Y e t he was nomi nated and elected as “ Freddie,” the strongest proposition ever offered the i , j : windy city. Mr. Morse was probably selected as an example for the millionaire in jail ; because he violated the rule which prohibits stealing from another thief, , which is a serious thing in New York. Stealing from the common people is, of course, another thing. The United States government is at the present time a large owner of I water-power privileges, and investi- , gation of those privileges is a matter of public duty. In the absence of specific information concerning its value, a water power may be easily acquired, and water-power rights have thus gone from tne control of the government for’ a fraction of their I real value, not for useful development, J but for speculative holding, which involves keeping them for long periods in a nonproductive state. Enormous water powers outside of the public domain are being produc- | ed at extremely low valuations, and I although the development of these powers will undoubtedly be of ulti mate value to the people at large, their extent and value should be matters of public record.

POLK COUNTY* SCHOOL OFFI CERS’ CONVENTION. The annual convention of the Polk County School Officers’ association which was held in Dallas on Saturday, December 5th. was one of the best ever held, if not the best, as the attendance of school officers was much greater than ever before and the interest good. Principal R. L. Traver, of Monmouth, gave a very excellent talk on some of the necessary supplies that a rural school should have. State Superin- tendantJ. H. Ackerman, Hon. <!. W. Mver, T. W. Drunk and A. .). Shipley talked on the state school funds and the unit of administration. Many different subjects of interest to the rural schools of Polk county were discussed by the school officers present, and C. L.

With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to let light burn, when not needed, to save bother of lighting and adjusting. In some homes the electric light bill amounts to only about $2 per month. You can probably get some kind of artificial light for less money than electric light, but does it save you anything when it limits opportunities for work and recreation, ruins your eyesight, smokes your walls, mars decorations and increases household work. You can probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals, but it wouldn’t be economy. It is not so much what you save, but how you save, that counts.
