DOMINION REVERTS TO PEACE
BASIS ON NEW YEARS DAY,
LIFTING WARTIME PROHIBI-
TION RESTRICTIONS.

Ottawa, Canada, Dec. 24.-Canada
will revert to a peace basis on Janu-
airy 1, according TO an official an
nouncement today in which the gov
ernment expressed the view that sal
though no proclamation has been is
sued declaring the war at an end,
war conditions long ago ceased to
exist"
Race track betting as conducted in
1917, and importation, manufacture,
and interprovincial trade in alcoholic
liquor will be among wartime re-
strictions to be lifted on New Years
Day, while orders -in-council to re-
main in force include control of pa.
per, pulp, sugar and coal, silver coin
age, trading with the enemy, gold
export, internment operations, great
el production in Indian reserves and
censorship.
Restrictions on the sale of liquor
imposed by provinces are not affect
eG by abrogation of the federal or
ders-in-council, but it is anticipated
that by the end of 1919 there will be
no restrictions on the importation of
liquor for personal use from one
province to the other. An existing
federal statute forbids liquor importa-
'tion into province for sale when such
sale is prohibited by the laws of the
province.

Government insurance has lapsed or
been cancelled may have until Decem-

NEW ELECTRIC
INSTRUMENT NEAR
LY COMPLETE
HUBBARD DECLARES MODEL
FOR EXHIBIT TO PATENT OF
FICE OFFIIALS Is HIS MOST
POWERFUL.

Seattle PIT believe that the in
strument / am now building and which
I expect to demonstrate at Washing
ton, D. c., before patent office officials,
will be the largest and most powerful
generator I have yet constructed" de
clared Alfred NJ. Hubbard, 10, Seattle
inventor of a device he calls an at
mospheric power generator, Sunday
afternoon.
Hubbard is now ready to place the
machine in operation as soon as ma
terial ordered from the East some
time ago, and delayed in transit, ar
rives. He expects to have the large
model in operation before the middle
of this week, and after Rev. William
E. Smith, physics professor of Seattle
college, has an opportunity to con-
Duct an exhaustive test of the device,
Hubbard has agreed that it will be
given a public demonstration.
"An invention which is destined so
completely to overtuln existing met
hods of power distribution cannot be
made public before patent rights are
absolutely secure" Hubbard said Sun
day. "While with inventions of minor
Importance greater chances might be
taken, the colossal possibilities of my
device make it unwise, my hackers
feel, to exhibit it prematurely."
Hubbard rested most of Sunday,
after spending few hours in his
rooms in the morning, putting the
finishing touches on the model and
making it ready to receive the parts
on their way from the East.

RESTRICTIONS ON
COAL REMOVED

Seattle, Wash, Dec. 24.-All re-
strictions on the movement Of coal or
coke by wagon or trucks have been re
moved by order of the regional coal
committee at Chicago, of which T. w.
Proctor is chairman, according to an
announcement made today by L. c.
Gilman, district director of the rail
road administration. Notification of
the action of the regional committee
was given the Seattle Chamber of
Commerce and the State Fuel Dealers
association here.
The order from the regional com
mttee indicates that the coal situ-
alton is rapidly returning to normal
and that coal may be purchased in
any quantities obtainable and delivered
without interference by government
orders. 1t is thought, however that
coal dealers will meet the demads of
those completely out of coal with
small lots until enough is procurable
to insure everyone being supplied
with fuel for immediate use. The or
der from the regional committee fol-
lows:
effective noon Thursday, Decem-
ber IS, 1919, all restrictions and regu-
lations on delivery of coal or coke by
wagon or trucks are withdrawn.

RETAILERS NOT AFFIXING
REVENUE STAMPS

information reaching the Collector
Of Internal Revenue indicates that 4
large number of grocery stores, drug
stores, cigar stores and small variety
stores are not affiXing proprietary
revenue stamps to cough drops, vase
line and other articles Of that nature
sold by them.
Dealers are reminded that the war
tax of one cent for each % cent or
fraction of 25 cents included in the
price for which toilet and proprietary
medicinal preparations are sold must
be paid by affixing to the articles the
proper proprietary stamps for the val
ue of which the purchaser is required
to reimburse the vendor at the time Of
sale, and that failure to observe these
requirements involves liability to
heavy penalties.
Proprietary stamps may be obtained
from postmasters or from the collector
of internal revenue. Stamp orders
mailed to the collector should be ac-
companied by money order or certified
check to cover.

Laborer Builds Organ.

That workingmen who are earning
big wages possess a grand piano or
even two pianos is evidence that a
love of music is one of the first pleas
ures INDUCED in when a man begins
TO have more money than he wants for
necessities.
I could tell you of a workingman
in a Midland town, who, being of a
musical and mechanical bent, has built
himself a small organ in his living
room. The instrument possesses a
reed stop and several pedal notes, and
is a marvellous piece of ingenuity.
As the family is a large one and
the room about II feet square, it can
be imagined what inconvenience the
family is willing TO undergo in order
to indulge its love of music. The or
gan fills about one-third of their only
living room.-London Chronicle.

A WORD TO DISABLED SOLDIERS

Every man who was in the military
OF naval service of the United States
during the late war, and who on ac-
count of such service is not physically
fitted to engage in a gainful occupa-
tion should at once notify the Bureau
of War Risk Insurance in Washing
ton, D. c.
Under the law this bureau is
charged with providing for service
men discharged because of disability
incurred in active service in the line of
duty, compensation and free medical
treatment until such time as they are
restored to physical fitness. During
the summer of 1918 there was gen
eral combing out of the military train
ing camps of the country in an effort
to bring up the standard of physical
fitness, and many men discharged at
that time may be unaware of their
rights under an act of Congress to
compensation for disability and medi-
cal attention and hospital treatment
where necessary. All cases of this or
a like nature should be brought i'm
mediately to the attention of the Bu-
reau of War Risk Insurance.

