SALEM TO BE A REAL CITY
could not hare lired to attend the
meeting of yesterday forenoon for
the organization of the second lin
en mill company In Salem, j Her
spirit was there, and it will be in
the various developments as they
proceed, in making Salem the Bel
fast of the New World.
The next thing for Salem mnst
be a beet sugar factory. It can
be financed' right here, and it
should in fact be financed cooper
atively, by the growers. They can
do it. if they hare the right kind
of an organizer. j ;

. The development of the flax and linen industries in Salem
determine the fact that Salem is to be a real city
- The Belfast of America ; one of the "most permanently
prosperous manufacturing centers 'in this country, or any
country. . . . : , ,' V : r '- -
Not that Salem rould not become a large and solid city
without the advantages of flax growing and linen manufacturing-
. . I' ;! ' y' -; . -y
i For this is the country of diversity, and Salem has a
number of advantages that are exclusive, that contribute and
will permanently contribute to . her ; sure and substantial
growth . '", 'v. ; " "'" . ?
-: . v But flax grqwirig and Jinerj manufacturing are ideal for
city building; for a guarantee of permanent prosperity. They
provide both the profitable production "of the raw materials
on' our land and the employment of capital and labor in fash
ioning these raw materials. Into high grade articles of com
merce that command the best markets in this country and
the world over - ; '
' - Bringing new money here constantly from long dis
tances; coining into gold dollars our sunshine and showers
working with bur soil; ; " " ' V 4
It is very fortunate that our linen industry here is to be
in good hands. The Miles mill, starting in manufacturing, is
' solidly financed and conservatively and ably managed
And the Oregon Linen Mills Incorporated, which com
pany waif organized yesterday, is backed by, practically all of
our. forward looking people, and it is to be managed by some
of our most successful and enterprising and "far seeing busi
ness 'men, coupled with 'representatives of the Canadian in
iertshich are behind the largest linen mill operations in
tCe New World; three institutions in Canada and one in New
' .Yolk. , -. --rj:4-; u';.. p:Vl, . :
Salem is very fortunate in. having such a connection; in
having hei initial linen mills" started under such favorable
auspices, with the certainty of . successful and growing instiJ asked.
0 And thse "will bring many others. They will bring, very
sferivjspeclalty miils.., And more and more specialty mills will
' eurely follow. ;
V--We are on our way towards producing here in this dis
ttlct $100,000,000 worth of linen goods annually, and emplpy,
ipg, directly and indirectly, a million people. ' ?
i "Nature prepared the setting for this development, for
j in no other place in the world are the conditions so nearly
, Jdeai for both the manufacturing of fine linens and the grow
ing'of the raw materials on an extensive scale.. - '

'i CHAPTER F118 f '
What Is It That Katherine Fears
, 'for Madge? ' " J V
Mother Graham turned herself
in my arms and answered Kath
erine with a docility and meekness
so surprising 'that -f'ctst furtive
glance at her to see if the fright
over Junior's at taxknof croup had
not temporarily af tested Her'ferain.
Tni?k you. Mr;iI;ecketf; she
said. "Thai . Is vdry gooD of you
to' say that, ahd K comfofts me.
And I will do Vhal you wish, i t
think we air 'need a cud ol cot-
fee." n 1
She walked heavily to the bed
and lay down . upon it. her face,
however, turned watchfully to
ward Junior's crib. Katherine
and I hurried outside, and when
we were securely : out of earshot
in the dining-room, looked ; in
amazement at each. other.
She didn't even . insist upon
making the coffee." I said at last.
. "She's pretty nearly - all in,"
katherine commented. "And al
though I thought it wise to re
lieve her mind by telling her the
truth, that-the croup attack might
have come anyway, I wouldn't
emphasize her complete freedom
from blame any farther. Her ob
stinacy might easily have sent that
child into pneumonia if he were
less vigorous than he is.
. "Isn't there danger now? Ought
I to go back to the city?" I
think" all danger Is over,'
she returned reassuringly. 'This
isn't pneumonia weather, thank
goodness! And with the lesson
she has had she will be the best
nurse for him after this. Those
women of the older generation on
derstand croup, thoroughly be
cause they had so much of it to
deal with. While Junior is con
valescing from this she'll keep
him from drafts and playing on
the floor, with an assiduity that
neither one of us could hope to

