Rag Prices Jump

CHICAGO, July 31.-The price of
rags to be re-worked into cloth in
creased from 800 to 1900 per cent
between June, 1914, and December,
1919, according to the national sheep
and wool bureau of America. The
bureau shows that this advance is
because Of the increased use of wool
substitutes in cloth sold as sail
wool"-a term understood by the
public to mean all virgin (new) wool
Textile manufacturers, it is stated
prefer wool substitutes because they
can make more money. The law
permits cloth made of them to be
sold unidentified and without any
mark that would make it possible fol
the public to know of the absence OF
virgin new wool. AS a result rags
have elbowed new wool out of its
legitimate market and, the bureau
says, wool growers face ruin.
The public demand for virgin WOO
is great, but the response of the tex
tile manufacturers is little. Las
year they gave the public an allow
ance of three pounds of virgin WOO
per capita, while the need is est
mated II pounds per capita.
The bureau is urgnig the passag,
of the "truth-in-fabric" bill, nov
pending in congress. Such a law
would compel manufacturers t,
stamp the amount of new wool il
their goods. The public could de
eide for itself what grade it wanted
but the bill would stop false repre-
sentation.

Here Is a Lesson
For Everett to Learn

The Seattle Union Record prints
the following in its issue of Au-
gust A
Expressing himself as pleased with
the action of the city council in APP
propriating money needed for contin-
uing the development of the Skagit
project, C. F. Uhden, engineer in
charge, following the Monday meet
ing of the council, declared the work
to be the most important now before
the city.
Transportation and power are the
two things necessary for the building
of big Cities" said Uhden. Seattle
has the transportation facilities but
power is lacking. If a man came
to this city today and wanted 5000
horsepower for the operation of an
industry he could not get tits
not to be had.
Power companies of California
have mapped out a program of de-
velopment for the next ten years
that calls for the investment of
30,000,000. The Portland Railway
& Light Company is preparing for
big development work, and every
town in the country that has unde-
velored hydro-electric power is try
ing to put that power to work.
Seattle has started to develop the
Skagit. Let US go ahead and after
we get the power into the city we
can discuss the question of rates
Partial development will give us pow
er at less than one-half cent per kilo-
wat hour while full development will
mean power at about three mills"
About 400 men are now employed
at the big project. Half of these
are in the employ of Grant, Smith &
Co., who have the contract for build
ing the % miles of railroad from
Rockport to Gorge. The others are
working on development work, many
of them at the Nehalem plant, where
5000 horse power will be developed
for use in constructing the big dam
and plant at Gorge Creek.
The money just appropriated by
the council, it is thought, will carry
the work forward until October. By
that time it is expected more money
will be available from bond sales anC
by next spring linden will be ready
to begin work on the big dam.
Plans for next years work con-
template the expenditure of about
SO 100000.

Will Coal Men Peddle
Employees Cabbages?

Scranton, Pa, July 24.-Testify-
ing before the anthracite wage COM
mission one coal owner declared that
miners overlook many opportunities
to meet living costs; that after their
days labor they could work in gar
dens, raise chickens and care for
cow. In reply the miners ask if
the coal owners will abandon annual
vacations to the mountains in the
summer and to the south in the win
ter to peddle cabbages their employees
raise. This, the miners say, would
benefit the public because the coal
owners would not require present
profits for their coal.
The miners insist that it is just
as reasonable to ask the coal own

LAND COLONIES
FOR THE PEASANTRY

Mexico City, Aug. 5.-To satisfy
the land-hunger of the Mexican peas
antry, the government is establishing
farm colonies in the states of San
Luis Potosi and Guarajuato. Other
settlements will be founded as soon
as these first two are completely
launched.
In these colonies, the small pro-
prietors will live like the Mormons in
Chihuahua and Sonora-each commu-
nifty having its own steets, market,
garden, mixed school and moving
picture theater. Apportionment of
the adjacent farm lands will be made
so thtat each petty landholder will
literally have his own "row to hoe" !"
thus obviating one of the greatest
causes for the many recent uprisings
that have occurred in Mexico. Each
farmer will be. furnished with agri-
cultural implements and seed.
These farms will be non-transfer-
able in any form, whether by mort
gage, sale or exchange. They may
be inherited, however, and are to be
free from taxation

HIS CRITICISM
Certain Members of the Senate Try
ing to Form an Oligarchy,
he Says
eAssociated Press)

Orrville, Ohio. Aug. 21.-Another
spirited attack on the republican SEN
ate oligarchy was made here today
by Governor Cox, the democratic
presidential nominee, who stopped in
Orrville en- route to Canton. where he
speaks tonight at the Cox day cele-
bration.
"The republican candidate has de-
voted his front porch session to de-
Tense of the Senate as an institution
and the list of senators who have
taken charge as an important part
of the government" the governor
said. at is our contention that this
group of men have formed domi-
neering, arrogant oligarchy in the
Senate and deliberately interferred
with the welfare of the world and de-
layed readjustment in this country,
all to the distinct injury and disad-
vantage of the people
The republican Senate group, he
declared, was trying to annex the
presidency. Gov. Cox continued his
attack upon republican campaign
contributions.

HARDING HAS A WEAK HEART
Fears to Meet Cox in Debate August
31st, at the Ohio State
Fair
ASSOCIATED Press)

Columbus, o., Aug. 21.-Rergret
over his opponents announcement
that he probably will not make an adj
dress at the Ohio State Fair August
81, is expressed by Governor Cox.
81 am very sorry Senator Harding
is not going to speak" he said, cas-
I already have spent more than an
hour preparing my speech which |
hoped to deliver from the same plat
form. I had expected to request
that I be permitted to speak first,
granting the courtesy to the senator
of being permitted to answer me-"
Governor Cox spent the day at the
executive office in the capitol looking
after state affairs. In the evening
he pardone dthree convicts from the
penitentiary, interviewing each per-
sonally before granting clemency.
Two convicts who also had petition
ed for pardons were sent back.
"You two boys have not told me the
truth. You will have to go back for a
WHILE" the governor told them. He
had asked each man to tell the story
of the commission of the crime for
which he was convicted and facts
leading up to the crime. Out of sew
eral hundred prisoners who have been
questioned by the governor in con-
nection with their applications for
pardons, he said the two were the sec
ond or third whom he had sent back
to prison because it war apparent
they were not telling the truth.
The democratic candidate will make
two addresses today. En- route to
Canton, where he will speak in the
evening, he will make an address at
Orville, where he will leave the train
to go by automobile to the former
city.
