"THIS is MY 72ND BIRTHDAY
Edwin CHM.

Edwin CHM, the Boston publisher
who recently offered $4,000 a year
to help toward securing internation-
al peace and disarmament of nations
was born in Orlando, Maine, Febru-
airy IA, 1888, and was educated al
Tufts College A few years after
his graduation from college he start
ed upon his career as publisher OF
school books and in the course OF
time his publishing house became the
largest of its kind in the world. Mr.
CHM, besides being identified with
the movement for international peace
has done much to promote better
conditions between labor and CAPT
tai. He is also especially interested
in the problem of housing the work
ing classes and has built many blocks
of model tenenents for Boston's poor

STRAW VOTE SIGNIFICANT.

The straw ballot taken by the
Chicago Tribune is significant. This
poll was made of republican and
Independent editors throughout the
middle and far west to test the feel
ing with reference to the reelection
of Speaker Cannon and the satjsfac-
ton with which the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill has been received in those
sections. The poll shows the SEN
timent to be overwhelmingly against
Cannon, SIT favoring his reelection
to the speakership and 3,194 oppos-
ing it. The fact that 5S Illinois
editors were favorable to the pres
ent speaker while 232 opposed his
reelection shows that the Sage of
Danville" has lost his popularity in
his own state.
The vote of Washington editors
shows about the same proportion
opposed to Cannonism as in the var
ious states throughout the middle
west, the vote standing Fl in favor
of the speaker with 81 opposed and
if to this is added the vote of indie
pendent editors, the total is "a. The
attitude of republican editors doubt
less reflects quite accurately the
popular feeling with respect to the
methods by which legislation is en-
acted under the house rules as they
now stand, and it may be accepted
as a foregone conclusion that the
rules will be modified in the next
congress.

MAKING A NEWSPAPER,

Men who mako newspapers some.
times believe that their profession
is an exacting one. They are wrong
1t is the simplest calling. Making
a newspaper is an easy trick. Any
body can do it.
A lawyer with only diploma and
brass sign, who would lose a suit
even if the other side was ready to
confess judgment, will tell you how
to run newspaper. A physician
who would send his patient to the
morgue before the prescription has
been filled will know all the fine
points of making a newspaper. An
actor who never earned any other
plaudit than a soft tomato will give
instructions in handling the worlds
news. Any old lady who knows
enough to get off street car back
ward, has positive opinions on the
press. Even a society person who
never paid anything but a call or
made anything but visit or dill
anything but a tailor knows how
stupid those men are who write
Stories" edit copy" wrestle with
heads that won't fit and get the
paper out on time.
One reason for the universally of
perfection in this trade, among those
who do not work at it, is that every
body has been employed in it. 1t
is a most unusual thing to meet
ripe, will not say, 81 used to be a
newspaper man myself" Every time
man works his county editor for
a puff on the strength of a big
pumpkin he graduates in journal
ISM When he writes a 'piece" for
the Squash County Clarion about "a
most enjoyable entertainment, he
completes his postgraduate course
in newspaper work. and when he
writes a communication on both sides
of the paper to the editor he becomes
thirty-third degree member of the
Tribe of Scribe.
That so many men have abandon
ed literature for the law, medicine
and other easy walks of life, simply
shows that many men would rather
fail in one thing than another

POLECAT JOURNALISM.

The Leavenworth Echo of this
week INDUCES in long story Of
abuse on account of an unfortunate
piece of news which transpired in
that city last week and which crept
into the columns of the Daily World
the last moment before going to
press. If the Worlds story hurt the
people of Leavenworth, not only are
the editors sorry but the whole peo-
pie of Wenatchee are sincerely So
The Echo editor has poured it into
the people of Leavenworth so long
to the effect that the World inten-
tionally takes a crack at our sister
city at every opportunity that a
gooily number of people there actu-
ally believe it. News happens in
every city prejudical to the interests
of the people living there, and it is
wise plan for the publisher of a
newspaper to keep the publication of
such news to a minimum. If the
World has been unintentionally in
discreet in publishing more news
than it ought to, the Leavenworth
Echo has been doubly so in stirring
up such a fuss about it. It's bad
business. It's polecat journalism.

by erecting a building, more than
creditable to its efforts, from which
it may more conveniently carry on
its work of boosting for Wenatchee
and the valley. The Great Northern
railroad, recognizing the future Of
that community, has given it q
beautiful depot. which is fully COM
mensurate with the city's progress.
Wenatchee has big things in store for
itself and Seattle extends heartiest
congratulations.

1t is a pleasant Renaissance to

that elicits the greatest enthusiasm

WHOLE VALLEY WAS THERE
Wenatchee Crowded, and Spokane
Men Are Glad They Made
Trip. Says Monroe.
(Inland Herald.

