Savannah. Ga. Aug. S1.-A well
founded movement has been started
looking to the erection in this city of
a monument to the memory of Eli
Whitney. the inventor of the cotton
gin. A nucleus for the fund has al
ready been subscribed. the list of
subscriptions being headed by James
Brandon. OF New York, the inventor
OF a recent improvement over the
Whitney patents. The canvass for
funds will embrace all the cotton fac
tories in this country and in Europe
There is now no monument to Whit
ney in existence.
The monument VIII be erected upon
the exact spot upon the old Greene
plantation, near Montieth. a few miles
above Savannah, upon which stood
the workshop of the great inventor.
The monument will face the public
road and will bear suitable inscrip-
ton concentrating the work OF the
inventor II will be pretentious and
imposing. or only a simple shaft, ac-
cordlng as the ginners and the spin
ners of the country respond heartily
or otherwise to the call for subscrip-
tons The promoters or the move
ment believe that this tribute to the
man whom Lord Macauley said: Did
more for America than Peter the
Great did for Russia" has already
been TOO long delayed.
The invention OF the cotton gin
links the city of Savannah closely 10
the cotton trade. The invention of the
gin was as great factor In cotton
raising development as the inventions
~ Arkwright were In manufacture.
The machine did away with the ted
ious and unsatisfactory hand method
of separationg the cotton from the
seed Almost Immediately tht acreage
in cotton Increased largely. Savan-
nah handled very little cotton until
after Whitney constructed his gin.
The then Yankee school teacher set
up the FIRST model of his invention in
1898.
Besides being credited with the in
ventlon of the gin, Savannah export
cd the first bag OF cotton ever sent
from America to a foreign country II

BLUE STAR BALL ATTENDED
BY MANY; GREAT SUCCESS

Everything was just as lovely as
could be and everyone seemed to have
a good time" This IS the way one
Houghton matron described the sec
ond annual Blue star BAH given under
the auspices of the Houghton County
Anti-Tuberculosis society at the AM
phidrome hall last night. 1t is probable
that nearly every person who attended
the function would have made some
such similar remark IL asked his or her
opinion, as there was a large and
compatible crowd in attendance.
The neat and tasty manner i'm which
the hall was decorated for the affair,
ferns and flowers forming the prinei-
pal parts of the scheme of decoration,
speaks well for the committee which
worked under the direction of Miss
Estelle Hanchette of Hancock The
music. which seemed 10 suit the taste
of the dancers exceedingly wen, was
furnished by a select orchestra of the
Calumet & Hecla organization person
ally directed by Director Barnard. The
other big feature in evidence at the
party of last night was the tasty lun-
cheon. which was served in the inter-
mission under the guidance of Mrs.
L. L. Hubbard of this village. who
was general chairman Of the ball
committee of the function and chair
man of the refreshments committee.
People from all over the copper
country came to the party, many being
from Calumet, while the range towns
and the other centers of population
throughout the section were well rep
resented. Not nearly all of the peo-
pie who purchased tickets attended
the affair and the net result OF the
function. financially. will be the addi-
ton to the nurses fund of a tidy little
sum. This years ball was a greater
success than was that Of last year and
the promoters attribute this princi-
pally 10 the fact that those on the
various committees worked faithfully
and well, although some of the success
of the affair must be credited TO the
fact that the people of the county have
a better idea of the nature of the So
ciety's work now than ever before.

VICE PRESIDENT SCHUMACHER
MAKES A CORRECTION

"Please correct something hat was
published in a morning paper here in
Salt Lake Friday morning that I did
not say and would not say because it
is On its face untrue" said vice-Presi-
dent L. M. Schumacher of the West
ern Pacific, in the Knutsfort hotel.
Il was quoted as saying that through
traffic would not move over the West
ern Pacific until about the first Of
june when the fact is that through
traffic has been going over the West
ern Pacific now for over six weeks.
Today | received a telegram from New
York asking about the matter, as evi
IDENTIFY the false report was wired to
the east.
1.-THE Western Pacific may not
put on passenger trains till June, but
that is an entirely different matter
from through traffic. which 9
freight. You might as well confuse a
handear and a diner, and say that the
road was going to put first-class hand
cars on all its passenger trains when
we put on the diners. / want the wild
est possible report given to the fact
that the Western Pacif is open for
through traffic today and has been for
over six weeks, trains running each
way daily, all carrying through traffic
coming from all over the east and go
ing to the Pacific coast, and the re-
verse. Anything to the contrary is alb
surd, and never came from any one &C.
quainted in the slightest degree with
railroading.
"Here is another item, through
traffic not accepted till price is com
pleie.' That sentence means nothing
in itself and would not be true if It
did mean anything. We are accepting
all the through traffic we can get, in
fact, we are straining every nerve to
get all the through traffic we can, the
more the better, and such m~isstate-
ments only put stumbling blocks in our
way
us there any truth in the rumor
that the Goulds will soon have a sys-
tenn reaching from ocean to ocean, or
from Pittsburg to the Pacifc?' MI.
Schumacher was asked.
NONSENSE! At Denver the Denver
& Rio Grande will deliver or accept
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1910-02-01

freight from all other roads on equal
terms. There is nothing and can be
nothing in such a report.
Concerning appointments, I do not
care to announce any more for a
month or two yet. Mr.. Nevins is
slated for general livestock agent. but
the matter is not yet made official.
"On through traffic from Chicago,
just what part Of the rate goes to zach
road taking part in the haul I do not
care to say at present. 1t is not yet
settled. Our passenger service will be-
gin as soon as the weather permits,
probably by late spring. 1t woull
not be prudent to put fast passengers
on a new track in winter.
81 have had no conversation with
Mr.. Cutter of the Tonopah & Gold
field and the Western Pacific will not
build south to get the Los Angeles
traffic.
"But please correct that false re-
port that the Western Pacific is not
open for through traffic. 1t is open for
through traffic, and we want ali we
can get"
Concerning the routing of freight
over various roads it was pointed out
by a traffic man that the shipper has
the final say in the matter, and that
freight goes much as a passenger goes,
over whatever routes the man who
pays the bill chooses. Thus freight
might leave San Francisco over the
Western Pacific, then take the Union
Pacific to Denver and the Rock Island
to Chicago, if the shipper routes it that
way. The mere fact that the freight
left San Francisco I'VE the Western
Pacific would give that road no power
to send the freight on east over the
Denver & Rio Grande or any other
road than the one specified by the ship
per, the owner Of the freight.-Salt
Lake Tribune.

Notwithstanding the great advan-
taxes possessed by the Southern States
for profitable hog-raising, about so
per cent annually Of all the pork con-
sumed in those statea is imported.
This should not be so. With our facil-
ities for producing cheap feed, we
should export and not import hog
products. There are some features in
hog raising that should appeal to
every thoughtful farmer. No other
neat-producing animal is capable Of
producing 30 many young in q year.
In our mild climate where suitable
pastures can be provided for nearly
every month In the year. the SOW
should farrow twice annually, produce
ing one litter in early spring which
can easily be made ready for the late
fall or early winter market, and an
other litter in early fail to be made
ready for the spring market. The
small amount Of capital required to
begin with and the quick returns on
the investment should make hog rails
Ing especially attractive to the small
farmer with limited means. The hog
will make pound Of gain on less food
than most live stock. and will profit
ably utilize the waste products around
the farm, dairy and kitchen.
No man should attempt to raise
hoss without adequate pastures. For
