Spokane Spokesman Review.-The
financial experience of Des Moines
with government by commission shows
that this puts money in the pocket
as we'll as civic pride in the heart.
It's former form of government usu-
ally was wasteful and always was in
competent and futile. The. fault lay
in the system. When efficient men
took public office they became incap-
able. and the finances were run in slip
shod ways.
Government by. commission in Des
Moines changed all that. The old gov
ernment had left its finances in A
tangle. the new managers within n
year cut out all extravaganza. An
ancient annual deficit Of $25.000 TO
$50.000 was converted into a surplus.
Every department showed increased
efficiency. Increased amounts Of
business are transacted and yet at
decreased cost.
The city now lives within its in
come, a blessing that under the old
system was enjoyed only once in a
generatiOh.

Thirty-o2e Applican-'
For Enumerators.

TGirty-one applicants stood the ex-
animation for census enumerators be-
fore Postmaster Leapheart on Satur-
day. OF this number seven were
negroes. There was only one young
woman, Miss E;lnice Wessinger, a
graduate Of Winthrop.
Following is list Of those who took
the examination, tngather with the
names Of the Townships:

Bull Swamp and Sandy Run were
not represented here. There was an
examination held at Chapin for the
townships in the Fox, but we have
not been able to get a list Of those
taking the examination in that
locality.
1t was general surprise that tae
number CT applicant: were so small,
when it is understood that the enumer-
ators will make something like So per
day. The successful applicants will
learn cf their appointment about the
18th, it is thought. In those town
ships where there were no applicants
it is likely that Supervisor DaPra will
appoint some suitable person for the
jobs. 1t is also probable that, should
the supervise, decide that the appli-
cants for any township are unfit or
incapable, that he will make the ap-
pointment from his office.

ROLLED DOG ON BARREL
Life-savers Rescued Drowning Setter
and Hurried It to Hospital.

From the New York World.
Captain Armstrong, night superinten.
dent Of the morgue, and Joseph Leray
and John McGann of the Bellevue hos
pital service, watching the river from
the foot of East Twenty-sfxth street
about D. m. yesterday, spied In mid
stream what seemed a human head,
bobbing to the choppy surface between
dips as the current sped, it along. The
three men dropped into the life-saving
boat in the dock, and after hard and
rapid pull of $50 yards. reached the
head. Leray leaned over and hauled
into the boat-a setter dog, buffeted
into insensibility, but still warm.
The rescuers made for shore as fast
as they could and carried their uncon-
scious burden to Drs. Smith and Car.
lu cci in the admission ward at Belle
vue. The doctors rolled the dog on a
barrel, pried open it's jaws, and worked
it's legs to induce respiration.
1t looked Ike nearly hopeless case
until DR.. Carlucci poured pint Of
whisky into the resistless jaws to keep
the backward river water company.
That had effect, for the dog sighed.
Then the doctors wrapped the patient
in hot blanket and put it on coil
of sizzling steam pipes in the boiler
room
In half an hour the engineer, slip
ping his hand inside the blanket, felt .
grateful tongue tapping it. He shifted
the blanket to a spot less scorching
and peeped inside. The cure was
working too we'll for utterance, but
about two houys later, when It had
been slept of. the blanket opened UNI

stepped out, with its tail in good order.
