The Seattle Star Newspaper, January 9, 1922, Page 6

oft ALL Newspaper Re. terpries Aven. and United The Star is glad to record the announcement that a gigantic display of Pacific Northwest products, the most ambitious attempted so far, will be staged at the Spo- Kane st. terminal of the port of Seattle during the last week of July. Fifty Portland and Tacoma furniture concerns have already promised displays; Se- attle furniture also will be in readiness. Manufactured products of a wide variety of other lines will gupplement these. That is fine. We have just made a faint start on developing our factories. vast stores of raw materials at hamd, with the world’s greatest concentration of po- tential water power: to be utilized, with excessive rail rates shutting Eastern manu- facturers more and more out of this trade territory, we have an unparalleled oppor-_ - tunity. We only need to “sell” the idea to ourselves. A great exposition of goods already io per month; B mentha, #1.60—6 or Ww nine Outetde of ny being made here will help materially. 3 Nineteen twenty-two should be an intensive year of Northwest products advance- ~ ment. The Star and its sister papers in the Northwest are going to make this idea a cardinal and consistent part of their policy. In the upbuilding ef our factories lies both our business prosperity and the solution of our “jobs” problem. Bought and Paid For ‘Btates senate was bought for.

It is hard to figure how any Senator can vote for Newberry and keep his self resp. ct. Certainty a majority vote in his favor will still further lower the Prestige of the entire senatorial bedy, and, goodness knows, the senate has little enough public confidence and esteem as it Is. On the other hand, the ungeat- ing of Newberry, so richly de- Served in law and morals, would be a great victory for both the senate and for the public. It is not too much to say that the vote on Newberry is of more importance than anything else that Senators Poindexter and Jones and their fellow members will be called upon to do at the Present session, “That ye may know the way by which ye must 90: for ye have not Passed this way hitherto.”—Joshta tH :4. eee Make no more giants, God, But elevate the race at once!

Out-Stradding Stradivarius . Most musicians believe that no modern violin can compare with those made several centuries ago by Antonius Stradivarius and oth- ¢r master violin makers. A crowd of supesmusicians re- cently sat in darkness in the Con- servatoire in Paris. A Stradivar- jus was played, then a modern violin They voted in favor of the imodern fiddle, then were amazed that it wasn’t the Stradi- varius. Musical instruments isn’t the only field in which people swear by the old-time output, when the new is better. Out where they hide moonshine in the bushes it pays to beat around the bush.
