MOTHER NATIONAL PARKWAY NoT7

Up at Bellingham, the Mount Baker club has laid
the foundation of movement for the creation OF
Mount Baker national park, similar to the Mount
Tacoma national park. A bill to this effect will be
introduced at the next session of congress.
The proposal is worthy the support of the entire
Sound country. While the park would be great
thing for Bellingham, it also would mean much to Ia
coma and all the other cities hereabouts. 1t would
mean another attraction for tourists to this north
western wonderland.
With two national parks on Puget Sound, the
Eastern public which loves to travel would learn all
the sooner that the lure of Switzerland is stronger
than the lure of own Cascades, once you become
acquainted with them. A tourist coming to the
state to visit Mount Baker would invariably include
our mountain also in his intinerary. And Tacoma, of
course would share in the benefits to be derived.

The fastest train record for 436 miles was made by
the New York Central in six hours and forty-seven

 In the meantime, the Mexicans realizing that they outnumbered ths American fully two to one, made g concentrated attack on the brush where the cavalrymen had taken cover The Americans stood the fire about ten minutes and then scattered It is believed that the missing |troopers were killed or wounded in this fighting, but owing to the thick ness of the brush no trace of any but three has been found.
 For more than three, hours guerills fighting was kept up, when 100 cav alrymen arrived to reinforce the Americans. The 'Mexicans then scat. tered and the Americans started tt round them up.

DEPARTMENTAL STATE GOVERNMENT.

Departmental state government closely following the federal system, Is laid down in the New York consti- t.ution, which was adopted in conven- tion assembled lasting several months and which will have to be voted upon by the people of New York state at the next election. r
 The new system reduces the num- Der of elected officials and provides for the appointment of others. The idea is to centralize responsibility.
 As no boss ever bosseds the federal system, and great many bosses have bosesd the irresponsible state system which Elihu Root sai dallowed the people to rule about as much as the dsnizens of Venezuela rule, it looks as if the gcod old days are becoming more circumscribed all the time.
 It seems rather remarkable that after all these years of travail in stats government it finally came to pass that a least one state is pattern ing its constitution after the federal system.
 Of course, we presume politics of the state variety had nothing to da with the reluctance of state govern ments in this respect.

poverty there would be little of il going on. To certain extent, they are right; only it is a fact that the death rate among infants born in said poverty is appalling, while the in- fants of the well to do, though fewer in number, have better chances to live.
 I The high d ath rate among negroes is based gn the same cause as the high death rate among poverty stricken whites; and the fact that the negroes rate is highest proves the cause, <

DEATH RATE AND THE NEGRO.

As everyone knows, the death rate stands almost in fixed proportion to housing conditions. Bad housing means a high death rate; good hous- iIg means a low death rate.
 And as the, ownership of homes by individuals increases, the death rate decreases, because>a man owning his own home in nine cases out of ten will see that it is at least sanitary, as against an absentee landlord who \ isn't so particular in a great many instances, particularly if the property iG worth little and rents low.
 So i. happens that in Southern and Northern cities alike, thea death rate of the negro is abnormaily higher than that of the whites. The latest figures show that the death rate among whites is 15.9 per thousand, while among negroes it is 27.S. The only white men who beat the negroes at dying are the ''high livers," who commit suicide in the lap Of luxury
 Tuberculosis and penumonia are the Dlagues of both races;;s and these win man killers work best in the midst of abieet poverty.
 The neral is plain: II poverty conid be. snppressed, eli,hinated or annjiiiIated, there would.
