IN FLAX
What to Do With the Straw, Is the
'.~ Question. f
NOW MOST %r IT is BURNED
Railroads Working on Problem--A
New Flax Reaper That
Promises Much.

How to make the fax crop more re-
munerative to northwestern farmers and
thereby increase railway traffic in and out
OF the flax country, is a problem which
some northwestern railroads are trying to
solve. Investigations are being made
looking toward process for saving the
flax fiber for textile purposes.
The northwestern farmer raises flax en-
tirely for the seed. What he realizes
from the straw is incidental. In the big
flax country in North Dakota most of the
straw is burned, some Of it is shipped to
be manufactured into tow for upholster-
ing purposes and very small percentage
is used in the paper industry. - =,
The railroads, on the hunt for new ideas
to increase traffic, realize that if the
straw can be made to furnish raw ma
terial for textile industries a new oppor..
| tunfty for the fax farmer will be found
Present methods of reaping fax de-
stroy the fiber in the plant for textile
purposes. The reaper cuts it off several
inches above the gorund. How to save
| the long fiber is the problem For; some
| time the government has been bringing
this to the attention of inventors through
| various publications. Railroads have also
assisted in the movement through their
| industrial departments. One of the re-
suits is the invention of a machine for
reaping fax which instead CT cutting the
plant several inches above ground pulls
| it up, root and all, and binds it as the
| regular reaper does. It is understood that
one of the big Chicago machine companies
has become interested in the machine and
will announce results of the test this fall
il 1t is successful. If the new invention
works we'll. campaign Of education on
the saving Of flax fiber will be begun on
large scale by some Of the northwestern
| railroads.

EDUCATIONAL PLANK
Populists Want More Of the nThree
:4 R's'' in Public Schools. "#
z. H. AUSTIN EXPLAINS MATTER
He Shaped the Plank and Says
~" Prominence VIII Be
.-. Given 1T.

Minnesota populists demand in their
state platform, and on the stump in the
coming campaign will argue for, absolute
enforcement of common schools and the
university and return to the old scheme
OF common school education defined as the
three RS" One of the planks Of the
platform adopted at Wednesdays conven-
tion Of the party says:
We demand that as far as possible the COM
mon schools of the state should be divorced
from the university system, and more
thorough instruction be given in the rfunda-
mental branches of common school education
Inasmuch as nothing Of this sort had
ever been included in a Minnesota popu-
list platform before, the plank called for
an explanation. S. M. Owen, veteran
leader in the populist party councils of
the state, declared that he knew nothing
about the inspiration for this particular
plank. Still others Of the faith declar I'd
their inability to throw any light on the
matter. q. H. Austin, however, admitted
that he was responsible for the introduce
ton of this plank, and here is his explain
alton of his move:
That statement represents, in my opinion.
the sentiments Of the populists of Minnesota
and hosts Of other people through the state,
especially in the country districts. They are
dissatisfied with the character Of the instruc-
ton being given in the schools. They believe
that the common schools are being dis
criminated against financially in favor of the
university and that undue prominence is be-
ing given to college preparatory work.
The curriculum Of the common schools of
the state has OF late years been changed to
work for the interests of the university only,
and practical education of the masses has
suffered We need to get back to tho prin-
ciple of the three RS We want an abso-
lutte separation between the common schools
and the university. There should be no more
connection between them than between the
university and the state penitentiary. The
present system that puts all pupils through q
course Of instruction to fit them for university
work is wrong. 1t is taking the backbone
right out of our educational system.
There is too much Hebrew and Sanscrit and
such things and not enough Of the old-tlme
rudiments. In my native state of Missouri
there is no connection between the COM
mon schools and the university, and the
schools there are doing a much more prac-
teal and thorough work than we are doing
in Minnesota. Massachusetts, Missouri and
Texas all divorce their common school educa-
tion from the university work, and those
three states lead the whole country in edu-
cational methods and results. We are going
to push this plank of our platform right up
to the front this year and let the people
understand the real facts of our educational
tendency.

HILL SEEKS A PORT
Said to Be Backing Expedition to
Hamilton's Inlet.
IT'S NEAREST TO LIVERPOOL.
Arthur, Through a New
Country.

James J. Hill is said to be the principal
promoter. Of the expedition which will
make complete investigation Of north
ern Canada, and especially the country
from the coast of Labrador to Hudson's
Bay. On July there sailed from Boston
party OF railway engineers, naturalists,
and scientists under the command OF
Col Willard Glazier, a veteran explorer.
The party has the full Endorsement and
encouragement of the Canadian govern
ment, and will begin operations at Ham
ilton's inlet, a splendid natural harbor on
the Labrador coast.
Mr.. Hill has been much interested in
the wild country in northern Canada for
several years. He has made several sum-
mer expeditions to Labrador and is at
present making complete Investigation
of the Labrador coast line in a private
yacht. It is believed that he is consid-
ering the possibilities of Hamilton's inlet
as port, because of the fact that it is
500 miles nearer to Liverpool than any
other port on the Atlantic coast. Ham
iltons inlet is 1,400 miles as the crow
flies from Port Arthur on Lake Superior.
Most Of the intervening country has never
been explored to any extent and Mr.. Hill
desires to know its possibilities. The
present expedition will make careful re-
port on the country not only from a
scientific but from an agricultural and
railway standpoint.

James Gray Files Affidavit as Cam
1dtdate for Mayor.
James Gray is a candidate for mayor.
He set all doubts at rest yesterday by
filing his affidavit with the county auditor
as a candidate for the democratic nomina-
tion., AS stated in T h e Journal a
week ago, he gave private assurance at
that time to some Of his political friends,
promising to announce his candidacy
within q few days. -
The contest for the democratic nomina-
tion promises to- be a warm one. Helm
rich. first in the field, has acquired quite
a following in the first, third, and other
heavily democratic wards. J. C. Haynes
is expected to announce his candidacy,
and will run well especially on the East
Side. Tom Lally's candidacy is not re-
garded very seriously, but as far as 1t
goes it will cut into the Heinrich vote.
Former Mayor Gray has strength in
every part of the city, and at this stage
is picked as the winner. The police
officers discharged by Mayor Anes have
pinned their hopes to Gray.

TO STAMP OUT RABIES

Tax for the Purpose.

DR.. BrimhaH Suggests. Csc OF Dog
Tax for the Purpose.
In his quarterly report to the state
board of health, DR.. Brimhall. state vet
erinarian, calls attention to the fact that
rabies is widely scattered through the
western and southern parts of the state,
and he recommends that some radical ac-
tion be taken to stamp out the disease.
There have been outbreaks Of rabies In
eight different counties Of the state this
year, he says. DR.. Brimhall suggests
the enactment Of a dog tax law, the fund
accumulated by it to be used in compen-
sating owners of stock for losses caused
by the attacks of rabid dogs. He also
recommends dog muzzling law to apply
to the whole state. =:
