SAINT PETER AT THE GATE.
St. Peter stood guard at the golden
gate,
With a solemn mein and air sedate,
When up to the top of the golden stair
A man and a woman ascended there
Applied for admission. They came and
stood
Before St. Teter go great and good,
In hopes the city of Peace to win,
And asked St. Peter to let them in.
The woman was tall and lank' and thin,
With a scraggy bcardlct on her chin;
The man was short and thick and stout
His stomach was built so it rounded
out,
His face was pleasant, and the while
He wore a kindly and genial smile.
The choirs in the distance the echoes
woke
And the man kept still while the wo
man spoke.
"O thou that guardest the gate," said
she
''We two come hither beseeching thee
To let us enter the heavenly land,
And play our harps with the angol
band.
Of me, St. Peter, there is no doubt,
There's nothing iu heaven to bar me
out.
I've been to the meeting three times a
week
And almost always I'd rise and speak.
"I've told the sinners about the day
When they'd repent their evil way;
I've told my neighbors, I've told them
all
'Bout Adam and Eve, and the primal
fall;

THE DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON, SATURDAY, SEPT. 9, 1916.
I've showed them what they'd have to
QO
If they'd paas in with the chosen few.
I've marked their path of duty clear,
Told them the plan of their whole
career.
I've talked and talked to 'em loud and
long,
For my lungs are good and by voice is
strong.
So good Peter, you'll clearly see
The gate of heaven is open to me
But my old man, I regret to say,
Hasn't walked in exactly the narrow
way,
He smokes and ho swears, and grave
faults he's got
And I don't know whether he'll pass or
not.
"He never would pray with an earnest
vim.
Or go to revival or join in hymn;
So I had to leave him to sorrow there,
While I with the chosen united in
prayer.
He ate what the pantry chanced to
afford.
While I in my purity snug to the Lord;
And if cucumbers were all he got,
It's a chance if he merited them or
not.
But oh, St. Peter, I love him so!
To the ploasures of heaven please let
him go.
I've done enough a saint I've been;
Won't that atone f Can't you let him
in t
Bv mv crim eospcl I know 'tis so
That the unropentant must fry below.
But wn't there aome way you can see
That he may enter who's dear to me!
. ? i i 1 . '
"It's a narrow gospel by which I pray,
But the chosen expect to find some way
Of coaxing, or fooling, or bribing you,
So that their relations can amblo
through.
And bbv. St. Peter, it seems to me
This gate isn't kept as it ought to bo;
Kou ougnt to siana uy tnui opening
there
And never sit down in tho easy chair.
"And any, St. Peter, my eyes are
dimmed
But I don't like the way your whis
kers are trimmed.
They're cut too wide and outward toss;
They Id look better narrow and straight
across.
Well, wo must be going our crowns to
win
So open, St. Peter, and we'll pans in."
St. Peter sat and stroked his staff,
Rut anite of his office he had to laugh,
Then said, wilh a fiery gleam in his
eye,
''Whose, tending this gateway, you
or II"
And then he arose in his stature tall,
And pressed a button upon the wall,
And said to the imp who answered the
bell,
"Escort this lady around to hell."
Tho man stood still as a piece of stone;
Stood sadly, gloomily, tnere auuiic.
A liJnnr, s,t!pfl iflcR. lift had

That if she went to tne regions una,

Slowly he turned, by habit bent,
To follow wherever the woman was

Observed that the top of his head was

"Thirty years," (with a weary sigh).
And then he thoughtfully added;
Why!"
St. Peter was silent, with head bent
down ......
Ho raised his hand and scratched his
crown,
Then, seeming a different thought to
take,
Slowly, half to himself he spake:
'Thirty years with that woman there

"See that on finest ambrosia he feeds;
He's had about all of the hell he needs.
It isn't hardly the thing to do
To roast him on earth and in future

