lions Of feet Of standing timber. fenc-
ing, telegraph and telephone poles and
many out-houses today are feeding
forest fires that continue to sweep the
state. The pail Of smoke that has
prevailed since the start OF the fires,
today is more dense and envelopes the
entire state. Railroad companies took
precautions to prevent the destruc-
ton Of trestles, stationing guards to
stamp out fires.
During the night the fires gained
impetus and destroyed two large oil
tanks at Carlisle, igniting 1000 gal
Ions OF oil. At Camden, the home or
State Senator Hamilton was burned
during the night.
! Owing to the lack Of funds for the
purpose, Governor Hayes continued
his refusal to dispatch militiamen to
aid in fighting the flames.
Reports from Hot Springs declared
that city was In peril Of destruction
by the fires creeping down the
mountain sides.
Preparations were made to resist
the flames, however, and it is believed
the city would escape.

Quincy Project Which Has Just Been
Completed 10 One Of Most G'-

Attempted.

Big Wire at Bottom Of MissIssippi
Taps Power company's Lines
for Juice for Low

The first large cable In its history
river. The final bit of work was fin
ished Saturday and the long task
which has taken over two months to
complete Is now over. The cable
connects the South Quincy Drainage
and Ievee district with the Marion
County Drainage district and taps
the power line of the Mississippi Val
ley Power company to furnish cleo
trio power for both districts. The
power house in the Marion county
district is completed and the power
house on the Illinois side Is soon to
be erected.
The electric line runs from Hates
lake lane, one and half miles north
OF Marblehead, through 31a miles of
woodland where line of poles is
run straight as an arrow to the river.
In getting through this woodland a 90
foot clearance has been cut so that
trees cannot fall on the wires.
The work OF laying the cable across
the river was the supreme task.
There were three reels Of cable. each
reel weighing $4,000 pounds, and the
distance across the river is $500 feet.
Thirty-nine thousand pounds of cable
now lie IN the river bed. able to carry
IL 900 volts OF electricity. The cable
is 81 inches thick, the first cable to
be put across the Mississippi river.
After tapping the power line the
80, 900 volts are brought down to
II 900 to cross the river, and at the
Marion county power house are still
further brought down to 440 volts.
Two huge transformers do this work,
one at the power house and one at the
lane. In the power house are two big
30-inch pumps and three 100-horse
power motors.
The company which undertook this
tremendous task was the Freeman
Sweet company Of Chicago. George
l.. Chamberlain has had charge OF
the work and left Saturday for Chi
cago after its completion. He Will
return in few weeks for the test Of
the line.
The working gang set up shanties
at Turtle lake. where they have been
living the past three months. Huge
signs have been constructed on the
river bank warning, "Danger-11, 900
volts; don't anchor" Seventy-fve
feet from the river the line runs in
an S-foot trench. Across Turtle lake
there is a $50 foot span, where 1t was
necessary to erect double line Of
poles.
In laying the river cable It was
necessary to make two submarine
spices. The cable pulled 10000
pounds of its own weight and 1t took
two men to lift one end. The power
will be available for use in the bot
toms in small quantities now, as well
as for power houses.
The work was most important one
for Quincy as we'll as for the bottom
district and marks the beginning of
new era in the development Of that
rich territory which has been so long
unclaimed by the improvements Of
the day and age

The Federal League.-f the men
back of the Federal baseball league
understand their business they will
win out in the battle with organized
ball.
The big attendance at opening
games shows that the fans start the
season in sympathy with the Feds.
This is not surprising. There is
some romance about the new league
and very little about the old ones.
Organized baseball had become too
much of a cold-blooded business pro-
position. Players were bought and
sold like slaves. One-sided contracts
were dictated by the magnates Of the
baseball trust. The new league gave
players a show for their white alley
and fans have affection for players
and little or none for owners.
Before the revolt there were too
many bosses in baseball. Garry Herr
mann and Ban Johnson had too much
power The national game was too
thoroughly. commercialized. Syndi-
cate ownership was growing. The
two big leagues bossed all lesser and
minor leagues. Alien ownership was
growing -like Taft's ownership of
Cubs, Charlie Somers' ownership of
Cleveland, Toledo, Portland, New Or
leans and other cities.
Taft missed his opportunity when
he had a chance to sell to COnnery
and other Chicagoans. He may rea-
lie it now. The attendance at the
opening game of the Cubs must have
been an eye-Opener. Look at the at
tendance and enthusiasm at the Fed
opening on the North Side.
But the Fed promoters are slow.
They are losing their big chance.
They could grab off many of the shin
lest stars in the game. The reserve
clause is knocked out, but the old

Feds. Better use it.
Unions and ReIigion.-Mr. Perlee
in his letter to you asks for my def
milton of religion. When l wrote you
that l thought the unions needed
more religion, l understand religion
to be belief binding the spiritual
nature of a man to a supernatural
being on whom he is conscious that
he is dependent.
Now when a man believes that he
is dependent on a supernatural being
he tries to do what he considers that
he ought to do according to what he
knows of this supernatural being. In
my own case l can say with the
prophet Micah, What doth the Lord
require of thee but to DO justly and
to LOVE mercy and to WALK hum
bly, with thy God" Another defini-
ton of religion is given in the New
Testament. Pure religion and unde-
filed before God and the Father is
this: To visit the fatheTless and wild
Ows in their afflictiOn and to keep
himself unspotted from the world.
The other day talked with a work
ing man about unions. He said: eff
you attended a union meeting you
would not find that everyone present
had on uniOn-made hats or clothes or
shoes. If the unions had store on
the cooperative plan the union men
would not patronize it. ,"

think that if the union men had more
religion they would want to wear I'M

food and patrOnize union enterprises.

Now is the time for the Feds to cut

them, and the players are anxious to
