EXCELLENT PROGRESS

WASHINGTON. September ~. =
Excellent progress was made in the
month of August by the canal diggers
ON the isthmus. The total amount OF
excavation was 2.si3.462 cubic yards,
pdace measurements. against 2,4OG2SS
yards In the preceding month. The
increase Is accounted for by the fact
that there were two more working
days In August than In July. with

Wenatchee Interested.

The past week has witnessed the
arrival of a coterie of real estate
men from Wenatchee who have dur
ing the past few months, been en-
listing an extensive clientage in the
Wenatchee country. The assurances
given by these good people that
there will be an influx of land buy
ers in the valley this year, not only
from the Wenatchee country, but
from various eastern points, is at
least refreshing. News items pub
lished in this issue tends very
strongly to corroborate this state
ment of the real estate men not on
ly, but is conclusive evidence that
many of the men who have bought
land heretofore are here on the
ground, and with crews of men and
implements are busily engaged in
setting out large orchards of ap-
proved varieties. 1t is noted with
satisfaction that the valley is get

ing we'll established regulations of
being winners in the prize apple
shows, and with others, securing
numerous and valuable trophies for
their excellency in fruit production.
These new people are entering the
field here with enthusiasm, confident
that they have picked a winner. and
we'll satisfied with the prospective
future.
It bids great things for the Met

full place as a leading producer OF
the finer qualities of apples, and a

VIEWPOINTS OF THE PRESS
Women and Civics.

No fact in connection with the an
nual meeting of the Massachusetts,
Federation of Women's Clubs has
been more significant than the uni
form testimony from all the New
England states as to the share that
women now have in conserving for
est preservation, in diminishing in
due hours of labor for women and
children, in fighting for pure food
laws, in protecting natural beauties
from DETACHMENT by advertisers, and
in inducing educators and taxpay-
ers to stand for progressive policies
in education. The social, literary
and more sentimental aspects of wo-
mems club life still go on, and
should; but they no longer monop-
Ollie the attention. Woman, whether
she votes or not, is getting ready for
a larger part in civic life, and there
are certain phases of it, having to
do with health, protection of child
life, fighting evils that assail virtue,
and increasing love of the beautiful

THAT IMAGINARY LINE.

There is considerable moonshine
in this talk that senators should be
chosen with reference to their geo.
graphical place of residence. Sena-
tors are supposed to represent the
state as unity and not a geogra-
phical section. Wherever there is
an imaginary line drawn for politi-
cal purposes dividing state into
an east and west or north and
south section, the line is always
drawn by the politicians and not by
the people of the state. Under the
direct primary it is the people and
not the politicians who are going to
nominate the senator this fall and
the factor which is going to deter
mine their choice is not from what
section of the state the candidate
comes, but where he stands on the
vital issues which are engrossing
the minds of the American people.
The people will be more interest
ed to know whether their candidate
will vote SO times with Aldrich on
a tariff bill, ten times against him
and refrain from voting 80 times,
than to question whether he halls
from Toadyville on the Sound or
Standpatville on the Squillchuck.
They will want to know whether he
is in favor of permitting the footing
of the public domain by monopolis-
tic interests Or whether he stands
with President Taft in favor of the
Roosevelt policies of conserving the
nations resources in the interests
of the American people. They will
want to know whether the man for
whom they vote will go into the
senate as a fearless champion of the
peoples rights or whether he will
have strings upon him which only
the initiated few know how to pull
in order to induce dignified repose
or an animated action.

