facilities lying idle Mt night. 1t was
decided to make the experiment Of Civ
ing its patrons the opportunity to
send fifty words at night for the cost
of ten word day message, to be de-
livered at the start of business the
next day The idea took from the
start. Business men found they could
send to their travelling statesmen at tae

which their men would have at the
start of the next days business quick
er than letter by days in some eases
and much cheaper than the old rate
of messages Then the man away from
home began to send his wife a night
letter, which sne read at breakfast the
next morning. Business houses began
Ito send appeals to customers by the
night letter Then the Western Union
went after the business in earnest and
now there are l2,000,000 night let
tcrs annually.
There is u lot OF psychology about
the night letter. In the first place
the Western Union figured tnat the
business man who sat down in front'of
his pile of mail in the morning would
give his first attention TO the tele'
grams. This belief was communicated
TO other business men, and the bust
ness men found il was good logic Now
the use of the night letter has been
ldeveloped until it is used for urging
lpayment on accounts: used by politi-
clans in the business Of getting votes;
used to ask contributions to war re-
lief funds; used for placing business
orders. and for MYRIAD of other uses.

Valley Lunbermen Go
On a Junketing Trip

j. r. Shaw, manager of the Hammond
Lumber company, Mill City, Ore, was
host TO the Willamette Valley Lumber
men s association, May 81, when that
organization enjoyed junketing trip
to the operations of that company in
connection with their regular semi
monthly meeting.
Members of the association met at
Salem, Ore, at l0:15 a. M, where auto
mobiles were furnished to make the en-
joyable trip to Mill City. The wealth
er was delightful, the roads perfect
and the 3S-mile ride completed in time
for lunch, which was served immediate
~ upon the arrival of the party. When
Mr.. shaw decided to become sawmill
manager, that day an able hotelkeeper
was spoiled. Spring chicken was the
base of the lunch around which he had
erected feast at once satisfying to n
hungry lumberman and gratifying the
aesthetic sense of an epicure-had one
been present.
Following the lunch. President c. X.
Spaulding called the meeting to order
for short business session, and Secre-
tary Jay $. Hamilton reported on the
eral discussion of market conditions it
was the concensus of opinion that or
ders showed a falling off but that
stocks were low and broken az the diff
ferent mills. A general "sit tight" at
titude was advised. Several matters
of interest to the association were
briefly discussed, after which Mr.. Shaw
personally conducted the members on q
tour of inspection to the mill and log
ging the company's mill and logging
operations.
Hammond Lumber Co.'s Operations.
Two years ago the mill of the Ham
mond Lumber company was cutting
about l25.000 feet in 10 hours. Today
it is turning out about 100000 feet in
the same period of time The mill con-
sists Of circular head rig and pony
circular. The tail end has pony
wickes gang. an Allis Chalmers hori-
zontal resaw. vertical Mershon resaw
and two trimmers. The live rolls and
transfer system display Mr.. Shaw's in
genuity as a mill builder. The space
available for the installation of addi-
tional transfer machinery was limited
and the arrangement handles the in
creased cut expeditiously The clears go
direct to the dry kilns which are North
Coast. A Curtis stacker is used and
an unstacker unloads the ears after dry
ing. The remanufacturing plant is well
arranged. A Pawling & Harnischfeger
mcnorail system is successfully used.
The different kinds of lumber are sort
ed from the transfer and assembled in
packapes sufficient for dav's run

Telegraph officials hope even this pre-
caution will not be necessary in a
year or two.
Telegraph officials believe that the
business and social possibilities of the
telegraph have only been tapped. They
believe there will be more new uses
and greater applications of the ser
vice. AS the night letter was inaugur-
ated in 1910 to supply use for facili-
ties at night, the day letter was start
ed to use the valleys in the service
facilities. There are "peaksn in the
business at 10 clock in the morning,

The Western Union has also Installed
notifications of cable service which
correspond closely to notifications in

fast regular cables there is the de-
ferred halfrate service sent along

cable service letter, based on thirteen
word rate, and the weekend letter ser
vice, which is based on twenty-five
word basis. These messages are filed
at any time up to midnight Saturday

RAILROAD HEADS EXPOSE FALLACY
 OF TARIFF TALK
Kearney of Wabash R. R. Says Prosperity on Way
 When War Broke.

Fort Wayne, Ind. Oct 1S.-Anothe CT railroad president has interfered with the efforts of the Republican cam 'paign managers to spread the impress sion that the Wilson Administration has been detrimental to the business interests of the country.
 While Chairman Lovett of the Un- ion Pacific, and President Underwood, of the Erie, were strongly endorsing the Democratic administration and ad- vocating the rel election of President Wilson, E. F.. Kearney, President of the Wabash Railroad, was exposing the faIlacy of Republican claims that present prosperity is temporary and caused by the war.
 Instead of accepting the theory that a Democratic tariff was ruining the country, President Kearney says: Prosperity was on its way when the European war broke out, and the war is not tho cause of the great business in the United States, but only served to hastenIit I expect to see the boom keep up, even though the war should end tomorrow.
 ''The Wabash Is doing wonderfully well and this is the greatest year in it's history. The wonderful success that we have had has been encompassed through the layalty and enthusiasm of the employees along the line.''

