How State Office Expenses Have In
creased

Before the fee system was abolished
in certain State Offices the incumbent
paid the salaries and expenses out of the
fees and pccketed the balance of the
Office income. The Senate investigation
of 1896 showed that the total expenses
of the Office of Supreme Court Clerk
were about $12, 600 annually. The last
annual report of the State Comptroller
shows that the office expenses, including
a salary of $1,000 for the clerk, amount
ed last year to s26, SOC. The expenses
and salaries of the Office of Chancery
Clerk under the fee system amounted to
about $4,000 annually. With the
clerks $1,000 salary the total last year
was $34,375. These two offices now re-
turn a considerable net income to the
State, the Supreme Court Clerk paying
over $31, 500. q last year and the Chan
Gerry Clerk only $2,5S4.42. In the pre-.
viOus year the net income from the
Chancery Clerk was as low as -, 1881. 9S,
while that from tire Supreme Court
Clerk was $l1,S55.00 greater than last
Year. Why should there be difference
against the Stale of more than eighteen
thousand dollars a year, independent of
salaries, in the running expenses of the
two court clerkships? Would the actual
expenses be as great if the Offices were
Iun under the fee system?-Newark

Doctoring q Circus Lion.

During the past winter one of the
two-year-old lions with Campbell
Brothers Consolidated Shows became
very sick; at first it was thought that
bone had become lodged in the lions
throat. To enable them to find this
out, the lion was forced into a small
animal crate, and board placed above
and below his neck, making it imposs-
ible for him to move. The crate was
then turned bottom up, the door opened
and the lions jaws forced open; then
large wooden block was placed between
his teeth so that he could not bite;
piece of copper wire, as swab, was
then run down his throat, but no bone
was found. The lion was released; but
next day was found to be worse, so
consultation of veterinary doctors,
was called, and after an examination
they decided he had diphtheria.
He was then taken to steamheated
room, where an attendant kept him
wrapped in hot blankets, which were
changed every half hour. His throat
and tongue were so swollen that he
could neither eat nor drink. His medi-
cine, as well as his nourishment, was
given by the aid of shringe For
over week he was watched carefully
by his keepers, night and day, and dur
ing all his severe illness he was as do
cile as kitten, seeming to realize that
those around him were trying to relieve
his sutferings. After much care and
worry on the part of his owners, he
soon began to recover, and today is one
of the big features of Campbell Broth
ers Consolidated Shows. Don't fail to
ask the keeper to show you the lion
that had diphtheria. Watch for the
big street parade on Monday, August
20, 1909. 1t is over mile long.

Some days ago sta .d that would
write you suggestiol in regard to
building up farm, as ,.ell as a social
and commercial paper There may be
and perhaps are farm apers published
in Colorado, if so | ha' not seen any
of them. In talking with one of the
owners of large daily and weekly pap
er he did not know of any Colorado
paper similar to his own or the Iowa
Homestead. Farmers and stockmen
are interested in those pursuits and =
will read about them and write about
them. Most merchants are land owners
to some extent and like to read town
papers. What has been done in small
town in Eastern Iowa viz, build up
strong stock journal, exclusively, can
be done in Julesburg by combining the
two, | am sure.
The paper referred to grew so fast
that they moved it to Chicago, and it
nearly stopped growing. People called
that man crazy and everything else,
but he won out in fine shape He was
a failed banker, who liked horses and
cattle, but really knew very little about
them, but he got other men to air their
views through his paper. believe
you have field there for paper like
yours that will add gradually but
steadily more of the farm and stock
features. Farm women like depart
ment for poultry. ETC.. to which they
also like to contribute. The Homestead,
Des Moines. is spreading out all over
the Mississippi and Missouri valleys,
north and south, with branch papers.
which may all be published in Des
Moines, d. 9.
With such paper you can 20 away
from home and solicit advertisements
and get them. I..
A Lincoln farm paper published by
Germans and printed in German has an
immense circulation all over the u. S.
People want that kind of information
the same as society or sporting people
want their kind. believe Julesburg
has future and is going to be big
town if its natural advantages are used

One of the recurring sources of sur
prise to the eastern Inherent who
makes occasional trips through the
west is the rapidity of the changes that
are constantly taking place. The barren
plain of one year is the well titled farm
of the year following and the hamlet
of today is the city of tomorrow.
these things are most incomprehensibIe
to the people of the effete east where
changes come slowly if they come at
all. Years ago it was freely predicted

spend itself, but it seems as if the re-
sources of the west are just being
