The American Statistical association
publishes some interesting figures on the
amount of water power employed in the
United States. In 1880 there was a total
water power equal to 1926, $40 horse
power used for manufacturing purposes,
this being 1919 per cent. of the total
power thus employed in the states. The
annual value of the water power thus
utilized is set down at 1874, 900, 900. The
New England states alone use 34.5 per
cent. of the whole water power of the
country, and altogether the Atlantic
states use over th~ree-fourths of the whole.

Canned Fruits and veretab1es.

Many fruits and vegetables, being
Theoretically sealed while they are fresh
from the vines at the point of supply, are
fresher, more wholesome and palatable
than the 70 called fresh fruits and vegeta-
bles exposed for sale for considerable
periods of time in city and village
markets-a fact not generally understood
or appreciated. Our best packers now
insist that these articles shall be picked
in the morning willie the dew is on them,
and brought tothr 'ctories in the highest
state of perfectio und it is safe to say
that in all well ordered factories cleaner
and more tidy methods are employed in
the systematic preparation of canned
goods than in the average home kitchen.

Liberated from Their Fetters

By the helpful, genial action of that most
beneficent of aperients, Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, the bowels soon throw off the
burden that paralyzed and weakened
them, and resume their normal freedom
Of action, The action of the Bitters,
unlike hat of average purgauves. involves
no gripping or drenching. If it did it
would, like them, be valueless for ordi-
nary use. There is nothing ungentle or
unnatural attending its operation. Upon
the liver, no less than the bowels, its
action is most benign, promoting a health
iul bilious secretion, and directing out of
the wrong and into the right channel.
Conformity with costiveness, other bilious
symptoms disappear when it is systematic
cally used, and the stomach is strength
ened as well as regulated by it. Malarial
complaints. rheumatism, debility, nerv-
BUSINESS and kidney troubles are com pletely
relieved by it. Sleep and appetite are in.
yariably promoted by it.

TT TO Us STRAIGHT.

GIVE 1T TO Us STRAIGHT.
We direct the attention of the readers
of THE LEADER to a series of afidavits,
published in another column, which cover
some items of the alleged enormous cost
of the two Patterson cases. From the
very first this matter has been treated by
the Sun with an extravagant disregard OF
the facts altogether worthy of the Rider
Haggard school of fiction. Immediately
after the first Patterson trial it was as
serted by the SIN that the costs would
foot up $40, 1000. Immediately after the
second trial it was alleged that they
would reach SIS, 200, making a total of
SIS, 200 for both trials.
When a man puts a statement in cold
type it is generally believed that he
knows, or ought to know, what he is talk
ing about. In this case when the San
got down to publishing what it asserted
to be the official figures in both trials the
very best that it could do was to foot up a
stotal of $40, 349. 90. The following day it
~reconsidered the matter and by some in
definite references to additional expenses
(the items OF which it either could not or
would not specify it asserted that the
total charges upon Patterson cannot be
much less than $40, 600.
We present afidavits covering only five
items in the list in which the San claimed
was contained the official figures. In the
matter OF witnesses fees the amount was
over3tated by 1902. 40; in stenographer's
fees $l54.6 60: in Jury fees $4,000;
in the allowance to an assistant attor-
icy, ordered by the court, 5000;
and in the money paid the detectives
1921, making a difference in five items
alone OF 81, 3lS. so. And the Sun
palmed these errors off on the public I'M
der the guise of official figures"
The point which we wish to make is
simply this; Mr.. Stoll's record as prose-
cutting attorney is a legitimate matter Of
public inquiry. If he has failed in the
trust which his constituency imposed up
on him let the people know it. IF he has
not been an able and energetic prescott
ing officer, or if he has been ~extravagant
in the onerous duties imposed upon him,
show it up. But in doing so give us facts
and not fiction. Do not palm off on the
public as official, figures which the afidav-
its of reputable people prove incorrect.
In the efforts of the editor of the Sun to
everlastingly bury the public prosecutor
be should not permit his personal enmity
to blind him to facts or lead him to dis
honestly manipulate figures.
If both trials of the Patterson case cost
the county s2S, 600, as the Sun claimed
during the summer or if they cost $l2,-
900. as it now claims in a more sober
mood, let it bring forward the official
figures attested under the official seals of
the proper officers and it will have the
merit of making a fight which is digni-
fed on the one hand and honest on the
other.

Fire.

About 7 o'clock last evening Harry
Blake came down from Camp Carlin and
gave the alarm of fire. He then notified
the boys that to reach the flames would
be impossible. The burning structure
was the Peter Winters residence, ON
Crow creek, northeast of the fair grounds.
1t was entirely consumed. The house
was empty and was doubtless set aire by
tramps.

What Dogs Cost Ia

There is in the United States a dog for
every three inhabitants. The cost of
keeping 20, 900, 600 dogs is at least $780,
600, 600 per n The food given to
an average dog every year if fed to
chickens would yield a return of more
than $40. High toned dogs are very ex-
p~ensivc, their food costing q good deal
more than that of some people.--Public
