TICK ERADICATION.
l.. T. Andrews Says This Work Has
Largely Raised Cattle Valuations.

l.. Y. Andrews, president Of
Northeast Arkansas Cattle Tick
Eradication Commission, in a
statement regarding the results
accomplished by the board, de-
clares that the commission, with
1000 at its Disposal in 1909, in
creased valuations n certain
counties to the extent Of $780,
900.
"What would il mean to the
state of Arkansas TO eradicate tho
fever tick altogether?" he asks.
"Let our people stop and think n
minute. What would it mean for
all the people to eat good healthy
beef and for our babies to drink
wholesome milk? No individual
on our commission received one
penny for his expenses, except
travelling expenses, but every
member will hail with joy the
day when tho last germ of Texas
,or 'splenic' fever is wiped from
tho state. Then every man,
woman and child in the state will
know that bealthful milk, butter
and beef are being used. The
day will never come when every
farmer in the state knows what
his cattle are worth until the few
or tick is eradicated."
The legislature last year levied
an annual tax Of five cents per
head upon all catde within tho
Northeast Arkansas Tick Eradi-
cation district, which comprises
all the territory in the counties Of
Clay, Greene, Randolph, Law

Secrecy in Public Agencies.

There is nothing essentially indicative of
graft or wrong doing in the report from Nor
folk of the sale by the corporation of 100000
gallons of city water to a private company, at a
price at which the private corporation has been
reselling the same at profit of 381a cents per
thousand gallons.
The water in question is consumed in one of
the wards Of the city, which we gather has suf-
fered shortage in supply, and has been furnish
ed blythe city pending negotiations for lease
of the property of the private concern. Before
deaaneiation of the action of the Board Of Con-
troll it ought to be considered that the sale is of
water simply I'VE hope purely, also) and that
the purchaser who distributes it does so by
means of its investment in mains, plants, etc.
But while it may be that the arrangement is
advantageous to the city, the Board of Control
placed itself in a bad light when it adopted the
policy of secrecy. 1t was dealing as the agent
of the people, and as the custodian and trustee
of the peoples funds. To deal otherwise than
with entire openncss in such capacity was to
invite criticism as natural as inevitable. Exact
responsibility to the duties of public office seems
to be the thing most difficult for public officials
to realize in the first instance, and most easy
for them to forget in the next. He is wise of
WIN tdu IldIh uAl IiIiiSCiI Tile points ut
which administrative duty ends and proper dis
erection begins. The question ought however,
always to be resolved in favor of administration
and against assumption of authority not specif-
cally contemplated. The people make laws and
select their executors; they engage in business
and appoint agents. Until such legal trustees
shall come to see that virtue in public Office is
measured by the degree in which its adminstra-
ton is representative, there viii continue to be
bred suspicion which will not infrequently
have both natural warrant and actual cause
