MEN OF PERSONALITY

With the same atmosphere Of good
cheer that has characterized it during

Mississippi River Power company's
new executive offices are at work pre-
liminary to the operating stage OF it's
activities. thus forecasting the early
completion of the building of the
greatest water power and it's use for
the purpose Of all the miracles done in
the bottom of the river.
A month or SO ago R. w. Child came
from the east to help with the per-
manent organization he formed for
the executive work to be done as long
az the almost imperishable concrete
lasts In the Mississippi. That per-
manent executive organization is now
installed in a whole floor Of the Mon
arch building on Main street below
Fifth street and is actively at work.
The Executive Force.
The same marked individuality that
characterized the construction per-
iod of the company is found in the
Stone & Webster management asso-
citation which will operate the plant
for the Mississippi River Power com
rany. as it operates thirty or forty
plants for other owners all over the
country from Key West to Oregon.
J. A. Trawick, manager, i in hos
pital, and r. W. Child is attending to
the starting of the big, new organiza-
ton for several months. The execu-
tive force consists of half dozen
men besides Mr.. Child and Manager
Trawick.
J. A. Mckinney, industrial commits
lsioner, has already become we'll known
and appreciated in the cities Of the
power zone which he is earnestly as
lsisting to build themselves up. N. P.
Wilcox, sales manager, has very i'm
lportant work, and Thomas NJ Gibbes
and G. S. Beck, power statesmen, are
experts in scientific cost accounting.
G. Walter Barr, OF the bureau of in
formation, is kept busy answering a
thousand and one seekers for knowl-
edge. G.. H. Harris is the engineer
who will be needed for several CEN
turtles. A. S. Nichols is assistant treas
urer on the ground.
Spirit Of NeIshborliness.
All the long row Of new offices
radiate hospitality to the visitor and
spirit Of cordial neighborliness. Mr..
Child stated emphatically today that
1.-The same old attitude toward the pub
lie is to be maintained ecognition
that the peoples genuine interest In
this great work entities them to per
fleet candor, and their constant friend
illness from the company.
An excellent expression of the at
Imosphere around the executive offices
of the Mississippi River Power com
pany was made by prominent clti'
zen the other day who said:
1.-THE Water Power company does
seem to want to be chummy with the
people"

Yesterday afternoon about 4:4o p.
M. the telephone in the central fire
station rang and a feminine voice in

there was fire at 1115 Grand avenue.
The fireman Immediately pulled the
alarm for the water works, and the

EPENDS On THE
PUBLIC INTEREST
whether Or Not There WIN be : Cen
eraI city Cleanup Campaign
Depends on De
nfand.
SUB COMMITTEE REPORT
roynd Conditions Bad in investigation
and May start Campaign
Ia Business
District.

whether or not there will be gen
eral city cleanup campaign this spring
similar to the one held q year ago de-
nends wholly upon the attitude of the
nublic toward it. Such is the opinion
ii the Industrial Association commit
tee on streets and alleys under whose
leadership such move would probab-
IL come. The cleanup campaign of
last year was we'll organized and
much good was done but for the most
part the results proved to be only
temporary.
1.-THE people can have Just as clean
city as they want or just as dirty a
city as they want, :" said T. r. Board,
chairman of this committee which
has been quietly conducting some in
vestigations Of local conditions. One
report which Mr.. Board has is from a
subcommittee which tabulated condi-
tons between Blondeau and Johnson
streets from the river up.
The report described pretty fully
the conditions and in great many in
stances they found rubbish was al
lowed to accumulate, public and priv
ate property rights we're infringed up
On and general unsightliness prevail
ed. The committee reports a general
lack of interest on the part OF busy
ness men and other occupants to-
ward the conditions. They are also
apt to resent any suggestions that
they clean up. The fact that there
is no congestion in the business dis
trict makes strict regard OF public
and private property rights unneces-
sary and as long as public sentiment
Goes not ask for change none Will
be made
It has been suggested that in View
q ne coming celebration every ef-
fort should be made to thoroughly
carry out the movement next spring
and the committee will probably start
such a work first between. Blondeau
and Johnson streets from the river
up. # the cleanup campaign is in
augurated for the whole city It will
be decided by the prevailing senti-
ment.

There is no good argument that
can be made against the whipping
post for the punishment of certain
kind of crimes. The whipping post
treatment properly administered
would act better as a crime deter
rent than all the jails in the land,
and to tell the truth about the
matter good clean jails and the
reputation Of putting up good
meals for the fellows who are
boarding at the expense of the tax
payers, with no work to do, have no
doubt encouraged many to do some
crime for a GOOd soft snap for the
winter months. The jails are an
incentive to crime and the tax
payers pay the expense and thus
feel the penalty. The whipping
