In a communication of the 14th
inst, Mr.. A. G. Winslow tries to
make It appear that never read H.
b. No. 81. Isuppose l have read Il
more times than he has as | have the
honor of sending in 240 names for
the referendum and read the bill
to most of them. Also that do not
know that in 1905 and 1906 the spe-
ciel biennial appropriation together
with the standing annual appropria-
tion amounted to $7s,750 a year. l
, would like to say to the gentleman
that the bill does not say anything
about any special biennial appropria-
tions, and is simply an act TO IN
CREASE THE ANNUAL APPRO-
PRIATION. ALL THE ANNUAL.
APPROPRIATION THE u. OF o.
HAS EVER HAD IL THE Si7,5OO,
except as they have worked the legis-
lature and received special biennial
appropriations We still maintain
that the bill is really an increase from
$47,5O to $125,O00 a year and there
Is nothing In II. B. No. 81 to assure
us that they will not work the legis-
lature at each succeeding session for
more and more In the way OF special
biennial appropriation That ballot
wording as prepared by Attorney
General Crawford Is not misleading
and not erroneous and hope II will
60 on the ballots as the attorney gem
eral has it, for / am sure II cannot
be made any palmer. or clearer 10
the voters. It seems that Mr.. Wins
low Is not willing TO let the voters
know how much OF an increase they
are asking for. lie simply wants
them TO think that they need S125,-
900 and vote for Il without knowing
how much the standing annual ap-
proprlatlon has been in the past or
how Il has been used. III III. B. No,
81 contained a clause so they could
not make any special or additional
appropriations In the future, there
would be loss objection 20 81, W
seems that whenever the people OF
Lane county want more money. they
work the legislature for a larger ap-
proprlation and the taxpayers have
20 "dlg up" without knowing how
or what their money Is used for, and
they never get any benefit from II.
would like 20 ask Mr.. Winslow (if
he Is willing to have the people vote
lntelllgently to tell them in his next
article how many instructors are
maintained at the u. of o. and the
salaries OF each and how they wish
TO use this S125,OOO each year? /
think the people have a right to
know how their money is being
used before they vote to give 1t away.

stout hunting knife, linen fishing line and hooks and
a few other things. The boys were to meet in the en-
trance way of the Smithsonian Institute, which looks
as much like an ancient castle any building i'll Amer

contains might lead to suppose that belonged to
another age than ours for there are arrow and spear
heads and stone axes Indian pottery and implements
of primitive descriptive of man as far back as
history and even tradition extend Gerald sat waiting
in dark corner the entrance, for he was few
minutes ahead of the appointed meeting time and the
day was warm. He grew extremely sleepy. Right in
front of him, locked in a large case stood ancient
earthen jar as big almost as half-barrel. 1t was
covered all over with strange figures of primitive war
fare and the chase, antlered deer and other animals
being pursued by fierce looking with matted locks,
wearing skin clothes and brandishing in their hands

CHOW watch me-" quoth Gerald.
He found big grub concealed under stone and,
getting out his fish line, baited hook and cast it of
from the bank. Almost as it touched the water the
white grub was eagerly seized by big bass. Gerald
hauled the Hopping beauty up to the grassy bank
while the gathered around with loud Explanations
to learn by what magic the fish had been caught
Extracting the hook from the bass mouth, Gerald
passed the sharp instrument around.
"Same as knife" said young warrior, "hard and
sharp" Fortunately, Gerald had half a dozen extra
hooks and he gave three of these to the chief The
old warriors grim vsage relaxed into expression of
almost boundless JOY. Of extra line Gerald had but
little, yet he had noticed woman rolling cord from
soft bark and this he concluded would serve for
a strong, if somewhat clumsy fish line.
"The trouble, chief" said Gerald, with knives and
fishing hooks is that you have no way to make them,
but will show you something useful which your own
people can make Bring me some grease" Taking
quantity of animal fat and piece of the bark cord,

clubs and long spears. Several
times while looking at these
queer scenes, Gerald's he a d
dropped drowsily upon his Shout
ders and he almost fancied that
he could really see wild men with
their crude weapons, chasing the
deer.
And then, suddenly something
very peculiar happened. The
glass case and the big building
vanished and Gerald found him
self standing on the grassy bank
of a deep and swift-running
stream, while at a little distance
he saw with establishment,
group oirough, skin-covered huts.
Singing his knapsack across his
shoulder he had just started to-
ward them, when from another
direction burst into view huge
antlered deer closely followed by
a couple of shaggy, wolfsh look
ing dogs. At the same moment
a fierce looking man, with a
piece of deer skin across his
shoulder and strapped about his
waist, stepped out from behind
clump of bushes and posing his
long spear for a moment, hurled
it good fifty feet, striking the
deer fairly in the neck. The big
animal went down with a crash,
and in an instant the dogs or
wolves were nnOn i fearing at

rushed forward beating off the wolf dogs while several
other men, attred like the first, from the woods
and laying hold of the deer dragged toward the camp
AS Gerald approached them, he glanced down and
noticed that he was dressed exactly they and
that he held stout knoted club in his hand while in
his belt stuck sharp flint knife.
"Ah,' he thought to himself, ~ have simply gone

Gerald proceeded by constant
dipping in the heated grease, to
make a small, crude candle,
which burned dimly, but steadily.
"Ah," exclaimed the warriors,
"this is a great invention"
owe have only wood torches,
but our wives can learn to make
candles for the huts. How mar
velous that we have never known
of this"
"Have you a clay bank at
hand?" asked Gerald, and he
called to a youth to bring him a
chunk. Gerald then rolled the
clay out into long strips, which
he wound around in the form
ola spiral, making a crude bowl.

he saw the possibilities of this in

in use were stone bowls or NOR

a cost of most infinite labor.

FULLER'S EARTH
MINES At
QUINCY

- 1t may not be generally known, but
is fact nevertheless, snat Florida
contains some of the purest and most
extensive fuller's earth deposits in the
world and it is also a fact that the
largest plant or mill in the world for
working up this valuable product is
located within a mile of the court
house in Quincy.
The fuller's earth Of commerce is
fine white dust, having the appearance
of flour, meal, or talcum powder, but
that is in its manufactured state.
When taken from the ground or out
of the mine, as it is called, this
soap stone, and no one but chemist
or an expert in this business would be
likely to place much value on the
crude product as it appears when first
taken from the mine.
At the Quincy mine, the Owl Com.
mercial Company has plant for man
ufacturing the crude product which
turns out about 1900 tons per month
This plant is almost like -four mill
the earth being run through dryer
and then ground up, bolted, and sacked
exactly as wheat is ground. bolted
and made into -four.
Manufactured fuller's earth sells foI
s12 per ton at the mill and as pre-
viously stated this mill turns out about
l 300 tons per month, so it is readily
seen that Quincy's income from this
one industry is no small figure in the
course of a year.
"Filtering earth" as it is now some
times called, is much better term
than fuller's earth. 1t is now uset
chiefly for filtering purposes in the re
filming of animal and vegetable oils ant
wax and all petroleum. products Thu
Standard Oil Company uses the mos
of it in this country and large quaint
ties go to Europe.

veloped.
