council was to have had today
with Manager Bean of the T. r. &
P. over the regranting of power
franchise to the company was
postponed until Wednesday.
This WAS done to allow time for
Supt. Allen to go over the terms
of the agreement by which the
company says 1t will furnish the
city with an auxiliary service In
exchange for it's franchise, revok-
ed Is months ago.
Five more of the citizens whom
the mayor asked for opinions con-
corning the granting of the fran

today.
Before Wednesday the mayor
intends to look into the possibility
of having the North X street line
extended under the agreement to

Stone Webster In
Combine 10 Grab
u. S. Power Sites
OF Vast Importance.

Men in the conservation move
ment who should know, say the
water power fight which will take
place this winter is to be the most
far-reaching, carefully-organized
and determinedly fought of any
similar fight before congress.
White COAL" as water power Is
called, is going to be the con-
trolling factor in the nations de-
velopment for centuries to come,
say the conservation people. The
country with the most power, and
the power which Is put to the
best uses, Is to be the economic
and political master Of the world
Herein lies Tacoma's opportunity.
Coal is being superseded by
power at an enormous rate. Elec-
tricity Is the key to the industry
Of the future.
Monopolized in private hands,
the owners of the nations power
will be the economic masters of
the whole population.
If the title to the nations re-
naming power sites can be held
by the government cheap power
may mean many blessings for the
people, but IL the title is parted
with, monopoly prices paralleling
the experience with the oaal trust
will be the result.
Unless the administration turns
in and fights vigorously beside the
National Conservation association,
1t is feared that much bad power
legislation will go through con
gress while the attention of the
country is occupied with nationa
defense and other questions.

WASHINGTON, ID. O.,
The biggest INSTRUMENTATION
fight In the history of the eff
fort to protect and preserve
the nations public resources
Is predicted for the coming
session of congress.
The great water power in
terests-StOne-W cluster, Cen
eral Electric, Pacific Gas Il
Electric, and all their allied
interests - have started
big drive" to get past con-
gress legislation that will
permit them to complete the
acquisition and eventual mo-
nOpolizatton Of the nations
valuable water power sites.
This fight possesses a vast
significance for Tacoma and
all the Puget Sound country,
the future of which hinges
largely ON the development
Of its immense potential wa
ter power.
The water power lobby last ses-
sion was successful in preventing
the passage of the Ferris water
power bill, backed by Secretary
of the Interior Lane, and this leg
islation must come up again this
winter.
Now the water power lobby is
gathering for the battle. An i'm
posing array of legal talent will
confront congress. Among the
more notable representatives of
power interests will be Rome G..
Brown. Minneapolis attorney. He
writes long briefs for the benefit
of congressional committees and
suggests amendments to power
bills, always in favor of his
clients. He represents officially
the st. Anthony Falls Power Co.
Seattleite to BE There.
Another power attorney who
will represent power interests
this winter is Josiah Turney New
comb, sometime of New York, at
torney-at-law, who has represent
ed the Stone-Webster interests.
He has been a special lobbyist be-
fore state legislatures throughout
the country where Stone-Webster
were interested.
Harry j. Pierce, now of Seattle,
formerly connected with the Gem
eral Electric interests of New
York, is another power lobbyist
who is expected to be active. He
was prime mover in the Port
land water power conference, re-
Gently held at Portland, Ore. to
organize opposition to conserva-
tion legislation.
s. 2. Mitchell, president of the
Electric Bond & Share Co., the
holding company of the General
Electric, who has appeared before
senate and house committees in
the past is expected to be active.
So is Frank Fl. Short, an attor-
ney of Fresno, Cal. He has rep
resented the Pacific Gas & Elec-
trio, and the San Joaquin Light
&Power Co. before congress.
These gentlemen will be rein
forced If necessary by numerous
presidents, vice presidents and
general managers of various pow
er companies expanding from the
Atlantic to the Pacific.

hours per day. Such court or tribunal.

ment for non-payment Of fine or other
wise. shall determine and specify
whether such Imprisonment shall be at
hard labor q not. Such labor may be
in the jail or Jail yard, upon public
roads and streets, public buildings,

Persons awaiting trial may be allowed
upon request TO perform such labor.
Each prisoner performing labor may be
paid a reasonable compensation BY
the county il imprisoned in violation

IN other words, il Is pointed out by
attorneys, that compensation can only,
under this act, be where the imprison-

Dean Swift long ago analysed some

Labeled once with the pregnant mon

little s%trategies which keep them out

Yet any man may become a bore at
times. A good deal depends upon
moods and circumstances. Poetic JUS
tice indeed would require that bores
be extinguished by enforced associa-

Y er social punishment inflicted
upon n Of the species by a great

WHAT'S IN TIE RIVER.
Result Of an Investigation Made Forty
Years Ago.

Elk Point.-A careful experiment
was made this week fforty years ago.
by an inquiring individual here to as.
certain just what proportion OF the
muddy water of the Missouri. at high
water, is clay or finely pulverized
earth, A quantity of river water by
weight was cleared of all the sediment
it deposited. which was accurately
weighed, after being heated until all
moisture had been expelled, and the
clay was left perfectly dry. This dry
sediment was just II seventysecond
part of the weight of the water from
which it was procured. This may ap'
pear too small a result. but is in reality
very large. From this and similar
data. anyone car figure out the amount
of land that must be ground up and
mixed with the river every day to keep
it as muddy as now. Assuming the Mis-
souri, to be half a mile wide at this
place, eight feet deep on an average
and running five miles an hour, it is
found that every hour it carries past
us a mass of clay which would weigh
over $4,000 tons, ii ~rS~f-,tir dry.
enough to cover five city lots witt
a layer Of dirt fifteen feet deep. This
process goes IN every hour, day anG
night, and the normo mass Of II
luyium that annually reaches the Gull
OF Mexico from the bluffs along the
upper Missouri river is not easy tc
be conceived, even when expressed il

Bis INCREASE Of
FARM PRODUCTS
Province of Alberta Shows In.
crease of Over 20 Millions.

Figures just compiled by the public
ment show that last year, notwith-
standing that quite a third Of the prov
ince was affected by the drought to
q very serious extent, the total value
OF agricultural products actually pro-
duced in the province showed an in
GREASE Of over twenty million dollars
over that Of the previous year. AL.
though southern Alberta had a bad
year ag~riculturally, the province as a
whole experienced a period of great
prosperity. due principally to mixed
farming. which is becoming more gen
r with each succeeding year.
The value Of mixed farming, in fact,
was never better illustrated than last
year as the value of the animals
slaughtered and sold alone cQualed
the value of the spring wheat crop,
without taking into consideration the
value of the butter. milk, cheese, poul-
try, vegetables, and other by-products
Of the farm.
Oats was the banner grain crop,
1,1aI,3 1872 acres being seeded, and pro-
ducing 3|4.397,117 bushels, or 30.15 to
the acre. Sold at an average Of soc
per bushel, these yielded a revenue OF
Sll,l9S,53S. Comparatively little win
ter wheat was produced, the yield be-
Ing a little short Of one million bush
els, but the spring wheat crop
amounted to 1902, 0S3 bushels, the
yield per acre being 1926. At an aver
age Of $i35 per bushel, the value OF
the spring wheat crop was therefore
s20,3S7,S12. The total production OF
barley was 7,S47,640 bushels, which. at
