FORESTS ARE
BECOMING POPULAR

/ Before the years outing season is
over, nearly half million persons will
have sought recreation in the national
forests of the United States. Accord
ing to the record of the United States
department of agriculture, the total
last year was, in close figures, 4O6, IT'S.
With the finest mountain scenery and
much of the best fishing and big game
hunting in the United States, the ma
tional forests, made more and more
accessible each year through protec-
ton and development by the govern
ment, are fast becoming great national
Fairgrounds for the people.
The use Of the forests for recreation
IS as yet in its beginning, but is grow
ing steadily and rapidly, in some of the
forests at the rate of 100 per cent. per
annum. The day seems not far dis
tant when 100000 persons will annu-
ally visit them.
By principal states the national for
est visitors numbered $4,000 in Arizo-
ma, 100000 in California, 100000 in
Colorado, 10000 in Montana, 10000 in
New Mexico, $4,000 in Oregon, 1000
in Idaho, 10000 in Utah and $4,000 in
Washington.
Of the natural wonders and land
marks of interest in the national for
ests several have been set apart as ma
tional monuments, among them Cinder
Cone, a great lava basin in California;
the ella cliff dwellings, extensive re-
mains of a prehistoric race in New
Mexico; the unsurpassed Grand can
yon of the Colorado, in Arizona; Jewel
cave, South Dakota; Lassen peak, the
terminus of long line of extinct vol
canoes in the Cascades; the Pinnacles.
a collection Of remarkable jagged
peaks in California; and the Tonic, a
group Of prehistoric ruins in the Tonic
forest in Arizona.
The big trees, Glacier park, the pet
rified forest, the Oregon caves and nu-
merous other phenomena serve to at
tract other hosts of visitors.
A record of 9,21S miles of trail cut,
1926 miles of road laid out, and 1851
miles of telephone line strung tells
what the government has done in the
way of pushing the conveniences of
civilization into the primeval forest.

She was looking directly at a man
who had not yet seen her, says the
New York Press. He was well worth

more material than artistic. The girls
steady eyes compelled the mans gaze.

insistence. smiling the while. He was
almost up within touch of her as he
returned her greeting with seeming
protest at doing so. A sudden pressing
together Of the crowd brought them
close to each other, and she purred
up to him.

GARMENT WORKERS
STRIKE OFF
AFTER NINE MONTHS IDLENEss
STRIKERS WIN SIGNAL
VICTORY.
Seventy Thousand Will Return to
Work Under improved Condition.
In the Readjustment the sweatshop
Is Abolished "PreferentiaI Union
Shop"


ers' strike, one of the greatest indus
trial disturbances in the history Of
American labor, was settled tonight.
Seventy thousand garment makers
who have been idle for nine months,
will return to work. Ten thousand,
and those dependent upon them-50,-
900 souls in all-were on the point of
eviction, and hundreds had already
been forced onto the streets. The in
dustrial loss to employers and en-
ployes has run high into the millions.
In loss of wages alone, the total has
been estimated at more than $4,000
900, while the loss to manufacturers,
jobbers and retailers the country over
have been computed at ten times that
amount.
Peaceable Strike.
In spite of the stupendous readjust-
ment involved, the strike has been in
the main notable for peaceableness.
Julius Henry Cohen, counsel for the
Manufacturers Association, describes
the agreement signed by him and rep
resentatives of the strikers in this
sentence:
mo principle has been surrendered
by the manufacturers, yet the union
may truly claim they have won great
victory for their people. The manufac-
turers believe in the union and in the
principle that all who desire it's bene-
fits should share in it's burdens"
One essential of this victory and one
important not only to the strikers, but
to the nation at large, is the abolition
of all contract work at home. Here
after garments made in New York will
be manufactured under sanitary con-
ditions. There will be no more sweat
shops.
Rock Avoided.
The rock on which all previous ef-
forts at mutual Cancellation have split
has been the closed shop. That rock
has now been avoided by the adoption
of the preferential union shop" idea,
for which Richard D. Brandeis, of Bos-
ton, formerly counsel for CLAWS in the
Pinchot-B allinger hearing, is given full
credit.
In the articles of agreement the idea
is thus described: Each member of
the manufacturers is to maintain I'M
ion shops, union shops being under
stood to refer to shop where union
standards as to working conditions,
hours of labor and rates of wages pre-
vail, and where in hiring help union
men are preferred, it being under
stood that since there are differences
of degree of skill, employers shall have
the freedom of selection as between
one union man and another, and shall
not be confined to any list nor bound
to follow any prescribed order"
Other Agreements.
Other articles provide for these
more important points:
1, electric power free; 2, no work. at
home; 8, discipline of any manufac-
turer proved guilty Of discrimination
among his employees; 4. six days work
week and cash weekly payday; 5,
all subcontracting within shops abol-
ished; 6, nine hours work day, five
days a week, and five hours the sixth
day; 7, the price of piece work to be
agreed upon by committee Of EN-.
ployes and their employers; 8, double
pay for overtime.

