am not prepared to say. In the yaVi-
ouS states the power of the commits
sion differs. The scope of the power
in some states at least embraces rail
ways, street railways, telephone lines,
electric light plants, gas and water
plants and possibly ether interests.
The commission is given authority to
regulate the issue of stocks and bonds,
the making OF rates, the methods Gf
accounting. has power to inspect, etc
The authority granted to the commits
sion in other states is, in this state,
lodged, with various officials, viz: the
the executive council of tho state,
the railway commission, the city coun-
ellis and the people of cities by the
granting of franchises. It would per
haps be more satisfactory If the e1er-
else of these various powers were
lodged with i single board or cont
mission to be known as Pubic
Utilities Commission. This might
be done by the creation of an entirely
new commission, by charging the pow
ers of the railway commission or by
converting the railway commission
into a public utilities commission.
Should this last suggestion be adopteI
I think 1t might be advisable to in
crease tho membership of the commits
sion to FIVE IN such an event, | be-
lieve that the additional members
should be appointed by the governor
and confirmed by the senate and as the
terms of the present commissioners
expire, their successors should be ap-
pointed and confirmed as above sug-

LEGISLATURE for Future.

| The fact that ours is a comparative
| " young state and has few large cities
may lead to the conclusion that the
same necessity for legislation along
the lines above suggested does not
exist as in older states, but it should
| be remembered that we legislate for
the future as we'll as the present. We
have already enacted laws with refer
ence to public weighing places i'll order
! that those who have commodities %
sell may not be taken advantage of by
those who buy. Is it not just as nee
essary that those who buy shall not
be wholly at the mercy of those who
have to sell, especially where there
can be no choice of places of buying,
such as in the purchase of water, gas
| and electricity, and is it not just as
| proper that the meters through which
the measurements are made should
be tested and read by public official
! or employe who is i'll no way inf'l-
enced by the corporation selling the
commodity as it is that there be a pub
| tic Welghmaster to stand between the
buyer and the seller Of commodities
disposed of by weight The cities Of
the state perhaps have authority over
most of these matters now. but local
influences are often such that the eX-
ercise of authorities granted is very
meager.
This whole subject is one far reach
| ing i'll its effects and Of great import
ance to all Of our people. In my juds-
ment the consideration cannot and
should not be long deferred. believe
that it is entitled now TO your most

Protect Our Resources.
The governor refers to the meeting
OF governors and other prominent men
Tat Washington as the call of the presi-
/ dent to devise plans to conserve the
national resources and then says:
| 1t is possible that our people. with
out stopping to consider the matter DO
not fully realize the relation of our
state to this very important and far
reaching subject and its bearing upon
our future welfare. We have we'll
nigh reached the period already at
which our forests are gone. Our sup
ply of coal, while apparently almost
ineXhaustible, is being mined at IN
enormous rate and it IS apparent that
IN some parts Of the state at least, the
soil is not being protected as it should
! | presume that few, if any, would ar
que that fertile land, such as is found
in most parts OF our state. should be
devoted extensively to the growth of
| forests or timber and yet it might be
we'll for us to consider whether ii
would not be wise and profitable if
our people would devote portion OF
the state and that which is least suit
| able for cultivation 10 the growth OF
such varieties of timber as do be It
/ in this climate and as will be in de-
mand for future use. Forests fall with
! in the class OF natural resources. which
the president refers to as being cap
able of restoration, even though 1t
would require number Of years to
grow timber of sufi Gent size as to he
of commercial value. 1t requires no
great stretch of the imagination, how
ever, for one TO reach the conclusion
that future generations may be driven
to the growing Of timber for fuel when

ITCHING HUMOR
 ON LITTLE BUY
His Hands were a Solid Mass, and
 Disease Spread All Over His Body Tn Four Days the Child was Entirely Cured-Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
 SOAP AND OINTMENT

zone day we noticed that our little boy was all broken out with itching sores. We first noticed it on his little hands. His hands were not as bad then. and we didn't think anything serious would result. But the next day We heard of the Cuticura Remedies being so good for itching sores, etc., that l thought l would get them. By this time the disease had spread all over his body. and his hands were nothing but . solid mass of this itching disease. 1 went to the drug store and purchased a box of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment, and that night stripped my little boy and took the Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and washed him well. Then l dried him with soft bath towel, and took the Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him thoroughly with it. I did this every evening before put him to bed and in three or four nights he was entirely cured. You have my permission to publish this because anybody who suf- fered as my baby did ought to know of the Cuticura Remedies. l will surely and gladly recommend the Cuticura Remedies. for they are godsend to all suffering with skin diseases.

