Following is an extract from an ad-
dress recently relivered by George
Otis Smith, director of the geological
survey, before the Institute of Chemi-
cal Engineers at Philadelphia:
Four constituents enter into the re-
action that we term industry. Two OF
these, brain and Drawn, are organic
compounds and two are perhaps to be
regarded as inorganic money and ma
terial None of these componentS is
wanting here in the United States and
in fact their abundance affords the
best reason for an optimistic outlook
upon the present industrial situation.
Of these four constituents, labor and
capital and brains are all more easily
transported generally than the crude
materials upon large tonnages of
which the industry must depend. Thus,
cheap coal attracts manufacturers just
as cheap land attracts farmers.
With distribution of raw material is
linked the influence of markets upon
the location of industry. The develop
ment of transportation systems makes
the problem of markets most com
pick one. The industrial independence
of the small community of century
ago has given way to the system I'M
der which your dinner table may rep
resent the tribute from several con-
tinents. Even in a country so diversi-
fled as ours in it's natural bounties
domestic production of everything
consumed is not desirable nor profit
able. Exchange of commodities with
foreign countries becomes necessary
so it follows that industrial independ-
ence is the goal toward which ma
ton should face, but not a goal which
it should have either the intention OF
desire to attain.
How to Increase Prosperity.
! To increase industrial prosperity
this country needs to export finished
rather than crude products and to i'm
port raw materials rather than manu-.
features. 1t is the product Of Ameri-
can labor rather than the bounty Of
our natural resources that preferably
should go into the worlds markets. As
the engineers of America study this
matter of expansion of manufacturing
It becomes evident that the distribu.
ton of raw material and of power Is
the key to industrial opportunities.
Petroleum and natural gas in theil
distribution in some degrees supple
ment coal Thus. the largest oil fielt
both in present production and prob
able reserve is in California, a state
with only negligible coal resources
Taken together, these mineral fuel'
constitute q national asset compare

The war recently raging around
Antwerp brings to recollection many
historical occurrences In connection
with that city's varied existence, says
the Brass World. In 1876 Antwerp
was the richest city on earth and one
of the strongest. The Duke Of Alva,
commander OF SPANS conquerlng ar
mics, made 1t his seat Of power. His
failure to pay his troops stationed at
] Alost caused a mutiny and in the au-
tumn of that year several thousand
Spanish soldiers entered Antwerp and
sacked 1t. From November to NO
vember G, a scene of unimaginable
horror was enacted. AT the end OF the
fighting, the mutIneers had slain 5000
Of the city's citizens and soldiers ana
had seized $15,000,OO0 in money, jew
els and other treasure. The conquer
ors found themselves enormously rich
and proceeded to dispose OF their
wealth In many strange ways. For IN
stance, one private soldier gambled
away 10000 gold pieces In a single
morning. Another more thrifty, fore
ed an Antwerp goldsmith to fashion
his stolen coins into suit of armor,
sword, scabbard buckles, etc. An
ticipating the popularity Of a black
nickel finish, he had his armor, guilt
and guilt begotten, painted black to
look like iron, so that he would not be
robbed. When, months later, he tried
to sell his precious armory, he found
that the goldsmith had made an alloy
and had kept for himself most Of the
gold. Thus has mind always triumph
ed over matter and little knowledge
Of metallurgy proved to be profitable

A CHANGE OF POLICY
MAY Be ADOPTED
NEW MEMBER OF THE UTILITIES
COMMISSION GIVES INTiM.
ALTON OF ATTITUDE.

AS result of the appointment Of
John w. Graham as a momber Of the
public utilities commission there may
be some change In the policies of that
body. Mr.. Graham has some Ideas OF
his own along the line OF work that
the commission deals with.
Regarding his attitude toward mon
opolies, Mr. Graham said that he was
neither for nor against them, speaking
generally. Each individual case" he
said. brings its own problems. In
many cases. in a state such as Idaho,
the existence of monopoly means
that many sources of power will re-
main undeveloped and here we have
almost unlimited use for electric pow

Seeks Development
For instance" he continued, along
the Snake river there are power sites
which, IL developed. would produce
energy in abundance and 1t seems to
me to be unfortunate that they are

parts of the state where this same
condition exists"
Mr. Graham has not removed his
family to Boise. though he came Mon
day to take up his work on the public
utilities commission to which he was
appointed by Governor Haines about
week ago
Sees Opportunity.
II did not care to move my home
here" he said, until was able to be
certain of the future OF the commits
sion. AS far as the salary is concerned
do not find the position unusually
attractive, but believe the members
Of the commission have more power
in shaping the destinies of the state,
in the direction of its growth, than any
other state official and am glad to
have the opportunity of taking part
in the development Of such a state as
Idaho"

PURE FOOD INSPECTOR
WILL CUT EXPENSES
TO MAKE DOUBLE NUMBER OF
INSPECTIONS WITH HALF
THE APPROPRIATION.

