DISBURSEMENTS.

This years fair was q record
breaker in more ways than one. More
premiums were awarded this year than
ever before, the amount expended
bring fully $500 larger than in any
previous year, and reaching the
formidable sum of S926.25. This
amount the society expects to receive
from the State not later than December
10th next. There is an annual appro.
priation for State Fairs and this
years fund contains approximately
s77, 900 which will be divided among
II Fair Associations, each to receive
the amount expended for premiums,
but not In excess of $1,000. AS soon
as this money is available, the over
draft can be paid and the Indebtedness
OF the society reduced to less than
s4O0.
This would practically wipe out the
society's debt, something the directors
have been striving for ever since the

FRANK E. HOWE. Editor and Pub'r

A number of the peoples servants
at present holding down temporary
jobs at the state capital have COM
planned rather bitterly that they have
been unfairly used by many Of the
newspapers of the state during the
present session of the legislature.
The criticism of the ten senators
who blocked the removal Of the
time lock" on the constitution has
been rather severe, judging from the
standpoint of Vermont journalism.
Likewise the members Of the house
whose votes defeated the primary
elections bill have been touched up
rather sharply by some of the state
papers If these lawmakers are dis
posed to resent the comparatively
mild reflections cast upon their judg-
ment, we would suggest a perusal of
the manner in which an Oklahoma
editor named F. H. Greer announces
a change of administration in his
commonwealth. Here it is:
BLESS God for a change. It could
be no worse, and we hope It will be
very much better. Monday was the
most fortunate day in the history of
Oklahoma. c. N. Haskell, the
scourge Of the state, retired from OIL
fee. If state ever was cursed by
the private. and public acts of an ex-
ecutive, then Oklahoma is it. The
state has been made the Jest OF the
United States. 1t has been sneered
at by honest folk, repudlated by f.
nanciers and laughed at by states
men. The fantastic acts OF the rank
est demagogue who ever sat in a
public place have caused bad odors
everywhere to the great financial
loss and general disgrace of the state.
No man with proper regard for
conscience could praise Haskell.
Governor Cruce is a conservative and
we believe has honesty and sense. He
has the chance to redeem the sullied
name of Oklahoma. We hope he will
do It. We congratulate the people
that a change has come-that the
sunlight may now have chance to
percolate the many dark recesses. If
Cruce is Independent and lifts the
lid, let him be praised Goodbye,
Haskell, you rascal! Welcome Cruce,
the harbinger OF hope! And now,
will all please join in that sublime
hymn, Praise God From Whom All
Blessings Flow!

TURoN'S RECORD.
Town of Six Hundred Has Built Four
Miles of Cement Walk.

Miles of Cement Walk.
In the southwest corner Of Reno
county, Kan, where the Ell Paso di-
vision of the Rock Island railroad
crosses the Larned branch Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad, is the town Of
Turon, which the 1910 census report
gives population Of 612. Some eight
cen months ago commercial club was
organized in Turon. Its roll now num-
bers 103 members. Since It's organiza-
ton four miles Of four foot cement
sidewalk have been built In Turon. A
sidewalk on both sides of the street
extends from the Missouri Pacific de-
pot to the Rock Island depot, a dis
lance of half mile. All the side streets
are improved with similar walks.
Some time ago Turon built a new
schoolhouse. 1t was located about nine
blocks from the business section, and
as soon as 1t was finished cement walks
were laid from the business part Of
town. That's the way they do things
In Turon and may In part explain why
Turon has increased In population 60
per cent since the last census was
taken.
Can you beat Turon's recordi Are
you trying TO? If not, why not?

BABYS SKIN TORTURE

"When our baby was seven weeks old

tors in AtchiSon but he only got worse.
His face. head and hands were solid

time he took the disease until he was

you would call good. We tried every

Pay Of Legislators

1--WE believe it would be a wise
move to pay members Of the legisla-
ture by the session instead of by the
day and we move that the necessary
steps to that end be instituted when
the legislature reconvenes,"-Bur-
ington Free Press.
The st. Adams Messenger approves
of this scheme and thinks that "a
similar opinion is growing among the
careful observers of the state press"
The idea is not q new one and per
haps it would do no harm to make the
experiment, although The News is of
the opinion that it would not prove
all that the able contemporaries ap-
pear to hope for.
A body of men like the average Yer
mont legislature, composed largely of
citizens without experience in law
making, must have time to get the
run OF things, no matter how much
actual ability they may possess. The
long established form of social dis
sipatons Of the first few weeks of
session would also be hard TO break
away from under any circumstances,
and by the time the legislative body
had settled down to business its men,
bers would begin to figure the finan-
cial situation, il they were paid by
the job, and a majority would I'M
doubtedly be ready to 90 home, no
matter where the business OF the
state stood, in order not to meet with
financial loss to themselves.
In fact many of the members could
not afford to stay in Montpelier after
they had used up their salary in liv-
ing expenses All this would tend
TO hurried legislation which is always
to the advantage OF the lobby lines
Il seems to The News that the mem
bers should be paid for the actual
number of days work performed, as
shown by a roll call each morning or
II necessary at each session of the
House and Senate. with mileage al
lowance for the term. not exceeding
10 cents per mile. This would have
tendency to keep the legislators
onto the job until It was finished.
However. it is probably useless to
hope for any legislation on this mat
ter at this session or at any future
time until the voters wake up and
assert their determination to have a
different order of things. Then a
remedy will be found and more eific-
lent legislation at much less expense
will be the result.-Northfeld News.
