A night watchman is a splendid
thing for Smyrna, but what good is
he without police powers? When
called recently before Council, Night
Watchman John NJ. Wick said his
understanding was he only had power
to make arrests on Saturday night
when he was acting as special officer.
He was told he had police powers all
the time. Now he has rendered his
resignation as special officer of the
Town of Smyrna and still retains the
position as night watchman for the
merchants of Smyrna. The query is:
what police powers has he?

Some papers of the state are kick
ing up big hollabaloo over Cover
nor Miller appointing his son Thomas
w. Miller Secretary of State, but the
Governor, in his wisdom, disregarded
these journals and made the appoint
ment according to his own wishes in
the matter. And why shouldn't he?
The appointment was personal and
surely the Governor felt his son quail
fed for the position or he would not
have named him. OF course the ap-
pointment did not set well with some
perennial seekers after Office, but
after all is said the Governor did
wisely. The state has not only an
upright and capable Secretary of
State, but the Governor has in this
important and responsible post one
who can Tighten his cares and in
whom he has the utmost confidence.

very best and to have someone al

While the time will come when the
United States will consume every
bushel of wheat grown within its
borders and every barrel of flour made
b.. its mills, and while the export de-
mand for flour is growing less and
less, the annual exports of wheat and
-four from this country still amount
to a great tonnage. On an average
crop the United States exports about |
500, 900, 900 bushels of wheat, in 1908 |
we exported nearly 100, 900, 900 |
bushels, and the average annual ex-
ports of -four by the Minneapolis mills
alone for the last five years were
over 1000, 900 barrels. The wheat
of Minnesota and the Dakotas and the
-four made in their mills which goes
abroad are now carried during the
season of navigation down the Great
Lakes and then by railroad or canal to
the seaboard. The freight from Min
neapolis to New York per one hundred
pounds on export shipments is 10. so
cents lake and rail and two cents
higher all rail.
An enterprise backed by some of
the most experienced men in the
country i / inland water transportation
proposes on the completion of the six
foot channel to carry wheat and -four
by river from Minneapolis to ship
side at New Orleans for export at a
rate of ten cents per one hundred
pounds, or at about one-half the cost
of present transportation to the At
lantic seaboard. Coal has for many
years been transported by water from
Pittsburg to New Orleans, practically
the same distance as from Minneap-
oils to that port, at five cents per one
hundr ed pounds. At the proposed
rate to New Orleans they can COM
pete, of course, with the present rate
and they believe that they can also
compete with any rate which can be
made on the completion of the new
Erie Canal on wheat shipments via
the Great Lakes and canal on ac-
count of the necessity of breaking
bulk, with an extra elevation charge,
on transhipment to the canal carriers,
while on flour shipments the rail haul
from mill to lake port of departure
would be eliminated. Compared with
the saving in the river rates to sea-
board over the present routes, the
greater sea carriage from New Orleans
to European ports would be negligi-
BILE. The river route would, more
over. be open for longer period OF
the year and the time in reaching
seaboard, about eleven days, would
be no longer if as long. From" Pre-

All Floor Space Taken and
Additional Tents Erected for
Agricultural Displays

Months of unceasing endeavor and
enterprise eliminated at noon today,
when the redwood doors of the Cali
fornia land show and home industry
exhibition at Eighth and Market
streets were opened to the public.
All floor space has been taken. In
fact, SO heavy has been the demand
from exhibitors from all sections of
the state that, at the last moment. it
was found necessary to erect addi-
tional tents.
Prizes already have been awarded
to several entrants for the speed. with
which they established their exhibits.
1t Is predicted by those in charge that
the exhibition will establish prece-
dent in San Francisco and that the
land show is to become a yearly fea-
ture.
Particular attention is being paid to
the educational and entertainment
features. Last night great festival
chorus, under direction of Howard f..
Pratt. held its final rehearsal. In
addition to the chorus several mu-
steal organizations will be heard in
daily and nightly concerts, among
them being Hawaiian orchestra, the
San Francisco Choral society and
Scottish bagpipers. Some of the best
known soloists and instrumentalists
from. the bay districts also are sched-
uled to appear regularly.
