CftAPIEH v.
Mr.. Tacoman:
Have you ever taken the
time to acquaint yourself with
the railroad situation In Taco
ma? Have you ever made a
comparison of the railroad sit
uation in Tacoma as to the
years 1903 and 1913? If not.
DO 1T NOW. If you have you
surely must realize the true
situation as it exists here to-
day. Ten years ago. Tacoma
had one railroad running In
and out of the city. for which
the people were very thankful.
Today we have five transcon-
tinentai railroads, each of
which has purchased terminal
facilities, for which we are
more than thankful. Ten years
ago, very small portion of
the water frontage in Tacoma
was held for railroad purposes.
Look at the holding of the var
ious railroads today and you
will be surprised at the amount
of property they have acquired.
Do you suppose for one moment
that these railroads have pur-
chased these enormous tracts
of land at cost OF several
million dollars for the sake of
speculation? ! should say not.
They need 1t in their business

logical way to the deep sea.

and with the shipping rates by

Smell declares that II the law defended
what was considered the legitimate
claim Of the baker to proper lveh-
hood it was equally solicitous for the
welfare Of hs customers and was most
severe upon the baker who sold bread
deficient In weight or quality.
For the first offense he was drawn
on a hurdle through the principal
streets. which would be thronged with
people and foul with traffic, with the
offending loaf suspended from his neck
From a Den and ink sketch of this cere-
mony it appears that the unhappy
tradesmgn wore neither shoes nor
stockings and had his arms strapped
to his sides. Ii seems also that TWO
horses dew the hurdle, which suggests
that It ratified along at pretty hVeiy
pace.
For the second offense the baker en-,
loyed another ride upon the hurdle and

A CHAMPION SPELLER.
Horace Greeley Was Wonder When
Only Six Years Of Age.


No champion of the old time spelling
matches, perhaps, ever exceled Horace
Greeley. He was, in fact a spelling
prodigy. What would the boys ana
girls of today, who grumble over thelr
daily stint of twenty words think OF
a child not yet six years old who could
actually spell every word in the IAN
guage! That is what the young Horace
is said to have been able to do.
His schooling began in his fourth
year, and the art Of spelling at once
became a passion with him. In school
and out he kept incessantly at It's
study. Hour after hour he would lie
on the floor, spelling over all the dim
cult words he could find In the few
books that the family owned.
The fame OF his prowess spread
Naturally Horate' was the first one
chosen at spelling matches. He had q
Hsping. whining voice and spelled bis
words with the utmost confidence
Sometimes in winter, when the snow
drifts were so deep that one Of the
big bows had to take him to the school
house on his back, the little white
haired fellow would drop asleep be
tween turns. When his word came
round his neighbor would nudge hin
anxiously. He would wake, spell hi
word and drop asleep again at once.

A Poet Whom Byron Sdlleu Nat1es
Best and Stsrnest Painter.
Dante was a great traveller and the
greatest pen impressionist who ever
wrote. He describes a landscape In
line so that It stays with you forever.
He uses the fewest possible number OF
words, hardly any adjectiyes, and the
picture leaps up before you, immortal
and unfOrgetable. Who can do this
among the moderns? Keats could.
Tennyson gives you English landscape.
If you read "In MemOriam' you have

Crabbe? Nobody And yet he Is
wonderful poet, as realistic as Tolstoy
and Arnold Bennett. Byron called
him the best painter Of nature-"Na-
ture's sternest painter, yet her best"
He writes about the poor as they
are, without sentimentality and with
out exaggeration, and as a painter OF
English landscape he still remains the
best He may not be read by the mod
ern generation, but he is not forgotten.

ON PORTLAND

George Fitch, who has been travel

lowing about Portland;
Portland, Oregon, is a large, two
story town, situated on the willamette
river and the Southern Pacific railway,
the former being by far the easier for
it to control. The ground floor of
Portland consists of fine business
section, vast collection of wooden
wharvea in various stages Of construc-
tion and decay and residence section
which is extending so fast that the
humble lahorer often builds a one-story
cottage up against a ESQ foot tree IN
the forest primeval two blocks from
the street car line. The second story
of Portland consists Of 900-fOut biull
inhabited by citizens with good hearts,
who get t. their homes 10y means Of
stairs, ladders and dizzy trolly line
Portland is magnihcently equipped
with scenery, and on a clear day. ac

Portland is just around the corn,
