While the possible indemnities to

ent war are being discussed, the Rivis
Ia Politica Parlamentare entertains
I its readers with an estimate of the
weight of a milliard-the unit of all
speculations as to the war debt to be
paid by one great power to another.
A milliard francs, says the Rivista,
weighs in silver 100000 kilogrammes,
in gold 322,5O0 kilos, in bank notes OF
a thousand francs each 1850 kilos,
and in notes of hundred francs each
11,600 kilos. To carry a milliard, as.
Stunning that one man can carry 1OU
kilos, would require: In banknotes OF
a thousand francs, IS men; in notes OF
a hundred, lis men; and in silver,
$4,000 men. A milliard, in thousand.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, JAN. :, 1915.

Natural dyes, made mostly from veg.
etables, plants and wood. were prac-
tically the only dyes known for cen.
turtles. Their gradual disuse in the
last hundred years has been due to
tho discovery that dyes could be made
from coal tar. Largely through ths
experiments Of European chemista
coal tar dyes were made so satisfao
tory a substitute for the natural dyes
that the business in artificial article
soon took on enormous proportions.
Little attempt was made in America
to manufacture coal tar dyes because
tho Europeans possessed patents
which practically gave them control
Of the trade. Germany has long con.
trolled the worlds trade in this bust
ness. One reason for the popularity
of artificial dyes has been the wide
range of brilliant colors in which they
could be had.

condition never before recorded.
Wet weather is still complained
of at hindering the threshing and
movement of winter wheat. The
proportion threshed was never so
small, and injury to quality is con-
siderable.
If killing frosts come before Oct
l there will be a great deal of soft
corn. Corn in the southwest has
turned out better than earlier ex.
pected, but in Iowa, Illinois and in
the northwest the crop is very back
ward. The south will have rec.
ord crop, and will buy less than ev'
er before. A year ago dry weather
in the west necessitated much feed
ing of corn, but this year, with
pastures and roughage crops so good
little will be thus used.

SOME COMPARISONS.

Dubuque Telegraph Sup.
pose Iowa had gained million PEG.
pie in the past ten years. We should
never hear the last of it.
and yet that is substantially
what Holland, little thrifty Holland
gained-the country We have all
looked upon as finished and overdone
at that" says the Des Moines Trib-
une.
Holland, which is just one-ffth
as big as Iowa-Holland has 12,64S
square miles and Iowa 56,147-had
a population of 5,347,190 in 1908
and in 1913 had a population Of e.
I114,3O2.
Suppose Des Moines had gained
100000 population in the past ten
years. We should most certainly new
er hear the last Of that.
And yet that is what Rotterdam,
one of Hollands finished cities gain
ed for Rotterdam had in 1903 a pop
ulation of 34s,474 and in 1913 a
population Of 446,S97.
There is no getting away from
the lesson of these figures and they
show that in ten years Rotterdam
has added practically just such a
city as Des Moines.
ut came as tremendous surprise
to most Americans when they learn
ed that Berlin was gaining in pop
ulation faster than Chicago, and was
doing more in the way of city build
ing than our western metropolis.
1T may be hard to account for the
fact, but the fact is there and it is
a fact well worth considering.
Here is Iowa with its broad ex-
panse of magnificent acres barely
able to hold it's own in population,
and here is Des Moines, the natural
meeting place of SO great state,
making steady but not astonishing
gains, while little Holland with
more than twice as many people on
one-fifth the territory, is going
ahead at a rapid rate, and Hollands
principal cities are growing even
faster.
eff we cannot say anything more
of the situation, we may at least stop
again to exclaim against the Grim
inal folly of this war which is tear

WILL WATCH RESULTS.

Stanhope Enterprise: The city
manager plan was voted on at Web
ster City Monday and it carried by
a two to one majority. This will
put Webster City in line for pa
tient watching, as many towns are
considering the change of leader
ship, but want few more examples
first. The plan is without doubt a
very good one if carried out as it is
meant to be. The county seat will
now have to hold another election
to elect three councilmen. They will
then appoint a man to be manager
of the city. He has full power over
all municipal property.

ing down all that has been so labor
iously built up, and putting a check
upon the evident progress Europe
was making towards commercial
and industrial prosperity.
For no country could grow as
Holland was growing, and no city
could grow as Rotterdam was grow
ing if the general conditions of liv-
ing were not getting better and the
people were not taking a hopeful
view of the future.

NEEDS FIXING,

The idea that a city elects its
councilmen to conduct the city's bus
mess in business-like manner
seems to be joke-at least in
Ames.-Ames Tribune.
That is the way it has been in
Webster City for some time, but the
people of this town have turned ov.
er new leaf and the people OF
Ames ought to do likewise.

party which made A. B. Cummins
the prominent national figure he
now is, and in the senate of Iowa,
with Senator Healy and Garst, the
three carved enduring monuments
for themselves in the legislation
which they led the way in enacting.
Senator Funk was often mention
ed for congress in the Eleventh dis
trict, but he was never successful
because of the factional contests
which divided his party, although
his worth was universally conceded.
The governorship, too, was a prize
that was thought due to his talents
and as a reward for his party SER
vices, but some way in the division
of the honors, the nomination new
er came his way. This was princip-
ally because the Cummins interests
required other arrangements.
Probably in leaving his old time
abode Senator Funk relinquishes
any ambitions that he may have had
for political preferment; he has
made a fine financial success, and
with his home in the state capital
he will be in close touch with his
many scattered friends in Iowa and
will take part in bigger interests
than would be possible in Spirit
Lake. His influence will never be
used there for any cause which his
conscience does not approve.
