NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
How Two Great Fighters Used to Talk 1t Over

OF all the soldiers who held impor-
tant commands upon either side dur
ing the Civil War there was probably
none to whom a greater tribute of re-
spect and admiration was given than
Joseph e. Johnston.
This was in great measure due to
the unaffected modestN of the great
general. When he entered the House
of Representatives as a member from
the Richmond district he chose a seat
on the rear row near the main door.
He never obtruded himself in such a
manner as to become conspicuous
upon the floor of the House. He could
not. have failed TO notice that visitors
in the gallery fastened their eyes
upon him and spoke to one another of
him.
/ used often to see General William
T. Sherman, who had the privilege OF
the floor of the House, enter by the
main door, quickly look toward the
place which he knew to be that OF
General Johnston and then, with a
sort of side step, drop into an adioin-
ing seat. These two great generals
who had been opposed TO one another
from the time Sherman began his
march to the sea until General john
ston surrendered to the Federal gene
raj when in camp near Durham, n
c., revealed singularly tender rela-
ton one to the other, as they sat in
! quiet converse in the two rear seats
upon the aisle upon the Democratic
side of the House.
| Members of the House used fire.

Flax and the New Tariff

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The recent tariff act. which was in
tended by it's authors to be a boon
to the people of these United States,
has been a disappointment to many
in that it has materially failed TO
reduce the cost of living~or provide
the industrial prosperity that was TO
follow it's passage. None have been
harder hit by the Democratic tariff
act of 1918 than those who are en-
gagged in the growing and hacking
of flax. Flax in its raw and dressed
condition has now been put on the
free list. The growing of flax Tor
textiles is a comparatively new In
dustry in the United States. Many
thousands of dollars@ha been spent
experimenting by those interested.
Mr. Charles Hess, president OF the
United States Linen Company, chi
cage, in a sworn statement before
the committee on ways and means,
stated that flax could now be proht-
ably grown by the American farmers
and stated an instance OF MICH
gan farmer who increased his proflts
per cent. an acre by selling his flax
straw from which he had harvested
his seed. Flax straw to the FARMER
was useless and had to be burned IN
the fields until chemical process
was discovered which rets the straw
without injury to the fibre; the farm
er can now sell his flax straw to the
scutcher. Flax scutching mills have
been opened at Port Huron, Mich, put
the expense is still great Mr.. Hess
was spokesman for the farmers OF
the Northwest at the tariff hearings
and he submitted samples of Ameri-
can-grown flax and yarns spun from
the same. Farmers were deslrous OF
having one cent per pound duty re-
tanned on raw flax. The govern
ment turned them down and left open
the American markets to the Euro
mean flax grower. Competition Is
now impossible owing to the Ameri-
can industry being in its infancy and
the wages paid in this country peine
so high. Let us contrast the attitude
of our government with that OF the
British. Spinning of linen threads
and yarns has become one OF our
great industries. 1t could have beer
made entirely American had the
growing of fax in this country peer
encouraged. A small protective tar1il
was necessary to put 1t on equal

whatever you desire that will. do"
Mary and Philip saw each other
for the first time ON their wedding
day, and for Mary it was a case of
love at first sight. Henry for his
part, was very polite and kind to his
faded bride, and accepted, with deep
courtesy, the indignities to which he
was put by thelEnglish, who hated
the Spaniards like death.
At the marriage breakfast Mary
sat on a higher seat than did her
husband, and while she ate from gold
he was content with silver. For two
years Philip bravely stayed in Eng
land and soon after his return to
Spain his father died. He was then
king of Spain, and this meant that
he could no longer make England his
home. The queen was in the deepest
depression. She had abandoned hope
of an heir, she was deprived of the
companionship of her husband. whom
she loved devotedly, and she was in
poverty because she had tried to re-
store to the Catholic Church what
her father, Henry VIII, had taken
from it. During the last few mont his
of her short reign she consented to
the cruel prosecutions of the Protest.
ants, which have unfairly given her
the name of "Bloody Mary"
At forty-two she died. A few cour-
tiers remained with her till her
death, but most of those who had
surrounded her in the day of her
glory were vending their way to
Hatfield to court the fair-faced young
woman with thin lips and cold eyes
who was awaiting composedly for her
coming crown, Queen Elizabeth,