Unland Herald.
Ibid we have a good time? Well,
guess we did"
This was the remark made by Mr..
G. Monroe on his return from We
natchee this morning about 9 O'Clock.
1.-THE whole affair was the most
successful, the best arranged and
best managed celebration of the kind
ever attended. We had to aban-
don the parade, as the streets were
too sloppy, but we were met by a
bunch of automobiles and from the
time we arrived until the time we
left it was one constant round of
pleasure. In the afternoon the dedi-
cation of the new Great Northern
depot took place. Judge Brown, OF
Seattle, presided on behalf of the
railway company and made a most
interesting speech. Judge Burke also
spoke.
"In the evening a capital program
was arranged for the dedication OF
the Commercial Club. At this en-
tertainment the Elks' quartet made
the biggest hit of the evening and
was encored again and again. Talks
were made by Governor Hay, Judge
Burke, J. D. Lowman, president OF
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce,
ex-Mayor C. H. Moore, R. H. Hughes,
and a few words from myself. w. T.
Clark, president of the Wenatchee
Canal company, made an excellent
presiding officer.
1.-The town of Wenatchee never
had such a crowd within her gates
Hotels were crowded to overlooking,
and many of the visitors had to be
taken care of in private houses.
Why, the whole valley was there. We
natchee has every reason to be proud,
not only of her chamber of commerce
but also the way in which the dedi-
cations were handled. You bet, We
natchee is all right and we are all
glad we went"

The Indiana law provides that con-
firmed criminals, imbeciles. idiots
and rapists and others decided as
proper subjects by experts shall be
unsexed. Already over 500 prison
ers have been treated to date.
AS an evidence of the criminal
type and the results upon posterity
the "Jukes" family is interesting:
From one man who founded the
luke" family came 1900 descend
ants, in Is years; and of this num-
Der 80 were professional paupers
who spent an aggregate of 1850
years in poor houses, so were women
of evil. Z murderers, 60 habitual
thieves, and $50 were common Grim
inals. The economic loss to the
state in this rs years by this family
is estimated at s1,2OO,0O0 or $1,000
for each member.
Another family, ''the tribe of Ish-
mall extending from a seventeenth
century convict ancestry, with 1892
members, has produced 121 known
women of evil and hundreds of petty
thieves, Migrants and murderers.
The subject is one for thinking
men and women and the state oil

place in the van.

FOR RACE IMPROVEMENT.

The state OF Washington has a
law on its statute books, passed by
the last legislature, which, If carried
out, will tend to eliminate some of
the criminal strains throughout the
country. In order to improve the
race several states have taken an ad-
vanced step along this line. Besides
Washington, there are also Indiana,
Connecticut and Michigan which have
passed laws having for their object
the elimination OF the criminal type.

The Spokanites were the "gib
noise" at the celebration and their
gay "Enakops' uniforms made a
great hit with the Wenatchee peo-
pie. The Elks' quartet, which was
on hand, proved great attraction.
Speeches were delivered by Secre-
tary Monroe, r. III. Hughes, C. III.
Moore and H. l.. Moody. all of which
were well received. w. T. Clark, a
prominent Wenatchee man, presided
at the dedicatory services.
In his speech Mr. Hughes pointed
out what the apple show was doing
for this entire Inland Empire coun-
try. He pointed to the fact that $685.

Wenatchee's Big Day.

Seattle acknowledgement
& An epoch-marking vent in the life
of the city of Wenatchee took place
Friday, when its new Commercial
Club building and fine depot, just
completed, were dedicated. Invita-
tions sent out to the various COM
mercial bodies of the state met with
ready response and many Seattle
business men attended the dedica-
ton ceremonies.
Wenatchee, both because of her
strategical position in North Central
Washington and because of the pres
tige of her big red apple, is des-
tined to become a great factor in the
business of this state, and it is fit
ting that her larger sister cities
should do her homage.
Seattle is particularly interested in
the prosperity of Wenatchee, for this
thriving little city is one of the best
customers local business men have
on the other side of the Cascades.
Likewise, a great portion of Wenat-
chee's products are brought here for
distribution and for sale. Every
thing possible should be done to make
the relations between the two cities
even more cordial than they have
been in the past.
Wenatchee's commercial club is
one of the most militant of the
states organizations for publicity. Its
enthusiasm for the progress of the
city has already brought results
which can be measured in big dollar
terms. 1t now takes a step further

bilcs or carriages. even in the street
ears when they are forced to ride IL
those popular vehicles. there is usual
ly to be seen a fluffy little animal
which is somehow regarded as reg

emotional actress. says she has NJ
time for 'pcnwipcr purps, and the
dainty little creatures are never Il
be seen in her arms or lap. She doe
love dogs. however. but they must
be big strong ones. On her summer

number of St. Bcrnards, great Danes
and bull terriers. These formidable

Walsh's calibre. Her dramatic strength

more plays and local playgoers are
soon to have opportunity to witness

Other Woman is the name of her
new play. and her role therein is pro-
nounced by critics in cities where the
drama has been given as the best of
her remarkable career. Last season

"Thc Girl In The Taxi"

The greatest event of the present
theatrical season will be the forth
coming appearance in this city of that
far-famed and scnsationally successful
play The Girl in the Taxi which is
booked for an engagement at the
Grand Jan. II.
"The Girl in the Taxi" may aptly
be referred to as the big scream"
OF the year. for wherever it has been
presented it has caused audiences to
laugh almost to the point of hyster-
les. Dancing. singing and musical
specialties form pleasantly diverting
features of "The Girl in the Taxi" and
the company OF players engaged to
present this laugh-producing enter
taiument is composel entirely of COM
edians of the first rank. The fun is
said to start with the rise of the first
curtain and the pace seh is n fast one.
Situations and complications occur
which are so scrcamingly funny that
the audience has little opportunity
for breathing spells.

one summer afternoon. d little German
~ girl sat On the terrace Of Karl Bitter

was alone and the Emperor had evidently
not come to Capri.
And UP on the terrace at Anacapri the
little German girl laid her head on one Of

two men in knickerbockers and queer green

leads 10 Anacapri from the landing by the