They gave him a harp with golden
strings,
A glittering robe and a pair of wings,
And he said, as he entered the realm
of day:
"Well, this beats cucumbers, anyway! "
And so the scriptures shall come to
pass
'The last shall be first and the first
shall be last."
Famous German Coffee
House Threatened
There's A Reason
Amsterdam, Sept. 9. Although it in
not admitted in Germany, the famous
old German coffee houses, the popular
resort of the masses, is abont to go
out of business until after the war.
There's a reason.
Germany is about out of coffee.
For the last two years the Germans
have used reserve supplies of coffee
stored in Hamburg and Bremen. Ant
werp's supply augmented this when it
fell to the Germans in 1914. There
since has been a little from Holland
and Scandinavia.
Toda', however, the British have so
effectively stopped shipments to ports
reshipping to Germany that none is
available tnereirom. Germany is brew
ing the last of her precious berries.
Before the war Germany imported
about 55 million dollars worth of cof
fee a year, mostly from Brazil and
Guatemala.
THE MERCHANT PRINCE.
Thore was an old geezer and he had a
lot of sense;
Ho started up a business on a dollar
eighty cents.
The dollar for stock and the eighty
for an ad
Brought him three lovely dollars in a
day, by gad!
Well, he bought more goods and a
little more space,
And he played that system with a
smile on his face.
The customers flocked to his two-by-four
And soon he bad to hustle for a regu
lar store.
Up on the square where the people
pass,
He gobbled up a corner that was all
plate glass.
He fixed up the windows with the best
that he had,
And he told them all about it in n
half page ad.
He soon had 'cm coming and he never
quit,
And he wouldn't cut down on his ads
one bit.
Well, he's kept things humping in the
town ever since,
And everybody calls him the .Merchant
Prince. Ford Times.
South Americans Afraid
of North American Trusts
Buenos Aires, Sept. 9. South Ameri
cans are deeply interested in the sug
gestion, referred to in dispatches from
Washington and New York, that the
Sherman law ought not to be enforced
against North American business hous
es seeking trade on the southern conti
nent. South America is exceedingly fear
ful of trusts and especially of North
American trusts. The people base their
ideas on translations they have read
from newspapers in tne Limed States.
They believe, literally, the very strong
est things they have read concerning
the trust evil. It is doubtful if the
still uninvaded corner of Belgium
would regard a German incursion with
any more pleasurable anticipations
than South Americans feel at the hint
that the North American trusts may
get a grip on them.
This apprehension of t runts, in fact
is a considerable obstacle in the way
of American trade's progress here.
Consequently this latest suggestion
has not been well received.
South .American business men who
think closer pan-American trade rcla
tions would be a good thing express
the opinion that the field is so wide
open, while the war lasts, that trust
methods are unnecessary at present,
Their view is that North American
firms would do better to gain a foot
hold by individual effort, before the
United States Is
Planning a Great
New IndustryFlax
The high prices of linen and of the
flax fibre from which linens are made
has centered attention on the necessity
of establishing a real linen industry in
this country, the greatest consumer of
linen in the world. There seem to be
two big problems which must be solved
before success is assured. One is to
find some artificial method of prepar
ing the flax straw for the spinner, thus
relieving the flax grower of this task,
and the other is to convince the Ameri
can public that American-made linen is
as good as any other. There are a um
ber of minor problems, and they are an
discussed jn a report by W. A. Graham
Clark just published by the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic commerce, De
partment of Commerce.
The only country in which the pro
duction of flax fibre has increased con
sistently in recent years is Russia, the
report states. In the British Isles and
in France the production has decreased
in spite of all efforts to keep the ni-
dustry growing and in Austro-Hungary,
Belgium, and the Netherlands the indus
try has not been able to bold its own.
The American production has never
been of importance. Thanks to liberal
government aid and to cheap labor the
Russians had gradually been getting a
monopoly of the business up to the time
the war broke out.
In the United States flax has been
raised almost entirely for the Beed,
which is used to make the Well-known
linseed oil so necessary for the produc
tion of good paints and varnishes. Of
some 3,000,000 acres of flax raised in
this country in 1915, the Department of
Agriculture estimates that only 2,000
acres were devoted to flax for fibre.
The bulk of the straw from the seed
bearing plants is burned and used for
fertilizer. It should be borue in mind,
however, that flax growing for seed
and flax growing for fibre are separate
and distinct industries. Some flax is
grown for both seed and fibre, but a
decision must be made as to which is
to be the more important product, just
as the sheep raiser must decide whether
mutton or wool is to be the primary con
sideration. In Europe the farmer not only raises
the flax, but prepares the fibre for the
spiuner. This preparation requires sev
eral processes, one of which, known as
"retting" requires considerable cheap
labor and much time and is in addition
a most disagreeable process for the
workmen. The problem in this country
is to find some chemical process of ret
ting that can be carried out at a fact
ory and thus allow the farmer to con
fine his attention to the agricultural
end of the industry. This is the only
condition on which the American far
mer will take to growing flax for the
fibre, Mr. Clark thinks. Some pro
gress is already being made in chemi
cal retting and nt least two concerns
are now buying flax stalks from the
growers for furthcT treatment. Chemi
cal processes have been tried before
without much success, but one of the
new concerns is now selling chemically
retted -fibre to Europe and the other
is making coarse linens for use in cloth
ing and for curtains.
Even if a rood all-American liuen is
produced in this country, however, there
still remains the great problem of find
ing a market for it. That means that
time and effort will be required to per
suade the consumer to buy the domestic
product instead of the imported. Many
people invariably choose the imported
article when it is displayed alongside
of domestic products, almost regardless
of quality. The president of a mill
now making dyed and bleached dress
linens from American flax has found
that, small as his product, there is dif
ficulty in getting the jobbers and lie
partment stores to handle it. The ten
dency is to assume that, even though
it is apparently of excellent quality, it
cannot equal the old established linens
from abroad. There will never be a bet
ter time than the present, to popularize
the domestic product, for the imported
article is scarce and high priced. In
normal times onr imports of linen
goods vary from 25 to 35 million dol
lars and the demand had been steadily
increasing up to the time of the war. '
The Bureau's report is entitled "De
velopment of an American Linen In
dustry," Special Agents series No. 122,
and may be obtatined for the nominal
price of five cents from the superin
tendent of documents, Washington, D.
C, or from the nearest district office
of the Barean of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce'.
European struggle is over, resorting to
combinations later if they are compel!
ed to.
