No Sympathy for the
Lily Whites.

" ulCH - DIX dLlOu pdpCl
expresses the following interesting
editorial opinion on the defeat of
the LILY Whites:
"rhe Lily Whites Of the South
were soundiy drubbed on Tuesday,
and nobody that believes in far
play and straightforward dealing
in politics will regret it. They
deserved that fate, if men ever did
in this world. Cheek may lie
looked for in the political game,
and it sometimes WINS, but just
such display of that article as
was made by the men who organ
lied and led the Lilly White move
men, in the campaign just closed
has seldom been Witnessed.
"Some had previously been
Democrats, but had come out oil
the Democratic Party, as they
claimed, because Of faith in the
Republican national policies.
they were sensitive on the subject
of their associates, and stipulated
that their local allies must all be
white men. The beneticiaries for
years, as they frankly confessed,
Of violence and fraud at the polls,
they now stood forth as the com
panions of responsibility i'll poll
tics and modestly offered them
sevles as leaders in inaugurallng a
new order of things. A little
weary of the ballot box stuffing,
and the falsifed tally sheets which
had characterized local elections
for so many years, and the fruits Of
which they had willingly shared,
these superior spirits now de-
manded change of parties for the
South. But, of all things, it must
be respectable
''Strangely enough, among those
who responded to this remarkable
call, were a few men who had all
their lives been Republicans; had
never apologlzed for their affilla
tons, had been active in advocacy
of their party's principles, and
personally had protited by their
activity. They had ;adyised the
often to his advantage
and uplifting as a ctlizen-had ac-
,eptd his vote for Office, and on
the strength of his support had at
,ained some distinction at home.
But now they were willing, in an
effort 10 hold on to what the ne
gro had helped to bestow upon
hem, to cut his political acqaln-
;ance and unite for future work for
ais open enemy, They grasped
he hands of those whom they had
repeatedly denounced for all the
crimes in the calendar. and by
whom they had been in turn as
'oundly denounced, and soaped up
md declared ostentatiously for sre-
probability
"'rhe whole thing, of course. got
o be riotously absurd. The more
be thoughtful people reflected
lpon it, the less use they had for
t, and what they did to it when
lection day rolled around is luml-
ously displayed in the returns

ippl, Louisiana and North Caro-

Rome. Aug. 22.-According to per-
fsons usually well informed considera-
BILE importance attaches to the visit of
King Victor Emmanuel to Emperor
William. The king, accompanied by
the Italian minister of foreign affairs
and a small suite, left for Berlin today.
Despite the denials from certain quar-
ters it is quite generally believed that
the object of the visit is to propose a
reduction in continental ornaments.
This is reported to have been the pur-
pose of his recent visit to the czar,
from whom he is said to have received
every encouragement. The great
Roman bankers believe something will
come of the project. The young king
has taken the step on his own initia.
tive, though it is understood to have
the full sanction of the Italian govern
ment. Much hope is expressed for the
success of the design as partial disar
mament would lift crushing burden
from the shoulders of the Italian peo
pie.

NEGOTIATIONS to be Reopened.

London, Aug. 22.-Sir Robert Bond,
the premier and colonial secretary of
New Foundland, sailed yesterday for
Montreal on the Allan line steamer
Pretorian, on his way to Washington
with full powers from the imperial
government to reopen negotiations
through the British charge d'affaires
for the ratification of the Bond-Blaine
convention, a special agreement en-
tered into about ten years ago between
the late James G. Blaine, then secre-
tary of state, and the premier OF New
FoundlaRd. The convention, on the
part of New Foundland, granted Unit
ed States fishermen considerable privi-
leges in regard to purchasing bait, and
largely reduced the duties on consid
cradle class of American imports into
New Foundland. The United States
on its side, opened its market to New
Foundland fishers of raw products and
confirmed Ine privileges of transporta
ton of fresh fish in bond to the United
States markets.

FLAX STRAW.
Experiments Being Made with Flax
Fiber for Twine.

Fargo, N. D., Aug. 22.-Secret expert
ments with fax fiber for binding twine
have been so successful that indica-
tions now are an industry will be de-
veloped in the northwest which will
save the farmers millions of dollars an
nually. Since the development of the
flax fiber mills in this state progress
sive farmers concluded that the tow
could be converted into form OF bind
ing twine. Tests were quietly made
until recent experiments show a grade
of twine of lighter weight and far SUI
perior quality to the best qualities now
on the market. North Dakota raises
more flax than all other sections of the
United States and the millions OF tons
of straw can be converted into tow
here and shipped to the twine factories
and converted into the much desired
product. 1t is believed that the new
plan of manufacturing would be much
cheaper and that a supply adequate to
the needs of all the northwestern
states could be turned out.