j. X. White. who succeeded ]. H
Wallis as pure food commissioner OF
Idaho, will ask the legislature for an
appropriation of $4,000 for the next
two years, just half of the last appro-
/ priaton for similar period. When
asked for an explanation Of how he
would carry on the work of his office
With such great reduction in the ap-
preparation, Mr.. White said he had the
work scientifically planned and his
method is not a theory but based on
practical experience, and the applica
ton of business methods to the oper-
atoms OF the department. He also said
hat under his plan he would make two
Inspections to every one made in the
past two years and that the results OBJ.
aimed would be better sanitary condi-
tons, less misbranded and adultcrated
food products and q cooperative spirit
between evry manufactures, whole
saler jobber, retailer and the pure
God department.
Mr. White explained that his plan OF
checking up on adulterated and mis-
branded food supplies would be done
at the place of manufacture II in the
state and through the cooperation of
wholesalers on goods shipped into the
state.
I'VE know every manufacturer who
hips goods into this state" said Mr.
White, land the jobber through whom
he distributes his goods. have al
ready practically completed arrange.
ments to work through these jobbers
to the end that every article of fooG
handled by them will be inspected be
fore II goes out to the retailer. Those
goods meeting the requirements o.
our law will go on the market an
those adulteratod or misbranded vii
be disposed Of as provided by statute
This method will practically d.
away with the FERROUS inspection o.
retail stores for adulterated and mis-
branded goods, work that takes up
so much of an inspectors time. Thi.
method is antiquated and a duplica
ton of work in every store.
Will Know Field.
1--WE will soon know every brand OF
legal goods on the market and ever!
new one that shows up will be prompt
ly Investigated and listed In Its propc'
class In this wcy 1t will be only
short time until every manufacture
and jobber will be submitting his
goods for our inspection In order that
they may be placed on our inspected
and passed list.
1.-THE matter of sanitary handling Of
food supplies can be attended to BY
local authorities and by a we'll plan
ned system of cooperation with this
department. l have this plan already
worked out and have experimental
with 1t enough to know that 1t Is n
success.

Salaries Too Low.

Within the past month two OF the
most efficient and competent county
Supcrint cndcntS Of education in the
State, Mr.. w r. Bradley, Of Abbcvillc,
and Mr. George l.. Pitts, of I.aurcns,
have resigned their positions in order
to engage in other business The rca-
son assigned is that the salary is in
adequate.
This only emphasizes the fact that
We do not pay our county supcrintcnd-
cnts Of education a sufficient salary to
command the best talent unless these
officers devote a part Of their time to
other business. The duties OF the Of
liccrs demand the entire attention and
time Of even the most competent Off
GERS, but the state could not expect
to secure this without paying a suf-
iicicnt salary for the work.
There are only few Of the coun-
ties in the State in which a living sal
ary is paid. or course, if the super
intcndent Of education only looks up
on the office as q diSburSing office and
simply approves claims and pays an
occasional visit to aschool, he can de-
vote the greater part Of his time to
other work and in that way make a
sufficient amount upon which to live,
but the people should demand the en-
tire service and time Of their super
intcndent of education. and in order
to do so, should pay him a sufficient
salary to warrant competent man in
giving his time to the -Ncwbcr-
ry Herald and News.

CROP SUPREMACY THREATENED.
Principal European Countries are
Spending Millions in Trying to Dc.
yclOp Cotton Industry.

Warrington, Jan. 1.-Warning that
American supremacy in cotton com
merce may be wrested by foreign
countries unless This government
aVails itself Of the full measure Of it's
resources, has been submitted to the
house committee OH rivers and harbors
in advocacy Of the pending bill for
an immediate appropriation Of $12,-
100000, the first installmcnt of the
$4S,O00, 900 proposed by the Mississippi
on the Mississippi.
The warning, voiced by b. +. Bush,
president Of the Missouri Pacific Rail
road, sets forth that the principal
European countries are spending mil
lions of dollars in fostering cotton
culture in their colonies, that the Eng
lish premier recently had a bill passed
appropriating $l5,000,000 for expert
amending in growing cotton in Nhc
Sudan to make the English spinner
independent Of the United States sup
ply.
Mr. Bush asserted, however. that
the United States, "if alive to its op-
portunitics," had nothing to fear and
that the nation should hasten to the
rescue Of he South by meeting the
control of the Mississippi as Il nation
al problem.
He added that lcvcc protection for
the alluvial lands in the Mississippi
delta would add 100000 acres Of
fertile wealth producing area, whose
cultivation in cotton, sugar cane or
diversified crops would yield many
millions Of dollars annually,
Investigation Of the life history and

wants more funds appropriated with
which to employ exports on this

munity experiment in controlling the
boil wccvil. Up to now practically all
the efforts OF the department Of agri-
culture have boon confined to assist

ANOTHER CAUSE or PELLAGRA.
Bad Sewage Now Suggested as One OF
the Causes OF Dread Disease.

Atlanta, Jan. 2.-That pcllagra in
lection probably results from bad
sewerage was II theory advanced in
the report today OF the Thompson-
McFadden pcllagra commission be-
fore the American Association for the
Advancement Of Science.
The report stated that no definite
relation was observed between the oc-
currcncc Of pcllagra and the use of
any particular food. In districts com
pletely equipped with water carriage
systems of sewerage disposal, the re-
port states. very few cases Of pclagra
have been found and their origin has
been doubtful. 1t also was found, ac-
cordng to the report, that new cases
OF pcllagra developed for the most
part in the vicinity OF old ones or after
association with them.
The report declares the exact mode
OF transmission of pcllagra still is un-
certain and urges the continued study
OF insects as transmitting agents, ana
OF close personal association as pos
siDlc Factors in its spread.