footing in the American market with
European grown flax. This the gov
eminent refused. The British gev-
eminent has appropriated millions Of
dollars to foster the growing of cot
ton in British East Africa so that
the great mills of Lancaster may be
Independent of the American specu-
lator. The firms which are now en-
gagged in the manufacture of linen
threads, yarns and Irvine have come
to this country within the last thirty
years. When they first started BUSH
ness they were Independent and there
was competition; they did their
own hacking or fiaX-dressing. About
ten years ago they formed a COM
bine with the great linen mills in
England Ireland and Scotland. Since
then they have gradually diminished
their hacking departments. Hack
ling of flax is the most expensive
process in the manufacture of linen.
Being business men they are now
establishing their hacking depart
ments in Europe, where labor is much
cheaper than in this country. Flax
dressers have felt the insecurity of
their position for long time and they
made strenuous efforts to have the
three cents per pound duty retained
on dressed flax being imported to
this country. They sent their repre-
sentatives to the tariff hearings in
Washington, they had a delegation

higher than those which are paid flax
dressers in Great Britain and $50
per cent higher than those paid
the Russian flax dressers. In putting
fax on the free list, the govern
ment sacrificed hundreds of thou
sands OF dollars annually to the
wealthy linen manufacturers. Yet
the high duties are still retained on
finished threads, yarns and linens.
Protection is given to the business
man, but none to the workingman
and farmer Manufacturers in the
linen business favored free flax; they
had. their hacking departments in
Europe near to the fax markets
where labor is cheap; they seemed
only to be interested IN their
own profit and not in a great Ameri-
can linen industry. 1t is doubtful If
the fiax-growing and f1ax-dressing in
dustry can long sustain the blow 1t
has received by the passage of the
Democratic tariff act of 1913.

Two royal women, one Princess
Louise, of Belgium, and the other
Queen Mary, of England, share the
honors of February Is.
Princess Louise is fifty-six years old
today. She is the oldest of three
daughters of the late King Leopold,
of Belgium. She was married to
Prince Philippe of Saxe-Coburg-
Gotha in her youth, and after a most
unhappy marriage was divorced eight
years ago.
Mary Tudor, the first woman ruler
of England, was born four hundred
and two years ago today When she
came to the throne at the age of
thirty-seven she was "a faded little
woman with pinched face, no eye
brows and russell hair" She had been
betrothed so many times she couldn't
keep track of them, and she had had
proposals from almost every eligible
prince in Europe. But she had no de-
sire to marry and it was not till she
realized that she would need to have
a successor in order to secure the
throne of England for the Catholic
church that she consented to listen
to the persistent messages of amb1-
tious suitors.
Her choice fell on her second cousin,
Prince Philip, of Spain. He was
eleven years younger than Mary, and
had been widower since his boy
hood, and was at the present time
entirely devoted to Isabel de Osorio
But he realized the Importance of his
marriage with the English queen, and
he sent word to his father that he
would consent Like a second Isaac,
ready to sacrifice himself to his faith
er's will, and for the good of the
church, he wrote: II have no other
will than that of your majesty, and

Morocco's Beggar Birds

The most insistent and ubiquitous
beggars of Mogador are the teeb-
beebts
A teebbeebt looks like a cross be-
tween an English sparrow and a
thrush, the size of the former, the
color of the latter. And 1T makes
noise like it's name, says Albert Ed
wards in 1.-THE Barbary Coast" APP
parently they have been Influenced
by the moral customs Of the country
in which they live-there seem to be
two Mrs. Teebbeebts in each family.
When the first trio flew into my
patio Muley Khamedo congratulated
me. They are, he says, bringers of
good fortune. And almost every time
a Moor visits me he points out the
teebbeebts and | am congratulated
again. Although / am not much of
an ornithologist l was rather pleased
at first They are wonderfully tame
birds, and it amused me to see how

crumbs.
But they have presumed on my
good nature in disgusting manner.
They notified all their relatives that
l was easy" | now have six fam
lilies on my hands, eighteen in all.
They consume nearly a loaf of bread
day. | do not grudge them the sus-
tenance, but they give me no peace.
They are always quarreling over their
intricate matrimonial affairs. And
eighteen teebbeebts arguing at the
top of their voices are distressing
Worst of ALL they are such internally
early risers. At the first faint glim-
mer of the false dawn they begin to
sputter for food For five minutes they
discuss 1t in a committee of the whole
and then an indignant delegation fly
to my bedroom window. / cannot sleer
with half a dozen teebbeebts scoldine
at me. They bother me more than all
the rest of the beggars in Mogador
And besides, they are very careless
in their personal habits. Some days
ago formed a project of a teeb-
beebt pie. But when l confided in
Muley khamedo he was Mortified.
"Oh, mo, Sidi!" he said. ut must
not be done. 1t would be a hharam--
a sin. They are Gods own beggars.'
