GREED OF CARRIERS
The English lines engaged in the
New Zealand carrying trade have no 1
monopoly or desire to cinch the pro- j
ducer. Their action in absorbing the j
benefits of the preferential tariff in i
favor of English producers was par- j
alleled by the railroads of the United
States when the latter promptly rais- i
ed the freight rate on lemons as soon
as Congress increased the tariff to
aid the California growers of this
iruit. The Interstate Commerce Com
mission compelled the roads to aban
don their increased rate to the east
ern markets but the matter was ap
pealed to the Commerce Court and it
is there yet. It is noteworthy of re-'
mark that the producers of citrus fruit
in Florida, California, Arizona, Louis
iana, Texas and other states, have
made surprising succes in spite of
many natural handicaps and the
heavy burden of freights. The oranges
produced in this country have crowd
ed out the imported orange almost en
tirely ,and under the encouragement
of the tariff the home grown lemon,
acknowledged to be better than tha
imported, and selling at as low a
price, promises to do as well.
The American farmer is thus prov-

CHERE is a section of this American continent within which at
some future day there will be developed a fivilization richer,
greater, more extensive than that evolved today in our Mis
sissippi valley. It is not in the United States. It i3 far
south of us. ITS WEALTH IS PRACTICALLY UNKNOWN
except to the few scientists and the occasional traders who have ex
plored its vast solitudes.

There are steamboats on the river, but so there were before Bates

river Amazon. In fact, you might say that he is SCARCELY LN

BUT THE TIME WILL COME WHEN THIS WHOLE REGION
WILL BE TRANSFORMED INTO ONE OF THE RICHEST GARDEN
SPOTS OF THE EARTH, THE SEAT OF A CIVILIZATION GREATER
AND MORE FARREACHING THAN THAT FOUND TODAY IN THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.
I don't mean to say that there are any evidences of such a growth,
such a transformation of the Amazon country at present. It is simply
there potentially. You have a river system on a gigantic scale. Bates
quotes the natives of Para as naming the Amazon "the Mediterranean
of South America.'
It is a NETWORK OF STREAMS, EXTENDING ALMOST
FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN and covering a still greater territory
jiorth and south of the main river. At Manaos there is a rise and fall
of forty feet in the water level, dependent, of course, on the rainfall
and the melting of snow on the river. Almost any width you choose
to give it I should say that the average width to Manaos is from
two to three miles. -

China also will hold a general elec

turns from back districts in a popu

steady job for several months.
The first Democratic House elected

As active campaigners the score is
close between Mr. Bryan and the col

the colonel has no rival except Signor

Mr. Wells was once against Bryan,
but the Wells appointment as Demo

fresh attempt to knock Bryan into a
cocked hat.
WEST EXPECTED TO
E
SALEM, Or., Aug. 21. Further
than to declare that he had arrived
at a decision and would make it known
in a few days, Governor West was
noncommittal as to what action will
be taken in relation to Jack Roberts,
sentenced to hang August 23, for the
murder of Donald Stewart, but the
general impression here if that he
will follow out his system adopted as
to other murderers, and reprieve Rob
erts after the November election.
TheGovernor's action alone can save
Roberts from hanging next Friday,
August 23, as the Supreme Court yes
terday refused to grant a writ of prob
able cause, which the defense sought
to be used as a basis for an appeal.

JEFFRIES LOSES FIGHT,
BUT GETS FINE BUCK
LOS ANGELES, Aug) 21. With a
badly twisted ankle, but in possession
of a buck that caused the accident Jim
Jeffries today returned from a hunt
ing trip near Soledad. Jim's injury
was received after he and an unident
ified hunter had fired simultaneously
from different angles at a deer. Each
claimed the animal, and the stranger,
unaware of Jeffries' identity, attempt
ed to take it by force. Aiming one of
his famous right swings at the ene
my's jaw, Jeffries' judgment of dis
tance was poor. He missed and for
three seconds wildly waved his arms
on the brink of a precipice. A time
ly butt in the stomach from the
stranger's head sent the former cham
pion down an 80 foot incline. He
grasped the buck's leg as he fell.
Evidently fearing he had killed his
antagonist, the stranger disappeared.
Jeff was found two hours later by his
brother Jack and helped to camp.
OF
MEAT LOST IN FIRE
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21. Four hun
dred horses and sheep were burned
to death, buildings and dressed meats
valued at $400,000 destroyed and Fred
Montgomery, an employe, severely in
jured in a fire that consumed the
plant of the Los Angeles Packing
Company, a subsidiary of Swift & Co.,
early today.
Outside of the city fire limits, there
was little chance to save the build
ings, which covered several acres.
Many head of stock were saved, but
the bellowings and shrieks of the an
imals remaining in the sheds and cor
rals could be heard for blocks.
The plant was built in 1906 and was
lightly insured. The fire started in
the drying room, presumably from
spontaneous combustion.

