CRATES are too small for any practical
use, while others are so large that
they entail great waste OF fuel
Some of the closed-in stoves, those
that have revolving CRATES. may be a
little cleaner and easier to take care
of; but they lack the charm OF the
free, open CRATE. The fire never looks
the same in one of these expensive at.
fairs. 1t lacks interest. II Is a sort Of
cross between the fireplace and a
stove; 1t is neither one thing nor the
other,
Building q fireplace in any house is
a mistake unless II Is intended for
use, A sham ornament of this kind
is a mere mockery. and It is a disap-
pointment. Shams are never satisfac-
tory. A fireplace that is never used Is
a sham. II does not look well. and
should never find place In dwell
ing house.
1t is estimated that house like
the one here shown can be built com.
plete, with fireplace, fiues and regis
tiers. for from about $500 TO $4,000;
and this estimate Is probably correct
for most localities. OF course. wages
and cost Of material are very much
higher in some places than others,
and this must be taken into consid.
Grafton in studying house plans and
estimates.

TOM HELM TOLD THIS ONE

Conversation IN the house lobby at

members, mostly southerners, were
telling their various experiences.
Finally, Tom Hefiin, the Adouis from
Alabama, offered a contribution.

OUTLINES POLICY OF OFFICE

Recognition of the rights of capt.
tai in it's disputes with labor will be
the policy of the new department Of
labor, according TO the plans outlined
by Secretary William B. Wilson the
other night at dinner of the men
of Gunton-Temple Memorial Presby-
terrain church in Washington.
Some extremists say capital per
forms no function in the world OF
production and therefore is entitled
to no consideration" said Secretary
Wilson. Capital being the uncon-
sumed product of labor. Is In POSI-
ton to furnish the worker with the
means OF living until the product is
ready for use. Without the use OF
capital in that way, labor could only
be used as II is in savage countries.
Capital is one OF the elements by
which productivity may be increased
Capital furnishes the machines and
gives the worker ability to Increase
his product
Labor is the philosophers stone

CITY COUNCIL
IN SESSION

The city council met in repula,
session Monday evening. Reports Of
the various officers were read and an.

passed by the auditing committee. al.
lowed and warrants ordered drawn
The Mayor and Councilman Harr;no.

ther near the high school. It was
suggested that the building be placed
on the library lots, in one corner fac
ing the alley; this would give added
hre protection to the new building and
would allow it to be within easy reach
from nearly all sections. 1t was
thought, however. that perhaps the
high school authorities would donate
corner Of the high school grounds
being glad to have. the cart near. in
case OF bad blaze. Nothing definite
was done.
A Tax Collection Dilemma.
AS the taxes this year are for the
most part paid half in January and
half in July. the city was left in the
hole, unable to meet necessary pay
ments on the paving bonds. Mr.. Zeh
suggested that the city could weather
the storm by using for this purpose
the fund raised for the payment of
certain water bonds, the payment of
which just at this time was optional
with the city. 1t being within the
power of the city to invest this water
works money in paving indebtedness,
it was so ordered. This money will
be turned back into the paving fund
when the July collection of taxes are
made. There were 5000 in the water
works fund, which, when added to
tine $z,UUO on. hand, will meet the
paving Indebtedness.
More Money Comes to Light.
The city clerk discovered nearly a
thousand dollars which has for a long
time been lying in solitary splendor.
and which IN reality belong in active
funds. The council ordered that thew
be released from bondage and placed
with their fellows.
1t appears that when the paving
contractors were paid In bonds. at
different times, the accrued interest
was collected and placed in fund
dubbed Improvement District No. l."
Thus some $4,000 finds itself trans
ferred into the paving fund. In much
the same way fund of $l43.34 goes
into local Lateral District No. ).
One on the School Trustees.
The school trustees, who always
need money, have for the past year
overlooked nice little fund to which
they are entitled. All fines, collected
by the city are by law div,Icl be-
tween the school district and the city.
The share belonging to the school
trustees of Dristrict No. 28 now
amounts to SIP.
Cemetery Road Approved.
The new road around the cemetery
was approved by the council. The
new throughfare runs along the rim
rock, completing fine roadway clear
around the City of the Dead.

What the Saloons Cost Chicago Yearly

Chicago has 7,I52 saloons. In the Chicago local
option campaign the representative for the liquor side
Nathan A. Cole, gave figures showing that the sa-
looms OF Chicago did business of $I5oooooo year.
Mr. Collard ex-saloonkeeper, working for the dry
slde gave figures showing that the necessary income
to provide for license rent, help, liquors and profits
to keep the 7I52 saloons in operation was not less
than $I4oooo,ooo little less than $4,000 for each
saloon. The above estimate was made to Arthur
Burrage Farwel of the Chicago Law and Order
League, who agrees with Mr.. Col1ards figures An
article in the Chicago Tribune June 7, 1911, gave the
consumption of beer in Chicago in the month Of May
alone at $23372ooo. We accept Mr. Collards esti-
mate as conservative

Before these reports were completed, one of the
commissioners, who has always sought to
help the liquor in every way in his power sent
out through the press from time to time during the
last year statements tending to show that there
increase in the consumption of liquor last year.
This he would do by taking the returns from
district containing of the largest and wettest
cities and making it appear representing the whole
country. But the final report shows remarkable de-
crease, and that in the face of great increase in
population by immigration
