Asking that the Tacoma Rail-
way & Power Co. and the striking
street car men of Tacoma meet on
the common ground of arbitration
and settle their differences in a
modern, friendly manner, H. Roy
Harrison, secretary of the Tacoma
Central Labor council has address,
ed the following interesting let'er
to the street railway company:

The changes of the pas 25
years. socially, industrially and
economically have been a matter
of wonder, yet they are infinitis-
NAL compared to the changes that
will take place during the next
decade.
This advance is inevitable, be-
cause of our e --ational system,
which teaches the worker to think.
1t is inevitable owing to our pres
ent mode of comm unication be-
tween the workingmen of differ
ent communities. 1t inevitable be-
cause 1t gives stability to business
and it is as advantageous to capt.
tai as to labor.
Money Making First
Money making has been the
one all-absorbipg occupation in
this country for the last so wears.
Glorification of the (Almiehty
Dollar man; acquisition of wealth
simply for the sake of possessing
it, and many other foibles that
have held the world enslaved for
years will be swallowed up in this
great tide Of evolution. The work
ingman has not been indifferent
to this state of affairs, as can be
seen in the efforts to organize:
as the development of our re-
sources were being performed, in
Vulnerable hardships were endur-
ed, but there still remained that
great solace to those who were
compelled to undergo these hard
ships, that as American citizens
they enjoyed the right of being
free men with the privilege of
joining such societies. or organiza-
lions as they saw fit.
But the demons of power are
insidiously and persistently en-
deavoring with all their weapon 3
of prejudice. sophistry, and vile
contumely to deprive the worker
of this inherent right, guaranteed
In the Ireamble of the constitu-
ton. which is the essence of the
Declaration of Independence.
Corporations Arise
Corporations, the creatures OF
our legislative bodies, sprang in
to existence about the close of the
Civil war, and though humble and
sycopantic in their professions of
what good they could be to the
people at large, have az they ac-
cumulated the sources OF natural
wealth, insidiously undermined
the rights and liberties of the
worker. Through the aid of hired
hirelings, too weak in mind to
recognize the meaning of the
word JUSTICE they have to a
certain extent destroyed the guar
antees of the Bill of Rights of
the constitution.
THE hope of our citizens lies
not alone In the splendid struggle
of the organized masses for JUS

COLD PACK CANNING
By Cynthia Grey.

BY cold pack canning many
vegetables may be preserved for
winter which cannot be put up
successfully by the original open
kettle or old fashioned stewing
process.
/ Cold pack canning is a simple
and quick method and the house
keeper who tries 1t seldom re-
turns TO the way mother did. II
works on the principle Of the
water bath, or double boiler.
A homemade coldpack canning
outfit may be had by using a
wash boiler, lard can, tin pail or
any utensil which has fitted
cover. A rack made of strips OF
board, lath or wire netting Is re-
quired to raise the jars at least
one inch from the boiler. Handles
at the ends of the rack are desir-
able. Excellent wire racks shaped
to fit wash boilers cost about So.
In cold pack canning, the jars
are filled with cold uncooked food
and syrup (for fruit), or salt and
water (for vegetables) Then

then sterihzed by boiling, ranging
from 16 minutes for berries to
$50 minutes for sweet corn.
After sterilization, the covers
are frightened. Careful house
wives usually invert the cans to
cool. Some cover the edges OF
the rubbers and tops with melted
parrafin and wrap the Jars in pa
per before storing.
The advantages OF the cold pack
method over the old fashioned
open kettle method are 1t is
adapted to all fruits and vegeta-
bles; 1t produces a more uniform
product with better color, better
flavor and better shape; and 1t
saves time and labor, and is there
fore a genuine economy.

The new board of supervisors viii
convene this evening for its first GUS

between the Bourbons and the Repub-

urday evening, July Z, aside from be-
ing an unusually accomplished and de-
ightful singer, is rapidly becoming
known as q composer, having several
successes to her credit. Her favorite
composition (which has already
reached the u, 900 mark IN. the .statesJ,
Is her song Isles of Aloha the aylic
Of which il q real tribute to the
islands, the melody being equally de-
scriptiye. There have been many So
called "Hawaiian" songs which have
absolutely no bearing on Hawaii, and
which In many instances give a false
and unWholesome impression, and
Miss Dietrich deserves a great deal
Of credit for her effort to give a cor
rect idea Of the manifold beauties
and charm of the islands and to dis
pei the popular fancy that Hawaii is

In grass skirts. 49,.
Miss Dietrich, who in private life
Is Mrs. Horace Wright, spent several
weeks In the islands, a little over two
years ago, and both she and her hus-
band were so infatuated with Hawaii
that they decided that as soon as an
opportunity presented itself they
would come back" for longer gtay.
They arrived here couple of weeks
ago and have taken cottage On the
beach for the summer. They intended
to have, as Miss Dietrich put it, "a
real honest to goodness holiday" but
were induced by their many friends to
give an evening at the Laniakea, so

usually attractive and entertaining
program. Frank Moss will accompany
