RAGS AND HISTORY.

The scientific historian of the next century
compiling the annals of our own times will be
confronted with an insurmountable obstacle
lie will naturally wish to come in imaginative
touch with our daily life, to see us as we are
at work and play to watch us on the streets, in
the shops, the factories, the theaters the court
house, the churches, and at the polls We be-
queath him but one intimate and comprehensive
view OF Ourselves-to be found in the perishable
files of our daily press Seeking the requests
he may find it, but, if not as mere dust, then
as utterly illegible print on cracking yellow
paper. The Bible which sold for $4,000 the
other day may still be read; it is quite unlikely
that one of our own date of half its age will
survive for the future collector. This is be-
cause in the manufacture of paper the lowly rag
has been superseded by wood pulp 1t would
be idle to expect the newspapers of today from
sheer sympathy with the needs of succeeding
generations to run off special edition printed
on durable paper; but it was proposed in all
seriousness some 20 years ago that this be done
more feasible plan for the preservation of
the only daily record Of events would be the
storage OF files IN some sunlight vault-say in
the congressional library at Washington There
IS much talk just now of the discovery of "a
new sources OF supply for print paper in the
tropics This Is the bamboo, and it is claimed
that It's pulp will probably compensate in full
for that OF the vanishing spruce But it is all
one, so far as longevity Of fiber is concerned
NO wood pulp can take the place of flax 1t
Is an ldronlca paradox on our luxurious times
that we are needy because of lack of rags.

BREWERS BRIBE TO TEXAS.

The last breeze from Texas brings sig
nlficant aftermath of the Saturday clash. Calves
ton announces that 'the brewers have agreed
to set aside 100000 fund annually, and to
be responsible for the enforcement of saloon
laws, if the prohibitionists will accept their
statewide election defeat as settled y This is
good buslness-for the brewers Having spent
nearly one million, nearly which is con
servatvely accounted two millions, the brewers
VIII be making very wise expenditure of
$4,000 in ''cinching" the fraudulent result
accomplished by the use of four times that sum
Evidently the brewers of Galveston have some
trepldatlon as to whether or not this $500 900
brbe could be used with entire satisfaction in
the legislative inquiry into the dark mazes of
the by-gone election. Therefore it is rendered
direct to the enemy in such a frank and naive
manner as to shame all cries of corruption We
fear that the Texas drys will feel compelled to
decline this cash indemnity for the indicpities
heaped upon the ballot box They seem to have
clear ease to go before the legislature and
100000 is not near the proper price to offer
patriotic sons of the Alamo as compensation for
the surrender of their right of suffrage to the
galveston brewers and their following of ne
groes, Mexicans and slummes Aud our under
standing of the ardent Texan is that he is ne
cullarly tenacious of the right of self-goyern
ment. and that he has no desire to see the rens

PRODUCING ORE FROM

GOLDFlELD, New, Aug. 12.-

MAKING THE CANAL READY.

1t is quite improbable that Colonel Goethal s
plan for one-man control of the Panama canal
zone will receive the sanction of congress. Never
theess there is admirable force in his line of ar
gument. Under his plan the authority Of the
man selected would be absolute and supreme
1t is hardly to be expected that under the
flag Of this free republic is to be created little
absolute monarchy to separate from the free
republics on the south Yet, in the main, Mr.
Goethals' logic is fautless from the business
point OF view. The division and confusion of
authority he speaks of probably awaits us
Onema authority had to be substituted for
scattered responsibility and resulting delay and
inefficiency i'll the construction of the canal
before the dirt was made to fly to the salts
faction Of the public.
Under this one-man control we are able to
point the world to a splendid record of actual
achievement III canal construction. The digging
had to be oneman job, far as directing
power was concerned.
Mr. Cocktails believes that to operate the
canal is going to be bigger job than its con
Struction Ii he is at all correct in his estimate
that it will require one-half Of his present
force Of $4,000 Americans to operate it and
take of its activities and those Of the zone
itself certainly no corresponding number of men
could do the work well as those already IA
miiar with the plant itself and it's surround
ing environment.
Colonel GoethaS' idea is to undertake as fast
as possible the work of preparing the canal for
actual operation instead of dischargng the men
as their services are no longer required in the
digging itself.
There is to be year of experimentation and
perfecting of details in preparation for a smooth
use Of the ditch, there is to be delay fol
lowed by uncertainty that will prevent shipbuild-
ers and men Of capital from selecting the Pan
anna route for engaging in world trade
Millions are to be invested in ships These
investors want to know the conditions under
which the canal is to be operated
Colonel Goethals would have the canal pay
for itself partly by means of government
control and operation of the entire business of
furnishing a ship with every imaginable re-
qlirement, from ships provisions to coal. and
fact every item that private enterprise would
find it profitable to furnish to ships en- route
This would enable vessels to employ greater
part OF their carrying capacity for profitable
cargo rather than coal and stores generally
The canal will represent a public investment
OF $50O,0000O0. The man who is constructing
it believes it can be made to pay for itself The
kind of business energy that is going to finish
the job Is months ahead of time, if given fair
opportunity ought to make it pay financially
Preparation for the actual operation of the
canal should go forward as rapidly as possible
utilizing the men now on the ground

LORDS ACCEPT
The VETO BILL
ASQUITH FORCES VICTORIOUS
IN TWO YEARS FIGHT FOR
NEW SYSTEM.

LONDON, Aug. 12.-Premier AS
| quiths government, which claims
to represent the democracy of Great
Britain, enforced its will upon the
peerage last night by the narrow
vote CT 131 to 124. BY this vote
the house of lords decided to ac-
cept what the liberals contend is
the will of the people, and adopted
Viscount Morley's amendments to
the parliamentary bill, which prac-
tically limits the power of the lords
to two years suspensory veto and
vastly increases the prerogatives of
the house of commons.
The great constitutional struggle
which began when the lords. near
ly two years ago, rejected the
budget of David Lloyd George, the
chancellor of the eXchequer, is at
an end for a time at least. and
with it the greatest change to Great
Britain's working constitution since
the passage of the reform bill.

About six and half million dollars have

OF these great dams is to be $500 feet long

A third great reservoir will cover am area of

The water for power purposes will be led
through masonry ducts from these great storage
lakes to the fore bay 204O feet above sea level

A NOBLE PLAN.

As a convenient location for the work it is
planning to adopt, Trinity Methodist Episcopal
Church South, Los Angeles, Cal, is about to
establish an institutional church at Ninth and
Grand. Like the Y. M. c. A. and unlike most
churches, it will never close its door A large
expenditure will be involved in the execution
of the plan, but the assured results will pay
huge dividends in character for every dollar of
the cost.
This institutional church, should the plans
under consideration be carried out, will become
one of the great churches of the nation, the pat
tern upon which many hereafter will build
themselves.
1t will have dorimtores baths recreation
rooms and other features that will enable it to
prosecute church social work every hour of the
day and every day of the week One such
church, keeping its adherents under noble in
fuences every day of the year, will accomplish
more good than could hundred churches con
