Ten million tons of flax straw are
burned every year on the farms of
this country. In the prodigal waste
of this product of the soil there is
a striking analogy between the posi-
tion of the western farmer Of today
and his earlier prototype Of the
south, prior to the invention of Eli
Whitney's cotton gin in 1893. Up
to that time, cotton, now King Of
the Worlds textile industry, as a
habitat Of the southern house gar
den had little apparent value. 1t
took a whole day to separate the
seed from one pound of the clean
white staple, making its cultivation
for commercial uses an impractica-
BILE, and an expensive business en-
terprise in which few planters dared
to embark. So little cotton was
raised in the states south of Mason
and Dixon's line that the British
Customs officials, thinking they
were being deceived by false in
voices, seized the first eight bales
of 1t entering Liverpool in 1884, on
the ground that such a quantity
could not have been raised in this
country in a single year.
To Whitney, who was a native of
New England, the south owes its
present predominance in this field
His invention, aside from helping to
pay off the south's debts has en-
abled it to develop an industry
which today produces a product of

Providence, r.. l., July 29.-
Rhode Island is having a new poll
tical sensation today. Nelson AL
drich, senate leader, whose with
drawal from the race to succeed
himself, was announced some
months ago through General Bray
ton, the Rhode Island boss, will
probably return to the senate.
Rhode Island is astonished be-
cause continually since his career in
the senate began, the senior senator
from the little state has been stung
to reply to his political enemies and
to answer a political charge. AL
drich is plainly and Enthusiastically
angry at Senator Bristow of Kansas.
and it is generally believed here
that he will go back to the senate
again because of the charges Bris-
tow has made.
Aldrich's replies to questions
about Bristow's charges were in
definite but they indicated heat.
Ilb nus lOAu many libot he hdo
manufactured them so rapidly that
1 would not know where to begin
should take notice Of him and en-
ter denial"
He said a number of other things
Indicating his deep anger at the
charges Brlstow has made but re-
fused to say whether or not he con-
sidered returning to the senate.
Friends of the senator today de-
clare they believe he will go back
and they think Bristow's charges
are responsible for the expected
change of attitude. Bristow charged
that AIdrich secured the advance of
certain schedules in the tariff for
speculative purposes and that he ad-
vanced rates on manufactured rub
ber goods, then helped to form 4
new rubber company.

The Song of the Hermit Thrush.
Far in the depths of the forest
At the dawn of cloudless day,
When the sun gilds the swaying tree
tops
With the gold of its first bright
ray;
When the woodland life awakens
At the touch of the morning
breeze,
And nights shadows fade and vanish
Down long aisles of stately trees;
When the sound of the brooks low
murmur
Comes soft to the listeners ear,
And the messy bank to the waters
edge
Shows the trail of the thirsty deer;
'Tis there in that sylvan silence,
Where the world with it's noise
and strife
For the moment is all forgotten,
In the charm of the woodland life,
1 have heard the divinest music
That ever enraptured the soul;
Music that no earthly minstrel
Fer sang from his masters scroll.
1t touches the chord of sadness
With tenderness all it's own;
Then, rising in strains of gladness,
Tells a story of love and home.
All chat Mendelsshon dreamed of,
Or Mozart in rhapsody wrote;
With the poets song of the ages,
Is 'shrined in that flutelike note. |
And when the singer has ended,
I can feel in that moments hush
I've listened to Gods own music
'Tis the song of the hermit thrush. |

The Blue Roses.

'Will there ever be blue roses? 10
this a well known botanist once re-
piled: I'VE may have a yellow
rose, but it is pretty well agreed that
If we ever sec a blue one it win be
by a process Of continuous variation
and selection"
BY this it is meant that if a blue
rose Is ever produced from a red
variety, for instance, the change
will not be sudden one, a lean
from one color to the other, but the
result of gradual progression
through a series of steps leading
regularly from red to blue

sion through a series of steps lead
ing regularly from red to blue.
In fact, it has been found that
both plants and animals exhibit Al
tendency toward a definite success
sion of cOlors, and certain colors
have been regarded as representing
higher degrees of evolution than

Red is regarded as higher color

FABRIC WITHIN

GREAT COTTON OF OVER
CENTURY AGO.

an aggregatee annual value of $780,
100000. To another Yankee-Ben-
jamin Cushing Mudge-the west is
beholden to a discovery which is as
important in it's relation to flax as
was Whitney's gin to cotton. By it
the waste flax straw is being trans
formed into linen, opening up to the
farmers a new avenue of revenue,
which in time, experts predict will
prove to them bonanza, commen-
surate in value to the first fruits of
the cotton gin.
Out of the ten million tons of
straw heretofore regarded as useless,
this genius, whose processes turn the
flax into fabric for manufacturing
purposes in twenty-four hours, in
contrast to the 80 weeks consumed
in effecting the change abroad, says
he will be able to produce two mill
lion tons of flax fibre. The best
grades are being used to manu-
factWe linen dress goods and fine
table fabrics and the residue towels,
mattresses, etc.
AS the south sought a means of
utilizing cotton to advantage so has
the west for years looked forward
to a solution of it's problem of trans
muting its flax straw into a COM
modify of value. Now that Nudge
has pointed the way by his discov-
cry, many believe it foreshadows the
establishment of new national in
dustry of commanding Importance

Portland, Ore, July 29.-lt was
nearly daylight today when executive
boards of the Portland Building
Trades unions ended the long discus
sion on the strike situation here and
argued out the proposition of wheth-
er it would be best to call out every
union man in Portland in a general
strike.
The situation is acute, and even
conservative members of various
unions admit that before autumn ev-
cry union man in the city may be
called out in a great strike.
The outward cause of the dissatis-
faction is the manner in which a
number Of big business men Joined
the Employers Association, in an
effort to best the striking teamsters.
The real cause of trouble is that
there 81 said to be a deliberate
scheme afoot among certain business
men to drive unions from Portland,
and make it an open shop town.
In Portland and vicinity there are
approximately 1000 union men.
Last nights meeting all but re-
suited in decision to call general
strike Immediately. More conserva-
tive counsel prevailed, however, and
it was finally decided to postpone
such radical action until later, with
the view of ascertaining whether the
employers were willing to meet the
unions half way, and to settle by ar
bitration the various differences Of
opinion now existing.
