Commercial Club of the Garden City Considering the ApopUon of the Most Progressive System of Munici pal Government Known. That Walla Walla adopt the Galves ton form of city government wyi more than likely be the recommendation of the Commercial club of this city, says the Walla Walla Statesman. The mat ter was brought up in the meeting of that organization last night by George Ludwigs, who referred to an article lately appearing in "Success." A lively discussion and airing of opinions at once followed the mention of the matter and everyone who was conversant with the form of munici pal rule which has worked so success fully iu Galveston, where it was Intro- Aared, and in Memphis, Des Moines sad other places, was heartily in favor of the adoption of the new system. "The present form of government we have In this city is old and obso lete," said Vice President Dement, who was presiding. "We need an up-to-date form of city government." This expression seemed to voice the aenttment? of everyone present. Sev era spoke along the same line and all were of the opinion that the new aystem should be tried here. The matter was disposed of by a motion to have the secretary make a digest of this municipal control ana report to the Commercial club for action at the next meeting. When the census Is taken to ascer tain whether or not Walla Walla is to come out of the backwoods and be no longer a village, but a first-class dty. this matter will more than like ly be carried out. There Is no doubt an Director Klrkman of the club said tost night, that Walla Walla has and can show. 25,000 inhabitant?, taking them ss do Seattle and Portland. ThlR census will be surely taken this summer, and application be made for a new cnarter. When this Is granted If an effort will be made on the part of those who favor the Galveston sys tem, to have It Introduced here, In all probability. It will be tried.

Baker Lours Patronage. Another apparent unfairness was shown toward Baker City by the method of routing passengers from Portland to Burns, says the Baker City Herald. It Is claimed that In order to secure as much money as possible out of the passengers, the road rends them to Burns by way of Ontario and Vale instead of via Baker and Austin But the railroad would probably lose $3 by sending passengers through Ba ker City so the patron has to pay out more money, spend more time and suffer great Inconvenience of travel. Those who are familiar with condi tions state that the trip to Burns can be made much quicker from Baker City, the distance to be traveled by stage m much less and the Inconven iences are not so great as when going by way of Ontario. Almost 12 hours Is saved In the trip to Burns by way of Baker City and the traveler Is given more time to rest between stages of the Journey. But the passenger or his romfort evidently Is not taken Into consideration. Real love, after all, Is nothing much hut giving away the cruat that we hunger for ourselves. 49c 79c 98c $1.58 48c 43c 62c 98c 87c Save Your Coupons OIIDT USE SISAL WOOL BUYERS REFUSE TO TAKE COMMON TWINE All (lie Leading Firms Decline to Buy Fleeces Tied With the Old Kind of Wool Twine Sheepmen Are Warn ed In Time to Give Them an Oppor tunity to Change. J. E. Clinton, jr., local represen tative of a Boston wool buying house, has received a communication, the contents of which are the utmost im portance to wool growers of Idaho since they relate to the preparation of the fleeces for market and tell lh what condition some of the houses will hereafter receive wool, says the Boise Statesman. The communica tion follows: "For many years past the wool merchants of the United States have made ineffectual efforts to Induce the wool growers to improve their meth ods in preparing the wool for mar ket. One of the principal abuses is the tying up of fleeces with sisal twine, or so-called binder twine. The loose fibre from the twine clings to the wool throughout all the processee of manufacture and causes Imperfect goods and consequent loss. "We believe If this serious matter is called to the attention of growers they will cooperate with the dealers and discontinue the practice of tying their wool with such twine aa de- schlbed, thereby putting American wools In closer competition with those of foreign countries. "We, the undersigned, hereby agree to at once notify all our correspond ents and buyers In the fleece wool section that we shall not accept wool tied with sisal twine nor wool that Is tied with an undue amount of srlng, as merchandise.

