crop wheat have been large, but of
late sellers have shown an indisposi-

ceptons to the quiet in the east are
found IN the raw wool trade at Bos-
ton which is active at high prices.
and in the cotton goods trade, where
sales Of convertible goods are re-
ported enlarging and where sales OF

Industrial operations are quiet as
a whole, but significance is lent to the
undeniable tone of optimism bred OF

WOMAN FACES ANGRY
MOB OF PRISONERS
Miss Katherine B. Davis Says
She'll Have Order if She
Has to Use Militia.

NEW YORK. July 11.-Seven hun

institution Friday afternoon by heav-
lily armed guards. on the platform

man commissioner of correction, who
had FASTENED out to the prison after
the third outbreak in As hours had
been reported to her.
AS the last Of the convicts found
a place in the big room, Miss Davis
stepped TO the front of the platform
and thrust her jaw at a fighting
angle. Those nearest her noticed that
she clenched one small fist and in this
attitude she glared for a full minute
into the sea of brutal faces upturned
to hers Then she spoke and her
voice was. like the crack Of a whip

That was all she said. but she held
her rigid pose and kept her eyes I'M
blinkingly on the assembled convicts.
And then spontaneously and appar-
emily from every part of the big room
at once there burst a wild cheer. The
men were marched back to their cells
and for time IL seemed that Miss
Davis courageous and determined
stand had broken the backbone of the
mutiny.
Later, however, when the murmur-
ings in each corridor had arisen
again, Miss Davis who had been wait
ing in the prison office made a trip
through the prison. On each tier she
made brief address, telling the men
that if they would elect one repre-
sentative she would receive the entire
delegation in the warden's Office and
listen 10 their complaints.
Eight Convicts were sent down and
they set forth their grievances. Miss

OLYMPIA, Jan. Gov. Lister
afternoon announced the appoint
ment of Rev. M. H. Marvin, of Sum
nyside, and Mrs. w. H. Udall, of Ia
coma, to be the new members of the
minimum wage commission.
Rev. Mr.. Marvin fills the place that
has been vacant since the board was
organized. Mrs. Udall takes the
place to which DR.. Theresa McMah-
on was not reappointed by the gov
ernor. The governor also announced
that he had received the resignation
of Mrs. Florence Swanson, of Ray
mond, as member of the board, and
said that he would not accept it to
take effect earlier than the first of
February, as Mrs. Swanson now has
work in her hands that needs be
completed.
The reason for Mrs. Swanson's res
ignation is said to be two-fold, per-
sonal duties and the controversy that
arose at Everett over the rights of
employers to regulate the morals of
their woman employees. OF the new
appointees, Mr.. Marvin is a promin-
ent Methodist minister, while Mrs.
Udall is well known in club circles in
Tacoma.

Subject May Come Up Again at the
Next National Meeting.
Will the question of proportional rep
resentation in the national grange
come up again for discussion at the
next meeting of the national body
Very likely. The fact is it is likely to
form a subject of discussion there I'M
til some form of proportional repre-
sentation is adopted. This is the reso-
luton that was presented last year and
voted down:
Resolved That every state master and
wife Cor husband) shall have each one vote
on all questions. On roll call every state
master and wife Cor husband) shall have
one vote each and for each and every TO-
600 members above the first 10000 shall
have one vote each additional.
There are two sides to this question
of representation according to state
membership One side believes that
the founders of the Order were wise in
their adoption of state representation.
giving each state an equal vote with
every other. and they cite the fact that
that system has worked well for these
forty-six years. The other side holds
that it is only fair to the membership
of the order that voting strength be
based on membership in the state.
There are two or three counties in New
York state each of which has more
members than a half dozen of the
western states combined but state
with 1000 members. for instance, has
just as great voting strength as New
York with 5000 members The res
olution that was voted down at the last
session called for state representation
on all questions except when roll
call was ordered. then for membership
representation Will the next nation
al meeting come any nearer solving
this very perplexing problem?

70 pour oil on the troubled wat
ers. Oil, however, cannot do
much good as long as the hus-
band clings to his cups. Be
tween drink and the family
comfort there is an irrepress-
ible fight. A man who swal-
lows up his wife's earnings in
the form of grog cannot expect
her to love him. The fateful
record of the court shows that
drink is accountable for 46 per
cent of all of the cases of do
mestic trouble that comes be-
fore it. This is a terrible in
dictment of the habits of a large
number of married men. 1t is
an equally terrible indictment
of our municipal management,
which permits lives to be
wrecked and povery created at
such monstrous rate. Surely
personal liberty has been
stretched as far as it ought to
be when it produces results of
this kind in quantities SO por-
tentiouS.'

