Cardinal Cibbons's New Year
Message: Give Thanks to God

BALTIMORE, Dec. 31.--The following
is Cardinal Gibbons's New Years mes
sage:
The chief thought that should occupy
our minds at the advent Of the new
year Is to thank the Lord for the tenn
poral and spiritual blessings that He
has bestowed upon ~ during the last
year both as q nation and as indi-
viduals.
We should thank the Lord that We
are at peace with the whole world and
particularly so within our own borders,
as we are free from domestic strife.
We should thank Him for the tenn
pora! blessings that we enjoy and for
the prosperity that abounds through
out the length and breadth Of this great
land Of ours.
Above all, we should thank Him fol
all the spiritual blessings that He has
conferred upon us individually, and |,
should be our principal resolution "a
manifest our thanksgiving by q deter
mination to adjust our lives during the
coming year according to the prin-
ciples laid down in the Gospel and

Seek To Prevent Waste
Of Salmon

With a view to preventing loss OF
large quantities of humpback sal
mon which are allowed to go to
waste during the sockeye fishing
season, Governor Lister has written
to Fish Commissioner L. H. Darwin
asking the commissioner to make
complete investigation of the condi-
lions surrounding the waste and ten
der report on the matter.
The governor says in his letter that
he feels it to be possible to prevent
the loss of humpback salmon in
some way, even though the canneries
do not wish to use them at the same
time, the heavy sockeye run is on.
He suggests that some method Of
sailing might be devised as a means
of preventing the loss, and asks
Commissioner Darwin to make a
complete report at such time as he
is able to, after making thorough
investigation.
Owing to the comparatively in
ferior quality of the humpback sal
mon as marketable fish, the can
merry interests throw the great maj
GRITTY of the humpbarks caught dur
ing the sockeye season back into the
water, making them complete
loss.

Westinghouse Left
Only $35,OOO,OO

PITTSBURG, Pa, Mar. 18.-The
will of George Westinghouse, who
died in New York last week, was
filed here Tor probate today. No
estimate of the value of the estate
is made, but it is said to be about
$35, 100000. Letters testamentary
were issued to Walter D. Uptede-
graft, of this city, who was the only
one of the three executors presnt.
The other executors are George H.
Westinghouse, of Kidder, Seneca
county, New York, brother, and
Charles A. Terry, New York.
The testament is brief document
and under its terms Margaret e. w.
Westinghouse, the widow, is given
two thirds of all of the capital stock
of the Westinghouse Air Spring COM
pany, of which he was owner, and
one-third of such stock to his son.
Certain personal Office and house
hold employees are given years sal
airy and a bequest of $4,000 is
made to Alexander Garden Uptede-
graft.
The residue of the estate is divid-
ed 40 per cent to the widow, 40 per
cent to the son and 20 per cent to
the brother of the testator. TIE
will is dated January Is, 1914.

State Buys food
Supplies At Low
Price This Time

That food prices are little lower
in the state OF Washington now than
they have been, Ia indicated by the
fact that certain Of the staple goods
being contracted for at this time
to supply the state institutions un-
der the management Of the board of
control are coming at slightly lower
rates. In addition to the letting Of
the sugar contract at figure about
half a cent q pound lower that q
year ago, the board Of control has
awarded the contract for meat and
butter at figures considerably lower
also.
The difference in the prices Of
meats is comparative slight, in some
cases a little above the prices paid
last fall, but In others enough lower
to bring the average down q little.
Butter shows q greater difference,
the prices running from Csc to CSC
a pound as against about SIC last
fall. The cause of this b thought
to be due in part to the larger sup
ply in the spring than In the fall,
and partially partly to the reduc-
ton Of the sugar tariff.

University Loan
Fund Aggregate
Now $4,000

With the addition of the loan funds
by the senior class and the Chehalis
county club, the amount that will be
available each year to needy stud
ents of the University Of Washing
ton will total $4,000.
The Hedges Memorial fund, a.
mounting to $4,000, has been in ex-
istence for several years, and, &C
cording to Bursar H. T. Condor,
the custodian of the fund, 1t has
helped q large number Of students
to tide themselves over financial
shoals.
The plan offered by the present
senior class Is to abandon giving a
senior memorial and to put the
money in Bursar Condon's hands to
be used as loan fund. The Chehal-
is clubs addition, together with con-
tributions from Michigan alumni,
and other organizations, will soon
run the total up to $4,000.

A Bank Of tn. Year 600 g, c.

The very earliest banking firm :
which there is any record was that
of Egibi & Sons, an institution
which carried on advance, exchange
and general financial business in
Babylon in the year 600 B. G.
knowledge of this firm is obtained
from certain records on clay tablets
which have been found in recent ex-
cavations made by a party of Eng
lish and French archaeologists near
the site of the ancient city above
mentioned. Bills of credit, drafts,
etc., in the form of small burnt clay
tablets, each bearing the character
istic signature of Egibi & Sons, have
been found in many other parts OF
Asia Minor.

DISCUSSING MEAT PROBLEMS

1t is earnestly hoped that some
thing will come of the discussion or
the meat problem which has been
going on for the last few years, says
the Buffalo Express. This country
should produce many more DeeI
cattle than it is now producing.
There is no agency that can do 80
much to encourage the raising OF
cattle than the agriculture colleges.
They have done wonderful work for
this country. If they can develop
the cattle industry, they will add
enormously TO their usefulness.

THE SUGAR INDUSTRY

There seems to be decided diff
erence of opinion between alleged
authorities in respect to the influence
which the reduction of the tariff on
sugar will have upon the sugar in
dustry of Louisiana. The first re-
duction in duties went into effect on
March 1. The entire duty will be
finally removed next year. The New
York Journal of Commerce has re-
Gently stated that "the assertions of
New Orleans and Louisiana sugar
interests generally" are to the effect
that "the sugar industry will be as
strong as ever, if not better off than
in the past"
On the other side, the New Orleans
Times-Democrat gives specific in
stances by names and dates of the
removal of sugar houses from the
great plantations, to be set up in
Honduras and in Cuba, in both OF
which places it is believed that the
sugar Industry will have future. It
claims that the larger sugar planters
OF Louisiana are going out OF bust
ness in that state and are removing
their investments to Cuba and Cen
trail America, believing that their
superior methods, when applied to
the growth Of sugar cane in the rich
er regions in the tropics, will enable
them to survive in the industry, az
they cannot in Louisiana. They
have devoted their lives to this one
business and have learned it thor
