THE STATE HIGHWAY
COMMISSIONS NEW QUARTERS

The State Highway Commission,
a department under the state gov
ernment, whose duty it is to look
after the development and general
improvement of our roads, has
new and commodious quarters, in
the state house, on the 9th floor,
a space recently made from the
old unused roof parts in the south
part of the mammouth structure.
The department is fitted out with
every convenience needed and each
person, from the head man to the
chief messenger, has his or her
room or rooms. Messenger Mitch
ell, very able asset to the depart
ment, showed the writer thru and
explained the uses of each room or
suite of rooms and who had charge
of each and his or her work. One
of the best things about these new
quarters is, that there is an abun-
dance of light in every room. A
new elevator has been installed in
the extreme south end of the build
ing and there is no difficulty in
reaching the commission.

WAR DECLARED

The Eastern Capitalists have de
clared war on the Commissioner OF
Public Property through their.ad-
vance guard, Mr. Mackie of the
Springfield Gas and Electric Co.
The Fasteners claim that their
enemy is down on the old Sanga-
non River bottom with a toy AZ
centimeter gun, better known as a
turbine generator, and is shooting
the juice from it into the city where
they are, and have been, camping
for number of years, unmolested;
they also claim he and his Hero
have ordered up in position anoth.
er of these generators, which is
against the rules of modern war
fare, anb now they have gone to
drafting all of their employees to
fight in this great war.
Every public spirited citizen
should watch this struggle very
closely; don't let the Eastern capt.
alists with their big profits of $l29
900 year, deceive you. They will
pay we'll for your work at the polls
and house to house canvas to tell
the voters that all they want is fair
play, and right then they are not
fair with you for the simple reason
you work for the money that you
pay them for the high rates they
charge you for their Gas and Elect
ricity, and they blind you to the
facts by paying you big salary
for those few days cork.
The advance guard, Mr. Mackie,
has brought some of the employees
up in the firing line; with all due
respects to these employees, can
they serve two masters as citizens
of Springfield
This fair play" committee, as
it is,called by Mr. Mackie, is max
ing a desperate effort to persuade
the voters to rob themselves and
to perfect their own plant which
will cost less than $l2, 200.
The voters of Springfield should
make what the New York syndicat-
e makes a luxury, common com.
modify, and a necessity in this
modern age.
SO go to the polls and support
the Mayor and Commissioners in
their wise undertaking which we
once sanctioned. Beware of for
hidden fruit and boost for the gen
-erator and cheaper lights.
