PUBLICATION or
BANS WOULD HELP

I'm my opinion tho ecclesiastical
custom requiring publication Of
bans for n reasonable tirns before
marriage Is a wise and saiutary
rule. Such a regulation enables a
third party, who may know OF some
good reason why a marriage should
not take place. 10 make that fact
known timely 10 tho parties inter.
cstcd."
Judge Talluian writes that no be.
lievcs tho bans should DO published
for 30 days In n newspaper.
He pn,lnues that.
lie does not believe women are
tho chief OF divorce because
OF their extravaganza and unreasou.
able demands:
Tho high standard OF living. dc.

not true.
Collision should not be accepted
as proper ground for divorce, even

FERRIES CUT RATES;
 SMALL TOWNS HURT

OLYMPIA, Aug. 27.-The depart ment of public works, Investigating ferry boat charges for carving au- tomobies and auto trucks, has found small communities along the Sound are suffering from unfair competi- tion more than had been reported. Many of these communities are cut off from communication by highways and are wholly dependent upon boats which the cut-rates of the ferries are driving off the runs. The de- partment is facing the necessity of finding some way of guaranteeing those small towns communication with theoutside world, while not do- ing any injustice to the people more favorably situated. An adjustment of rates for loaded and unloaded freight and passenger stages may meet the problem without doing any injury to either the ferries or the stage lines.

PINE CREEK DISTRICT
 IS SWEPT BY FLAMES

SPOKANE, Aug. 27.-A forest fire that suddenly sprang into life yester- day is sweeping down Pine Creek, in the Couer d'Alene mining district of northern Idaho and today was threat ening the new $1OO,OOo mill of the Amy Matchless mine and the village of Beeler.
 Efforts of 200 men fighting it's advance had succeeded in holding the fire away from mine property after it had approached within few hundred yards and burned one of two outlying buildings in Beeler.
 A quantity of lumber of the Pine Creek Lumber company, and surface workings of other mines in the vicin- ity, also were threatened by the fire, according to reports received here.

100000 horsepower for commercial
purposes.
4 better idea OF what these
figures mean is gained when one
understands that one hydraulic
horsepower is equal to about eight
tons OF coal energy.
Something like 40 per cent OF
our total possible horsepower is
TO be found in the states forming
the Pacific Coast division. Montana
apparently leads all other states
in water power possibilities as 8
per cent of the nations supply is
found within the borders OF that
commonwealth. New York State
possesses about per cent OF the
nations available amount.
Our lakes and streams possess
wealth of fabulous value and our
neglect to more thoroughly take
advantage Of our water power pos
sihiiities probably constitutes one
OF our greatest sources or ma
tional waste.
This country leads the nations
OF the world in potential water
power resources. In fact, about
50 per cent OF the worlds supply
may he found here. Canada ranks
second. China third and Russia
fourth.
As our nation grows in popula-
ton. and the cost Of mining and
Transporting coal becomes more
difficult and expensive 1t will be
necessary to draw more and more
upon our natural power supply.
It is within the range OF pos
sihilities that this great store
house Of wealth will as the years
go by become more and more q
contributing element to our Ia
tional leadership in the important
affairs OF mankind. 1t is a matter
of such far reaching consequence
that there should be no neglect OF
il through lack Of information or
understanding.
