Morris tribune., 1900-09-29

1900 with those for 1898, that is, the first
full year of Democratic administration
with the last full years of Republican
administration of the department, it is
seen that the expenses of grain in
spection during 1900 exceed the 1898 ex-
penses by $16,274.47. If the cost of the
board Of grain appeals is added to the
1900 expenses, this excess is increased
to SIC, 507 AT over 1885, There were more
cars of wheat inspected in 1898 than
were inspected in 1900, yet the cost of
inspection was greater by $16,27447, ex-
Guiding the board of appeals, and this
increased cost is sufficient to pay ~
additional employees 5000 per year each.
Whether or not the employees staff was
increased to that extent, am not pre-
pared to say, but it could be done for
that amount of money.
These figures dc not bear out the
statement of Gov. Lind that the So
called Democratic reforms have been
carried. out without increased expendi-
lures. They show that the contrary is
the case
The State Prison Binding Irvine
Plant.
The farmers of the state are vitality
concerned in the management of the
binding Irvine plant Of the state prison.
1t is to their immediate interest that it
should be conducted on an economical
business basis. In 1898 the opposition
made great promises as to how they
would improve the management Of the
plant and increase it's usefulness to the
farmers, if they were given the power
AS result of the election two years
ago the opposition secured control Of
the management of the state prison
Irvine plant, and it is instructive to
now review the work Of the new adj
ministration.
From the monthly statements of the
expenses of the state prison at Still
water, find that, under the present
administration, the expenditures Of the
Irvine plant for the year ending July
Morris tribune., 1900-09-29

there will be a large sum uncolleeted
on Dec. LIST of this year. The only term
which can describe the management OF
the prison Irvine plant by the present
administration is the word 'un-
business1ike,' and the results of
their efforts at the end of the
confidence in their future binding Irvine
manufacturing operations. In their
efforts to manufacture large stock OF
political capital the board of prison
managers lost sight of business princi-
pies in the manufacture of Irvine.
The Parties compared.
The record of the achievements of
the Democratic and Populist parties in
their f-appointed role of reformers,
lis not one of which they have any rea-
son to be proud. Their brief irruptions
have not been to the advantage of the
state or to the interests of the taxpay-
ers. They have been given three trials
and found lamentably wanting on each
occasion, and there is no indication that
if they are given a fourth opportunity
they will do any better Like the fool
ish virgins, they are anxious to partici-
pate in the marriage feast but they IN
variably forget to provide oil for their
lamps. Their record has been one Of
failure, and, worse than failure of
disaster
On the other hand, the Republican
party has been the promoter and orig
inator of all that has been useful and
beneficial to the state. Our laws and
institutions have come from Republic
an hands, and stand to-day monuments
to the fidelity and intelligence of Re-
publican lawmakers and officials. That
the Republican party has earned the
confidence of the people is evidenced by
the fact that, with the brief Interrupt
tions have before referred to, it has
been entrusted with the complete adj
ministra ton of the states affairs for
forty consecutive years. How the trust

i S1st 1000, were 1858, 190.61, as compared
! with $316, 1916 for the year ending July
31st 1899. A balance of S208, 1854, left
on July 31st, 1899, to the credit of the
prison binding Irvine fund, has been
! spent, and the cash receipts for the
1 year 1900 amounted, on July 31st, to

During the year that our friends of

prison Irvine plant, l find that they

1 1000, 900 pounds of fiber purchased. I

1 the average price paid for this large
amount of raw material was fraction

find by the market report published
in the Cordage Trade Journal Of Sept.
| 6, 1900, that the market price of slsal is
from 3-8 to 1-2 cents per pound, and
| the tendency is toward lower prices.
The prison Irvine plant is thus shown
| to be in possession of 1,175,539 pounds
of sisal at the end of the season, for
which it has paid. almost 3 cents more
than the current market price. I also
find in the same trade journal, that the
J market price quoted Sept. 9Th for
Standard Sisal Irvine is to Z IL cents
per pound. I find from the statement
made to me by the prison authorities,
that from Sept. s, 1899, to Feb. 8, 1900,
the farmers who had ordered tWlne
from the state prison were charged 10
cents per pound for mixed" Irvine,
and from Feb. s to Aug. 1, 1900, 10 cents
for sisal and IL 1-2 cents for mixed,
and as the prison Irvine is sold at
figure but very little above cost, and is
manufactured at a low cost, owing to
the cheapness of prison labor, it is not
likely that the surplus stock of fiber at
the prison could be manufactured and
sold at lower prices except at a loss.
The farmers who ordered their Irvine
from the state prison in the spring and
early summer at the prices above
quoted have had the modification of
seeing Irvine of the same quality Of
fered by jobbers at Z to cents, or 2 to
cents lower than the prison Irvine.
I am informed by the prison author
tiles that on July 81, 1900, the outstand-
ing accounts of the prison Irvine plant
amounted to 1915, S65. a. 1t has been
customary for all bills for Irvine to be
paid up by the farmers by Dec. list
each year, but the indications are that

State Grain Inspection.
| In his speech of acceptance, GOV.
/ Lind discussed the state grain inspec-
ton department and certain changes
! which were designated reforms which
have been effected therein during his
administration. In concluding his re-
marks on this subject, the governor
said:
| Il will only add that these reforms
| in the grain service have been ac-
complished without any increase of ex-
penditure; on the contrary, the ex-
pense of the service during the crop
year just closed. under Mr.. Reishus,
administration, was S2,2O1.78 less than
the cost of the service during the pre-
ceding year of Mr.. CIausen's admins
tration.

this in order to show that no fair COM
parison can be made between the last
year and the preceding year as the
term of the Republican chief Inspector

administration.
The only fair comparison is one be-
tween the last full year, when inspect

office under a. Democratic governor.
that is, between the years of 1898 and
1900.
I wish to be absolutely fair with our
opponents, and for that reason will
quote a few figures from the Fifteenth
Annual Report of the Railroad and
Warehouse Commissioners for the year
ending Nov. 80, 1899, which was made
by Chief Grain Inspector E. S. Reishus.
The figures for 1900 were taken from
the reports of Mr.. Reishus to the state
auditors Office. These figures show
that the expenses of the grain inspec.
ton department for the crop years
ending Aug. 81, were as follows:
1885,. 1890. ......... .$147 ,522.22
