FAMOUS TREES REGISTERED IN
 HALL OF FAME

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 (by Asso- ciatad Press).-The only tree known to have been planted in memory of Abraham Lincoln right after his as sassination has been nominated for a place ill the Hall of Fame for 'trees with a history" which the American Forestry Association is compiling. A. s. Bailey of Decorah, Iowa, where the tree now stands, in formed the association that the tree was planted by one John Finn, who is still living.
 When Abraham Lincoln was assasin- ated MT. Finn was in Chicago and he returned home much depressed. A few days later, on April 27, 1865, 60vernor Stone of Iowa declared a day of mourning for Lincoln. Finn went into the woods and dug up a small hackberry shoot which he trans planted on the street in front of his home The shoot took root and to- day is one of the most magnificent trees in Iowa. It is no feet in height and nearly 12 feet in circumference to which facts the American Pores try Association points as a great les son in what can be done in tree planting.
 The Daughters of the American Revolution, the Grand Army of the Republic and historical socities of many other trees with a history to the American Forestry Association. Other nominations for the Hall of Fame are:

 The San Diego mission palm, nom. mated by T. P. Getz. This is the only one remaining of the four plant ed in 1769. Two were sent to the Chicago Worlds Fair in 1892 and a third was blown down in 1913.

the most he could ask OF the Repub-
lican politicians, with any hope Of get
ting 1t, was the assistant secretaryship
of the navy. The entire administration
sighed with relief when at last he went
off to lead his PORCH Riders.
In five months he was back from
Cuba in the far more troublesome role
of popular hero. The New York ma
chine was in such sore need Of good
name to pull it through the pending
election that it met him Mt the wharf
and humbly laid at his feet the Repub-
lican nomination for governor. But in
the governorship, he realized the worst
fears of Boss Plat. that he harbOred,
as the boss naively wrote him, "vari-
Gus altruistic ideas,"' and that he was
"a little loose on the relations Of capt.
tai and labor, on trusts and combina-
lions and -. .. the right of man
to run his own business in his own
way" F.
The only thing to do with this wild
engine was to turn the switch and
shunt it on to the side track of the
vice presidency. Roosevelt loudly pro-
tested that he wanted to be reelected
governor. And while Plat was trying
to push him on to the national ticket,
Mckinley and Hanna just as earnestly
tried to push him back on to P}att.
The Republican national>> convention
rose up and roared his nomination,
flinging him, in spite Of himself, upon
the tide that led to fortune.

entirely different standards for meas
uring men.
Roosevelt cut his eye teeth In polit-
ical leadership in the corrupt ma
chine-run legislature Of New York. He
could not have chosen more thor
ough school for instruction In the hid
den, muddy springs Of parties and pol
itics. His. experience at Albany put
realism into his idealism and made
the academic reformer over into the
most Intensely practical politician we
have had in the presidency.
He decided at the outset to act in
each Office as If it was to be the last
, that he ever would get, and for nearly
US years after he left the legislature,
Roosevelt could not have been
elected to anything in the boss-ridden
state Of New York. For long time
he was "shelved' on the civil service
commission at Washington, until re-
form mayor of New York appointed
him on the four-headed police commits
sion; but it was soon single-headed so
far as the public could see, and that
head was fu!! of teeth for police graft

Man Who Begin Life as a. Prairie

1t is probable that Walter Turner
was the worlds most prolific inventor.
Starting life as a shepherd on a
prairie sheep ranch in the far West
he knew nothing Of the mechanics Of
railway engineering. One. day, how
ever, while tending his sheep on the
prairie in the neighborhood of rail-
way, Turner came TO- where the ruins
Of q train were scattered, and among
the fragments he picked up as curl
osity vital part Of the Westinghouse
brake. This he was allowed to carry
away During his lonely life on the
prairie he would ponder over the
mechanism of this brake. His chance
came when, having failed as sheep
farmer, he got job as q wheel Taper
on the railway, ultimately being pro-
noted to the engine shops. A series
Of inventions, improving brakes pat
ented by the company, led to his fur

carriages; Turner improved it till It
would control a hundred. When he
died it was said that the value of the

WOOL GROWERS ARE TO
 CROWD OUT MlDDLEMEN

Boston, Feb. 26.-WooI growers are organizing to save for themselves and for wearers of woolen garments mil lions of dollars now absorbed by mid dlemen, Milo D. Campbell of Cold water, Mich, said in an address be- fore the City club tonight.
 Mr. Campbell, who is president Of the National Milk Producers Federa- ton ard chairman of the executive committee of the National Board of Farmer Organizations, spoke of the Bos!cn Wool Dealers association as collecting the greater part of the wool from the fifty million sheep in the country. "A mere technical camou- tiage, they buy the wool of the farmer o1 local dealer in the grease, and sell 't to the mills as secured wool" he Said. "The wool has not been secured by them. It goes to the mills as it cones1 from the sheep.
 "I shall not enter into a discussion of the treatment accorded the farmers of the nation by the government in handling the 1918 wool clip, but I am here to give notice that the wool growers of the country have learned by sore experience how to organize and how to deal directly with the rcilIs without building fortunes each year fer these who neither toll nor spin"

SENATE READCPTs TREATY
 MANDATUKT RESERVATION

Washington, Feb. 26.-The republi- can reservation regarding manda- torres, attached to lne peace treaty last November over the opposition of S3 uemocratIc senator's, was reauopted b1 vote Of 6S to I in the senate to- d:iy after the administration leaders had withdrawn their opposition to it.
 It was the first time a qualification of the treaty had been adopted with the acquisScence of the democratic managerseand the first time more than two-tnlrds of the entire senate mem be. ship had voted together in approv- ing any reservation. The result was not generally regarded as indicating a sudden break in the senate situation, however, since the reservation was one of those to which the democrats had agreed in the recent bipartisan conference to accept without change.
 Thirty democrats and thirty eight republicans were recorded in favor of the reservation after Senator Hitch cock, the democratic leader, had de- clared on the floor that the effect would be only to recite a principle al- ready established under the treaty it. sait and under federal laws. It pro woes in substance that no mandate eotj1 be accepted by the United States without the consent of con- gress.
 The four who voted in the negative were Senators Jones, New Mexico. K,i drick, Wyoming; Walsh. Montana anu Williams, Mississippi, all demo- crats. Explaining his vote, Senator Walsh declared he had mot the slightest objection to the reservation except that If is unnecessary." Sen ator Hitchcock did not vote.
