The visitors from other Whitman

were surprised to see the vast amount
of public Improvement that is in pro-
9ress here. No other town, no two
or even three other towns in the Pa
louise country are spending as much
for public improvements as is Col
fax No other town has such fine
streets, such a splendid business sec

ColfaX. No. other town in Whitman
county is erecting four fine brick bust

NEAR SILK NOT
USED so Much

WASHINGTON. June 3.-Frepcl
manufacturers of artificial silk. not
withstanding great increases in pro
duction, are unable to supply the de
-mand, according to the U. S. Consular
| Service The production of the arti
fetal silk remains far below that oil
the real silk. In 1909 7O,547, 300 pounds
of real silk were turned out by the
worlds producing centers, but the
spinning factories where artificial silk
is made, were unable to deliver MOI e
than 2,976,OO0 pounds.
The artificial product is made out
of cotton, no chemical process being
used i'll manufacture The cotton raw
material only undergoes a mechanical
change and an additional process is
used to make it brilliant and incom-
bustible. The only difference between
artificial silk and cotton fabrics lies
in the weaving process.
The artificial silk processes are in
general use, the Chardonnet, the Wis
cose and the one called vegetable case
in. The viscose is the cheapest The
delicacy of the work is seen in the
finesneSs of the texture. The threads
are spun at one-eighteenth of a hairs
diameter. This almost inperceptible
flament is very strong and solid.
Its base is spun glass and it can be
twisted, braided, or woven with ex-
facility.

PULLED TRIGGER
SHIP LAUNCHED

WASHINGTON, June "a new
feature of launching of U. S. battle
ships was inaugurated when the bat
| tleship Texas slid down the ways al
Newport News. Va. recently, has come
to stay and will be a part of all fu-
ture launchings. Hereafter when de-
scribing launchings of this kind, re-
porters will write
The trigger was released and the
great ship slowly slid down the ways
to the water
What is a trigger?
A trigger is a mechanical device
which slips under the stern. The ways
are creased with tons of tal,ow and
everything is prepared for the launch
ing. Then the trigger is pulled. The
trigger is capable of holding back a
weight equivalent to 600 tons. In the
case of the battleship Texas the result
ant force of the battleship resting on
the ways and impelling it toward the
water, was only 300 tons, so that there
was no danger of accident or OF the
great ship entering the water before
all preparations had been made.
Secretary of the Navy Meyer eX-
pressed himself as greatly pleased
with the success of the new device
and it will be used in launching the
New York. Saving the TIM
bers which hold dreadnaughts in their
cradles" is now thing of the past.
and launchings will be conducted with |
l strictly mechanical promptness.

Alan, the race track, and its betting
ring, is the blacklist blot on the fair
state of Idaho. Idaho is about the only
state in the union today that tolerates
such things. New York and California
drove the gamblers and race track
touts from the borders of these states
Idaho should dosthe same thing When
wet find bonding companies sending
detectives to Alan to get line on an
Otherwise honest man, and this be-
cause the lure of the races at Alan is
responsible for much of the embezzle-
ment of trusted employees; when we
have such tragedies as that enacted in
Spokane a few days ago when a bettor,
after losing money at Alan, went home
drunk and shot his wife, and when
we know that little of the crime and
sorrow and human degradation result
irg from Alan is made public, is mt
it time to wipe Alan off the map? Let
Idaho follow New York and California.

Don't get excited Moscow does not
mean to tear up her macadam now on
Main street. 1t is the best base for
paving that could be put down, and it's
already down. A little of the the crown
VIII be taken off and used to fill the
sides, made necessary because paved
streets needs only a four-inch fall from
center to curb. The man who talks
about tearing up the macadam is de-
ceiving you. II you are in doubt about
this look it up. Ask the city council
There is not person in Moscow in