arrange matters you ought to have
Junior With you4S i , ,
"Surely That's Coffee" - .
.' I - ' ' ;
"I know it," J answered, and
then, with ' a , sudden decision,
"and I'm going tor manage It! Just
how, I don't knw, for I don't
want him in the city, but some
how " ,
"Above all things, don't take
him to the city," he warned, and
then we both snifEed as might war
horses smelling baitle.
3Iy prophetic ttbse!" Katherine
exclaimed. "Surely that's coffee."
"Katie understands this . fam
ily," I answered as we made our
way to the kitchen; and found my
little maid busily preparing a large
tray. .. j. . . ,
"We were Just Coming down to
ask you to make calfee, Katie," I
said.'-. :; ; -' -
She gave an airy ; little shrug
and chuckled.'' -t. ...' , L '
"Ven dees fam-I-jee no vant cof
fee any hour day or night, den I
know dey ail In dere graves mit
two tons of tombstones on top."
Bhe replied, and Katherine and I,
with our first relaxation from the
grip of anxiety of Junior, laughed
heartily.
: "We'll take ours down here,
Katie," I said, "but I wish you'd
prepare a dainty tray for Mother
Graham and take it up to her. Be
very 'careful you 'don't wake Jun
ior." Katie Helps Out. '
"l $uer I know better dan vake
aoi a-bee."i she retorted brindl
Ingly., 'Didn't I stand right dere
mit you, efery. meemit I not doing
sometings, and ven' he go sleep,
I bet you -not; know ven I coom
down here..i;l go so softj"
She iwa.' Tight." We had hot
heard her., and -I hastened to
smooth her ruffl?d plumage.
"I know you're most careful.
Katie," I said, apologetically, "but
I'm so nervous about Junior." -
"I know dot," Katie granted
largely. "Und I be shoost so still
as leetle mouse. Und I fees' nice
tray. You see '
She was as good as her word.
The tray, . covered with a snowy
napkin, which she bore upstairs a
few minutes later, was calculated
to tempt the appetite Of a pam
pered cinema queen, and when she
had gone, Katherine and I, with
ravenous' appetites, attacked the
coffee and sandwiches which Katie
had prepared in abundance. .
"We won't hurry." Katherine
decided when we had finished
"Your room lsn t nearly warm
enough for your . mother-in-law,
and the. rest all by herself will be
good for' her. Besides, weeed" a
bif : of relaxing. We'll, have to
watch Junior the rest of the night,
turn about, you know.' . .
"Why can't you sleep and let me
watch him?" I protested.; "You
have weeks, perhaps, ahead of
you nursing Mrs. Durkee. ,
"But not for. several nights to
come," Katherine countered. "Be
sides, you have been under double
strain. You happen to be Junior's
mother, you know."
" There was something In her
eyes as she spoke which haunted
puzzled me, although I 'felt that
the-meaning must lie beneath my
hand If I could only find it. .
'"(TO BE CONTINUED)
A little son of Italy, twleve
years old. came to his teacher In
a New York public school and
asked if he could not have his
name changed.:
J"Why do you want to change
your name?" the teacher asked.
, ""I-want to be an American. I
live in America now."
"What American name would
you like?"
"I have it Tiere," he said, hand
ing the teacher a dirty scrap of
paper, on which waa ; written,
"Pattrick Dennis McCarty."
When David Lloyd George, ex
British premier, was a - young
country . solicitor In Wales, he
was riding home in hs do-cart one
day and came upon a little Welsh
girl' trudging along so wearily
that he offered her a ride. She
accepted silently, but all the way
along, although he tried to engage
her In conversation, he could not
get her to say anything more than
a timid MYes" or "No."
'Some days afterward the girl's
mother happened to meet Lloyd
George, and said to him smiling
ly, "Do you remember that my
little girl rode home with you a
short time ago? Well, when she
got home she said, 'Mamma. I
rode home from school with Mr.
Lloyd George, the lawyer, and he
kept talking to me, and I didn't
know what ever -to "do,1 for you
know Mr. Lloyd Georger "charges
when you talk with him,-and -I
hadn't any money'." iv
A Frenchwoman !who recently
went 'to live In England became
alarmed at the butcher's Increased
bill and decided to interview him.
On arriving at the shop she ex
claimed excitedly:
"How is it you are dearer to
me now than when we were first
engaged?"
At her side was a bright-faced boy.
"Please sir," said the woman,
addressing the agent, "what time
does the next train leave for Des
Moines?" ;
"It leaves at 2:48. madam.' an
swered the agent, with just a trace
of annoyance. "I have already
told you that no less , than six
times during the last half hour."
"I know yoj have, sir," gently
replied the motherly; looking
woman, "but Johnny likes to see
you come to the window. He says
it reminds him of the zoo." -
An old gentleman from the Cali
fornia hinterland, on his first visit
to San Franclnco. went to the
Presidio, where he obtained his
first glimpse of the military. His
attention was caught by the spec
tacle of two sentries passing and
re-passing each other in silence.
He watched them intently for sev
eral minutes, then yielding to his
kindly instincts, stepped up to
them as they met once more, and
said, "Come, my. boys, why don't
you make up.and be friends?'
A negro was lying. down during
the noon hour, sleeping in the hot
sun. The clock struck 1, the time
to pick up his hod again. He rose,
stretched, and grumbled: "I wish
I wuz dald. Tain', nothin' but
wuk, wuk from mornin' ' tell
night"
Another man. a story above,
heard the complaint and dropped
a brick on the grumbler's head.
Dazed, he looked up and said:
"Da Lawd can' stan': no jokes.
He jes' takes ev'rythlng in yearn
ist." ; !
The business man came home
and fell lir a chair 'disconsolately.
"You look'tlred." said -the little
wife. i -t rwt. ; : i. i
"Yes. I've had a bad day. That
office boy of mine came In with

