CAN HAVE FLAX PLANT
IF FARMERS PLANT FLAX
Question Now Before Joint
Investigating Committee
Decision Soon

Upon whether or not the farmers of
this sectiJi of the Willamette valley
can be interested to the extent of put
ting in sufficient quantity of flax to
warrant the operation Of flax plant
depends to great extent upon what
kind of recommendation the special
joint committee on investigation will
make to the legislature anent the prop
Ositon of installing flax fibre plant
in connection with the penitentiary to
be operated by the comvicts.
Details Of the proposed plant and the
offer of Director j. G. Crawford, of
the York Street Flax Spinning com
pany, who guarantees to put in plant
for $4,000 and take all of the fibre
and tow manufactured by the plant, as
well as from the standpoint Of the
feasibility of securing enough flax to
warrant the establishment Of the plant,
were gone over thoroughly at the open
meeting of the committee Saturday
night, and, while the legislative com
mittee is satisfied that the plan will
work out successfully and profitably
for the state aud to the benefit of the
convlcts no report will be made until
the question of raising a sufficient
quantity Of flax has been settled.
1t has been demonstrated beyond a
question of doubt, by Eugene Bosse
the Belgian flax expert who devoted
several years of his life and untring
effort to the establishment of the flax
industry in the Willamette valley, that
flax Of a superior grade can be pro
duccd in the valley and that it vii
yield handsome profit to the farme
above that Of any ordinary soil crol
that can be cultivated, and samples o
Oregon fibre and goods manufactures
from it have wol prizes against al
competitors at worlds expositions o
) the past. The only serious drawbacl
to the establishment of the industr.
from manufacturing standpoint ha
been the question Of labor and the in
terest of capital, private capital bein
, too chary of launching out in compC
tition with the big linen trust, but wit
the employment of convict labor an
state aid financially it was pointed on
, at Saturday night S meeting that ther
would be nothing in the way OF success
, full operation of the plant and tn
, steady growth of the industry.
Among those who addressed the con
mittee were President w. NJ. llami
. ton, of the Commercial club; Senate
Bishop, of Marion, who told of the It
suits of his investigations of the fla
and linen industries when in BelgiuI
few years ago; Mrs. w. P, Lord, VIII
has devoted years Of study of the fla
industry, and Emil Hansett, son'in-la'
of Eugene Bosse, who took up the wor

A phenominal meeting was held yes
terday afternoon in the tabernacle when
over two thousand men thronged the
big building to hear Henry 0strom s
address on "The Everyday Man" and
he held their attention from start to
finish with remarkable power. But
the most inspiring sight of all was the
dozens of men who at the close of his
address arose from their seats in all
parts Of the building and came to the
front of the platform publicly declaring
their purpose to live the manly Chris
tian life as described by the speaker.
Preceding the address, three or four
rousing songs were sung by the men, led
by the men s chorus on the platform un-
der the direction of Albert Simpson
Reitz, chorister for Mr.. 0strom. Also
Duet by Mr. Mckee and Mr. Reitz and
later solo by Mr.. A. w. Mckee en-
titled He s u Friend of Mine", which
he sang with great power. Announce
ments were then made by several Of the
men regarding the Mems Get-Together
Supper to be held next Wednesday night
at six O'Clock in the Armory for the
purpose of giving the men of Salem an
opportunity to meet Mr.. Ostrom in a

religiously or financially. Every man
is invited to come and have a good
time
Following these announcements Sup.
erintendent Elliott of the Public Schools
arose and introduced the speaker of the
afternoon and his subject which he did
in a very gracious manner.
And Mr.. Ostrom plunged Immediately
into his address by saying "The Every

"A Man and His Wife,
John Wants Isabel to Discharge Cynthia.

You mean to say gloves are as ex'

Indeed they are" she told him
Long evening gloves-such as I need

Il doubt it," John demurred And
remember to explain to her that if she
wants to stay she's got to cook better
than she does now. BY paying IS more

Il don't want to pay more" Isabel
objected. Il can't. Can you?"
Il cannot" John declared with final
ity.
If he could pay for entertaining his
friends, he might pay for a servant,
the woman unused. Yet she would not

now. He had been good about the
gloves and gown, so why argue?
She found it hard to refrain from
argument, however, when, few days
later, the evening mail brought her q

the living room where she and John
sat together. She looked up from it
with happy eyes.
