found It necessary to rive tip his flrht.
but at the same t.me they do not ques

Pld.
SnpMrl of llurke Attested.
Rohert S. Terhuite. chairman of the
Klnc t'ounty Central Committee, which
as orcanl2"d months aco In Wilson's
Interest, said: "1 wanted to see Wilson
named as Kmc county's choice. It has
been decided otherwise and I am coin
to do all 1 ran for Judco Burke. We
must have a Western Washington Sena
tor and I believe Klnc county la entitled
to the office. r"rom now to the close
of the polls I am In the ficht for Judge
Burke."
Bernard W. Murray, a member of the
'iianiv Committer and one of Wllaon'a
closest political friends, said: "The lo.
ral flcht Is over and there la only one
thine we Republicans of Klnc county
an do that la. lve Judge Burke our
liearty support. I will do as much for
Indie Furke as I would have done for
Senator Wilson had h been the choice."
P. K. Parcel!, one of Sir. Wilson's chief
representatives In the conferences that
led to the aettlement ft the question,
said: "In view of tBe present situa
tion, we of Kinc eountr wll' unite In
upport of Judae Burke. There la no
doubt of JudB" ITurlte'" ability, his earn
estness, his ahsolute Integrity and hla
ccressiveness. We must elect Judce
Htirke and I am colnc to rive him the
same support I woulS have clven Sena
tor Wilson and would have expected
from the friends of Judce Burke had
Mr. Wilson been the choice."
Burke Gains StronRtli.
Many others connected with the Wil
son campaign In Klnc county and In
other counties of the state, have made
similar statements: and from none of
the Wilson followlnc has anything to
the contrary been heard either In puh
J.c or. private. F.aslem Washlncton
f rlenda of Senator- Wealey L Jones, who
thrmurh his expressed preference had In
clined to Mr. Wilson, are declaring- their
purpose to support Judeo Bivke. The
Northwestern counties are unanimous In
like declarations and the Southwest, with
the exception of Pierce county, la equal
ly determined.
Published accounts or the results of
the conference which led to the with
drawal of Senator Wilson have been In
definite on only one point: It hna been
truthfully stated that Judce Burke, at
the outset, declared that he could enter
Into conference only on the express un
derstanding that he would not. under
any circumstances, withdraw.
Itra-on for Kcfuwil ;iven.
The position of Judce rfurke's friends
was supported by knowledge of the re
nu'St made upon Senator Wilson by the
President. But In addition to this waa
tht. fact that a favorite weapon asalnst
JuJge R'jrke. had been the starting; of
freqe-nt rumors of his pending with
drawal. These forced from Judge Burke
several firm and unequivocal denials and
repealed declarations that he was in the
f ght to stay. Not two weeks ago It
waa necetsary to set the last rumor of
the kind at rest. In view of these cir
cumstances, not of his own making, and
the character of certain allegations and
" a-cusatlons made against him. Judce
Burke felt, and hl frl-nds agreed, that
h could not irntain Ma self-respect
If he entered Into conference on any
fVrms that might take him out of the
conteet and give color to the sugges
tion that he had been driven out.
. These facts, stated In Justice to Judce
Burke, detract nothing from the unsel
fishness of the sacrifice made by Mr.
Wilson. Mis withdrawal, taken In con
nection wrlth the big movement In the
labor vote toward Judce Burke, has
brought all contentions In King county
to an end and made certain a great
majority for the county's choice. The
solution of the long and difficult problem
has Imbued the support om of both Burke
and Wilson with the belief that the
state of Washington will be. held firmly
In the Republican column.

