders in con-
gress, whom he at one time seemed
to regard as his enemies, that so far as
he is concerned all past differences
have been forgotten. The announce
ment comes in the form of a reassur-
ance that the share OF federal patronage
withheld from those senators and rep
resentatives supposed at one time to
be opposing the policies of the pres
ident has been restored.
The explanation for this precipitate
action on the part OF the chief execu-
tive is found in his reference to the re-
suit Of the recent primary elections
particularly in Iowa and Wisconsin.
The Endorsement OF such recognized
insurgent leaders as Cummins, Dolliver,
Bristow, Clapp and La Toilette is taken
by the president TO mean that these
men, despite the accusations lodged
against them by Speaker Cannon and
other standpatters in the house and
senate, have all along been represent
ing their several constituencies. These
insurgents, while subjected to the
scorn and abuse of the followers of the
Cannon-Aldrich leadership, insisted
upon the good faith and honesty Of
their cause. They pointed to the plat
form of the party adopted in 1908, and
when the crucial test came and Presi
dent Taft's pet measures were threat
ened with slaughter at the hands of the
these men from the west
stood in the breach and enforced the
enactment OF those policies into laws.
But still the president hesitated.
Why, nobody outside his own immed-
late political household can ever guess,
unless it was that he sought, by putting
these men to the final test in their
home states, to convince himself and
his ill-advised followers that the pro-
gressive element in the party was back
ed by the people. OF course the mere
surrender by the president Of these
patronage prizes so long withheld is
but an incident. The broader sig
nifcance lies in the determination 10
weld together the dismembered forces
of the party and in the apparent pur-
pose OF President Taft to enlist the
strength OF the progressives in en-
forcing those measures of public policy
for which he, as standard bearer, is
sponsor.
The results of the elections recently
held seem to have been torclbly I'M
pressed at the summer capital. The
bursting OF the republican machine in
Maine was a significant omen of even
greater possible disaster to the party.
But it probably did not signify, to the
trained ear of the chief, the same con-
ditions as that made apparent by the
vote in Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas and
the state Of Washington. In those
states the issue was between the sup
posed policies of the administration
and those men who stand for the full
flment OF the party's pledges. The
verdict was one whose significance the
president could not overlook. But
there are heard predictions that he
halted too long.-Woman's National
Daily.

Until the 23d of the month. Octo-

will be easier to make out who the true

October

October is from the Latin Octo,
meaning eight, and it was formerly the
eighth month of the year. This
brought the football season around at a
time when there was grave danger OF
being sufocated before the ball was
even put into play, and there was a
great deal OF dissatisfaction at the old
Greek and Roman universities. A
change was frequently talked Of, but
it remained for Numa Pompilius, who
was one of the early friends Of educa-
ton, to do anything about it. In 713
B. c. he moved October along to its
present place in the calendar, and now
the quarterback on a football team al
ways says before swapping the ball,
Numa, Numa,
B. c.
Come seven,

After which the rooters, who reached
very high state Of proficiency in the
latter days of Numa, recite:
