the seventh inning when the BEL

This was a challenge given by
the Belington boys to meet any

The efficiency commission has
finished it's outline of the plan for
recognizing the state government
on business lines. Fixing up
every little detail and making all
the joints match is a job that will
take some time. But unless some
very good reasons are presented
why the commission should change
its mind, the general features
which it is prepared to recommend
are all shaped and fitted. Probab-
ly the commission will meet in the
fall to look over it's plans and pos
sibly revise them. In the mean
time its recommendations will be
laid before the public as rapidly as
possible so that Tom Smith and
Bill Jones and all the rest of us can
discuss them and make up our
minds how we like the idea.
The first thing is, if this plan is
carried out, it will increase eff
cheney. The state ought to get
more for it's money where there is
one government working all to-
gether than where there are sixty
independent governments chop
ping round all over the lot. A
single illustration throws some
light on that. Not long ago there
was a fire in hotel in the south
western part of the state. The
place was visited by hotel inspec-
tor, who issued certain orders. A
few weeks later a deputy fire mar
shall came, who also issued certain
orders. The perplexed proprietor
sat down aud wrote note to the
fire marshal:
Dear Sir: Three weeks
ago hotel inspector ordered
me to put in a new floor. To-
day your deputy orders me to
tear down the building.
Which shall 1 do first?"
Now both these inspectors did
their duty. 1t was glaring case
of inefficiency for something that is
not their fault. The state govern
ment is not efficiently organized.
Putting the government together
will unquestionally add to the
efficiency of its parts.
The plans should be an aid to
