AN $500. ooo,o 900 INDUSTRY.

A point Of great interest is the mani
Told values of the by-products of the
cotton industry. The cotton fibre Is
chiefly used for the manufacture Of
cloth, while the by-products are
used for many different purposes. For
instance. the portion of the cotton
fibre that remains on the seed (the
lint, as 1t is called) is taken of In the
manufactures incident to the use of
the seed and Is used for variety Of
purposes. 1t is sold at much lower
rate than the other, and used for stuff
mig pillows. horse-colars, and cush-
ions. and, stranger to say for adulter-
ating shoddy. The idea Of a shoddy
being adulterated Is somewhat anus
Ing, but that is a fact 1t Is also used
FOR making fine writing paper and for
the mi lufacture of guncotton and a
number OF other purposes. Then there
are the uses of the seed itself. the
manufacture of the oil and the value
OF the bulls and cakes for feeding pur-
poses. So that We have here an In.
dustry which represents in its total
value more than $500. 10000.

operation of which will enable them
to do the apparently impossible feat
OF making match hold up a bottle

This is how the thing is done. Tie a

such a way that loop will be left

one end of the match on shelf.
slip the loop over the other end then
place that end on top OF the cork

NIM0CKS VISITS
IN WASHINGTON
oTTUMWA POSTMASTER CALLING
ON STATES REPRESENTATIVES
RELATIVE TO p. o.
UP TO SEN. CUMMINS
Matter Of Iowa Appointments, Cores
pondent says, is largely up to
Senior Senator; Kenyon Wants
Settlement Reached.
1BY e, H, HANSON.1

Washington, D. c., Dec. 1.-the
visit Of John T. Adams of Dubuque,
national committeeman from Iowa, and
Frank Nimocks, postmaster at Ottum-
wa, occasioned much interest in Wash
ington this week.
Mr. Adams claimed he was here just
for pleasure. though he had a confer
ence at the white house on Wednesday.
Mr.. Nimocks said he was here on bust
ness with the post office and treasury
departments and produced memoranda
Of things to look up and attend to in
substantiation Of his statement.
The visit of these two gentlemen
ton President Taft is likely to take re-
garding the appointment Of the six
federal officials in Iowa within the
next few weeks.
Not only that, but there was also
much interest aroused as to what
Senator Cummins and Representative
Kendall would do with regard to MINI
ocks' appointment in January. His
term expires January 26 and he is a
candidate for disappointment.
Made no Progress.
Nimocks had conference with KEN
dali on Wednesday morning before he
went to the white house to confer with
Secretary Hilles. The two gentlemen
started at nowhere and ended at the
same place.
Although he has made no statement
on the matter of the Iowa patronage, it
is pretty generally understood that
Senator Kenyon greatly desires to see
the matter of appointments straighten-
ed out before the democrats come into
power on March 4. He has gone over
the question not only with the men,
bers of the delegation but with prom
inent politicians in the state and here
at Washington. .
AS matters now stand, if the presi-
dent and the delegation cannot reach
some kind of a truce, there is absolute
ly 10 change whatsoever Of Iowa re-
publicans, progressive or conservative,
holding any good federal offices after
March 4.
Senators Have Plan.
This fact is becoming all the more
certain in that the democrats and the
republicans in the senate have reached
a working agreement on the matter Of
combinations. In states where there is
a democratic senator. If he cares to
keep a place open, the republicans will
not push the confirmation of any Of
ficial In states where there are two
republican senators, if both Of them
agree upon the presidents nominations.
the democrats will not hinder the con-
firmations, unless perchance a demo-
cratic congressman from that state
wants a say in the matter. The latter
will have to advance pretty good rea-
sons to win his argument though.
Should one senator from state object
to confirmation, it will be given no
further consideration this session.
Thus. as Senator Kenyon is in favor
of having some confirmation during the
present session, the whole matter seems
to be up to Senator Cummins, and il
