OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
c. L. MACARTHUR

ALUMINIUM, IL. ". June IL
The following editorial which recent
ly appeared in the Washington Post
suggests how the tariff controversy is
creating new political alignments:
ear more important than the an
nouncement that William A. White
Progressive national committeeman
of Kansas, is preparing to ally him.
self with the Democrats is the re-
suit of the recent mayoralty election
in Wilmington, Del, in Kansas,
Whites Endorsement of president
Wilson's tariff policies is only an
evidence that there can be but two
great political parties in the United
States; that three cornered fight is
but temporary, and that consolida-
tion of forces is inevitable.
"Progressives and Republicans rea-
lie that divided opposition to the
Democratic party is surrender to
that party Mr.. White, apparently,
believes that the issue must be be-
tween the Democrats and Republican
parties, with the Progressive organ
ization tapering into nothing His
Endorsement of Mr.. Wilson and the
Democratic tariff attitude must be
highly gratifying to the administra-
ton.
what, however, is to be said Of
the result of the bitterly fought
mayoralty election in Wilmington?
The Progressives nominated their
strongest candidate, while the Demo-
Gratis did likewise. The republicans
renominated Mayor Howell, who won
by the substantial plurality of 1,245
over the Democrat, who ran second.
1. is conceded that nearly all the Pro-
gressive votes came from the Demo-
cratic party Disgruntled Democrats
turned to the Progressive party,
leaving the Republicans with solid
force of votes, who won the victory.
1.-THE Democrats for a long time
have been smiling at the division in
the Republican ranks, and have been
looking upon the third party as an
aid to Democratic victories. 1t can
not be disputed that the Progressive
party made possible the victory Of the
Democrats last year.
but who can say that realign-
ment will not take place, with Re-
publicans returning to their own par
ty as result of the tariff issue, and
the Progressive party drawing its
strength from the Democratic party?
1t is possible that Democrats, many
of whom feel that their party has
gone too far in tariff revision, may
not wish to Ego the whole hog" and
join the Republican party, but might
they not find refuge at the new half
way house known as the Progressive
party?
THE tariff issue is bound to be
paramount in the next campaign, and
it may force new alignment with
results similar to those noted in Will
mington. Eventually, however, there
will be but two parties, as Mr.. White
seems to realize at this early date.
The Progressives have the Democrats
10 fear and the Democrats fear the
Progressives. The question is, which
will swallow the other?"

more expense than in ordinary can
ming.
Scientific research has recently
shown that the development germ of
life that infests and destroys fruit
will be destroyed in a temperature
lower than that in which the fruit
tissues begin to cook. AS an illustra-
ton peaches which are perfectly ripe
can be heated to 1873 degrees and the
development life destroyed. Then
the fruit can be sealed and laid
laid away for 48 hours until the eggs
in the fruit is again subjected to 1873
degrees of heat, and the development
of life is destroyed. This is done a
third time, when all the life has
been destroyed the fruit is complete
ly sterilized and syrup being add
ed it can be kept for many years.
The fruits when opened taste exactly
as they did when taken from the
trees, sliced and placed on the table
such as peaches except that they are
better as the syrup in which they
have been held has been mixed with
them and they are favored with each
other.

Christmas SUGGESTIONS.

1t isn't bit too early to get right
down to the serious part of ones Christ
mas shopping. ~
The crusade for early shopping has,
in most cases, been observed even by
the most well-meaning and best-in-
tentioned of US simply in spasmodic fits
and starts.
Now the great day is approaching
fast and there is no time to lose. The
plan to shop early is really one that Is
for the cooperative good of all con-
cerned. The shopper who is shopping
now will find much better and fresher
assortment of things to buy than will
her sister who puts off the garnering of
gifts until the week before the feast.
LIST WILL PROVE MIGHTY HELPFUL.
And the first aid to the forehanded
Christmas shopper is the Christmas
list. There is something homely and
rather understanding in the list, but,
as matter of fact, it is joy to its
possessor in the last hours of the pre-
Christmas rush. and there is always
rush enough without the shopping.
To be able to glance over the list
containing the name and the gifts
chosen for them, of all whom enc
wishes to remember, and to feel sure
that not one is forgotten saves the
busy woman much needless worry and
wrinkhng of brows.

STATE ROADS COMMITS
SION WINS SUIT HERE
Judge Henderson UphOIds Decision of
the Lower Court Against Frostburg
Water Company.

Before Judge R. R. Henderson Mon
day, the case of the Maryland State
Roads Commission against four en-
ployes of the Frostburg Water Company
came up on appeal, the lower court
having fined the four defendants s25
each for tearing up the State road with
out permit at point west of Frost
burg just beyond the county line to lay
water pipes. The water company had
appealed to the circuit court against
this decision.
Judge Henderson sustained the lower
court and imposed the original fine of
S25 on each defendant-SlO0 IN all, with
costs.
This case. established a precedent
and is considered most important by the
State Roads Commission. 1t practically
carries with it the higher court s decision
that the state roads cannot be torn I'D
without permit and that the commits
sion has right to superintend the lay
ing of pipes on its roads in every case.
For the appellants. Attorney Watson,
of Frostburg, contended that the State
couldn't show title to the roads, but
Judge Henderson decided that this had
no bearing on the case.
The case was pushed on behalf of the
State Roads Commission by Mr.. Andrew
Rams ~, member. Mr.. L. T. Downey
resident engineer for the commission.
Other witnesses who appeared for the
commission were J. A. Lammert, state
roads patrol, and George Townsend.

NEW STORY OF FOUNDING
OF CITY OF SAN FRANCISCO

Berkeley. Cal, April 5--The yellow
musty pages of an cd Spanish eccles-
iastical document in the possession of
the University of California have
yielded to researchers a new story of
the founding of San Francisco. which
places the date-Nfarch 81, 1776-be-
fore the birth of the nation.
The document is contained in the
Robert MCGOWAN collection presented
to the Academy Of Pacific Coast His
tory by the late Coils P. Huntington.
L has just been deciphered by Prof
Frederick c. Teggart.
The narrative deals with the journey
from Sonora, Mexico. of Padre Pedro
Font, first apostle to the Indians Of
San Francisco peninsula. His party
founded a mission at Yuma, Ariz., then
crossed the Imperial valley of Cali
fornia to San Diego ana moved up the
coast to San Francisco. There, ION the
extremity of the white cliff at the in
ner point of the entrance to the har-
Dor" the cross was planted and set

far behind men in the fed of fine arts.
An exhibition with sucn a purpose is
unique in Europe, and while 1t is not
an effort to further the cause OF women
in the generally accepted sense, it is
one of the first evidences in Italy that
Italian women are responding to the
feminist movement that finds its ex-
preston in America and England in
the demand for the ballot.
The exhibition, to give it its full
title. the Woman's International Exhi-
bition of Fine Arts, will be held in the
beautiful Valentino park, we'll known
through the international exhibition of
two years ago, which also had its site
there. It is expected chat the contri-
buttons will number over one thou
sand, of which about half will come
from different parts of Italy, but almost
every country in the world will be rep
resented AS is inevitable some have
limited artistic value, while others are
wonderfully good, showing in some
cases veritable genius. But al are
interesting as showing the directions
in which women are working in art.
And there are contributions from al
classes of society. from royal ladies
to humble peasants.
