THE WATER PROBLEM.
-------
The water committee have been at
work and have had two engineers look
the various points over, but as yet, have
not come to a conclusion as to wheie the
works are to Ixs located. Several very
good locations have been looked at. The
best of them however is the water from
Baker creek. The executors of the Sax
estate have said that the city could have
the old mill site with ditch, right of way
and every privilage which they hold on
the Baker creek water for *10,000. If
the works are located at this place, the
city 1ms the power for pumping plenty of
water and a fine building at once and all
that will have to be done will 1x5 to lay
the mains, make the connections, clean
the ditch deepen the reservoir and Mc­
Minnville will Ixs furnished with water.
Nearly three-fourths of the water which
passes through the turbine can be
pum|x5d intothecity by the same turbine,
thereby making the water supply of this
city furnish its own power. During the
night the supply of water can be lessened
and the extra power gained by this can
lie utilised for the electric light plant
w hich can be situated in the old mill.
The city can own and operate both plants
and maintain them al a nominal cost and
the citizens of this city who take lights
and water will pay simply the ex|ienses
of the plant and not the large profit
which an individual company would nec­
essarily have to make in order to make
the investment. The lower the rale, the
better the citizens of this city will be
satisfied. Yamhill waler is thought by
some to be the best, but if the works are
to lx> located at the most practical point,
a large well must lie sunk, pumps and
engines with a reservoir must be put in
and at least 250) feet of main before it
reaches a point where water can be taken.
By using the Sax property, water takers
can be reached in about 300 feet, the
Ixiwor and water is already there and all
that is necessary to complete the Mc­
Minnville water works will Ixs to lay the
mains.

FLAX CULTURE.
A dispatch from Washington says that
Prof. Willetts, assistant secretary of ag­
riculture, has under consideration a let­
ter from Ireland which he thinks may
offer a solution to the economic problem
of what shall take the place of wheat on
farms where it can no longer lie raised at
a profit. The writer, who has been fa­
miliar with flax gloving and linen man­
ufacturing since 1840, says in his inter­
esting communication:
“There are two establishments weav­
ing, one at Webster, Mass., and the
other at Appleton, Wis., the latter doing
but little, and neither weaving anything
finer than trash. There is nothing in the
climate or soil conflicting with the asser­
tion that just as good flax and linen mav
be producer! in every state in the Union
as in any country. Germany now spins
and weaveB the finest lir.en, and she has
no essentially different climate fiom
America. Many tilings become success­
ful in America from the facility with
which people take up and adopt im­
proved processes and appliances, and
this may be tlie salvation of the linen in­
dustry, the importance of which there is
no question. There is every reason why
American farmers should produce a mil­
lion acres of flax, or both seed or fibre
over and above which is now produced,
which would give 12,000,000 to 15,000,000
bushels of seed, woith as many million
dollars, and two million and u half tons
of straw, worth *50,000,000, and from
which 500,000 tons of flax fibre would be
obtained, worth *100,000,000. Once es­
tablished, American invention would, as
in all other industries, soon build up an
industry to consume this raw material.”
Prof. Willetts has informed the sender
the subject of his letter would lxs earnest­
ly considered by the ilepai tment, whi h
would lend its aid to any effort to in­
crease or diversify the agricultural indus­
tries of the country.
DEAD BEATS in. SUGAR BEETS.
It seems, by the latest Japanese ad­
vices, that the new treaty with the
United States has not yet bean com­
pleted, but that tlie Japanese govern­
ment is hurrying it on in order Io have it
ready before Mr. Swill’s arrival. We
may assume, therefore, th.it the change
of administration in this country will
cans- no -1 Liv. Mr. Swifr showed, by
his speech at the farewell banquet, that
he appreciated the work of his predeces­
sor, and the policy of aiding Japan to at­
tain home rule is a tradition of out gov­
ernment under all parties. It is to be
hoped that one of tho first acts of the
senate When congress meets will be to
confirm the new treaty.
That ¡ b a startling story that General
Butler told the other day at a Boston din­
ner concerning Admiral Porter. The
General says that after Admiral Farraguts
fleet had pa-soil the torts below New Or­
leans, Admiral (then Commander) Por­
ter tan away and tried to stampede
• he at my of General Butler, which was
lying in transports thirty miles below.
The story is ridiculous, and if General
Butler ever g ive utterance to so gross a
miss-statement, which we are inclined to
doubt, be must have taken leave of his
senses.— Ex.
The exposition now in progress at Paris
ie a stupendous mirror of the skill, the
genius, the taste and the general devel­
opment of tlie civilization of the world.
Germany and Turkey are the only impor­
tant Countries not represented in this
great exhipit of the industrial and inven­
tive life of the glolie. The absence of the
former is readily understood to be the
outcome of the political hatred between
France and Germany which time deepens
rather than softens.

The latest drug murder has lieen
atoned for by the ridiculous js-naltv of
*10o in damages. In this ease the deal­
er filled a bottle with corrosive subli"
mate and sold it without putting on any
label to indicate that it contained a poi­
son. Tins was in direct violation of the
law, and would have been bad enough
had it stood alone. But there was some­
thing more. Tho culprit proved by the
testimony oi sundry other druggists that
felonies of this description are the ordin­
ary custom of tho trade.
nvbody can
call for poisons, and by saying that he
wants them for a doctor, can have them
put up in bottles without any sign of
warning.
It must be an interesting fact to the
farmers to know that the men who
planted sugar beets in California last
season cleared from *4l) to *50 an acre
from their crops. Oregon, and especially
Yamhill county is adapted to the raising
of sugar beets and more money can be
made from them than from wheat, that
is demonstrated when farmers clear from
*40 to *50 per acre, whe.it will not bring
that profit when it is worth 75 cents per
bushel and that is the height of the pr ce
of wheat in this eountiv. By going into
various things and lessening the acreage
of wheat, the price of wheat must ad­
vance. When the fai mers of this eountiv
see anil practice this idea they will be
far more prosperous than they are now.
