OP VITAL INTEREST TO SALEM. HE CAPITAL JOURNAL is indeed pleased to see the business men of I y interested in the matter, and if the business men and property own ers will follow up the proposition and give it a fair trial we believe it will be the greatest thing that wan ever undertaken for the building up of the city. Situated as it is, away from tidewater, Salem must, if she ex pects to become a largo city, turn her attention to, and rely on manufacturing for her growth. To manufacture we must have some raw material, and flax is the only answer to that, that has so far noon suggested. Mr. Eugene Bosso, who has devoted years to the propagation of flax, and who is heart and soul in the move to get tho industry started here at Salem, is back from Belgium and his services are at tho command of the community. Mrs. Lord is also deeply interested in the movement and wo aro pleased indeed to see so many of tho business men taking hold to push the matter to a suc cessful conclusion. There Is a time coming, and it is not very far away, either, when the blos soms of the flax, blue as a baby's eyeB, will reflect tho azure of tho skies un til the blue of the earth meets the blue of heaven at tho horizon, and Salem will be the center of the flax universe. This may sound visionary, but wo be lieve it will come truo, and that Salem will pass tho 100,000 mark not many years after it has demonstrated that the growreg and manufacturing of flax products is feasible. We do not want to overlook tho manufacturing part of the plan, for there is where the employment of labor comes in, and it is tho employment of labor that makes communities grow and prosper. There is to bo a meeting tonight at the Illihce club rooms to still further push the flax project, and every business man and property owner In the city should be there. You may doubt the tureens of tho mutter, but it Is of such vast Impor tance, such a vital thing to Salem, that it cannot be passed by without giving it a thorough testing. Bo there and do your part. THE EVIDENCE IS CONCLUSIVE. ' THERE BKBM8 to be an unanimous consensus of opinion at Washington, among tho officials, at least, that Mnlhull is a liar. Tho senators all say so, and tho members of tho lower houso chant a strong refrain to tho senatorial song. Tho big biisiiiess'iiitorosts endorso what the sena tors and congressmen say, and Wall street and the balance endorse tho Interests. On top of this i ics an admission from Mulhnll himself that ought to bo convincing, only that ho is shown to be such a generous and prod igal liar, that his evidence against himself is unworthy of belief. Still, in tho light of his other acts, it may bo taken into consideration for what it is worth. It may also be added that Mulhall had in a marked degrco the facul ty of gotting everything he was connected with reduced to writing. Among tho mass of stuff already on filo with tho Investigating committno is a letter from Mulhall to his friend, Watson, who was tho big toad in the political puddle in Indiana, the mother of vice presidents and other vices. This letter shows that Mulhall was such a Invariable liar that ho even Hod to his wife, and wrote bis friend Watson that he had so lied, and at the same (timo asked Watson to lie for him in order that his own lie might not be dis covered, it was not a very important matter, only involving the delivery of a bouquet which Mrs. Mulhall had givn her husband to deliver to Watson. Mulhall, with a keen perception of the Ineougmousnoss of the political boss and any other kind of a bouquet, instead of handing the flowers to Wat eon, gave them to a pretty stenographer. This was Indicative of good tasto, but at the same time of poor judgment,for ho must have known that Mrs. Mulhall would find it out. However, just to keep his hand in, perhaps, ho fixed up a lie for his wife, telling her ho had delivered the bouquet, and that Mr. Watson was highly de lighted, as of course ho should havo been. Then Mulhall, instead of telling this to Mr. Watson, with his usual carefulness wroto it. Here is tho littlo job he put up on his wife. "I carried a very handsome bouquet from Mrs. Mulhall's hothouses to you on lost Saturday, and wheu 1 found that you had gone west, I took it down to the capilol and gave it to the good-looking stenographer in Sena tor Dick's committee-mom. I suppose you will not censure me for giving this bouquet away, but I am telling yon this Incident so that if Mrs. Mul hall questions you about tho flowers, you can tell her I delivered the goods, for you know I told her that you were very much pleased with tho flowers and thanked her sincerely for sending them. I know you will help mo out in this, for you have always told me that it made no difference how many stories 1 told, for if I informed you on time, you would verifv me." There is nothing on the records to show whether Watson lied like a gentlo man to protect his friend, or not, but it is fair to presume that he did, for they seemed to be of ou mind as to the use of the truth. At any rate this lie and invitation to lie, is on file in the archives of the investigating committee; a public document. UNKIND OF MR. U'REN. IT IS ltKALLY UNKIND in Mr. U'lien, the modern Moses who came out of tho bulrushes at Oregon t'ity, metnpohicnlly, of