An exposition of Irrigated farm and forest products, covering over 100 000 square feet, is being held tn connection with the congress and forms a remarkable object lesson of what has already been accomplished In the reclamation of the arid and Bern 1 -arid portions of the country. A notable feature of the congress will be the discussion of the report of a committee appointed at last year's meeting In Sacramento, relat ive to the desirability of organizing an international congress having a broader and more comprehensive scope and covering all matters touch ing the conservation and use of nat ural resources of all the countries Those swell new Sweater Coats that we've been expecting for the past ten days are here at last We think they're by far the handsomest we've ever seen.

White Plague's Harvest. WASHINGTON. Sept. 29. "The great 'white plague' costs the peo ple of the civilized world $1,000, 000,000 a year," was the statement made today by Professor Irving Fish er, of Yale University, in a paper read at the International tubercul osis congress. Prof. Fisher esti mates that consumption ill Is uu an average of 138,000 a year n Am erica alone. He declared that 6, 000,000 persons in this country are doomed to Mil consumptives' graveF and that by their deaths 20,000,000 more people would be rendered mis erable. Calls Surveyors Together.

INDUSTRIAL TRAINING FOR 1 SERVING OUR FUTURE. 'RE- As Ftlsmarek believed, for he was wont to say "Wer die Schule hat hat die Zukunft," (Who has the schools has the ruture). The man who weld ed the empire together, using blood and iron In the process, was a great admirer of education. He had read history. Its best revelations were the works of its schoolmasters. It was the work of Vater Jahn, Stem and Schamherst, as schoolmasters, that had made Bismarck, Von Moltke, the Kaiser and the Hohenzol lern empire possible. They had pre pared the blood and iron out of which the empire was built and they did It by means of a Spartan-like educa tion In discipline. The great Chan cellor was only partly right. Not Sweater Coats For Men Moderately Priced-43 to to the schools nlone, but to schools plus the raw materials, the great natural resources of mines, farms, forests, etc., must one turn for per manent success. Germany has the best Industrial and industrial-art school system on earth, but no very great amount of natural resources. The whole land is not as large as Texas, and by no means comparable with California In richness of soil or charm of climate. To Its schools it must turn, If It Is to continue Its success. Here we have everything the world wants or the nations need. We are producing a large part (20 to 25 per cent) of the world's wheat; of its cattle 35 to 40 per cent; of Its corn 80 to 85 per cent. By the side of a superficial success a waste Is going on that is simply appalling. Education Is needed to stop that waste. Whereas, we have coal deposits good for 2500 years, at an output of 400 million tons a year, experts like Mr. Carnegie, Prof. Shaler and others are warning us that our wasteful habits may lead to a loss of our entire coal supply in less than 300 years. There has been wanton waste In our woods. We are face to face with a lumber famine, whereas a little wisdom, based upon education, upon what might easily have been learned, would have mad? our forests a constant source of power and profit. Our educational system Is sul gen eris. In buildings and equipment wf beat the world. In pay, no nation touches ub. It chats us more to keep up our educational p. ants than 1' costs for nearly all the educationa plants of continental Europe combln ed. What Is put Into armies over there we put Into schools. We pay our teachers dollars to the quartert paid by others. We furnish schools apparatus, books and instruction free. What is the result? When we want high grade workmen we have to go abroad for them. Very few or our bovs and girls graduate from our colleges only one out of every 120. J. C.

By a restraining order Issued yesterday afternoon by Judge Wolverton In the United States court, the long-drawn controversy over salmon finning 1?' the Columbia River between the Washington and Oregon salmon fish ers Is at an end until such time as the United States supreme court has decided the Chris Nellseu case, which will be some time In December. This means that fishing for salmon on the Columbia river is thrown wide open to regularly licensed fishermen, and it sets at rest all of the turmoil and strife caused by the conflicting laws that have occasioned Master Fish Warden McAllister so mnny sleepless nights and legal entangle ments. Chris Nellson, around whom the present fishing controversy hinges, was arrested so long ago that only salmon fishermen remember. He was a Washington fisherman and used a purse seine, a fishing appar atus permitted by the laws of Wash ington, but prohibited by the laws of Oregon. He was arrested by the Oregon authorities and convicted In the lower courts. The case was car ried to the State Supreme court and Judge Bean sustained the decision of the lower court, but the Washing ton authorities agreed to carry the case to the United States supreme court, which was done after a long delay and where it now rests. o TO UNVEIL FOUNTAIN.

According to Naioleon, three-1 fourths of an army's success In war 1 Is due to the moral character of lis soldiers. Now, more than ever, says Oen. Kuropatkln. In the October Mc Clure's, must a successful war be a popular war. Continuing he says: "The recent contest In Manchuria was a popular war for the Japanese, but not for us. The Korean question, and the question of naval supremacy on the waters of the Pacific. Involved vital Japanese Interests, and the im mense importance of those Interests was so clearly understood and to fully appreciated by the Japanese people that the war for their protec tion was a national war. Japanese Isoldlers. deeply conscious of the bearing that their exploits might have on the future of the country. fought with a self-sacrificing devo tion and a stubbornness that we had never seen In any war In whirh we had previously been engaged. Some times, in villnges that wo had taken by assault, a handful of Japanese soldiers would barricade themselves In native houses and die there rath er than retreat or Burrendor. Jap anese officers who fell Into our handa even wounded officers ge'iorally committed suicide. In some cases Japanese moth ers even killed themselves, when their sons, on account of weak liens or Hi-health, were denied admission to he tinny.

Accidents In the coal mines of the United States In 1907 resulted in denlh to 3125 men and injury to 5316 more an Increase of 103.1 In number of deaths and 516 in the number of injuries over the record of 190(1. The reports received Indicate a death rate per thousand employes of 3.31 In 1906 and 4.86 in 1907, and the number of tons mined for each life lost decreased from 194,950 to 145,471. The Slate which had the lowest death rate per thousand (0.65) In 1907 was Missouri, where 499,742 tons of coal were mined for each life lost. West Virginia reported the largest death rate In 1907 12.35 per thous and and the lowest production for each llfo lost 65.969 tons. Of the total number reported for the liiHt calendar year, 947 deaths and 343 Injuries were caused by gas and dust explosions, 201 deaths and 416 Injuries by powder explosions and windy shots, 1122 deathB and 2141 injuries by falls of roof or coal; 855 deaths and 2416 Injuries were ascribed to other causes. ' The fig ures for 1907 show, however, that ex plosions of gas or mixtures of gas and dust have comparatively fatal results, tho number killed In this way during the yoar being three times as groat as the number injur ed. Accident. Prevention. Commenting on this record in his report upon the coal production of tho country, published by the United Stntes geological survey as an ad vance chapter from "Mineral Re sources of the United States, Calen dar Year 1907," E. W. Parker, the coal expert and chief statlstlcan of the survey, says: "It has been said thnt there is only one way by which accidents in coal mines can be entirely prevent ed, nnd Hint is by ceasing, to mine coal. There Is no doubt, however, that the number of accidents may be greatly lessened, and much benefit Is anticipated from the action Of Con gress tn appropriating $150,000 to enable the United States Geological Survey to Investigate the cause of mine explosions and make recommen dations 111 relation thereto.
