DELAWARE TO HAVE
GOOD RECOGNITION
BY ADMINISTRATION
Federal Offices to be Employed
in Maintaining the Domi-
nant Party.
MAKE SOUTH REPUBLICAN

Special Dispatch From Every Evening s
Washington Correspondent.
Washington, March 25-Delaware will
be accorded more political recognition
from the Republican party than at any
time in recent years. The party leaders
intend to make Delaware certain
Republican State if this can be done by
the proper distribution ofFederal patron
age, which necessarily produces a strong
political organization.
In the list of States where work must be
done to increase Republican prestige,
Delaware holds a place along with Mary
land. These two States will not be so hard
to hold in the Republican column. the
Republican leaders think, as has been the
case in former attempts. Both states
have become stronger manufacturing
centers than before the war, and the Re
publican managers charged with ''proselyt-
ing think that their political cleavage
is now established for All time.
Few know it but the Republican party
has created all organization whose only
aim is 10 build up the party IN the SOLID
south This committee is headed by
Representatives BascOm Slemp, OF NH-
gina OF course. its first duty is TO eliml-
rate from the party councils the blacks
and the blacks and tans" The large vote
in the last election encouraged the forma-
ton of this committee. Several real
southern States, such as North Carolina,
Tennessee and Texas, are believed to be
ready for embracing the Republican
principles. but they will not do this and
cannot while the party machinery is In
control Of blacks and black and tans.
The Republican leaders say that many
of the Southern States desire protective
tariff, and as evidence of this they point
d the vote in the last session Of Congress
On the emergency tariff. But principle
alone will not bring the wavering Southern
states INTO the Republican family. The
FIRST step IS the Qualification of the party
organization.
1t is said president Harding, as part
of this program does not intend TO ap
poirt blacks TO office in the South,
"spccislly 10 places that are objectionable
4, the masses
The Slemp committee will tour every
enithern city IN the next few months and
then report to the Republican National
Committee what IL deems necessary TO the
building up Of respectable Republican
organization in the South.

LOTS OF LIVE MEN
IN MERRILL-GUESS
THAT'S WHAT'S MEANT

The following is what VIM. R. Jae-
ger, editor OF the Rhinelander Daily
News, formerly of this city, has to
say in a recent editorial:
"A news item from Merrill says
that in the cemetery over there the
frost has gone down into the ground
a distance of two feet There's lot
of fellows over in that mans town
that it will take more than two feet
of frost to keep cool after they have
been planted
And speaking of Merrill, the same
item puts up doleful howl concern
ing the damage that is sure to result
to vegetation by reason of the lack
of snow, and the consequent increase
in the cost of feeding stock the com
ing year. Some folks are never hap.
by unless they are miserable Don't
seeb to be able TO realize that worry
ing over something that cannot be
avoided, or something that human
foresight or man-made plans cannot
possibly avert, is just about as profit
able as trading horses with a gypsy
peddler."

MRS. PLUMER CONSENTS TO
SUGGESTION-TO DO
so SOON

The directors of the "Wausau Hos
pltal," only recently Incorporated, met
last Saturday afternoon at which time
Mrs. Mary Plumer consented to
change in the name of the institution
and in the use of the name of her
husband, the late ID. l.. Plumer, the
highly esteemed and respected citizen
or WauSau, who passed away recently.
10 many of those intimately interested
in the hospital, it seemed only fitting
and proper that the name of that gem
lleman, substantial part of whose
fortune will be used in the founding
OF this great institution for all of
Central Wisconsin. should figure in
the title by which it win be known
Majority Needed
Some of the directors have declared
that they believe the new name, which
will be adopted at a meeting to be
called probably within two weeks, will
be THE ID. l.. Plumer Hospital" A
majority of the board of directors must
be present when the change is author
lied and this fact has necessitated the
delay of action.
Directors were elected as follows:
Mrs. Mary j. Plumer, DR.. ID. T.. Jones
and w. B. Heinemann, terms for three
years; Miss Virginia Manson, f. p.
Stone and A. P. Woodson, two years,
and Mrs. John Ross, w. w. Albers
and Judge A. Fl. Reid. terms for one
year. DR.. d. T. Jones was elected
president; f. p. Stone, president;
Miss Virginia Manson, secretary, and
A. p. Woodson. treasurer.
That medical facilities within the
city of Wausau must increase and i'm
prove as rapidly as the population of
the city grows, is the stand local ply
sicians have taken for some time.

