ELECTION RESULTS

Last weeks Potter County News

election:
Local matters effected the coun-
tv ticket, and the various candi-
dates were elected by various
majorities. except clerk Of courts
and assessor.
"lt was pretty FIGHT for sheriff
with two good men running.
u. w. a. Collins has the dis
tinction of being the first man
elected superintendent of schools
m this county. this office having
always been conceded to a woman.
Rev. Collins is actively engaged in
educational work and we believ,
will make a good superintendent.
"There was a great deal OF
scratching done. for instance: in
Gettysburg 1871 votes were cast,
% being straight Rep. tickets. |;
straight Dem. and straight Soc.
I'D. j. O'kectlc, Rep, fol
states attorney, is high man on
the ticket.

A SPLENDID SUCCESS.
First Glass Organ now Assured for
Our School.

The "basket social given by
the school club, which, by the
way, has received the name of the
''Star Literary Club was in ev-
cry way success and resulted in
quite handsome sum-nearly
S45-to add to the treasury. One
of the most interesting features of
it was that it was managed and run
entirely by the officers of the club,
Miss Leone Ellis, president, call
ing the meeting to order. and APP
pointing Johnny kluth as the auc-
tioneer.
They have now more than suffice
lent for the school organ, and the
balance will be expended for ref
erence and other books for the
library, and in subscriptions to
some of the best current maga-
zines, to the end that the members
of the club may acquaint them
selves with the current events of
the world. know something of his
tory as it is being made today.
The community should certainly
appreciate the efforts of Mrs
Beers, herself woman of fine
scholarship and rare literary at
tainmcnts, to lead her pupils into
new fields of interest and endeav
or, with results to them of inesti
mable value. Thus will thei1
minds be cultivated, their views
broadened, their pleasures en-
hanced, and their usefulness il
life increased a thousandfold.
We feel sure we voice the senti
ment of all when we express oul
deep interest in the work of teach
er and pupil, and our earnest hope
for their continued pleasure in ant
improvement from their Star
club. The name should be an in
spiration; we trust it may be ;
prophecy.

LIFE IN WASHINGTON.
A consrsssman's Efforts 70 Save Para
Of HE Salary.

n Connresamhn'n Efforts 20 Save Par'
Of HE Salary.
To the average Kansan $4,000 a
year looks like easy afiluence. The
fortunate person with an income OF
that dimension is popularity suppos-
ed to live at the intersection of Vel
vet avenue and Easy street. A con-
gresham is esteemed a fortunate
individual indeed, since he has a
certain income of $4,000 a year and
a position to which are attached va
riouS perquisites not allotted to
those in the humber walks of life.
In this connection, therefore, the
experience of a certain Kansas con-
gresham who thought to save mon
ey from his salary is interesting.
"When l was elected" said the
congressman in question, 81 expect
ed to save half my salary. 1t was
my plan to put away $4,000 a year.
| had a small family, we had modest
tastes, and | had never had a great
deal of money to spend. We had
always lived economically-we had
to. We went to Washington, my
wife and l. We stopped the first day
at an ordinary hotel. The fare was
no better than we had at home, the
furniture and carpets not particular
ly better than those in our own
house. The Conveniences could have
been duplicated in the hotels of my
home town. When / came to settle
my bill l found I was paying for the
accommodation at the rate of SO a
day,
81 have since tried all of the
methods Of living in Washington
which had an economical turn Of
mind suggested-boarding furnish
ed and unfinished apartments and
detached houses. l find the result
the same. Washington gets all my
money. We do not attempt to
splurge. We live as quietly and mod
estly as the average family in
small town. In going my errands
to the departments l ride on the
street cars, Our method of living is
predicated on the street car basis.
But l can't beat the Washington
game. | spend all my salary on liv-
ing expenses, and we are no better
off financially than we were before I
was elected to congress"
So far as financial returns are
concerned, being in congress is no
better than being head bookkeeper
at the store or foreman at the shop.
A salary of $1,000 in a small town
buys ordinarily as much comfort
and recreation as a salary of $4,000
in city. 1t isn't what you get that
matters. 1t is where you have to
spend it.-Topeka Capital.

Mr.. Editor.

Mr.. Editor:
There were two or three mistakes
made in my article in regard to
dates. 1t was in 1860 that the pop
ulality OF the Morgan began to
wane. 1t was in 1862 that the race
between Draco and Empress was
trotted and it was centennial year
that Unknown lowered the track
record.
In some years there have been
given over $500 for the races. Some
would like to have $50 of it given
for some good speaker. A premium
of $Ioo has been offered twice by
the society for stock horses, five or
more to enter with five or more of
their get. The premium was open
to all horses owned in the United
States and the Canadas. The own
ers of the stock horses did not see to
it and have it filled. 1t would seem
that if it was offered again the own
ers Of the horses would have it
filled. 1t would be great sight to
see five or more fine horses go
around the track, each followed by
FIVE or more of their colts.
For several years at the fair all
the horses were shown on the track
in the grand cavalcade, and it was
the finest and grandest sight seen at
the fair. Why this part has been
dropped late years it is hard to tell.
1t would be well to have it so again,
and have a rule that no horse could
draw premium unless he or she
was shown in the grand cavalcade.
In 1852 Old Black Hawk at the
state fair at Rutland went around
the track followed by about one hun
dred OF his sons and daughters, and
on tho opposite dido Of the track was
Old Green Mountain, followed by
about as many Morgans. 1t was one
of the grandest sights ever seen at a
fair.
