GROWING COMMERCE OF THE PACIFIC

1t looks as though the Pacific at last to into
its own and become in small way rival of the Atlantic
in the matter of shipping The danger by the Suez route
has driven trade away from it, and it has perfoce turned
to the West as the nearest and safest way east When
the Panama canal is permanently open for vessels this
trade will grow steadily larger and in time even after
the war over and all danger from that source removed
the volume of trade from the Orient to Europe by this
route will become still greater
At present the cost of shipping clear across the
tnent by rail is handicap to the trade yet in spite Of
this it is growing far faster than most folks have any
idea of.
Yesterday a dispatch from Tacoma stated that the
Osaka Shosen Kasha line from Japan would take cargoes
from that port between May and November l. amount
ing to 215000 TONS and the inbound cargo of these ships
would amount to 100000 TONS which would require AZ
vessels running steadily to handle.
The estimated value of the export cargOes is S15000
O00 That of the imports is not given. Tacoma is small
port comparatively and this vast amount of business done
through it shows how great must be the volume Of bust
ness done the coast in the way of trade with the
Orient

The "swat the fly" campaign is to
be started early this year and every.
body is advised not only to swat the
first fly, but to also swat the breeding
places, according to a leaflet issued by
the University of Oregon, dated
April /.
The leaflet proposes plans by which
the public in general may become deep
ly interested in the swatting campaign.
Plans are also offered as to how to
manage a fly campaign. A few of
them are as follows;
Get an seffective organization that
will include the chairman of the board
of health, superintendent of schools and
principals of all junior high schools.
Call a meeting and discuss the import
ance of an organized fly campaign.
Overcome the feeling that some have,
that flies are not so bad after all. A
flyless town is possible. Convince peo.
pie that the fly is a deadly nuisance
and also that it can be exterminated
Every home should be provided with
good outdoor fly trap placed in the
back yard or in the barn yard.
Do your fly swatting early. One fly
swatted early in the season is better
than killing thousands in the middle of
the summer. Do not offer bounties to
children to kill flies, as netting and
trapping is more effective and also
more sanitar.
Find out if the city dump is a fly
breeding place for the entire town.
Published by the Extension depart
ment of the University of Oregon the
leaflet takes the broad stand that if the
people could only realize the Importance
of exterminating the fly, every house
hold would start a campaign not only
against the fly, but also against its
breeding places

the murdered protests that he is not Torurc that he is
only 26 years old and could not possibly be that gentleman

that if it be shown Gefene is 30 years DID, he is

SMOKED CIGARETTE
WHILE KILLING WIFE

The territorial school teacher,
at Nushagak, killed his wife On
the 18th of January, by beating
her to death, says the Seward
Gateway. The Russian priest,
came over from there last night
and told me all about it. The
school teachers name is McLain
better known as Red McLain;
his wife is a niece to Rev. kasha-
veroff, the Russian priest. He
says that McLain must have been
crazy, as his little boy was pres
ent at the time (that is McLain's
boy. He told the priest that his
father beat his mother for two
hours, by pounding her head
against the floor. He stopped
once during the beating and made
a cigarette and smoked it, then
started in again. He told the lit
tie boy if he told anyone that he
would serve him the same way.
McLain was in Jail last summer
for beating his life. During the
month OF December he was fined
6Ioo for hitting a man over the
head with a beer bottle. The man
ne struck was unconscious for IL
days.

putic branch OF modern healing
methods little. is known, much
less understood. Neither is it
generally understood that in every
country where the science of med
icine is know, profound minds
are ever searching for new cura-
tive methods. Once in a while a
lash of light is given to the world
in the form OF a new discovery
that represents years of patient
research and the though of hum
dreds of human minds. Yet SO
little is the understanding of what
one of these discoveries really
means that the majority usually
Jump TO the conclusion that it is
more or less of an accident. In
almost every case this idea is in
error. Few if any of the great
discoveries in the medical field
nowadays are the result of acct
dent. The science is being con-
stantly carried forward by a
mighty corps of the great Drained
men Of the earth. Shut up in the
laboratories of the world these
patient toilers are, some of them,
deyoting their entire lives to the
effort to discover a remedy for
but ne of the numerous ills that
afflict humanity Some, like the
great Pasteur, are spending their
existence i'll searching out reme-
dies for vast range OF pathogenic
causes produced by those minute
organisms know as germs. Others
are devoting tlfeir study to nerve
and brain and other diseases of
the degenerative type. Still others
are spending their years in the
effort to find the causes of the
more battling types, such as tu
berculosis and cancer. Those
who efforts are confined solely to
the laboratory are augmented by
the tens of thousands of able
physicians who themselves study
while attempting to relieve. All
this is more or less hidden from
he sight Of the world until such
time as great epidemic or a war
arises, which displays to the full
est advantage the wonderful re-
suits achieved. Under such con-
ditions the effects of medical re-
search become readily apparent to

Although the U-53 has disappeared,
she left a wake of fear and trouble be-
hind her. Shipping is still tied up at
New York and other ports and the world
is discussing the purpose and probable
outcome of the raid There is a strong
trend of opinion toward the proposition
that the main idea back of the sending
of the undersea boat to our shore was
to warn the United States by some
thing stronger than words of Germany s
power to strike in event of the Wash
ington government doing anything that
might bring about war between the
two countries. The issue over which
this possible break might come is the
resumption of submarine warfare of the
nature against which the United States
protested and secured Germany's con
sent to modify.
