WEDNESDAY, MAR. ao, 1916.

The action of the city council III voting to place the IlunlclpaI hght anu puiilplng pant anu aIso the GOal } dta question on the on- cal LaIlot at the forthcoming election brings the matter square ly Le1ore the people. II they want the proposed innovations and the possible DenentS to be derived theretrom It IS now plainly up to them to say so. There has been a vast deal of luke warm discus sion over the matter of late but this usually means very little in Nome. We are always long on talk but it usually don't amount to much when 1t comes to show down. Acting is the least impor- tant of our attributes, as evidenc- ed by the repeated failure of pro- jects of progressive and benc- hcial nature which have been developed in the past. We have been ready enough to talk about them in a commendable vein but when it comes to getting in and helping them along we were sad ly lacking. It is therefore not an unfair surmise that the same thing will happen in the pumping plant matter. We are, general ly speaking, ready to admit that the project contains the clements of material benefit to the com munity; we have little doubt that the establishment of a municipal pumping plant alone will effect a material reduction in the civic ex- penses and everybody is more or less convinced that a city coal ward will have very decided ef- feet on their coal bills. We also have a vague idea that the city

 installing plant for street and
 other city lighting. We are ready 10 recognize these things in theory
 but the question is are we willing
 to vote for them and work for
 them with vim and spirit until we
 get them? Are we willingtto dig
 down into our pocket, if need arise
 70 help the several projecsSsalong
 to the point where they become
 realities or do we intend. to- do
 as we have done so often m the
 past-talk about them for a little
 while and run when there is a
 prospect of having to put up
 something? Do we recognize in
 ftle three proposals possibilities
 of sufficient merit to warrant us
 in placing a portion of our bank account to the credit of the city in the event of congress refusing
 to grant us the right to issue bonds for the purpose? Are we ready to show our faith in the
 future of the country and the community by putting up the
 money ourselves in case there is
 10 other alternative?
 Or, do we intend to merely vote for the three propositions laid be- fore us and then leave it up to the council with no intention of carrying the matter farther !. case congress refuses; to give us the privilege of issuing city pa per so that we can get the neces- sary funds from professional money lenders? Also, in case we endorse the several projects, will we get in the collar and work to impress upon congress the great desirability of lending us the as- sistance we ask?
 Will we be able to arouse suf- ncient energy to personally work to show that body that Tn grant ing our request they will be con ferring great benefit on the community That is very likely what we will have to do before we get through and we should make up our minds to it as we'll first as last. If we want the pumping plant, the lighting plant or the coal yard or either of them we will have to get right down to business and work to get them It is little use to place the whole [ flair up to the chamber of com, .eice and the council and then ;orget all about it. If we are con vinced that we can benefit oui- eives by having any or all oi he three it is plainly up to us to every possible effort to the desired end. Every one should behind the movement to bring t to successful conclusion; should be ready to vote for it, work for it and put up the money I need should arise.

Plans Dedication Ceremonies.

Prof. A. J. Dowis is planning for big day for Huttig and vicinity on Friday, January 21, when he ex- poets to hold the dedication eere- monies for the new consolidated district high school.
 It is known for certain that Prof. J. H. Bond and Prof. Torreyson of the state department of education will be here to inspect the school and building and deliver addresses, and each of the four aspirants for the governors office has been in vited to be present but they have not had time to reply.
 It has been suggested that we have a big barbecue on the grounds on this day and make it one long to be remembered in this section of the state. If you will help do this let Prof. Dowis know. A complete program will be printed in next weeks issue, but in the meantime talk the matter up and don't forget to be on hand at the school grounds on Saturday, January IS, to help clean and grade them up.

British Control of Cables

Perhaps nothing has more contribu ted to the commercial supremacy ol Britain than its enterprise with regare to the submarine cable During the last 50 years it has excelled all othe, countries in it's quick communication with the remote parts of the world Europe received its news througt London. When at last foreign coun tries sought to free themselves from this monopoly they had to seek Brit ish aid. France and Germany. desir ing to possess cables of their own be tween their countries and America had to go to Britain to manufacture and to lay the cables for them. II late years factories for the making O, such cables have been established b, Germany at Ordenham, by France al Calais. and by Italy at Spezia. Previ ously almost all the cables of the world had been made on the banks ot the Thames. The foreign manufac tories were started with government subsidies, and the widening of govern ments to the value of cables-untiI few years back the submarine tele graphs were altogether private af fairs, started with money wholly sub scribed by the public-has been re markable. There are at present nc fewer than 2,937 cables, and of thes, various governments own 2,457.

