TALKEDTO GRADUATES
GOV. JOHNSON REC0UNTS THE
VALUE OF OPTIMISM.

CHICAGO. June 5.-The vaiue of opi-
mism was the chord that rang throughout
the address of Gov. John A. Johnson OF
Minnesota before the graduating class
and the students of Armour Institute OF
Technology here tonight His subject
wan THE Resources Of America.
subject he chose. he said because OF MS
conviction that all If his hearers were
optimists. and because that subject was
the most optimistic theme thought upon
by man since Adam discovered hlhsell III
the Garden Of Eden.
1T was my pleasure last month. the
governor said Ito preside for day over
a congress of governors asenfeled from
the capitals of the several states OF the
Union by invitation of the President TO
consider the subject of the conservation
of the natural resources. one might
think, from the nature of the subject
considered. that the resources OF America
were In danger Of depletion But the
facts produced and plans proposed at that
congress by leading authorities In the
nafion.s chief spheres Of industrial ac-
tiyity dealt in and developed anything
except consolation to the school OF pes
simism. 1t was conclusively proved that
the great mine and quarry or American
resources are even tOOtS httlO iioAS eAi'A--

The Country's Resources.
Gov. Johnson discussed at length the
vastness of the country's resources ana
its Industrial development during the last
sixty wears. Continuing. he said:
I'VE now come to the last and most
important factor in the industrial suprem-
acy of the nation namely. labor. de-
sire to place myself on record on this
occasion as denying as false the assump-
ton that American workingmen are not
turning out as great a product In pro-
portion to the wages they receive as the
workingmen of any other country. and
the proof of the falsity of this assump-
ton is in the results themselves and in
the reports thereof by the manufacturers.
l maintain that If there is any necessity
for the American factory and Its pro-
prietary trust to ride behind a tariff wall.
that necessity no longer truthfully can
be laid at the door of American labor.
In proportion to product value received.
the American manufacturer gets from
the American workman the largest re-
turns for the wages paid by any manufac-
turer on the globe

ARIZONA SUITS IT.
Egyptian Cotton Can Be Grown Sue
cessfully in the Southwest.

Washington, april 3.-After years
of unsuccessful effort to introduce
Egyptian cotton into the United States
the bureau of plant Industry of the
department of agriculture reports
that promising results have been Sc
cured in New Mexico and Arizona
Several million dollars worth Of
Egyptian cotton is annually imported
into the United States and it has been
the desire Of the department to de-
velop its cultivation in this country.
DR.. webber. now of Cornell expert
mented with the Egyptian plant in
South Carolina and northern Georgia,
but the climate in those sections
proved too severe. Hybrids cultivated
by DR.. Weber also were unsuccess-
full 1t is believed, however, that the
plant can be successfully cultivated
in northern Florida and southern
Georgia.
The experiments of DR.. Carson, of
Colorado river basin within the past
years have proven successful as much
as 900 pounds of lint having been Sc
cured from one acre last year.
The Egyptian cotton, while not as
valuable as the best grade or Sea Is
land cotton, is considerably more val
liable than the International and spec
linens of sea islands and the upland
varieties. 1t is the strongest variety
of cotton, Of good length and Is used
largely for line laces and the pest
grades OF undergarments.
It takes the mercerization process
better than other cottons and makes
very strong thread.
Seeds from the successful growths
in Arizona are being distributed by
the department.

TREES FOR FEDERATION.
Mrs. Watson, City President, Gives
Members 1000 Shrubs.

At least one past president of the
city federation of women's clubs and
a number of other prominent MEM
bers side-stepped the April meeting
at Unity church yesterday in favor of
Madame Yale's beauty lecture at the
Grand. But, for their sins, the
beauty doctor whom they saw wasn't
half as good looking or as well
dressed as Mrs. F. w. Watson, the
president of the federation in a lovely
new gown in browns and yellow with
her beautiful raven hair artistically
coiffed. Moreover the derelicts were
further "stung' by the beauty lee
turer who told them that beauty is
three-fold, mental and spiritual as
well as physical. In other words,
pretty is as pretty does and there
was Mrs. Watson, not only looking
like a picture but in the very charm

of Arbor day in Topeka by the free

There was a good attendance at the
meeting in spite Of other attractions
and the audience heard a good musi-
cal programme and viewed an inter-
esting art exhibit by Mrs. Helen 1.

THIRD BIG DAM.
And Second Largest In the World on
the Missouri.

Helena, Mont, April 3.-M. H.
Gerry, jr., manager OF the Helena
Power Transmission company this
morning announced that material has
been ordered for the construction OF
the second largest dam in the world.
This will be known as the third dam
on the Missouri river 80 miles from
Helena. When completed, it will not
only irrigate thousands of acres of
land in this section, but will furnish
power for plants in Helena, Butte and
Anaconda. BY July L more than 500
men will be employed on the con-
struction work.
The immensely of the undertaking
is seen by the fact that $4,000 bar
rels of cement will be used. Loaded
on cars. this would compose q train
nine miles long. One thousand tons
OF steel will also be used. The pro-
ject Is backed by Former Governor
Samuel T. Hhuser and New York cap
italists.

MRS. DoUGHERTY NOT A SISTER
Police Made q Mistake in, McCabe
Scandal Story.

In the State Journal article Thurs
day about the troubles of Mr. and
Mrs. McCabe the day before, men
ton was made OF the fact that Mrs
Geo. Dougherty, living at Alb Quincy
street. was sister Of Mrs. McCabe
and had accompanied her to the sta
ton the afternoon of the trouble. In
formation to this effect was given by
one Of the officers who made the ar
rest of McCabe and Mrs. Campbell,
but it IS q mistake. Mrs Dougherty
had nothing at all to do with the
matter. nor is she a sister of Mrs
McCabe. The sister who accom-
panied the wife to the station Is Miss
Emma Harris, living on Jefferson
street. The officers mistake in
identity doubtless arose from the fact
that Mrs. McCabe called on Mrs
Dougherty on the afternoon of the
trouble.

PUT IN new FRONTS.
The Palace Clothing Co., and Halls
Plan Improvements.

Building fronts will be torn down
to give way to a more modern type
of construction If the plans con-
tenn plated by the Palace Clothing
company, 709-711 Kansas avenue and
the Hall Stationery company, 623
Kansas avenue, are carried out.
The Palace Clothing company con-
front at I'll and rebuilding it SO
that it will be uniform with the type
of architecture of the front of the
building at ZOE. The former building
represents an old type of construc-
ton.
The Hall Stationery company will
probably tear out of the front of the
building and rebuild 1t with buff
pressed brick and light colored
enamel.
These improvements will run well
up into the thousands of dollars.
