 The average peon regards the phe- nomena. of Dominican political life with the same mixture of fear and fa- talistic melancholy as he does the earthquakes and hurricanes which now and then lay waste the land.

Of the water uaaia on Sugar street, and do 1t instanter, so as to p1acate this new boroughite who seems to have the law at his back and do it before he springs a surprise on the rest of the old timers in the borough.
 Meantime the public sentiment Is growing that no more hydrants will be put up just to make it easy for the Water company, as has been done in the past, but that all hydrauts to be erected hereafter will be in response to a. demand from unprotected sec- tioiis of the borough, the majority Of whose taxpayers favor 1t. So 1t looks at this writing that the scheme to put in nydrants on the proposed new line of main extension will have hard sledding at the next borough meeting The two neighbors of Mr. Clark will vote against hydrants, but have no objection to the public water there.

Platt was thrown from his seat in front of the knives which made a circular incision on the heshy part of the arm clear to the bone as he was rolled along in front of the mRchine The shock of the horses striking the cart Frightened the oxen, which backed up, overturning the cart and throwing the boy into the gearing, of the machine. Helpers in the field grasped the teams and the boy was lifted out. MT P1att was able to get up, and go to his home, a short distance. The boy was carried to the house. A physician sewed up the cut on MT. P1att's arm, and he thinks the bone is not seriously frac- tured or cut. The son had many con- tusions, but is not seriously hurt. NEWsY ITEMS.

The plan, in brief, is to increase the weight of the dollar so as to compen- sate for the fall in it's purchasing power; that is to say, just as fast as a grain of gold loses it's purchasing power, put more grains of gold in the dollar so as to make up the purchasing power again.
 Turn the thing around. Have gold affected by it's increased supply Let the increased supply of gold reduce the price of gold instead of increasing the cost of living
 Professor Fisher declared the high cost of living is due to one or more of five cauSes-an increase in the amount of money in circulation; an increase of deposits subject to check; an increase in the velocity of circulation of money; an increase in the velocity of deposits subject to check, or an increase in the volume of trade

COUNTY BOND
 CASE ARGUED
Important Matter Before Supreme Court from Yav- apai County - Right of Supervisors to Call Bond Election Questioned

The contention was made before the supreme court of the state yes terday by II. II. Lnney, counsel for John J. Hawkins, and oy Daniel F. Parks, of counsel amicGs curiea, that the county supervisors of Yavapai county had no legal right to call d bond election in that county for the purpose of supplying funds for the erection of q court house. unless the bonded indebtedness of the county already reaches four per cent or more of the taxable valuation in the county that under the constitution and statutes such q right does not exist until after the four per cent limit has been reached.
 The contention of the supervisors made by Attorney General Bullard and P. w. OSullivan, county attor- ney for Yavapai county, was that the people of the county. by initia- tive petition had the right to initiate a petition for such an indebtedness even though the limit of four per cent had not been reached The contention was supported by the statement that if the people had the right to the exercise of the greater power they most certainly had the right to exercise the lesser.
 All this contention grew out of a proposed bond election for $250. 900 for new court house for Yavapai county. a matter which came up in
 the Mile High city some time back.
 An initiative petition containing the | required number of voters sigma
 lures, was filed with the supervisors,
 calling for the election to vote bonds
 for the court house. Immediately Judge Hawkins filed an application | for a restraining order before the superior court there on the ground
 that the bond election was not ne
 cessary and that the supervisors had | no right to call such an election on

WOULD CHANGE DOLLARS
 VALUE
Economist Criticizes the Present Yard
 Stick of Commerce

There could not be any more un- scientific yard stick of commerce than the gold dollar. I don't mean that the silver dollar would be any better, or that an iron dollar, or d tin dollar. or a platinum dollar or a radium dollar would be better. The one ideal dollar would not be dependent on one metal or one commodity, but one which rep resents the same average purchasing power over all things
 Prof. Irving Fisher, head of the de- partment of political economy at Yale, voiced this criticism of the gold dollar in an address before the chamber of commerce at a noon luncheon, but inn mediately suggested a change which he said would remedy conditions and do much toward solving the living cost problem.
 My proposal" he continued, 'is to standardiZe the dollar, to do for money what we have done for every other magnitude, to have a unit of value that shall be a unit of value of purchas- ing power. and not a unit of weight.