"He took you to the baseball
game, I suppose?"
"No such luck! He told the
truth for once. It was his grand

The recent rise In coffee wholesale prices is charged to
the mistaken efforts of Brazilian growers to insure them
selves against loss from! mounting labor costs and crop un
certainties by with-holding from the market a portion of .the
crop. .This action resulted in coffee scarcity and higher
prices." ' i;! . . v " ; -
i The raising of .prices Jhroughjspeculation when there is
indication of scarcity is general. Just now this same thing js
taking fclace ia the matter, pf coal with the strike in progress.
Ittwculd be the same if the farmers of the country were to
cut down on ieir production!
1 : The wisdom of hroJuntary , curtailment of production to
force higher prices presents grave difficulties however not
only to the consumers but to the producers also. It is not
the producer who reaps the benefits from the higher prices
generally but the middleman, and the speculator who fix the
prices for both' the' producer and the consumer." Obviously
the consumer is the chief immediate sufferer from this cur
tailment of production.
But the producer mayalso suffer in the end with his un
fortunate ally, the consumer. General and continued pros
perity for an industry such as coffee raising or other agri
cultural pursuit results from good crops and fair prices rather
than from a restricted supply and abnormally, high prices to
the consumer.
; : 1 1 In the case of the coffee growers there has been reached
through a commission appointed for the purpose an Ameri
can .market for a sufficient supply at a normal and stable
price, the delivery to meet regularly the demands. This plan
discourages speculation and stabilizes the industry, for the
