Trego county should put heating
plant in the basement Of its court
house and employ a regular janitor
for the building 1t is not a question
OF can we afford it? 1t is a fact that
we cannot afford to follow the pres
ent plan when we can do so much bet
ter. Furnace coal costs only half as
much as hard coal The Offices would
be cleaner. The building would be
better heated, better kept, last lon
ger and cost less for repairs. If the
janitor locked the doors at regular
hours every night the building would
not be abused or misused and the cost
OF insuring it would be enough less to
pay large part OF his wages, because
the risk Is less. 1t would save county
officers lots of hard work for which
they are not paid. To carry coal and
kindling from the northeast corner of
the basement to the superintsndent's
Office in the northwest corner of the
third story is too much work for any
woman to do for nothing. And yet
that has been the case for fifteen
years, and the superintendent's Office
cannot be better located than where
1t is. Probably lighting plant could
be put in at the same time and prove
a saving OF money. Our county COM
missioners should study these matters
this winter; not wait until another
cold season comes

A Disappointed swede.

n Johansson left this morning for
his home in old Sweden. He had
been here about a month, but goes
home disappointed. Mr. Johansson
cannot talk English, but through an
intRrpreter he told of what he had
found and what he had expected to
ind Such farm lands he said he had
never seen before. They were fine.
But when he came here he said he
thought he would find chunks of gold
in the street, and that all he would
have to do would be just to pick it
up and sell it. He said he had been
led to believe this through advertise
ments circulated in his country. At
home Mr.. Johansson said he had plen
ty to live on. and as he could not col
lect gold in this country as fast as
he had expected, he thought it best
to go back to the old home and lead
a quiet life

the train went on guard and no one
was allowed to approach within 100
feet of the darkened Pullmans. The
distinguished party was astir early
preparing for their day of record-break

President Roosevelt and party took
breakfast in their car which was sur
rounded by a great crowd of Worlds
Fair visitors. Although kept at a dis
tance they were able to see plainly
the President before one of the win

as they in him. Shortly after break