MISSIONARY CLAIMS HE HAS
FOUND RACE OF GIANTS

LONDON, Jan. 3.-The Rev. c.
Lea-Wilson,- who conducts a mission
in the district of the White Nile, a
thousand miles south of Khartoum,
has arrived in England with interest
ing facts about race of negro giants
who inhabit the Bahr-el-Ghazal, two
hundred miles west of the river.
These natives practice neither can
nibalism nor human sacrifice and
have some admirable traits. Unlike
their neighbors they are never cruel
to women or children, and their hab-
it's of decorating themselves is some
what akin to the people of civilizat-
ion.
For reasons unknown even to
themselves, the adults all have six
of their lower teeth removed, OF
those remaining, however, they take
the most scrupulous care, cleaning
them daily with a native brush and
wood ash. They take much pride in
dressing their hair, powder their face
and wear ostrich feathers. They be-
lieve in a Supreme Being to whom
they make sacrifices through their
chiefs or witch doctors.

british COLUMBIA Fun
ESTRY

The report of the provincial
chief forester of British Column
bia is an instructive document
IF shows that the province dur
ING the past year has received
. net income of S3,OOO,OOO from
the sale of timber on the pub
liz lands. The forester believes
tbat the revenue will grow
greater year by year until the
animal forest cut keeps pace
with the normal forest grow
th' which is not the case at
present.
The timber growth of British
Columbia is identical with that
of this state, and logging and
milling conditions are similar
in both. In the province all OF
the crown lands, the title OF
King of England, are admlnlst-
cred for the benefit of the peo-
pie of the province, by local
officers under the immediate
control of the people Of the
province.
In this state of Washington
the forest lands, the title to
which is theoretically the feder-
al government, are administer
ed under the direction OF a bur-
eau at Washington, D. c., 5000
miles away. AS result, the
cost of administration here is
more than the income from the
lands. Further the cutting OF
timber on the federal reserves
is but petty faction of the an
nual growth. Moreover, there
is a tremendous economic loss
every year because of the fail
ure to cut the matured timber.
which is deteriorating probably
as fast as the new growth OF
young trees is proceeding.
British Columbia has practic-
al forestry administration, for
the benefit of the people of the
province. This state has theo-
retical forestry administration.
ostensibly for the benefit of the
federal treasury, but PRACTICAL
at .loss to the federal treasury
of three dollars for every dol

No better or more practical
argument for the state admin
istration of the states resources

than the contrast between re-
suits in British Columbia and
those seen in this state in hand

acter and other natural condit-

public Sentiment Developed.

The National Grange Monthly Is au.
thority for the statement. that the New
England states have total grange
membership Of more than 100000 and
hold nearly 10000 meetings every year.
It is in these meetings, where farmers
say just what they think about public
measures, that public sentiment is de-
veloped that makes itself felt at the
proper time and place and so makes the
farmer potent influence for good leg
islation in county and state.

What !. Community Service?

At a lecturers conference not long
ago the question was asked, what is
your grange doing In the line of COM
munity serviceY' OF the dozen or
more oranges represented not one could
report doing or having done any dis
tinctive service for the community
where located. Several said there did
not seem to be anything they could
do, and others had. enough to do in
keeping themselves in good running
condition. But surely the grange that
confines all it's efforts to improving it's
members condition, irrespective of 9TH
ers outside its gates, Is not fulfilling
it's entire mission. The grange that
serves its community best serves itself
best, and the good deed done for 9TH
ers reacts upon it for it's own good.
Ask those who have performed some
altruistic service for their community
IL this is not so.

Oppose centraIizng of Power In New
Jerseys Board of Education.
The New Jersey state grange and
the subordinate oranges. acting on
their own motion, are protesting
against what they call the centraliza-
ton of school powers in the hands of
the state board. Representatives of
fifty oranges met the state board Of
education and stated the reasons for
their protesting against proposed ac-
ton of the board They believe in the
principle of home rule in this matter
They object to the tenure of office act
under which teachers who have had
three years of continuous service cam
not be removed except for cause. They
hold that under this law teachers be-
come arbitrary and it strips local dis
tricts of the powers that should rest
in them. They also objected to the
expense necessary to be incurred by
the requirements Of medical inspection.
They believe that the local boards
should determine in this matter.
The grangerS furtDer opposed the
compulsory payment for transporta-
ton Of high school students in the
country and asked that it be abolished.
They also asked that more attention be
given to the education of farm boys.
A fourth protest was against the state
boards controlling the design, cost and
erection Of school buildings. forcing
the farmers to pay for such buildings
as the state board determined must be
erected. The grangers understand that
many of these matters are matters of
law, but they contend that the state
board should assist them in getting
these laws modified or repealed. This
is said to be the position Of PRACTICAL
ly every subordinate grange in the
state.