 When cross, irritable, feverish or breath is bads stomach sour, look at the tongue, mother! If coated, give a teaspoonful of this harmless fruit laxative" and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. When it's little system is full of cold, throat sore. has stomach ache, diarrhoea, indigestion, colic-re- member, a good inside cleansing's should always be the first treatment given.
 Millions of mothers keep California Syrup of Figs handy; they know a teaspoonful today saves a sick child Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of California Syrup of Figs, which has directions for babies, children of all ages and grown-ups printed on the bottle.

And the tremendous diHr culties which have been overcome by private capital in the establishment of these great plants, have at last placed them upon a producing basis which would prove them to be of in-
 estimable value to the nation in case of sudden war. For only now have they begun to produce in sufficient quantity to assure the arming of large numbers of men in case of war. Yet they have not up to the present time reached the height of their full efficiency in this respect. To those who are in a position to fully com prehend and realize this fact. the yaporings of those who are even now telling our citizens throughout the land what they would have done had they been in the place of President Wilson when the Lusitania was sunk, would prove amusing were 1t not for the false position in which they place our country in the minds of other nations through such talk.

MEXICO PLANS
 TO REBUILD HER LOST INDUSTRIES
Inexhaustible Shale Depos- it's Will Furnish Material
 for Cement.

Jaurez, Mexico, Oct 1S.-Mexico plaris to rebuild her revolution-shat- tered industries upon a firm founda- ton. With the restoration of peace in the Republic the thousands of fac tories, mills, shops and stores which have been burned, wrecked or partial Ivy destroyed by artillery fire or by the work of the bombing crew which are always d part of a Mexican army in the field, are to be rebuilt.
 The representatives of a large Pa cific Coast cement manufacturing company recently visited Andres Gar cfa, inspector general of consulates for the Carranza government and General FFancisco Gonzales, ,comman- der of the Juarez garrison, and con- suited with them regarding the erec- ton of . $1,00p,000 cement plant in Jaurez to utiliz4 the great shale beds which are to be found at the foot of the Janrez mountains This material has been tested and found to be good for cement making The supply Is said by experts to be inexhaustible and the shale beds are located near enough to the railroad to make haul age costs low
 The representatives of the American cement company Is being given every encouragement by the Carranza off, cials They realize the importance of having such a plant on the border where its product can be shipped to all points in the interior at a low cost. While many of the Buildings in Mexi- ce axe built of adobe, the larger build ings arc made of brick and stone, concrete having been little used in construction work ins the interior be cause of the comparative scarcity of cement With the construction of a plant to manufacture cement here, many Mexican latborersl who are now forced to so to the United States in search of employment will be employ ed and, because of the lower cost of labor in this country, it will be pos sbbls to sell the finished product of the pxAat at a. much lower rate than that prevailing in the United States.

Chicago, Oct. 18-Chjcago today has more qualified voters than any other city in the country, the total of men and women on the registration books being 808,728, or more than 10000 in excess of New York's registration.
 Complete returns today from the registration yesterday. the last reg istration day before the coming presi- dential election, show that 504, 4,467 men and 304.261 women are now en- rolled.
 Political managers of all parties expressed surprise at the registration of women which had been estimated at only 300, ,000 for the entire state. If returns from outside of Chicago show the same enthusiasm among women to register, as in this city, it is estimated that 500.000 of that sex will be entitled to vote in Illinois for President, Nov. '. The total regis tration of men and women in the en- tire state is expected to be more than 1,9oo.00O.

Forestry Bureau
 Finds Relief From

waahinxton, Oct 1s.-Relief from ta1e critical newspr4nt paper situation seems probable from studies made in the Forest Service IAboratories
 It has been found that good grades of paper can be made from a number of Western woods which experts es- tfmate can be cut into chips, dried, ba1ed and delivered to mills in Wis constn at very small advance over the cost of chips made there from To- cal timber.
 The only factor blocking the way seems to be freight rates and the Wis consin mills are endeavoring to ne- 8utiate with the railroads for ship ment of experimental trainloads of chips from the West If a favorable freight rate can be obtained, Forest Service experts says, the great qua.n- ttty of pu7pwood on the National For ests slaou1d pruve a considerable fac tor in supplying favorably located pa per mills with the necessary raw ma- teris1 In Wisconsin alone, 1t Is stat cd, there 1s an an annual market for more than 3e0,00o cords of pulpwood
