Decides to Seek Reelection as
 Tax Collector in Berlin
HIS RECORD IS. EXCELLENT
Abandoned Auto Still at Roadside Work on Turnpike Bridge Not Paper Goods Excursion to the Rock

Tax-collector Charles F. Lewis of Kensington will be a candidate for reelection to the office which he holds at present. This statement was made yesterday by MT. Lewis when questioned as to whether he would run on the ticket this fall.
 The announcement that, Mr. Lewis Is to run for the office of tax-collec- tor again will be received with keen pleasure by his large number of friends. There has been some talk prevalent about the town that MT. Lewis would not seek a public office again as his business took up so much of his time.
 Mr. Lewis has been the tax-col- lector of Berlin for but one year, suc- ceeding Elmer E. Austin whom he de- feated at election last fall He is considered by most of the people to be one of the best officials that has collected the taxes in this town for many years.
 What opposition that has been nearQ against WIT. LeWlS IS Ol d very petty nature It is that he at pres ent holds responsible position at the American Paper Goods company and should retire in favor of some man who is more in need of the mon- ey.
 Mir. Lewis at present is engaged collecting the taxes of those who have not been prompt. in payment. The taxes already collected this year arc about S5,000 ahead of the amount collected the previous year at ths same date.
 Therc is no fixed salary to the Of flee but the collector is paid on j commission basis. The rCsition is : very lucrative one and t'~rc arc many prominent citizecs NAo have long cast envious eyes at it.

1914 CROP REPORT

Washington, d. C.-Thei crop
reporting board of the Federal
Department of Agriculture has
just made public its estimate OF
the 1914 farm crops Of the United
States. Fourteen crops, covering
3OO,782,000 acres or go per cent of
the nation s cultivated area are in
Guided in the report and the com
bined farm value of all products is
estimated at $4,946,000,000.
Although the 1914 production
of crops is 10 per cent greater
than the previous yea; the aggre-
gate farm value is 500, 000,G00 less.
Both the wheat and the cotton
crops of the nation in 1914 were
the largest on record. The cotton
crop was nearly 100000 bales
and the wheat production was APP
proximately 891,000,000 bush
els. While the 1914 cotton crop
was approximately 100000 bales
more than the one of 1913 the val
ue was $3O6,OOO,OOO less. Cotton
in 1913 averaged $22.20 per acre
against $14.14 in 1914. The yield
per acre in 1914 was Is pounds
more than in 1913 but the price
per pound in 1914 was 6.8 cents
and 1872 cents in 1918.

POTASH IN CALIFORNIA
Searles Lake Offers Most Promis-
ing Source of Supply of Com
mercial Potash Salts in the
United States.

The salt-incrusted valley floor
commonly known as Searles Lake,
in southeastern California, has
lately come into prominence
through the widespread interest
in the search for an available
source of potash in this country
and the apparently promising
prospects this locality affords of
considerable commercial produc
ton in the near future. The es-
innate made three years ago that
that deposit contains 100000
tons of water-soluble potash salts
seems to have been amply con-
firmed by subsequent develop
ments. That this amount of pot
ash salts will actually be pro-
duced and placed on the market
can not yet be considered assured,
but so far as can be judged from
evidence available it seems that
this deposit is the most promising
immediate source of commercial
potash in the United States.
In Bulletin 5S0-L, recently pub
lished by the United States Geo
logical Survey, Hoyt S. Gale gives
a general account of the main fea-
lures of the lake history and the
deposition of the salines through
the drying up of the lake waters.
His report is a preliminary review
based on trips made through this
and other parts Of the Great Ba-
sin in pursuit of the general plan

has been, and without it, is one OF
the problems most difficult of solu-
ton that army men everywhere
have to meet. 1t is treatment
that is finding wide adoption in
civil life, where it is accepted vol
UNFAIRLY because of it's proved eff
ficiency.
When, then, an officer of either
branch of the service, who has re-
ceived free of cost to himself, a
splendid education to fit himself
for special duties, who has a posi-
ton assured for life or during
good behavior and is retired on
ample pension at an age when
men in civil life are still fighting
for their daily bread, refuses to
receive this treatment for the reas-
on that he considers it an invasion
of personal liberty, and when he
regards the welfare and discipline
of his fellow soldiers Of less i'm
portance than his real or fancied
personal liberty, there is strong
suspicion that the service is well
rid of a man unfit to be a good
soldier.
In a wider sense and beyond the
limits of military or naval service,
responsibility is imposed by posi-
ton, by education, by superior OPP
portunity. The grand principle
Noblesse Oblige, the idea of per-
sonal responsibility conferred by
personal advantage, are opposed
to personal selfishness and disre-
gard Of others.

Personal liberty versus person
al responsibility!
Recent news dispatches tell that
an officer in the United States
navy has resigned his position
rather than submit to required
vaccination against typhoid fever.
He regarded the requirement as an
infringement on his personal
rights.
That's his side of it. There s
another side. The war department
insists that every man in the
United States army shall be thus
protected against the disease. The
result has been that in 1913, only
few mild cases occurred in the
army, and not single death from
the disease. The experience OF
the department in the past has
been that typhoid fever is one of
the worst enemies that an army
encounters in active warfare, and
this was proved notably in the
Spanish-American war in 1898.
The United States navy has adopt
ed the same treatment making 1t
compulsory.
1t would be unfair to require &C
ceptance of the treatment by the
private and to Except the commits
stoned officer in either service.

fact that rank ,confers no right to
exemption from discipline.

In the matter Of health and
sanitation there is a responsibility
resting upon the intelligent peo-
pie of Florida, which is neglected
mainly because those upon whom
it rests do not realize it. With
the unmatched conditions that con
serve health and low sick and
death rates, Florida is not preem-
ihent in these respects. Nature
has done everything she could.
Man, through his neglect or ig-
norance is depriving the state of
many of its natural advantages.
How?
By refusing or neglecting to
adopt precautions that ward off
preventable diseases, by permit
ting insanitary, surroundings, by
.neglecting to screen dwellings,
earth closets, and foods by refus-
ing vaccination against smallpox
and typhoid fever, in short by
failing or refusing to follow the
simple instructions Of medical
science that have been demon
strated as effective in a thousand
or a million instances.

acme of its possible perfection, it
will be because the leaders lead