course, and gave to tho world tho Initiative and whole lots of oilier things, to come out and an nounce that these measure are Republican. It doesn't matter much what they are called, since they are tho law; that doe not matter much to the rank and file of Oregonians, but it Is a cruel and unnecessary jab at our es teemed contemporary, the Oregon Journal, which only a few days ago claimed it was responsible all by Itself for these innovations. Now Mr. l''Hen, tho undisputed daddy of all these laws, cruelly wivs they aio Republican measures. Just imagine what a blow that is to ('. H. and the other fierce and nticoin' promising Democrats who own the Oregon Journal. It, was cruel to mislead these innocent in that way. U'lien should have labeled his stuff, o that Democracy would not be misled. However, the laws are goo.l lii spito of any politl"! flavor they mayjiave, and it is belter that tho Democratic press bo given a chance to do the right thing occasionally, even though it is done under falso eonception of what it is doing. In this connection It may be pointed out that tho Oregouinn is disposed to v 4,- I LADD & BUSH, Bankers TRANSACTS A GENERAL BANKING BUSINESS. 8ATETY DE POSIT BOXfl. TRAVELERS' CHECKS. doubt the measures being Republican, or tho good faith of Mr. U'Ren in claim ing them as such. That paper ungraciously suggests that Mr. U'Ben was a Republican when it suited him and any old thing when that pleased him better. It fails to see why Mr. U'Ben should be rewarded for his failure to stand by the party in the last election, by being given the Republican nomination for governor of the state. In this position it will be endorsed by a large portion of the Republican party . II The Independence Monitor, celebrating its first anniversary, last Friday, got out its first "Historical and Development" edition. It is 12 pages, splen didly illustrated and brimming over with information useful and interesting. Its editors may well feel proud of their work, and its readers delighted with the feast of good things provided for them. 4 X-RAYS. ' Because a package shipped to Rose burg, containing six dozen bottles of beer, was not labeled according to law it was confiscated by the sheriff and destroyed. It was addressed to a local captalist, so it is probable he can and will get more, so, after all, it helped the brewer. t A Washington county judge has held that a divorced woman cannot get as sistance from the county under the widow's pension laws, and this though she has minor children, and otherwise complies with the the law. The judge makes a distinction between widows, classifying them as "gTass" and "sod." s Another heat wave or comber recent ly swept tho east and much damage has been done as well as much suffer- ng caused It is warm here, but, com pared to the East, it is freezing weather. It is astonishing how the hitherto dignified senators woke up Thursday when a delegation of women visited the senate and presented a petition for equal suffrage. They were all out with open arms to hug the movement, or even the movers to their bosoms in joyous welcome. Can it be possible that these guileless old fossils have an idea that their own return to a place in the senate may depend on the votes of these same women f The strike at Calumet, Michigan, is growing renlly hot. The strikers are using hot water and cayenne pepper as weapons. m Biblical students now claim it was not tho apple, but tho quince which Eve ate, nnd gave tho core to Adam. This sounds reasonable, nnd harmonizes with the result. They ought to havo been fired for that. "Tales of Honey and Tar" from West and East. Wm.

IN Extensive Program Is Prepared and Ten Thousand Scotch and Irish Will Be Entertained. tmiTio rains liasbd wiaa. Chicago, Aug. 2. With harpists strumming "The Harp that Once Through Tara's Halls " and a chor us of 200 voices in accompaniment, the 'fois of Tara," a revival of- the most distinctive institution of ancient Ire land, opened in the White Sox ball park today. Gaelic music, Gaelic danc ing, a Gaelic football game and "hirl ing matches" were on the program to entertain 10,000 Irish and Scotch of Chicago and surrounding small towns who attended tho festival. The 'feis" the program explained, was tho parliament of Gaol in ancient times, which all the provincial chief tains met and discussed affairs of state. Gradually the "feis" became the occasion for gatherings of peoples from all parts of the Irish nation. Ath letic games were arranged, dancers from the Irish provinces exhibited their skill in the open air on the hills of Ta ra, and the discussion of affairs of state was relegated to second place in the importance of events on the pro gram. Later, the idea of the "feis" spread, until for more than 2500 years it was one of the most important events in the life of the Gael. It was even more to the ancient Irish than the Olympic games were to theaneient Greeks. Since Ireland lost her inde pendence, but few "foiscnuna" were held until their revival by the (Jaclic League in J 811(1. Irish societies of Chi cago were in charge of today's "feis." If the games aro a success they will be made an annual event. Maw Munfonl, Ala,-" I was so weak and nervous whilo passing through the Change of Life that I could hardly live.