tion. He said in part":
"The advance aeent nf this deliri
ous excursion tarried a few days ago
at Chicago, long enough to pool their
individual grievances, visions and va
garies in a bewildering farrago of im
practical political nostrums such as
never, before has collected at one
time outside the violent- wards nf a
madhouse. And thus the so-called
Frogressive party was born, its sole
excuse for existence being the un
founded claim that it's nominee for
the Presidency was defeated for a like
nomination by stolen votes at the Re
publican Convention.
Sherman, in accepting the nomina
tion said in part:
"Gentlemen of the Committee: You
represent the 48 states of the Union
and 8,000,000 Republican voters in our
wide domain. You bear the commis
sion of the convention, which, repre
senting them, met in Chicago in. June.
The annals of American parties do not
record the proceedings of a political
gathering conducted with more open
ness, fairness, deliberation, sobriety
ana wortny purpose than that for
which you speak.
"Not deceived by the clamor of those
who attempted to bolster up claims
without basis, by hundreds of con
tests resting on a foundation sq flim
sy that in the light of investigation
most or tnem melted away like snow
in a furnace heat and were rejected
by quite or nearly, a unanimous vote,
the convention adopted a platform
that rings true, for patriotism and con
stitutional government and worthily
bestowed the renomination upon our
present Chief Executive.
"Our party never before has confer
red a second nomination for the office
of vice-president upon any man. This
distinction was not sought by me, but
unsolicited it is the more appreciated.
"Our opponents are. divided into two
camps, rivaling each other in their ef
forts to excel in distributing the civ
ic and economic order of the country.
The new party thrusts itself forward
into the vacuum left by the phantoms
of other third parties which have pass
ed into oblivion. Oblivion, too, awaits
it. The Democratic party in the Na
tion has many times defeated its Re
publican rival in August; but twice
has it done so in November."
Sherman read excerpts from a vol
ume written by Governor Wilson,
whom he declared a pedagogue, not a
statesman.
He upheld the protective tariff and
said the thoughtful could see no prom
ise of betterment "in the frantic cry
for a change." He commended the
recent vetoes of the tariff bills by
President Taft and said the vetoes
called for the support of every citizen.
Continuing, he said:
"The crime of this new age is fren
zied speech and action; lack of
thought, a spurning of deliberation
and of the weighing of consequences.
Mad haste is the pastime of the multi
tude. "Automobile racers" carry their pas
sengers to death at a mile a minute.
The British Board of Trade attributes
the awful sinking of the Titanic, with
its ei-uC sacrifice of life, to excessive
speed. The uiird-term party and can
didate will soon urge tie country to
like disaster and ruin.
"Confident that the American peo
ple are not yet willing to destroy the
Constitution which has stood the test
of more than a century; that they
have not yet -forgotten the dire result
of the mistake of 1892, we calmly
await the ides of November."
President Taft sent a telegram to
Sherman today congratulating him
and. the Republican party on his re
nomination. The President wired:
"I am very sorry that the 'public
business prevents my presence at the
ceremonies. I congratulate you and
the party on your nomination. The
Republican party continues to be the
party of the Constitution, the defend
er of our guarantees of civil liberty,
private property and pursuit of hap
piness and other civil rights; the up
holder cf law and order, the opponent
of socialism, the sturdy supporter of
high compensation for wage earners
and our industrial success through a
protective tariff. I am proud again to
be a joint standard bearer with you
for that party ,of conservatism, san
ity and progress."

By EDWIN A. NYE.
TO THE MAN OF FORTY.
It is tlie .-oniiiioii saying tliiit unless
a man hits succeeded in life 1 the
time he is forty years of i;ge he uever
will succeed
The statement is too broad.
. It is untrue
The facts do uot sustain it.
A study of lite lives of the success
fill will stmw tliiit success coiurs to
most meu after rather than before
forty. Is it financial success? Who.
save by simulation, has amassed a
fortune before he was forty?
Or politics? Few get more than fair
ly started in politics before that age.
He who goes to the United States sen
ate at fifty is rated as a young mem
ber. Or merchandise or literature or art
or the professions?
Most of us at forty are nly just
ready for successful- endeavor. ' We
have made our mistakes and learned
of experience. We have discovered
our right place in life anil our limita
tions. . Years have matured judgnieut.
and the brain .stands guard over the
passions.
Life and literature teem with illus
trations of success at forty, fifty, sixty,
seventy, eveu ninety
Fortunate is he who is in the way of
success at the age ol forty: fortunate
he who. though unsuccessful, has
learned his world and himself and bag
not lost courage
Courage that is the prime thing.
No matter what his age. you cannot
keep a brave man down He may
stumble and fall and fall again and
again But be will get up
And some d:iy when In- lias worked
his will coiicertiiug -himself lie will
have alMiut bini his owe. harmed cir
cle of iicconiplishmeut where "none
durst walk but he"
Are you forty or more?
Hold up your chin atiil walk on your !
heels and toes You ale fairly fitted to
do what you waut to do ami become
what you want to be No young man
fan buy from you your per-oual expe
rience, whatever he may offer as the
price.
At forty you are the son of the ;od
of Things as they are. You have out
lived your illusions You know the
ways of your fellows You know your
own ways.
Is it not so?
From the fullness of your experience
you are mightily equipped out of de
feat to organize victory.
Having overcome yourself, you may
overcome the wirld. For greater is he
ftiat ruieth .his own spirit than he that
taketh a city. There is in you. bat
tered though you be. the power of con
quest. ,
Courage: You are ready to begin.
