A Profitable Delay
Statements made by Tom B. Kay and John H. McNary,
as directors of the new linen manufacturing corporation,
prove that the tardiness in organization and operation of the
venture has been most profitable for its future. The de
lay has afforded opportunity for a thorough study of the
industry, a consultation with other manufacturers and ex
perts, and a survey of the entire linen field, and as a result,
original plans of operation have been changed from what
would have been at best, a moderately successful plant into
one in which almost every element of doubt of certain suc
cess, has been eliminated.
As events have proved, this is one case where haste
would have meant waste. Moreover, control of the industry,
would under first plans, perhaps have eventually passed into
foreign hands. Now it stays in Salem, where it belongs,
and where the center of the industry will remain.
The original proposal called for the manufacture of coarse
toweling and crashes, made from tow, leaving the linen fibre
for use by the Canadian or other mills to be manufactured
into fine fabrics. The directors properly refused to sanction
any feuch arrangement and called off the proposed deal with
. the Canadian manufacturers. They were inspired to do this
because the tariff duty is only a cent a pound upon tow, and
as high as 30 cents on linen fabrics. As Mr. McNary says:
"There has never been a time when the prospects of our in
dustry looked bo optimistic. Wo huvu sufficient stock subscribed to
erect a mill in Snlum, with 100 looms, and about 1200 spindles, pay
the tariff and freight thereon, including the cost of a site, buildings
and incidental expenses, leaving n sufficient working capital. The
pin dies will he lnnnutacUirt-d In Europe, and the looms purchased
at Lockport, New York. This will gtvo uh an up to d;ito, well equip
ped mill. The directors hnvo endeavored to bo thorough In their In
vestigations In ail things essential to the success of our undertak
ing. Wo now feel that wo are starting on the right line, which It
carried out, will make our Investments safe, and start a great In
dustry in Salem and tho Wllliiinotto Valley."
The directors have acted conservatively and wisely and
deserve the unanimous support of the citizens of Salem in
their effort to create a new industry for Oregon, profitable
nlike to farm and city.

why! the bull blubbers, and it has been profanely ascribed to
the fact that it was because his taxes had been cut in half
Nothing could be further from the facts.
t The bull reflects the environment of the state house and
is a living testimonial to the effect of constant companion
ship with the executive. The bull is shown in tears, because
this gnrteful animal knows no finer way to express his own
appreciation than by imitating his sympathetic master. More
over in his perennial swing about the circle the governor
weeps for the bull so what is fairer than the bull weep
for the governor? y
w T1?e buAiful and tong relations existing between
Weeping Walter and the blubbering bull, have inspired the

Mary laughed softly, somehow,
everything that he said seemed es
pecially Interesting or amusing.
She did not see him again until
ton days lator, It was Saturday and
she had the afternoon off. She was
wondorlng what she would do; It
was a beautiful day, and she could
not help wishing that she could
go somewhere In the country.
About two blocks from the Cran
dall home she mot Will, hurrying
toward It. He stopped abrutly
when lie saw her.
'Oh, hello! I'vo been tearing
along hoping that I'd get to, tho
house before you left, 'It's such a
gorgeous day won't you go for a
Hue with mo?
"I'd love to go!" Mary exclaimed
delightedly. "Only I'll havo to go
home first and get a warmer coat
than this one."
"That's all right; I've got one
that you can wear In the car. Oh
come along right now!"
He took nor arm and hurried
her down a side streot to where
his car was parked; she was In it
and half a mile up fifth Avenue
before she had time to wonder
why ho hadn't had the car In front
of his own home. As If to answer
he rquestlon he said:
"That was iny studio where the
car was at least, my studio's In
that building, I wish you'd come
over and have tea with me some
day; I'd like to show you some of
my stuff, if well, I suppose it
would bore you terribly, only '
"Indeed It wouldn't. I'd like to
come!" Mary told him enthusias
tically. "Please do ak me soon."
You don't know what you're
lotting yourself In for," he told her.
smiling down Into her eyes. "I
never mention my painting at
home, because none of my people
enre about things like that. They
think I'm an awful fool for want-!
Ing to paint Instead of going to
work for Dnd making a lot of mon-j
cy. As if there wasn't money!
enough now! Rut If you will come1
well, you Just don't know how
much you'll be doing for mel"
He turned away again, and Mary
settled back In the seat, smiling
happily. She liked Wilt Crandall
better than she'd ever liked any
one else. She could talk with him
so easily. She felt as If she had
known him for years."
They left the city far behind
them, and went scudding along
country roads, uneven, narrow
roads, off the beaten track; Will's
roadster took the bumps and ruts
easily. When sunset came they
were up far In the hills, with the
Hudson gliding along below. There
were no houses anywhere to be
seen; they mlgh have been alone
In the world,
"It's wonderful. Isn't It?" Mary
asked, looking up as Will stopped
tho car on a hilltop.
He looked down Into her eye's
so steadily that she flushed.
"It's the most wonderful thing
that's ever happened to me," ho
told her earnestly. Mary glanced
away. It was impossible not to
know that a great deal lay behind
his words; that some day he would
tell her the things that he wasn't
actually saying In words now.
A big, glowing hap pin wis surged
up In Mary's heart. She realized
that, no matter what' might happen
to her at any time in the future,
nothing could ever make he for
get the way she felt at that mo
ment. Tomorrow Stranded!