J. Wilson lor the Senate and added that
a West ilde man should be elected to
succeed Senator Plies. From the same
platform with Mr. Wllaon. Senator

ticians are wondering since the receipt
of thls telegram whether Jones will In
dorse Aahton. A few days ago Senator
Jones declared that Mr. Ashton was
suitable Senatorial timber.
James 11 Puis, manager of the Ash
ton campaign, was asked whether Sen
ator Jones had Indorsed or waa going
to Indorse Ashton.
"I could not say," P'avls "answered.
"Hla telegram only said that he wotild

JOINT RULE NEAR
United States and Canada to
Control Railroads.
TWO COMMISSIONS AGREE
Arrangement Awaits Ratification by
Congress and Parliament Free
Trade In Coal May Be Proposed
by Dominion Commission.
v vrm:vER R. c.. Sent- "Joint
regulation of International railway
traffic by the United States interstate
Commerce Commission and Dominion
j n D,iia.,v fnminlsRloners is in
IJUQI li VI ,lt-J - -
sight." ssld J. P. Mabee, chairman of
the Canadian commission, to me
elated Press today.
At a recent conference with Mr.
Knapp, chairman of the American Com
mission, we reached a basis of agree
ment. The details are now being worked
out. The agreement will be submitted
for ratification to the American Con
gress and the Dominion Parliament at
the coining session. "Both governments
desire that an arrangement for Joint
regulation be made between the two
countries, and it will become enecuv.
as soon as the necessary legislation can
be enacted. Besides regulating Interna
tional railway traffic, the agreement
provides for the regulation of Interna
tional telegraphic, telephonic and ex
press business. The details of the
agreement will be decided at a Joint
meeting of the two Doaras to uc uciu
this Fail."
The Dominion Commission began Its
sessions In Vancouver this morning and
will have to dispose of 27 applications
for railway and bridge rights. The
matters to be disposed of Include ap
plications by the Great Northern; Cana
dian Northern and Victorian Vancouver
A Eastern relative to obtaining per
mission to build railway bridges and
branch lines In and about this city.
The most Interesting feature of the
visit of the Commissioners was the plea
made by Secretary Richardson for the
removal of duty on bituminous coal
on both sides of the line. This, because
of the immense-fields of British Colum
bia, would greatly increase the Cana
dian imports of this section, he said,
and would also aid In the mutual de
velopment of trade with the United
States.
MINING FIRM IS SUED
Cnlted States Brings Suit Against
Bnnker HIM Company.
The famous BunkeY Hill A Sullivan
Mining Construction Company, or the
mining .. vesterday
coeur o ienc mo....., .
accused In the United States Court of
having Illegally cut timber from the
public domain valued at s0-o

United States Attorney McCourt for the
recovery or the amouni.
The timber. It is said, waa used for

mining puii. " - , "
properties of the Wardner-Kellogg-
Wallace district, ana
been taken from non-mlneral-bearlng
lands. The suit Is based on the value
of the timber at the places where It
was used and after being manufactured
Into stulls. Tho company is charged
with having utilised 389,830 lineal feet
of timber valued at 2M cents per foot,
and with having left timber valued
at I1K00 to rot on the ground.
Until about a year ago mining com
panies were permitted to go upon the
publlo domain to cut timber for their
operations, the only restriction being
that they should take it from mineral
bearing lands In the locality of the mine
where U was to be used.
It Is asserted by the special land
scents who have worked on thjs case
that the timber was taken from public
lands which were barred from such
cutting. It Is probable that the Bunker
Hill Sullivan Mining Company will
contend that the timber was taken In
good raltn and that the only Judgment
to which the Government Is entitled. If
any, is the value of the timber on the
stump.
The Bunker Hill A Sullivan proper
ties and their fabulous wealth have
formed a chief part of mining camp
lore of the West for many years. Orig
inally th,Bunker Hill mine waa lo
cated on one side of the little gulch at
Wardner. and opposite 't loomed the
upper works of the Sullivan. After con
solidation the company branched out
by the acquirement of additional min
ing locations, until today It Is the best
known mining compsny of the North
west, if not in the United States.

the engine, the cowcatcher striking
him and the top of his skull was com
pletely cut off.
Blackwell is survived by his wife,
who resides at Scott's Mills. She states
he left her in practically destitute cir
cumstances, owing to his fondness for

