Des Moines, the capital and also
the commercial center of Iowa, has
adopted a new system of municipal
government, which because of its dlH
tlnctivo features, has been christened
the Des Moines plan. To fix responsi
bility for administrative acts, is the
('ssence of the plan. The second con
sideration was to have a governing
body ri'HpoiiHlve to these two elements
In proper relationship would produce
a highly efficient government.
The administration of municipal
uffalrs, under the Des Moines plan, Is
In the hands of a 'board consisting of
the mayor and four councllmen The
board stands In the same relation to
the business of government as the di
rectors of a trading corporation bear
to the company's business.
The mayor and council make all
iippolntments, appropriate all funds,
levy and collect taxes, establish rules
for the direction of subordinate offi
cials and direct the expenditure of all
money. In order that the responsibil
ity for official acts may be still fur
ther fixed, the business of the city Is
divided Into five departments, public
affairs, accounts and finances, public
safety, Btreets and public Improve
ments, parks and public property.
Each member of the council Is as
j signed by mutual agreement to one
i of these departments, the mayor as
suming, by clrtue of his office, the
department of public affairs.
Each councilman, therefore? be
comes Individually responsible for the
conduct of the affairs of his depart
ment over which he exercises the au
thorlty of a superintendent.
Up to this point the Des Moines
plan does not differe from the system
of government Instituted In Calves
ton after the city was swept away by
the flood. But the Des Moines plan
has other features. Coupled with this
almost autocratic power and Individ
ual responsibility on the part of the
councllmen. Is the recall. Although
the officers are elected for a definite
term, yet by exercising the recall they
may be removed from office at any
The director-of the United States
geological survey has Just prepared
the following Interesting article on
the coal production of the state of
Washington:
Although a good part of the mar
ket for Washington coal In California
has been lost through the Increased
production of fuel oil in that state,
Washington shared In the general In
crease in the, production of coal in
1907.
. The total output for the year was
3,680,632 short tons, having a spot
value of $7,679,801, an increase of
404,348 short tops, or 13.34 per cent,
in quantity, and of $1,771,367, or 2.
98 per cent, in value, compared with
1906. The average price per ton ad
vanced from $1.80 in 1906, to $2.09
In 1907.
During the first 10 months of the
year the coal-mlnlng Industry of the
state was in a highly satisfactory
condition. In November and Decem
ber, however, owing to the financial
disturbances, the output of the mines
was curtailed about 33 per cent. But
for this the production would prob
bly have exceeded 4,000.000 tons.
The number of men employed In
the coal mines of Washington in
creased from 4529 in 1906 to 5945 In
1907, and the average number of
working days Increased from 266 to
273
The only decrease shown In the
statistics of coal production In Wash
Ington In 1907 as compared with
196 was In the productive capacity
of the employes, the average yearly
tonnage per man having declined
from 723.4 tons In 1906 to 619 tons
In 1907. The average dally produc-
tln per man decreased from 2.72 to
2 57 tnim
Nearly all the mines of the state
are operated on an eight-hour' sched
ule, 6594 men out of a total of 5945
employed working eight hours a day
In 1907.
Washing apparatus has been in
stalled at 15 plants in the state, and
the total amount of coal washed dur
ing 1907 was 799,015 short tons,
yielding 644.601 tons of cleaned coal
and 154,614 tons of refuse.
D. C. Bottlng, state mine Inspector,
reports that the total number of acci
dents in the' coal mines of Washing
ton in 1907 was 131, of which 39
were fatal. The death rate per thou
sand of employes were 6.06, and the
number of tons mined for each life
lost was 102,237.
This makes an unfavorable com
parison with the casualty statistics
for' 1906, and particularly with those
for 1905. In 1906 the death rate per
thousand employes was 4.86 and the
tonnage for each life lost was 148.
917; In 1905 the death rate per thou
sand was 2.73, with a tonnage of
220,379 for each life lost.
, The coal beds of Washington are
found in the western and central por
tions of the state, and are mined In
five principal fields the North Puget
Sound field, including the coal mines
of Skagit and Whatcom counties; the
South Puget Sound field, comprising
the mines in King and Pierce coun
ties; the Puget Sound basin, Just east
of Seattle; the Roslyn field, In Kittitas
county, on the eastern slope of the
Cascade mountains; and the south
western field, embracing, the counties
of Lewis and Cowllte.
;The coals of Washington range from
lignite to bituminous coking coals,
and Include some natural aoke and
anthracite. The bituminous coking
coals of Washington are the only
coking coals on the Paoifio slope of
the United States. They are found in
the Wilkeson-Carbonado district in
the South Puget Sound field, and al
so in the North Puget sound field, but
WASHINGTON'S 111 COIL OUTPUT
time a majority of the electors believe
them to bo dishonest or Inefficient
A petition of 25 per cent of the voters
compels the accused office holder to
again go before the people for their
Indorsement or rejection, At no time
Is a councilman free from the Imme
diate authority of the electorate.
The Initiative and the referendum
are also combined with the recall, In
the Des Moines plan. Under the Ini
tiative the voters regain the power of
direct legislation, although the coun
cil might be opposed to the specific
measure Itself. A petition of not less
than 10 per cent of. the qualified
voters Is necessary to bring a propos
ed ordinance before the people. The
section of the law covering the Initia
tive and also the referendum Is man
datory upon the council and compels
the calling of a special election upon
petition of the required number of
voters.
The clause In the plan which pro
vides for the referendum places In
the hands of the electors power to
block any legislation, with the excep
tion of such as may be required by
state law or the public safety. If
during 10 days after the passage of
an ordinance by the city council, 25
per cent of the voters petition to have
the matter submitted to popular vote,
the ordinance will not go Into effect
until a majority at a special election
vote In favor of It.
The plan has attracted world wide
attention. Booklets containing the
charter have been published by the
Commercial club and distributed by
the thousand to applicants from
Maine to California. President Eliot
of Harvard, has evinced such Interest
In the plan that he made It the sub
ject of special lnjulry on a recent
visit to D-s Moines.
The adoption of the charter by the
metropolis of Iowa marks the begin
ning of u new era of civic spirit. It Is
also one of the outward evidences of
commercial awakening that bids fair
to work a business revolution In the
middle west.
coke is now made only In the district
first named.
The Wilkeson-Carbonado coal runs
high In ash and Is usually washed be
fore coking. The llglnlte or sub
bituminous coals of Newcastle and
Renton, In the South Puget sound
field, are generally of high grade
and well suited for domestic use. The
steamship consumption in the trade
with Alaska and the orient Is now
the most Important market for the
high grade bituminous coals of Wash
Ington.
HOTTEST WEEK OF SEASON.
I tain Badly Needed In Every County
In State.
The past week was the hottest of
the season and maximum tempera
tures of 100 degrees occurred fre
quently In the eastern counties along
the Columbia river. The winds.
however, were light and consequently
evaporation was not excessive. In the
western counties the 11th and 12th
were very sultry and oppressive days,
although the maximum temperatures
were not unusually high, being less
than 90 degrees In most localities. On
the afternoon of the 12th cloudiness
Increased, a few showers occurred,
and the temperature on the 13th was
much lower In the Willamette valley
and In the southern counties west of
the Cascade mountains. Rain Is now
badly needed in all districts as none
of consequence has fallen In the
western counties since June 26, and
In the eastern counties since June 20.
The sunshine has averaged above the
normal and In consequence of the
protracted period of dry weather for
est fires are beginning to be trouble
some in a few localities In the Cascade
and Coast ranges of mountains.
