Governor Hall and his state

Governor Hall and his state
board of education, have received
terrific jolt by the decision Of
Attorney General Peasants, in
the ease Of the state high school
inspector. 1t will be remember.
ed that Governor Hall named n
new state board as soon as he
was escorted TO Baton Rouge,
and they proceeded to explode, by
removing the high school inspec-
tor, whose salary was being paid
by the general education board
Of New York, and filling his place
by another When the news
reached New York, the secretary
of the general educational board
asked for information concern
ing the removal of Mr.. Favrot,
which the state board refused to
furnish, when the salary Of this
officer was withdrawn
The position of high school in.
spector is an important one. 1t
was suggested by the New York
organization and the offer was
made that it would pay the sal
airy of the officer if the state
board of education would APP
prove it. This was accordingly
done, and continued for many
years until the removal of Favrot
took place, and A. c. Bernard, of
st. Martin. was selected to fill his
place. It looked like politics was
being mixed with the school sys
tenn, and the looks have not
changed. And then the state
board held a meeting, appropriat-
ed a sufficient sum to meet the
salary Of Mr.. Bernard, which is
not authorized by any law, and
then the fight started. 1t finally
reached the attorney general. who
gave his opinion that the action
was unwarranted. which means
that the money must be returned
to the educational fund, while
Mr.. Bernard holds an office which
does not exist.-Franklin Watch

the big prize. And the winner
does not have to yield ownership
IN his invention to get the 800.

prizes for industrial research. this
prize is bonus, not purchase

found, he capable Of manufacture
from some substance produced in
Great Britain. there is another
pirze ready for the fortunate in
ventor, the 1000 guineas $50, 500

Motor Manufacturers and Trad

dition. The Royal Automobile
Society of England will conduct
tests OF adj fuels offered for this
prize.
Along the same line of auto
mobile improvement is an oppor.
tunity TO win $500 by simple
mechanical invention. This sum
will be paid by the Royal Auto.
mobile Society of England for the
best carburetor, the fund having
been placed in the soclety's hands
by Mr.. G. X. Chamberlain. an
American. This contest is open.
like the others mentioned, to in
ventors Of all the world.
"The largest standing prize in
America for an invention is one of
10000 for machine for pulling
and topping sugar beets. offered
by the Great Western Sugar Com

horses not more than four horses

IF not won by March I. 1915, the
prize may be withdrawn, hut the
first device offered before that
date that fulfills all the require
nents will get the prize-and tho
inventor will retain the ownership
of his invention.
Fifteen years ago the Louisi.
ana Sugar Planters Association
offered a prize of $4,000 for n su.
gar-cane harvester. Thus far
none has been produced that meets
all the requirements. and the prize
offer has lapsed, but many inven.
tors are at work on this line, and

whoever makes a success
full cane harvester will become a
very quickly, and will
not need the $1,000.

FORTUNES IN PRIZES WAIT

Every little while report
gains currency that a million-dol-
lar prize has been offered for the
performance of some impossible
mathematical feat or the inven-
ton of some contrivance of prob

persons have been deluded into
spending their time and money
in the pursuit of these phantom

