Clara Kimball Young is at the
Arcade theatre tonight in Camille. /"
This, of course, is based upon
Alexandra Dumas great French
play, 'The Lady with the Camel
las" This play has given the great
est actresses Of two generations the
opportunity of appearing in a spec
tacular role, bringing out all of the
varied emotions which can be shown
on the stage. Camille is a light o.
love. She belongs to that class which
preys upon men, the type peculiarly
odious, in that she markets her
charms. Indeed, in the play, there is
a woman character who has lived
that life as young one, and then
in maturer years is the shrewd adj
visors Of her youngest sisters, who
prefer the life Of vice to that of vir-
tue.

SEEK MORE f:s. TO CAN
Increasing Demand for Product Has
Led to Inquiries a. to Where It
Can Be Had.

There is a perpetual and increas
Ing demand for canned fish of all
sorts. The utilization Of the dogfish
or graytish. as it Is more politely
called, has added to the OppOrtuni
ties Of the eastern Gamers, but those
on the Pacific coast are looking to the
westward for still further supply
The yellow and blue fin tuna (known
as the horse mackerel when they ap.
pear In eastern waters), the dolphin
and bonita are plentiful in Hawaiian
waters, and Pacific coast Gamers are
making inquiries as to the possibility
of securing catch large enough to
warrant the establishment Of can
ner'es on the islands.
The commercial fisheries Of Hawaii
are almost exclusively in the hands
OF the japanese. A few years ago
they formed small companies to oper-
ate hand-prOpelled sampans. These
brought the fish to the Hawaiian mar
kets, where the catch was sold at auc-
ton. The gasoline boats have taken
the place of those propelled by oars
or sails and these have steaming
radius of thousand miles. They are
equipped with ice chambers, 50 that
the fish may be kept from four to six
days.
Large corporations have been
formed. One company controls $50
japanese boats and another 40. The
tuna at present prices, retailing at 10
to 20 cents a pound, is too costly to
permit of canning with profit. The
bonita sells at cents or less and
might be used to advantage, as it is
very plentiful.
There is also a little sardine fish
that Is taken in great numbers. The
establishment of United States gar
risOns at or near Honolulu has
greatly increased the demand for
fish, but no survey has yet been made
which determines whether canneries
can be made commercially profitable

PRESIDENT OUTLINES prA
SONS FOR SELECTIVE COW
SCRIPTION,

Washington, April 22.-President
Wilson, in letter to Representative
Helvering Of Kansas, outlined in de-.
tail why he believes selective draf.
is preferable to the old volunteer
system.
The letter follows:
my Dear Mr.. Helvering: wei.
come the inquiry of your letter Of
April FL because l have realized The
truth of what you have to say from
my own observation, namely, that
what is meant to be understood BY
the selective draft is not generally
understood throughout the country.
1.-THE process of the draft is, I
think, very clearly set forth in he
bill drafted by the war department
and which so earnestly hope the
congress will adopt, but it is wortA
while to state the idea which under.
lies the bill a little more fully.
II took occasion the other day in
an address to the people of the
country to point out the many forms
of patriotic service that were open
to them and to emphasize the fact
that the military part Of the service
was by no means the only part, and
perhaps, all things considered, not
the most vital part. Our object is 4
mobilization of all the productive
and active forces in the nation and
their development to the highest
point Of cooperation and efficiency,
and the idea of the selective draft
is that those should be chosen for
service in the army who can be most
readily spared from the prosecution
of the other activities which the
country must engage in and ~
which it must devote great deal Of
its best energy and capacity.
CHOSE who feel that we are
turning away altogether from tt
volunteer system seem to forget
that some 100000 men will be need
ed to fill the ranks Of the regulaf
army and the national guard and
that a very great deal Of individual
enthusiasm lies there wide open.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON"

THE CLEARWATER REPUBLICAN,.
P. L. CIRCUIT. Owner and Publisher
A Bad Blunder.

Common sense ought to convince
anything about the topography Of
Clearwater county. that it will never
be for the interests of the people to
operate under a series of Highway
Districts. Latah and Nez Perez
counties are two more that by the
very nature of their topography can
not operate under highway districts.
1t was a bad blunder when we
voted to create these districts, and
wisdom ought to dictate an early re-
turn to the old county status For
as thingsnow stand very small por-
ton Of the county must bear the eX-
pense of maintaining practically ali
the roads in the entire county, roads
that timber companies r>Ist use 20
get supplies and men into their hold
inge during the fire fighting season,
but which, under the present mixup,
timber companies will help very lit
tie to maintain. To some degree the
entire county ought to help pay the
the cost of road maintenance and
construction out of these canyons,
since to some extent all the county is
interested in these canyon roads, and
in the bridges that span the Clear
water river within this county. Just
as the entire county of Nez Perez
has an interest in and should help
maintain the bridges acros the Clear
water and the Snake at Lewiston.
1t would be unfair to put Lewiston
in highway district, cutting it off
from the rest of the county, and tax
ing it for roads and bridges in which
all the county is interested.
The Orofino Highway District, as
organized. has all the expensive
grades, except the Greer grade, with
in the county. 1t has the bridge at
Orofino, now undergoing repairs to
the extent of several thousand dol
lars, and another at Ahsahka 1t has
the road up the North Fork, and all
but 'one road (tl1e Greer grade), that
permits one to get into the timber
areas of our county If the Orofino
Highway stands then the people who
are so unfortunate as to live in the
Orofino Highway district must be pre-
pared to pay such taxes as will crush
them. There is but one thing to do
ly as we can get a court to dissolve
it, and get back into the county.
