CHERRY NINE SEALED
Experts Decide II Is OnIY
Van to StOD the Fire.

Cherry ILL.,, Nov. 25.--The St. Paul mine
was sealed early to-day. The fire was
gaining such Roadway that it was thought
best 10 cut of all air in the shaft The
mine will probably remain sealed for
several weeks. OF the 80 men entombed
only twenty were rescued alive. and one OF
these died after reaching the surface.
1t was agreed TO seal the mine at meet
ing held here early to-day between the en-
tire state mining board, Battalion Chief
Mcdonald, OF the Chicago Fire Depart
ment. and W. W. Taylor. general superin-
tendent OF the Chicago. Milwaukee & st.
Paul Company's mines.
Battalion chief Mcdonald. after an in
spection OF the work being accomplished
by his men, who had oeen throwing water
in the east bottom Of rae mine for more
than a week, advised the state mine in
spectors and the representatives OF the
coal company that the water being thrown
into the mine was not reaching the fire.
and that he saw no use Of throwing in
any more water as Il was merely filling
Up the third vein. Bodies of the known
dead in that vein are already inaccessible.
owing to the quantity Of water thrown into
the mine. and 10 increase this amount of
water. Mcdonald said. would delay re-
COvery OF the bodies indefinitely
Mr.. Williams. OF the Urbana rescue sta
ton, who had been keeping careful note OF
the gases formed In ,he mine. reported
that the fire had extended TO the coal pill
lar and forming dangerous gases and
making IT perilous for .escuers TO continue
al work. After considerable discussion and
a careful going over of all phases of the
situation. il was unanimously agreed that
the only thing that would make possible
ultimate recovery OF the tOdies in the mine
was to seal up both the main shaft and
the air shaft and keep them sealed until
the cutting off OF the air smothered the
fiTe. The Shafts We're thereupon sealed.

The horses attached TO an engine in

AT the rushing water ana started 20 run

COTTOW- ON

Cotton has within itself, under the guiding
hand of the country which produces 1t, the
power to bring about ultimate worldpeace.
The United States, by prohibiting the eXporta-
ton of raw cotton cargoes to England, Ger
many France Italy and Switzerland, could IN
fict hopeless industrial paralysis and financial
panic upon those lands The balance of power
is in our hands to a most remarkable degree,
but we treat 1t with Indifference.
One word from America that it would with
hold supplies of cotton would bring all Eu-
rope to terms of comfy.
In the meantime. and until we reach the re-
alization of the potency Of cotton, If nations
continue to waste their substance land their
purchasing power), in war; cotton will con-
tinue to be found indispensable in conflict. 1t
is guncotton that hurs destruction through the
ranks and 1t is cotton that binds up the
wounds of the fallen. The Japanese in their
recent war, through an unrivaled system or
surgery and hospital service, reduced the
death-rate of the wounded to an unprecedent-
ed minimum. Without cotton that would have
been impossible. And it is in cotton khaki
that the armies march. And they make their
bivouacs under cotton tents.
Cotton is indeed first in war, it is first
in peace
Now we are entering a age, the age Of
aerial flight, and the aeroplane is a cotton
chariot! On these wings of cotton we have be-
gun to fly through the heavens at SO and 40
miles an hour, and the end is not yet.
It is easy to forget, or at least to fail to keep
Charlevoix county herald., 1909-10-09

fraudulent, as so much cotton could not posi-
bly, be produced in one year in America, In
Napoleons campaigns thousands of the wound
ed could nave been saved had there been an
adequate supply of cotton for bandages
Before Eli Whitneys time it took a man in
his home two years to separate one bale OF
cotton from the seed The yield of cotton thus
handicapped on its way to the wearer was un-
important There had been cotton from re-
mote antiquity. The mummies of Peru were
wrapped in it. The ancient Hindus wove it,
and by some forgotten art the weaving was
5000 times finer than is TO be found in any OF
the fabrics of modern times Cotton was a
sacred thread among the Brahmaus, and the
theft of it serious crime. In the gardens of
Chinese temples at the present day a special
variety of cotton-plant Is found which is no
where else grown. From it's yield the vest
ments of the Confucan priests are made.
Great Britain mas made an organized and
scientific effort TO raise a supply that would
make her Independent of America, for the
statesmen of that empire foresee the possibili-
ties of the day when America, rising to
recognition of her right will manufacture her
own cotton and sell IL to the world. But Great
Britain with her grip upon all available areas,
after many years of unsuccessful effort, has
had to and must come continually TO America
for her supply
The Standard Oil Company has made it pos
sible to illumine millions of homes that other
wise would be in darkness, but this has been
made practicable only through the cotton
wick. When you are born they wrap you in
