boys IL ito 18 years old and COM
plants from teachers and parents,
warrant the statement that from SO
to 30 per cent OF the boys of school
age. seven years old and up, are
smoking cigarettes: that wholesale
and retail houses are handling them
and that cigarettes have been widely
sold; that boys buy them: that cigar

PAVING
TO new PLANT
Conference Held at City
Hall to Discuss Posi-
bilities.

Committees from the Commercial
club. and the Northern Packing
company met late this afternoon with
the streets and alleys committee Of
the city council t discuss the ques-
ton of paving the streets and roads
leading to the packing plant.
Only part Of these thoroughfares lie
within the city limits, and the re-
mainder comes under the jurisdiction
Of the board Of county commissioners.
The packing plant and Commercial
club committees wish to have the
streets within the city limits paved,
but there is a question If this can be
done. 1t appears to be out Of the
question to have the work done by
the ordinary assessment methods, as
this would practically confiscate the
property lying along the streets in
volved.
An effort is being made to find a
way out Of the difficulty, and secure
the improvement on the streets lead
ing to the plant. .

during the dinner. The banquet as
we'll as all other meetings Of the lum-
bermen here was marked by the en-
thusiasm displayed.
Ffisbie Was TOastmaster.
c. O.. Frisbie, president Of the Cor
nell Wood Products Co., was named
POSTMASTER and conducted his office
in a smooth and entertaining man
ner. He opened the series of .toasts
responded to by. several Of the men,
with a rapid fire Of humorous stories
that put the men in an even moro
jovial frame Of mind.
Mr.. Frisbie dealt with the proposed
enlargement Of the United States
merchant marine and predicted an
enormous growth in the power Of the
country and her merchant feet.
After citing statistics that showed
projects in this country during a span
of several years he took up the mat
ter of construction cost in building.
In speaking, Mr.. Frisbie stated that
lit was his belief that with present
conditions and the prospective situa-
ton no hope Of reduced cost of con-
st-uction could be offered.
Build and build now" he urgei.
and, strongly supported the "own
eminent. In urging this he showed
how the cost of materials is advance
ing and declared that there would
never be a reduction in the cost OF
building until wages have been re-
duced.
A representative of the Cornell
Wood Products Co. gave a brief talk
explaining the value and uses of the
Cornell Wood Poard in building, re-
modelling or repairing buildings. He
told CT the increasing popularity o.
the wood board and how the govern
ment had used millions of feet of II
tfcr construction purposes.

LEClSLATE THEM OUT

Among the-reports that are in circulation concernins
the course to be pursued toward three Of the state Off
cials who have given offense to the managers Of the
Tcwnley combination. It said that the impeachment pros
cess. concerning which threats have been made from time
to time, is not regarded with unmixed approval. It is
to be taken for granted that if Townley and his llcuten-
ants coula~get LANCER, Hall and Koeitzky removed from
office by Impeding them, impeachment would be under
taken in short order. But Impeachment is a rather cum
bsrsone process, ana is necessarily attended with q good
deal Of publicity. The accused officials would be entitled
to an opportunity to state their case. and no matter what
tho result OF the trial might be. facts might come to light
which the Town1ey group would prefer not to have
brought into too strong light. Then there can be no GER
tainty about the issue Of the trial itself. In such a case
the senate Is the trial body, and it takes two thirds OF the
membership to convict. There might be enough men. in
the senate who would Insist on a measure Of fairness to
prevent conviction on trumped-up charges, and would re-
quire more facts than the prosecution would be prepared
to present. It would be unpleasant for the bosses to have
their prosecution fall flat. Hence there is doubt about
the impeachment as 4 means Of permanent removal.
Another plan has been suggested. It is for the legis-
lature to be. called into extra session, and to have the Of
tending officials inpeached. Then it Is proposed that the
legislature shall adjourn, leaving the defendants. so to
speak, up in the air. An impcached official cannot exer-
else the duties Of his office until he is acquitted, therefore
it is maintained that the governor could fill these places
with men or ms own choosing, and everything will be
lovely.
It IL possible that constitutional objections might pre-
vent the carrying out Of this plan. It would at least be
doubtful. But we beg to offer another, which would work
with certainty and dispatch. provided the Townley ma
chine can rely on a majority vote in each house for any
thing which it chooses to put over.
Let tho legislature meet and enact new laws trans
ferring to new boards or commissions all the important
duties now performed by the attorney general, the secrc-
tarp Of state and the state auditor. The officials to be en-.
trusted with the duties can be appointed by the governor,
and the desired object will be achieved. ss
1t may be objected that the constitution provided
what the duties of these officials are to be. The consti-
tuition has something to say about the duties of the SUI
perdntendent of public instruction, and a way has been
found around that. 1t would be a reflection on the cum
ming Of the leagues lawyers to say that they are not able
to find a way around anything that happens to be in the
constitution of the state. -- &

He touched her finally. "Marlc?"

Let me be- she said duly.
Marie, If it means SO much to you,
why haven't you gone into Laclasse-
to st. Cecilia's-to any Ii of the
Catholic churches?'
She shrank, then drew herself up.
What is it to you, whether 1 pray or
not?' she muttered sullenly.
She twisted herself off the couch
and went to the door, looking not at
him. but at the crucifix. Her face was
still gray. She crossed herself before
she shut herself out.
Mendall looked after her, then at
the crucif1x, and then he sat down on
the couch, his brows still raised in
surprise. '
well, / never!' he said.
He sat for a long time in thought.
If it were possible to accuse Marie Of
acting, he would have done so, but
that was out of the question. She had

was when, several weeks before, she
had paled at sight of the ~jungle-pool.
