.F0ELKER'S PART IN HUGHES'S VICTORY

Apropos of Hon o. G. Foelkers
passing through Honolulu on satur-
day-it having been found impossible
to induce him to remain for the
laymens missionary convention here
this week, the following article from
the New York Independent of June
Is, 1908, is here republished:
Governor Hughes Victory.
Governor Hughes has won his long
fight against betting at the race
tracks. The two bills which he has
supported so earnestly and vigorously
were passed at Albany on the 18th,
but only by the vote of senator who
was recovering slowly from an opera
ton for appendicitis and who came to
the Senate chamber at the risk of los
ing his life from exposure and strain.
1t will be remembered that although
the governors bills were passed in
the House Tor Assembly, at the regu-
Ia StoolOll ny d large MAJORITY Iuey
were lost in the Senate by a tie, 25 to
20. One seat was then vacant owing
to the death of the senator from the
Niagara Falls district. The governor
called a special session Of the legsla-
ture and ordered an election in that
district, where a senator was chosen
(by a small majority who would vote
for the bills. Much pressure was APP
piled by churches and mass meetings
at their homes and in their districts
to several senators who had opposed
the bills, and the governor made pub
! lie addresses in many cities of the
state. 1t now appears that no sena-
tor was induced by all these efforts to
change his vote. As the time for ac-
ton in the special session drew near
there was great danger that the gov
ernor would lose one of his votes, ow-

ing to the dangerous Illness of Sena-
tor Otto G. Foelker, representing one
of the Brooklyn districts, who had
undergone a perilous operation for
appendicitis and was in a precarious
condition. In the absence of Mr..
Foelker, the vote of the new senator
from Niagara district would not break
the tie. After some delay, it was
agreed that final action in the Senate
should be taken on the 18th. In the
House the bills had been passed by
vote of about 4 to 1. Foelker was
confined to his bed at Staatburg, sixty
miles from the capital. He insisted
upon making the journey. On the
evening of the 10th, against his physi-
clans advice, he was carried to Al
bany and lodged in a friends house
near the capitol. That night he was
very i'll. But in the morning he raj
lied, and at noon he was borne to the
Senate chamber, arriving just in time

GEORGIA SHIPPING COTTON
SEED TO THE WEST

Georgia is already being called upon
to export hundreds of tons of cotton
seed meal into the north and middle
west to supply the feed stuff deficiency
caused by the short corn and cereal crop
in that section. Cattle Dealers, I've stock
owners and dairymen have long appre-
ciated the nutritive value of this by
product of the cotton seed and are quick
to call for it now. 1t is stated by feed
dealers that this is the first time in the
history of the south that it mas been
called upon to furnish feed stuffs to the
west long looked upon as the source of
supply for feed stuffs for the whole
country.
This year. more than ever, the south
ern planter has turned to diversified
far9alng and in addition to raising a crop
Of cotton has raised much corn, wheat,
oats, etc. But it is for cotton seed
meal and hulls that this demand is
made, now Western cattle men, dairy
me nand the like have learned that there
is in 2 1-2 bushels of corn and is less
than half as expensive. Cotton seed meal
is too rich in protein to be fed by it
self and for that reason is always fed
as a balanced ration in conjunction with
some roughage. Cotton seed hulls are
being used, generally, with satisfaction
as il has been found that they replace
hay at great deal Tess expense and are
very easily handled.
The cotton oil mills throughout the
south are busily engaged in their fall
crush, now, turning out, in addition to
the oil, hundreds of tons. of cotton seed
meals and hulls which are to be con-
sumed, in the south, this fall, shipped
to the north and middle west and ex-
ported abroad where they are probably
more highly appreciated than in this
country. |