Faith Victory That
Overcomes World,
Baptists Are Told
"The Dominion of Faith," was
the subject of the sermon preach
ed by Dr. E. H. Shanks, pastor of
ihe First Baptist church of Salem,
at his regular Sunday morning ser
mon. "1,'nnf iiMhollnr aim nt If lorn " kn
said, "are always elements of weak
ness, "i'uim is tne victory mat over
comes the world.'
"There Is a mighty text In the
great Faith chapter, Hebrews 11,
which reads as follows: 'And what
shall I say more? For the time
would full me to tell of Glden,
Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of Dav
id and Samuel and the prophets:
who through faith subdued king
doms, wrought righteousness, ob
tained promises, stopped tho
mouths of lions, quenched the pow
er of fire, escaped the edge of the
sword, from weakness were made
strong, waxed mighty in war, turn
ed to flight the armies of aliens.'
"That faith will overcome the
world Is declared in the word ond;
proven in experience. 'Who Is he
that overcomcth, but he that be
Ileveth? "Of the throe graces, faith, hope
and love, faith forms the founda-j
tlon. It is the bedrock, and so be-!
comes the determining factor in
life. Hope raises the superstructure!
and love Is the tenant. Without one I
the others would be weakened
and defeated. Love may bo the
greatest thing in the world, but
faith Is the greatest power in the
hearts of men. Faith Is king.
"The dominion of faith Is not a
mere fancy. There Is something
sovereign in faith. Its jurisdiction:
amounts to something equal to ab
solute control. Nothing Is Impos
sible to faith. It removes moun
tains when it Is coupled with God
and human endeavor. The man of
faith Is linked up with Him whose
'dominion Is an everlasting domin
ion, and His kingdom from gener
ation to generation.'
"It was the design of the Great
Creator in the beginning that man
should have sovereign control over
the earth. Every living thing In sea,
air and on land, and even the in
animate things, were put under
Him. Man was to have dominion.
The heritage was lost through sin.
From that day man's right to rule
has been disputed by all nature.
Sin holds sway over countless liv
es. Men have become servants to
sin. Tho prince of the power of
the nlr rifles in the children of dis
obedience. Slaves of appetite, chil
dren of passion, prisoners of habit
aro not free, governing, ruling men.
The things ' they would, they do
not, while the things they would
not, they do. Yet thoy boast of
their freedom, because they arc
lulled to sleep by the siren of sin.
" 'Who rules his passion better
is.
Than he who takes a city
"This ruling comes not from
within by man's own natural accu
mulation of power. Men do not
gather strength by the cultivation
or development of their own pow
ers, but by the coming of the Di
vine power. It is the strength that
God gives. It is the victory that
comes by faith.
" 'This kind guelh not out but
by prayer and fasting,' may be said
of the majority of devils that are
In possession of men today. The
face may be very fair, and the
speech may be as sweet as honey
yet the heart may be In the bon
dage of sin. To deny sin does not
break the spell of power of sin.
There Is but one power that can
do that, the man ChristMeeus.
"Death reigned from Adam to
Mosea because of sin, even though
they sinned not after that simili
tude of Adam's sin Then law reig
ned from Moses to Christ because
of sin, for 'all Binned and came
short of tho glory Now grace
reigns because of righteousness
and sin cannot havo dominion
where God's pardoning lovo has
come and faith laid hold of the
promise.
"My brethren,' have dominion.
Let not sin reign. Let us be kings
and priests unto God. Let faith be
supreme; then God can express His
life and purpose through us, Ills
servants, and wo may prove that
faith conquers all and Is the hand
maiden of hope and love."

G
Elizabeth, N. J., Dec. 23. (A.
pt) police here wore informed
today that seven alleged interna
tional counterfeiters in New York
had been arrested as a result of
the apprehension hero yesterday of
Frank Weigand, ou similar
charges. v
Weigaud, a former Newark jew
eler, was taken into custody at his
home by three secret scrvicd
agents.
Federal agents said that the
eight arrests uud three additional
ones, which they hoped to make
today would disposo of a band ot
counterfeiters whose operations
extended throughout the United
States and Canada.
Cameras and plates and other
apparatus for the making of spuri
ous money were found at Wel
gand'a homo and a partiul con
fession was obtained, the ouicors
said.
The agents said that Instead of
print in? presses, the counterfeit
ers employed a phuto-cn graving
process importing a specially pre
pared papar'from England.
