SANITARY DISTRICT. GREAT IN
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND
SOUND IN FINANCIAL
MANAGEMENT.

Another additional 1000 lights will
be placed on the streets Of the City
Of Chicago this fall by the Sanitary
District OF Chicago. The purchase Of
two synchronous condensers was au.
thorized at the meeting Of the Board
Of Trustees, held Thursday, June rs.
making the installation Of these ad.
ditional lights possible. Because OF the
peculiar manner In which electricity
travels over wires, at least 1000 h. p.
Of energy has been sleeping" on the
main lire OF the district from Lock.
port to the Terminal station ever
since that line was built. Former
boards never took advantage Of the
advances in electrical science to con-
serve this immense quantity Of vast.
ed energy, but under the new regime
the recommendation Of the electrical
engineer for this Improvement was
quickly acted upon, with the result
that within a very few months the
condensers will be installed, this en-.
ergy will be awakened. and Chicago's
dark spots will be frightened. The
condensers were purchased at cost
Of }Ss, 900 and will pay for themselves
inside OF two years by reason OF the
sale of the now wasted energy.
The new type Of nitrogen lamps. OF
which $4,000 were ordered, will be
delivered on July 6, and installation
will begin as soon as they can be
carted to the points where they are to
be placed. All OF them will be In
position by the time the dark months
come around and Chicago's dream OF
becoming the best lighted city In the
world will soon be realized.
A discussion at this meeting Of the
placing OF the Sanitary District FUNDS
brought forth information that In the
last year the District has earned more
money on deposits than In any other
year in its history. Notwithstanding
the fact that its bank balances we're
not as large as they had been In the
past. II was also shown that the Dis
trict Is earning higher percentage
rate OF interest than any other mu'
nicipality in this section OF the state.
On It's checking accounts 1t Is receiv'
ing 2 per cent, while on Its time de-
posits 3 per cent Is received. This
Is higher by one-half per cent than
the rates earned by the City OF Chi
cago. and when the immense FUNDS
of the District are taken into con-
sideration means an enormous income
10 the taxpayers. 1t was also disclos'
ed that no funds Of a municipal body
are better protected than those OF the
Sanitary District, the bond OF the
treasurer being nearly twice the
amount OF cash In banks.

In view Of such upanimity among

interesting to know whom Roger G.
he has to beat for the Democratic
nomination for United States senator.
On his return from an auto tour Of
Sahgamon county recently, Mr.. Sui.
Ivan was asked by the Record:
"How do you believe the various
senatorial candidatee will fnish?'
He answered: e."
II am convinced that will be the
nominee. believe that Secretary
Of State Harry Woods will finish
second and Mr.. astrinser third
Asked for the basis Of this premise.
MIR. Sullivan explained that from his
observation. Of conditions in nearly
0ne.half Of the counties Of the state
his deduction was that Harry Woods
would get more down state votes than
any Of the down state candidates.
II am convinced that Mr.. Stringer
will not get as many votes in Cook
county as Ben Caldwell received
when he was candidate for the
gubernatornal nomination two years
ago." concluded Mr.. Sullivan.
Mr.. Caldwell got less than 10000
votes In Cook county.

CANNOT HELP PROJECT

which we now could put into any new

Jects which are hanging in the air; SO

PLEASED WITH FACTORY
Harry Lauder, Inspected Ford Motor
Works.

Detroit, Mich.-Harry Lauder, the
| famous comedian from the land of
heather, oatmeal and bagpipes, made
a thorough inspection of the great
! factory of the Ford Motor Company,
| Detroit, the other day and whatever
is the Scotch equivalent of This is
some plant" Mr. Lauder used it in
| paying his respects to Mr.. Ford
Mr. Lauder was accompanied by his
wife, his manager, William Norris, and
his band of Scotch pipers dressed in
kits, and the presence of this rather
picturesque party stirred up consid-
cradle excitement in Highland park.
In fact so impressed was the motor
man of Woodward avenue street car
when he saw Mr.. Lauder, Mr.. Ford
and the gay pipers inspecting the ex-
terror Of the plant. that he forgot he
was about to cross the railroad track,
nd Just escaped crash with freight
train by matter of inches.
Mr.. LADDERS pipers gave one of
their shrill and exhilarating concerts
in the lobby of the Ford office building
to the delight of all who got within
hearing distance. Then under the per-
sonal guidance of Mr.. Ford, the come
dian and his pipers made a tour of in
spectlon through the vast buildings.
Naturally the funniest man who ever
came out of Scotland was greatly i'm
pressed by all that he say, the bigness,
the multiplicity of machines and men,
the system and SO on, but he was also
impressed by the fact that his pipers
tailed to clog the system in the least.
Inc Workmen continued to operate
thelr machines apparently not know
ing the famous Lauder and his party
were anywhere around and Ford cars
grew just as steadily as before.
Mr.. Lauder remained three hours
with Mr.. Ford Throughout the en-
tire tour of inspection a moving pic
ture machine followed the comedian
and his party, and some excellent and
unusual films were secured,
