DR.. VAN DYKE HAD
NO ENDORSEMENT
Appointment as Envoy to Hague
Shows How Little Wilson
Regards Them.
Star bureau.
Metropolitan National Bank Bldg,
WASHINGTON. June 10.

WASHANGIONs june AVs
In offering the post Of minister to
the Netherlands to the Rev. DR..
Henry Van Dyke, professor of Eng
fish literature at Princeton Univer-
sity, President Wilson has again
shown how little Importance he at
taches to political Endorsements for
office when he chooses to do so. There
are several hundred candidates for
ministerial and consular posts OF
various kinds, all of whom are in
dorsed by senators, congressman and
other big and little Democratic po-
tentates.
DIR. Van Dykes selection was not
urged by any politician. 1t is not
liked by many politicians. because 1t
gives to a clergyman and university
professor a post that might have
gone to some stanch, lifelong Demo-
cratic worker or contributor.
1t is understood that DR.. Van Dyke
has accepted the appointment, that
the Netherlands government has pro-
nounced him as acceptable, and that
the Princeton man viii go to The
Hague in the near future.
The announced stating of p. A. Sto-
vail, of Georgia, for the ministership
to Switzerland, is understood to put
out of the running the Rev. DR.. Otis
Glazebrook, of Elizabeth, N. j., who
was urged for that post by New
Jersey members of Congress and a
number of prominent Southern sena-
tors and others.
Colonel Thomas II. Birch, of Bur
lington. who has been offered appoint
ment as minister to Persia, has not
yet decided whether or not he wants
to go so far away from home. The
Persian post carries salary of $4,000
q year.
II know Persia is an interesting
country" said Colonel Birch. TITS
civilization dates far back, and its
literature and art were contempora-
neous with that of ancient Greece.
The only reason an American could
have for hesitating to live in Teheran
Is that 1t is SO far from Broadway"

agricultural and commercial life
of the state of Washington are
afforded by a comparative study
of the returns made by the 80
county assessors to the state
board of equalization.
The marked increase in the
number of automobiles reported,
more than so per cent. is an
nounced, also the fact that a
large proportion of the new cars
are reported from agricultural
counties. In comparison with
this the production of horses ap-
pears to be virtually at a stand
still. There were 258, 023 listed
this year as against 254, 1874 a
year ago. and practically all of
this increase came in work horses.
Horses used for driving and as
saddle animals actually showed
a decrease, thus tending to prove
that the automobile is rapidly
supplanting the horse for pleas
ure purposes, but not for actual
work.
This is pointed out even more
clearly by two other items in the
returns. The total number of
drays, wagons and trucks shows
an increase from 65, 2l8 in 1912,
to 66, 265 this year, but on the
other hand the lighter vehicles,
such as carriages, buggies and
cabs. show a falling off from 4O,-
7O8 in 1912. to 39,073 this year.
Washington is becoming more
of state for stock and dairy
cattle. Stock cattle showed an
increase from 122, 922 to 1885, 978.
more than 20 per cent in year,
while the number of yearlings
showed an even more significant
increase, from 51,3 1913 to 67, $40,
or a 30 per cent gain. Mich cows
increased from 14l 573 to 149, 140.
The raising of hogs also is an
industry that is gaining by leaps
and bounds. Last year there
were 1O8,5 ,593 porkers listed, this
year there are 1872, ,696, showing
an increase of better than 20 per
cent. Mules also show a good
gain, principally from the farm
ing communities, 13, 1863 being
listed as against IL, 121 in 1912, a
Is per cent increase.
On the other hand, the sheep
industry is falling off slightly,
though not enough to show that
the free wool proposal will be of
serious inconvenience. There
are 407,577 sheep listed this year
as against 3O9, 1856 year ago.
Whitman county has more work
horses than any other county in
the state.
Yakima county has more stock
cattle than any other, 1905, of
which 5, 459 are yearlings.
King county has the most milch
cows, 1912, and Snohomish
county, with 1854, is second.

Among the trials which infest
the attempted activities of the
average business man are the
periodical appearances of the in
surance agent. He cometh not
always as a flower of perfume,
but with a breath sometimes which
reeks of local option, and with
books of statistics which prove
! that undertaking is the only
rational business.
He brings indubitable proof
that if Caesar had lived till now,
he would have been dead long
ago, and his wife and twelve
children might have lived
through eternity without support
if he had not carried a policy in
the Red Goat Fireproof Associa-
tion, organized under the prolific
laws of New Jersey, and guaran-
teed to care for the frowzel-
topped children of the deceased

must be collected through the

Of his convincing arguments to
the wavering spouse, and life and
accident insurance are coming to
be as heartily accepted by the
public as is fire insurance, the
value of which is no longer ques-
toned.
Startling is the array of facts
which are compiled regarding ac-
cidents and deaths.
Every minute twenty-0ne per-
sons are accidentally injured.
Every five minutes one person
is accidentally killed.
Over II, 900, 600 are killed or in
jured yearly about 30, 900 each
day.
Five times as many persons are
killed or injured each year as die
from natural causes.
More die and are disabled from
pin pricks and other slight injur-
les than die from pneumonia.
More people are killed or in
jured yearly than have been
killed or injured in any war of
the last two hundred years.
More people are kept from
work by accidental injury than
are idle from lack of employment.
One death in every twelve is
due to accidental causes.
A person is twice as liable to
die from accident as from old
age.
