The new board of supervisors is unanimously democratic instead of being two to one republican as 1t has been for the past three years The record made by the democratic party through it's representatives on the board of supervisors for the many years that it was in control is an ox- ample which will be ever kept before the new board and the mistakes made by the present board will be Tarn- ings that will not go unheeded by their successors when they take of flee

Fee System Goes.

Whether the new laws and regula- tions that will go into effect with statehood will tend to greatly de- crease county operating expenses re- mains 10 be seen. In many instances the fee system is abolished and it is certain that in some instances, in smaller precincts salaries will be greater than would be fees but in the larger precincts, and in the snerift 8 office large savings appear equally certain. These matters will have to be worked out and the results will speak for themselves, It means that there is more than the usual amount of important business that will come before the board at the very outset. The fixing of salaries where fees now prevail is a matter of much import ance that will devolve upon the new board. That they will meet the is sues that confront them fairly and s0uara1y can not be doubted

Better Road Management.

There is one matter as to which something has been heard. a fire from which some smoke has curlet and yet the fact that matters were not as they should be with the coun- ty roads and their management has SC far as possible been kept under cover. It was not possible to pre- vent a little leakage during the re- cent campaign, but while the facts would have made excellent campaign material. the democrats did not find it necessary to use it and the results proved that it was unnecessary.
 Ever since the republican board went into power there has been dis satisfaction over the expenditure of road funds. There has been feeling that the results that were being ob- tained were not commensurate with the amount of money spent. The new board will have this problem to solve and it's solution will be watched for with interest. The road supervls' or is primarily responsible but above him comes the board. A more efii' cient management of the road funds and better results for the money ex pended is therefore to be confidently looked for under the new regime.
 The matter of county auditor or a periodical examination of the books of the county will also be handled m a manner different from that which created scandal in the present board and added to the taxpayers burden These are but a few of the many things that a democratic board will have under consideration at the very outset of it's term of power. They will seek to make better record and at a lower cost than have theil eN4i- predecessors.

Representative Oscar w. Un-
derwood, Chairman Of the Ways
and Means Committee of the
House, has sounded a warning
against Congressional eXtrav-
agauce. 1t looks now as though
the "pork barrel" would have to
be set in a corner untapped.
Even expenditures for the Dis
trict of Columbia are greatly
pared. A contemplated eXpen-
diture of S16,OOO,0O0 for public
buildings has been shunted in
caucus. Not only House Leader
Underwood, but other prominent
Democrats have been taking in
ventory of the situation. Here
are some of the things disclosed:
The ordinary Government rev.
enues for 1911 of $500, 100, 906
were S45, 681, 619 in excess of the
ordinary expenditures.

published in Washington as or

"The much Wanted surplus ap-
pears to have been due to the
failure of the Department to pay
its bills, and the antiquated sys-

resulted in this appalling increase
as a shameful violation of all
prudent conditions of govern
ment as no less than a crime
against the millions of working
men and women from whose
earnings the greater proportion
of these colossal sums must be
extorted through excessive tar
iff eXactions and other indirect
methods. 1t is not surprising in
view of this shocking record
that the Republican platform
contains no reference to econom-
ical administration or promises
thereof in the future. We de-
mand that a stop be put to this
frightfuI extravaganza, and in
sist upon the strictest economy
in every department compatible
with frugal and efficient admin
istration.
"Coincident with the enor-
nous increase in expenditures is
a like addition'.to the number of
office holders. During the last
year 23,784 were added, costing
SIG, 156, 600, and in the last six
years of the Republican admin S.
tration the total number of new
offices created has been 99,319
an additional expenditure Of
nearly $40, OOO,O 900 as against on
ly 10, 279 new offices created I'M
der the Cleveland and Mckinley
administrations, which involved
an expenditure of only $6.000,-
900. We denounce this great
and growing increase of the
number of office holders as not
only unnecessary and wasteful,
but also as clearly indicating a
deliberate purpose on the part of
the administration to keep the
Republican party in power at
public expense, by thus increas-
ing the number of its retainers
and dependents.
THE conscience of the nation
is now aroused to free the gov
eminent from the grip of those
who have made it business as.
set of the favor-seeking corpora
tions. 1t must become again q

ministered according to the JEFF
fersonian maxim: Equal right:

ers are pointing out that tn