| Why should the professional man be a
 member of the Chamber of Commerce?' | This was the question asked the hus- | ting campaign committee of the Cham | Der of Commerce which yesterday at | tackled the Brown Marx building. It was answered so quickly, and with
 so much ginger, that within three min
 utes the questioner had signed an appli- cation blank and had become full | fiedged booster for Birmingham, all that she is and all that she ought to be. 'The professional man should become a member of the Chamber of Commerce because he lives in Birmingham. Don't you live here? Don't the price of meat and flour affect you? Come on, let's pull togetherv' said Chairman T. c. Cairns. 'The Chamber of Commerce represents the concentrated enthusiasm of patriotic Birmingham citizens, seeking to make life worth living for every man, woman and child within its limits seeking to build up the mercantile, manufacturing and every other interest, to increase the payrolls, to double the population, and to lend a hand wherever the public good is concerned.
 "The more people in Birmingham. there will be just that much more sickness for the doctors, and that much more litiga- ton for the lawyer, and that much more money for both.
 Every great movement which is being pushed by the Chamber is, at bottom, a selfish one, and the benefits are to be garnered by the average man, no matter what his profession.
 But don't forget that the Chamber of Commerce needs you. These questions of so great moment deserve the best thought and the strongest arms to put them through. Much of the brains of the com munity and the ability to do things is found among the lawyers and the doc tors.
 And then, sir, it is your duty. You breathe the air. and walk the streets, and enjoy the benefits and"
 Say, let me sign that application card, and let's jump on that rascal in the next office,'' said the professional man. Don't waste any more logic on me. That fellow should have been a member of the Chamber of Commerce long ago. Come on, let's pull together!'
 The campaign yesterday developed into enormous proportions. and 1t is evident that the required 1000 members will be secured by June if the entire member ship keeps up its enthusiasm. and con- tinues to bring in applications.
 The committee spent three hours yes terday in the Brown-Marx building, and only finished from the fifth floor to the fifteenth.
 We did not see all the occupants, for many were out, and we hope that those missed will immediately telephone their applications" said MT. Cairns. we are also relying on the general membership to do It's part. Every member must get his duplicate this week, and the commit tees and chairman must bring from two to five.

 owned about $s0,ooo worth of life insur- ance. He was requested to make a list of policies, which he agreed to do. Wit. ness was further requested to give at torneys for the trustee list of his per- sonal property.
 Witness declined to do this unless re- quested by his personal counsel. Mir. Knight said Mrs. Knight owned an auto mobile valued at $12500 which was a daisy. He said he owned yacht which cost $OO. He said the banks held, at the time of the failure, all his stocks as collateral.
 MT. Knight testified that speculations in cotton caused the failure He did not morning that w. D. Nesbitt met him in Decatur. MT. Knight was not questioned as to the Thompson account for several thousand dollars, about which none of the firm knew anything except Mr. Knight. The witness was asked several other gem eral questions, when he was excused by MT. Benners.
 At the conclusion of MT. Knights evil dence the meeting adjourned to the first and third Saturdays in each month.
 The court was crowded at the last ses- sion and everyone bent forward eagerly in order to hear the evidence of Mr. Knight. As the questioning of MT. Ben- ners assumed such an impersonal and general course the disappointment of the spectators was easy to discern.
 The attorneys from New York will go to Corinth, Miss. to be present at the first meeting of creditors in the Steele. Miller failure case which followed closely the Knight-Yancey petition. The hearing will take place today.

COMMISSION IDEA
 HAS DRAWBACKS
cor. rOMLTNsON EXPLAINS DIFFER ENCE BETWEEN BUSINESS" AND GOVERNMENTAL. FEATURES OF MUNICIPAL ADMINISTRATIONS

"Reearding commission government for cities" said Col. John w. Tomlin- son. q recognized the necessity of the business of a city being attended to bv commissioners, but I am opposed to governmental functions being cen tralized in the hands of three or four men. The municipality is business corporation; at the same time It IS subdivision of government. If the two- fold character of a city Is kept In mind the problem can be worked out, or having the municipal business attend ed to by commissioners and the mu' nicipal government administered by councilmen, which, in my Judgment. IS the only safe solution.
 "I believe the voters of Greater Bif r. mingham are in favor of comm1s- sion," continued MT. Tomlinson. but l have always expressed my convictions whether with the majority or the mi nority. Among others I opposed the bill for a commission form of gov ernment for cities introduced in the last legislature. That bill was de- feated and those who advocated it in the legislature were defeated for re- election, running on that platform.
 There are different forms of com mission government--those that rec ognize the dual character of a munich pality-business and governmental those that do not Nothing is being said now as to what kind of com mission is proposed. Why not provide for a council. half to be elected by enlarged city wards and half from the city at large? Why not provide for a commission with the mayor as the head to have charge of all public bus mess?
 "One of the new members of the legislature, 1t is, true. advocated com mission government. but I do not re- call that he advocated the kind of commission government proposed in the last legislature."