MAY TICKET THROUGH TO THE SOUND IMMMMte Commerce fniiindssloii Wlthdrewi Its Objection to tlie Sale of Tickets Via Portland to Puget Sound Point O. R. it N. Officers Attain Opened on the Sound llouteseeker Movement Is Light ThH Year. The Portland gateway has been open since April 9, but It Is not be lieved the result will be to greatly in crease the colonist movement, says the Oregon Sunday Journal. The fact Is that there Is a light movement of homeseeker truvel this spring from the east, owing to the financial con ditions that preceded the opening of sale dates, March 1. Action on the part of J. C. Stubbs, traffic director of the Harriman lines, resulted in remedying the trouble that caused the closing of the gate way. The Union Pacific railroad company modified the manner of Is suing Its passenger tariffs, and the Interstate commerce withdrew Its ob jections to the sale of through tick ets from Union Pacific territory via Portland to points north on the Northern Pacific. Objection to Method. General Passenger Agent William McMurray of the Harriman lines, has Just received word that the Interstate commerce commission has approved of the resumption of sale of tickets to and from Puget sound via Portland. Inquiry developed that the commis sion's objection was directed to the method of tariff publication rather than the matter Itself. When the objection of the Inter state commission was brought to the attention of J. C. Stubbs, traffic di rector of the Harriman lines, that of ficial ordered the immediate with drawal of the old tariffs until the railway company could ascertain the exact wishes, and on and after March 15 the Harriman lines and connections will resume the sale of tickets from Puget sound points via Huntington and Portland to the east as hereto fore. This arrangement was made effective westbound via Huntington and Portland April 9. Take on Dlsmlascd Men. John M. Scott, assistant general passenger agent, who went to Puget sound and reduced the working forces In the passenger department there, and closed the Olympla office of the company, will go back over the! ground immediately and restore to their former positions the men who are available. Four men will resume i work in the Seattle office, three in the Tacoma office, and one In the Olympla office. The principal reason assigned for the falling off of homeseeker travel over the transcontinental lines to the entire Pacific coast this spring is that eastern farmers and men of property who were last fall contemplating re moval o the coast, found that they could not readily dispose of their property to advantage, and they are awnltlng more favorable conditions of the money markets. STOP SLAUGHTER OF BIRDS. Andobon Societies Create Sen 1 1 men AgniiiNt "Bloody" Hats for Wo men. New York. April 13. Less bird blood has been spilled to decorate the Easter bonnets of American women this year than ever In recent history. It was declared by experts In this city today. Based on 'careful examination of the millinery market as well as re ports from agents throughout the country, this conclusion was an nounced at the headquarters of the National Association of Audobon so cieties. "?f With the help of the million women members of the National Federation of Women's clubs and other organi zations, the Audobon workers promise to 'keep up their fight against this, f fashionable form of bird butchery till reparation for Easter Sunday n.o longer means a massacre of breeding birds. That a minority among tho women of this country still demands the bloody scalps of the mother heron for aigrettes Is shown by the Illicit and secret traffic In these plumes which officers of the Audobon association nssert Is today being conducted by th plume hunters. Although the Easter carnage nmong this sightly species has practically exterminated It In all of Its old haunts In the United States, sections of South America are now being secretly scour ed, as well aa southern Europe, Afri ca and Asia, for this nuptial plume of the breeding heron.

' rapsatad attempts to secure legisla tion In New York state to make pros ecution of such traffic possible, the Audobon workers are today unable to effectively check the distribution from this city of aigrettes Irrespective of where they come from to the women who still wear them. FREIGHT IJUSINKSS BETTER. Average of 75 Gar Per Day laHs Westward Through Iia Grande. Railroad freight hualnes8 has been on a steady Increase the past fow weeks, says tho La Grande Star. The principal part of the business Is west ward. It la stated at the O. R. & N. headquarters that nn average of 75 rnrs of through westbound freight pass through La Grande every day. There Is some eastward movement of lumber, but not In the quantities that this part of the road has been accustomed to handle. If there were the same proportional amount of bus iness toward the east that there la now westward hound, the O. It. & N. would be doing the biggest freight business In Its history. The amount of westbound travel that was expected to get In motion on the strength of the spring colonist rates. Is a disappointment. There are now scarcely more than coach loads, where there were train loads of home seekers last year. The railroad men In the La Grande offices assert as a positive fact that there Is now more travel toward the ont than'iere Is toward the west. The cause of this unusual and unex pected condition Is ascribed to the hard times In the east. Throughout the section of country from whlhc the homeseeker travel Is principally drawn there is still a stringency and notwithstanding the cheap fares, the proportion of those who have money to travel la more limited than heretofore. On the other hand, the coast people do not feel the stringency to any unu sual extent and they have money with which to travel. This is given as the only explanation of tho present situ ation In which more people are going east than there are persons oming west. Maccabees!