WHAT TO DO FOR LONG LIFE
Man of Seventy Willing to Adopt Any Plan, If He Can Be Assured It
 Is Right One.

T am seventy today" said MT. Sil- vergray, but still hale and hearty and naturally desirous of living as long as l cap. If there were any known, def mite way by which life could be greatly extended l think I should have the grit or the common sense, or both, to follow that course
 But as far as my knowledge goes there is no such absolutely definite course to follow. The people who live to be very old, say ninety-fve, one hun dred, one hundred and five and around those figures, appear to have led all sorts of lives
 One man has always taken his toddy, another is a teetotaller. One man has smoked his head off for ST years, another hasn't smoked since he was ninety-two. One man has always led an easy life, keeping himself as comfortable as possible, never worry. ing and doing very little work, another man has been chopping cordwood since the day he was able to swing an ax and he can fell tree with the best of them now.
 One man has always been very careful about his diet, another has lived, as he still does, on pork and cabbage. There doesn't really seem to be any definite scheme that has been followed by all of these old chaps, but each one seems to have lived any way it happened.
 That is to me rather confusing. ] am myself a systematic, orderly per son, and 1 like to have a plan and follow it. But 1 would dreadfully hate to make mistake.
 T enjoy life enormously, and I'd hate like all gitout to adopt a plan to prolong my life and then find after 1 had got along a piece that had made blunder and really shortened it.
 Would it be best for me to start chopping cordwood right away, oi should I from now on take life easyi Would pork and cabbage be tho

Apache Chief Dead.

Magoosh. supposed to have been the only baldheaded Indian in the world, and the last of the famous war chiefs of the Apaches, ninety years old, is dead He had 20 wives in his time. In February, 1907, two of his wives died within a week of each other.
 Magoosh led his Indian braves at a dozen massacres and in scores of raids. His most serious defeat was at the hands of the Texas rangers, un- der Capt. Daniel w. Roberts, in 1875. The rangers scattered Magoosh's band After abandoning the warpath Ma goosh was a good friend of the white men. He made one trip to Washing ton for a talk with the Great White Father" and to his dying day delight ed in telling his tribesmen of the won ders he beheld on that journey.

The Fertilizer Situation.

As a result of the failure of the last legislature to appropriate money for the printing of tags and the enforcement of the fertilizer inspection law, it is likely that the farmers will not be able to buy com mefcial fertilizer next season. The law requires the Commissioner of Mines, Manufactures and Agricul- ture to furnish fertilizer tax tags to the manufacturers, when paid for at the rate of 25 cents ton. The tag money is paid to the state treasurer and kept in separate fund, and cannot be used for any other purpose except paying the expenses of fertilizer inspection, etc. There is now in this fund $16, ,2o4.z1. When the manufac- turers buy the tags they, of course, add the cost to the price of fertiliz- CT, and indirectly the farmers pay this inspection tax.
 The fertilizer inspection proved good thing and prevented the sale of worthless fertilizers. The law authorizes me to appoint four inspectors to take samples and have them analysed to see if they come up to requirements. How ever, the last legislature failed to make an appropriation from the funds on hand to carry on the work or to print tags. consequently, 1 have been unable to have any in- spection done since March 30, 1915. The fiscal year ended Sept. 30, and after that date new tags for the season of l915-1916 were required. There being no appro- l prlatlon, nave no fundS With which to have the tags printed. The law makes it a fnable offense 1 for an official of the state to buy anything for the state on a credit. l Hence, l am unable to furnish the tax tags. If fertilizer is sold with out tags, it will be a violation of law, punishable by a fine of from $loo to $500. Under these circumstances it is not likely that the fertilizer people will undertake to sell fertilizer.

Round the margin is motto which rather indicates that the first Chinese banker was of Scotch origin It reads: However much you may possess, strive to be thrifty"
