LIFE AN UNCERTAIN GAME.
Systems for Reaching Old Age as
Doubtful as Those for Acqulr-
Ing Wealth.

The late John w. Gates, who was
frequently spoken OF as "plunger,",
played Wall street on system, and
was thirty or forty million dollars
ahead of the game when he died at
the age of fifty-six.
Thomas A. Edison, luckily among
those guests who escaped unframed
from the Carlton hotel fire in London.
Is now sixtyfour He also has his
system" applied to living, by which
he declares he expects to attain the
patriarchal age OF one hundred and
fifty
A man died in Minnesota lately only
eleven days short Of the century mark.
AS is too often the case, this near
centenarian was a hard drinker and
an inveterate smoker. Maybe IL he
had lived temperate life he might
have rounded out the full hundred
years.
But 1t all goes to show what an I'M
certain game life Is. Some men take
things easy and pass off in their
prime. Edison works is or IS hours
day. intends never to retire, and is
going stronger than ever at sixty-four.
The only positive assurance the
wizard inventor can have In regard
to the long span he looks to, and
which all the world cordially wishes
him, Is. that he has achieved $50
years worth Of work already.

HOW TALKING SIGNS WORK
Mechanism Of These Changing Elee-
trio Light Bulletins Is Intricate
but Operates Easily.
New York, Oct. 16, 1911

The electric light talking sign was
introduced to New York about ten
years ago, one of the earliest IL not
the first one displayed being that at
Broadway and Thirty-sixth street. BY,
changing the firm or goods to be adyer-
tised such sign becomes a perma-
nent investment. This possibility is
OF equal value to the advertiser, for It
Is of course less expensive to hire such
service for desired length OF time
than to erect large sign for his own
exclusive use.
One of these talking signs, which Is
rs feet long. has letters feet high and
4 feet broad. The space is divided into
fifteen monograms. as they are called
Each of these monograms contains
forty-eight changes. That is, forty
eight letters and numerals can be
shown in SUCCESSFULLY in that one AXIS
foot space. Each monogram space is
perforated by forty lamps which form
the fortyeight combinations.
The changes are controlled by
rather intricate arrangement which,
according to the Edison Monthly, con
sists OF motor with commutator
for each monogram. By system of
metal dogs, not unlike the Yale lock
in principle, the arrangement can be
80 adjusted beforehand that the prop
er connections are made with each
revolution Of the commuatator to
form the letters and figures wanted in
certain order. Reimbursement can be
made as often as desired. so that II
the owner needs to have new mes
sage each night he has only to plan
out the combinations.

The Cost OF A Primary.

The Webster City Freeman Tribune
points out that Hamilton county had
a primary ten years before it was a
general law in Iowa How was it held2
Who paid the expense? and was it re-
spectedi These questions are pertinent
and are easily answerable. The Repub-
lican voters in the county did most of
the work free of charge, because they
were interested in the party and in the
principles for which the party stands.
There was no trouble whatever about
it. Such incidental expense as was
necessary was easily paid with money
raised by general subscription.
The trouble with great many peo-
pie is that they cannot conceive of an
election or primary without q lot of
incidental expense. They seem to- for
get that men do not serve as election
judges and clerks for the money there
is in it. They serve in these capacities
because they regard it as part of
their duties as citizens. There is no
need of big state or county expen 3
in connection with the holding of a
presidential primary. of course, if the
money was available to be used fol
this purpose it could be used. Mer

can be found who will take any sum
or available for the pur-
pose. But if the state central commit
tee puts it up to the various county
organizations to hold primary in
which voters shall be given an oppor-
tunity to register their preference it
will be done and that without any elab-
crate expense account.
Senator Stephenson found no trouble
in getting rid of large sum of money
in his primary campaign in Wisconsin.
Charles Taft spent considerable sum
in supporting the candidacy of his
brother for the republican nomination
three years ago, all of which was of
no value whatever in affecting the re-
suit. Roosevelt's influence made any
other nomination impossible at that
time and if Charles had not spent a
dollar the result would have been just
what it was.
What Iowa republicans need now is
not an elaborate and expensive primary
plan but simple enlargement of the
functions of county and precinct com
mitteemen which will enable them to
draft helpers in the various precincts of
the state for the purpose of making re-
cord of republican preferences for presi-
dental candidates. The notion that the
republican party in Iowa cannot hold a
primary without al, enormous fund but
that it can hold caucuses without ex.
pense is absurd. Let the state commit
tee send forth the mandate and it will
be obeyed without question. -Nonpariel
In Audubon, like a great many Other
counties in the State, there existed 9
county primary for number of years