that there must be many genuine
prizes waiting to be won. Popu-

10000. OOOO HORSE POWER.

Twelve billion horse power
that is the combined electrical
power output of the 1900 central
stations in the United States. Can
YOU conceive what these figures
actually meant
One literal soul to whom the
question was recently put objected
that "there aren't that many hor-
SEES IN the world !
There aorn' The objection
was perfectly sound. But the fact
remains that the power output
Of this country central stations
is Just about equal TO The energy
Of those twelve billion hvpothe-
teal edulnps.
And that is not one half Of The
total electrical power produced IL
the United States. The twelve
billion total includes only public
service companies and does no.
lilf|iht tl' p'fHl S''dH' ldll|''t
and manufacturing companies
which produce and use their own
power. The total power thus
prodrced is easily double the ont
put of the central stations.
It is little difficult for the
mind to grasp what such vast
amounts Of power really mean
Take it this way The largest
standard locomotives which pn'I
fastest passenger trains are rated
AT about 5000 horse power. u
would take nearly 5.O0O,00O OF
these bic locomotives 10 equal the
energy produced by American
electrical power stations. Take
the biggest transatlantic liner.
nearly q thousand feet long,
with it's engines rated ut 10000
horse power. TO equal the elec-
trical poser output OF the Unit
ed States would take 3l2 S57 OF
these liners. with combined
length that world reach more
than twice around the globe.
The figures Of the census Of
1910 ON the electrical industry
are astounding. and yet these
are admittedly incom-
plete.
"The growth Of electrical IN
dustries has been SO rapid, = rec
entity declared. DR.. Schuyler
Skaats Wheeler, President of the
rocker Wheeler Co. that no
method has yet been devised by
the Government census takers to
its qualifications in the
census Of Manufactures. No mat
ter to what extent the steam rail
roads electrify, they are still
under steam railroads.
The thousands of poles used to
string wires are classified under
the lumber industry The great
copper companies, producing |
practically exclusively for elee-
Irical Industries. are classified M
der the copper industries.
DR. Wheeler estimates that the
total business In electrical ma
ohinery in the United States was
in the ncighborhood Of 1900, ZOO |
300 for 1919. This estimate seems
conservative when we realize that
he last census reported the total
business for 1909 at S243,0O0, 900
Facts and figures like these
make one realize how rapidly and
completely the practical appllca
ion of electrical power is revo-
utionizing all modern life aud
industry.

PROMINENT CITIZEN
STOPPED HIS
PAPER.

A prominent citizen that is he
is called prominent because he IS
very wealthy stopped his paper
because of the editorial the Daily
Times printed Tuesday in which
it criticised the wealthy residents
of the city for not making some
concerted effort to advertise and
help develop Lake Charles and
vicinity. lnasmueh as this soc a
month is all he has ever contri-
buted to the support Of the Daily
Times, and inasmuch as the sub
scription came in voluntarily and
was not solicited, it is highly
probable that the paper will not
suspend publication at once, any
way
Leading citizens are leading
only insofar as they lead Those
who should lead in Lake Charles
are laggards. They have made
their fortunes here. but entertain
no feeling of pride or gratitude
which might prompt them to help
build a city out of a country
town. What the Daily Times said
Tuesday it repeats. even If tho
prominent citizen did not
think it was just the thing to say.
If the paper prints his sworn as
sessment, showing what he is pay
ing taxes on. and then prints a
list Of what he owns within tho
city limits he will likely think
that, also. is very unjust.
It is such narrow minded. thin
skinned, penurious and short
sighted "leading citizens" who
do more to keep back city than
a whole anvil chorus of street cor

Memorial Bridge Suggestions.
o the Editor OF The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
Now that the friends of the proposed
memorial bridge across the Potomac to
Arlington are considering the details OF
its design, perhaps a suggestion may not
be unwelcome. In a bill introduced at
the last session OF Congress there was a
plan to place statues % Grant and Lee
at either end of the bridge. There will be
no dissenting word 10 this. most surely.
but would II not add to the artistic SYM
metry of the design and to the memorial
value or the bridge itself III two statues
We're placed a. both ends?
To whom. then, should the honor go?
WY not in this way pay "a tribute TO
two of the most gallant victims OF the
fortunes OF battle in the whole war? OPP
posite the hero OF VIcksburg and of APP
pomattox what ~orthier figIre could stand
than the heroic commander OF the LIST
Corps at Gettysburg-John Fulton Rey-
nolds? 10 his prompt action in hurry
ing his troops TO the support of Buford' $
thin line of Dragons on the morning OF
the 1st of July. '6S. is due more than
anything else the choice of that historic
battlefield In sending word to Meade OF
the heavy Confederate advance and his
own apprehension lest he might be forced
back, Reynolds wrote: II will fight them
inch by inch. and il driven into the town
viii barricade the streets and hold out as
long as possible" Meade's comment was
That's just like Reynolds; he will hold
out to the bitter end
Is it any wonder that Reynolds infused
such a spirit into his men as to draw
