WHAT COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
DID FOR LEAvENWoRTH.

The local committee also wrote to
one OF the leading labor men OF Leav-
enworth. to learn labors opinion or
the new system. George b. Edgell, q
member OF the trades and labor coun-
ell of Leavenworth. answers the ques-
tions asked him as follows:
Is the tax rate under commission
government greater or less than be-
fore?
THE taxes are about the same"
Is the commission plan less expen-
sive for the city than the former plan?
No; 1t is not
Does the city get more for its money
and better service than before?
Yes; 1t does"
To what extent have you eliminated
politics?
"The the extent that you can get a
good man in office without being tied
up with promises"
Are the citizens OF your city salts
fled with the new government?
They are"
Is union labor as well or better off
under the new government as under
the old?
"About the same"
Give any other facts yoL. may have
fer or against the new government
1T gives an honest man the privi-
lege OF running for office regardless
of party politics.
Mr.. Edgell. 1t Will be noticed, says
taxes are about the same In Leaven-
worth. But. II will further be noticed,
he says the city gets more for its
money than before. The commission
system invariably Is more economical
than the old. Whether the saving thus
effected goes to the lowering OF the
tax rate or to increased service Is
for each city to decide. In Leaven-
worth the tax rate Is the same, but
the saving under the new system IL
applied to better service--to giving the
citizens more for their money.-Pus-
bio Chieftain.

Among others, Ross mentioned the old
man In the ditch.

CHAPTER XIV.
SHADOWS ON THE MIST.

hhb'Np w mn Mihls
THE decision which Cavanagh
made between love and duty
distinguished the officer from
the man. the soldier from the
civilian. He did not hesitate to act.
and yet he suffered a mental conflict
that inhuman sacrifice on the altar OF
greed.
1T VIII be hours before any part oil
the sheriff's posse can reach the falls
even though they take TO the swifiest
motors. and then other long hours
must intervene before / can ride down

must drag their slow course before 1
can hope to be of service to her" And
the thought drew groan OF anxiety
from him. At such moments OF mental
stress the trail is torture and the
mountain side an inexorable barrier.
Halfway to the hills he was inter
cepted by an old man who was at
work on an irrigatiDg ditch beside the
road. He seemed very nervous and
very inquisitive, and as he questioned
the ranger his eyes were like those Of
dog that fears his masters hand