FLAX GROWING, GINNING
INDUSTRY BEING
INVESTIGATED

The Chamber of Commerce has un-
der advisement a proposition to es-
tablish a fax growing and ginning
industry in Marathon county A
Minnesota concern is engaged in per-
fecting machine called the McAdams
Linen Fibre Gin, with which it pro-
poses to develope the flax growing in
dustry in the country. Up to the pre-
sent time the working of flax has had
little encouragement in this country.
The processes of manufacture have
been of primitive nature, hand work
for the most part, and not commercial
ly practicable. European competition
has also discouraged development
here. The new machine presents the
first apparently successful fax ginning
method and if it succeeds there is
promise of developing profitable in
dustry from flax.
Sow 1900 Acres
The proposition includes the es-
tablishing of central plant in Wau-
sau and the sowing of about four
thousand acres of fax by the farmers
In Marathon county. Due to the ex-
pense of installing the machinery
which is rather complex, it would not
be advisable to start with less acreage
Three year contracts are to be signed
with the growers, each man to put in
about five or ten acres apiece The
company charges the grower for the
nrst year sum of thirty dollars for
each acre put in, which, however, is
not paid in money. Instead note is
given which is deposited and draws
%fnxrn l~& -
This sum pays for the seed and also
the growers ginning fee. Out of the
first crop the company deducts the
amount of the note. pays it, and there
after it draws interest for the grower
as long as the mill operates. No fur
tier ginning fees are required on the
land thus planted. If the grower de-
ires to add to his acreage he pays
hirty dollars for each additional acre
tdded. In case he reouces the acreage
he money is not refunded but remains
10 his credit in the corporation. Any
bne not on contract with the company
pays the regular ginning fee for all
straw ne brings TO the mill. At the
termination of the three year contract
the grower is at liberty to stop the
production of fax or to continue as
I he desires. the contract being to in
sure a sufficient field 10 start with. 1t
is expected by the promoters that the
development will be sufficiently pro-
fitable for both the growers and the
company to make of it a permanent
Industry.

ONLY ONE ACRE
OUT OF FIVE is
PRODUCING CROPS

With spring comes the thought of
not only making idle cows but of max
ing idle acres work. Only one acre
out of every five in Marathon County
is now producing cultivated crops. is
the information coming from the
county agents Office.
"Growing more of the feeds on the
farm" is one of The pressing needs of
northern wisconsin farmers says
Prof. =. j. Delwiche of Ashland, and
he knows the situation better than
any other resident of the state.
Dealers and bankers at eight points
in the county are booking orders for

car arrives. Some dealers are giving
time for payment at reasonable rate
of interest. The man who buys this
way saves SO to Sc per 100 lbs. over

MAY NAME INSTITUTION "THE
D. L. PLUMER HOSPITAL"

They feel confident that there is a.
splendid field for hospital work in Cen
tral Wisconsin and that Wausau is the
logical location for such an institu-
ton. From Merrill, Wisconsin Rapids,
Amigo, Marshtield, and other cities
throughout the valley where only lin
tied facilities are to be had, big in
stitution should draw patients. Fur
thermore, it is generally felt that there
is the medical faculty in Wausau 10
carry out successfully such an ex-
tenslve program.
Not 0ppositional
The assured erection of this new
hospital is not meant in any way as
oppositional to St. Mary's hospital, Of
fcers of the "WauSau Hospital" say.
II st. Mary's intends to erect it's ad-
dition this spring, the directors say
there will be nothing to hamper vo-
iuntary public subscriptions To
erect the "Wausau Hospital" and to
assure its maintenance through an
endowment fund, it is not intended
that campaign for funds will be
made. Through Mrs. Mary j. Plumer
very splendid gift for both purposes
will be made, it is understood. The
"Wausau Hospital" also will not be
built during the spring or summer Of
1921, although at the meeting in two
weeks committees will be appointed
to select a suitable site, to prepare
plans with the architects for build
ing, and to change the name of the
institution.
ut is the intention of those at the
head of this new institution" pro-
minent local physician declares in an
interview with The Pilot, ito make it
as fair and impartial to all concerned
as possible. Any patient will be well
come within its doors and every ply
sician and surgeon of reputable char
acter will he welcome to treat his
patients there to the best of his
ability"
