VIII Poison Rabbits

r. T., Jackson, of the United States
Biological Survey, is now at Butter
Creek conducting experiments which
will be used in killing rabbits, this
year if lack of snow prevents the use
of the old method of putting poison
ed alfalfa on the snow. Poisoned
Grain will be used in case the winter
is a mild one, says Fred Bennion,
county agent, with whom Mr.. Jackson
is cooperating in planning a rabbit ex-
termination campaign. Colonel J. f..
McNaught Of Hermiston and Ralph
Stanfield, of Echo, are leaders in the
project. Because of the mild winter
last year, poisoning did not prove ef-
fective and most of the determination
was done by sportsmen. Rabbits were
half grown early in February and were
very numerous. Mr.. Bennion plans a
series of meetings November IA, at
which time poison will be ordered.
Besides the territory covered last year,
tho poisoning campaign will extend
west of Pilot Rock, south of Nolin, and
into the Holdman and Juniper country.

A.E.L. KEEPS OUT
OF WORLD LABOR
Again Decides to Stand >by
Decision Not to Affiliate
With Federation.

BY the Associated. Press.
DENVER, Col. June S.-The execu-
tive council of the American Fedora
tion of Labor has again decided to
stand by it's announced decision not
to affiliate the American labor move
ment with the international Fed
Grafton of Trades Unions. it was
learned last night.
While on its way to this city in a
convention of the federation which
opens next week, the council drafted
!; communication declining for the
second time to heed the European
OrSanizationS appeal for membership
of American labor.
The council IN Cincinnati last month,
decided to refuse the invitation OF
the INTERNATIONAL. but withheld Its
reply.
The new communication, which will
be forwarded within the EeXt week,
will reiterate the councils position
that the socalistic program Of the
International must he modified. the
national autonomy of the American
federation guaranteed. and the sys-
TEN of dues must be revised If the
American labor movement is. to
affiliate.
The position taken by the council
in regard to utilization with th1 inter
national is expected to be an issue in
the convention, as several central
labor unions have announced their
intention to oppose the stand taken
by the federation's executive body
which began conferences today pre-
liminary to the opening of the con-
vention.

THE COST OF PROGRESS

From the days of Columbus
up to the present day the fight
has been on to conquer the ocean
and the air and thousands Of
lives have been lost in the train
of progress.
The destruction Of the giant
dirigible a few days ago result
ing in the death Of numbers OF
;men serves to impress upon the
world the precious cost Of the
progress Of the world. These
men who gave their lives in their
effort to conquer the air are truly
martyrsto progress and not just
, casualties Of every day life.
Thousands Of lives have already
been sacrificed in the effort to
navigate the air and no doubt
many more lives will be sacrificed
before it is made safe for general
use, yet such is the cost Of mod
ern day progress.
Nothing is ever accomplished
without sacrifice Of some kind,
be it in the every day life Of
man, or be it in the sciences.
s. The man who goes out to con-
quer business and accumulate a
fortune has many sacrifices to
make, as has the religious mis-
sionery who goes. out into the
lheathen lands to save souls. Of
ten the one loses his soul in the
struggle, while the latter may
j lose his life and find his soul.
All life is battle and struggle
and sacrife, but these sacrifices
are Justified and must be made if
! the world is to advance.

THE CAUSE FOR WHICH THEY
FOUGHT

The reunion Of the North Caro-
lima Confederate veterans now
being held in Durham recalls to
us the glory Of those far off
days Of sixty-one--sixt five when
the flower Of the South was in
arms in a cause which they be-
lieved to be right, and a cause
which to this day is being more
and more abused-that Of State s
rights. While no one in these
latter days believes a state should
have the right to secede from
the Union, for we are now, AMI
will be for all time, insolubly one,
Americans all, yet there is too
much enrOachment ON states
rights and too much centering
and Capitalization in the nation

The founders Of this graf ma

RUTH IS D|S0RGAN|zER
Gift of Ball to Boys as Home Run
Prize Upsets Youngsters'
Team Work.

CHICAGO, August 27.-Babe Ruth,
wrecker Of home-run statistics, has
just about wrecked the team play Of
the amateur nine Of the St. Joseph's
Athletic Club. Of Downers Grove. a
Chicago suburb. This team, composed
OF boys Of st. Joseph's parish, recently
was presented with a brand-new
league ball autographed by the home
run king.
II usually put my trade mark on
ball with Old Betsy" wrote Babe, in
forwarding the trophy to the boys in
whom he has taken particular in
terest.
Ruth suggested that the ball be used
to stimulate batting and that it be
awarded to the member Of the team
who made the greatest number Of
home runs.
Now the bunt and the sacrifice hit
are taboo. and every time a batter
comes up he thinks about Babes
prize, and tries to hit the ball over
the fence in approved Ruth style. Not
a base on balls has been accepted
since the Ruth trophy was received.
