It looks m though President Taft is in sympathy with the senate in surgents. They have maintained all along that the general under standing was that the plank in the republican platform meant revision of the tariff downward and they gather quite au array of evidence to substantiate their contention. The fact that the general average of duties provided for in the senate bill is higher than those of the Ding ley bill which it is intended to supersede, does not meet the hearty ap proval of the president. If the executive remains firm in bus stand for a lower average of duties, there is a possibility of a deadlock between the senate and the executive. But the probabilities are that the country as a whole will support the president, and if it does the senate will recede from its positiou. The nation is awaiting anxiously for the enactment of a measure in harmony with the declarations of the republican platform and it will welcome speedy action on the part of congress. Business is on the eve of a widespread revival and the sooner the tariff bill is disposed of the sooner will this feeling of hopefulness manifest itself in tangible re sults. North Central Washington has opportunities left for the thousands of homeseekers who are registering for the drawings and who will of necessity be disappointed. In all probability lands can be purchased in this section ihw at lower prices than will be asked for them later.

WASHINGTON, MONDAY", JULY 19, 1909 - Washington JOS. LATHAM, City' Scavenger. MILLINERS HIT BY NEW LAW AUDUBON SOCIETY SENDS NO TICE TO EVERY MILLINER OF THE STATE REGARDING USE OF WILD BIRDS ON HATS. J. F. lllingsworth, president, and Harry Rief, secretary of the Audu bon society, a world wide organiza tion formed for the perpetuation of feathered folk, has addressed a ukaso to every milliner plying his or her trade within the confines of the state of Washington. "Dear sir or madam," as the case may be, is advised that a law enacted at the legislative session of 1908 prohibits the killing or catching of certain wild "birds and forbids the wearing of the plumage that adorns such creatures. This law, the sir or madam is informed, has been tested in the supreme court of the United States, and it will go hard with any one caught violating it. Several months ago similar action was taken in Portland by the society. One day the sun rose on every millin* cry establishment in the Rose City displaying in its windows a gorgeous array of airgettes. That same sun sank on every window divested of its beautiful plumage. The Audubon so ciety had instituted a raid and seized thousands of dollars' worth of the contraband. The aggrieved milliners immediately carried their case into the courts, but the fight ended with victory resting with the society, for the milliners agreed nevermore to sell aigrettes, and have kept their word. Following is the society's pronun ciamento received in this city: "Dear Sir or Madam: We beg to call your attention to the fact that an act for the protection of wild birds, other than game birds, was en acted at the legislative session of 1903, and has been tested in our state courts. "This law reads as follows: 'No person shall, within the state of W r ashington, kill or catch or have in his or her possession, living or dead, any wild bird other than a game bird, or purchase, offer or expose for sale, transport or ship within or without the state, any such wild bird after it has been killed or caught, ex cept as permitted by this act. Nc part of the skin, plumage or body of any wild bird protected by this sec tion shall be sold or had in posses sion for sale. "This law is now In erfect, and warning is hereby given that it will be enforced. You are specially warn ed against selling or having in pos session for sale, any part of the plumage of the American egret or the snowy heron, plumes commonly known as "aigrettes," or any wings, plumes or other parts of grebes, peli cans, terns, gulls, ibis or other na tive or migrant birds, protected by this law.' " New Quarters for Army. The members of the Salvation Army are rejoicing over the fact that they are once again in a position to conduct their usual services. After the big fire had consumed the Ellis building which the army occupied as a meeting place, it looked hard for the army to obtain another place to rent as vacant buildings are at a pre mium in Wenatchee. Captain Egan obtained an option on a tent and en listing the aid of merchants he raised enough money to send for and pur chased the tent now occupied by the army at the corner of First and Mis sion streets. Last night the tent was well filled and the local comrades sprung a complete surprise on the public and also Mrs. Egan, to whom they presented a new guitar in the name of the Wenatchee corps. The little band of Salvationists certainly are a hustling crowd and always on the lookout to be of service to their fellow people, as was shown by their services during the recent fire, when they were seen distributing hot cof fee to the busy firemen.
