"Many of the papers 10 Eastern
Washington are booming the business
OF growing fax for seed. A consider
able increase in the area of land de-
voted to growing fax seed In that sec
tion would probably prove profitable,
but the statements which are current
in the newspapers there as to the yield
and profits which may be expected are
wildly extravagant. A yield of from
fifteen to twenty bushals Of seed per
acre is very large crop. II Is quite
easy to oyerstock the market and run
the price down TO an unpro6tably low
figure. The demand for the coarse tow
which is produced when fax Is grown
for seed has never been such 50 to JUS
tify the owners of tow mills In Mime
sofa and Dakota, in paying moro than
nominal price for fax straw. The
crop is also very exhaustive to the fer
tility of the soil, and its culture is
rarely followed up for many years In
any section. At present prices of flax
seed the crop would pay well in Oregon
and Washington, and If too many
would not engage in growing it. the
advice to plant more fax would be
good. Rural Northwest.
The editor of the Rural Northwest
is not entirely posted on the fax situa-
ton. He evidently is not aware that
the four largest flax-growing states
will, before two more years roll around
have entirely ceased raising that
article. AS to overstocking the fax
market for hnseed oil, that Is out OF
the question entirely, the annual sup
ply OF flax raised in the United
States has never yet supplied the nor
NAL demands. If the crop can be
profitably raised in Oregon, there need
be no fear of wearing out the rich soils
of the Willamette valley. In Dakota
1t is very common thing to raise from
twelve to twenty bushels, and If tie
shallow loam, under the disadvantage
of more or less drouth, can raise flax
for fifteen consecutive years, it eau at
least be ventured for trial of few
years, in our rich land.

Otherwise He Would

Disastrous Consequences Of
 Laying Down Trays.
Safe Robber Wore Chin Whiskers but No ShoeS-He Was
 Not Bluffing.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
 SANTA ROSA, Cal, Dec. 28.-Sants Rosa had the biggest sensation in its history today. The county treasurer was robbed of nearly $S,000 and County Treasurer Stolen was left insensible in the vault to sufocate by the robbers who locked tbe door of the vault on him. The robbery occurred at o'clock this morning, but was not discovered until 5 o'clock this afternoon.
 All this time Treasurer Stofen lay on the floor of the vault gasp ing for breath, fearing that every moment during his conscious intervals would be his last. Had it not been for the timely arrival of his wife, the only person in town who knew the com bination, he would have been dead. She had been at Clover dale and on her return here at o'clock learned that the treasurer had not been home to dinner. SuspectiDg something wrong she rushed down to the office.
 The door was locked, but by the aid of the janitor she opened the door. Once lnElu6. MFS. SlOten iCuuu her Ioaf6 re- alized. On one desk was her husbands coat; his hat wss on the floor. All in confusion were the money trays in which the treasurer carried the money from the vault to his desk. Soon 6 faint knocking was heard from.inside the vault. Mrs. Stolen succeeded in opening the vault and Treasurer Stofen was found on the floor unconscious. The safe door was open and most of the money gone.
 Treasurer StofeD. when ~he revived, said he opened up the office as usual. at 9 o'clock. As he was carrying out the trays with money from the vault tall man in stocking feet stepped into the door of the vault and with an upifted dagger in his right hand told him to drop the trays He did. As he stopped the robber struck him power ful blow on the back of the head which rendered him uiconscious, for how long he could not tell. He says the man wore chin whiskers and must have gained admlttance to the office during the night and waited for him to open the safe. Officers are securing the country for the robber, but no trace has been found.

BROODED OVER LOSSES.

A Prominent Territorial Insane
 Asylum Patient.
 Sheriff Ros borough of Mohave county arrived in the city yesterday with J. K. Mackenzie of Kingman, who had just been committed to the territorial in- sane asylum. The case is one of un- usual interest. The unfortunate patient was one of Mohave county's most prominent citizens and is at present county treasurer, his term of office ex- piring next Monday. The office is in charge of Deputy Treasurer Dan Smith. The accounts, when MT. Mackenzie's mental condition necessitated his retire. ment, were found to be correct.
 His misfortune is supposed to result from breeding over losses growing out of extensive operations in mining and cattle.
 His trouble began about six months ago. He was confined in a private asylum in California for a short time and has since been at his home in Kingman until his formal examination and commitment.

 The assumption that there will be fight at all is based on the supposition that the prisoners are armed. It is be- leved though that they got arms where they got horses, wherever that was. It IS not believed that the horses were in readiness for them or that they ob tained them near the city or that their flight was continuous. It is no miles from Phoenix to Sentinel. They there fore ought to have got far beyond that in the two nights and two days that had elapsed since their escape.
