Big Parade Handled
By Telephone
KNIGHTS TEMPLAR CONCLAVE
UNUSUAL

Denver, Colo, Aug. 10. Especial
to the Oakley Herald.) With
over 10000 men in line General
Ohm Chase and his committee Of
assistants will form and direct
the gigantic knight Templar
parade here almost entirely by
telephone. A special central
switchboard has been installed
at conclave headquarters and by
means of branch telephones at
short intervals along the line of
march the committee will be
kept III direct touch with the
movements and progress of the
vast army OF marching Knights.
Besides the host of Sir Knights
who are in attendance It the
conclave there are over 100000
visitors III the city, and unusual
and careful plans have been pre-
pared tor their care and comfort.
Special plans have been arranged
by the telephone company in an
ticipation of the great increase in
the number of telephone calls
during the conclave, For
months past that company has
been busy installing emergency
telephones, additional switch
board facilities and training the
$50 extra opera tors who will be
required to assist the regular
force in handling the calls. Over
$50 emergency telephones have
been connected with the news
papers and hotels and informant
ion bureaus, and at various
places along the streets tele-
phones connected with the cen
tral exchange have been provid-
ed for the convenience of the
visitors.
Discussing the telephone pre-
parat1ons for the conclave vlsi-
tors, an official of The Mountain
States Telephone Company said
TODAY: Emergencies such as
this require that we provide fac
ilities far beyond our usual daily
need. The present convention
with its vast influx OF visitors
aud consequent increase OF
telephone calls is only a repetit-
ion of other conventions we have
handled. and will have to handle
in the future. Our plant in vest
ment has always been, and must
always be. sufficient to take care
ut not only the usual daily bus
mess. but the maximum number
of calls that come to our switch
boards. This is true not only of
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1913-08-15

Denver and other large centers
but of each one OF our exchanges
throughout the territory. Every
telephone call must be handled
as "A unit. The provisions in
Denver during the present con
clave are such that each one of
the daily 100000 calls will be
handled aspromptly and as care
fully as at any other time"
The careful study and perpara-
ton to provide for the telephone
needs OF conventions and similar
gatherings shows quite conclu.
sivelv that the business of the
telephone company, as well as
that of other service corporat-
ions is unusual and that the diff
culties which confront them are
not to be Judged by every. day
standards.

Flight of Our
Industries.

One of the leading Eastern Jour
nails recently contained the fol-
lowing editorial comment with
reference to the disasterous
effects which the proposed tariff
law IS having on the business
enterprises throughout the coun-
try:
Factory owners who see ruin

market to Canadian competition

Secretary Redheld. A Los Ang-
eles electrical supply plant is the
newest recruit to the industrial
exodus. Like Gov. Foss OF Mas
sachusetts the Los Angeles man
utacturer asserts that his action
is forced by the failure of this
country to enter into reciprocal
tariff relations with our next
door neighbor.
We are going to quit this
country simply because our tariff
policy is wrong" SAID the man
ager of the Los Angeles enter
prise. 1--WE are forced to go to
Canada to AVOID the 35 per cent
burden imposed by Canada,
while our government is prepar-
ing to open our markets to Can
adian products without asking
tor the same advantages in their
Markets for our manufacturers
"Evidently our manufacturers
take little stock in the rec1proc-
ity clause which the Senate in
serted in the Underwood bill.
This afterthought authorizes the
President to put prohibitive
tariff on certain articles should
he discover that foreign nations
discriminate against this coun-
try. unless they cease doing so
and establish reciprocal relat-
ions.
1t was understood It one time
that such treaties would be ne
gotiated before putting the Tn
derwood tariff in effect, in order
that we might have basis OF
negotiations something to offer
in return for foreign concessions.
However. the bill as reported
out to the Senate contemplates
putting the law into effect before
taking note of violations of the
favored nation clause to our dis
advantage. The fear that such
practices will be resOrted to un-
der the new tariff seems to spr-
ing from the notion that the
favored nation clause is pract1c-
ally abrogated by the radical
changes we have made OF our
own volition as to the import
tax on articles which have been
coming III under our minimum
tariff.
"a big promise is held out as
what will result from the WELD
ing of a tariff club but seeing that
such a role would fix our status
as that of a country essaying to
make tariffs for all the world,
obviously little Roadway could
possible be made. In any event,
the mischief will have been done
before long drawn out negotiat-
ions and ratifcations, and per-
haps a tariff war, could put an
end to any determinations.
Meanwhile, the American invas.
ion of Canada may have assum-
ed wholesale proportions" !"

Do Your Sh piping Early.

DIR. Neff. Director Of Health and Chair
ties, points out the fact that the Christ
mas shopping season brings long hours
and overwork to th great army Of sales
people. These evils bring in their train
fatigue and lowered resistance to disease.
As consequence of this many sales
people contract colds, bronchitis, pneu-
monia and tuberculosis anil kindr I'd
ailments.
The campaign of education in favor Of
early shopping has been going on for
several years now, and the results have
been good. People generally have the
desire TO be kind to Que another, ut as a
rule they are thoughtless. and it is this,
as much as anything else, that makes
countless millions mourn" Once their
attention is called to an injustice or a
bad system they usually try to correct it.
This has been the case with the .'Shop
Early crusade. The arguments in favor
of shopping early are 50 convincing that
they scarcely need repetition, but this
year they are reinforced by the voice oil

CARELESS WITH GOLD.

Persons who are accustomed to OBJ
serve the extreme care with which

who risk their lives for the precious
metal in sparsely settled regions
where it is mined.
In the log cabins In which Klondik-

with boots. cooking utensils and pro-
visions, waiting to be transported by

hold gold. Old tobacco cans and fruit
and vegetable cans stand full Of mug
gets on the shelves. and sacks of gold
dust are flung upon the floor.
On one occasion little pack train
Of three mules brought to Dawson
City $4,000 worth of gold in com
mon sacks. over which the mule driv-
er, acting on his own responsibility,
fastened bit of sailcloth, lest mule
falling on a rock or against a branch
should accidentally rip open sack
and spill the contents. The whole lot
was thrown with other goods into the
packers Office and left there until the
following morning.
At another time $4,000 worth was
sent down on one horse The packer
In charge did not know who had given

Red Water.

Apropos of the red water" seen in

writes that in all the samples exam

Australia) the color was wholly due
to curious little organism, either
oval or round. and equipped with two
small fageila or lashlike extensions.
When examined under microscope
the bodies Of these minute specks Of
living matter are seen to be intensely
augmented with a red coloring matter.
When the brine becomes saturated the
oval form changes to circular shape.
When such brine begins to crystal
lie the resulting salt has reddish
