FLAX FIBRE PLANT
May Be Constructed on the FreepOrt
Paper Mill Property.

Messrs. A. G. Place and j. f.. Lap
pen, of Milwaukee, have been in the
city for several days, specializing as to
the advisability of purchasing the
Freeport paper mill property, on
which to establish a plant for manu-
featuring flax fibre. The latter gentle
man has invented process whereby
flax straw can be converted into flax
fibre i'm 35 minutes, without any loss in
strength or quality This process will
doubtless revolutiOnize the fibre busi-
ness of the country and as the demand
for this fibre is so great, we would be
glad to see such an establishment here
There is an excellent flax produc-
ing country hereabOuts, and this is the
sidering this location. They would
men. They ask no bonus whatever;
their only proposition is this: The
river, as it flows east toward the Free
port bridge has turned out of its regu-
lar channel, making circle to the
south and back again to the bridge. 1t
is continually washing away more
ground and whenever the water is
high flows over the road south of the
DTluSe. lHeSS IlleIl Wdul lIle DOdCu VI
Supervisors to build levee along the
south side of the river for distance of
some 800 feet, which will keep the
river in its regular channel and stop all
further liability to expense. They
think it would cost them about $1,000.
The county has already expended $1,000
in driving piles, etc., and the condi-
ton is practically no better than before.
These men will put in a 800 foot dam
with sluice gates for use i'm times of
high water, thus keeping the river
within proper bounds, provided they
decide to establish the plant here. 1t
seems to us to be thoroughly business
like proposition. Some day the county
will be compelled to build this levee,
as it should have done long ago, and it
will cost them more money than now.
We hope that this plant may be located
at Freeport, for it will bring large
amount of capital to Decorah, and fur
nish employment to large number of
men. If the main factory is erected
here branches will probably be built
at Austin, Preston, Charles City, Ft.
Dodge, or points in like locations. The
company expects to consume 30 to 40
tons of flax straw per day, which would
place large amount of money into
the hands of our farmers.

The independence Excursion.

One of the largest and most enjoy
able excursions ever taken out of De-
corah was the Y. M. G.. A. trip to In
dependence last Thursday. The day
was beautiful one, for the rain of the
night before had laid the dust, and
left the atmosphere clear and pleasant.
About 500 left Decorah on two trains
and over 200 Joined us on the way
down. Immediately upon arrival at
Independence the people were trans
ported by street cars to Fairview Park,
where basket picnic dinner was en-
ioyed after which the city and
insane hospital was viewed by the
visitors. At two o'clock a base ball
game between the Y. M. G.. A. senior
teams of Decorah and Independence
began. They played six innings re-
sulting in a score of Is to 0 i'm favor of
Decorah. Following this the junior
clubs of the two cities crossed bats for
five innings, the Independence team
winning by the score of to 5. During
the ball games concerts were given by
the Iowa State Hospital Ba nd and De-
corah City Band. After supper one
train was filled and started for home
at seven O'Clock, the other being held
until 500 p. m. The Decorah City
Band gave concert on one of the
principal business streets, the Inde-
pendence people and visitors compli-
menting their playing very highly.
The trip home was very enjoyable
one, arriving in Decorah shortly before
midnight. The entire crowd seemed
to enjoy the days vacation very much,
and are indeed grateful to the Inde-
pendence people for the royal reception
given them

TO PUBLISH THE LAWS.
A Bill to be introduced To-Day in
Both Legislative Houses.

J. p Baumgartner. President of the
Southern California Editorial Associa-
ton. has drafted an important bill
which Will be introduced into the lower
house to-day by Assemblyman Linden
berger, and also into the Senate by
some member of that body.
The bill. as Will be seen by the full

ed by the author and 50 ordered by the

signature of the Governor, become laws
of the State The insertion Of publica-
ton clause in any bin insures such
newspaper publication.
President Baumgartner believes that
his measure provides for the correc-
tion of many existing evils: that not
only will the public be better instructed
ia the laws, but that vicious legisla-
zion. whether Intentionally or acciden-
tally harmful, win be in great measure
checked by this practical application

A GOOD EXAMPLE.
Does Every Year What Some rIen
Don't Do in Lifetime.

Il believe" remarked the hotel clerk
to a group of listeners, according to the
Washington Star that the most
patriotic men we have in the United
States are the travelling salesmen.''
And why they?" inquired a member
of Congress-
Because they know the country bet
ter than any other class and see it in
all its sections and are among the
classes who maintain it and make it
possible for the rest of us to live with
a great deal more ease than we might
otherwise. Now, there's one who went
out of the office just as the gentleman
from New York came in. That man
travels for a Boston house and his
territory extends from Maine to South
ern California, and he makes the trip
every year, stopping usually in the big
cities, but taking many of the others
in on his way.
He has been doing it for years, until
he knows the people of the country in
every State, and / have yet to hear
him say bitter thing or q foolish
one about sectional peculiarities or diff
ferenceS. He is too broad for that
that is to say, he is too patriotic. Then,
again, he comes to Washington once a
here so that he may feel the sense of
Government by contact With It, to walk
about the streets of the Capital of the
Nation, to look at the magnificent
buildings of Government ownership, to
stand in the glorious beauty of the
g1andest building on earth, to sit for
q time in the halls of legislation and to
experience for a brief season some OF
the material results of his citizenship
of the proudest republic the sun ever
shone upon"
There was a round of applause for
the clerks presentation of the case.
Don't do it, gentlemen" he said,
waving it off Those are not my
words, but the words of that travelling
man. He is the broadeSt minded citi-
zen, the firmeSt patriot and the squar-
est man [ know, and if it were possible
to have Il nation of his kind it would
be possible to make one nation of the
whole world. He has been in Washing
ton for three days and when he leaves
tomorrow he viii take with him more
than 100 books containing pictures OF
| the city and it's great buildings, which
he Will distribute among the children
of the men he meets in a business way
and who will never be able to get to
Washington to wander mid its beauties
and learn here among its marble walls
! and pillars the all-important lessons
which they teach and which every
American should learn. l presume he
has distributed thousands of these pic
lures and has been a Well-spring of
patriotic sentiment to hundreds OF
young men and women in every State
of the Union. Who can say as much
for himself?" And even the Congress