~ or federal Capitalization of
.ror by declaring that the only safe
,orsp TO pursue was to hold fast to
=. limitations of the constitution and
= rogard as sacred the power of the
states.
Mr. Taft, amid applause, made ref
nance to the efforts of Theodore
pooseyelt in the cause of conserva-
inn but he declared the time for
aapsodies and glittering generalities
had passed. He suggested to the con-
rss that it should invite it's speak
.; to come down to details, to spe-
fife evils and to specific remedies.
Hearers Respond.
These sentiments by the president
seemed to receive the approval of
1sarly all his hearers. They came
near the end of a long detailed and
Ehaustive discussion of conservation,
and he ended his speech with the au-
GenCe on its feet.
Mr.. Taft did not attempt to solve
he problem of water power site con-
n, as between the states and the
Eleral government, but after stating
he Arguments advanced on both sides
the subject, he said he would SUBJ
nit the whole matter to the federal
NlgresS for determination.
At the fair grounds the president
delivered a Labor day address, the
most notable utterance of which was
aSatement that he knew of no iAten-
ton on the part of the government to
prosecute labor leaders under the
antitrust law. At the same time the
PRESIDENT said he did not believe labor
CARNATIONS should be exempted
from such prosecution by specific
statute. He declared that such a pro-
vision of law would smack of class
legislation.
He did not believe labor unions de.
sired or needed class legislation, and
aid ne counted on their help in pre-
renting such legislation.
St. Paul Welcomes.
The president received a demonstra-
lTe but not an uproarious welcome at
IT. Paul. The streets were lined from

MIR. TAFT WAKING UP.

Mr.. Taft is not as slumberous as
his enemies and some OF his friends
would have us believe. He has been
patient almost to the edge of endur-
ance, but what he said to certain
senatorial leaders yesterday indicates
that he is waking up and shaking
loose for action. "Why don't you
push measures to redeem party pledg-
es while the house is dealing with
appropriation bills? You are NOV
ing too slowly"
This is the sort of talk that will
put Mr.. Taft back into the hearts CT
the people where he was on the day
of his inauguration.
The dilly-dallying of the past few
weeks or months has not been due to
the pugnacious attitude of the insur-
gents-and even if it were, the coun-
try would be the gamer. But SIM

"THIS is MY 5OTH BIRTHDAY"
PhiIiD Heineken.

Philip Heineken, who recently be-
came the active managing head Of
the North German Lloyd Steamship
company, was born in Bremen, March
/, 1868. Leaving school at the age
of sixteen, he spent the next three
years as an apprentice with whole
sale firm, where he received a thor
ough commercial training. For the
succeeding six years he was in the
employ of large cotton firm in Liv-
erpool. Upon success browning the
efforts of the German cotton spinners
to establish cotton market at Bre-
men, Mr.. Heineken returned to that
city and in partnership with John
vogelsang established cotton import
and export house which in time be-
came we'll known all over the world.
In 1892 he became a member of the
board of directors of the North Ger
man Lloyd, and upon the death of
his partner, Mr.. Vogelsang, in 1915,
he determined to quit the cotton bus
mess and accepted the offer made
him to become one of the managing
directors of the steamship company.
Last fall he was chosen to succeed
DR.. Heinrich Wiegand as the active
head of the company.

BECOME A MEMBER.

Those who have witnessed the
growth of Wenatchee and its tribu-
tary territory know that the CONNER
cial club has been a strong factor in
stimulating this growth. The bust
ness men Of the city have contribut-
ed literally, not only to erect a COM
modious club building but they have
assisted every move to give the We
natchee valley wide publicity. 1t is
by reason of this publicity that men
with capital have had their attention
directed to this part of the state as
a place in which to make profitable
investments.
Since the benefits in which the en-
tire community has shared have be-
come so apparent, move is now on
foot to strengthen the commercial Or
ganization by adding new names to
the membership roll. This move has
for its object the bringing about of
closer cooperation between the bust
ness men and the ranchers of the val
ley. There is every reason why the
ranchers should be as much interest
ed in maintaining a strong CONNER
cial organization as the business men.
And the ranchers are beginning to
see this and many who heretofore
have not been members of this or
ganization are sending in their ap-
plications.
In the matter of commercial activ-
ity there should be no such thing as
artificial boundaries known as city
limits recognized. The growth of the
city of Wenatchee means added val
ues to the property of the whole To-
eality and conversely the develop
ment of the surrounding country
means a greater Wenatchee. In the
future there will be new problems
affecting the fruit industry, such as
transportation, the opening up of new
markets, competition with other To-
calities, and a strong commercial or
ganization is a fit body to consider
such questions.
Every encouragement should be
given the management of the COM
mercial organization in their efforts
to make it one of the strongest In
the state and to put it on a sound
financial basis so that it will not be
crippled in its efforts to advance the
prosperity of the community.

that had to be met sQuarely, was not
enough to excuse the complete cessa-
ton of business the country has been
obliged to look upon for all these
months. At no time have the insur-
gents been other than disposed to
work with the president, and at no
time have they been found other than
agreeable to the presidents program.
The standpatters in the house and
senate are responsible for the delay,
and now that the president has called
them to account in true Rooseveltian
fashion, something will be doing in
the weeks to come.-San Jose Mer-
