UNREST IN ENGLAND.
Duke of Marlborough Blames
Dearth Of Cottages for Evil.
Absence Of Homes for Hunblest
Glasses Of Rural Workers 10 De.
populatine the country-"Week
Enders" 10 Chief Cause.

London.--When the duke Of Mari,
borough. IN his recent articles In the
Daily Mail on Industrial Unrest In
England" traced the source Of the
trouble back to the dearth OF cottages
for country laborers. 1t seemed rather
fanciful, but since his articles were
printed. no small amount of evidence
has appeared to back up his theory.
One of the most interesting contri.
buttons to the discussion comes from
"A Country Parson." who says that the
dearth Of homes for the humblest
classes or rural workers is a crying
evil According to him, 1t is depopu.
lating the country.
Marriages among the young people
are at discount. he says. Twenty
years ago. In his parish. the registers
show there was q yearly average Of
six marriages Of agricultural laborers.
During the last eight years this aver
age has been reduced to one. Assur.
edly this statement backs up the duke
Of Marlborough.
The young men In the country have
no inducements to marry there and no
homes to settle down in. They flock
to the cities. they crowd out the city
born OF weaker physique. they lower
the standard Of wages by Cutting the
labor market. Then come poverty,
strike. paralysis of business, general
all-'round disaster.
But why should there be a dearth
Of rural cottages. Why does not the
law Of supply and demand operate to
end II in short order? One reason
seems to be that all sorts OF outsid
ers are competing with the agricultur
al Iaborer in the way Of a cottage that
may exist or be built in rural regions
Behind this is the fundamental
cause. the fact that the agricultural
laborer is SO badly paid or paid ir
such an impractical way that he is MOI
able to pay anything like q decent
rent for q home-anything like thu
rent which will return even thu
smallest interest on the builders In

laborer for the rural cottage. th'

10 PROTECT THE ...
 GAME IN ALASKA
Association of Audubon Societies Has $5, 900 for tho
 Work

The National Association of Audubon Societies have ann0unc- cd that arrangements had been completed for starting an eXlcn- slvc campaign to preserve the birds, game, and fur-bcaring ani- mals of Alaska. The sum of s5,- O0G already mas been subscribed for this purpose, and more funds will be available as needed.
 The importance of this move ment becomes apparent when it is remembered that for years to come many of the inhabitants of the territory must depend upon game birds and animals almost entirely for their meat supply. The flocking of the settlers to Northwest Canada during the last few years has made important changes in the conditions of Wa ter bird life in America. The draining of innumerable sloughs and grassy lakes is driving the breeding ducks and geese furth- CT north, and Alaska ultimately will be their chief summer home on this continent.
 "We shall begin by inaugural ing bird study in all the schools, with the use of free literature and colored pictures of birds," said T. Gilbert Pearson, who, as secretary of the National Association of Au- dubon Societies, has charge of the arrangements. "We have the hearty cooperation of the Unit cd States Bureau of Education in the school work We shall under take. We also will employ guards to protect many of the important bird colonies and to prosecute il- legal killers of game"
 An agent of the association will sail from Seattle in a few days to investigate and report on cer- tain existing conditions, and act i've work in other directions will begin at once.-Exchange.

 Senator Raynor of Maryland had complete platform for tariff reform and strong trust blanks down to recommendation against the presi- dent serving more than one term A plank may be inserted calling for @ constitutional amendment making a president ineligible for reelection
 Minority Platform a Possibility.
 Two platforms are in process of preparation Bryan and other pro. gressives have control of an impress i've majority, but a minority platform is possible. Tammanys platform has been ripped and broken to pieces. Most of the blanks have been reject ed, it is said. Four or five other plat forms met a similar fate
 From behind the locked doors of the subcommittee room details of the progressives victory in drafting blanks were given out.
