The Washington Times which, dur

boosting the new party, is strongly OF
the opinion that Senator La Toilette

to be based on one particular griev-
iance more than any other. The La
Toilette following did not vote with
the Roosevelt forces in the preimin-
laries at Chicago. and that act, or fail

cific fault from which it is argned
that in all other respects, namely, in

man has slipped from his pedestal

If the Roosevelt following generally
shall indorse this view, and as it is
bound to be supported by the stand
patters. and the reactionaries, 1t would
appear that Battling Bob is indeed
in danger of elimination, if mere fac
tional opinion may eliminate any man.
But 1t takes more than factional SEN

to do that in the case of man like
La Toilette. @A

career he has been AnSularly a fight

himself one of those rare men who
are not afraid to engage single handed
against any odds, however great, once

his cause. The indominatable courage
coupled with industry and ability have
been factorssof his winning. They have
given La Follettef and the people of
Wisconsin more for his labors than
has BEEN achieved by any man. or by
any group Of men IN any other state.
The same attributes have served in
the United States Senate. They nave
led to the organized concentration of
progressive effort in that body, and to
much else which IL working in the
senate along regenerative lines.
Senator La Toilette Is young man.

has quarreled with Colonel Roosevelt.

MARKET PRICE AND FRUIT
PACK

The cherry crops In the Valleys. OF
the Yakima is the first of the fruit
to go to market and the question OF
price has been largely determined by
the quality Of the pack. The report
from eastern market centers has in
variably been connected with the
question of how the fruit was packed
when it reached the distributing
centers, and the price has always fol-
lowed the condition of the pack.
This lesson taught by the market
ing of the cherry crop ought to sink
deer into the minds of the growers
and shippers and due precaution be
taken in preparing the peaches and
apples for market. The marketing
problem is one of the big questions
before the grower for solution and
he is at the mercy of the market If
his product reaches the distributing
centers in anything less than first
class shape.
Stories have gone out from the
packing houses in the Yakima val
leys OF how great sums of money
practically inexperienced girls were
able to make in packing cherries. The
reverse side of the story is told in
the low price received for the pro-
duct on the eastern markets. The
pack was imperfectly made and the
fruit sold on the market at a reduced
figure. The growers in the Yakima
valley must study to please the east
ern markets and put more time in
pack. A good point is made in the
suggestion that the cherry growers
here send to the eastern dealers for
a sample of pack that is consider
ed up to the standard that they will
pass and that will please the market
or send packer to the market to
get concrete idea of just what is
wanted In the packing of the cherry.
The quality of the Yakima fruit,
the color and size, in packages that
were considered eft" were comment
ed upon and the top price went to
such fruit What was true of the
cherries will also be true for the
peaches, nears and apples offered TO
the eastern markets and If the grow
ers profit by the experience in mar
keting the oherrp crop they will get
of light on the season.
1t should be remembered that there
Is record breaking crop all over
the fruit belt and that the market
price is not going to be good except
for quality product If Yakima
valley is to hold it's own and establish
a reputation for producing the best
it must during this season hold up
the idea that the best is
not going to be any too good.

TOBACCO IN THE SCHOOLS


An analysis Of the report of the
superintendent. W. d. Sterling. of the
city schools relative to the causes thai
led to failure on the part of certain
students to make their grade work
for the year. gives an important place
to tobacco. 1t is shown that the to-
bacco habit was found throughout the
schools from the second grade up TO
the high school and that the failure
of pupils to make their grade work
ana their deficiency in department can
be traced to the evil influence of the
tobacco habit.
Of the tobacco users in the grades
an Increased inefficiency was traced
from the lower to the higher grades.
While fifteen per cent of the tobacco
ussrs were poor on their studies in the
Hover grades, the percentage increas-

in the eighth grade So per cent of the

PIONEER DAYS IS
SPlAWM'S SUBJECT
Tells kittitas People Early Facts
About Indians and Whites
Of Yakima

Before a representative catherine
of kittitas valley pioneers Mayor Jack
lSplawn, of North Yakima, says the
lEllensburg Record, yesterday told of
the early days in the valley. Practi-
Ically all of the living pioneers were
on hand to greet their old time CON-
rade and many "reminiscences were
exchanged between the veterans as
they stood on the court house steps
listening to the Yakima band.
Mayor Splawn said In part:
will give you some early history
Of this valley. 1t is rich in Indian
lore and tradition.
History OF Yakima
The tribe that once inhabited this
gem OF the mountains was the Fish
wan map PANS (Stony Ground PEG.
|ple). They were numerous, powerful
and warlike land took by conquest
all the country from below here as
far as Tisco (Tall Grassy, a few miles
below the present Alfalfa. 1 have
traced them back for a period of
about 200 years. The chief at that
time was We-ow-Wicht, who lived TO
extreme old age. His youngest son,
We-ow-W WIGHT second, he named as his
successor, who also lived to very old
age and from this source came the
royal head Of the Yakimas Of today.
Valley Divided
When the last We-ow-Wicht died
he divided up his vast domain be-
tween his six sons, giving Owhi all
that country around the lakes at the
sources of the Yakima river down to
t. anyway.
From Teanaway down to the pres
ent Ellensburg he gave to Te-i-as. All
the valley below Ellensburg and east
of Wilson creek, including Atsha, the
country around the old Bull home
stead ,as well as Che-loh- an, at the
northeast corner of this valley, to
Te-wi-not.
The country around Ta-hat-to (the
present Rosa station as well as the
Wenas' valley to Winako; the Nah
cheez river to It's source he gave to
|Shacld-skin; the eKwiay-cfas (Cow
iche), Teton and Ahtanum country
he gave to Show-uow-wah, and to
ShoWaway all the country from Toh-
qui-ule 1.-Two Heads) the present
Uhion' Gap, at the mouth of the All
tanunl, down To 'Tisco (Tall Grass,
at the mouth ofsToppenish creek, thus
dNidlng his empire and absolute au-
thoritya as each son was Chief of his
own domain.
Indians Were Fighters
Owhl became noted in the Yakima
war of 1855, and Pualchon. his son.
WIS the most noted fighter of that
war. He and. few of his followers,
at the mouth of wenas creek killed
five white men, the first killed in the
Yakima valley, and this was the real
beginning of that war.
Owhl was killed while a prisoner
by Colonel Wright's command, near
the mouse of the Toulouse. Qaui-
chone was hung at Spokane by Col
onel Wright's command.

The backbone of the revolution
has been broken down in Mexico and
the United States has now to look
out that the fragments are not al
lowed to spill over the border and
disturb the peace and quiet Of the

States cannot harbor refugees nor
can it be made the rallying ground
for guerrilla bands who will seek to
make forays across the border after

cussing the evil effects of the tobacco
habit upon the children in the public

interest to the community. The me-
