FOR THE COMMISSION FORM
OF GOVERNMENT.

J The Commonwealth is most
heartily in favor of the Commits
sion Form Of Government for the
City of Greenwood, because of
the fact that all of the progressive
and growing cities throughout the
country which have adopted il
are highly pleased with its opera
ton and delighted at the benefits
derived from this popular form
Eof government.
We are gratified to know that
the people will have an opportun-
| ity to vote on this proposition at
an election ordered to be held on
Monday, March 10th, which was
requested by a petition OF 2Ol
qualified voters.
The people of Greenwood want
their taxes lowered and they want
the expenses of running the city
government reduced to the low
est minimum, and the only way to
accomplish this end is by the
adoption Of the Commission form
of government.
With three Commissioners on
nominal salaries, and competent
] city manager-who shall be re-
sponsible to the Commission--the
affairs of the city can and will be
run on an economical and satisfac-
tory basis.
The Commonwealth has no
complaint to make against either
of the present city officials. They
are all clever and worthy gentle
men. But what is everybody's
business is nobody ) business
and we are in favor Of confnIng
the responsibility Of the city's af-
fairs to fewer men, and holding
them to a strict account for same
which can and will be done un-
der the Commission form Of gov
eminent.
Read the communication OF the
Good Government Committee
in this paper for details as to the
Commission form of government.
The facts contained therein should
be convincing to the most skepti-
cal individual on this important
question.

KANSAS CITY FLOOD-SWEPT
Rain Falls for Eleven Hours, Flooding
5000 Homes-Two Men and
Woman Are Killed.

Kansas City, Sept. 9.-Many sections
of Kansas City are fiood-swept. Three
thousand homes, it is estimated, were
flooded and several hundred families
were driven from their homes De-
spite the fact that the waters are re-,
ceding there is much danger from col
lapsing buildings.
Two men were killed when they
came in contact with a broken trolley
wire, a number were injured slightly
and numerous thrilling rescues are re-
ported. The total loss is estimated at
about $1,500,000.
Overlooking streams flooded the
fashionable Country club residence dis
trict, the south side along Brush creek,
the east and west bottoms, Sheffield
and other sections. The greatest dam
age was done in the southwestern part
of the city and el Rosedale, Kansas, a
suburb, where the water stood 20 feet
deep in some places.
Telephone service throughout the
city was demoralized and street car
service suspended in many sections.
The rain lasted nearly eleven hours
The body Of Mrs. Sarah Wood was
recovered in her home in the south
western part of the city.

WHEAT ALONE TO Be EXPORTED
Is THIS CoUNTRYS ONLY EXCESS
FOOD SUPPLY.
300,c00,0 600 Bushels for Export-AIT
Other Crops Are Short Says
Federal Report.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Wheat alone
will be an excess in the country's food
supply to be exported to Europe. De-,
partment of agriculture reports indi-
cate that this is to be a short crop
year in every other cereal.
With the largest wheat crop ON rec
ord from present indications 896,000,-
900 bushels, there is prospect that
approximately 300,O00,000 bushels
might be available for export. With
wheat selling at more than s1.10 a
bushel this would cost foreign buyers
$33O,O0O,00O.
1t will be Offset, however, by de-
creased takings of American cotton
abroad. Last year the United States
exported $547, 100000 worth of cotton
but from present indications this
years exports will fall far below that
amount.
1t is pointed out that there will be
little or no corn offered for export
because of the short crop Last year
was also short corn year and a con-
siderable quantity of corn was i'm
ported as probably will be the case
this year.