Fish Warden Clanton Reports
on Work of Hatcheries.
LOW WATER IS HINDRANCE
Salmon Prevented From Getting Vp
Streams to Spawn by Dryness of
Season Hatchery Takes,
However, Encouraging.
SALEM. Or.. Sept. . (Special.)
Master Fish Warden Clanton in his
report this month gives a complete
ststement of hatchery work through
out the state. He calls attention to tho
fact that the Fall closed season went
Into effect on the Columbia River Au
gust 25 and says no attempts have so
far been made to violate the law.
Four'deputy wardens patrol the rlvor
constantly In launches, but the atti
tude of most of the fishermen, accord
ing to Mr. Clanton, seems to be to
uphold the law and allow the salmon
to pass up the rivers to the hatcheries
and natural spawning grounds.
At the Bonneville hatchery, work on
the retaining ponds, funds for which
were subscribed by the cannerymen and
packers along the Columbia River, is
progressing rapidly. The hatchery
building, troughs and baskets have also
been thoroughly overhauled.
At the McKenzie River hatchery, the
egg-taking season is at its height and
339.000 Chinook eggs have been se
cured. Although the prospects for a
large take are not as encouraging as
they were last season, owing to the
low stage of "water. Mr. Clanton says
he Is confident that It will compare
favorably with that of former years
before the last salmon has been
spawned.
The Wallowa River hatchery, like
the McKenzle. is feeling the effeots of
the long dry spell.
The hatchery work of the Salmon
River station has been interfered with
somewhat by forest fires, but no dam
age has been done to the state's prop
erty. Superintendent Holcomb reports
that 250,190 early Chinook eggs have
been taken there. Improvements have
been made to the hatchery on the
Trask and repairs have been made to
the permanent trap and rack at tha
Vaquina hatchery, which was washed
away In freshets last year. The Alsea
River hatchery station is merely an
experimental station and is located
about two miles above the 'head of tide
on Bear Creek. Everett E. Cook has
been placed in charge as superintend
ent. The racks on the Siuslaw have been
repaired and the station fitted up. The
hatchery building on the Umpqua is
well under way. Prospects for a big
egg take on South Coos River hava
never been rffore promising. Superin
tendent F. W. Smith has made repairs
to the rack and embankment which
washed out last Winter.
The receipts of the department are
shown to have been $2714.96, while dis
bursements amounted to $3305.45.

T"?
behind them, with somewhat of a less
graceful gait, there follows another pair
of feet with black shoes and black stock
ings. They are not dainty like the pink
feet, though they are small. The feet
and their movements lack the dainty
grace of the pink ones. So he says that
the pink feet are those of a pretty little
girl and the black feet belong to some
"daddy's Joy'" of a little boy.
More feet come and go. Here is a
mother. Her feet are much like the feet
of other women who pass, but. a little
pair of kid shoes toddlo along with her.
The next are big. rough and uncouth.
The shoes are muddy about the heels.
Across tho toes are dusty white narks.
Around the bottom of the trousers are
marks of white. A baker? No. A millerT
No. Oh, yes. to be sure. He is a hod-
carrier.
Quick I Here she is in all her glory:
Heels like a pair of stilts say, how in
thunderatlon could any human like to
wear such shoes? And holding her skirts
out of the water on the sidewalk there is
the least bit of a thin, little lace of an
underskirt showing. But he doesn't look
up. He's a notion in his own mind what
eiie ought to look like.
Here is a man. His ehoen are polished,
and. why he Is rrtatrrled! He Is a young
married man. His movements indicate
that he is young. So does the pattern of
his trousers. There are two certain in
dications 'that he Is married. He is car
rying a parasol. The back of his trous-
- v. lsnnl n ra frovpH iust a little.
Now. Sherlock, that is enough. The par
asol belongs to some woman, m me
an his wife? Sure. He wouldn't dare
be carrying some other girl's parasol and
if he were not married he would have
better trousers and here comes the ver
ification. He has stopped. She is now
even with him and they are walking
away together!