AGAINST WAGES FOR WIVES
Gathering of Women R.dicule the Idea,
Labelling 1t as "Commercializ-
inq the Home"

Wages for wives were turned down
by an audience largely of women here
the other night after debate on
whether husbands should be required
to pay such wages, says the Philadel-
phia Evening Bulletin.
One speaker drew a dismal picture
of the future of romance with wives
working for wages.
"Imagine scene like this" he said:
Honey, do you love me?"
"Of course love you"
"Then will you marry me?"
"Well, maybe. How much do you
pay?"
Suppose the wives were to join
the soviet of waiters-up and charge
triple wages for waiting up nights for
husbands" he said.
Imagine a wife going into society
and being labeled a $15-a-week wife. A
woman can take last-year hat and
make it look like new. But when she
signed a contract for S15 a week there
would be no hiding it from the neigh
bors"
Another speaker pleaded that "wom-
an shall not be brought down from her
pedestal as a queen and made a mere
employee of man" In depicting the
future of romance under the wage sys-
TEN he said the marriage ceremony
would have to be revised to read:
with this ring l hire thee, and will
pay thee Sl5 week by the aid of the
world, the flesh and the devil"
Notices like the following he pre-
dicted would be published:
"Married-John Brown and Mary
Smith, by Rev. Russell II. Conwell.
They will live in Logan and the wife's
wages will be SIS a week"
Scenes like the following in court
were forecast;
"Judge, he hired me for $50 week
and he is now two weeks overdue in
my pay. I'm going to get new boss"

WFNATCHEE VALLEY
LEADS IN APPLE PRO-
DUCTION;; BUMPER CROP
FEDERAL FRUIT CROP SPECIAL
lists ESTIM ATES CROP IN VAL
LEY AT 1850 CARS, WHICH is
BIG INCREASE OVER 1918.

The commercial apple crop for the
United States, now estimated at
26,174,00O barrels, by the fruit crop
specialists of the Federal Bureau of
Crop Estimates, has over run even the
most liberal estimates, particularly in
the far West. There has been an in
cresae of 1,75S, 900 barrels over the
November 1st estimate and this in
crease has occurred principally in the
box apple district.
1t is now estimated that the far
western or box apple states will pro-
duce 81, ,463, 900 boxes, or an increase of
1886, 900 boxes over the November
estimate, and 14,154, 900 boxes over
the crop of 1918.
'The commercial apple crop in the
State of Washington is now estimated
at 19,320,000 boxes or 25,556 cars.
This is an increase of 2,282 cars over
the November 1st estimate and 8,50S
cars more than last year. The Wen
atchee North Central Washington dist
rict, which is the leading center of
production, is now estimated at II 500
cars. On December 9Th about $500
cars were still left in this district to be
moved. Yakima Valley, including
Yakima and Benton counties, is esti-
mated at about 10000 cars. with $500
cars of this yet to move; Spokane dist
rict is estimated at / 500 cars, 1910 cars
yet to move; Walla Walla district
LOO cars, fifty yet to move. The
White Salmon district had over 400
cars, while Western Washington or the
coast district produced about 500 cars
in scattered localities. The crop in
the state generally was of the highest
quality, particularly in the Wenatchee
Valley, where Winesaps ran nearly 80
per cent extra fancy. 1t was neces-
sary to load considerable of the fruit
in box cars in some sections, in which
case the load often exceeded 756
boxes. At the present time, however,
all fruit not moved is safely in storage
OF protected. In addition to the fresh
fruit movement from Washington it is
estimated that about 10000 tons of
fresh apples went to the by-products
plants within the state. About $4,000
tons of this by-product fruit originated
in the Yakima Valley"
"Oregon is now estimated at 1886
cars. As in Washington, the fruit was
of the highest quality, particularly in
the Hood River Valley. The Hood
River crop it is estimated viii exceed
100000 boxes as compared with
1,350,000 boxes last year.
. "The Idaho crop is now estimated at
about 4,762 cars, or an increase of
1928 cars over the bumper crop of
1917.
"The California crop is estimated at
9S per cent of full crop, or 4,533,00O
boxes. &C. S. Ray, Field Agent.

YOUNG BURGLARS
CAUGHT RED-HANDED
AT X. & Y. B. HDW.
TWO MORE OF THE GENUS BUR-
CLAIR PESTIFEROUS LAND
ED IN THE CITY BASTILE.
HEARING SET FOR TOMORROW.

Two burglars entered the K. & V.
B. Hardware store at this place
Christmas night and now languish in
the city Jail awaiting hearing which
is set for tomorrow before Justice
Day.
The burglars showed up about IL
o'clock and by removing pane Of
glass at the back of the store got in
side and then by removing another
glass from an inside window gained
entrance to the main store. F. w.
Spencer, an employee of the ore,who
has been sleeping there, heard them
and was ready with a gun awaiting a
favorable opportunity to get the drop
on them. When they had reached the
show cases and provided themselves
with fashlight each, Spencer turned
on the electric lights and covered
them with his gun. The rest was
easy. The burglars, two fellows
about nineteen or twenty, threw up
their hands without waiting to be
told to, and Mr.. Spencer had them
marched to the lookup.
The boys say they are from Sno-
homish. They sure are in dutch.
Breaking into house or store is a
serious offense and they will no
doubt draw not less than a couple of
years. If they are under age, and
such is proven, we understand they
will be sent to the reformatory in
case of conviction.
