War Measures
Before Council

A special session of the city
council was called for Thursday
afternoon to pass two ordinances
drawn up by the Tacoma branch
of the national council of defense.
The first ordinance provides for
medical examination of all per-
sons arrested by the police and
quarantining of all diseased men
and women
The second provides that pri-
vate watchmen shall be retained
to guard all supplies OF bread
stuffs in the city. 1t means that
watchmen, under police supervi-
sion, will guard every warehouse
on the waterfront, and all other
places where wheat or flour are
stored.
The ordinance was recommend
ed by the U. s. government.

efficient fighting machine.
"Officers and men Of this COM
mand cannot under any circumr
stances devote hteir time to mix
ing up in any way, shape or man
ner in affairs properly within
the province Of the civil authori-
ties. The needs of the national

Their statements concerning the
moral conditions in Seattle until
that city is cleaned up to the sat-
isfaction of the war department.
In effect, the announcement
said that further talk and dick
ering for a way GU is useless;
Seattle must act if 1t wants to
get the ban removed.
The statement, which he de-
clared was positively the last
one he would give to the news
papers or to the public, branded
as falsehood the report spread in
Seattle, said to have originated
with Judge George Donworth,
that he had refused to consider
Judge Kenneth Macintosh as
chief of police.

Irons Won't Fool With Seattle!

"As has been stated before,
when Seattle has been cleaned up
to the satisfaction of the war de-
partment, the conditions imposed
by general orders So. which for
bid officers and men from visit
ing Seattle, will be revoked, and
not until then will the question
be reOpened or considered by the
commanding general.
In this connection 1t may be
said that General Irons was not
requested to talk over the situa-
ton with Judge Macintosh. Judge
Donworth was one of a commit
tee of five citizens of Tacoma and
Seattle which came to discuss diff
ferent Matters"

Pease Store Sold.

J. A. Jetsinga, the pioneer Pease
merchant, has disposed of his general
merchandise store to E. s. Starken-
burg.
Mr.. Jetsinga began business in
Pease on Dec. q, 1901, and did well
from the first. Being good business
man, he enlarged his store to meet
the demands of his trade, but in May
1906, fire destroyed his building and
wiped out his stock. Although insur-
ance was carried the loss was consid-
erable> A new building was erected
that year and new stock Of goods
purchased. Square-deal methods were
rewarded and Mr.. Jetsinga has met
with deserved success. We do not
know his plans for the future, but
wish him we'll.
The new proprietor is no stranger
to the people of Pease and vicinity.
He has won the confidence and re-
spect Of all, and we have no doubt
but that the business will continue to
grow and prosper under him.

Likely to Pass.

A tonnage tax or mined iron ore is
quite likely to pass at the present
legislative session. The iron ore inter
ests may be expected to put up a Wig
orous fight until the law shall finally
be declared constitutional by the court
Of last resort. Unlike farm, the more
an iron mine is developed, the less it
is worth and when the ore is all gone
there remains nothing but hole in the
ground. It is no easy task to devise a
law under which such property can be
equitably taxed.-Springfield Free

What Is a Democrat?

From the Congressional Record one
sometimes finds quotable bits that
not be lost-that should be lifted by
some discriminating compiler into the
book shelves, Of lasting literature.
Such bit came the other day from
the floor of the house Of representa-
tives when David Lewis of Maryland
turned aside from his statistics on
parcel post to discuss for a moment
the question:: "What is democrat ?"
Said he: Byron, the poet, said De
mocracy--the devil was the first demo-
craft Qaughter), while enthusiastic de-
voices have declared that the first
democrat was the Carpenter of Nazar-
eth. Now, we democrats belong some
where between these extremes. Where
is it? Herbert Spencer declared de-
mocracy to be the ultimate social
truth The truth is, my friends, de-
mocracy is difficult to define, because
it is not dogma nor a doctrine sus-
ceptible Of formal statement. It may
be better described as that great move
ment in history which has had for it's
object the elevation of the common
man. 1t is a world aspiration; not a
ritualistic profession, but cardinal
sympathy whose formulas change from
age to age. It's ruling thought, its UNI
varying purpose is, say, the eleva-
ton of the common man. It seeks the
temporal salvation Of the plain people
as religion seeks the spiritual saliva
ton Of us all. And let me say that a
democrat, indeed, may belong to any
party, may belong to any age; his car
dinal characteristic is sympathy with
the common man, and if he strives to
advance the movement, active through
out the ages, for the salvation Of the
plain man, then he is a democrat, how

Early Matching Brings Winter Eggs.
Washington, D. c., Feb. 21.-Early
Matching is the secret of winter egg
production, says specialists in the U.
S. Department of Agriculture. The
pullet that is Matched early natures
early and is ready to lay eggs in the
fall when the supply is scarcest and
prices highest. Chickens that are ex-
pected to be revenue producers for
their owners later in the year should
be out of their shells by April 80 at
the latest. If they are properly cared
for thereafter they will begin to lay
eggs at the very time that eggs are
most wanted. - ...
To great extent the poultrymen Of
the country have overlooked this sim
pie fact. For one thing, birds Matched
later in the spring or summer are not
inclined to become broody until late
the following season and thus an I'M
profitable circle is formed. Each year
pullets mature too late to produce in
the fall and winter, and they sit too
late for their offspring to do any bet
ter. The poultry man who wishes to
get really good returns from his flock
must break this circle. ~9 .~a
The growing use of incubators has
made this comparatively easier. There
is no reason why incubators should
not be filled in March and early April
and the Matching over before May 1.
If no incubator is available it may be
possible to secure broody hens in the
neighborhood. That they will repay
the trouble and expense necessary to
obtain them, is indicated by results at
the government poultry farm in Mary
land. There it is not unusual to get
a daily average of one egg for every
five hens throughout the fall and win
ter, and in some pens the average has
been as high as one egg for three
birds. If anything like this percentage
could be obtained on farms, the ordi
nary poultry farmer would derive real
benefit from the high prices which
eggs invariably bring for period
Of several months.

Roast Pig Chance For North Breeder.
With a vision of "roast pig" for his
fancy dinners, just as in the good old
days, M. J. Thompson, superintendent
of the Northeast experiment station at
Duluth sees new industry opening to
the farmers in the cut-over lands of
northern Minnesota in the production
of 20-pound pigs for sale. The method
| is the only one Mr.. Thompson sees of
making pork production profitable in
that section for time.
Two filters year must be produced
to make raising pigs profitable there,
as the cost Of keeping the sows is too
great for a single litter. The light
crops do not furnish enough feed for
fattening the fall litters, so Mr..
Thompson sees future in producing
pigs to be sold as roasters for the
Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
There is a growing tendency to sub
stitute pigs weighing from IL to 20
pounds of turkey on these days.
With the financial side of the roast
pig problem in mind, Mr.. Thompson
has just finished feeding and market
ing seven roast pigs. The seven pigs
were fed tankage, shorts and butter
milk worth $4.76 for twenty-four days,
when the seven gained 1913 pounds and
were sold at retail at 10 cents a pound,
yielding $3.50 for the $4.76 worth of
feed. The retail trade, he says, will
often pay as high as Is cents pound
live weight for these pigs and 20
cents pound for dressed weight.
Though the demand for these pigs
is not heavy, Mr.. Thompson believes
that it is very poorly supplied and that
the roast pigs offer chance for ad-
ditional profits from the swine indus
try in northern Minnesota. -.
