The SUCCESS OF the sixth annual exhi-

lists, which closed in New York this week,
Is an indication, say the Independents.
that the American art barometer Is ris-
ing. Tho three weeks exhibition at the
Waldorf Astoria was attended by several
thousand more people than had attended
any previous exhibition of the society
Twenty-one WORKS of art were sold as
against fifteen in 1921.
And to meet this rising tide OF popu-
lar interest and approval a flood OF
artistic talent is coming from all parts Of
the country. From all over America

my life until the Tuesday private
view Of this week, and one sandwich

name. And besides, we are getting
nearer and nearer to discussion OF
Mr.. Pennell's work.
Was an ILLUSTRATOR.
He was then, in those good old days,
an illustrator. Edwin A. Abbey and
c. s. .Reinhardt were the particular
giants who compelled us to buy Hdr-
pey's and Century each month, and
Mr.. Pennell used to impress us enor-
mousiy with his drawings OF catiie-s
drals. The likes of these men as illus-
traitors have not been seen since.
Abbey and Reinhardt never thought
of ap.ng the manners of other illus
traitors, since they had no rivals any
where In the world and occupied
themselves with trying to bring the
ers into the art of illustration.
Mr.. Pennell, too, was free from tie
embarrassment Of rival pen and ink
artists in landscape. He painted" as
we used to like to say, with the pen
from nature and later on used to vary
his effects by doing things in the man
ner OF old prints or like etchings--
but never stopped, as so many of our
contemporary young men do to copy
ing the ideas OF his fellows. The
originals of his Illustrations. which
were frequently shown, lacked some
thing or the charm of the Abbey and
Reinhardt drawings. as they were not
so complete In themselves. Mr.. PEN
nell was more conscious OF the
mechanisms of reproduction than the
other two men werc and allowed too
muck for them--to his own detriment.
The result was that the engraved cut
was the finished thing and the actual
drawing was merely station on the
way to it.

FISHERMEN ARE HopEFwUL

ASTORIA, July 29.-With the purse
seine menace disposed of and a
change in the tides now due, fisher
men of the lower Columbia are more
hopeful of securing better catches. Il
is estimated that so per cent of the
entire pack of last year was caught by
purse seiners operating off the CO.
lunnbia river, and fishermen conclude
that larger catch by the gillnetters
will be- the result of a ban placed upon
the purse seiners
The action of the federal court in
regard to the BLACK feet" caused a
change in the spirit of the gillnetters.
Many of them were preparing to dis
pose of their gear and quit the bust
ness, but they have decided to remain
during the rest of the season.
The launch PHOENIX will remain on
duty to see that none of the illegal
craft operates inside the three-mile
limit, and will make regular trips out
side to keep an eye on the fleet In
the opinion of those connected with
the fishing industry, the purse seiners
cannot oprate profitably outside the
three mile limit.

ExPECT PASSAGE BY AUG.a15

WASHINGTON. July 2S.-Prospects
for passage of the tariff bill about Au-
gust 10, were made bright today by
announcement from the democratic
members of the finance committee
that they will offer no further or
ganized opposition to the bill, which
has been before the senate since April
20.
The democratic members decided in
conference to. concentrate their OPP
position hencefofth on attempts to
amend the administration provisions
of the bill and to make little resist
dnce to the other schedules which re-
main to be considered. There will be
some amendments offered to the wool
and silk schedules and TO the duties on
"sundries," after which attention will
be given to amendments to enlarge the
powers of the tariff commission to
give it power to investigate tariff
conditions and adjust rates.

SALT LAKE CITY TOLD
Of THE ROUNDUP

Scores of business men in Colorado
Springs, Colorado, and Salt Lake City,
Utah, and hundreds of tourists in the
Colorado and Utah territory have
heard the story of the Pendleton
Roundup and have received an fnvi-
tation to attend, during the past week,
as part of the 5000 mile publicity
campaign which is being conducted
this summer by Art Rudd.
Since the beginning of the tour
July 10, publicity matter has been left
in a score or more auto camps. in two
state captols, in half a hundred of
the biggest tourist hotels of the west,
including the Brown Palace in Den-
yer, the Broadmore in Colorado
Springs, the Utah and Newhouse in
Salt Lake and The Reed in Ogden.
Kiwanis, Rotary and Progressive
clubs in several of the larger cities
have been reached and the famous
Roundup invitation extended to the
members.
Work is being carried on this week
in the Idaho country, the main towns
to be reached being Pocatello, Weiser
and Boise.
A feature of the Utah campaign was
the circulation of the Roundup liter
ature among the visitors at the great
Mormon Tabernacle I'M Salt Lake and
at Saltair pleasure resort.
President Barnes of the Pixies Peak
Rodeo at Colorado Springs, has visited
both the Pendleton show and the
Cheyenne attempt and is quoted in
one of the Colorado Springs papers as
saying that the Pendleton Roundup
is undoubtedly the best wild west epic
he has ever seen, according to report
received at headquarters this morn
ing.

WHALES ARE NUMEROUS

ABERDEEN, Wash, July 2S.-
Seventy-three whales have been land
ed this season at the Pacific American
Whaling companys Bay City plant.
The catch is larger than the average
for this period of the season, but n
little smaller than the catch in 1920,
the banner year, for the Bay City
plant. This season was five weeks
late in opening and much foggy
weather has been encountered.
Weather conditions, however, are now
ideal, with whales plentiful. It is ex-
pected the number taken will be larg-
er than in 1920.