Mr. and Mrs. Bradshaw had had something Of misunderstanding before leaving home, and during the performance at the thcatcr he had made up his mind to say things on the way home. For five minutes the woman beside him ignored his existence. She was still i'm the SuliS. and she might have continued to ignore had not Mir. Brad shaw suddenly uttered swear word and announced to the chauffeur that q mistake had been made. Mrs. Dins- more gaSpcd and uttered little scream at the announcement, but did not lose her self possession. For three long hours she had been thinking how she would like to laccratc the feelings of some man. and she said:
 "Tm going to ask you how you use your wife"
 Madam. isn't that rather a singular question:" he replied.
 You may think so, but I'm some thing of a reader of character. If you are not one of the boSSy kind around vour house then I'm much mistaken. I think sou are also selfish and con ccitcd. You were at the thcatcr with your wife. I'll wager that you gave her to understand that It was mag unanimous concession on your part. Youu expect her to sit with freezing feet and save a ton of coal the next week to make even. Oh know your sort Ii you weren't so self important you'd have never made this mistake.

"It so happens that l know your hus- band. 1 know that he Is hard up and on the point of failure, and l have heard a dozen people say that 1t Is on account of your cNtravagance. Don't interrupt me. but you are living in a too expensive house. Your wardrobe costs too much. You keep too many servants. Your husband is afraid of you and dare not hint at retrench- mcnt.

There Is more Catarrh in this sec ton of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be in- curable. For a great many years doc tors pronounced it local disease an prescribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced 1t incurable. Sclenc has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar. ket. It Is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucou surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

SOME GOOD ADVICE ALL AROUND


1 more and Mrs. Bradshaw discorereGthe mistake by the time the driver had travelled a block. The vehicle WAS or dered to set them down on Maple ave nue, and they had been waiting there half an hour when the others drove up. Meanwhile they had been talking.
 "Oh, so you are Mir. Dinsmorer re- peated Mrs. Bradshaw. l have heard of your wife"
 "Yes?"
 "She goes into society good deal"
 "Yes," was the reply, accompanied by q long drawn sigh.
 That sigh caught Mrs. Bradshaw. She was q sympathetic woman by na- ture and she had just witnessed an emotional play and was more sympa- thetIc than usual. Besides, she had heard about Mrs. Dinsmore's extrava- gance. Therefore, weakkneed and hum- ble minded as she was in the presence of the overshadowfng Mir. Bradshaw, she plucked up courage to say:
 "Mr. Dinsmore, am very, very sorry for you, but yet 1t is our own fault in a way"
 Just what do you refer to?"
 "To your wife, of course. Why don't you stand right up and tell her she can't have this and that? She may have a temper, but tirmness wonld con- quer that. She may threaten divorce, but pay no attention to that. That is woman's blufr. don't think 1t too late to begin now. but you have got to make up your mind to be firm"
 T see," said MT. Dinsmore, who hadn't interrupted her speech by rais- | ing so much as a finger. Mrs. Brad shaw. 1t happens, queerly enough. that l also know something about your family matters. You are a seryile, su- pine wife. You don't dare to call your soul your own. You are bossed and bulldozed. Your husband makes you efface yourself like servant. While he belongs to three or four expensive l clubs. buys the best wines and cigars and has an auto for his special ben eft. you are squeezing the pennies and dreadIng the gas bills. Why do you do 1t? Why don't you get up and as- 1 Sert yourself:"
 Mrs. Bradshaw was gasping for breath when the other vehicle drove up, and the four saluted each other. After q moment the men stepped aside bit to explain to each other how the mistake must have come about, and their wives did the same, having been | introduced.
 "Dlnsmore," whispered Bradshaw, ''your wife has given me an internal wigging."
 Ditto" replied Dlnsmore.
 Mrs. Dlnsmore," whispered the oth- CT lady. your husband has given me the awfulest talking to ever got"
 Ditto" replied Mrs. Dinsmore.
 And then they all stood and looked at each other for an embarrassing mo- ment and then snid good night.
