THURSDAY, AUGUST, 27 THE MORNING AST011IAN, ASTORIA, OREGON, IN TO PROTECT mum a ninKM IHb NAIlUN b DlKUd INCALCUBLE LOSS RESULTS FROM THEIR CONSTANT, RUTHLESS SLAUGHTER. HELP OF ALL IS ASKED "Sv th Birds Who Save Our Llvei and Our Crops," U the Watchword of the National Audubon Societies, the Protectors of Birds. NEW YORK, Aug. 26. While the light fur the presidency is prcuiing over the country, another national campaign for the right of the leath ered population of the continent is to be prclcd with redoubled force from this city to-day. Acting for the in land birds whose further extinction must lay barren all the land and (or (tie water fowl whose death will bring en national oestilence. the National Association of Audubon Societies has mapped out every section of the tin ted States and organized a force of speakers to bring home their fssues to all the people. Though the politi cal battle will end next November, this campaign for the birds will be ceaselessly carried to every American citizen until eventually the federal and state governments shall establish bu reaus to adequately meet the nation al need for economic bird preserva tion. Seven able organisations have been to-day assigned to cover as many di visions of the whole country and es tablish local headquarters' in this uni que campaign for the national feath ered life. At a constant cost of $20,- '.000 a year these trained workers will be kept on tour till every community In the land has had the opportunity to bear the story of the dying birds and the loss of lives and crops which their decrease threatens. Funds to increase tfiis campaigning force will be sought from every man, woman and child In the country who cares for the birds or has a dollar at stake in the agricul tural and commercial Interests, which they alone can guard from destruc tion. While Only about a thousand members to-day help the National As sociation of Audubon Societies to maintain scores of reservations, an army of wardens, a small fleet of pa trol boats and a staff of educational "workers, it is believed that, when the present emergency is brought home to , the nation, many thousands will en list in the movement. "Save the birds who save our lives and crops," is to be the watchword of the new national campaign which is being launched at Audubon headquar ter, here to-day. The prediction of Henry V. Henshaw, a government ex pert, that "were the birds extermina ted it is almost .certain that not only would successful agriculture become Vimpossible but the destruction of the greater part of- vegetation would fol low," is to be its key-note. The es tablished fact that destructive insect life is to-day alarmingly on the in crease and the birds, its natural check, steadily becoming extermina ted will be set forth before every far mer, orchardist, railroad and business man together with the known loss of $800,000,000 due to this condition last year. Medical authorities will be ci ted and the profession aroused to the possibilities of plague in the decline of the waterfowl, Nature's scavengers. w in.nd to nlace before all the . people the greatest non-partisan Is sue confronting the nation at this time," said William Dutcher, presi dentof the National Association of Au- ' dubon Societies . at Its headquarters, 141 Broadway, to-day, "We are squarely faced by "an Impending nat ional calamity and yet the government only appropriates some $62,000 a year to investigate and educate on' this paramount economic problem. As much is put Into one single gun which Is soon worn out. Until the federal and state governments are forced by the people to establish adequate de partments or bureaus for the expert handling of this important subject our association will keep p this ? fight throughout the nation. I believe this work will eventually be adopted as one of the government's most essen tial activities; but, until it is, we shall call on all patriotic Americans to help uV fill the breach and struggle with the grave problem, which, aside from sentiment, is of( intense economic im portance." . " THE NEWEST THEATRE. Managers, Critics, Authors The Only Auditors Permitted In It NEW YORK, An. 261 f the plans of Martin Beck, the vaudeville manager materialize, this city of many theatres will have added to its list one of the most unque playhouses in ex- istence. ; Mr. Beck has announced that the construction of the theatre, which will be known as "The newest theatre" will begin soon, The theatre is designed primarily as one for the development of material for the vaudeville stage.

EXPORTS FROM FRANCE MORE All Manner of Staples Have Taken an Upward Tendency Fish Particu larly Active Liquors Fall Off Somewhat WASHINGTON, Aug. 26The United States pure food law instead of hampering foreign trade has benefit ted it and seems have carried with "it a greater respect for foreign labels, is the opinion expressed by the United Slates Consul, Dominic I. Murphy, at Eordeaux, France, former commis sioner of pensions, in a report on French exports to the United States. Consul Murphy says the records of the Bordeaux consulate, one of the firt places which would naturally feel the ' effects of changed conditions, show that the declared values of ex ports of French foods and food pro ducts to the United States during the firt year of the operation of the pure- food law actually increased. The va lue of alimentary repast, foods includ ing macaroni increased almost $47,000 during 1907 as compared with 1906, jam and jellies increased $19,921, ol ive oil $63,733, preserved fruits $34708, preserved vegetables $55,132, still nines $96,789, and sparkling wines $5,909. Other articles classed as foods showed decreased exportation but the decrease in almost every item may be properly accounted for with out reference to the pure food law, says the consul. Exports of brandy fell off $11,285, but the records show a much greater falling off in 1906, compared with 1905. The decrease in preseved fish, which was considerably due solely to the practical failure of the sardine fisher ies the packers here have been utter ly unable to supply a hundredth part of their American orders. As for liques the slight decrease Is due to the provision of the pure food law forbidding the use of certain col oring matters and the difficulty was in INSANE OVER NOISES.

You must remember that at the bidding of my superiors I have been the means of ruining ministers, and government officials, and 17,000 Turks, many of them of the most hon orable famili.es, during my term of of fice, disappeared. "It mattered not who the persons were to be removed ,the orders from finding proper substitutes. the Yildiz (the residence of the Sul tan) were implicitly obeyed; to be de nounced by the secret police was suf ficient to ruin anyone.
