Silk From Guncotton.

Science threatens to put the silk
worm out of business. French chem
lists have discovered at least three
distinct methods of competing with
the old reliable but extremely delib-
crate silkworm.
Perhaps the most interesting OF
these is the manufacture of silk from
guncotton, which also serves as
base for the most powerful of mod
ern explosives
The viscous fluid from which the
silkworm spins his thread Is chemi-
cally duplicated by process de-
scribed in the Technical World. The
fabric thus produced is inflammable,
and in order to remedy this defect ii
is treated with an alkali sulphide
solution.
The founders of the new industry
have kept in view not SO much the
exact reproduction of natural silk as
the production of substance which
embraces it's valuable properties.
Natural silk possesses to large
degree qualities of brilliancy, elias
ticity, strength, affinity for colorinl
and bleaching materials, and wher
handled a peculiar rustling sound
known as scroop. Perhaps the bril-.
liancy and scroop of silk are tht
best known of its qualities, and it i!
in these two respects that artihcia
silk most closely resembles natura
its brilliancy being greater and its
scroop slightly less.

AFTER RAILROADS
The Acting Postmaster General Pro-
poses to Make Them More
Prompt in Carrying
Mails.

Columbus, O., Aug. "a. = Acting
Postmaster General w. s. Shallen-
berger has issues two notable orders
concerning the railway mail service.
According to an act making appro-
priations for the year ending June
30, 1907, the postmaster general can
fine railroads which carry mail and
which cause unreasonable delay in
arrival and departure of trains. He
has issued orders to railroad compa
nies to show in their quarterly re-
ports the number of minutes late of
each arrival of every train carrying
mail; If thirty or more minutes late
as many as ten times during the
quarter, the extent, cause in detail
and place of each delay being given.
This order will make the railroads
more punctual in the delivery of
mails, or will subject them to q
heavy fine.
The order is deemed necessary to
the proper administration of the rail
way mail business. 1t requires that
the relations between the officers and
employees of the railway mail service
and the railroad companies and other
carrying companies as well as with
their superior officers, shall be re-
spectfully maintained. Railway pos
tai clefas must not criticise or en-
ter into controversies with railroad
officials involving the administra-
tion of the postal service by giving
information to newspapers, or pub
licly discussing or denouncing acts
or omission of the officials as affect
Ing the postal service Clerks, who
violate the instructions will be sub
ject to discipline and possibly re-
moyal from the service

made into the bargain for house
rent. -Hungary's two legisla-
tive assemblies cost the country
about 100000 year in all. Both
in Austria and Hungary legislators
can travel first class with second
class tickets.
Besides the United Kingdom, Italy
and Spain are the only countries
which pay nothing to their members
of Parliament. Nevertheless, the cost
of the Italian Parliament is estimated
at s85,000 a year.
In Portugal also the State does not
remunerate legislators, but they re-
ceive free railway passes. and their
constituencies are legally permitted
to pay those who represent them a
sum of about fifteen shillings for
each day of the session.

tries TO Her Legislators.
The Norwegian member of Par
nament gets only thirteen shillings
day, and If the hard worked legisla-
tor takes day off he loses his pay.
The same is the case with members
of the Swiss Diet. They are rewarded
with sixteen shillings day, on con-
dftion that they do not absent them
selves from work.
To go further East. we find that
Roumanla thinks her lawmakers
worth a1 day Sixteen shillings
day Is the salary of those who COM
pose the Bulgarian Sobranje, but
members who live In the capital get
only twelve shillings daily.
Denmark is about the stingiest of
all European countries, SO far as re-
munerating her lawmakers Is con-
cerned. Danish members of Parlla-
ment get but six shillings eight
pence day; but, on the other hand,
they have the odd privilege of a free
seat in the royal theater In Copen-
hagen.
While the members of the German
Reichstag are not salaried, yet the
lawmakers of the various German
States do not work for nothing.
saxe-coburg members of Parliament
are paid thirteen shillings, OF Ba-
varia ten and of Hesse nine.
At first sight Hungary seems to do
her lawmaking on the cheap plan,

Some time ago Farming stated that
horns on a steer meant reduction of
80 cents per hundredweight in the price
In market. A correspondent assumes
TO correct this statement and says:
'rhe simple presence or absence OF
horns on prime steer does not affect
his value materially, nor Is any atten-
ton paid to this point by buyers Of fat
cattle. If one were buying feeding cat
tie to finish, dehorned ones are more
desirable than horned cattle, especially
when they are to run loose In large
droves that is, not stall fed" Both
wrong, according 10 our experience.
We have seen the presence OF horns on
a carload of fat steers knock consider
able Off their value, but not 80 cents
per hundredweight. The fact is that
killers who have 10 ship their stock
away from the yards want hornless cat
tie, and those who kill right there find
fewer bruises among such cattle. The
hornless steer has very decided adj
vantage for both feeders and slaughter
ers Buyers pay good deal Of atten-
ton to this point here mt Plttsburg.--

TO REPUBLICANS:

We are anxious to have every
Republican in close touch, and work
ing in harmony with the Republican
National Congressional Committee in
favor Of the election Of a Republican
Congress.
The Congressional campaign must
be based on the administrative and
legislative record of the party, and,
that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's
personality must be central figure
and his achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
We desire to maintain the work OF
this campaign with popular subscrip-
tons Of One Dollar each from Repub-
licans. To each subscriber we will
send the Republican National Cam
paign Text Book and all documents
issued by the Committee.
Help US achieve great victory.
JAMES S. SHERMAN, Chairman.
