Names Of Flowers.

1t is interesting to know how GER
tain flowers get their names. Many
were named after individuals: Fox in
stance: Fuchsias were so called be-
cause they were discovered BY Leon
ard Fuchs. Dahlias were named for
Andre Dahl, who brought them from
Peru. The camelia was so called foc
a missionary named Kamel, who
brought some magnificent specimens
Of the flower to France from Japan.
He called it the rose of Japan, hut
his friends changed 1t to camelia.
Magnolias were named in honor Of
Prof. Maguol de Montpelier, who first
brought the beautiful tree to France
from America and Asia. Because they
trembled with the wind is the mean.
ing of anemones. The Latin word to
wash is lavare, and lavender received
its name because the Romans put the.
flowers into water when they washed
to perfume their hands.

Washington, D. C. - indications
Deem clearly to point TO the United
States government recognizing the
belligerency of the revolutionlSt gov
arnment in Nicaragua under General
Estranda. 1t is not improbable that
public declaration will be made In the
near future. Although the state de-
partment officials decline to discuss
even the probability Of such a course,
the surrounding circumstances would
undoubtedly justify such action, 1T Is
said.
At this moment the insurgent forces
are in practical control of at least one
half of the whole Nicaraguan territory
and have possession OF the entire At
lantic coast line, except from Grey
town, and the blockade from that port
completes the whole line.
Dr. Hazera, the Nicaraguan minister
designate, received from the state de-
partment a note demanding an explain
alton of the execution Of Cannon and
Grace. The preparation Of reply
w
at the legation that Representative
of the incident" had been received
from Zelaya.
1t Is assumed that the press dis.
patches received from Managua were
accurate in the statement that the
men were executed after court mar.
tial trial on a charge that they had
attempted by the use Of dynamite
mines to blow up some Of President
Zelaya's troop transports.
If the department advices confirm
his story the question at issue will
be whether the charge against the
men. assuming that it is proven. justi-
fed their execution.
Probably everything will depend
upon the method pursued by Cannon
and Grace in their attacks upon Ze-
layas forces.
II 1t should appear that the Ameri.
cans slipped within the lines Of the
government force under disguise when
they planted their mines they might
Lc regai ded as spies. and SO subject
10 summary execution. But II they
engaged In their work openly 1t will
probably be held that they should have
been treated as prisoners OF war on
the theory that an attack on a ship by
a mine is a legitimate act of lawful
war.
In the latter case there Is no doubt
that President Zelaya will be called
to account and ample reparation de-
manded.

power site and petroleum deposits,
Secretary Balinger announces the
withdrawal from settlement OF lOca-

These include 1852 acres along the

ever, are embraced in pending claims;
approximately 2O.S2O acres along the
Crooked river; 6,44l acres along the
middle fork of the John Day river;
9,03l acres along the north fork Of the
same river. and 1890 acres along the
south fork
All these Withdrawals are in Oregon
and are believed to contain water site
possibilities.

eight months. The satraps of the Can
non machine will hold a meeting and
pick some man to go to Cannon and
tell him that for the safety of the sys-
TEN he must announce Immediately
his retirement.
The domination of Cannon over his
lieutenants is such that any one of
them would rather meet death than to
face the speaker on this proposition,
because Cannon has no intention OF re-
tring, and will not take kindly to the
suggestion; but he is impossible, and
his lieutenants know it and fear that
II he continues as factor he will
carry the system down with him.
They know that for their own good
the system must be saved. They are
guarding three propositions.
THE first is the right in the speak
arship of inquisitoral recognition The
second, the power which the system
will do everything to preserve, even
to eliminating the present speaker is
the power of the appointment of COM
nittees, under which, as is well
known, part of the house control
hinges.
The third factor of control which
the machine will try to preserve is the
membership of the speaker on the
committee on rules.
The condemnation of Cannon can
no longer be identified as sectional. |
am in receipt of letters from nearly
every section of the country, official
and private alike and all tell the same
tale of widespread determination to
veto the power of this man.
Cannon may not know that he is
gone, probably does not, but his lieu
tenants know it, and from this time
on their whole endeavor will be to
save the system and transmit, unim-
paired. its machinery to another per
sOnality."
