NOMINATIONS BY COMMITTEE.

The important part of the Valley
City meeting of the insurgents, of
course, is the committee of elm.
ination" which will dispose of sup
erfluous candidates, and insure the
support of single set Of candidates
BY as nearly united faction of the
republican party as it is possible to
get together at the polls.
This Is an entirely human and ma
t0ral plan. 1t is just such a plan
as the leaders of the insurgents have
been condemning when practiced by
any one else, and just such a one
rs they might be expected to adopt
for the interest of the insurgent fac
ton. 1t is presumed, however, that
the insurgent leaders and insurgent
press will defend it as entirely prop
or and commendable.
A committee on elimination"-
which is a committee to select be-
tween candidates until there is only
zone candidate left for each office to
be filled-is entirely opposed to the
letter and spirit of the primary elec-
ton law. Yet it is the natural re-
suit of the law, which prevents con.
aventions, and whose purpose is to

give everybody an equal chance for
q nomination.
The primary law, in reality, does
nothing of this sort. 1t permits any
man to become a candidate for Of
fee, but it does not and never will
prevent factions of parties from un-
iting to the support of this man or
that man, or this or that set of men.
A committee on elimination is a
sort of final nominating committee.
Instead of an old time convention
of four or five hundred delegates,
we now have a committee of three
or five men acting for the people
in the capacity of nominators.
1t is entirely natural, human and
practical to do this. But it seems
strange, coming from the leaders
who have so long, bitterly and unin-
terruptedly reviled "bossism, "
"rings," conventions "cliques"
and the like.

BUILDING RECORD IN CHICAGO
EcLIPsEs THOSE OF ALL
PREVIOUS YEARS.

Chicago, Jan. 14.-The fiat building
total Of $4,000, 900 for 1909 is against
$34,0OO,0OO for 1908 shows how the
cliff dwelling p9a2ensity gains in
Chicago, as in other big cities. For
the total investment in detached
houses was but $4,512,0O0 The total
OF new building for the year, $780,.
100000, and the new Chicago and
Northwestern railway station, $40OU,.
900. The record eclipses those of all
previous years, even that of the
worlds fair, the total of 1907 being
$50, 900 900. The total investment for
housing folks in 1909 has been over
$42,500,000, that for new factories and
warehouses, s13,75O.0OO. The spread
Of the fiat, particularly the two-flat,
has beaten expectations and the
apartment has grown as astoundingly
as the rents. 1t is no long since ap-
artments renting from 500 to $3.50
a month were rarity, while new
rentals Of from $4,000 to $4,000 a year
are becoming quite an ordinary thing.
As the results of continued good
times people are demanding better
apartments, and the conveniences and
luxuries which go with the ordinary
fiat building of the day were unknown
to the ultra high grade buildings of
only few years ago. AS has been
the case for years, the great south
building division Of the city led all
others in amount of fiat construction
during the year with a grand total
OF $13,447, 500, as against $11,S61, 800
for the previous year. The north
division came next with $9,937 400.

TAFT AND CONSERVATION.

President Taft's special message
on conservation shows that he is
sane advocate of the protection, pre-
servation and wise administration of
our national resources. He sensibly
remarks that no sane person will
contend that the blessings of nature
must be held untouched for genera
tions yet unborn. This would be
conservation carried to the extreme
of nonsense. Our great national re-
sources are for the blessing and hap
piness of the present generation, and
should be so utilized as to bring the
greatest amount of wealth, comfort
and happiness to the people of this
land.
But they should not be wasted.
Our forests should not be denuded
without regard to their replace
ment. In Germany trees must be
planted for all that are cut down.
In that way forests are renewed and
perpetuated. Nature wisely provid-
es for the replenisnment of the food
We eat and the clothing we wear but
she does not replenlsa the iron ore
or the coal. She relies upon the in
ventive genius of man to live and
work with what resources he has at
hand, and it may be that in half a
dozen generations we shall have an
other source of heat and energy than
coal. At the same time, our coal de-
posits should not be allowed to fall
into the control Of monopolies,
neither should our power sites be
surrendered carelessly. All of these
matters are subjects for wise and
sensible legislation, looking as we'll
to the development of our resources
as to their conservation. The presi-
dents message brings the whole mat
ter clearly to the attention of con-
gress.
