The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-08-01

The Ranch has received from the
citizens of Keller a statement of the
situation regarding the fight to open
the south half of the Colville Indian
reservation. A little circular has
been sent out prepared by j. r.
Sovereign which should be in the
hands of people who believe that this
reservation should be thrown open to
settlement to white settlers. This
reservation contains more than
million acres and the Indian popula-
ton is only 24O0 souls In order to
appropriate this to the Indians, an
allotting crew has been at work for
years at cost of $50 per day. Ac-
cording to the figures it is costing
5000 claim to make the allotment.
This sum must all be paid out OF the
proceeds of sale of the lands. 1t was
proposed ID years ago to allot to the
Indians claim each, sell the balance
to white settlers, giving the money to
the Indians. How much will be left
after the allotting crews work few
more years? Nothing could be more
absurd and the fact that this has gone
so long is caused by the maudlin SEN
timent kept alive by well meaning but
mistaken people that the Indian is
being robbed. He certainly is being
robbed by this plan. We know from
first hand knowledge something OF the
way these things are managed. Ten
years ago a man was appointed to
allot the Quinault lands along the
Pacific ocean. He is still at it. We
sincerely hope the people of North
eastern Washington will be able to
win their fight in having these lands
open for sale to actual settlers.

Seldom has there been such wonder
full crops as are now being harvested
in the Pacific Northwest states. And
never has there been more ideal har-
vesting weather than during the last
"a days of July. An unusual amount
of June rain was followed by the
finest kind of growing weather. Har-
vesting is now in full swing and re-
suits are splendid. The hay harvest
is now over and except what was cut
early and was spoiled by the rains
has been saved in fine condition.
Wheat harvest in Eastern Washington
and Oregon has been going on for two
weeks and the crop is above the aver
age. The first carloads reached the
shippers at Tacoma, Seattle and
Portland about ten days ago and was
of the best quality. The only failure
was the strawberry crop in some
localities. Western Washington is
now shipping the cane berry crop.
And it is the biggest crop ever har-
vested. The association at Puyallup
which handles the crop of the Puyallup
and White River valley, is sending

eSsary ways.

The immensely of the berry bust
ness being done this year by the
Puyallup & Sumner Fruit Growers
Association is evidenced by the daily
shipment OF from Is to 20 car loads of
fresh berries. These cars average
about $40 crates, and bring about
$3.50 a car. Fully three-fourths
of this great crop will be produced in
a valley seven miles long and two
miles wide. This is a greater pro-
duction than many whole counties in
the wheat growing sections OF the
middle west produce, and this crop is
sold at a splendid profit.

Under orders by Gov. Lister, the
state highway commission will rush
work on all state highways, so that the
department will be able to get the
roads in shape at the earliest possible
time. The last legislature appropriated
81, 600, 600 for this purpose, and of this
amount about $500, 900 is this year
available. Governor Lister wants
start made at once. He has already
made trip over the routes of the
proposed new highways in Western
Washington, and will, within a short
time, visit the remaining portions of
the state. Another stimulus to imme-
date road building in the state is the
decision of the state supreme court
that the $3,000,0 900 road bond issue,
authorized by the voters of King
county, is legal. This means that
work of the construction of a compre-
hensive system of highways in that
county will proceed at once. The
county commissioners have their
plans ready and were waiting for the
court decision before taking final
action. Elk.

On another page we are publishing
figures of the wheat production of the
states of Washington, Oregon and
Idaho. These give the three states
70, 500, 600 bushels the largest crop but
one on record. Washington is cred
tied with 43, $50, 900 bushels, Oregon
with 10, $50, 900 bushels and idaho
with II, 500, 900 bushels. This is big
increase in Washington and Idaho
and decrease in Oregon. While we
think the figures are 100 high, an
enormous crop is being harvested.

CAKE OF SOAP NEARLY
TRAPS BARBER SHOP THIEF
Crash as Burglar Falls Awak-
ems Man Next Door.

A cake of soap almost caught a
burglar today. 1t was not the "al-
legged perfnmed variety that would
have chloroformed the intruder, but
just an ordinary f1ve-eent bar of dirt
chaser.
The new power of soap was shown
when Sergeant Kull and Detective
Bell were looking for Clues to the
burglar who looted the barber shop
of James Lordi, at 81 Hermon street,
early this morning. They found the
shop stripped of everything except
two heavy chairs and a mirror and
the cake of soap.
man living next to the barber
shop was awakened by loud crash
at o'clock this morning. Looking
out of the window he saw a man get
ting up off the sidewalk and then
running away, large bag under his
arm. He shouted, but the fellow
kept on going.
An examination of the shop showed
a long streak of crushed soap near
the doorstep. This, 1t is deduced,
accounted for the big crash and the
burglars precipitation to the side
walk. The neighbor discovered when
the owner of the shop arrived that
the cleanup man had taken his shaw
ing cup. Hair cutting machines,
shears, razors, combs, brushes, hair
tonic, witeh-hazel, bay rum, shaving
cups and other things were in the
loot.

BERLIN, Feb. 10.-Deciaring that
the Prussians were Oppressed and
dismembered folk in 1906 as a CON
sequence of Gods judgment because
they had lost faith IN Him, the Ger
man Emperor at a memorial service
at Berlin University delivered char
acteristic address warning the pres
ent generations of Germans not to
forget the faith of their fathers.
The Emperor emphasized his words
by pounding his right fist on the desk
repeatedly. He was often interrupted
by applause. He asserted that the
Germans of today were inclined to
believe only in tangible things and
TO place difficulties IN religions way.
They should study history, he said,
and see how the Prussians regained
their old faith and fought the war of
liberation, whose glorious result was
not mans work, but Gods work.

have in the history of the past GER
tain proof of Gods guidance, and
that He was and still is with us. And
with this teaching of the past the

fire the tried shield of faith, which
