of the court's keep of prisoners is
; $2142.871 ' Obviously opium and
whiskey smuggled in and prisoners
escaped cannot account for the half
or even the fourth of $2142.87
If the sheriff desires to make an
explanation that ' will - explain, he
should Inform the public of what this
$2142.87 increased board consists. Is
'; aU or part velvet' on the side of
the sheriff and if so, how much?
It added emoluments for the sheriff,
and If so, what is the amount of that
emolument?
- The sheriff authority for board
tug the prisoners is under a law en
acted by the people. By the author
ity 6C.tb.at law he stands on his rights
to board prisoners, taking them
away from the commissioners' court
at a time when the board cost was
at a minimum. That law was not
passed, indeed, could not have been
passed by popular vote if It bad
been stipulated that the sheriff is to
make merchandise out of the board
ing of prisoners. If it had been un
derstood fully beforehand that the
boarding of prisoners was to become
a. means of enriching the sheriff, the
proposition to make the change
would have been frowned upon at
the polls.
The sheriff receives a salary of
$4500 a year and there is a statute
that says he shall receive no addi
tional emoluments.' As it stands and
exclusive of all perquisites of the of
fice, he receives a greater compen
sation than do the circuit judges,
positions of vastly greater require
ments In talents and preparation, and
of very much larger Importance to
the public. Every circumstance of
law ' and fact forbids the sheriff

A GRATIFYING SUCCESS

HE Portland Fair and Livestock
show closes today, and the as
surance is that it has been a
financial success. Of its suc
cess artistically there has never been
question. When, therefore, the
. financial side shows a ledger ac
count without a deficit, there is rea
son for felicitation.
. , Portland could not afford to per
mit the undertaking to fall. There is
a public viewpoint from which its
, Importance must not be underestl
mated. .If there never had been In
terchange ot v ideas by men there
never would have ben a civiliza
tion. Mf one man had never com
pared his- handiwork with that of
other men. there) never would hava
been a locomotive. It is the asso
ciation of Ideas and experiences, one
man's with another's, that Is the
basts of evolution. The perfected
Hoe printing press, one of the great
est machines that has been pro
duced. Is sot oae man's work, but
the Inventions and improvements of
a long line of men that went before.
No one man could ever have pro
duced the Hoe press, the cotton gin,
the Marconi wireless or the modern
locomotive.
- Perfection is the product of as
sociation. Interchange and ' object
lesson. The higher form of one Is
adopted and improved ipoa by an
other, and the finality of the pro
cess Is civKUatloa. The gathering

proposition is to abolish tha

Against this the politicians, and
their journalistic mouthpieces, are
of course arrayed. As in Des 1

every municipal reform movement,
party politics Is to be eliminated
That is, there are to be no party

the commission plan, saying, in part
On the face of It the new charter
looks good. It means placing In con
trol of the city's business, business
heads not men who work one night
a week for $25 a month and forget the
other six nights. What great corpora
tion would place the management of its
affairs In the bands of a man who might
visit the scene of the corporation's ac
tivity once a week and attend to his
own private affaire the remaining six
days?
Under the commission plan there
