and seemingly without hope, has been
lifted to a high plane of production
and prosperity.
As pointed out In the statement Of
the president and nine trustees of the
North Pacific Fruit Distributors, "ex-
perience and observation convince all
intelligent persons that under the
present conditions no great business
or industry can succeed and prosper
without organization and such inteli-
gent management and direction as will
result in the largest volume Of busi
ness attainable at Il minimum of ex,
pense.'
There is a great work ahead for a
great organization and that work Is
too large for any district to attempt
alone.

A LITTLE HEROINE.

st, Joseph, Mo-, May 15.-Although
put tour years old, Mary Whitten,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Whitten Of this city, saved herself
from death here today by lying flat
on the railroad ties when she saw
freight train approaching so rapidly
that she was unable to jump from the
track before being struck The en-
glhe and ~ cars passed over her. She
received only scalp wound.

| Mr. Underwood and the member OF his
committee in charge of the particular
schedule affected, they have consented
either to assist in the adoption OF g
proper amendment in the senate or al
least not to oppose such action by the
senate. In other words, they have
put it up to the senate to rectify mis-
takes even in cases where they knew
the error before. the bill passed out OF
their hands.
Some Are Unhappy.
This makes some of the senators
very unhappy. And naturally. For
the senators feel that it puts them In
very awkward predicmment. They
j. will be obliged to sponsor amendments
increasing rates of duty while Mr..
Underwood will be entitled to great
credit for cutting rates. From their
point of view, this gives Mr.. Under-
wood a clear record with which to SO
to the country for re-election but II
puts them badly in the hole, as they
fear.
They would not have minded it 50
much in the days before the direct
election of senators, but they point out
now that they are obliged to go be-
fore the. people and make a public
canvass just the same as Mr.. UNDER
wood and his colleagues must do.
Several Of these senators face the
test of reelection next year, just as
the house democrats do, and they do
not think it is fair to them to be
obliged to carry the burden of cor
recting errors in the bill which were
known before it left the house and
which the house leaders should have
corrected on their own responsibility.
The talk about the senate now is
that some 200 minor changes will be
made before the bill Is passed. None
will be. Of any widespread Importance
except possibly the REIMBURSEMENT of
the pottery schedule which is under
taken at the direct Intervention of
President Wilson.
The republicans are preparing to
cry calamity and are charging that
the bill will surely bring industrial
disaster and destruction, with newt
able labor disturbances and general
business depression. Mr.. Underwood
uttered an extremely significant warn
ing to these calamity howlers in his
last speech on the bill in the house.
He had already pointed out, on several
occasions, the fact that the democrats
had created a bureau in the depart
ment of commerce authorized to make
very thorough and complete invests
cations of industrial conditions.
A Threat.
He now makes a deliberate threat of
the use of this bureau against any
manufacturer or other concern that
might attempt to discredit his tariff

Spokane, May 15.-~Some confusion
seems to linger in the public mind
respecting the name, scope and pur-
pose of the North Pacific Fruit Dis
tributers. Even among growers there
is not always Il clear understanding
of this organization, formed in re-
sponse to a long existing conviction
that a great cooperative marketing
agency is needed to save the orch lrd
industry from losses like those suf
fered this year, and possibly from ul
innate decentralization when the cX
tensive acreage now planted TO young
orchards shall cnme into bearing.
It Is closely estimated that not more
than 80 to 35 per cent Of the apple
orchards of the four northwestern
states are now IN bearing. Naturally
the question rises in the mind of every
grower: What are the prospects for
profitable markets Wler the remain-
ing 65 per cent throw their tonnage

WASN'T ON THE BILL
Queer Accident to an Actress at the
Grand That Produced Plenty Of
So. &c.. Good Applause.

A bit of comedy that wasn't in the
programme Or in the play was on
Thursday evening during the produc-
ton of In Old New Hampshire, and it
probably provoked more laughter than
anything that has taken place in the
Grand during the season, Miss Madge
Carson had the character Of a widow,
and her opposite was Joe Golden, as
an Anticipated Widower, of many vint-
ages ago. He had been making violent
love to her and at last was apparently
getting successful, when the accident
took place.
That afternoon Miss Carson had
been to the dentists and had a brand
new tooth placed on a pivot and just
as Mr.. Golden was about to get down
on Bonded knees, to ask the fair but
ancient damsel9 to marry him, she
started to spurn his love in a coy
sort of a way, but with some violence,
the pivot tooth flew out and in an
undertone she said: Good Lord, Joe,
I've lost my tooth"
Mr.. Golden turned his head to hide
his grins a s well as to subdue his
laughter which wasn't in the plot at
that time, and then the audience
caught on. to what had happened, and
there were several merry roars all
over the house, but after a short wait
the show proceeded. Miss Carson went
to ~theSdentist's again yesterday and he
has guaranteed that nothing Of the
kind will happen again.
