Utlier counties adjoining .jucksou nave regmany pub lished these proceedings. The object of the law is to keep the tax payers informed as to the official actions of the commissions and the channels in which their money is being disbursed. The more publicity a public official is able to shed up on his work, the better for him as well as for the people. Publicity is the great safeguard for both and should be welcomed by both. ' Just why the policy of publicity was abandoned some years ago, is a matter' of mystery. One thing is certain, the refusal to take the public into confidence even to the extent of breaking statutes to enforce secrecy, has been responsible for the lack of confidence engendered which has led to the defeat of a number of county officials dur ing the past few years. Another change in county affairs that ordinary business sense demands which it is understood is to be made now, is in the methods of purchasing supplies. An entire lack of system has prevailed. Anyone in the employ of the county, wanting materials or supplies, simply ordered them without regard to price. The result was that big prices were paid, more material ordered than necessary and an indiscriminate mass of bills were monthly pre sented for payment, no requisitions or orders having been filed with the county court in explanation. On the purchase' of supplies in quantity competition bids should be received. Each official should be compell ed to file with the county court in advance, estimates of supplies required for stated periods, and these purchased from the lowest bidders. No invoice should be paid unless ordered upon a requisition signed by officials and o. k.'d by the court. In this way accurate account of expendi tures and indebtedness incurred can be kept. Taxpayers are universally glad that business methods are to govern in the futurenot that anything out of the way has developed in the past, but that lax methods are not conducive to economical administration. CANADA AND THIS Dominion of Canada has a way all its own of sup pressing a trust. Six citizens can complain to a court against a com bination. If the prediminary hearing warrants, the case is referred to the government, which appoints an arbitra tion board, composed of one person representing the gov ernment, one the trust and one chosen mutually. If investigation proves the existence of the trust in imical to the best interests of the people, either the tariff is reduced, so as to permit foreign competition, or the char ter or license of the trust cancelled. "Why would not such a law work well in the United States? Canada has had the law for a year and it is giv ing satisfaction. But this is only one instance in which Canadian regulations and laws are superior to our own. Canada has no constitution to act as a bulwark for special interests and to prevent the will of the people from becoming the law of the land.
