The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1914-10-04

keokuk highly desirable city in
which to live, but we must combine
and coordinate our efforts II we would
make substantial progress along right
lines. Our first duty is to set our
selves right and then cooperate with
others for the attainment Of the de-
sired ends. There are various agen-
cies for this purpose, and it is con-
corning ono Of these in particular that
/ would speak briefly this evening. AS
q representative Of the city govern
ment invite your attention for few
minutes to that phase Of my subject.
We sare, all OF us, 1t seem to me,
prone to think Of government as some
thing separate and apart from us.
This may be true as regards certain
old world governments, but 1t is not
true in this country where she people
govern themselves and where, conse-
quently, every individual is an in
tegral part OF the government. Some
OF us. too. regard government as
something of hardship especially
about taxpaying time Or when we are
ordered to put down new sidewalk,
repair an old one, or are assessed a
good round sum for street paving. 1t
may be admitted In passing that
scarcely any public Improvement is
ordered that does not put some one
to an Inconvenience or inflict q real
hardship, but the public good must
prevail as against personal convan-
Hence or interest and improvements
|are accordingly made, despite vigorous
protests.
Cannot ae Independents.
Civilized people cannot be independ-
ent of each other, and therefore, must
have governments. Let me emphasize
this thought by suggesting TO you what
conditions would be here In Kaokuk
|if government were abolished and
every man was a law to himself. In
that event there would be no police
men for the S-otection Of the public
peace. Every mans life and property
would be at the mercy OF the one
stronger than he. II he wanted police
protection he would have to hire =
policeman at his own expense. To
protect itself against fire every family
would have to own fire engine. But
fire engines would be useless In the
absence Of public cisterns, and water
mains. and the only recourse in case
OF fire would be to carry water in
buckets from the Mississippi river.
There would be no sewers. improved
streets, alleys or sidewalks. In the
absence of public schools. provided by
government, only families wealthy
enough to pay the entire cost OF a
teacher would be able to educate their
children. You will readily see from
these examples that government is an
absolute necessity and that it affords
many important advantages at small
cost that could be obtained in no other
way. AS matter Of fact government
is q greats partnership into which all
the people have entered for the &c
of all. Each. partner is required to
pay certain sum Of money ~ taxes
into the public treasury each year.
With this money the government hires
dons those things that are necessary
for the welfare Of all And l say with
out fear OF successful contradiction
that there is no other money expended
for which people get so much in re-
turn for the money paid for govern
ment -ssa

date for the nomination for. city and
county treasurer, is making a vigorous
campaign and his platform of effici-
ency is relied upon to win him the
nomination in the primary election.
Mr.. Drummond announced himself as
candidate, his friends say, in answer
to the public clamor for men to fiji
public Offices who are businessmen
and know their duties thoroughly. This
demand Drummond is satisfied he can
fulfil both on account of his lifelong
training and his experience in the
treasurer's office as chief assistant to
Col. Mccarthy. ~. ~. .-....
He is making his campaign on the
ground that he will allow no politics
to interfere with the discharge of his
duties, that rigid economy will be prac-
ticed, that he has been tried and found
not wanting in the Office In question.
He has had residence of 20 years in
Honolulu and has discharged his pri-
vate business duties with care and re-
sponsibility. r.. IT,. ...... .

Not until new rays are com
pleted which it is claimed will enable
human eyes to see beneath the sur
face of the earth, will any man know
how the oil under the earth behaves
or why the sands are more prolific
in one place than in another. Up in
the north central part of section 4
in the main portion of the Healdton
field, the Mutual Benefit Oil company
owns three wells which have a pro-
duction Of a little more than 1900
barrels a day. This is not what the
oil men call flush production, for one
or two of these wells have been in
for three months or more, and have
been open every day. The picture of

every day, and for week after week
and for month after month. 1t is one
of the remarkable wells known to the
oil fraternity. We do not want to
get into figures that we can not con-
ceive of, but figure, if you will, 1,SOO
barrels a day for one year, at 75c,
a barrel, which the producers are
promised for their oil. Multiply this
by the number of wells that can be
drilled on a forty-acre tract, and the
gold of Alaska looks small when COM
pared with it.
